I don't own dbz or 5*7*9 they are both owned by different companies.
a/n--Trunks is 24; Pan is 17; Bra is 16...i'll give the rest of the characters'
ages when they come into the fic...as always in my fics "~--~" indicates
thought. It may be a little hard to follow, but it will all make sense in the
end...sorry if you get lost...
"Give them a chance, Pan-chan. Please."
"No way Tou-san! I'm not interested in meeting a family that was never
interested in meeting me."
It was harsh, but true. I had never met his side of the family before. I didn't
want to. Why should I? They never made any attempt to come see me. I had been
arguing with my father about this for three months. I was 17 at the time. That's
right. For 17 years, I had never seen or talked to his family. He talked to them
maybe once a year (when HE called THEM), but that was it. They never came to
visit or called to say hello. I wanted nothing to do with them.
"Pan-chan..."
"NO! I don't want to see them. It's been 17 years Tou-san. Seventeen YEARS! I
want nothing to do with a family that wants nothing to do with me."
"Pan! You know that's not true. Your ojii-san is very anxious to meet you."
"That would explain why they've never come to see me before...Forget it."
"Pan be reasonable..." I didn't give him the chance to finish.
"I am being reasonable! I'm almost 18 years old, and I have a 'family' (that has
never wanted to meet me before) suddenly have a change of heart?! I don't think
so."
I could tell what I had said hurt him. He always spoke so highly of his family.
I felt kinda bad, but I wasn't about to back down now.
"Why did we have to move here anyways? We were doing just fine before. Ever
since Kaa-san died you've been acting like the world was coming to an end."
I couldn'at believe I had just said that. I had taken it too far. Tou-san looked
up at me. The tears he was trying to hold back now ran freely down his face. I
coudn't stay there. I couldn't watch my father cry. I ran to the door.
"I-I'm sorry Tou-san."
That was all I could say before I flew off towards the city.
I flew for what seemed like hours, until I spotted a shopping mall down below. I
decided to check it out. When I landed, I looked at my watch and was surprised I
had only been flying for a bout thirty minutes.
~Ugh...it's only 12:30?...oh well...more time to shop...~
As I walked through the stores, I was beginning to get bored. I eventually saw
one called "5*7*9". I decided to check it out. After about ten minutes of
looking around, I realized that they didn't have anything in my size that
interested me.
~I already have enough clothes anyways...~
I was getting ready to leave when an extreamely hot guy walked into the store.
He was about six feet tall with a nice tanned complexion. His silky, lavender
hair was pulled back in a ponytail with his bangs hanging loose on either side.
He was wearing a tight black t-shirt which showed off is very muscular phisyque.
I was cativated by him. I just stood there staring at him when he looked right
at me. Startled, I turned away and walked over to one of the clothes racks. I
could feel the heat rising to my cheeks. I looked over my shoulder, and was a
little disappointed with what I saw. There was a girl hanging on his arm. She
was beautiful. She looked about my age, maybe a little bit younger. Her aqua
colored hair was about shoulder length. Not to mention perfect. And to make
things worse she had a slim figure.
~It figures...the cute ones are always taked by someone ten times prettier than
you are...oh well~
I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't realize he was looking at me again. I
tried to turn away again, but by the time I realized what was going on, it was
too late. Our eyes met and I practically melted. Blushing furociously, I smiled
at him and quickly walked out of the store.
~Well...THAT was embarrassing...that guy must think I am a total psycho...~
About 20 minutes had passed since the little "5*7*9" incident. I passed by the
food court and decided to get something to eat. I walked up to a line for some
chinese food.
~I hope these people won't think I'm too wierd when I order all of my
food...sigh...me and my saiya-jin appetite.~
The line was really long, but I didn't mind the wait. After about five minutes
someone tapped me on the shoulder.
"Excuse me miss..."
It was a deep masculine voice. I turned around, hoping and praying that the
voice didn't belong to the lavender-haired man from earlier. To my relief and
disappointment, it didn't. Instead, it belonged to a blond-haired, blue-eyed...
"Excuse me miss...I lost my number. Can I have yours?"
..jerk! I just gave him a dirty look and turned around.
"I'm sorry," he said, "Did I offend you? It's just that you're so hot, and I'd
really like to go out with you, and..."
He talked on and on. Constantly hitting on me with the lamest lines.
~Blah, blah, blah...ugh...doesn't this guy ever shut up?!...~
I was beyond the point of annoyed. I turned around to tell him to leave me
alone. As soon as I did, he wrapped his arms around my waist.
