B: Krillen had stared at Nexus, shocked he didn't rat him out to Bardock. Even before he could utter a word or nod, he was shoved out of the home and outside, getting his ass chewed out. He knew Nexus was right. Who knew what would happen if Bardock had woken up? But as soon as it started, it ended and Nexus walked away. Krillen just covered his chest, feeling stupid for making such a dumb mistake. "Thank you..." he had turned then, to go on home just as Bardock opened the door, back in his usual Armour and bandanna. Bardock looked surprised at first, raising a brow, "You look like you shot your own pet. What's with you?"<br/><br/>Krillen shook his head, forcing a dumb smile, "Who me? Nah, I'm cool. Well, I'll be going. Oh, Gracie went to go play with Goten. She asked me to tell you." He turned again.<br/><br/>"What's your hurry?" Bardock sounded slightly suspicious, "Why are you and Nexus lying through your teeth?"<br/><br/>"N-No lying.." he once again looked nervous, "I... I mean, I just-"<br/><br/>"Wanna spar?" Bardock's expression never changed, but his head tilted questionably.<br/><br/>"Huh? Oh.. sure. But I'm.. you know, not as strong as Goku or Piccolo... or anything.."<br/><br/>"Fine. Neither am I."<br/><br/>---------------------<br/><br/>Piccolo watched from the shadows as Nexus trained by himself. Dressed in only his darkened Gi suit and his orange shoes, he crossed his arms over his chest. He studied his technique, trying to find a clue to see what he was hiding, or a weakness. But so far, he found nothing, of course. Nexus was careful, he realized, and made sure he showed no weakness. But Piccolo knew... everyone had a weakness.<br/><br/>Piccolo first realized he had enjoyed Nexus' little strip show. His mouth pulled up to a smirk as he got down to his pants and barely anything else. Once Nexus fell asleep, however, is when he finally moved, lowering himself from the air and onto the ground, feet away from Nexus. Piccolo could hear his soft breathing, his chest moving up and down in rhythm. He slowly circled Nexus on that rock, looking him from all angles. His perfect body, smooth-looking skin, well-toned muscles.<br/><br/>Piccolo could feel a burning deep inside him. What was this feeling? He'd only felt it once before, years ago when he was training Gohan. The boy had been 12 at the time. Piccolo reaches out, a finger tracing down Nexus' skin of his stomach and he gently scraped his fingernail over it. He left no mark, but he just wanted to touch him a moment.<br/><br/>Piccolo then reached out, shaking Nexus to wake him, "Hey. You called?"<br/><br/>PAGE 6:<br/>M: It was day time, the sun was out, the air was warm, and Nexus was alone. He always was. Out in a field of grass, surrounded by trees if different colors, he trained, practicing how to better control his fire. Or in his case, his curse. Hands bare, he stared at the fire dancing around his skin, gently flickering and flaring up now and then. Closing his eyes, he takes a deep breath, the flames growing even larger.<br/><br/>Raising one if his fire covered hands, he proceeds to throw a huge ball of fire at a tree, using just his mind to direct it, his eyes still closed. Of course, it hits the target, sending the tree up in flames. Smirking in satisfaction, he does not expect anyone to be around, until much later that day, as he'd been planning to train with someone. Things however, do not always go as planned.<br/><br/>Once again, he raises his hand, fire flaring up, when someone calls out to him. "NYX!!!" Startled, he sends the blast he'd been aiming for the tree in the direction of the voice, and then hears a scream. His eyes open wide, and horror is etched on his face. Only now did he recognize that voice! "Rexyl!" He runs over to where he'd thrown the fire, and sure enough, there was Rexyl, a young boy, with dark brown hair, and singed clothing, laying on the ground, blood everywhere.<br/><br/>Reaching down, his hands shaking, he knew there was no way the kid survived that hit. Trembling, he picks the boy up up into his arms, and holds the lifeless body to his chest, tears flowing like the rivers from his eyes, though not a single sound could be heard from his lips. 'Rexyl, what have I done to you? Oh Domull, I'm so sorry, forgive me, please!' He rocks back and forth, heart breaking as he knelt there.<br/><br/>Then, he felt a grip on his shoulder, and he looked back into a face he'd thought he'd never see again, nor wanted to. "Brother, I never knew you'd do something so low as to kill a kei-soi. It's just not like you, you usually cherish them so much! But then again, people change I guess...Because of this, you have to redeem yourself. You may be the strong one, but you're also cursed. Maybe if you do this, you can make up for that flaw." He hands Nexus a piece of paper, and then just smirks, before walking away. Nexus stares after him, his eyes flaring up. "BASTARD!"<br/><br/>In his dream, he felt a hand shaking him, and he automatically grabs it, his grip tight, and the instant his hands touch flesh, the place he touches begins to get hot, burning. Steam rises from it, and after a moment, his eyes fly open. "BASTARD!" He was breathing hard, his heart pounding in his chest, and tears were flowing down his cheeks, and he was visibly trembling. He look up, and when he saw it was not his brother, but Piccolo, he pulls his hand away.<br/><br/>"P-Piccolo...it's...just you...ugh...don't scare me like that." He sighs in relief, but then looks at the arm he'd burnt, regret in his eyes. He bites his lip, and looks away. "S-sorry." He murmurs, reaching up to wipe away the tears from his face, which sizzle and turn to steam.<br/><br/>B:<br/>The minute Nexus had grabbed Piccolo's arm, he tried to pull it away. However, he still saw everything. The sizzling on his arm didn't phase him but in those few seconds, he saw the whole dream... smelled the burning flesh... god, the tormented scream. When Nexus finally let go, Piccolo fell to his knees, then to his hands, holding himself up.<br/><br/>'That's what you're hiding...' Piccolo spoke to himself, unable to raise his head for a few minutes. 'It's hard.. I know this. We're more alike than you think, Nexus.'<br/><br/>Piccolo grunted, finally rising up to his knees, and he looked at the mark on his arm. Nothing. He didn't mind the burning, he'd snuck up on him, after all. "I'm fine."<br/><br/>Piccolo rose to his feet now, crossing his arms over his chest as he leaned against the rock. A few minutes go by before he spoke again, his voice monotone, but not uncaring, "Nightmare?"<br/><br/>M: For a moment he just remained sitting on the ground, watching as Piccolo got up. Even though Piccolo said he was fine, he still felt bad for burning him. Trying to calm his nerves, he leans his head back against the rock, and eventually his heart stops racing, and his breathing was back to normal.<br/><br/>Hearing Piccolo's question, he grimly smiles, before standing up as well, brushing off his pants. "Memory...a very bad memory." He glances at Piccolo, wondering for a moment why he was there, then he remembered from earlier, he tried contacting him.<br/><br/>"I guess you got my message?" He asks, reaching up for the gloves that he'd taken off, which were sitting up on top of the rock they were by, and which Piccolo was leaning against. "You're probably wondering why I contacted you. Thing is, I want to ask a favor. Would you mind sparring with me?" He hoped Piccolo would agree. "Don't worry, I won't end up asking you to kill me or anything..."<br/><br/>Proceeding to pull the gloves on, he flexes his hands for a bit, so the fabric fit comfortably on his hands. When they were situated, he wipes the rest of his tears away, and forces a smile on his face. "So, what do you say?" He reaches out, as if about to place his hand on Piccolo's arm, but then hesitates, and lets his hand fall to his side.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo watched Nexus carefully. How he was very careful with his words and actions, how he tried to use that smile to cover his emotions, and how his heart was still racing, even after trying to calm himself down. "Memory, huh?"<br/><br/>Piccolo only half heard what Nexus was saying. The scream was echoing inside his mind. He was only a child... what was his name? Rexyl... that was it. Piccolo then turned his eyes to Nexus, who seemed as if he was waiting for an answer, and all Piccolo could say was, "It wasn't your fault."<br/><br/>He didn't know why he said it, but for some reason Piccolo felt that Nexus needed to hear it from someone else, "What happened to your friend... it was not your fault."<br/><br/>He pushed himself from the rock, slowly closing the gap between them. Once he did, he reached up, lightly putting his hand under Nexus' chin, and gently pulling it to look at him, "I don't know who he was, or why he was there.. but you don't need to carry this on your shoulders. Ease your heart and soul knowing that it was an unfortunate accident... and more importantly, Nyx... it was NOT your fault. If you want.. I can take it away, and leave you with the remaining good memories. The choice is yours."