"Heh." Was all that Couric said as he leapt off the rock and 'landed' on top of the water, actually floating a few centimeters above it so that it seemed like he had. He took off once more, the bees still in pursuit.

'Leaping' up, Couric just barely managed to avoid tripping over a small 'cliff', if it could be called that, where the water ran down from. He had a pretty good feeling that if he kept on his way, he'd probably run into some sort of lake.

/Well...I probably shouldn't keep this up much longer...I do need some rest after all./ He noted, beginning to get tired of the pursuing bees.

Glancing at the water ahead, Couric decided that he should probably get rid of the damn bees sooner rather than later.
/Just a minute or so longer.../

And then he came to a halt, deciding to end this idiotic chase once and for all in the best way possible. And just as the bees drew ever closer...

Couric let gravity take over, figuring the river's water was at least deep enough for him to be completely submerged if he lay down. But the bees still drew closer and closer...!

A splash was heard and Couric found himself underwater, not even having to lay since the water was deeper than he could've ever expected.
/Wow...this river.../

He took a quick glance around, figuring that he might as well. His feet weren't even touching the ground underneath the water...something that obviously surprised the young saiyan.

He turned in the direction he had come, noticing something. The mini-'cliff' he had leapt over could be seen, a steep slope leading from it down further into the depths. But then again, the water couldn't reach that far down, could it? This was only a normal river, right?

/I wonder.../ He began, really about to consider seeing how deep the water went, but he decided against it and began his swim back towards the surface.

/I need to get some rest...I can always come back later and explore a bit, but for now..../ He looked around once he had gotten his head out of the water.

/Nope...I don't see any bees.../ He thought, not exactly in the mood to deal with the furious little bastards. After all, it wasn't like they could hurt him so why should he waste his time dealing with them.

/They must've not even noticed that I went underwater.../ He slowly hovered out of the river, keeping his eyes open to make sure the little bastards weren't near. It may seem like he was being too cautious, but if those things were still around, he'd never get peace.

Well, technically, that wasn't true. He could just outspeed the damn things considering how fast he could move if he actually wanted to. But Couric had forgotten for some reason or another.

"Well...as long as they're gone..." Couric muttered, trying to remember which way he had come from. He wasn't exactly sure, but he'd probably figure it out sooner or later.

Pausing as he realized something, Couric closed his eyes, about to slap himself upside the back of the head for forgetting an obvious method of getting back to where he had come from.

/How could I forget that? Goku's ki can't be missed and yet I forget completely that I was training near his dojo?/ The teen let out a sigh and tried to pinpoint where the mass of energy originated from on the planet.

Considering the sheer level of power Goku his and his comrades had, their energies practically washed over the planet. It wasn't as easy as one may think to get a fixed lock on their ki and know exactly where they were.

/Alright...I think I have a good enough idea.../ He thought, turning in the direction that Goku's ki was coming from and taking off at a rather quick speed. He could really use that nap...

It wasn't long before Couric left behind the grasslands, drawing ever closer to Goku's dojo. It wouldn't be much longer...Soon he'd get his nap and then he could continue his training in that form, hopefully to master it.
