A blue glow surrounded the damaged young woman as Dende healed her. It took him a few
minutes, but you could see the wounds begin to heal and eventually fade as he restored her.
There was one scar, however, that remained. It was a long stripe on her upper right-hand forehead
and looked as if it had been there for quite a while.

Dende sat the woman upright and fed her a senzu bean to restore her strength.
She bolted into conciousness immediately and jumped up.

"Who are you?! And what am I doing here?" she asked anxiously as she stared at the
short green boy.

"Whoa, take it easy." Dende answered. "My name is Dende, I'm the guardian of the earth."

"You're green."

"Well, yes, that tends to be a characteristic of Nameks."

Piccolo snorted at the girl's stupidity.
She turned her head rapidly at the noise. "It's you......." she trailed off. "You saved me!"
she said as she walked up to him and stood face to face with Piccolo.

He backed up a few steps and folded his arms. "Yeah, you're welcome." he muttered.

She touched his arm gently and smiled at the Namek warrior. "So, you must be a 'Namek' too. I've never seen anything
like you two before."

Piccolo cringed at her touch and tried to swat her away. "Well, you don't get too many of us on Planet Earth.
Tell me, what happened to you?" he inquired as to her condition before the healing.

The girl looked towards the ground, "It was him." she said solemnly.

"Woman! As if I know who 'he' is! I don't even know YOUR name."

"Gomen. My name is Zenya. And he is, is, is An unspeakable monster." she faltered.

"Who?!" Piccolo growled, becoming impatient with the girl.

"Juunana-gou." she whispered.

Piccolo and Dende's eyes went wide at her words. "#17? I thought he was dead! And how do YOU know about him?"
Piccolo accused.

"I am. I am his sister." Zenya stuttered.

"NANI?!!!!! HIS SISTER! That's not possible! #18 is the only sister he has."

"No, it's true. I am his younger sister. I remember when they took James and Tara away from me. They took our parents
too. That Evil Dr. Gero took my entire family and turned them into robots! He didn't get me because I was at my friends
house that day." Zenya finished and began to cry.

"There there." said Dende as he patted her on the back.

"Enough! Tell me, why your own brother would beat you up like that?" Piccolo demanded for more information.

She looked up at him with teary eyes and Piccolo's stern expression softened immediately.
"Because, I wouldn't become one of them."

"An Android?"

"Hai. Juuhachi has turned from evil now, she's happy with a husband and daughter."

"Yes, I know that." Piccolo interrupted her. "Krillin is one of my friends.

"Really? Wow. Anyway, Juunana-gou was revived by the wish after the Cell games and has been hiding out ever since.
He returned to Gero's lab, or what was left of it, and began to salvage parts. He figured out a way to upgrade himself
and he discovered all the secrets of his past. Juuhachi could somehow remember me but Juunana needed a little help and
when he found out he had another sister, he searched for me in order to convert me into an Android also. Juunana has plans,
big plans for this world. His anger is getting the best of him and I'm afraid an uprising will occur."

"Well, we can't let him find you. Do you have a place to stay?"

"Iie. I was staying at Kame House with Juuhachi and family, but Junnana will surely look for me again there."

"Hey, she can stay with us!" Dende suggested excitedly.

Piccolo rolled his eyes "I was thinking more along the lines of Capsule Corp." he told the guardian.

"Awwwww come on Piccolo! It'll be fun to have someone new around."

Piccolo sighed and looked over at the girl. She was pretty, that he had to admit. And there was something about her that
made him feel the need to protect her. He had defeated Android 17 once and he was sure he could do it again. "Well, allright.
Zenya, you can stay with us."

She jumped for joy and ran over and hugged Piccolo tightly. "Piccolo, right? I heard Dende say it. Thank you!"

"Er, you're welcome." he said as his body tensed up. He wasn't used to being touched by
anyone, let alone a woman. He looked down at her and saw her smiling face and his body relaxed. He gave her a quick smirk
and patted her on the back.

(DID I JUST SEE THAT?) Dende thought unbelievingly (Piccolo is letting that girl hug him and he even TOUCHED her back and
SMILED! Ah, this will make some good teasing material later on.)

Later the evening, Zenya was standing at the edge of the lookout, looking down at the world below.
Piccolo was watching her from in the shadows, and wondering about her. (I wonder how old she is. She looks to be about 19
or so. I wonder what her number would be if she was an android. They've already used all 16-20. I shouldn't even think that!)

The clouds parted up in the dark sky, revealing a glowing moon. The light fell on Zenya's face and she looked up and it
and smiled. She continued to gaze at the moon and a laugh escaped from her lips.

Piccolo slapped himself on the forehead as he saw it. (Darn, I thought I destroyed the moon. I hope that none of the Saiyans
grow back their tails and decide to destroy the planet.)

Zenya had heard the slapping noise and she startled and looked behind her. Slowly, her eyes adjusted and she could make
out Piccolo's form in the shadows.

"Hi....." she said to him.

Piccolo didn't answer her, but just walked out from the shadows and stood next to her.

"Nice night, isn't it?" she said a bit shyly. If he didn't know any better, Piccolo could've sworn that he saw her blush.

"Yeah. Zenya, you never told me what happened to your parents."

She fell silent for a minute and then spoke tentatively: "Well, Dr. Gero also tried to convert them to androids. However,
he failed. They were like an experiment gone horribly wrong. Their bodies wouldn't take to anything he tried and he was
forced to.................terminate them." she finished and a sob escaped her lips. She couldn't contain herself and began
weeping on Piccolo's shoulder.

He felt that the only right thing to do was to comfort her, and before he knew what happened he was holding her in his arms.
As she continued sobbing he looked down at her and noticed how much she looked like her brother. The same straight,
dark hair only longer. Those piercing ice-blue eyes and even her facial features. She was wearing baggy black pants,
a black tank-top shirt and a purple scarf around her neck.

Zenya stopped crying and looked up at Piccolo. "Thank you Piccolo-san. You don't mind if I call you that, do you?"

"Sure. Now you should get some sleep. You've had a hard day."

"Right. Goodnight." she said and went inside the house on the lookout.

"Goodnight, Zenya-chan........." he whispered after her not thinking she heard.
However she had. And smiled to herself.