<br/><br/>Piccolo knew what he was doing as he leaned over, softly pressing his lips to the others. While he did so, he transferred the good memory of Nexus a couple of weeks ago, laughing with the rest of the group. The memory intending to remind him he was among friends. But in the midst of the kiss, Piccolo also released his thoughts, allowing Nexus to see how he watched him from the trees and shadows. More importantly, how he looked at him. Piccolo pulled away a moment later, opening his eyes to see the others reaction.<br/><br/>M: He looked at Piccolo, who had spoken up, saying it wasn't his fault. What wasn't his fault? He was just about to ask this, when Piccolo continues. His eyes widen a bit, as he hears what was said to him, his already racing heart beginning to speed up even more. "H-how do you...?"<br/><br/>His breath catches in his throat when suddenly Piccolo was standing in front of him, holding his chin up, so they were staring into each other's eyes. It was like he was frozen in place, his limbs numb, all he could do was stand there, fixated in place by Piccolo's strong gaze. He wanted to move, to escape, but his leg would not obey him. Why, why was Piccolo saying these things?<br/><br/>Hearing the offer that was made, to forget the bad memories, to have them erased for good, leaving onky the good memories behind. Softly, he begins to shake his head, and right as he was about to speak, Piccolo cuts him off, pressing his lips against his own, memories flooding from Piccolo to Nexus, his eyes wide, his cheeks burning red. Not only did he see the memory of that day, but also some of Piccolo's own memories.<br/><br/>The kiss ends, and all Nexus could do was stare, face aghast, cheeks bright red, his red eyes wide with shock and confusuion. If his heart rate had been fast before, it was nothing compared to how wild it was racing in his chest now. He felt like he couldn't breathe, like his lungs were being squeezed, and all of the air forced from within him. His knees felt weak, and his stomach felt like he'd swallowed half a million butterflies, which were still alive and flying around inside of him.<br/><br/>Trying to say something, all he could do was stutter, incoherent words tumbling from his lips. Finally he feels his limbs again, and he turns quickly. His hand goes over his mouth, and he squeezes his eyes shut. For a moment he remains like this, until he lowers his hand slowly to his side, his body still trembling, but not from his memories this time. Clearing his throat lightly, he glances at Piccolo.<br/><br/>"I...uh...n-never thought you'd... er...do something...like that..." Or show such things to him for that matter. "B-but, wh-why like that?" Only recently had he learned about the Earth custom of kissing, and how it was used to show affection, and some of the other ways it was used. Like greeting someone. Nexus never imagined someone would end up kissing HIM too, and by Piccolo for that matter.<br/><br/>B: "Shut up." Piccolo leaned over again, pressing his lips back against Nexus' lips again. This time both hands grasped the sides of the others face, holding him gently, but deepening the kiss even more. After a few moments he pulled away again, his own heart beating fast. Why he was doing this, he wasn't sure. But its what He needed, what he wanted, what he craved.<br/><br/>Before he knew it, he pulls Nexus into him, pulling him down for yet a third kiss, now allowing the other to be above him.<br/><br/>M: "P-Piccolo?!" He gasps, as the other tells him to shut up, before pulling him into another kiss, this one deeper than before. He felt like he was going to melt right there, turn into a puddle of molten flames. He could feel Piccolo's heart pounding as well, wondering why the heck this was happening. Sure, he'd seen the images and such that Piccolo had shown him, but...why?<br/><br/>As he was pulled against Piccolo, he doesn't resist, doesn't struggle, how could he? He could barely feel his body as it was anyways. He didn't get a chance to speak yet again, as once more, his lips were pressed against Piccolo's lips for a third time. Not really sure what he was doing, he just went with the flow.<br/><br/>Eventually the third kiss ends, and he reaches up, placing his hand over Piccolo's mouth, before he could move in for a fourth. He stares into Piccolo's eyes, his red eyes searching for an answer in Piccolo's eyes. Of why this was happening. "Wh-why are y-you doing this?!? I-It makes no sense...wh-why? When...when did you-?" He wanted to ask when Piccolo started seeing him like this, but couldn't get the words out of his mouth.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo smirks softly, peeling Nexus' hand from his mouth, "Does it matter? I want what I want.. and usually I get what I want." His hips thrust up softly, grinding against his as one of his arms wrapped around Nexus' waist. Then, he used both to pull him up, both knees against the boulder as Piccolo stood against it still, holding him up, "I can pull back if you prefer, but from the way your body is reacting, I doubt you want that." He thrust his hips up again softly, "As for why..." he shrugged, "Don't know. Don't Really Care. So why not? Unless you're wanting to have someone else. Do you want someone else?"<br/><br/>M: "O-oh of c-course it mat-nnnghh..." He whimpers mid sentence as he felt Piccolo suddenly grind softly against his hips, his skin shivering as he felt Piccolo's arm wrap around his waist. A sound of surprise escapes from between his lips when he was suddenly pulled up onto Piccolo's hips, his knees against the boulder, with Piccolo's back against it.His head was beginning to feel like it was filled with air, and he reaches out, so his hands were pressed flat against the rock, to steady himself from his dizziness.<br/><br/>Because he did this, their chests were pressed against each other, and no doubt Piccolo could feel how wildly Nexus' heart was beating. He felt the blood pounding in his ears, and could barely hear what was being said, but could he could definitely feel as Piccolo thrust his hips again, Nexus unable to control his reactions, whimpering again and, to his own shock and surprise, moans softly. His eyes widen, which were shaking slightly.<br/><br/>He grimaces, his sharp teeth clenched tightly. "N-no...th-that's not it at...at all.." His vision began to blur as he slowly begins to lose control over his body. "Uhhhh....h...I'm ju-just..." His eyes squeeze shut, and he presses harder against Piccolo. "So...rrgghh....con....fused...!" Leaning forward, losing all control, removes one hand from the rock, to pull away the fabric of Piccolo's clothing from his shoulder, rather forcibly in fact.<br/><br/>Then he moves his mouth by Piccolo's exposed skin, his lips parted, hot breath caressing the green skin below it. For a moment he remains like this, heart pounding, breathing fast and shallow, his pupils dilated to mere specks of black. It was obvious he was long gone, and all that was left were his animal instincts. Baring his sharp teeth, he then sinks his fangs into Piccolo's flesh. It would hurt at first, but then it would feel rather arousing, as a sort of ecstasy inducing liquid was injected into him.<br/><br/>It was true he found himself attracted to Piccolo.... but he also cared rather deeply for Bardock, even though he constantly found himself at odds with the guy. Despite this fact, he liked Bardock, a lot. Thus the confusion. He liked them both equally, despite only the short time knowing them. He couldn't help but feel the strong emotion towards both of them.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo thought at first he was just going to kiss his neck but when he felt his teeth break the skin, he let out a soft grunt. God, that hurt a little. Almost immediately, though, Piccolo felt different. Pleased... and rather turned on. He knew he'd bear the mark forever, but he didn't care. At least, not at that moment. He pushed himself off the boulder, and turned around, so that Nexus' back was now against it. He leaned over, taking in his scent as he growled in lust. He bared his teeth, scraping them against the soft flesh. But he didn't bite... not yet, anyway.<br/><br/>Piccolo instead pulled off the Gi shirt, now bare-chested as he kissed the other again. His hands roamed his chest, one going up to his neck and shoulder, and he paused, pulling away. "If you don't want this.. you need to tell me now... because if you protest later, I won't be able to stop. Keep in mind it's been... a LONG time since I've done this. So I won't go easy."<br/><br/>Piccolo was warning him now, because in the state he wo his ld be in later, he wouldn't do much talking.<br/><br/>PAGE 7:<br/><br/>M: Breathing out through his mouth, he sighs softly when his back was pressed against the rock this time, Piccolo's body holding him there. Raising his body to Piccolo's mouth, he moans softly again when Piccolo's teeth scraped along his skin, turning him on a bit more than he already was, his hips moving slightly against Piccolo's waist.