Summary of last chapter: Gosh even I can't remember it! I think Trunks finally was reunited with Pan and kind of freaked when he saw her in another mans arms. By the end of the chapter, they had kind of sorted everything out and agreed that they would stay in prison until they're able to figure out what the hell Lord Odin has up his sleeve.
Chapter 7: Look a Likes.
Abice trudged into his cell, the door slamming behind him as the guards walked off.
"Were you able to get anything?" Pan asked hopefully.
"Nah, the Doc doesn't say anything!" He replied angrily as he slumped down next to Pan.
"Argh, we're getting NO WHERE! Damn, it's been a week since Trunks got here and still nothing has changed!" She raged, punching the wall.
"Hey, hey, it's O.K Pan! We'll nail this prick! For all we know, Trunks could have found something out." He replied comfortingly.
"He damn well better have!"
Just then the door swung open to reveal an exhausted and haggard looking Trunks, swaying on his feet.
"Trunks!" Pan screamed, running to his side before he could face plant the floor.
"Don't worry 'bout me Pan, I'm just tired, is all. They had me doing all these damn test!" He moaned as she dragged him over to a bench. "Sorry Pan, I couldn't get anything out of them. But I know one thing is for sure, they're absolutely CRAZY about getting me to go super saiyan. It's all that damn fool that they call a King talks about! Don't worry I won't let them get that out of me though."
"Dammit Trunks! Screw your idea, it isn't working!" Pan yelled.
"What the hell Pan, my idea? This was your idea, not mine!"
"No Trunks, that's where you're wrong! It's only my idea if the damn thing works and since it hasn't, then it's your idea!" She quipped back self-righteously.
"Oh whatever Pan." He sighed. "If you ain't going to go with this plan, then what are we going to do?"
"Well, I've been thinking about this for a really long time and well, I think we should break out of here and hack into the Doc's computers." She exclaimed happily.
"Pan that was MY idea!" He growled looking at her.
"No I thought we already went through this, your idea was the one that DIDN'T work, so get over it!
Trunks glared at her, ready to jump into an argument when he felt Abice's restraining hand on his shoulder.
"Don't start you two! You've only been in this cell together for a week and already your bickering is driving me CRAZY! So SHUT-UP!!"
"Well what the hell do you expect me to do Abs? This cell is driving me up the wall! I have nothing to do here! I can't even go to the damn toilet without you two being in the same room as me, without you two being able to see me! Do you know how embarrassing that is? And to top it right off, I'm FILTHY!! I can't even have a damn bath! So don't you dare start on me! I need some way to vent my anger and if that means that I'm going to fight with Trunks then I'm going to damn well fight with Trunks! You hear me!!" Pan yelled, her face crumpled in an ugly glare.
"Sorry Pan, but you two fighting isn't going to help us! We need to get out of here and fast! So how are we going to do that? We can't blast through the walls because they just absorb the attacks. The only chance we have to get out of here is when the guards come to get us. So I think we should jump them." Abice finished off hurriedly, trying to distract Pan from their previous conversation.
"Na-uh, everyone will be alerted that we've escaped as soon as the guards don't return. We can't have that, they can't know about anything. We have to be careful about how we go about this. If they find out that we know, we loose the element of surprise." She contemplated, shaking her head.
"Then exactly what are we going to do Pan?" Trunks asked, joining the conversation.
She flashed Trunks a brilliant toothy smile. "Leave it me!"
oo0000oo
After Pan had explained her plan to Trunks and Abice eagerly and after she had received some very strange looks, they had finally agreed and so now Pan waited impatiently for the guards to come and get her.
The door swung open and she had to restrain herself from jumping up and running to the guards, who walked firmly in and yanked her off her butt and onto her feet.
"Come on wench, we don't have all day." Snapped Zecra as he hauled her out of the room
oo0000oo
"Hey can you Stop?!" Pan said as she planted her feet into the ground.
