Summary: The day of one of Princess' celebration, is the day where her life take's a turn, causing her to become distant. All in All, you get a scared life, lost's of dear loved one's, and a silent killer.. Year's later, she rise's from the ashes with a goal: To kill. She will kill anyone who stand's in her way from reaching her target. ..If only she would have known He was close than she would have thought.

"I'm not leaving without you by my side..."

~~~~~~~~n.n

I didn't fully comprehend what was happening as I was too young to even remember most of it, but as I become older, My sense's sharpened, I've became known to the world as the world became known to me, and most importantly, I've become stronger.

It had to happen Twice for me to only get half of the knowledge I was seeking, Not including part of it has been kept from me my entire life..

Life is too short -I realized. You can't just sit back and watch thing's flow by. Bad or good, you have to make a move, even if it might ruin you, or save you..That iswhat I've learned, anyway's.

My love one's life's has been put on the line's, More obstacle's have been blocking my way from accomplishing my main goal. Many fight's to have me, and to kill me..all because my main enemy couldn't have his way.. He guided me through all of this, yet I was foolish to believe I wan't alone. But I was..

And because of this, I've been put to the test..

And This..is how my life became to be...

Prologue...

I sat in front of the mirror, staring back at my reflection. My once bright dark eye's, was now a paler coal Back, as they lost it's color. I sat still as one of the servant's gently combed my long hair.

I could see it..The resemblance of the look he had in his eye's. Cold. Distant.

'That day..His Birthday...'

Our Mother was dressed in one of her Best divine Gown. It's creamy silk..Very airy and elegant. It's long sleeve's that was covered in this white glittery silk, and most of the gown itself. A beautiful white lining on the upper part of the corset, and spreading on the side's, along with elegant swirl's going up. The gown stopping just above her knee's, trailing longer in the back. It flowed down to the crimson rug.

Her white heel's softly hit the crimson rug as she hurried down the hall, Pulling me along by the hand.

I was sorta use to this, for a small child like me. We always had celebration's for anything good, but this must be Important if my Mother was looking so worried.

"Gohan!" She called out. She quickening her pace down the long hall. I struggled to keep up with her. "Gohan!"

"I'm in here!" Came his voice, just a few door's down.

Opening the huge door, there we seen him sitting in front of his younger and my second oldest sibling, Goten. He adjusted Goten's Crown before standing back up, dusting his pant's of the imaginary dirt. "Sorry about that. He needed to change and the servant's wasn't to be found."

Placing her free hand on her hip, as she frowned slightly at the two. She opened her mouth to speak, but shooked her head, disregardful. "I don't even want to know." She muttered, before looking back up. "Will you two please hurry up, time is ticking." And with that, she lead the three of us to the balcony.

Sure, I've been out here, but you can never get use to seeing all the people, Our people, who worship us.

My feet lead me forward until I was fully looking over at the crowd. My small hand's gripping the bar's as I stared down at them.

Just then, they gave a loud cry, applauding. I couldn't help but blush and move back. I heard many cheered my name, and it just made me feel something that I wasn't use to.

I turned to run but ran into something. I looked up to see it was my mother. She grasped my hand's and lead me back to where I once stood. I hid behind her, only peaking out slightly. I glanced up at her, watching as she looked out into the huge crowd.

I can't really remember what she had said, but I knew everyone was cheering in the matter of second's, but it was when she had continued, it all died down. I looked back into the crowd to see the look on their face's..and right then, I knew something wasn't right.

Once done with her speech, a hard look was set on her face as she took a step back before giving the crowd her back. She lifted me into her arm's and I stared out curiously into their face's. They looked..worried.

Once she sat down in her seat, I noticed Goten was standing beside us. He had on what looked as a lost expression. But he soon snapped out of it when we heard Gohan's voice.

With every word he spoke would soon be forgotten, as we was too young to process this. Goten only being 7, and me being the age of 4. I could only wish I was able to understand what was to come, what word's was spoken. But I couldn't..

It wasn't long before the crowd was screaming once more. After that, we proceeded to head down stair's where we boarded a float, Starting the Parade. It was for both of their behave..My Father, and Gohan.

For our Father's return home, Gohan's becoming of the age 16, and both their departure.

It was upsetting to know that they both was to leave in a few day's: 5 to be exact. But there wasn't anything we could do.