<br/><br/>Instead of hesitating this time, Nexus kisses Piccolo back, rather hungrily in fact, his skin shivering and forming goose bumps at his touch. Eyes dilated, he looks right at Piccolo, a smirk on his lips. "If I didn't want this...I would have never bitten you...." An almost lustful look shines in his eyes, as he looked at Piccolo. He didn't know if he would regret this later, but right now, he didn't care.<br/><br/>Leaning forward, he moves his lips to the Piccolo's shoulder again, but before he bites, he runs the tip of his tongue along Piccolo's skin, across the bite he'd already made, tasting him. After making a short trail, he licks his lips, and then sinks his teeth once more into Piccolo's flesh, and like before, injects more of the liquid into him, before kissing the spot with his soft lips. His hand makes a trail across Piccolo's chest, his fingers tracing his skin. "And I never expected you to go easy either...I'm always up for a challenge."<br/><br/>B: Piccolo shivered harshly, his whole body vibrating from pleasure as Nexus' hands traveled his chest. when he felt the second bite, he groaned half from pain and half from pleasure. Again, he felt something different take over his body. He gasped as it once again turned into pleasure, lust, and ecstasy. 'What is he doing to me..?' He only thought it to himself and soon, he was breathing hard from want, his cock was rock hard, and he growled softly, deep in his throat.<br/><br/>Both hands found the pants that covered the rest of Nexus' body and he pulled them away, nearly ripping them from his waist and legs. He set the other down and undid the Gi tie on his pants, allowing them to fall at his ankles.<br/><br/>"That so?" Piccolo hoisted Nexus back upon his hips after removing the clothes between them and he smirked softly, "Glad we have that in common."<br/><br/>Piccolo then took Nexus' lips in his again, his tongue slowly working its way around his mouth. Meanwhile, he slowly started to push himself inside the other.<br/><br/>M: Just like the rest of his body, his lower half was perfect as well. Proportionate to his height and size, it was as if God was trying to make the perfect being, and Nexus was that being. He smirks again, seeing Piccolo as well, and, since Piccolo was a large man, so was the rest of him.<br/><br/>He wraps his legs around Piccolo's waist as he was set there once again, his back pressed against the rock, supporting him slightly. He reaches out, and clasps his hand behind Piccolo's neck, pressing hard against the kiss, opening his mouth and allowing Piccolo to slip his tongue inside. His mouth, Nexus's mouth that is, was surprisingly sweet. His tongue danced along Piccolo's, instinct guiding him along.<br/><br/>As he felt Piccolo begin to enter him, he grunts slightly, his nails digging into the back of Picollo's shoulders, adjusting to the rock hard flesh pushing inside him. After a moment, he relaxes, and slowly moves his hips, easing himself onto Piccolo and pleasuring him at the same time, even as Piccolo pushed deeper in him. Toes curling, and fingernails digging deeper, he felt the skin break on Piccolo's back, and warm liquid getting under his nails.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo's own animalistic senses were starting to surface as he groaned, still pushing deeper inside until he couldn't move anymore. He nearly gave no warning as he started to thrust, his hips moving back and forth. He moaned softly, his own nails digging into the soft skin on Nexus' hips. Piccolo used his hands to manually move him up and down over his cock. God, it'd been too long since he had this, and for once he's the one who initiated bit. Piccolo pulled his head away, looking the other in the eyes deeply. One could almost read what he was feeling almost. A moment passed before he leaned over, kissing Nexus again before his lips traveled to his neck, nipping at first. But as he sank his teeth into his neck, his hips started to move faster and harder into him.<br/><br/>As his tongue lapped at the blood welling up, his fingernails also dug deeper into Nexus' skin. He pulled up down and pushed him up harder and faster over his cock. Piccolo had marked Nexus, just as he done to him.<br/><br/>M: When Piccolo got in deep, and suddenly began thrusting his hips, Nexus cries out, moaning loudly, his back arching, his whole body trembling. For most, this kind of thing would be painful, but for Nexus, this was pure bliss. Feeling Piccolo moving him up and down, his nails digging into the flesh upon his hips, and as Piccolo moved him up and down, Nexus swayed his hips slightly side to side. Each time that piccolo thrust deep within him, he moans louder, his entire self overcome with immeasurable pleasure.<br/><br/>Then, when Piccolo bites his neck, enough to pierce his skin, he let's out a long trilling moan, and digs his nails deeper within Piccolo's shoulders. Nexus was a glutton for the raw stuff, biting and drawing blood. His head hangs loosely upon his neck, allowing Piccolo more access to his skin, wanting to feel his bite, to feel teeth dig deep into him, just like that of what was moving so deep and fast in him down below. He begins to cry out, saying Piccolo's name and several other things in his native language, each word said like a moan.<br/><br/>For the first time ever, in his entire life, he'd ever felt this way. Not even with women had he felt like this. All he wanted was for Piccolo to do with him as he wanted, to feel Piccolo's weight on him, to forever feel his touch, that lustful, animal like touch. "Piccolo..." he groans, squeezing his eyes shut, sweat once more beginning to become slick on his skin, a drop sliding down the side of his face.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo bit harder into his neck, drawing more blood as he continued to thrust. His blood was toxic... but made him only want more of it. Piccolo heard his name called, moaned, over and over again. Each time drove him wild with want. He pulled Nexus away from the boulder, and instead onto the soft grass below. One hand held Nexus down on his side and hip, and the other pulled one leg on top of his shoulder. He was shocked to see that he was able to thrust a little deeper, slipping in almost to the end. Piccolo stared down, watching himself slide in andnout and he shivered, "Fuck.. I'm all the way in..."<br/><br/>Piccolo pounded into him now, wanting to hear his voice, his cries, and his name come from the others mouth, "Nyx.. say it again." Sweat poured down his own face and chest, mixing with Nexus' as small droplets fell onto the grass below.<br/><br/>M: Trembling as he was bit harder, Nexus was beginning to see red as things got more and more intense. Before he knew it, they were on the grass, Nexus on his side, one hip pressed into the ground, while Piccolo moved one of his legs over his shoulder, so his foot dangled down on the other side. One would be surprised at just how flexible Nexus' body was, and how well it could move. His body shivers as Piccolo manages to push further in, his insides accepting the hardened flesh willingly, and closes tightly around Piccolo, much more so since, even though he hadn't said, he was a virgin in that area.<br/><br/>"Uhhhh...haaa...nnngh...PICCOLO!" He moans even louder than before, his voice echoing all around them. Dirt and grass clung to his sticky and sweat skin, but he was oblivious to this. All he could feel was Piccolo pounding hard into him, and the blood dripping across his fevered flesh, making a trail of deep crimson, sizzling slightly as it was exposed to air. "Piccolo! Ahh...h-harder!" Nexus savored the way that Piccolo had called him Nyx, whe could say it more deliciously lustful, or make him feel so good by just speaking his name like that out loud. "P-Piccolo...!"<br/><br/>B: Piccolo's body, as if on command, did exactly as he was told, driving his hardest between his thighs. The sounds of skin slapping skin, and a mixture of Nexus' cries drove him wild with lust. He started to raise his power, letting loose of his wild nature. His long nails once again dug deep grooves into the others hip, and also his thigh as he pounded even harder and faster still. Moans mixed with his hard breathing carried across the field and he softly was thanking God no one was in miles of the area.<br/><br/>Piccolo could feel a tingling deep inside him. He was nearing close to release and he could feel it. He didn't want to stop, though. Not when it'd been so long since he felt this feeling. "Nyx.." he panted, keeping up with the rhythm of his lovemaking, "I'm... gonna come..."<br/><br/>M: Nails dug lines into his skin, tearing it and making him bleed, blood dripping from his thigh and hip as well as his neck now. When Piccolo drove deeper and harder, Nexus moans even louder, his voice mingling with Piccolo's low groans. White flashes mix with the red his eyes were seeing, as they open slightly, too look at Piccolo, his cheeks burning red as his heart pounded in his chest, his breathing now just gasps, his lips parted widely.