Oniona flew steadily towards the tiny island that belonged to master Roshi. She watched her reflection in the sparkling blue water as she skimmed close to the glittering surface. Her Orange Kame Gi ruffled in the breeze as she flew. They sky was completely clear, a beautiful shade of turquoise. Her long spiky jet-black hair covered her right eye as always and it rode down her back to her waist, her tail was wrapped tightly around her waist. She could see fish in the water and she heard her stomach rumble.

How long had it been since everyone had last been together? Almost five years, maybe six? She remembered the days when she was out with Bulma and Goku chasseing after the Dragonballs. She was only seven or so back then, but she had served as the main source of protection. Besides her power being so unusually high she had a tail, making herself feel that much weirder.

Oniona felt the Ki signatures of everyone as she approached the island. Roshi her old teacher, her old training partners Goku and Kuririn, then Bulma and another Ki that she was unfamiliar with.

She wondered who it could be. The Ki was definitely young yet unusually high. Could one of her friends have possibly gotten married? She couldn't help but laugh at the thought of Goku changing a diaper.

The small island came into view in the middle of the vast expanse of water and her eyes confirmed what she had sensed. She sped up causing the water behind her to go into a large wake.

Oniona's feet soon touched down in the soft sand of the beach on Roshi's small island. It was only about She looked up to see the small pink house with 'Kame House' on the side. Then her eyes came into contact with Goku's goofy smile.

"Hi Oniona!" Said Goku.

"Hello Goku!" Oniona replied with a big hug.

Kuririn, Bulma and Roshi had come out of the screened door of the house and approached her also.

"Think you could spare one of those nice hugs for an old guy like me?" Roshi asked hopefully.

"Oh shut up you old fart!" Bulma said slapping him in the back of the head.

"Heh Heh. Good to see ya Oniona!" Kuririn laughed.

"You too" She replied looking down to see a small kid behind Goku's leg. "Oh hello there." She knelled down to be eye level with the child.

Goku looked down and realized that she wasn't talking to his boots. "Oh! That's Gohan! He's my son! We named him after your grandfather."

"Son?!" She asked surprised, "Wow! GOKU! You got married!!! It was Chi Chi wasn't it!"

"Well, yea." Goku said looking at his feet.

"I knew it! I knew you two were meant for each other!! Is that a Dragonball on his hat?"

"Yea. We've been collecting them for a while."

"HE'S SOOOO CUTE!!!" Oniona continued. "How old are you little guy?"

"Uh... four." He replied coming out from behind his father and bowing.

She gave him a warm smile. "You have quite a Ki there, are you going to be a fighter like your dad?"

"No. . . Mommy wants me to be a scholar she says."

"Aww. That's too bad." Oniona said disappointed.

Roshi suddenly tuned his head to the east. Everyone but Bulma and Gohan soon did the same. Oniona could fell it, a Ki, a dark Ki and amazingly powerful.

"It's a bad Ki." Roshi said dryly.

"What is it?" Bulma asked the group.

"An evil power is headed toward here." Goku said.

"Piccolo?" Bulma asked nervously.

"No, no this one is worse. Much worse." Roshi answered her.

After a few seconds a dot became visible over the horizon. Soon the dot came into view. A man. He wore black and brown armor and had a strange green device over his right eye. He had long spiky black hair down to his calves. He looked like he'd been pissed of one too many times today. He landed in front of the group, and glared at them. Oniona had an unusually bad feeling about this guy.

"You!" He said, pointing at Oniona.

"What?" She asked back looking from left to right. Goku and Kuririn were in fighting stances, Bulma and Roshi were behind them. "Me?" She asked pointing at herself.

"Your Oniona are you not?" He asked getting impatient.

"Yea, who are you?! Why are you here?" Oniona asked back.

"Oh no. How the hell could you have forgotten!?" The man asked in disbelief. He put his hand on his face. "Must have hit your head when you were young. . . hard."

"Yea. I kind of rammed into Goku's head." She said smiling, remembering what great friends they became, " . . . How did you know?"

