Onni made a soft sigh as he threw himself on his bed. It was quite a thrill, Onni remembered, when he first saw a bed.
" A bed?" Onni asked Oolong.
" Well, yeah," Oolong grunted. " Where else would you sleep?"
" On the ground?"
Onni smiled slowly, even if the act hurt his sore cheeks from the punches he received all day. It was nice to not wake up with a sore or bruised back from sleeping of rocks. And he didn't have to wash his hair either to get rid of bugs and grains of dirt! Yes, the bed was a very, very useful item.
Onni shifted comfortably into the bed, which made some creaking noises.
" Hey Onni?" Onni opened his eyes and looked over towards the pig's voice, which stood in doorway.
" Evening, Oolong," Onni chirped happily. " What's happening?"
" I just wanted to congratulate you on your training today," the pig grunted. He shifted slightly, looking uncomfortable. Onni didn't seem to notice.
" Thank you Oolong," he said smiling.
" Are you tired?"
" A little. Why?"
" Kamiccolo wants to spar with you."
Onni raised an eyebrow, his smile dimming a bit, " Why?"
" Who knows?" Oolong shrugged his small pink shoulders.
" Well, all right." Onni moved to stand up and stretched lazily. He hoped it didn't show, but he was truly exhausted. Again, he thanked the person who ever made a bed, for he was sure he was going to sore for the next couple of the days from the beating the green giant had in store for him.
" Thanks Oolong," Onni said as he passed the piglet and made his way towards the outside of the palace. Maybe I should stretch before I spar with him…Onni thought. Why did he want to spar at 6 o'clock anyway? This was usually his meditating-
Onni rounded the corner and leapt back as his friends screamed, as loud as foghorns, " HAPPY ANNIVERSARY ONNI!!!" (With the exception of Kamiccolo)
Onni was simply bewildered as Puar hugged him tightly around the arm and Turtle nuzzled his leg affectionately. Smiling faces surrounded him not only from his Master, but also Master Roshi, Tein, and Chaotz. Even Onni, who was sure it was fading light of the sun, thought that he saw a smirk of Mr. Kamiccolo.
" W-what?" Onni muttered shakily.
" Don't you remember kid?" Yamcha smiled. " This was the first day you started my training, two years ago."
Two years ago. Had it really been that long? But as Onni started reflecting back, he realized it had been two years ago. Or nearly. Somewhere after midnight would be the exact time he had said 'yes' to Yamcha's question – Will you please save the world? Amazing…but Onni couldn't forget the day his mother died. It would be her anniversary soon too.
" Hey Onni," Yamcha broke through Onni's thoughts. " It's been two tough years. But it's behind us right?"
Onni grinned slowly and nodded, " Right."
*****
Onni breathed in deeply, taking in the dewy air around him. He sat at the edge of the Lookout, feet swinging back and forth by themselves by the uplifts of the wind. He was counting down the seconds until it would be midnight as he stared up a far distant star. It was quite faint but it immidately drew his attention and he found himself always looking at the faint point of light.
Ding. It was now exactly midnight. Onni's sensitive Saiyan ears heard his clock ring 12 times before it grew down to a quiet ticking sound. But he didn't hear the person who approached him behind. A thick arm wrapped around Onni's neck roughly and brought him back against a large and firm chest. Onni cried out but was quickly covered with a claw of the capturer.
" Shut up, kid," a gruff voice whispered in his ear. Onni immidately relaxed. It was only Kamiccolo. Slowly, after a few moments, the Namek's hand was removed.
" How did you know I was out here?" Onni asked within a gentle whisper. Kamiccolo let go of his hold on the boy and Onni made a soft thud as he hit the ground.
" I've been watching you for a few nights," the Namek replied, as if the question was a stupid one. " You always come out about this time."
" Oh," Onni replied, suddenly feeling foolish. He was always positive that no one was watching him on his little outings into the night.
" I noticed you were looking at a star," Kamiccolo said.
" Mm Hmm," Onni nodded and pointed to the dot of light in the sky. The Namek followed Onni's finger and the green alien's frown deepened.
" Have you noticed that the star moves, Onni?"
Onni blinked slightly and looked up to look at his favorite star. Indeed, only now did he realize that it did move.
" Not until now," the boy answered honestly and returned his gaze to his trainer.
" Well, boy, that is planet Vegeta."

(please
excuse Sita as she was deliriously tired when she wrote this and when she is,
she is extremely hyper ((aint that the weirdest thing?)) She thanks you all for
your compliments and loves writing back to you all personally. Anyone can e-mail her with questions if
desired, but she will not answer any questions that will revolve especially
around whose Onni's father ((:P!!!!)). Arigato, to everyone. ((damn I
love writing in third person! *laughs insanely)) )
