Chapter 4: What's Going On?
Trunks was right. She did owe both of them an explanation for her actions, however although she wanted to explain she didn't know how. She was in the wrong time period, in another future. 18 and what looked like her twin 17 have murdered everyone except Trunks and Bulma. Neither of them knew about her mother Videl, and both of them had no idea about Bra. Pan just spoke up. "You're right I do owe you some sort of explanation, but if I told you it would sound completely insane." Trunks just gave a snort.
"What you did when I was fighting 18 was insane, so I think we could expect the worst from you." Pan glared at Trunks and opened her mouth to say something, but was stopped by Bulma.
"Just tell us what happened. Start at what you were doing before you woke up." Pan took a deep breath and began her story.
"I was out near the mountain road training with my uncle Goten, and you Trunks, or at least I thought it was you." At this point Trunks cut her off.
"Wait! What do you mean you thought it was me?"
"It was you, but you looked different. You where younger and your clothes where different. I don't really know how to describe it." Bulma stopped her.
"Just continue with your story." She told her and Pan did so.
"Anyway, during sparring a blast was reflected to the rocks above me and I was caved in. Then I stared to hear voices. I think it was you two because you guys where the first ones I saw when I woke up here." The two owners of the Capsule Corp. just gazed at her until Trunks once again spoke.
"Alright, then tell me…why did you protect 18 and almost kill us both?!" he yelled obviously mad. Pan got carried away and yelled back.
"WOULD KRILLIN REALLY LIKE IT IF YOU KILLED HIS WIFE?" at these words Trunks and Bulma became truly dumbstruck.
"Wait a sec!! What did you say?" asked Bulma who was caught in awe by this statement.
"I said 18 is Krillin's wife. Even I know that!" she said like it was obvious. Another look of grief caught Trunks face.
"That's impossible. Krillin is dead too. Everyone is dead. They all died in the fight with the androids. I'm the only capable on left of fighting them." Pan didn't understand. Not everyone could be dead, there had to be someone other than Trunks and Bulma.
"What about Goten?" she asked, but another confused look from the two just confirmed they had no idea what she was talking about. "You can't be serious!" Pan said tears forming once again. "I was only knocked out for about an hour and now you're telling me everyone is dead? It can't be. Grandpa was a Super Sayian! There's no way he could've been beat!" Trunks spoke up.
"Grandpa? If you mean Goku, then yes. He probably could've beaten the androids……but he never got a chance to fight them." Pan looked up.
"What do you mean?"
"Goku…died of a heart virus. There was no medicine to give him back then, so there was nothing we could do." Bulma replied. The young girl was shocked at the death, but forced herself on.
"But what about Vegeta? He was a super sayian too!" she tried to say, but Trunks spoke up with a small hint of anger at the mention of his father.
"What? Dad, a super sayian? As if. After Goku died, dad completely lost his spirit to fight or train. Once the androids showed up, dad was only strong enough to hold them off while me and mom escaped. Him and Piccolo died at the same time." Pan couldn't believe what she was hearing. Everyone had died so easily, and it was all thanks to 18 and her twin. Pan could feel more grief and also anger welling up inside of her. However an idea soon came to her.
"Wait! Then what about the Dragon Balls? With them you could wish everyone back and…" but Trunks stopped that idea short.
"It could work, but there are to problems with that idea. Their names are 17 and 18. It would be too dangerous to search for them with those two out there." Pan wasn't going to give up that easily, but she had run out of ideas.
"But I have to get home. Everyone is probably worried sick about me." Bulma scratched her head but suddenly thought of something.
"Hold on a second. Earlier did you say Vegeta was a super sayian, and that I had a daughter?" Pan nodded. "That's it! I don't think you're dreaming. You must be from another time period. Like from another future." Pan and Trunks's eyes both widened.
"Mom! Are you serious? How is she from another future? We didn't see a time machine anywhere near where we found her." Trunks said.
"Yeah." Stated Pan. "So without a time machine how could I have gotten here?" Bulma wasn't sure of all this, but I did seem like the most possible thing that could happen.
"I'm not too sure on that, but it does seem like the most believable explanation at this point." Pan was basically lost. She didn't know where she was and how she had come to be here, but all she knew was if she didn't get back soon everyone would be worried and her gramps Hercule would probably have a heart attack.
