Shira

For a couple of minutes after Trunks had got off the phone with Goten, we both had a miniature panic attack as we searched for Kiyomi.

"Where the hell did she go?!" I asked as I flew up into the sky so that I could get a better look at the carnival.

Trunks followed me. "Maybe she went to look for Goten? I don't know why though since she knew I was calling him."

"Kiyomi gets impatient when she's had lots of sugar."

"She's going to run from us, isn't she?" He asked nervously.

I sighed. "Most likely."

Suddenly we heard these horrible screeching and crackling sounds as if something large and metallic was breaking. Both Trunks and I turned at the same time towards the sounds just in time to see the ferris wheel quickly rolling down the pier.

"Kiyomi!" We both yelled at the same time, quickly speeding off towards the runaway ferris wheel.

By the time we got over there, Goten had already stopped it and was helping people off the now broken ride. He must have found Kiyomi before we did.

"What happened here, Kiyomi?" I asked as I touched down near her. "How did you break a ferris wheel?!"

"I touched it!" She chirped loudly.

Goten picked a piece of metal from the wrecked ferris wheel off his shoulder. "More like you punched it…"

"Kiyomi?" I asked calmly. "Why did you 'touch' the ferris wheel?"

"It was pretty and neon colored. I was just pointing it out to Goten-kun." While she explained this she began to twirl around slowly. Trunks, Goten and I all sweat-dropped.

"What is wrong with her?" Goten questioned as Kiyomi twirled faster.

"She had sugar." I said simply. "She should calm down in a few minutes."

Goten frowned. "Won't the sugar make her crash when it finally wears off?"

"No," I said, while putting my hand on Kiyomi's shoulder so she'd stand still. She was starting to make me dizzy. "She'll be fine. Just don't give her anything with sugar."

"Okay…" Goten said, still unsure.

"Ki-ki," I say, using the old nickname from when we were little to get her attention. Instantly, she was focused on me. "Would you like to ride the big metal dragon with Goten-san?"

She happily nodded her head yes and skipped back over to Goten.

"Okay, so Goten, you take Kiyomi on the roller coaster and Trunks and I can go to the games."

Trunks grinned. I could tell going over to the carnie games pleased him very much. "You want me to win you a plushie don't you?"

I grinned back at him. "The biggest one you can find."

Kiyomi

Wow! What a sugar rush. I think it's over now.

Goten-kun and I are gonna ride the roller coaster. We're in line now. Waiting, waiting, waiting. Sigh. Waiting is so boring.

"Hey, Ki-ki," Goten said, using Shira's childhood nickname for me. "You want to play a game while we wait or something?"

I looked at him curiously. He could probably tell how bored I was. Shira says it's really really easy to tell when I'm bored. "What game?"

"I don't know." He shrugged. "Or we could just talk."

"You need a nickname." I said suddenly.

"What?"

"Take the g and n out of your name and that leaves Ote. That sounds kinda like Otis. Your new nickname will be Otis!"

"Are you still on a sugar rush?" He frowned. "I don't want to be called Otis."

Now I frowned. "Okay, we'll come up with something else, I guess." Then I smiled. "We're next, we're next!" We made it to the front of the line.

Goten-kun laughed. "I love your exuberance, Ki-ki." The people started getting off the ride. "Hey, how'd you get the name Ki-ki, anyway?"

"That's just what Shi-shi always calls me."

"Shi-shi?" Aw…so adorable when he was confused.

"That's what I always called Shira. I'm Ki-ki, she's Shi-shi." I shrugged. Alright, we boarded the ride and the safety bar went down!

"It's starting," Goten-kun said as the ride took off.

"Whoohoo, whee, yeah!" I screamed. "Fun!"

"Hold on tight, Ki-ki.' Goten-kun said.

I lifted my arms above my head. "Look, Goten-kun! No hands!"

The ride twisted and turned and went up and down several hills before coming to an end.

"That was fun." Goten-kun commented before we got off the ride.

"So, Goten-kun, whatcha wanna do now?"

"Let's go find Trunks and Shira."

"Kay, let's go."

We found Shira standing next to a huge teddy bear plushie with a cowboy outfit.

"Where's Trunks?" Goten asked.

"Behind the giant teddy bear," Said a mysterious voice.

Ah! The plushie talked! "Shi-shi, why is your plushie talking?!"

Shira snapped her head up in surprise and stared at me.

"The teddy bear is not talking." Trunks said moving the bear out of the way. And then he frowned at me. "What did you call Shira-san?"

"Shi-shi." I said, looking at Shira who was still staring at me. "That's what I used to call her. And she called me Ki-ki." I explained, frowning at Shira as she frowned at me.

"Aw," Trunks teased Shira. "Shi-shi? That is so cute."

Shira reached over and punched Trunks in the stomach.

"Ouch!" He complained loudly. "What was that for?"

"Don't call me that." She said to him. Then she looked at me. "And I thought that you grew out of calling me that."

I frowned at her. "I don't grow out of anything…"