"What do you think you are doing?! Get your grubby hands off of me!"
He didn't listen. Instead, he kissed me. I was furious. Then he did something
worse than kiss me. He grabbed my ass with one hand and my breast with the
other. From then on all I saw was red. I was about to knock him through the
other side of the mall, when he went flying to the side. I was shocked. I looked
over to the blond boy and noticed that he had a huge bruise already forming on
his cheek. Someone had punched him.
"Are you okay, Miss?"
I looked over, and was surprised to see the lavender-haired man.
"Y-yeah. I'm fine."
His gentle gaze turned into a harsh glare as he directed his attention towards
the blond guy. He walked over to him and lifted him off the ground by his
collar.
"What did you think you were doing Chad?"
"T-Trunks...I-I-I was just showing my girl some affection. That's all."
~Did he just say I was his girl!?...I don't think so..~
"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!?!"
I was ready to go super saiya-jin. I was so mad I had forgotten to keep my ki
surpressed. It was flaring. I stormed over to where Trunks and that Chad guy
were. I looked up at Trunks. His eyes were as wide as saucers. That's when I
realized that my ki was out of control. I quickly surpressed it again, and
looked back at Trunks.
"Put him down please."
Trunks did just that. I took the guy by the collar and lifted him with one arm
off the ground again.
"I don't want to cause any more of a scene than you already have, but if you
EVER come near me again, the emergency room will quickly become your new best
friend. Do you understand?!"
I shook him a little for emphasis. He nodded his head, and I threw him towards
the exit. He scrambled to his feet and quicklyran out the doors. I turned back
towards Trunks.
"Thanks." I said with a sigh.
"N-No problem. You're new around here aren't you?" I nodded. "You have to watch
out for guys like Chad."
"You mean there's more than one of him?"
Trunks and I shared a laugh, and I started walking back towards the line. To my
surprise (and delight), Trunks followed. Just then, I remembered that he already
had a girlfriend.
~Reality bites~
"What's your name?" he asked.
"Pan."
"Well, Pan, it is very nice to meet you."
He grabbed my hand an gently kissed it. Once again, I felt the heat rising to my
cheeks.
"Would you mind if I bought you lunch?"
~Would I mind?...do I look stupid to you...of course I wouldn't mind...~
"Ummm...sure. Thanks."
"Hey, it's the least I can do after what happened with my friend."
"That guy was your friend?"
"Kinda'. We don't really hang out anymore... He's a little too immature for me."
He said that last part with a sly smirk on his face. I couldn't help but giggle
a little.
"So do you still want chinese?"
"I've kinda lost my appetite for that. How about some pizza?"
"Sounds good to me."
We got into the pizza line and made some small talk while we were waiting. He
asked me the basic questions. How old I am (17), where I'm from (US), etc. I
found out that his name is Trunks Briefs. I was rather shocked to find out that
he was the president of Capsule Corparation. When we got our food, we found a
table and sat down. That's when the bigger questions came.
"You're a very powerful person, Pan. How did you get so strong?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Come on...the way you lifted Chad off of the ground with one hand and then
threw him across the mall? That and the fact that I felt your ki. It was huge."
"You can feel kis?"
"Yeah. Where'd you learn to fight?"
"My Otou-san taught me."
"He must be very powerful."
~You don't know the half of it...~
"Yes. He is."
"What part of the U.S. are you from?"
"Indiana."
"Honto? That far east huh? What brings you all the way over here?"
"Well, my kaa-san passed away about six months ago."
I paused for a bit, remembering my tou-san and everything that I had said to him
earlier. Trunks looked a little regretful for asking.
"Gomen nasai, Pan. I didn't mean to bring up any bad memories."
It's okay. Anyways, after she died, my tou-san and I tried to move on
but....there were too many memories where we lived. So, my tou-san decided that
we should move back here."
"Why here?"
"Because his family lives here. But to be honest, I'm not exactly all that
anxious to meet them."
"Why not?"
"I have my reasons."
Trunks must have noticed how awkward the conversation was becoming because he
changed the subject.
"I can show you around town if you like."
I was about to reply when I was interrupted.
"TRUNKS! Where have you been?!"
I looked behind me and saw the girl he was with earlier. I put on my best fake
smile and said hello.
"Ohayo. Who are you?"
"Bra, this is Pan. Pan this is my sister Bra."
My eyes went wide with shock.