"What the hell is it now?" The two guards groaned in unison.
"I need to go to the toilet."
"Well too bad, I don't give a damn! You can piss in your pants for all I care but I'm still taking you to the Doc." Zecra growled as he carried on his way, dragging Pan behind him.
"Still cut up that I rejected you Zecra? Well sorry but I don't screw ugly freaks like you! Hell I could've probably chucked a paper bag over your head while I done the deed but you don't even have a nice body. Sorry but you are definitely the ugliest thing that I have ever seen! So get over it and move on!" Pan sneered, her words laced with malice. "Well now that we've got that little problem out of the way, would you mind taking me to the toilet? I don't need a pee, I need the other one and I don't think the Doc would be very happy with me showing up with THAT in my pants!"
Zecra sighed in frustration and stomped off in the opposite direction, making a bee-line to the toilets and snarling the whole way. "You know one of these days they ain't going to need you anymore and when that day comes, you'll be seeing me." Zecra threatened. "You've got ten minutes, any longer and I'm going to come in and rip you off your damn throne, whether you're finished or not!"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah! I get it, spare me the mellow drama!" Pan replied un-fazed by his threats as she casually walked into the toilet.
oo0000oo
Wasting no time, she swiftly locked the door behind her and started looking for the Xaecrew shoot that should be disguised in the roof somewhere and smiled to herself when she found it. Quickly, she flew up to the roof and dislodged the trap door and squeezed herself through the small gap. As soon as she had gotten her hips past the barrier, the room was quite spacious and as soon as her eyes adjusted to the dim light, she saw the small tunnels that had been made by the Xaecrew's, making her shiver. Xaecrews were a little race of orange imps that resembled something close to a mutated naked mole rat that walked on two legs and infested the walls of every dwelling on this artificial planet. It became so bad that a lot of buildings were collapsing from having their foundations ruined by the little tunnels that they made. After that, every dwelling was to have a Xaecrew shoot and each week they had to let the Ranieds run free and purge the house of them. So Pan had taken this as the best chance of getting around the place without being seen. The only thing that she was dreading was actually running into a Xaecrew. They had the most piercing scream and if she was found by one, there was absolutely no doubt in her mind that everyone in the facility would be alerted of her presence. So keeping this thought in her mind, she locked onto Trunks ki and zoomed off in that direction.
Three minutes later, she found herself just above the door of her cell and silently she worked the grate out and slipped down, landing with a soft thud on the tiled floor.
Quickly she ran over to the door and pushed in the combination that she had seen Zecra punch into the pad thousands of times. The door swung silently open and out rushed Trunks and Abice.
"O.K you guys got about five minutes, I passed some guards heading this way. So you better hurry-up!" Pan whispered as she flew back up to the shoot and left Trunks tapping furiously away at a keyboard.
oo0000oo
She arrived back at the rest room with little more then a few seconds to spare. Flushing the toilet to make it appear like she had really gone, she then strolled over to the sink and washed her hands before slipping out of the room.
"Well hurry-up!" Pan teased upon seeing the guards. "I don't have all damn day to wait for you two, I got a date with the Doc." She smiled into Zecra's fuming face as she walked off in the direction of the lab.
oo0000oo
Abice waited in anticipation as he watched Trunks hands fly across the key board. "What the hell are you doing any way Trunks?" He wondered aloud, not able to make heads or tails of the situation.
"I'm setting this up so that at 2:30 in the morning our cell door will open and let us out." Trunks said through clenched teeth, sick of Abice's annoying questions.
"What you're only doing that and it's taking you this long? You better hurry-up." Abice replied mockingly.
"Shut-up Abice, I've finished anyway. Now let's get back in that cell before those guards get here." Trunks replied bitingly as he grabbed Abice by the scuff and dragged him along.
oo0000oo
Five hours later Pan walked defiantly into her cell, waited for the guards to leave and then collapsed onto the floor. With a wry smile she looked up at Trunks face. "You were right about one thing, those pricks really are trying to make us go super saiyan. Funny thing is they're absolutely sure that I can do it and am just being stubborn. While on the other hand they think that you're some third class weakling." Pan laughed. "Funny isn't it, when it's really the other way around."
