I died... and I'm green now?!

Chapter 10: Jingle Village Part 1



Piccolo flew for what felt like only a few hours.

And given his top speed?

... Yeah that checks out.

He landed in the snowy mountains and made his cloak insulated and made sure his gi was thicker and had long sleeves. He was not going to freeze here like Piccolo almost did in the show.

Looking around he began to walk with his weights at 3 tons. Limiting his power he can gather for fighting to a maximum of 4000. Not much by the shows standards but for earth?

Not much could threaten him around here.

He kept walking as he thought, ugh how do I work through what my stepdad put me through?! I barely put it into the back of my mind thanks to Kami and now?! It got brought back due to my giant form! Damn triggers! I need to clear my head and meditate somewhere to get rid of this feeling...

He walked until he smelled something cooking. Thinking he found a place he could grab a bit eot eat and some fresh water he went over.

He found a small village, maybe 3 dozen hutd or so with a cafe, hotel, and small market. It was the the biggest village but it worked for him to have privacy while also having a good amount of people to interact with and get more social.

Heaven knows his old self kept a small friend circle and so he was awkward when making new friends.

He walked towards the cafe area where he smelled the cooked food. When he stopped as he keen hearing picked up that many people were hiding inside. Their breathing was muffled and they seemed to be breathing in scares little huffs of breath.

He hummed and turned his hearing to the village, then he heard it, a small scream.

Then as he began to dash towards the sound he heard a series of shock sounds and a few gunshots. He went full bore, kicking up a cloud of snow all over the nearby buildings, but he wasn't about to let that stop him from saving someone.

He stopped at the Town square where he saw a trio of villagers tied up and gagged with about 15 men in military uniforms with a red arm band sporting a pair of mirrored white Rs.

Piccolo growled as he saw remnants of the Red Ribbon army.

He was beginning to lose his cool as he saw android 8 on the ground. Smoking from shocks and some bullets that hit him from the high caliber guns the soldiers were using.

Piccolo sensed out and the average soldier was about 30 power level. Must have been some elites that escaped Goku's raid of the compound.

He saw a man in a butcher uniform, a hunters garb, and... Was that Suno?!?!

Piccolo all but crushed the wall he was hiding behind causing cracks to appear all over the surface.

He growled as he heard the soldiers giggling and chuckling, "Man! Glad you guys broke the hunting pact we had!"

Another with a desert eagle still point at eighter was laughing, "Yeah! To think you got so desperate for fresh meat you would come waltzing right into our turf! Pretty stupid!"

Their leader with a Captain badge and a heavy duty machine gun came forward and stared down at the trip of bound civilians, "Yep and to think... You Suno? You who started the pact would be the one to break it?! Hahahahah!! Oh man too bad you worked with the wrong soldier to try and pull the wool over our eyes! Bring him out!"

A soldier who looked young was dragged out and dropped into the snow in only some insulating shirt and pants. His gun and uniform are gone and he ends up shivering like crazy.

Suno lets out a muffled scream of worry as the soldiers begin to kick and spit on their former comrade.

The captain continues, "Now... I'm going to count to ten, and if you don't give us something in return for the 3 rabbits you all hunted in our turf? Well..." He eyes Sunos form up and down, "We will need to take some compensation for ourselves then!"

He begins to reach for Suno. The girl closes her eyes to endure what is about to happen in order to help her village when suddenly the captains hand lands on her lap... Then falls off it.

She opens her eyes in shock as she looks down at the hand if her soon to be assailant... Missing the same and body it used to be attached to.

She looks up to see the captain screaming in pain and shock as his bloody stump stains the snow red beneath him.

Looking to the side she sees a man in a white cloak, purple clothing under it, and green skin scowling horribly at the soldiers around them. Promising them pain and death.

Piccolo suddenly blurs from her sight and is seen back handing away the three soldiers kicking the downed man. Then kicking away the 4 that were around her android friend.

All of them fall to the ground with broken necks or shattered ribs that pierced their own lungs or hearts.

Piccolo turns to the remaining 7 soldiers and one captain and says, "Listen up you bastards! I am giving you one chance! Leave! Or else!"

One soldier fires their machine gun on him but the green man is already gone. The soldier grunts in confusion, before his head is missing and his body clumps to the ground headless.

Now in the same spot Piccolo drops the head and says, "Well you can thank your friend in the after life... He used up your chance!"

The soldiers all go to fire but Piccolo simply flings his hand out with tiny bursts of 100 powered ki bullets at his dinner tips and head shots the remaining standing soldiers.

The Captain is in disbelief as he lies in the snow still clamping onto his right arm as he is bleeding out. He sees the embodiment of death approach him and gulps as Piccolo then squats down and says, "I'll end it here for you... But only after this!"

Using the mind magic he and Kami has he inserts his pain of loss, his betrayal, the grief and despair he felt and amplifies the Captains sense of hopelessness and his pain up by 100 times.

The captain falls over with a foaming mouth, rolled up eyes, and a stopped heart.

Piccolo seethes as his usage of his own memories has made him remember then with full clarity.

He goes to Suno and the others and cuts them loose.

Then comes over to Eighter. Sees his internals are not fully organic, and uses his material magic to repair and replace his damaged parts. Making sure to feed him a senzu bean he had on hand to repair the organic parts.

He turns to see the men are looking at him in fear and respect while Suno has wide eyes full of gratefulness and awe.

He smirks a bit before wincing in pain as his memories are threatening to over take him and make him have a trauma episode. He flies off to the nearby to keep to himself and work through this episode.

Suno goes to Eighter and the other villagers come out to help clean up the bodies and take their guns for their local militia. While the table of the Green man who punishes evil spreads.

Suno makes a promise to herself as Eighter regains his senses and notices he is fully healed that she would come to the Green man and thank him for this.