And throughout those day's, has been full of sad memories that's been burned and long forgotten in my memory.

My Father, Son Goku, was a brave soldier and Warrior.. Strange for a king to be, but he made it possible. That is what I learn in future time after hearing great stories about him from My Mother, but being young, I just didn't believe such. Normally children would believe anything that anyone would say, but..Me..I was anything But Normal.

I admit, I Did look up to my Father, even though we rarely got to see him. But the word's he spoke to me, to us. Me and Goten that night..Hurt. I was starting to have Second thought's about him.

"When I come back, would be the day of Goten's 16th. Birthday. And on that day, I wish to tell you both a story..A story about.." He then chuckled bitterly to himself. "A story of who you really are..."

Only for that to be a lie as he never returned.

Until the next year of that Promise.

My 13th. Birthday.

Which was also the day of Goten's departure..

We both rode on the same float, out hand's clasped together, held up high, as we waved to the screaming crowd. Our Parent's sat behind us, also giving a few wave's of there own.

I stared into the crowd's smiling, yet sadden face's. It hurt's me to know that my last Brother was to leave on this day.. I didn't know what to do.. I was still too young, my voice wasn't big enough to do anything. I was so weak, and I hated it.

After the Parade, Everyone gathered together as they had a big feast. But our Father had different plan's. During the feast, Our Father had taken Goten out into the Garden as everyone else enjoyed themselves.

Goten trailed a feet or two behind the Taller man, and waited for him to explain his reason's for this.

Goku stopped, causing the young Prince too as well. "Your remember what I told you and Pan the last time we seen each other?"

"Yes. You said you wanted to tell us a story, though I forgot of what about."

"Correct." Goku let out an uneasy sigh as he glazed upward. "Were should I begin?"

"Don't you want Pan to be present?"

"That's the thing," Goku said, turning to look back to the teen. "She is never to know this. Ever."

Goten's eyebrow's creased in confusion. "But Father, you said-"

"I know what I said, and I've changed my mind. Thinking about it, thing's might end up differently on her part as she is a female, and your a male. So I find it no point in her ever find out the Truth..Well, in least Not yet anyway's."

"Father, I don't understand this.."

"Come," Goku motioned for him to walk on. "And I'll explain everything..."

And from there..I have yet to know the secret's of what our Father spoke that night...

During his last night's here on Earth, he got me alone in the Master bedroom and sat me down. The look in his eye's were pained. And the word's he spoke to me, crushed me. He said, "This might be the last time we'll ever cross path's with one another."

Of course, I did understand his word's, but the meaning, I couldn't say the same. I could feel my eye's watering quickly as I asked for a reason, but he said in due time, I will truly understand what he meant.

I watch as he stood up and walked toward's the enormous book shelf. He picked the book directly in the middle and turned to me.

He placed the book in my lap. I glazed at both in confusion before looking up at him.

"Truth.." We both said. I, in confusion, Him, sadly. "I had wrote this myself during my time gone. I had Gohan read it the night I touched down. I was going to let Goten read it as well, but I basically told him everything because I knew he wasn't going to be able to take it with him, fearing of him never returning.. You, my Dear Daughter, shall read this book's on your 16th. Birthday, and then and only then, shall you fully understand of everything.."

But I didn't.

I couldn't as the Book would be lost forever.

How, you may ask.

Well, right as everyone came to see the two aboard the ship, My Father stopped, causing Goten to stop in his track's as well. I could hear his voice. It was very low, only for Goten's ear's to hear, but somehow I managed to pick up on every word spoken as well.

"Goten, aboard the ship, and head off."

"What?"

Goku snapped his head so only one eye was visible, and he glared at his son. "I Gave you an order I expect you to follow them. Get on the ship and go!" He snapped.

Goten frowned at the man, but didn't say anything and hurried past him. Once on board, he turned to face the people, but his eye's was trained on my Father as the bridge was slowly retracting. And at the last second, his glaze switched on to me, and before I knew it, the door was closed shut tightly, and I couldn't help but let the tear's escape my eye's.

I ran, but My Father held me back. I kicked, I screamed, but yet, He held me from reaching to the door. Soon, my voice was drowned out by the sound of the ship coming to life, and I only fought harder.

"Pan!" My Father's voice boomed in my ear, and I flinched, struggling less now. "Calm down," He repeated over and over but My attention was to the ship that was blasting into the sky.

