"Whew, I'd better pick up the pace if I want to make Bulma's by this evening. Although after I reach there I'm not really sure on where to go." Thought Gohan as he flew along, "If I go home I'll get into trouble, but if I stay out all night I'll still get in trouble. Hmm, maybe I can stay with Bulma, nah, if mom calls Bulma she'll tell her I'm there and then I'll really be in trouble, Hmph! I really am in a pickle now."
All of a sudden Gohan stopped in mid-air as he registered a familiar power reading nearby. "Piccolo! Of course! I can spend the night with him. Mom won't be mad at me if I tell her I had supervision. Haha, kind of a sleep over. I'll just take this over to Bulma's and leave it with her and then come back here, ha. This might just be a good night after all."

*30 Minutes Later*
"Now let's see, I KNOW that power reading I got came from around this area SOMEWHERE. Hmm, Piccolo's pretty good at covering his tracks, this isn't going to be easy. Oh well, here goes…" Gohan thought as started looking for Piccolo.

*Rominsa's Cavern*
"Well now. Now that I have Langer's coordinates I will go and crush him like a spot of tree pulp in an elephant's pen." (Authors note: Does anybody have a clue what this means? I wrote it and I forgot what I meant! Wahh!) thought Rominsa determinedly. And with that thought she changed her shape into that of a giant rock beast from Stollar. Her skin turned to a tough, supple, bluish leather as her teeth descended into four razor sharp elongated canines capable of tearing titanium. She shrunk so in height so quickly that it looked as though she was being sucked down a storage well. When the change was complete were once stood a tall, slender and tough humanoid female now stood what looked to be a short, compact, blue, razor-fanged sculpture. Suddenly however, the sculpture burst into a trillion fragments of blue stone and out of the rubble came a giant blue rock beast, the most feared beast on four legs in 20 dimensions.
"Beware Langer, Beware……………" thought the beast savagely as she walked towards the surface lift. "Beware…"

*Kami's Tower*
"Hmm, someone's coming this way, let's see, Gohan? What's he doing out here at this time of night?" wondered Piccolo as he lay underneath a tree.
Seconds later Gohan lands nearby, "Here we are, ha, found him, hmm he looks like he's asleep, maybe I shouldn't have come." Thought Gohan as he looked around and spotted Piccolo stretched out underneath the tree. As Gohan prepared to leave he remembered what was waiting for him at home, his mother's fury. "Hey, maybe I should just stay here for the night anyway." And with that thought he curled up next to Piccolo and fell asleep. Beside him Piccolo was silent, lost in his own thoughts as he wondered what would make Gohan seek him out so late at night. "Oh, well," Piccolo thought to himself, "I'll ask him in the morning what he's doing here." And with that thought Piccolo fell asleep.
**************************************************************************** **************************************************************************** ****************************************************************
*Still Kami's Tower*
"Kami, maybe you should come and take a look at this." Said Mr. Popo, Kami's friend and compatriot.
"What is it Mr. Popo? Asked Kami as he came over to stand by the window as well. "Oh," he said as he looked out the window and saw Piccolo and Gohan fast asleep. "Well at least he has some friends other than us hmm Mr. Popo?" Kami said as he gazed at the slumbering pair. True Kami, true, but Chichi is bound to be really mad at Gohan in the morning." Mr. Popo said as he and Kami walked away from the window.
^Pssssst^
"Kami!" Mr. Popo exclaimed as Kami fell onto the floor. "What's wrong? What's going on?" Outside Piccolo awakened, shaken and in a cold sweat as the door to the tower burst open and Mr. Popo came running out screaming his name. Beside him Gohan stirred and mumbled "Hey, what's going on?" sleepily.
"Piccolo, you got to come quick," panted Mr. Popo, "Kami fell down (Authors note: stop snickering!) and he's not responding to me at all !"
"What????????" Piccolo said, "come on Gohan let's go take a look at this." Piccolo said as he ran towards the door which was hanging wide open. Inside on the floor they found Kami curled up into a fetal ball and shaking like he was freezing. "He's got a fever!" exclaimed Gohan as he put his wrist to Kami's forehead. "What happened to him?" this last was directed at Mr. Popo who was nervously standing in the doorway while the two examined Kami. "I don't know," the rotund entity replied, "we were looking at you and Piccolo sleeping and were walking away from the window when all of a sudden he cried out and just fell down like he is now." He said in a hurry.
"Well we have to do something. Piccolo, you're connected to Kami, you can find out what's going on?" asked Gohan as he looked at Piccolo. "I don't know but I'll try." Piccolo replied as he immediately went into a deep trance-like state.
"Well there's nothing more we can do now but wait and see if Piccolo finds anything, and if he did, then what to make of it. Till then though I guess we just have to keep Kami comfortable and wait to see if his fever drops. Okay, Mr. Popo?" Gohan said. "Right." Replied Popo, "All we can do is wait…."
