Trunks sat down impatiently in his throne next to his fathers. His father and mother were now trying to 'arrange marriages' for both him and his sister Bra. Sighing and looking grumpily at the floor Trunks started to click his tongue impatiently as his whole future was decided for him.

Bra bounded up to him and smiled. "C'mon let's get out of here and do something fun!" She said smiling.

"Something fun on this planet?" Trunks asked raising en eye brow at her. She shrugged and grinned "I'm sure we can find something to do!" He sighed and nodded. Anywhere was better then here. He stood up and allowed himself to be steered out through the giant golden doors of the palace.

He breathed in deeply the smell of fresh air and lay on the grass as he watched his sister attempting to climb a tree. He laughed lightly as she fell and her shirt caught on a branch. "How can you be so light hearted when our Mother and Father are in there choosing who we will be spending ever waking moment with?" He asked curiously.

She shrugged and clambered back onto the branch un-snagging her shirt. "I try not to think about it! Beside I think they are going to make me go with your best friend!" She said scowling as an image of Goten flashed in front of her eyes.

Trunks saw her scowl and laughed. "He's not that bad!" He said flicking a small rock between his fingers. "He's actually a really funny guy to be around!" He said smiling at her.

She sat on one of the higher branches. "That may be true, but I hardly know the guy! I mean, I know he's good looking and everything but I just like him as more of a friend!" She said sighing.

Trunks snorted. "At least your getting someone you know! I don't have a clue who they will chose for me!" He said pulling the grass from the ground and jabbing at the earth moodily.

Bra's eyes softened. "There is a good chance they will pick Pan!" She said sighing. "She's the only person I cant think of!"

Trunks gave a snigger. "I don't think so! I'm old enough to be her father!" He said laughing. "Well maybe not her father, but still!" He shook his head. "It wouldn't feel right."

The two sat in silence for a few moments. Trunks heaved a sigh. "Time to go back and hear the royal verdict.." He stood and watched as his sister fluttered from her perch. She slowly ascended to the earth and smiled weakly at him. "I suppose!"

The two flew back to the palace. Trunks was not in a good mood. He would have preferred to go to earth and fall in love the old fashioned way! But his father insisted he follow their rules now that they lived on Vegetasei. It wasn't fair! They landed and made the march towards the atrium. Once they opened the doors and shut them behind them, both Trunks and Bra made their way slowly over to the throne upon which sat the King and Queen. They were all alone in the room.

"Your father and I have made a decision!" Said Queen Bulma firmly. "Bra you are to marry Goten!"

Bra gave a shrug. She had seen this coming, and Trunks knew how much of a good guy Goten actually was! He was so shy and at the same time strong. Lucky little bugger...

"Trunks!" King Vegeta said

Trunks sighed and gazed up at his father. Here it was, this name would haunt him for the rest of his life. Please don't let it be, please don't let it be, PLEASE don't let it be...

"Pan!"