And in that instant, the light the Sun brought us, quickly vanished. I stopped completely, and my Father's head snapped to the skies. Together, we watched as many air ship's came out from behind the cloud's.

It wasn't long before our planet has quickly gone into war.

All of our people's scream's grew faint in my ear as I continued to glance up toward's the darker skies, watching a much enormous ship going over my head. I didn't notice my Father's present's was gone until I realized I stood there by myself. I turned around, and almost stumbled as many people pushed past me. But looking around, I couldn't stop him anywhere.

I can't remember why, or how..but I remember myself running. Running fast as I could. I ran alongside my people, making my way through them. I didn't know where I was heading, but I had to hurry. While running, I kicked off my shoes to help me quicken my pace.

When I came around the castle, I slowed down, as my eye's caught something laying in the soft grass.

When I stopped completely, I stared at the squared object. It was the book My Father had given to me the night before But, what was it doing outside in the open?

I walked forward slowly. My hearing becoming lost to the explosion's behind me. When I grew near the book, I stopped as I heard chucking. I looked up to meet with at tall figure, no older than Goten. I didn't even realize he was standing there!

His hair was a mixer of White, with a hint of a very light Lavender. His Silver was still bright even with the light of the sun was blocked. He gave me a small smile. "My Dear, won't you come to me?" He spoke. His voice was smooth as silk, which threw me off guard. He was so calm..Too calm for my liking's.

I shooked my head, "No," as I took a step back. I didn't know what he wanted from me. 'I never seen him around here before, so he must be bad.' Is what I thought to myself.

I heard him chuckle lowly before advancing toward's me. I didn't know why but as he neared me, I could feel myself getting even more scared. I had the chance to run, but I blew it by staying there, too afraid to move.

He crouched down on one knee in front of me, his hand's cupping my face. I stared into his smiling face. "Yes..my Darling. Relax.." He voice drawled out. Even when crouched down, I was still a head shorter than him.

My eye's widen when he lowered his face closer toward mine. His lip's hung over mine, only inches away. His breath fanned my face as we stayed like that for what felt like eternity. My eye's clearly showed how terrified I was as I stared into his half closed one's. I didn't understand the feeling that quickly over came me..My knee's almost gave out as my visioned blurred slightly. "I've been waiting for you," He spoke softly, before bringing his lip's over mine.

I could feel my heart racing, pounding hard in my chest. All the heat surfacing on my face. I gasped when his tongue brushed up against my lower lip's. My arm's fell loose at my side, my finger's twitching to break free of what didn't exist. His hand came over mine, halting my movement's, as he prod open my mouth and invade it. His tongue doing wonder's with mine.

I couldn't help but cower under him as I felt my being continue to grow weak. My eye's fell shut as I let out a discomfort moan, causing him to break apart. He glazed down into my dazed face. I almost fell to my knee's if it wasn't for him to grab me from doing so. My hand gripped his shirt weakly as I stared at the grass, my vision growing blurrier by the second. "My Darling, why don't you rest a bit." He exclaimed, lifting me up bridal style.

"No," I started out weakly, but I couldn't help but let my eye's slowly shut as they grew heavier. My body felt like a ton at the moment.

"Yes, my sweet. Sleep.."

"Pan!" Came a faint voice. But I recognized it as one of my servant's, Verlabell. "Pan!" And soon everything when Black.

The next morning, I found myself on my Balcony, staring out into the trashed city. My balled fist sat on the railing, as I tried to remember.. But it was no good. Everything..I remember Everything, But His face.. I couldn't remember what what he looked like.

Angrily, I turned back and entered my room. I stood in the center of the enormous room and stared at the ground, but as I did so, I noticed this charm: A Necklace. I recognized it as a sterling silver sphere bali Pendent. The small ball had elegant swirl's, with small diamond on each branch. But what really made the jewelry stand out was the a small dark blue orb swirling around in the center.

'Good morning, Princess.' Came a foreign voice.

I turned my head, slightly startled. At first, I thought someone was in the room with me, but after realizing that I was alone, I started to get even more scared.

'Please, you may not need to worry,' The voice spoke again.

It sound's as if the voice was in my head.. But that was crazy.

"Who's there!" I exclaimed, balling my fist. I reached behind me and pulled out my power pole and held it in front of me.

"Princess Pan.." The voice sounded more present now. From the corner of my eye, I seen the necklace glowed brightly as if it came to life. "Don't fret, Mistress."

