Kaula sighed out a little bit as she stood nearby. The girl glanced down at herself, tugging on the skirt of the dress a bit. It wasn't short. No shorter than her armor, really. It was just.. Light. It was weird just wearing fabric again instead of her normal battle armor. It was also weird how that fish man, or whatever the hell he was, knew what her sizes were! She had to admit - she didn't have a pair of cloth clothes that fit so.. Perfectly? Right now she was in similarly colored clothes. The main color being dark grey. It could be described as a knee-length dress. It had a dark green trim and some weird black symbol on her chest. Around her waist was a fancy belt. And to top the outfit off, she had knee-high boots and fancy gloves that fit the rest of her outfit.
The man himself was also something weird. Apparently claiming he was able to see the future. That he could see Kaula being a great hero. He had been part of a group called the Galactic Patrol, apparently. Kaula had asked him about it a little bit. Apparently it's latest version of it had gone to shit. Something about hiring murderers to murder a pregnant chick for abandoning a kid? She wasn't paying too much attention to that. What she was paying attention to was how the group, allegedly, policed the galaxy. Which was not only something Kaula could get behind. But it sounded like something King Kai wanted her to do. Protect the galaxy, right?
"Galactic Patrol, huh..?" she muttered as she reached over to her chest, tugging her dress a little bit as she went to glance down at the symbol. "Well.. I am training to protect the galaxy from strong threats. So.. I guess I could.. See me doing this. But from what he said, it sounds like the group has to be made again." the girl muttered, a hand coming to rub at her chin, "When I get out.. Who can I get to join me. Probably mom. Letu. Rei, though.." the girl paused, "Rei has her whole.. Thing.. Of wanting to try to rule the galaxy maybe. Might not work." she stated with a slight shrug.
Regardless, the girl went to glance around a little bit as she stuck her hands on her hips. This heaven? It was pretty damn nice compared to King Kai's planet. "Heh." she muttered at the thought. "At least it isn't as small as a single battle ball field."

He had canoed down this same euphoric river probably hundreds of times by this point. In fact, the namekian was pretty positive that it went in a paradoxical loop, somehow, where one was planted at the beginning of the river without realizing how they had got there each time they canoed down. And yet, even though he seemed to be stuck in an infinite loop of paddling, Helix wasn't very concerned. After all, mindlessly traversing the river that flowed throughout the entirety of heaven was not only a good way to think, but a good way to survey anyone who happened to stop by, hopefully someone who could give him news about the state of his home planet, and the state of the grand elder Nai.
Although, if Nai had passed away, Helix was certain he'd be heaven bound, and he would've run into him.
Actually, now that Helix thought about it... Where were the other namekians? Was there some secret namekian clubhouse which he wasn't invited to? Maybe this river didn't cover every nook and cranny of the entire heavenly dimension. How unfortunate.
Helix was so entranced in his pondering that he almost didn't notice the decidedly massive energy presence which had recently shown up along his path. Helix looked up with shock, and did a double take so powerful that his entire canoe capsized. This would've been an unfortunate occurrence if it hadn't happened in heaven, where nothing ever really seemed to be unfortunate.
Hoisting himself up to the surface of the water, with a wave of his hand the sinking canoe was transmitted into mere purple energy which quickly dispelled. Looking up for the source of the presence, Helix goofily half jogged down the surface of the river before setting his eyes on one of the only new arrivals in the golden fields of the do-gooder afterlife.
The dragon clan stepped out onto the land. "Hey! I haven't seen you around here!" The namek shouted, probably a bit too loudly, through cupped hands. As he began to walk towards the young woman, he noticed that her grey silky dress was exceptionally form fitting; it wasn't exactly tight, but it seemed to be tailored to fit her exactly, so much so that it was almost uncanny.
"I hope you don't mind me intruding on your walk," the invigorated namekian began, "but you seem to be quite well informed, and I'm in need of quite a bit of information—" Helix slapped himself on the forehead. "Where are my manners!? I'm Helix Crust of the Namekian dragon clan, pleased to meet you!"