<br/><br/>He could hear what Piccolo said, but like him, Nexus didn't want it to end. "Th-then do it....a-and l-let me....nnn....b-bite...you..a...again...uuunnn..." Nexus manages to get the words from his mouth, though they were laced with moans and soft, low groans. He himself was no where near release, since his body was built a bit different from Piccolo's or anyone else's on Earth. Just getting some kind of extreme, and deep pleasure filled experience could do the trick. Like what was going on right now.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo released his leg. Taking a hold of Nexus' forearms, he pulled him up, still I inside him, and he wrapped the others arms around his neck. Both hands placed on his hips, Piccolo deeply kissed him again. His tongue worked the inside of Nexus' mouth, gently massaging the others tongue with his own. Both hands went from Nexus' hips, and slowly traveled their way up his chest, his thumbs grazing both nipples before lowering again. One arm again wrapped around Nexus' side to hold him up and his other hand traveled lower still, wrapping itself around the others cock, and he started stroking in the rhythm to his thrusting.<br/><br/>He was waiting for the bite, knowing that whatever it was that he was doing would make the experience that much better. "Do it.. quick.."<br/><br/>PAGE 8:<br/><br/>M: Moved to a sitting position, Nexus' knees bent slightly, he holds tightly to where his arms were placed by Piccolo. His hips swayed in Piccolo's hands, and the kiss they shared was invigorating in it's own way, hot breath mingling upon sweet, hot breath. Their tongues moved alongside each other, and when Nexus felt Piccolo first graze his thumbs across his nipples, then one hand took a hold of his own cock, and begins stroking it, he moans into the kiss. His inner thighs tremble, his skin felt on fire with each touch it received.<br/><br/>Pulling away for a moment, he does as Piccolo says, once again placing his mouth upon Piccolo's body, and sinking his teeth in deeper than before, drawing more than a few drops of blood forth as he placed that addicting liquid inside of Piccolo's veins, holding there a bit longer, to get more in, and tasting Piccolo's blood as well. When he'd finished, he runs his tongue over the spot, then makes a trail of light nips back up to Piccolo s lips, the tips of his sharp teeth just barely nicking the skin. Before placing his lips back on Piccolo's he smiles lustfully. "There...that...sh-should be...more than...e-enough..." He moans again, before kissing Piccolo hungrily once again, his arms around Piccolo's neck pulling him in even deeper.<br/><br/>B: "Ahh!!" Hr groaned from the bite, breathing harder as he felt that weird sensation resonate throughout his body again, this time for a longer period of time. He continued his pace, the feeling like a drug taking over his body, and he was hooked on it. After the kiss, Piccolo sank his own teeth back inside the same bite, reopening the wound as he came deep inside Nexus. He grunted through the bite, thrusting just a few more times, and his hand still stroking the others cock.<br/><br/>On his knees now, Piccolo sat there, pausing while he tried to catch his breath. He removed his mouth from Nexus' neck and used his arm to wipe any blood that fell down his chin. He slowly placed both hands on the others hips and smirked, "You didn't come... Now that I DID come.. are you ready for round two?"<br/><br/>M: Nexus groans out loud when Piccolo sinks his own teeth into him, his muscles twitching. He felt as Piccolo came deep inside of him, and for Nexus, the sensation that he felt, having it inside, was stimulating, just as the liquid he'd poured into Piccolo's veins was stimulating him. His lower region felt hot, it was burning on the inside, like a fire contained in a stove, unable to escape from within.<br/><br/>Once released from Piccolo's teeth, he lets his head fall back, his hair falling in his face, sticking to his forehead and cheeks. His breathing was much quicker in pace to that of Piccolo's, and like him, he took a few moments to catch his breath. The skin on his hips respond to Piccolo's touch, sending waves of more longing coursing through Nexus' veins. He looks straight at Piccolo, matching the smirk on his lips, his own sultry and hot. Licking his lips, he answers Piccolo's question with no words, simply begins to move his body again along Piccolo's cock, swaying his hips, moving up and down, the liquid, AND Nexus doing their job, and making Piccolo rock hard again, hornier than ever. His movements practically reading 'Of course I'm ready for round two. Enough chit chat and fuck me already.'<br/><br/>B: Piccolo grunted again, his eyes squeezing shut as Nexus worked his cock. It only took a few movements to made him rock hard again. Inside, he could feel the region getting hotter and it made his loins burn. Piccolo laughed softly, tightening his grip on Nexus' hips, "You like getting kinky, huh? It's a good thing I have a few tricks up my sleeve."<br/><br/>Piccolo closed his eyes for a moment, a green aura forming around both their bodies. It looked like he strained, but only for a few seconds, and then he reopened them, another smirk on his face.<br/><br/>Just as suddenly there was a second pair of hands roaming on Nexus' body, and another pair of teeth sink back into the same bite on his neck, greedily lapping up any blood that fell..<br/><br/>Piccolo turns Nexus' around, now having his back against him and the other was face-to-face with another Piccolo, "Meet my double. I have the ability not only to regenerate, but also duplicate myself. Whatever he tastes.. I taste, and whatever he feels, I feel. But don't worry.. you'll feel him just as much as you feel me right now."<br/><br/>M: If this was some kind of torture, Nexus never wanted it to end. He could go on forever, to feel like this for an eternity, to never forget this sensation. As another pair of hands roam his body, he shivers softly, and as he was bitten, he moans loudly, it was heaven. His face was bright red, his eyes filled to the brim with lust, his look skillfully seductive.<br/><br/>As he was turned, his back now pressing against Piccolo's stomach, he comes face to face with another Piccolo, or, as he was explained, a duplicate. Nexus stares right at the copy, and doesn't even hesitate, but leans forward, his hands planted firmly on the ground, and places his lips against the copy's, biting his bottom lip, before pushing hungrily against them.<br/><br/>As he kissed the double, he continued to move his body, swaying his hips and lower body, arching his back like a feline, his spine curving inward deeply. All of him was burning with desire, his whole self trembling with uncontrollable need. A moment passes, and he feels a dripping of something rolling down his thigh, knowing exactly what it was. It made him just the more hotter, as sweat glistened on his skin, mingling with the blood and cum. "Piccolo...make it...burn...ahhh...burn so h-hot..."<br/><br/>B: Piccolo watched Nexus, so hot and heavy as he kissed his duplicate passionately. He was taking his time, and he couldn't do it anymore. His power level almost full, Piccolo began to thrust again, going at a hard, throbbing pace as he felt his inside get even hotter, "God, you're hot.."<br/><br/>The duplicate had other plans. As Piccolo continued to fuck him, his lips traveled from Nexus' lips, and down his chest. Lowering itself to nearly lying on the grass, its lips stopped at Nexus' cock. It blew softly on the head before pulling it into its mouth, sucking hard. Slowly the duplicate moves its head up and down over the shaft, nipping softly when necessary. It's hands gripped Nexus' thighs in order to still him while it sucked harder, still.<br/><br/>M: He didn't know which was more enthralling, the penetration of Piccolo behind, thrusting hard, or the double, which had made it's way down to his cock, and placed it in his mouth. His moans grown in volume, it was almost too much for his body to handle. "S-so......HOT!" He almost screams out loud as finally he comes into the double's mouth, his cum much warmer than average.<br/><br/>Right as he released, the gloves upon his hands begin to steam and smoke slightly, and after a moment, tiny tendrils of flames flicker upon the fabric, dancing and flaring with each throe of pleasure that crashed through him like a great ocean wave. He grips the grass beneath him, his fingers tearing at the tender green stalks, the fire burning others. His muscles clench up, his stomach flexing tightly, his shoulders bunched up. The marking on his shoulder seemed to glow and burn, as if there were hot coals beneath his skin.<br/><br/>His body was not finished though, he wanted more! He was addicted, he couldn't get enough. "M-more! Piccolo!" He groans, panting and gasping with each breath he took.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo grunted again, feeling the temperature rise again as he continued to pound into Nexus' backside. Another jolting wave of pleasure courses through his body, shocked to know he was about to cum again. Nexus was definitely different.. and Piccolo liked that about him. The duplicate leaned up, and seemed to have disappeared in sight. Piccolo's power level was dropping now. It look a lot of energy to duplicate himself and he was feeling the finishing touch of it.