Author's Note: No I haven't given up on Twilight's Kingdom. I will continue to work on it. I just had this great idea for a fic and I had to write it down. It's a Mirai Trunks and Pan story. Why? Because I like Mirai Trunks better than I do the other Trunks. Future Trunks seems more mysterious and dashing than the other Trunks. Plus I have to say that I love his Capsule Corp jacket! I would love to have it. Maybe on day I will become a fashion designer and have my own line that is inspired by anime. Anyway, back on track. No I don't won Dragonball Z or GT. So don't rub it in okay!

~Pan~
"Why? Why does this always have to happen to me?" Pan sobbed as she began packing up her things into her two well warn suitcases. "What did I do to deserve this?"
Two days ago Pan had returned from Oxford, where she was attending college. (a/n: Hey! She has Gohan for a dad. You expect her to go to any other school?) She had been so excited to see her friends and family. She was also excited to tell Trunks exactly how she felt about him.
While she was in Oxford, she had discovered that she was in love with Trunks. Completely and madly in love with him. She had hoped that he would feel the same way about her but all of her hopes and dreams came crashing down as soon as she got off of the plane.
~Flashback~
"Panny!" Gohan and Videl shouted as soon as Pan stepped out of the terminal.
Pan's face lit up in a huge smile as she dropped her carryon bags and rushed to greet her mothers and father. "Mum! Dad!" Pan cried.
"It's good to have you back Pan." Gohan whispered in his daughter's ear.
"It's good to be home Dad." Pan replied with the famous Son smile.
"Oh listen to my Granddaughter! She has an accent!" Chi Chi cried as she hugged Pan when Videl and Gohan were through with her.
Pan laughed. "That's what happens when you spend five years in England, Gran."
Goten quickly grabbed Pan and swung her around. "I missed you Pan-chan! I didn't have anyone but Bra to bug and that gets old!"
Bra smacked Goten on the arm playfully. "Watch it buster!"
Goten put Pan down. "Yes ma'am."
Pan laughed again and hugged her best friend. "Okay, now I want a list of all of the best shops in London, so just in case I ever go there. I will be prepared." Bra told her.
"Will do."
"We're glad that you are back Pan." Bulma said as she walked over to Pan and gave her a hug. "Just remember, if you need a job. There will always be on at Capsule Corp for you."
"Thanks Bulma-san."
Pan looked over at Vegeta. He nodded a greeting and looked her over once. "You look as if you have gone weak brat. Don't they have any dojo's in that country?"
"They do and I haven't gone weak. I can still give you a challenge." Pan replied quickly.
"Well see. Gravity room tomorrow at six."
"Vegeta! You can't challenge her tomorrow!" Bulma interrupted.
"Says who woman? I can do anything that I feel like."
"You know why you can't."
Pan gave Vegeta and Bulma a strange look. "Am I missing something here?"
"Uh...you will have to ask Trunks and Marron about this later. I am sure that they will want to be the ones to tell you." Bulma replied.
"Speaking of Marron and Trunks where are they? I wanted to talk to Trunks as soon as I got home."
"They are at Capsule Corp. Why don't we go there and you can visit with them."
Pan looked at Bulma strangely. "Why do I get the feeling that you are trying to hide something from me?"
Bulma ignored her question as Gohan and Videl ushered Pan to the car waiting outside.
As soon as Pan arrived at Capsule Corp, she knew immediately that something was going on. The entire house was covered with people. "Having one of your famous parties again Bulma-san?" Pan joked as she stepped out of the car.
"You could say that." Bulma replied.
Pan turned and looked at Bulma and then at the others. They all wore the same expression on their faces. All of them except Vegeta, he looked as he normally did. "Okay, what's going on? Why does ever look as if they are at a funeral?"
Before anyone could reply. There was a loud shout from the door of the Capsule Corp. "Pan! You're home!"
Pan turned to see her best friend Marron rushing towards her. "Oh, Pan! I am so glad that you decided to come for the wedding! I was so afraid that you would never want to speak to me again!" Marron said hugging Pan.
