Chapter Seven: The Gift of a Name
I awoke in the morning with an enormous black bruise on my left arm from where the implant broke, it kind of hurt but it was ignorable for me. Everything around me was desolate and barren; the fight had turned the surroundings that way. But then I saw something in the ash. I picked it up and dusted it off. It was a small orange orb with seven black stars on it. I thought it was pretty so I put it away, perhaps It could serve as some sort of jewelry. Pangs of hunger started to hit, I was starving. That's when I remembered that I had some rations that I had saved in my space pod.
I had around 60 percent of my energy now compared to the 7 percent I was fighting with the other night. I savagely tore through all my stuff, stuffing anything into my mouth that was edible, there wasn't much of it though, and it didn't satisfy my appetite, but it would have to do. I didn't want to stay on this planet any longer and blasted off into space, not caring where I ended up just as long as the place had food. I fell asleep inside my space pod. When I awoke, I found myself on a green and lush planet. The sky was green. I looked around for any vegetation the planet might have or any animals that may be edible. I searched and searched but only found a few small fruits that I eagerly ate. I finally got some luck when I spotted a large animal. I stayed silent and in the bushes ready to go in for the kill when all of a sudden I heard a scream, I directed my attention towards it. I group of space bandits were pushing around the inhabitants of the planet, looking for any valuables they might have. The Nameks seemed too weak and docile to fight the bandits, and they scared off my food, so I put my cloak on and attacked swiftly. They seemed pretty weak to me, even when I wasn't at 100%, it was sad really. I ended up slapping the bandits around easily with a few punches. A couple of the bandits got the message and ran away, the more stubborn ones foolishly stayed and died at my hand. A few of the more trusting of these Namekians approached and seemed pleased that I helped them, I drew back my cloak and revealed my face since none of them seemed to want to hurt me. "Thank you for helping us." A small one said. I didn't expect to see any female nameks since I knew this race was asexual. Since I did use up some of my energy scaring the bandits off, I was somewhat weakened and fell to one knee. More namekians grew concerned. "Are you alright?" A husky one asked me. "Yeah, I think I will be ok after awhile, I was in a huge battle about two days ago (it took me one day to get to Namek in my ship)." I said. That's when an older namek approached me and told me to stay completely still. I did as he said and he put his hands out over my body. I began to feel strange yet better every second, before I knew it I was completely healed. I was surprised at how great I felt and jumped around a bit to see if it was real; it was. "Thank you for healing me, I feel great!" I exclaimed. A couple of namekian children laughed. The namekins offered me lodging for awhile and I helped some of that village of namekians become better fighters. They brought out something in me that I had never brought out before; they brought out my carefree side, my kinder side. One day a namekian by the name of trumpet asked me a good question. "What is your name?" he asked "Well, I never thought about that. I guess I don't have a name." I said Trumpet looked at me oddly, just then a namekian child approached me, he had heard the question; and this was a namekian kid that liked to watch me train. "I got an idea for what your name could be. Your name could be Millina, because even if someone searched a thousand years or more; they could never find a saiyan like you." He told me. I rather liked the name Millina and nodded to him. "Thank you, I like that name." I said. He looked in a joyed way from knowing that I would call myself by that name from now on, that my name is Millina.