<br/><br/>His nails dug deeper inside Nexus' skin and although he could feel his fingertips burning, he still pounded harder and faster inside him. Piccolo came shortly after the other did, groaning as he emptied himself inside him. Then, he fell backwards, pulling out in the meantime. He fell onto his back, breathing hard as his power was left to almost nothing.<br/><br/>M: The duplicate disappears, leaving just the original Piccolo behind, Nexus moaning higher and higher as he felt his inner temperature rising with each thrust deep inside. The sweat dripping on his skin sizzles and steams, his flesh now burning to touch. "Uuh.....nnnn...too...too hot...!" Nexus felt as Piccolo came inside of him once again, and this time, it made him lose control, the fire on his hands flaring up, and right as Piccolo pulled out, he screams out in ecstasy, as flames burst out all over his body.<br/><br/>He collapses to the ground, his body writhing, not in pain, but in a high of pleasure, as if he was overdosing on some addicting drug. Continuing to moan, he doesn't realize that as he rolled around, he was catching the grass on fire. "Aahhh...nnn...too....TOO HOT!" He screams again, his body no longer in his control. After a moment, he begins to realize what was going on, it starts to frighten him, and he curls up into a tight ball, cum flowing generously from both his rear and from his own cock. He squeezes his eyes shut again, taking deep breaths as he tried to calm the fire within him.<br/><br/>'PICCOLO HELP ME!' He screams with his mind and his voice, his heart racing. Nexus wraps his arms around his head, as the flames grow even more, until he was surrounded by a blaze of red, orange, and yellow, as well as flickers of white and blue. Tears began to sting at his eyes, and he grits his teeth. Fear that Piccolo would get hurt was all he could think about. He'd hate if that happened, especially after what they'd just done together. Not wanting it to be their last.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo leaned up with a start, then nearly screamed when he was caught in the blaze. He jumped up, adrenaline rushing through his veins. His whole body stung, and he tried to breathe calmly. His cells worked overtime to restore the skin that was burned. But they did, and he looked over at Nexus, shocked to see that his whole body was on fire. Piccolo quickly put on his Gi pants, tying the belt around his waist.<br/><br/>"Nyx! You-aggh!!" Another shockwave prevented him from getting close. Piccolo stood there, concern crossing his features. He stood there helplessly, and he hated feeling helpless.<br/><br/>'Nyx!! You have to listen to me! This curse does not own you, do you hear me?? You have to control it!!' Piccolo was desperately trying to speak to him.<br/><br/>"DAMN IT!!" He tried to get closer to Nyx, but the flames were too high, he was too hot.<br/><br/>Too hot.....<br/><br/>Piccolo rose into the air and he closed his eyes. He needed to focus his energy into the sky. Soon enough, thunder rumbled, lightening struck. Slowly, but surely, only in that particular area, it started to rain.<br/><br/>PAGE 9:<br/><br/>M: He could hear Piccolo's words, trying to get through to him, but it could not be helped. The flames rose, higher and higher, spreading from his body to the grass around him, shock waves of heat and power keeping Piccolo at bay. Nexus screams again, it felt like the fire was going to consume him, eat him alive, devour his very soul. Even though it did not burn him, the pain from not being able to control himself, control the curse, was more than enough to make his body rack with agony.<br/><br/>He forces his eyes open, tears pouring from them, sizzling across his cheeks and turning to vapor. Looking to Piccolo, he saw him rising into the sky, and fear rippled through him. Nexus feared that Piccolo was leaving him there, alone. Just as everyone else had ever done.<br/><br/>Closing his eyes, he passes out, though even with the fact that Nexus was unconscious, his curse raged on, burning from deep inside, fueled by some unknown power. However, when droplets of rain began to fall on him, slowly at first, then heavily, the fire sizzles and begins to go out, greyish smoke rising and curling in tendrils to the sky up above as the flames die down, until all that was left were tiny flickers of candle like flames, but even those go out in the end.<br/><br/>Nexus' skin was now drenched with rain, his hair soaked, curling slightly at the tips because of how wet it was. Blood ran to the ground as it was washed away, which was then absorbed by the earth underneath him, leaving just a mere crimson stain behind.<br/><br/>A rush of wind blows past, making him shiver, goose bumps forming upon his skin. However, he doesn't wake up, but after a loud clap of thunder sounds, his eyes fly open, his red eyes filled with fear. His gaze looks all around, as he slowly sits up, taking in the scene of the charred ground beneath him, the grass burned away in a large, ten foot circular area, with him in the center. He then look up, blinking as rain fell in his face, reaching up he pushes his bangs from his eyes. He sees Piccolo there, and guilt washes over him, much like the rain washing over his skin.<br/><br/>"Piccolo...I-" He wanted to say sorry, but words were having a hard time forming in his throat. Instead, he just gazes up at him, his eyes wide and begging for forgiveness.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo was still in the air, his arms up as his power controlled the rain. He was able to glance down, seeing that the blaze was finally put out. Piccolo eased the rain, thunder, and lightening, and it slowly started to diminish. The clouds turned white and the sun started to shine, though the ground was still drenched.<br/><br/>"Nyx..." was the only thing he could say before his eyes closed, exhausted from using everything he had. The aura left him and he started to fall. He plummeted to the ground, but right before impact, Goku appeared out of nowhere, catching him in his arms. He slowly lowered to the ground and set the passed out Nemekian on the ground. His eyes then averted towards Nexus, and he pulled his orange Gi off.<br/><br/>Goku walked over to Nexus, knowing he was nude, and handed him his shirt so he could cover up, or dry off, "Here.. don't worry, it's just me. No one else came. Do you wanna tell me what happened?"<br/><br/>"No.." a pained voice erupted the air, and Goku looked over to see Piccolo trying to lean up, but he only made it to his side, "I did this... it was.. ahh.."<br/><br/>Goku shook his head, "Piccolo, you need to rest.."<br/>M: Nexus' eyes widen when he sees Goku appear, before a blank expression takes over his face. He watches as Goku sets Piccolo down, his red eyes staring at him, regret flowing through his veins, but so skillfully hidden from view. Bringing his knees together when Goku walks over to him he takes the shirt that was offered to him, and slips it on, covering him up, the shirt falling to about his mid thigh.<br/><br/>Looking away, he shakes his head when Goku asks him if he wanted to explain, his eyes flicking to look over at Piccolo, who had spoken up. "Piccolo...." he murmurs, a flash of concern flickering behind his eyes, as he fought the urge to go over to him. He bites his lip, and struggles to stand, his knees shaking, his legs wobbly. Wincing, he takes a step forward, and almost falls on his face, but manages to steady himself.<br/><br/>Taking a deep breath, he stumbles forward, and then kneels down a moment next to Piccolo. He was silent, reaching out to place a hand on Piccolo's arm, but hesitates, his hand falling to his side, and stands again, heading over to where his clothes were, walking as if he was drunk, staggering and almost falling several times.<br/><br/>"I...don't want...to talk..." Nexus mutters, mostly to himself. "Just...just leave me alone..." his voice sounded strained, as if he were about to cry, and halfway to the rock he sinks to his hands and knees, staring at the ground beneath him, as his vision blurs from the tears he was trying so desperately to hold back, to keep hidden. "Leave me...alone..." He grits his teeth, and his head hangs from his shoulders, looking like some kind of poor, defeated dog who'd just gotten whipped by it's master.<br/><br/>B: Goku looked a little hurt that Nexus didn't want to talk, but as he watched him, it reminded him of how Vegeta had walked after they first had sex. A small, sympathetic smile formed on his face and he glanced at Piccolo, who seemed to have passed out again. No matter how hard Nexus tried, Goku could see and hear the concern in his voice. Goku got up, and walked over to where he was heading to. Goku picked up his clothes and brought them over to Nexus. He leaned over, setting the clothes on the ground, "He will be okay. Piccolo used a lot of energy, its nothing that a little rest can't take care of. Here.."<br/><br/>Goku reaches into his pocket and pulled out the senzu bean he was saving, "You look like you need this. Don't try to walk immediately after.." he chuckles a little, "Vegeta did that after we first made love, and he ended up breaking his tailbone after he fell.."