Trunks tried to smile but it looked more like a grimace as he picked up the stubborn girl who looked like she was going to pass out and wrapped his arms around her waist, settling her in his lap. "Pan, I think you better sit tonight out. You're exhausted and I'm sure Abice and me can handle it." Immediately he felt Pan's body tense beneath him at his words and so he waited patiently for the refusal that he knew was coming.
"What the hell Trunks?!" She yelled, her head whipping around to face him. "Like hell you're going without me!"
"Pan you're staying here, you're just going to be a liability if you come along." He replied, fixing her with a stern look.
"No way Trunks, I'm going and if you think you can go and have all the fun without me, you've got another thing coming!" She replied, pushing out of his embrace.
He wrapped his arms firmly back around the wriggling girl and lowered his head until his lips were just a breath away from her ear. "Pan please, stay here. I don't want you to get hurt anymore then you already have. What if we get caught and a fight ensues? Pan can you honestly tell me that you'll be able to hold your own if it came to that?" He whispered concerned.
"Save it Trunks, your womanizing persuasive methods don't work on me, so don't even try! I'm coming and that's final! If you even try to go without me, I yell my head off like a screaming banshee and give the whole game away." Pan replied, trying to look threatening from her position in Trunks arms but just ended up looking like a pouting, spoiled little girl, having a fit with her boy friend.
"Pan why can't you just listen to me, for ONCE! Why do you always have to be damn difficult!" He groaned, running his hand through his hair in frustration.
"Because being easy isn't any fun and I want to come and I'm going to!" She yelled back.
"Fine! But what if we get in a fight like I said? You won't be able to defend yourself properly!" Trunks growled, still trying to dissuade her.
"Pft, I could waste any of those faggits with my eyes closed!" She gloated. "Even if I couldn't, you're there for me. I trust you Trunks, I know you would never let anything happen to me." She replied in a soothing voice, her eyes looking up into Trunks with sincerity. "I trust you more then anyone." She continued, her voice a soft whisper.
He looked down at her with a glare, not buying any of her act. "Pan you're mean!" He sighed in defeat. "You don't fight fair!"
She grinned up at him knowing that she had won the argument. "I never said I did!"
oo0000oo
Trunks, Pan and Abice stood at the ready, waiting for the door to swing open. They only had ten minutes left to wait but the seconds slowly ticked by, making it feel like hours!
"Trunks you baka! Why the hell did you set it for 2:30? Because of you, we've been sitting here for hours doing nothing!" Pan moaned.
"Shut-up Pan, it's not like you do anything anyway! Plus if I had made it any earlier, some one might have already been up and we would have gotten snapped before we even got anywhere! Quit moaning anyway, because I set it this late you were able to heal up a bit." He retorted indignantly.
She went to reply but just at that moment the door swung open and so instead she rushed out. "Last one to the lab owes me a foot rub!" She whispered excitedly as she flew off in a flash, giddy from the little bit of freedom that she finally had.
"Pan, Pan, PAN!" Trunks whispered frantically, trying to stop her. "That damn woman's going to kill us all!" He muttered angrily as he set off after her and Abice who was laughing softly.
oo0000oo
She waited moodily for Abice and Trunks to show up, man what could be taking them so long? She would have continued on but Trunks was the brains in this out fit and she needed him to open the lab doors. So to her utter annoyance she was made to wait.
After about ten more minutes Abice rounded the corner followed slowly by Trunks.
"Gow about damn time you two, I've been waiting for fifteen minutes! Gosh what were you two doing, taking a romantic mid-night stroll?" She inquired with a small smirk.
