Author: Piccolo
Subject: Beginning of my journey to Namek.

I leap into into the air and fire a Masenko at the battered
Nappa, totally disintigrating him. "He'll be back", I say
to myself. I land on the ground and find $5,000 laying on
the ground where Nappa was before he died. "All right! He
must've dropped this! Now I can make the final payment on
that ship I wanted!" I exclaim excitedly. I grab the money
and head back to the space port. I look for the mechanic in
charge and find him as he's finishing putting on the after
burners I specially ordered. I tap him on the shoulder and
show him the money. He looks at the cash, smiles, and says,
"Well Piccolo! You got the last of the money, huh? Well,
your timing couldn't be better. I just finished putting on
those boosters you wanted. A few safety tests and she'll be
ready to go! Why don't you grab a bite to eat while you're
waiting." Sounds like a good idea. I head over to a little
restaurant called "There's more than one way to cook a
cow". Odd name. Oh well. I go inside and order 3 of their
famous "Rainy Day Roadkill Platters" (just burgers and
water, nothing gross). I normally don't eat, but this is
actually pretty good. I'm almost finished when a familiar
voice says, "So... you're really leaving huh?" I turn
around. It's Turles. I reply, "Yes." He looks disappointed
as he says, "But... what if Radditz attacks again? I don't
know if we can defeat him without you. At least, with you
here, are odds are slightly better." I smile and say,
"That's why I'm leaving. There are more things in the
universe than there is on Earth. Hopefully, through my
journeys, I'll become stronger and discover new skills.
Hopefully, by the time I return, I'll be more powerful than
Radditz could possibly imagine." Turles looks down, looks
up again, and nods. "Yes, you're right Piccolo. We'll hold
on as long as we can here. You just be careful, aiight?" I
smile again. "Of course. Take care Turles." We shake hands
and I walk back towards my ship. The mechanic yells at me
and says, "Hey Piccolo! It's ready! Everything checks out
AOK!" I walk over and open the hatch. Before I get in, the
mechanic says to me, "Hey! Do you realize that you'll be
the first person ever to visit another planet?" I hadn't
thought of that. What a concept! My antipation grew
evenhigher as I closed the hatch. I look around the ship.
Everything that I wanted is in here. Punching bags, a
weight bench, gymnastics mats, and even a small alcove so I
can grow my senzu beans while I'm away from my farm! It's
all here! Excited, I go over to the control panel. Laying
on the dash (if you want to call it that) is my dragon
radar. I flick it on to make sure it works. four blips
appear in the four corners of the screen and three blips
grouped together in the middle. The group must be Turles. I
turn it back off. I fire up the engines and the mechanic
opens the bay doors. "All clear!" he yells, "Let 'er rip!"
I push another button and the ship exits through the large
doors. I look out the window. Wow. I several hundred miles
above the Earth's surface now. What a rush! I then realize
another thing. I'll be travelling to the place my evil
father came from. My true home planet. Lost in thought, I
sit down in the pilot's chair and flick on the auto pilot
and set it to Namek. I stare out the window. I'm in outer
space now. The earth is slowly getting smaller and smaller
as I move further away from it. "Radditz... I WILL be back!
And, when I do come back... Earth will rejoce at your
passing from the physical world!" I turn on the after
burners, and speed off into the starry nothingness of
space.