<br/><br/>"Nyx.." Piccolo and finally gotten up and he placed a hand on his shoulder, his own concern falling over his features, "Are you alright?" His body, chest and all, was a slight purple color from being burned, but he gotten enough energy back to walk.<br/><br/>M: Nexus eyes the clothes that were set in front of him, and wipes away the tears in his eyes with one arm as he reaches for his clothes with the other. Without looking at Goku, he nods when he was told Piccolo would be okay, with a little rest he'd be back to normal. Then, he eyes the senzu bean handed out to him, staring at it, as if unsure why Goku was doing this.<br/><br/>He eventually takes it though, but doesn't eat it right away. He snorts when he hears what Goku tells him, and shakes his head. "I...don't really need to hear stories about your lovemaking..." he mutters, before placing the bean in his mouth and eating it, and like before, he felt his entire self return to normal. He sits up, but doesn't stand, like he was instructed, not really wanting to end up hurt, and slips on his pants that way, covering himself up. He really didn't to take off anything in front of Goku, so rather reluctantly he kept the orange shirt Goku let him cover up with on.<br/><br/>"P-Piccolo?! You..." He looks up as he felt a hand on his shoulder, hearing Piccolo's low gruff voice in his ears. Seeing the look in Piccolo's eyes, that look of concern, made his eyes sting with tears again. "Y-yeah...I-I'm fine...believe me...I've been through worse..." His voice gets quiet near the end. Indeed he had been through a LOT worse back on his home planet.<br/><br/>He glances at the shape Piccolo was in, his eyebrows pressing together lightly. "But...what about you? Are...are you okay?" Reaching up, his hand trembling, wanting to touch Piccolo, but like before, he hesitates, and bites his lip, looking away, glancing at Goku. Why was he even here, for that matter?<br/><br/>B: Piccolo nodded, smiling softly as his hand touched Nexus' face, a thumb sliding over his lips. He lowers himself, grunting as he sat down, still exhausted from before. He shook his head, looking at the burns on his body and hands, "Not the worst shape I've been in. My cells regenerate pretty quickly, so don't worry. I'll be fine."<br/><br/>"Are you sure you're alright, Piccolo? I felt your power level drop pretty quickly and got worried." Goku had the same look of concern in his eyes.<br/><br/>Piccolo didn't even glance at Goku, "Thank you, Goku. You may leave now."<br/><br/>Goku blinked, his face full of surprise, "What? Piccolo, I-"<br/><br/>"I said leave!" Piccolo looked . At Goku now, sending him a look that said he'd explain later, but looked cold to the naked eye, "Go."<br/><br/>Goku blinked a few times, but nodded, getting to his feet and sighing. He pressed two fingers to his forehead and a second later he was gone. Piccolo grimaced when he left. He knew he'd hurt Goku's feelings, and he hated treating him so horribly. But Nexus didn't particularly care for Goku, and he knew it.<br/><br/>He took Nexus' hand then, squeezing it softly, "You can touch me.. you don't have to hesitate every time."<br/><br/>M: Closing his eyes, he breaths out softly when Piccolo placed his hand upon his face, and brushes his thumb over his lips. Nexus felt a wave of relief, glad to hear that Piccolo was okay, and would be alright. He could hear the concern in Goku's voice, but even so, Nexus didn't exactly want him there, and apparently Piccolo could sense this, as he told Goku to leave, not once, but twice, the second time in a loud voice. Nexus stares at the ground when Goku stood, not looking up when he disappears.<br/><br/>Then he looks over at Piccolo, who had sat down next to him. Looking at their hands together, he shakes his head. "No...I...don't want to end up hurting you again. I always... always end up doing that...hurting the people I care for. First Nalnan, then Rexyl, and now you..." He murmurs the last bit softly, sighing quietly. But he doesn't pull his hand away, instead remained like he was.<br/><br/>""Torikes suku delrak, kest demor nikull'..." He mutters, leaning his head against Piccolo's shoulder. "Cherish your friends, keep them close...its something my Nalnan used to say to me. How though, can I keep my friends close, if I always end up hurting them?" He looks up at the sky, suddenly feeling really tired, his eyelids drooping. He wanted to rest, but...he knew he had to get back at some point.<br/><br/>B: Piccolo stared at Nexus, seeing the pained look in his eye as he spoke about past loved ones. Piccolo once again ran his hand over the others cheek before smiling softly, "Don't worry about hurting me. I made it rain for you and I will do it again when I need to. You just need a little training on how to control this. First, don't think of it as a curse anymore. Because if you do, then it will always have power over you."<br/><br/>Piccolo looked up at the sky a moment, realizing it was getting late, "You need to rest. And so do I. I'd take you to my lookout, but there's a teenage Nemekian who's studying to be the Guardian of Earth. To your place?"<br/><br/>M: A pained smile forms upon his lips as he heard Piccolo's words. It meant so much to him, to hear what was being said. He cherished everything that was being told to him by Piccolo, and would never forget this moment, as painful as it was, it was also sort of...happy. "Munór ni suk...Thank you."<br/><br/>Sighing, he gets to his feet, gathering his things in his arms. "Lookout?" Nexus questions. But nods at the mention of going back to his place. Reluctantly though, he turns to face the direction of where the city was, staring off at it. To get here he'd flown, but he wasn't sure if Piccolo was up to it. Though, if they walked, it would take at least an hour to get back. He decided he'd change when he got back to the house.<br/><br/>"Crap! I promised Gracie I'd take her with me to the museum today...ugh..." He hated breaking promises, but with the state he was in....all he wanted to do was go home, and curl up in bed, and pass out under the covers, maybe eat something before hand, or take a shower. "Okay then...let's go."<br/><br/>B: Piccolo got up, closing his eyes for a moment. Again, green aura resonated through his body and glowed brightly. He was trying to jump start his body, like you would a vehicle. He finally reopened them, allowing the aura to fade. He smiles at Nexus, pulling on his Gi shirt and tying it, "Up for flying?"<br/><br/>------------------<br/><br/>Gracie was sitting outside as she watched Bardock and Krillen go at it. Krillen's clothes were torn, and he had blood running down his arm, chest, and mouth. He was nearly topless, showing that for a little guy, he was quite built. His jeans hung onto his hips and he was on one knee, panting hard.<br/><br/>Bardock, however, had visibly no cuts, except one from one of Krillen's Distructo Disks, and a broken armour from his Kamehameha. Both attacks had pissed Bardock off enough to hurt him. Now, Bardock stood in front of Krillen, his arms crossed at his chest, "Get up.."<br/><br/>"Can we call it quits?? I dunno if I can even move!!" Krillen tried his best to beg to stop, but Bardock wasn't having it. Instead, one hand pulled back and he slapped Krillen over the face harshly. "Get up!!"<br/><br/>Krillen fell on his hands, growling in anger and annoyance. He'd been slapped too many times today, "Stop doing that!! I'm not your fucking bitch.."<br/><br/>"Really?" Bardock reached down, snatching Krillen by the hair, causing him to cry out and reach behind his head. Bardock kept a firm grip on his hair, "You scream like a bitch."<br/><br/>Krillen growled again, pulling at Bardock's hand, "Bastard!! Let me ho!!"<br/><br/>Bardock scrunched up his face, thinking for a minute. Then, he shoves Krillen's face down, slamming it into the ground roughly. Almost immediately, he pulls his hair back again, lifting his head up, "Sorry. What was that?"<br/><br/>Krillen was bleeding from his cheek now, his hands still on Bardock's hand, trying to untangle his hair from the others grasp, "FUCK YOU!!"<br/><br/>Bardock slammed his face into the ground again, opening that cut even more, "Keep saying sweet nothings to me. I like it when you squeal."<br/><br/>"Yeah.." Krillen was breathing hard, and he struggled some more, "Bet you do, you fucking perv. Who sounds like.. the bitch now?"<br/><br/>Bardock's eyes flashed color, angry now. His other hand reached up, grabbing Krillen by the throat, and squeezing. Bith of Krillen's hands flew to Bardock's hand around his neck.<br/><br/>PAGE 10:<br/><br/>M: "So, you're up for it? Alright then...but I might be catching some Z's on the way..." He smiles softly at Piccolo, before closing his eyes, a reddish aura surrounding him, and for a moment he remains like this, before opening his eyes again halfway. "Let's go..." He springs up into the air, and flips while midair, his body curling into a ball, eyes closing, as he was suddenly hidden from view by a sphere of fire-like ki, crackling and hovering there. Once Piccolo was next to him, it takes off, moving fast, leaving a trail of red, yellow, and orange behind, much like a shooting star.