I glanced down at the necklace with wide eye's. My first reaction was to yank it off, but then it spoke to me. "You mustn't fret for I mean you no harm."

"What are you- How are You-" I was at a lost for word's.

"Please, let me explain.." It started. "My name is Tomoya, and I will be the key to your success in life. I will assist you on your journey, as I have the power you require."

"Impossible! You can't say thing's like that-"

"If you do not believe me, try to take me off of you." And I did. Reaching up to find the clasp, I quickly grew angry as it wouldn't come un-done. I tried to lifted it over my head but only half way in doing so, a shock is what I felt go through my entire body, and I yelled in pain.

"Now you see. We-"

"Y-you..Shocked me." I quivered from the after-shock.

"Only to prevent you from separating us. I will Die without you, and you'll too die without me. And I couldn't let that happen. Like I said before, I could offer you so much."

Shaking my head, I asked, "Like what?"

"Skill's. Power. Knowledge. Guidance. These is what you need for your quest."

"Quest?"

"Yes. I know in your heart, you feel angry. Abandon. You want to kill, and I could help you."

Kill? What was this..this piece of jewelry talking about? Wait, I'm Talking to Jewelry.."Jewelry can't talk.."

"Correct, but I'm no ordinary pendant, as I demonstrated when I shocked you.."

I stayed quiet for a moment as I slowly proceed this. My Home planet had just gotten into War with a race I still don't know of, My necklace is speaking to me, and it Shocked me..And it keep's mentioning of some Quest... "..You mentioned a quest..What kind of quest?"

"Princess. I can feel everything your feeling. Your feeling helpless, anger, and most Importantly Small. I can help you accomplish your goal. I can take all the feeling you have away if you would just let me assist you."

"Accomplish what? You keep speaking such nonsense."

"You Do want to take revenge on the person who caused trouble for you and your people, don't you?"

I bit my lip lightly. How the heck did he know this stuff? I hadn't spoke to anyone of this, as the War was Just yesterday, yet this..Pendant knew everything! "He possibly killed your Second Older Brother as well. His ship Did leave right after the raid started." He Continued on.

"How do you know all this?" I found myself asking.

"Like I said, now that I'm apart of you, I know everything you know, and I could teach you everything I know."

"Impossible! How can't know Everything. We Just met!"

"Correct..Let me put this in other word's so you can understand. I know everything that happened since yesterday, and hopefully, I will learn more if you agree to let me assist you."

"..."

"Please, Princess. Allow me to show you what you are capable of."

"I can't."

"And why not?"

"Because then that mean's I'll have to leave my Mother behind. And I'm not going to put her through that. I won't do it. I'm all she's has." I whispered the last part.

"By you accomplishing this goal, you will help her by bring her closer to her dear loved one's. Your two Brother's. Though, I can't say for your Father.."

"What happened to my Father?" I questioned. Many Ideas popped into my mind but only one stood out the most.

"..."

"Tomoya." My voice was more forceful. I was slightly shocked with my own tone of voice, but it couldn't be helped. "What. Happened?"

I heard him give a little sigh before speaking. "I'm sorry, my Dear Mistress, he didn't survive the raid."

I sunk to my knee's as I stared straight ahead. My heart sunk into my chest as I could feel myself trembling slightly. H-he..Died...? "That Fool!" I bit bitterly. "Always playing the damn hero. He couldn't Possibly believe he was anything else beside's a human." I was wrong. He wasn't a brave Warrior, he was weak. A sad excuse for a King. He was rarely Here to begin with! He threw all the responsibilities onto My Mother's shoulder's and took of to Kami know's where!

"Princess, Please calm yourself. This is why I'm here."

I couldn't help but let the tear's fall down my cheek's. I angrily wipe them away, erasing all the trail's of any tear's from my face before moving my leg's so I could wrap my arm's around them, resting my chin on it..

"What is on our mind, Mistress?"

"..Tell me more about you teaching me..."

I slowly made my way down the spiral stair's. I was now dressed into a Dark lavender dress. It's corset was the perfect fit, white design's on either side's. Four layer's of ruffle's in front. The dress flowed outward and down til it touched the crimson carpet. that reached As I made my way down the stair's, I couldn't help but feel full of energy. My hair hung loose, passing my tail bone.

Making my way toward's the Dinning Room, I could hear hushed voice's. One belonged to my Mother, that I knew for sure, and the other One belonged to my Personal Servant, Verlabell, which I was shocked to find her there with my Mother.. The only time she would be seen with My Mother would be if she was to be informed of something involving with me, or in trouble, which was a rare thing. But by the sound of my Mother's tone, I could only assume it was the latter.

