Hi all. I know I shouldn't be getting into this habit, but I have started a second fic and this is it. I am not taking a break from my first fic so I'll be working on both at the same time.
Anyway heres the full summary: A/U - Trunks, Goten, Pan and Bra has always been best of friends during their childhood, but they were torn apart for almost a decade, due to a move across Japan for Pan and Goten. Both sides losing all connections with one another and nearly forgetting them as life moved on. Will old friends will be reunited after the many years of being separated and will they actually remember each other when they get to college? T/P & B/G

Prologue
It was a normal Saturday afternoon, in the middle of fall, out in the country side near Tokyo as leaves of different colors made their way from the trees and cover the ground. The day has been chilly the entire time that Gohan and Goku started loading up two large moving trucks since around 10 o'clock.
The entire Sons family would have never before plan on moving from this single spot, but about a month and a half ago, that all changed. Gohan was offered a great job opportunity that pays well one day when he went in to work. His boss threw out the idea of a job at Gohan since he would still be working within the same company, but at a different branch in Kushiro. Once he told his family about the offer he got, just about everyone was excited about it, except for the young Pan and Goten. After Gohan gave it much thought as to it being a good idea or not to move, he came to the conclusion of a change would be nice and everyone started packing and of course ChiChi wanted to tag along for a change of living, but also she didn't want to be too far away from her son and his small family.
An 8 year-old girl with short raven-black hair, was lying on the leaves from under her favorite tree that was nearly bare. She had blue jacket on and looked up at the sky as her mind screamed, 'I don't wanna move…! It's not fair…' Tears started to run down her cheeks and she rubbed her eyes with the sleeve of her jacket.
A young boy with black hair, who looked like a mini version of his father, was a year older than the girl. He walked over and stood beside her, looking down at her. Obviously he was bored and had a frown upon his face. "Lets play a game."
She rolled onto her side to look away from the older boy. "No, leave me alone…"
"Why?"
"Because I said so…"
"Don't you be thinking that I don't feel the same…I don't wanna leave either…"
"So…"
"Well get over it…there's nothing we can do. Anyway, I heard that they'll be coming over before we leave… I don't think you want Trunks and Bra seeing you like this…"
"Knowing Bra, she'll be crying too…"
"Yeah and? I know you're tougher than this, Pan. You're acting like a little sissy girl."
Pan glared at the boy in front of her and pulled his leg out from beneath him, causing him to fall on the ground.
"Oww…What was that for?" He whined rubbing his rear end.
"I don't have to answer that; you should know already, uncle." She sat up, sniffling a little and crossed her arms in front.
He rubbed the back of his head sheepishly and laughed a little. "Now that sounds more like you than seeing you sulking, but don't call me uncle, Panny. Since I'm not too much older than you." Goten said.
"I'll call you whatever I want, got that?"
"Ok whatever you want but just don't call me uncle."
"Fine."
"So lets play." Goten said getting up and reaching his hand out to Pan.
"Whatever." She took his hand for a moment as Goten pulled her up off the ground. She pulled her hand away and then tapped him on the shoulder before running off. "You're it!"
"Hey, no fair! You can't do that!" Goten shouted and chased off after her.
"Well I just did, didn't I?" She laughed and stuck her tongue out.
After a little while of the two playing tag, a car pulled up and parked under a tree. Two kids hurried out of the car after seeing their friends playing around.
"You better go play while you still can." A blue-haired woman said.
"All right!" Trunks and Bra said and took off to catch up with the two running around in the open area.
"How in the hell do I always have to get dragged around here, woman?"
"Oh knock it off, Vegeta. You're to help Goku and Gohan load the trucks."
"Make me." Vegeta huffed.
"You're going to help or you're not going to get anything from me and you will not eat either."
"Whatever, I'll help this one time and only this time." Vegeta walked over to the house.
"Hey Vegeta!" Goku said as he walked out carrying a large box.
"Hmph."
"Oh Vegeta, just grab any box, would ya." Gohan said.
"Whatever."
'That was simple enough.' Bulma thought and found where both Videl and ChiChi were and joined them. "Hey ChiChi. Hey Videl."
"Oh, there you are Bulma." Both of them said then looked at the four kids playing tag.
"You guys excited about the big move being here already?" Bulma asked.
"Yeah, I can surely use a change location." ChiChi said.
"I am excited, but although it may be a good thing, it might be a bad thing too." Videl said watching the kids closely.
"What do you mean by a bad thing?" Bulma asked Videl.
"Well look at them. They're each others best friends and they'll be losing one another. I really hate to see them torn apart, although together, they cause a lot of trouble."
"Now that you mention it, I would have to agree…You guys will have to come visit when you can so not all ties are lost."
"We'll try when we possibly could get the time."
After a while of running around and playing games, the four kids jumped in a huge pile of leaves and sat there.
"I can't believe this'll be the last time we can play together…" Goten said sadly.
"Yeah, it bites big time." Trunks said.
"Yeah…" Both Bra and Pan said.
"I hope we do at least get to come back and visit some time…" Goten said.
"Yeah, at least." Pan said.
"Or vice versa."
"Vice-a-what?" Goten questioned and got smacked over the head by Pan as the three laughed at him. "Oww… Why you do that?"
"Because you're stupid and you need some sense knocked into you."
"You know vice versa? Another words, us visiting you." Trunks said.
"Oh, that would be fun." Goten said.
"Hey, come you four and get something to eat before it's all gone!" Bulma called out.
"Coming!" All four jumped up and made a mad dash towards the food, consisting of sandwiches, hotdogs, hamburgers, chips and dip, and more.