<br/><br/>He was moving on autopilot pretty much, as the ball flew through the air towards the city, and like Nexus had told Piccolo, he had actually fallen asleep, resting for the short time it would take to get back. The orb surrounding him pulsed with each breath, each heartbeat. It was part of him, and yet separate at the same time. This particular thing was unique to him alone, no one else where he'd come from could pull it off.<br/><br/>Eventually they reach the city, and then as they reach the area where he lived, Nexus opens his eyes, stretching out, and landing on the ground by the back door lightly. However, when both his feet hit the ground, he staggers slightly, and he had to reach out and place his had against the house to keep from falling.<br/><br/>The scene that was before him made him blink with confusion, Bardock and Krillen looking like they were trying to kill each other, but before he could ask what was going on, his stomach suddenly lurches, and he presses his hand over his mouth, doubling over, almost heaving what food was left in his stomach. Wincing, he straightens again, and pushes the door open, not even stopping to say anything to Bardock, Krillen, or Gracie, who were probably wondering what had happened.<br/><br/>However, he doesn't get very far, barely passing over the thresh hold when he feels the same sensation again, and sinks to the floor. "Dam..nit..." He mutters, closing his eyes, welcoming the coolness of the floor beneath him. 'Sorry Gracie, looks like I can't take you to the museum today....' he thinks to himself, feeling miserable, both for breaking his promise and all that's happened.<br/><br/>B: "ENOUGH!! Bardock, unhand him!" Piccolo looked angry, glaring at Bardock as he witnessed the smaller man take a beating he didn't deserve.<br/><br/>Bardock, hand still clenched around Krillen's neck, tsked at Piccolo in annoyance, glaring back at him. But he did what he was told, letting his hand go and he watched as Krillen fell to the ground, "Pathetic." Bardock turned away, walking off, but not right before Piccolo throws his arm out, "Next time... pick on someone your own size, you bully."<br/><br/>Bardock didn't move his head or body, but he smirks, "That a challenge, Green Bean?" He paused, but Piccolo said nothing. He then laughs, "Didn't think so. Move it, or I'll break it."<br/><br/>Piccolo, angry for being called out, yanks his arm down to his side. He'd love to teach the bastard a lesson, but in his current state, he knew it wouldn't be wise. It was only then he realized that Nexus was gone. He glanced to Krillen, nodding as if asking if he were okay. Krillen nodded back, his hand on his throat.<br/><br/>Piccolo looked about, seeing the door open and he walked inside, angry to see that Bardock was right in front of Nexus.<br/><br/>Bardock had placed a hand on Nexus' arm softly, "Hey.. you alright? What's wrong?"<br/><br/>M: Feeling queasy, he clenches his stomach, not exactly sure why the hell he was suddenly feeling like this. It was like he'd eaten something disgusting, and his body was rejecting it, quite painfully. His things were spread out around him that he'd dropped when he'd sunk to the floor moments earlier. His hand rubs underneath the orange shirt he was wearing that belonged to Goku, as if trying to ease the pain by massage.<br/><br/>He then feels a hand, soft on his arm, and a question from a familiar voice made him open his eyes, but only part way, his vision blurred and fuzzy, Bardock's face slowly coming into view. "Oh....h-hey Bardock..." He murmurs, before closing his eyes again after seeing Piccolo standing in the doorway, unable to keep them open for long. Slowly he shakes his head back and forth, not sure what was wrong, he just felt really sick.<br/><br/>After a moment, he struggles to sit up, the shirt sliding off his shoulder, revealing the bite mark that Piccolo had given him, which was still bleeding a tiny bit, despite the fact he'd been given the senzu bean by Goku. Leaning against the wall, he reaches up and moves to cover his shoulder again. Taking a deep breath, he attempts to stand, but couldn't even get up to his knees without feeling so dizzy that it made his stomach clench once more.<br/><br/>B: "Hey.." Bardock gets up then, going into the bathroom and grabbing a small vial, "Here. Don't try to get up yet. Gacie takes this when her stomach-" he stops talking, noticing the bite mark on Nexus' shoulder. At first he was shocked, and he dropped the vial of anti-nausea pills, "What the fuck is that?" He pointed to his bite.<br/><br/>Piccolo saw what he saw and he knew nothing good would come from this, "Shit..."<br/><br/>Bardock's eyes flew up to Piccolo, his eyes flashing a golden color before returning to normal, "You.."<br/><br/>Piccolo was in no mood to fight, and he didn't have the strength yet, either, "Fuck.." He backed out of the house.<br/><br/>Bardock immediately transformed. His hair turned blonde and spiked up, and his eyes now a emerald green color, "You SON OF A BITCH!!" He dashed out the door, knocking Piccolo to the ground. Gracie cried out and backed away as Krillen jumped back, shocked to see the sudden sprawl. Bardock raised a hand, slamming his fist down on Piccolo's face several times, yelling with each hit in anger, "Bastard!! I'll kill you for forcing him!!"<br/><br/>Piccolo stopped the last hit and kicked the wild Saiyan off, backing up and getting to his feet, "Forcing him?? What are you talking about, you crazy monkey?!"<br/><br/>"Better to be a fucking monkey than A RAPIST!!" He raised his hand sending a powerful Ki ball at Piccolo, who dodged it in the last second.<br/><br/>Piccolo hid behind a tree, trying to get his strength back, "You psycho!! I didn't rape him! We marked each other!"<br/><br/>"LIAR!!!" Another Ki was sent, exploding the tree that hid Piccolo, "Don't insult me by telling me he WILLINGLY allowed you to put your hands on him!!" Another Ki blast was shot, and this one actually got Piccolo. He screamed in pain, falling to the ground. Bardock stepped closer and then reached down, grabbing Piccolo by the neck with both hands and he squeezed them.<br/><br/>Piccolo coughed, pulling at Bardock's hands, trying to pry them from his throat. Then, he just pulled his shirt down, revealing his own bite mark to Bardock.<br/><br/>Upon seeing the heartbreaking evidence that Piccolo was telling the truth, Bardock stared at his neck. His grip loosened, falling to his sides, and his power dropped to normal. He couldn't believe it... Nexus had slept with Piccolo... and they marked each other. He breathed hard, doubling over and resting his arms over his knees, "Him?? Oh god, I'm gonna be sick.."<br/><br/>M: Loud voices ring in his ears, and he forces his head up in time to see both Bardock and Piccolo leave the house. For a moment, he was frozen there, clinging to the wall like some drunken person who had one too many shots of vodka. And then, seconds later, the sound of yelling and fighting reaches his ears, making him shake with uncertainty.<br/><br/>Forcing himself forward, he uses the wall to steady himself, and reaches the door, just in time to see Piccolo dodge to hide behind a tree from Bardock, who had gone Super Saiyan. With wide eyes, he watched as Bardock blasted away the tree, exposing the hiding Piccolo, who was in no where near good enough condition to be fighting right now. Another blast was sent flying, which hit it's target, making Nexus almost scream out in horror.<br/><br/>What the hell was going on?! He wanted to move forward, to help, but he couldn't make himself go any further, he was rooted to the spot, clinging to the doorway for balance. All thoughts about his stomach halting at the scene that unfolded in front of him. Why was this happening, why now?!? He felt dizzy, as he stared at the two fighting men.<br/><br/>And almost as soon as it started, it was over. Bardock returns to normal, and release his hands that were choking Piccolo, before falling to his knees, looking defeated. As Nexus hears Bardock, realization hits him like a stampeding rhino, straight in the gut, his eyes widening even more. It all made sense now. The fury Bardock had shown after seeing the bite mark, it made absolute sense.<br/><br/>"WHY?!" He screams. "WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY ANYTHING TO ME BEFORE, YOU FUCKING BASTARD?!" Pain was etched on his face, tears stinging his eyes, as he looked from Bardock to Piccolo. Oblivious to the fact that Gracie and Krillen were still there. He couldn't take it anymore, and, before his body started to get sick again, he hurries away, taking off, and going to the only place that came to mind. Goku's house. Despite the fact he was Goku's son, Nexus thought of Gohan as a friend whom he could talk to, and also, despite the age difference, he got along quite well with him.<br/><br/>However, when he got there, no one was home. Defeated, he slides to the ground, leaning against a tree a few blocks away. Holding his head in his hands, he tries to calm himself. How was he supposed to know that Bardock might actually feel the same way towards him, the way Nexus felt towards Bardock?!? Sure, the guy had started being a touch kinder and less harsh lately...but still!