I stayed just behind the door's, listening closely to their conversation's.

"When I walked into her room, I found it on her! What do you have to say for yourself?!" Yelled my Mother in her hushed voice. After a few moment's, she let out a sigh before apologizing. "My Apologies, I should have never yelled."

The Women that sat across from the Queen held an emotionless expression. "You shouldn't apologies, my lady, for it was all my fault for not keeping a close eye on the Princess.." Verlabell exclaimed, bowing her head. After a few moment's, she spoke once more. "What do you suppose we do?" Verlabell asked.

"I honestly, don't know..." Chichi sighed. "I was afraid, afraid to take it off of her, fear he might had done something to her if I tried."

"Why didn't you come to get me. I would have dealt with the problem as it was my fault it happened."

"It wasn't your fault, Verlabell." Her lip's perched tightly as she shooked her head lightly. "I just Don't understand How she managed to get it."

'Go inside.' Tomoya's voice echoed in my mind lowly, and I gave a nod. Pushing open the door's, I took two step's forward. "Mother..Verlabell?" I watched as They both snapped their head's in my direction. My Mother's expression: startled, while Verlabell's remained emotionless.

After my Mother invited me to join the table, I sat opposite from Verlabell. I glanced between the two. My Mother looked to be in thought, as Verlabell stared past my head, also lost in thought.

As Breakfast was served, I didn't know what had come over me, but I was feeling rage. I was so angry for My Father's supposedly departure, the word's he spoke to my those night's, his death, Goten's departure and possibly death, and to top it off, the war we was at with some unknown planet I've had no knowledge of.

Dropping my fork on my plate, I felt my hand's curl up into tight fist's. I abruptly stood up from my seat, my fist clashed with the wooden table, my face hard as I stared at two in front of me. "I want to how to fight!"

This of course's startle's my mother once more. Once she regain's her composer, she stared at me with hard eye's. She then scold's me for my action's, but I waved her off. "I want to learn how to fight." I repeated, but more forcefully now.

This then leaded into an argument, but it seemed like luck was on my side as Verlabell backed me up on the matter, explaining it would be necessary if something like the War happened again, and neither was around.

She looked between us both. "Fine." My Mother bit out. "But only as self-defense. You will not harm any one who seek's no evil whatsoever." My mom snapped.

I nodded. Of course I wouldn't hurt the weak. I wasn't some kind of monster.

So Verlabell offered to teach me. At first, I thought it was a joke, but after getting my butt handed to me multiple time's, I started to take her seriously. Who knew she was skilled in fighting?

So our training kept up until I reached the age 16. The same age of each of my older sibling's turned when they was whisked away by my Father.

As I rode upon the float, I waved nervously into the crowd. I still wasn't fond of standing out in front of them to this day. Million pair's of eye's on me..Just the thought of it alone was scary. I was glad I didn't have to give a speech like Gohan did.

But beside's that, I couldn't help but wonder if I was going to be taken away just like them; Gohan and Goten. I also couldn't help but wonder if that sick Bastard was getting a kick out of this. Killing my Father and Possibly my second older brother, Goten.

Hopefully, they missed him, and he set foot on what ever Planet the ship was set to. Would I ever cross path's with them?

As I started to make my way around, everyone was enjoying themselves. The Festival was lively! Music booming, lot's of food going around, everyone's dancing happily.

A lot has happened through these three year's, and I could say for the better. Of course no one could ever forget about the War that occurred three year's ago, the same day as my Birthday, but everything took a turn, and it lead to something great. They know had a Princess who was in training. I was going to fight for my people, and I would make it know someday.

'Why not now?'

"Huh?"

'You wish to make it known that you'll fight for the one's you love, Correct?'

"W-well, yes but-"

'They can't have a strong Princess who's struggle's to accomplish her fear's of speaking in front of a small crowd.'

"I-I'm not scared of speaking in front of a crowd!" I argued. But in the inside, I was shaking just thinking about it.

'Then Prove me wrong, Princess.'

Once I returned to the palace, I marched up to the throne room, my face determined. Throwing open the door's, I seen my Mother sitting in her rightful spot. "I need to make a speech to all of Earth."

Now with her and Verlabell tailing behind me, I pushed opened the glass door's and stepped forward onto the balcony. I placed my hand's on the railing and stared up at the humongous crowd.

"Pan, what is this all about?" Came My Mother. I turned to see a small smile on her face. I too was smiling weakly on the inside. This would be something unforgettable.