"I'm not really sure what to say at this point, but all I know is if I don't get back soon then everyone is going to be worried sick." Trunks was now beginning to get frustrated.
"Getting you home is the very least of our problems right now. There are two killer androids out there destroying everything, and if I don't stop
them then we're all done for!" he shouted. Pan was starting to get mad too.
"Well how do you think I feel? I went from training one day with everyone I cared about to your time where apparently my entire family is dead, and worst of all YOU GOT TURNED INTO A COMPLETE JERK!!" Trunks just turned his head and waved off the comment.
"Well sorry our home couldn't please you." He said coldly. Pan was about to argue back, but Bulma stood up to cut off the fighting.
"Chill you two!" she said which put an end to the bickering. Bulma sat back down and lit a cigarette. "As far as we know, Pan got here from another time period, but we're not sure how. And maybe it's not too important Trunks, but nevertheless we still have to get her home." Trunks turned away. He hated being proven wrong but still admitted he had lost.
"But Bulma, how are we supposed to get me back to my own time?" Pan questioned, but after a moment of thought something hit the blue haired scientist.
"We could send you back in the time machine I'm making. At these words however, Trunks whipped around.
"MOM!! What are you saying? We have to use the time machine to get Goku the heart medicine so he can beat the androids in the past!" Bulma knew Trunks was right but spoke sternly to her son.
"Trunks, I know it may not be the most important thing right now, but we have to get her back to her own time. Even if you have to drop her off there." At these words shocked looks hit the faces of both sayain children.
"WHAT?!" they both said in unison. "The day I spend a second cramped in a time machine with her is the time me and father spend heartwarming quality time together." Trunks scoffed. At this Pan stood up and got in Trunks' face.
"Very funny! You haven't exactly been a humanitarian either. You've been a real jerk lately and I'm surprised that Bulma keeps you after the way you treat ladies!!" she screamed. As the two children went at it, all Bulma could do was sigh. Elsewhere, near North City the two twins known as 17 and 18 where looking for more victims to have "fun" with. Or at least 17 was.
"Would you hurry up already? All you do is complain and look for clothes. Learn to have some fun would you?" 17 complained as 18 looked over herself in a mirror.
"Well to me this is fun. All you do is blow up cars and buildings. That gets boring after awhile. At least I can try new things doing this." 17 rolled his eyes, and his twin sister sighed. "Anyway, what do you think of this one?" she said modeling off her new look. 17 just shrugged his shoulders.
"I guess it looks ok." He said, but 18 turned and shook her head.
"You can't be serious. This thing is freaking hideous. How could you actually like some piece of trash like this?" her twin brother sweat-dropped.
"Why are you going to ask my opinion just to turn it down? That makes no sense." He said, but 18 disagreed.
"Well I want an opinion on something before I think it sucks."
"So basically you're telling me that my opinions suck?" asked 17 with a cross look on his face. 18 walked back into the dressing room and started to remove her new outfit and put on her old one.
"I thought that one did yeah." 17 just ignored the comment and continued.
"Anyway, you said that little girl had an abnormal power level didn't you?" 18 nodded.
"Yeah. She can't be human because not only did she fly and have a big power level, but there was nothing about her in Dr. Gero's data." 17 looked questionably at her, but she then added something. "She also said something about Gohan. That he was her father or something like that." At this an evil smile grew on 17's face, and 18 caught sight of it. An evil smile then appeared on her face as well.
"She related to Gohan is she?" 18 walked out of the dressing room and nodded. "Well then…" said 17 his smile steadily growing bigger. "I guess we'll just have to add her name on Gohan's tombstone, now won't we?"
Kid Gohan: No way!! I have a daughter? I'm dead?! And what's the deal with those androids? They really scare me!
Krillin: I know 18 maybe a bit scary, but she does have her soft sides.
Kid Gohan: Krillin! What are you doing here?
Krillin: Well, I got a call from this guy who calls himself the Phoenix Fire Alchemist, and he asked me to do a disclaimer for this story he's doing. So since I'm free at the moment I thought I might as well…
18: So you're free are you?
Krillin: Huh?! 18?
Kid Gohan: (wide eyed) AHH!! ANDRIODS!! (Takes off)
18: What's his problem?
Krillin: (sweat-drops) really shy. Anyway, R&R everyone!