"Uhgh! Never mind! I'm Raditz! A Sayajin as are you Oniona!" He barked.

"I'm a what?" She asked confused. Goku and the others also had similar looks of confusion on their faces.

"Oh come on!" Raditz mumbled, "A Sayajin! Only the greatest warrior race in the universe!! When you were an infant you were sent to this planet to decimate the population so to make it suitable for purchase by our clients."

Oniona and the others stared for a few moments absorbing the unbelievable news. The waves on the shore could be heard in the scilence.

"I'm here to see how you've done." Raditz broke the scilence. "Apparently, you've failed-- miserably."

"I don't believe you." She said.

"Look." He said unwrapping his tail from his waist. "You have a tail right?" Oniona twisted her waist to see her swaying tail behind her. "You're a Sayajin."

"I think our visitor might be right." Roshi piped up, he then explained how Gohan had found her in a space pod and how she had gone on a small rampage before she had knocked her head on Goku.

Oniona looked at the spiky haired man for a moment. "You should know I would never hurt anyone or anything on this plant. I will do all in my power to protect it. It's my home." She stated firmly.

"Your home is planet Vegeta! Although a meteor destroyed it. . . Making you one of the few surviving Sayajins and the only female Sayajin at that."

Oniona was slightly unnerved by the way he had said that last comment. "So what do you want now?"

"Well, I'll be lenient on you. If you finish your job and kill the population on this ball of dirt I'll forget this whole embarrassing ordeal. Then I'll take you back to our station planet." Raditz said smugly.

"No." Oniona said back glaring at him.

"Well," Raditz spat taken aback at her answer, "I remember the females being week, but you, you're pathetic!" Oniona clenched her teeth together, "These humans must have warped your mind over the years. I pity you Oniona."

"Just leave, now." Goku said from her side.

"Shut up human!" Raditz yelled, he looked at the small child behind Bulma. "Hmmm . . ."

Raditz took a step forward and suddenly zanzokened behind Bulma and grabbed Gohan. Before anyone could turn around he had jumped backward to the opposite edge of the island.

"Holy shit!" Bulma yelled after realizing how close he'd been to her. She then scrambled to regain her position behind everyone.

"GOHAN!!!" Goku yelled running toward the Sayajin. He reeled his hand back to strike but Raditz simply swatted Goku away with his tail.

"Goku!" Kuririn yelled not moving from his position. Oniona didn't move either.

"Don't even try it." Raditz said pushing a button on the side of his weird eyepiece. He then started to laugh. "HA HA HA! Your power level! It's so low!"

Goku stood up, holding the spot where Raditz had hit his stomach. Oniona realized that Raditz couldn't sense power levels.

"I have a deal for you Oniona." Raditz said smiling while holding a crying Gohan under his arm, "If you kill 100 humans in 24 hours and show me the bodies I'll let this thing live."

"You bastard!" Oniona shouted.

"Heh, quite." He laughed, and with that he took off in the direction he had come from.

"NO!" Goku cried.

Oniona put her hand on his shoulder. "Hey, we'll get him back."

"Yea Goku! Don't worry! Oniona can take that guy!" Kuririn added.

"No she can't." a grim voice said from behind them.

"PICCOLO!!" Goku snapped.

"Why are YOU here?" Bulma asked, sure any of the warriors here could take him.

"None of us can beat Raditz. That's why I'm here." Piccolo answered. "I ran into him earlier and I know none of us alone can beat him.

Oniona realized what he was suggesting. "A truce?"

"Yes."

"A truce?! Hey! Oniona! You should know he can't be trusted!" Kuririn said.

"No, I can't be, but I can't have Raditz here if I'm to conquer this damn planet!" said Piccolo in his usual manner.

"He's right though." Oniona said after a moment, "If we want to defeat this guy we're going to need his help."

"When we defeat him the truce will end though." Piccolo warned.

"Yea Yea. . ." Oniona said, "Then it's back to trying to beat me, again." She sighed.