"You'll see." I responded. Turning back around, I once again, faced the crowd. Clearing my throat, I took a deep breath.

Today, I would make my voice be heard...

"Ladies, and Gentlemen. I have an announcement to make." A small smile made it's way toward's my face, but that was nothing as the anger inside me build. "It still scare's me to speak like this to you all, but this is something I've needed to accomplish if I'm ever going to become Queen one day. You need a Queen, like the one you have right now, and I'm aiming to be just like her, Possibly better." I joked. I knew in my heart I could never accomplish something like My Mother has. It just something I could do as perfectly as her.

"I am truly proud to be your Princess, and it's an honor to know I have so many people care about me, My Family, and everything we believe in! Ever since that day, Your First Prince had departure, I was so confused to really understand what was fully going on, the same could be said about Prince Goten as well. And I never Imagine Goten to leave as well. You know, These Rumor's of him dying, it hurt's me that some of you could believe that.. But you want to know what I think? What I believe? I believe that he's still out there, Fighting for us.. And I want to do the same." I took a deep breath.

"So, It hurt's me yet, I'm happy to tell you..That Today, is the day where I bid my goodbye's!" I didn't have to turn around to see my mother's confused face, and Verlabell''s eyebrow's rising up slightly. "I will be leaving shortly to seek for the Bastard who kill Your King, My Father, And possibly your second Prince, Prince Goten. I Will find him, And I'll have him begging for his life!" I placed a hand over my heart. "You all been with me ever since the beginning, and I want to thank you all by accomplishing this goal. You all deserve better, and I want to be the one to hand it too you!" Bowing, I took a step back before giving them my back to face my outraged Mother.

"Throne room, NOW!" She hissed.

In the Throne room...

"YOU ARE NOT STEPPING ONE FOOT OFF THIS PLANET, FOR I WILL STOP YOU MYSELF!" Boomed My Mother's voice.

I flinched at my Mother's tone. I couldn't say for my Servant as Nothing see's to be frightening to her. But in the inside, I knew her ear's was ringing slightly. Who's wouldn't? The Said Servant stood just a few feet behind me.

"Mother please, If you would just-"

"NO. I don't wan to hear another word!" Chichi snapped. "Honestly Pan, What on Earth has gotten into-"

"I know you miss him, and I want to bring him back to you!" I found myself yelling over her voice. My head hung low, avoiding her harsh glaze. " Father, Gohan, and Goten. I can.." My voice trembled slightly. "I can if you would just let me-"

"I. Said. NO. I will not loose another. I'm sorry, but I can't!"

"And you won't!" I argued, my head snapping up. My glaze harden just like her's "You can't keep me locked up in here forever."

"Pan.." She started.

"Please, Mother. I can do it. I just need your blessing." I begged. Why was it hard for her to understand I needed to do this? I could do it, I just Know I can! I could feel my eye's watering slightly, as I stared into her face.

Chichi perched her lip's tightly, as her feature's soften slightly. "...Very well..Then if you wish to do this, then you must take another along with you on your journey."

"Mother, I can handle it one my own-"

"You will take the suggestion I give you or the deal is off!" She crossed her arm's over her chest. "What shall it be?"

I had to think. Who could I really rely on to help, guide me, and I can trust. 'I know, my best friend, Yukio Yamazaki. Yeah, he'd be a real big help! He's smart, think's rationally, and give's good tip's. Perfect! And he knew about Tomoya as well.'

'Only if he was present,' Tomoya exclaimed.

'But he's coming back today. He promised he would.'

"Well? We haven't got all day, Pan." Chichi sighed. She truly hope's for me to rethink about this, but I couldn't. I can't. My mind's already made up. This is what I want. I need to do this!

I opened my mouth to speak when his voice entered my mind once more. "Choose Verlabell."

'My face faltered as I looked down to the floor. ..Are you certain?'

"Indeed. She will become of great use for your journey. Did you forget, your still in training. There will be no room to socialize if you want to achieve this goal."

'If you say so,' I lifted my head back up and stared at my Mother. "Alright. I choose, Verlabell."

She shifted her eye's toward's the side in thought before nodding in approval. "Hm. Very well. You will be leaving in a week's notice, Not today."

"Agree." I bowed. I was kind of glad she said in a week's notice, and wouldn't let me go today. I could just break the new's to her and leave on the same day. That's what My Father did, and I would Not follow in his foot step's. I Forbid it!

I turned to Verlabell. "Would you please join me on my journey?"

She bowed. "Of course, Princess. I'm glad to be of use to you."

I smiled at her. Yes, it was good to have someone Like Verlabell...