After they all ate and was at the least satisfied, but not full since there was that much to feed everyone to fullness, they went back to playing games once more. At least they could run around and have fun without holding back since in a way they are a like, but are completely different than other kids and they knew it.
Just the four of them would usually spend some time playing sparring games with each others, doing nothing more than hand-to-hand just for fun whenever they were together outside of school. On several occasions during school, there were only two of them that ever get into fights with other kids, needless to really say, Trunks and Pan. Those two seemed to be troublemakers, even if they didn't start anything, they still got in trouble and somehow ended up bring Goten and Bra into it with them. It wouldn't be hard for anyone to understand stand them if they knew their families background and what flows through their blood with the need to fight. But they have a different way of getting into trouble than just fighting, by pulling senseless, childish pranks. This didn't usually include Bra being involved, but for the most part, the other three. Pulling pranks on teachers, lunch room attendants, other students and on the one person that give them the worst punishments, Vegeta. Oh, how much they get in trouble after doing something horrifying to Vegeta gets them into deep water.
As the day wore on and the sun started to sink in the west, the house that was once full of belongings and memories is now empty and bare as the very last box was placed in the back of a moving truck. The three adults that were packing the trucks up, leaned against the side of one of the trucks to gain a few moments of rest from walking back and forth with boxes all day.
'Two less brats for me to worry about and no more damned pranks!' Vegeta thought as he clenched his right hand a little, thinking back to the last and most recent prank Trunks, Goten and Pan pulled. He grunted, mumbling under his breath, "I hated that damn can…!"
"What's that Vegeta?" Goku and Gohan questioned.
"Nothing…It's none of your business." Vegeta said cocking his head to the side.
"Come over here kids, it's almost time to go." Videl called out as they stopped what they were doing and slowly started to make their way over.
Bulma reached down into an ice box that had bottled water and sodas, but a single beer can tucked away in a plastic bag. She grabbed the beer can and removed it from the bag then grabbed two waters. "Hey Videl, ChiChi, watch this."
"All right." The two other women said.
Bulma walked up to Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan. "Hey, I think you guys deserve some water."
"Oh thanks Bulma." Goku and Gohan said as they received a bottle of water.
"And here you go Vegeta, you get something special." Bulma said hanging him the beer can.
Vegeta looked at the can for a moment. "You better not be trying anything."
"Do you really think I would?" Bulma said innocently and back up a little.
The four got over to where everyone else were and they all looked over at Vegeta with a can that looked familiar to Pan, Trunks and Goten as the three gained a smirk.
"Hmph." Vegeta went to open the can of beer and ended up getting shocked greatly trying.
Everyone rolled into a loud laugh, except for Vegeta. The kids were actually laughing a little louder than the adults, since they couldn't help to crack seeing Vegeta fall for that same trick twice.
He quickly threw the can down and raised his voice. "Damn it woman! I knew you were up to something!"
"Oh calm down Vegeta. I just couldn't resist."
"Stop making a mockery of me!"
"I can't believe you fell for it again!" Trunks, Goten and Pan said together, laughing and holding their sides.
"Just for that Trunks, double the time in the gravity room tonight for you!" Vegeta said.
"Awe man…"
"Vegeta, stop being so hard on him. He is only a kid."
"No, I will not have my son get away with making a fool out of me."
"Come on, Vegeta. You gotta admit it was funny." Goku said.
"I don't have to admit anything, you hear me, Kakarot?"
"Sure I do, but it was only a harmless childish act."
"Yeah? Well, you're just as childish as these four brats!"
"I know that."
Gohan looked down at his watch. "As much as we all hate goodbye-"
"Except for me." Vegeta mumbled.
"-we have to get going." Gohan finished saying.
"I understand." Bulma said then gave Videl and ChiChi hugs. "We're gonna miss you guys."
As everyone was saying goodbye, Pan and Bra were giving each other hugs and crying, but Pan was trying to hold back as much as she could.
"I don't want you to go…I'm gonna miss you too much…" Bra whined.
"Me too…I don't wanna go…"
"I'm gonna miss ya Goten."
"Same here…too bad this had to happen…"
"Yeah, I wonder what would happened if not."
"No idea and never will know."
"Hopefully we'll see each other again, somewhere and sometime."
"I hope soon."
The two girls broke their hugs and turned to the boys giving them hugs.
"I'm going to miss you, Goten…" Bra said with tears flooding her eyes.
"I'll miss you too, Bra." Goten said lightly patting Bra on the back for a moment then gently freeing himself from her grasp.
"I'm really going to miss ya…" Pan said nearly clinging onto Trunks.
Trunks just rolled his eyes at how his sister and Pan were acting; well it wasn't like Pan to actually cry. "Must you cry? I hate it when you do that." Trunks said trying to pry Pan away from him.
"I can't help it…"
Trunks sighed a little. "Sure you can't, but if it helps, I'll miss ya as well."
"Goten, Pan. Lets get going." Videl and ChiChi called out from the vehicles.
"Bye…" the two dark-haired kids said and headed over to where their mothers were getting in the vehicles.
"Come on, we better head home." Bulma said placing a hand on each on her kids shoulders and starting to direct them to the car.
"It's not far mommy…" Bra said.
"I know."
"Are we ever going to see them again?"
"I don't know."
The Briefs got to the car just as the Sons were pulling away from the house and the kids waved to each other until they were out of sight. Bulma got her kids into the car as well with Vegeta then took off home.

That it all for prologue. The first actual chapter is when everything will begin several years down the road. Well that's all I really have to say, so please leave me a review and I will update when I get the chance.