"What wedding?" Pan asked as she pulled away from Marron.
"You mean that you never got the invite?"
Pan shook her head slowly. "No. Once again I ask what wedding?"
"Pan…Trunks and I are getting married tomorrow at noon."
In one second, Pan's entire world came crashing down on her. She instantly knew why everyone was so reluctant to tell her where Marron and Trunks were. "I didn't know that you hadn't gotten the invite. I sent it to you dorm room."
"I…uh…had to switch dorms because my roommate wanted to room with her best friend instead of me. I guess that your mother and father didn't tell you. Wow…you and Trunks huh? Congratulations!" Pan said trying to cover her shock.
"You aren't mad at me?"
"Why should I be mad at you?"
"Well…everyone but Trunks knew that you were in love with him before you went to Oxford."
Pan laughed at the comment. "I was, but not any more. I am so happy for you Marron. So tell me when did you two fall in love?"
As Marron and Pan walked into the Capsule Corp, Gohan turned to Videl. "Well, she handled that much better than I though she would."
Videl shook her head sadly. "No Gohan, she hasn't handled this. All that we just saw a few minutes ago was an act."
~End Flashback~
Once Pan was finished packing her things. She pulled a piece of paper out of one of her notebooks and quickly wrote a note to her mother and father.
Dear Mum and Dad,
I am sorry to have to do this to you, but I need some time alone. I'm not sure where I am going, but don't worry. I know how to take care of myself and I will be fine. Tell Trunks and Marron that I wish them many years of happiness. Remember that I love you. I'll come back when I am ready to.
-Your daughter
Pan
P.S. Tell Dad that he won't be able to find me. I borrowed Bumla's ki blocker, so he won't be able to find me.
Pan took the note and placed it on her bed. She then walked over to her bedroom window and opened it. A few seconds later, she took off into the night sky.

Mirai Trunks drooped to his knees in front of his mother's grave. He began sobbing as the rain poured down on his head. He was alone now. He had nothing left. Ever since he had defeated the androids, his world had slowly been dying. Almost everything that he had known was gone.
Trunks sat there in the rain for hours. Wishing that the earth would swallow him up and end his pain. When the rain finally ended, Trunks slowly stood up. He stretched his tired legs and began slowly walking towards his empty home.
As he did Trunks looked up at the sky. "Are you happy now Kami? All that I have is gone. There is nothing left for me here. All that I have worked for is gone. The only satisfaction that I have is, knowing that the past version of me is not going to have to deal with this pain!"
It was then that it hit him. The past! He though to himself. That's where I can go! There is nothing left for me here. At least in the past I will be able to see my family and friends alive!
A small smile appeared on Trunks' face as he raced off towards Capsule Corp. As soon as he arrived he raced into his mother's workshop and turned on the lights. As he did, memories came flooding back to him. Trunks blinked back his tears and began looking everywhere.
After a few moments he found what he was looking for. In the corner of the workshop, covered with a large sheet, was his time machine. Trunks pulled the sheet off and smiled. He quickly opened the door and began checking all of the instruments.
As he checked the control panel the main screen of the machine lit up and his mother's face appeared. "Hello Trunks. If you are watching this then the one thing that I feared the most has happened. I have died and left you alone." Bulma began.
"Since you are watching this then I can assume that you are deciding to go back to the past. Which is exactly what I want you to do."
Trunks stared at his mother's image. On the screen Bulma let out a laugh. "I can just picture you now. Sitting in the chair, with your mouth hanging open. Wondering if you hear me right. Yes Trunks, you did. I want you to go to the past. I doubt that there is nothing for you here. At least in the past you can start a new life and at least be happy. I already packed cloths and enough food to feed a sayin for at lest two years. So you should be fine. Take care my son. Know that I will always love you no matter what."
With that the screen went blank. Trunks reached out and touched the screen. "Goodbye mother."
He then reached over and pushed the ignition button. A few seconds later the time machine disappeared into the past.