Goku looked off in the direction they had seen Raditz take off in. "How can we find him? He's too far away to sense his Ki now."

They stood for a moment and Bulma suddenly looked up. "That's it!"

"What's it?" Kuririn asked hopefully.

"The Dragonball on his hat!"

"Of course!" Oniona said brightly.

"What?" Goku asked confused.

"Bulma we'll need the Dragon radar!" Oniona said quickly.

"Right!" She pulled the watch-like device from her pocket taped the button on the top and handed it to Oniona.
Oniona watched as a bleeping dot flew away from the center of the screen. "Ok. Goku?"

"Yea!" He looked up hopefully.

"I- I think, it would be best if you stayed behind. . ." Oniona said with a bit of regret.

"But!"

"Sorry Goku. I don't think it would be a good idea. If you came you might get in the way. Raditz could use our friendship against us. Then he might take two hostages instead of one."

"Your right." Goku said sadly, understanding the situation. He sat in the sand of the beach.

"Don't worry I'll bring Gohan back safely." She reassured Goku.

"Hurry up, Oniona." Piccolo growled "Raditz is getting farther ahead."

"Ok." She said over her shoulder. She gave Goku a small kiss on his cheek and took off into the air. She watched Kuririn, Bulma and Roshi crowd around Goku trying to offer comfort as she flew into the air. She sped up some more and pulled out the Dragon Radar.

She glanced over at Piccolo flying beside her. She watched him for a moment half expecting him to attack her. Oniona looked down at the dragon radar. The bleeping dot had stopped moving. At least they could catch up to him now. She wondered if she could stop this crazy guy with Piccolo's help.

As they continued to fly silently she began to wonder about what Raditz said. She was a Sayajin, an alien from a planet called Vegeta. It definitely explained a lot of things about her. Especially the tail she had.

She felt Raditz's Ki come into range. She didn't need the radar anymore, she put it in her pocket.

"We're close now." Piccolo said

"Yea." Oniona acknowledged.

They spotted Raditz sitting on a rock near a big crater in the middle of a large clearing about the size of two football fields. It was surrounded by trees on one side and mountains on the other. Piccolo and Oniona landed fifty yards from Raditz who glanced up to see them.

"Oh, Hello again, and Oniona your done already?!" He asked surprised.

"No. We're here to get Gohan back." Oniona said.

"And kill you." Piccolo added causing Oniona to look at him surprised.

"Well I'm afraid I'll just have to kill you then." Raditz said disappointed. "Such a shame our race won't have a chance of reproducing ever again."

"Shut up asshole." Oniona letting her tong slip.

"Oh well." Raditz said lifting his hand and switching his device on again. "Heh. 322 for our green friend-- and-- 347 for the little girl. You two don't stand a chance.

"Maybe." Said Piccolo confidently tuning to Oniona. "You wear weighted clothes right?"

Oniona smirked. "Oh yea."

Piccolo then lifted his turban and shoulder pads throwing them far away from himself. They landed with a loud thud on the ground.

Oniona grabbed her shirt and pulled it off. She tossed it away and it landed with a loud thud also. She then took off her boots and pulled out the two metal plates in both of them and put her boots back on her feet.

Oniona saw Raditz's surprise on his face at their power increase or was it because she didn't have anything on under her Gi's top? She was sure the increase would have to be enough. She gave Raditz a smirk.

Oniona flew towards Raditz and began to punch at him. All of her furious punches were blocked easily. Suddenly Piccolo came up behind Raditz and tried to land an attack from behind but Raditz gave Oniona a fierce uppercut to her jaw and continued around over his head, blocking Piccolo. Oniona regained her balance quickly and kicked at Raditz's right leg only to be kicked with his left and have Piccolo smashed into her.

The pain began to surface from the uppercut. Piccolo jumped up and off her. She got up quickly and looked at Raditz, he wasn't breathing hard at all, although he did look as if he'd tried a little. Oniona wiped her mouth and blood streaked across her arm. She saw Piccolo was breathing harder than she was. She looked back at Raditz who gave her an annoyed look.