The girl sighed softly as she continued to move. Her eyes closed as she went to bring her hands up, resting her arms behind her head as she strolled along. Yep, this place was a lot better than King Kai's planet. She probably would have walked along the surface of it several times over in the time it took for her to walk this far. Though, there was one thing that came with such a larger space. There was a lot more people around here. One such person had started to approach her.
The Saiyaness poked an eye open a bit lazily as she looked towards the man, her tail flowing freely behind her as she sighed out. One of her hands dropped to the side while the other rubbed at the back of her head, "Nah. It's fine, just taking a short break from training on that small place." she explained.
"My name's Kaula!" the girl explained, pointing to herself. "And I am a defender of the galaxy. One of the strongest people al-.. Err.." she paused a second, a hand coming up to flick at her halo, "Formerly alive, I suppose that is. I haven't been to this place much, though. I'm getting trained over on this really small planet not too far off Just needed to take a quick break." the Saiyaness continued as she went to look around, "Though I will say, if you're looking for information about here, you might be a little out of luck. I don't really know much. Only got here recently."
The gears in her mind began to churn a bit slowly - she had remembered something. Something Reikiko had told her. She had to find a dragon clan namekian! Something.. Something about the dragon balls! Her eyes went wide for a second, the girl gasped as she went to widen her stance a little bit, pointing towards the man, "You! You said you're dragon clan, right? Like Scargot of Earth! Does that mean you can make dragon balls, too??" the girl asked with renewed energy!

Helix bowed his head graciously as the woman introduced herself, and his eye was caught by her saiyan tail. But besides the tail, the rest of her was decidedly unsaiyan-like, with elvish ears protruding from both sides of head, and a complexion rather dark for a vegeta born saiyan.
Helix's eyes didn't so much as widen as much as they simply focused in on her, as she introduced herself as a defender of the galaxy. Helix couldn't help but grin as she forgot that she was dead. "It's a bit of a bother for me as well. Remembering i'm dead, that is," Helix interjected with a chuckle.
The woman said that she didn't have much information to offer, and yet the very first thing she said perplexed the namekian. Training on what small place? Was that where the Namekians were?
"I'm in the dark as well on a lot of things— What was that about training? You wouldn't happen to have seen any Namekians recently, have you? Maybe a big wide old looking fellow?" Helix bulked out his stretchy body to grand elder proportions and puffed his cheeks up with air, as if to give her an idea.
Helix sighed. "I just got here too, a big ordeal with my brother... He really didn't mean any harm to me, It's just the way the frog squirms..." The dragon clan was at it again, making excuses for Xylo. "Where are you from? I don't suppose you've met the guardian of earth before, have you? I was having such a great time with him, given the circumstances..." A strange feeling began to well up in Helix as he stood around with Kaula.
Scratching his chin as he contemplated the situation with Xylo, Helix cocked his head to the side curiously as the saiyan woman seemed to widen in stance. He jumped back with a yelp and fell on his behind as she suddenly pointed at him with her aggressive pointy finger.
Suddenly everything made sense to the future guru. "You... Were you there on Earth, when they summoned Father's earthen surrogate?" Her presence suddenly became very clear to him, and the mention of Scargot only reminded him of his experience on earth, and he slipped slightly into his old speech patterns. "You all used the power of the heavens quite nobly..." Helix seemed to forget about the urgent nature of the saiyaness, criss crossing his legs and scratching his chin as he remembered the scene at the lookout.