~~~~~~~~n.n

"It's nice you see you, Yukio." I smiled at him.

"Likewise, My Princess." The Said teen bowed, and my Mother smiled kindly at his behavior.

"Why don't you two head off, catch up on thing's, and Pan." She gave me a stern look. "Behave yourself."

"Of course, Mother." We both bowed before leaving the Throne room.

Once we entered my bed chamber's, I closed the door behind us tightly and turned around, only to be hit on the head with his fist. I quickly nursed my head and glared lightly at him. "What was that for?!"

"Your leaving?!" He questioned angrily, crossing his arm's over his chest.

I frozed for a brief moment, before standing up straight. "Oh..So you've heard.."

"It was all over the New's. How can I not?! Specially when everyone is talking bout it around me!" I looked down, feeling guilty. "Why didn't you tell me Sooner?"

"I was but, lot's of thing's happened. I just want to become strong, a strong Queen, Just like my Mother-"

"And you will be." He spoke softly. He pulled me into a tight hug, and I didn't hesitate in hugging him back. "You would be the best Queen we've ever had.. And I can't wait to see you take the Crown. I would be with you every step of the way.."

I couldn't help but let out a small chuckle. "But I do feel bad for who ever's going to Marry you as you can be a handful at time's." He joked.

"Oh shut up!" I laughed, pushing away from him. I walked over toward's my bed and climbed on it, leaning against the head board. I patted the seat next to me. He did as he was Silently told and sat next to me. I rested my head against his shoulder and sighed lightly.

"What's troubling you?" His voice broke the silence.

"It's just..A big step.. I don't know when I'll return..IF I will return."

"You mustn't speak of such thing's, Pan. Specially with all that training you do. I still got bruises from last month!"

"But there's many many new face's that I know I'll have to face to reach for what I'm searching for. I just don't know how I'm going to do it."

Yukio opened his mouth to speak but Tomoya beated him to it. "Don't under estimate yourself, Mistress. You've grown and became more responsible these past year's. I believe your ready to Handel such tasks."

"Tomoya's right, Pan. You can do this! I wish I was able to go with you though."

My eye's brightened up. "You could. It'll be the four of us. Me, You, Tomoya, and Verlabell. It'll be Fun!" I exclaimed. I quickly pulled him down into a hug, pressing my face against his. "Please, oh, Please say you'll come!" I begged, tightening my grip on him.

"Pan..I Can't!" He breath out. But I didn't let up.

"Your just saying that!"

"Can't...Breath!"

Sighing loudly, I let go and he took multiple deep breath's. When he regained himself, he turned to see me pouting slightly at him. His face flustered a bit. "Pan, don't look at me like that."

But I only pouted even more, leaning into him. "Yukio.." I started.

"I'll just slow you down. I can't do that to you." He said, getting up. I followed his movement and stood to my feet as well.

"You won't. I-"

"Yes I will and you know it!" He sighed, shaking his head. "You need to do this on your own..I won't always be there, but you know I wish I was."

I wrapped my arm's around his waist, pulling his form closer to mine. "Yukio.." I sighed. "I know you'll always be there for me..You'll be here when I get back."

He turned around and returned the hug's. "Of course I would. I would be waiting for you." I looked up at him. "I-I mean, your Arrival, eheh.." He laughed nervously, avoiding my glaze.

Stepping on my toes, I leaned in and gave him a peak on the cheek before giving him another hug. "Your the Best friend anybody could ask for.."

"Pan.. I-I..I need to tell you something.."

I glanced up at him. "What?"

I seen his face tinted slightly as he gulped lightly. "I-uh..I g-got you something!" He quickly said, pulling away from me. He quickly fished into his pocket's and shoved a small box in my face.

I blinked twice..Somehow, I knew this isn't what he had meant when he said he needed to tell me something. I could tell by the way he was acting.

I opened the box to see a bracelet with three different type's of charm's.. One of Our Planet, One of a Princess crown, and the last one, of a half heart.

I looked up to see him holding the other half around his neck and stare at it in awe. I'm surprised I've haven't even noticed it until now..

I couldn't help but pull him into yet Another hug. "Won't you spend the night?" I asked.

He smiled down at me as he held me close. "Sure.." We stayed like that for a while, but I didn't care. I just wanted to spend as much time as I can with him. "Panny," I love how his voice sounded Perfect when calling my by that name. "You know I would do anything to Protect you, Right?"

I nodded. "I would do the same," I whispered.

"I would do everything in my power to keep you alive, even..Even if it mean's costing me my life..."

I looked at him, with a shocked yet somewhat angry expression. "What?"

His face became serious now. "You heard what I said, Pan."

I pulled back slightly, frowning up at him. "I'm sorry but you will not do such thing."

"I'm sorry but this is something that will have to Ignore of what you say on the matter. I care too much about you, Pan.."