"I think I can get him" Piccolo said quietly, "I'll just need a few minutes to charge it up."

"Right." Said Oniona moving further away from Piccolo.

"You two are nothing. I'll still spare you Oniona, if you give up now and complete your mission." Raditz said.

"No."

"Your funeral."

"I don't think so." She said bringing a grin onto her face. She moved her arms to her side and spred her legs apart. "KA . . . MEEEE . . ."

"What are you doing girl?"

"HAAAMEEEEE . . ."

"What the. . .?"

"HA!"

Raditz didn't see it coming until she threw her hands out. It was still too late to doge. He tried to move but was too slow. Oniona watched as his body impacted with the bright ball causing an immense explosion.

The dust cloud stayed up for a few minutes. Then it drifted away to reveal Raditz, totally unharmed. Oniona couldn't believe her eyes.

She looked at Raditz trying to form a new plan and saw his tail wasn't wrapped around his waist anymore. She gave Piccolo a glance. He had seen it too. She gave him a nod. Oniona threw three fast Ki blasts at Raditz and ran behind Raditz who was charging up his own blast to deflect the three coming in. She grabbed his tail and pulled with all her might.

There was a screech of pain and then an explosion as Raditz was hit by all three blasts. When the smoke cleared though, Raditz was still standing. Oniona gave his tail another tug. He screamed again. She kicked him in the back and he fell over.

"Now, here's my deal." Oniona said tugging his tail again causing a whimper to be expelled from his mouth. "You leave the planet now, give Gohan to me and we won't kill you." She tugged again to make her point.

"Don't give him that chance Oniona. He'll come back." Piccolo said still charging his blast.

"NO! No! I won't! I promise! I'll leave!" Raditz said in a weakened voice. "I won't come back!"

"Good you see it our way." Oniona said loosening her grip on his tail but not letting go.

"Ha!" Yelled Raditz as he reached behind himself and pulled on Oniona's tail. She let out a scream of pain and grabbed for her own tail as Raditz shot out from under her. "Now you two die!"

Oniona and Piccolo jumped out of the way of a tremendous blast. It exploded and sent them flying further. Oniona felt rocks pelting her skin as she got up. She looked up in time to see Raditz hit her in the stomach then pummel her with hits to her face. She fell back to the ground, she lay unmoving the pain was too great.

She watched with watery eyes as Raditz gave her a final painful kick and flew away to confront Piccolo. She tried to get up but she couldn't feel one of her feet and her arms weren't responding either. She watched as Piccolo was also beaten. She suddenly felt a rumble and saw a small figure ram into Raditz. He had caused Raditz to fall to the ground.

Oniona could feel her arms again. She got up and wavered a few seconds before the world became clear again. "What the..." She looked to see Gohan was lying on the ground in front of a slightly injured Raditz. She could barely control what she instincitivly did then. She ran as fast as her legs could take her. She slammed into Raditz's back and latched on with every ounce of power she had left.

"Piccolo!" She yelled, "Shoot him! NOW!"

Piccolo got up of the ground with urgency. He looked over to see Oniona restraining the weakened Raditz. Piccolo put his fingers to his forehead. She watched for what seemed like an eternity as a light grew on the tips of his fingers.

"Two birds with one stone..." murmured Piccolo, he grinned as he threw his hand in front of him and a beam of light was cast faster than a bullet right at them. Oniona thought of letting go to get out of the way but Raditz might too. So she held on.

Oniona heard a loud crack and felt a jolt in her chest. Suddenly she didn't feel any of her injuries. In fact she felt kinda good, light. She fell on her back and that seamed like landing on a bunch of feathers. It was so comfy lying there. She could hear some whispers coming from somewhere. Something that sounded like Piccolo talking about the Dragonballs then something sounding like Raditz laughing. She felt tired. So she closed her eyes and her vision went dark.
She died.