Kaula sighed out, she reached up for a second to feel at her head - instinctively reaching for her scouter goggles. Only now - she had remembered they weren't there. She oddly didn't have them on her when she ended up in that line. "Kinda the same. I don't know. I think my body was robbed of things - like my sword - when I died. Didn't seem to have them with me." the girl said in a quiet huff. "Besides, reminds me of my failure. But, you know. Gotta keep moving forward."
She glanced at him again. "Training? Oh. It's uh.. This special training I am getting. Stuff to defend the universe or whatever. I wouldn't know. I feel like it's been a little bit slow." the girl muttered as she shook her head, "No Namekians, though. It's only myself, the king, and another Saiyan where I've been."
The girl eventually crossed her arms, huffing out quietly as she rolled her neck around a little bit. The Namekian was talking about his brother. Wait.. They could have.. Brothers?? That sounds weird. Weren't they like.. Non gendered or something? She shrugged at the thought. "Guardian of Earth? Depends on which you mean. I had met Scargot once before he vanished. Then I met Bing, but he's dead now. Right now, Earth doesn't have a guardian anymore. Well, last I checked at least." the girl explained a little bit.
Her mouth curled upwards, revealing a pointy-toothed smile as he spoke. "Yep! I helped rebuild namek since it was destroyed." the girl proclaimed jabbing a thumb towards herself before she took a step forward, offering a hand to help the fallen Namekian up. "I mean. I would have liked to wish for some other stuff, but. You know, there was only the one wish. So I decided to go with the obviously best option. Besides, I bet it made the robot feel better since it was technically him who blew up the planet."
"Though you didn't answer my question. Can you make em?"

Helix pushed himself up off of the ground with both hands and cracked his back so hard that it his mallable spine went limp, and he flopped over backwards before slingshotting back into a standing position. "I didn't really lose much," Helix replied to her initial statement, "not that I had much in the first place. I was living up on top of the tower where you all summoned my uncle. Just sort of bumming around, if I'm being honest!" Helix laughed at his own joke, overcompensating. "We all screw up sometimes. I've made a lot of mistakes."
The saiyaness, however, wasn't coming to him for guidance. She wanted something out of him. But he would never hold it against her. "Special training," he followed along, mouthing the words again as she continued to speak. His face became stern when she mentioned that there were no Namekians. Where could they all be? Why did the secret dead namekian club insist on keeping him an outsider? He made a mental note to ask her later about this 'king' fellow. If he had any sort of authority over the afterlife, he would know where to find the other namekians.
They began to stroll by the river as the conversation moved to the topic of the guardians. "Yes, that's the one," Helix confirmed at the mention of Bing, but immediately frowned. "Dead? That can't be, he was alive when I passed... Or, I supposed he hadn't been around for a long while..." Helix receded into himself slightly at the mention of Earth having no guardian. Namek too, had no guardian, as far as he knew, and was certainly in discord, especially if the grand elder had passed.
When the future guru asked the woman about her experience with the dragon balls, she lit up. Being helped to his feet, he thanked her and grinned as she continued to explain that she was one of the contributing factors to the revival of namek-kind.
"Our planet and species thanks you for your service," he said genuinely and with a hint of gravity.
Helix, newly embedded with a bit of youthful rigor, decided to walk and talk, gesturing the saiyaness to stroll alongside him as they continued their conversation. Helix really did listen to you when you spoke to him. He leaned in slightly, and made you feel as though every word you said was important. When one finished a sentence, he always appeared to be on the cusp of a reply, but would courteously wait until it was his turn to speak. He didn't dispense his advice for no good reason either; everything about him had a gentle and pleasantly fatherly aura, as if you could come to him with your issues and he would give you that perfect 'cool dad' balance of bad jokes and good guidance.
Could he make the dragon balls? She asked him for the second time, and he turned his head away slightly. On the namekian's face was the expression of someone tantalizing another with a secret. His small smile broke out into a grin, but he quickly regained his composure. "Of course I can!" He said with a chuckle, as if he hadn't a care in the world about the dragon balls.
And with that, he suddenly broke off from their stroll and walked in a perpendicular direction. "Oops! I simply forgot... I really should be going now!" He was teasing her, knowing she would want to know more about the dragon balls, but enjoying his little secret, and honestly, not wanting to talk about such mystic and important relics to a cultural outsider at the moment.
"We'll meet up again, I'm sure," he told her as his body became enveloped in a holy yellow-white light, and then disappeared entirely. He had something more important to chase.