"Not that much to risk your own life!"

"Yes, I do! Don't tell me such thing!" He pulled out of the hug and gripped my arm's tightly. "I care for too much that it Hurt's!" He exclaimed, hanging his head low, that his bang's brushed my forehead. "I-I..I love you, Pan."

I couldn't help but let out a small gasp as I frozed in place.

He lifted up his head and for the first time, he glared at me. "Don't ever say such word's to me Ever again.." And with that, he pulled me forward, his lip's crashing on to mine's.

I couldn't help myself and stumbled back, but he followed me and held me closer than before.

When he pulled away, I took a deep breath, and blinked twice.. I could still feel the heat burning my cheek's, and I avoided his glaze. It was only until then I was being pulled into a tight embrace. "I will wait for you, but I won't stand and watch you fall without doing something. You are Very precious to me...And even if you can't accept my feeling's, I just want you to know..I Love you, with all my heart.."

"Yukio..." I looked up to him and brushed away the tear's that flowed down his face.

"Please, Even if it's not true..Tell me..that you love me..."

"Yukio.."

"Please!"

"..I-I love you, Yukio.."

He leaned down and brought our lip's together once more. Weakly and nervously, I kissed him back.. But I myself couldn't tell if I was lying..Or not...

The day of my departure has finally come,

I stood outside, my arm's crossed, face hard, as it was silence around me. Everyone has come to see me and Verlabell off..

Feeling a small tug on my armor, and i looked down to see a small girl. She held up a bouquet of Star flower's. I crouched down to her height and placed a hand over her head, giving her a small smile. "Thank you," I said taking the bouquet. I leaned over and kissed the top of her head before standing.

She bowed and I watched the small child run back to her family. It was only then, I was being ambushed by News Reporter's.

"Princess, Few question's: How long do you think It'll take you to accomplished this goal."

He shoved the Mic into my face and I blinked twice. I looked straight into the Camera."I-I don't know, probably a few year's. There's only so many Planet's he could be cowering behind."

"What brought you to feel the need to take on revenge of the person who killed our beloved king and Prince."

"He took someone that mean's too much for us Not to take revenge."

"Do you believe you'll be alright. There's so many enemies out there."

"I.."

'Yes,'

"I think I could handle my own. But I'm not going out there to make any enemies. That would only bring harm to my people which I will not do."

"What do you have to say for the people who care's deeply about you?"

"That I love all of them. I love every single being on this Planet. To my mother, and my best friend, Yuiko Yamazaki, I Will return in one piece, You needn't worry for I do have Verlabell by my side every step of the way. I love you both and I know you'll do everything in your power to keep a close eye on this Planet. Stay safe." I blew a kiss into the Camera before turning back to stare at the ship.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and turned to see My Mother, and Yukio.. I caught my breath with my Mother pulled me into a tight embrace. I wrapped my arm's around her, and sighed lowly. "Keep your word, Pan." She muttered into my ear.

"I will." When we pulled back, I laughed sadly as we both had tear's in our eye's. "I will bring them back, I Promise."

I then turned to face my friend. I walked until there was only little space between us, and pulled him into a tight hug, which he returned. "Be careful, Pan."

"But of course. I do have to return to you guy's and tell You guy's about my adventure, don't I?" I heard him chuckle lightly before pulling back.

"Here," He held out a small envelope. I took it, but gave him a curious glance. "I want you to read it when your million's of mile's away."

"Is this..." I started, but he cut me off.

"Not all of it.. I only told you part of it." He explained, a small blush on his face.

"I see.." I look up at him and gave him a small smile.

"I'm keeping my word to you.. I'll wait for you,"

"Yukio you can't..there's a chance where I might not even come back-"

"You will. I know you will.." Giving me another hug, I felt his lip's on top of my head,

Pulling away from the hug, I seen Verlabell waiting near the ship patiently. I sighed lowly. "Guess this is goodbye,"

"Yeah.."

Sighing once more, I turned and started to walk toward's the ship.

My life was about to change, I don't know for the better or for worst, but I'm ready to face what ever is thrown my way head-on.

But I couldn't help but feel sadden. I was leaving my people for who know's how long. But I promised to return..I couldn't break that promise.

I followed Verlabell onto the ship, taking slow step's. I knew I couldn't back down now.

"I promise.." I whispered into the wind, and with that, I gave them my back and disappeared into thee ship.

The ship roared with life, and it wasn't long before we shot up into the sky.

And this is where I'm determined to prove myself worthy.

This..is where my life changed...