<br/><br/>As he sat there, he hears voices coming closer, and looks up, seeing a few of Goku and Piccolo's friends. There was the three eyed guy who's name he had a hard time remembering, that Yamcha dude, and a few others. He ducks down, hiding behind a bush, hoping they'd just walk by, and not see him there, or feel his presence. Right now, he just wanted to be alone.<br/><br/>The scene begins to replay in his mind, and this time, when his stomach lurches at the memory, he ends up puking. Coughing and gasping, he heaves, hands flat on the ground as his body convulsed. He squeezes his eyes shut, and, once again, for the fourth time that day, he cries. "Oh Domull, why?! Piccolo...Bardock...what do I do?!" He couldn't choose between them, he liked them equally!<br/><br/>Moving again, he passes out under a tree, laying on a park bench, the park totally deserted, the bench mere feet away from where the bush he'd hid behind was at. Tears continued to flow for a while, but they eventually dry up, and he rests there, his mind troubled by the things that only seemed to just keep getting worse. "Dammit..." he murmurs, before losing consciousness completely..<br/><br/>B: Gohan pressed a wet rag to Nexus' forehead, sitting down on the bed he had lied him in. 'Poor guy..' Gohan thought to himself, pulling the covers up to his neck to keep him warm. He'd found Nexus lying on a park bench close to his house, and although his father said it might not be a good idea, he had brought him inside, and in a bed. He looked rough, and was burning up from fever.<br/><br/>The door opens, and Goku stood in the doorway, "Hey.. how's he doing?"<br/><br/>Gohan looked up as his father casually leaned against the doorframe and smiled softly, "Okay, I think. I liquified a senzu bean and gave him a shot, so I hope that helps."<br/><br/>Goku nodded, "Bardock and Piccolo are here. They're both really worried."<br/><br/>"I know. Tell them to let him rest, and when he wakes up, he will see who he wants." Gohan honestly didn't want either of them there, but he knew he couldn't say that to his father. But Goku nodded and closed the door to go downstairs.<br/><br/>Meanwhile Bardock and Piccolo were both at opposite ends of the living room. Gracie was being distracted with Krillen and Goten. Every few moments Piccolo would glance at Bardock, wanting to say something, but no words ever came out. Finally, he sighed, "Look, lets try to be docile, and figure out a way to be around each other without killing the other. Maybe we should start with being honest.."<br/><br/>"Alright." Bardock didn't look up, "I'll start with saying that this is all your fault."<br/><br/>Piccolo looked shocked, "All MY fault?? You attack me based on untrue recollection, and that's all MY fault??"<br/><br/>Bardock stood then, looking at Piccolo, "You can read minds, yes?"<br/><br/>"I can't 'read minds', I can just see what people feel last when they touch me." Piccolo sighed.<br/><br/>"Whatever." Bardock dismissed the explanation, but his face went soft, "Based on the last few weeks, when we sparred, or talked, or whatever.. do you deny that you knew how I felt about Nexus?"<br/><br/>Piccolo stared at Bardock, thinking about his question for a moment, and then he sighed again, "Yes.. I knew."<br/><br/>M: Memories. Dreams. Nightmares. Recollections. Flashing before his closed eyes. Dancing around inside of his head. Mocking him. Laughing at him. Tearing away at his sanity, one layer at a time, until he was left with nothing but a broken mind, unable to think clearly, to feel anything other than his own suffering and agony.<br/><br/>As he lay there, he felt like he was sinking deeper within the depths of his inner consciousness, with no way to escape, no matter how hard he tried to climb out, clawing his way up the walls of a deep pit, only to fall right back down, ending up even further in the darkness than when he started. The blackness inside him was slowly starting to envelop him, enclose him, suffocating all light, killing him off from within.<br/><br/>Burning, ebony flames, shadows and charcoal smoke. The scent of charred flesh, the sound of screaming and crackling fire. The faces of thousands of people's faces before him, twisted with terror and agony, writhing in mile high blazes, dying left and right, his Nalnan standing right in front of him. He felt like he was going to die too, as he relived the worst moment of his life.<br/><br/>Clenching at the bed sheets, he tries to wake himself, but could not. His eyes flicker back and forth behind closed eyelids, his eyebrows pressed together. A grimace forms on his face, and then...he feels a coolness, soothing and soft, a relief on his fevered skin. Slowly he opens his eyes, and at first everything was blurred, fuzzy, as if someone had taken a photo and poured water on it, the color and ink running together.<br/><br/>Nexus blinks a few times, before things start becoming more focused. His eyes land on on his friend Gohan, who was pressing a wet rag to his forehead. He tries to sit up, but as he moved his body raged with pain, his head spinning, and dizzily he sinks back into the bed, his head resting against the pillow. "Gohan...wh-where? Why...why am I here? Where is here exactly? I...I thought I was in a park..."<br/><br/>That was right... He'd first run, trying to find Gohan, then ended up passing out on a bench, in a park near Goku's house. Nexus had never really been inside the house before, he and Gohan had always met up at the library or the park to talk or just hang out.<br/><br/>'Wait...what about Piccolo and Bardock? Where are they? I hope they aren't trying to kill each other...' He closes his eyes again for a short moment, halfway wanting to call out to Piccolo, but holds back. He wasn't even sure what he would say to Piccolo once he saw him. Opening his eyes again, he glances around the room, before looking to Gohan again.<br/><br/>B: Gohan softly pressed on Nexus' chest to keep him from getting up. A soft smile appears on his lips before he took the now steaming hot rag off, and dipped it in cold water, "I know. We found you this morning. You were burning up from fever with Dad's shirt on. I told him I'd look after you until you woke up. Piccolo and Bardock are downstairs. They havn't killed each other yet, but when Dad went to go get them, he said Krillen had suffered a major beating and the two were going at it like a high school fight." He didn't ask what happened. It was none of his business, but as he pressed the rag to his forehead again, Gohan noticed the bite on his shoulder.<br/><br/>"Wow. Marked already?" He smiled teasingly, "You have a lot of fans. Who's the lucky guy? Anyone I know?" He'd no idea it was Piccolo at all.<br/><br/>M: So, Gohan had found him in the park. He smiles wearily at his friend, truly grateful. Listening as Gohan explained what was going on, he rolls his eyes. "Typical. So damn typical." Though he had to admit to himself he was glad they were at least somewhat calm now. He pauses, closing his eyes a bit when the rag was pressed against his forehead again, though when Gohan points out the mark in his shoulder he closes his eyes completely.<br/><br/>"Sh-shut up..." His cheeks flush a bit darker, but not from the fever. He feigns ignorance about the question, keeping quiet, and gently begins to chew on is bottom lip, to distract himself. Even though he completely trusted Gohan, and thought of him as a close friend, there was no way in the burning depths of hell itself was he going to tell him who it was.<br/><br/>He coughs a bit, clearing his throat, before opening his eyes again to look around once more, anything to keep from those thoughts. It was obvious what he was doing, in his fevered state he wasn't doing a very good job keeping his intentions hidden. "So, uh...this is your house I'm guessing? Whose room is it? Yours?" He chews on his lip again, accidentally biting too hard and making it bleed, but he ignores it.<br/><br/>B: Gohan looked at Nexus, smiling and shaking his head softly, "Alright. If you don't wanna tell, I won't make ya." Gohan rinses out the rag and then looked at Nexus again, "Yeah. This is my room."<br/><br/>He then placed both fists on his hips, looking about the large room, "My mom had Bulma and Vegeta build it onto the house after Dad.. well, died." He shook his hand towards Nexus, as if telling him not to ask about it, "Long story. But Goten got my old room."<br/><br/>Gohan was silent for a moment, then gave another smile to Nexus, "It was Piccolo... wasn't it?"<br/><br/>Before another word was uttered, a knock came rapping upon his door and Krillen opened the door, "Hey.. was checking to see how Nexus was feeling."<br/><br/>"And me!!!" Gracie popped her head inside, smiling at Nexus, "Hi!!"<br/><br/>Link to the rest of the story:m<a class="postlink" href="http://www.yaoiotaku.com/forums/threads/23302-dragon-ball-z-a-visitor-from-another-world">http://www.yaoiotaku.com/forums/threads ... ther-world</a>m