~HIS SISTER?!~
But that look quickly changed to one of elation. He was her brother NOT her
boyfriend.
"So what happened to you?" she said. "You just left me at the '5*7*9'. You do
realize that you are the one with all the money, don't you?"
Trunks just smiled sheepishly.
"Gomen sis."
"Trunks, I'm going home. Are you coming?"
"I want to stay for a little while longer." he said while looking at me. "You'll
be okay. You practically live here anyways."
"No...I'm going home now. With or without you."
"And just how would you do that? You can't drive, and I have the keys anyways."
"I've already called Goten. He's on his way to pick me up now."
"I don't see why you didn't drag him along in the first place. He's your
boyfriend, not me."
"Son Goten had a job interview today thank you very much. Dende knows he needed
one. I wasn't about to keep him away from that."
~Did she just say Son Goten?...nah...she couldn't have...what are the chances of
them knowing my family?...~
"Well, then I'll see you at home, Sis."
"Ja ne Nii-chan, ja Pan."
"Ja Sis."
Trunks was still looking at me when he said this. For the third time that day, I
blushed. I couldn't believe it. Trunks was staring at me like I was the most
interesting thing on earth. We finished our pizza and were getting ready to
leave the mall. I started to head off in the direction that I came in, but
Trunks grabbed my wrist.
"Would you like a ride home?"
"Well, I guess, but it's kinda a little ways off."
"That's okay. I don't mind. Where do you live?"
"About 30 miles east."
"Honto? How'd you get here?"
"Would you believe I flew?"
"You know how to fly?"
"Yeah."
"Well then what's the point in taking a car. It's faster that way anyways."
Trunks smiled and we walked over to his car. He encapsuled it and we headed
towards a secluded area. We looked around to make sure no one was watching, and
took off. While we were flying, Trunks grabbed my hand. It was so warm. It felt
like my hand was made to fit his. I smiled at him and faced forward again. When
we got to my house, I saw my tou-san sitting on the front porch. He looked up
with a shocked expression on his face.
~Maybe I should introduce them...~
"Tou-san this is..."
"Trunks..."
"Gohan-san..."
Now it was my turn to be shocked.
"You two know each other?!"
"Yeah we now each other. Gohan was my teacher when I was growing up."
"How did you two meet, Panny?"
"There was a little incident at the mall today invovling my body parts and
someone guys hands. Trunks was kind enough to help me out and buy me lunch
afterwards."
I felt my tou-sans ki rise a bit when I mentioned the body parts and hands, but
he calmed down after he heard about Trunks helping me.
"So I take it you enjoyed meeting a friend of my family's?"
"Yes I did. I met his sister too. She was pretty cool."
"You and Bra would get along great, Pan. I could tell by the way she was when
she met you."
"You really think so, Trunks?"
"Yeah. Goten is a trip too."
"I don't think that that family knows what a trip is."
"Pan-chan! That was uncalled for."
"Actually, Goten has been talking about how excited he is to be meeting his
niece after so long."
"Great, Trunks. Take his side."
"Hey, I'm not taking sides. You're not giving them a chance."
"Yeah, but.."
"Pan..."
"Don't 'Pan' me Tou-chan. Fine. I'll meet them, but only because you won't stop
bugging me about it."
With that, I went into the house and up to my room. I watched outside of my
window to see my tou-san and Trunks talking.
"Wow, Trunks...How'd you do that?"
"Do what?"
"Get her to agree to meet her family. I've been trying to do that for three
months, and she wouldn't even think about it. You've known her for an hour and
you got to to agree to it."
"It's all part of the charm, Gohan-san."
I laughed at the arrogance in Trunks' last comment, but he was right. He was
charming.
I decided that I would go for a walk. A nice long walk. I looked at my watch. It
was 4:30. I snuck out the back and headed for the woods. But only after I left
my tou-san a note. I came home at around 9:00 that night to a nice steak dinner.
I guess Tou-san felt he needed to celebrate my decision or something. After
dinner, I went up to my room and went to bed.
~Tomorrow I'm going to meet everyone.~

I decided that I would go for a walk. A nice long walk. I looked at my watch. It
was 4:30. I snuck out the back and headed for the woods. But only after I left
my tou-san a note. I came home at around 9:00 that night to a nice steak dinner.
I guess Tou-san felt he needed to celebrate my decision or something. After
dinner, I went up to my room and went to bed.
~Tomorrow I'm going to meet everyone.~