"Dammit Pan, you could have gotten us caught the way you took off like that!" Trunks growled, scolding her.
"Oh whatever Trunks, the way you two move, everyone we'll be awake before we get to find anything out! Now hurry-up and get over here and open this door, I can't wait to get in there!" She responded, practically jumping out of her skin.
Trunks walked over to the door and set to work on getting them in the lab. A faint click was heard and then a loud grating noise as the steel doors slid open. Wincing, they all quickly hurried into the lab before the doors closed again, all afraid that they had roused the guards. Upon arriving in the lab, they all set out in different directions in search of the Doc's office.
"Hey guys, over here!" Abice yelled as quietly as possible. "I think I found it!"
Both Pan and Trunks rushed over and all three of them clambered into the small secluded office. Wasting no time, Trunks set out furiously trying to hack into the Doc's computer while Abice and Pan waited in anticipation.
Trunks sucked in a deep breath which made both Pan and Abice rush over to his side.
"Well, what is it?" She asked quietly.
"That freakin monster is cloning us!" Trunks growled.
"What?!"
"He's cloning you and me, Pan. He's planning on making a whole Saiyan army out of the two of us. Already he's cloned about 50 specimens but they've all been a failure. He hasn't been able to get it right and so as a result all the clones can't progress. They stay exactly the same as what they were when they were first created and so they are unable to increase their power levels. They have the exact power level as what we did at the time when they extracted the blood from us. Since a lot of them were made when you were in a coma, their power levels are no stronger then a human. That's why they're set on making us go super saiyan. Since they're unable to figure out what keeps going wrong, they're just going to take the blood from us when we're in our strongest and then they'll have the perfect killing machines." Trunks explained in disgust.
"If they're just cloning you two, what are they using me for?" Abice interrupted.
"Well it seems to me that your cells have rapid regenerating characteristics. That's why you can heal quite alarmingly fast Abice but when they combine your blood with ours in one clone, the results are devastating. Your cells increase our healing abilities by a hundred fold, so that the end result is a rapid healing clone. It's like you could slice the clones arm and behind the blade the arm would be healing it self. So that by the time you have finished slicing his arm, it has already healed. I think that is why Pan didn't take so long to recover today."
"But Trunks if that's the case, how come I got tired at all? By the sounds of things, it's like you can't even hurt these guys because they heal before you even get the chance." Pan asked, butting into the conversation.
"That's because you have more of you're blood in you then that of Abice. So instead of increasing you're healing factor by one hundred percent, it increases it by ten." Trunks said, taking on the voice of an adult explaining to a small child. "What they've done with these clones is really quite amazing though despite the glitches. Not only have they combined Abice's genetic code with ours but also they've put in their genetic code. So that they've created a super healing, ki sucking, Saiyan. Further more, he has programmed a shared memory into all the clones of their planet being destroyed and Odin sweeping down and saving them. So in their minds they think that Odin is like their savior and so they'll do what he wants without question. But Odin's being careful so that he won't have any trouble with them doing his bidding, so he has altered their emotions so that they have been stripped of everything that makes a person decent and noble. The end result is a monstrous killing machine. It's actually quite clever."
"So what you're saying is that if Odin gets to make his army, we're screwed." Pan stated as she took in all this information.
"Not just us, but the whole damn universe!" Trunks replied calmly despite the situation. "He's another Frieza."
"What are we going to do?" Abice asked the question that they were all thinking.
"Nothing right now, we have to get back to the cell. The Doc will be getting up pretty soon so we'll discuss everything when we get back." Trunks replied with finality as he shut the computer back down.
"Well I don't know about you two but I'm definitely going for a shower before I go back to that damn cell. I can't stand being this filthy. Three months, one week and two hours, that's how long I have had to go without a shower. It's disgusting and I'm not going another minute without one!" Pan fumed, rushing off in search of the shower that she had seen.
"Pan you can't, they'll know!" Trunks cautioned, grabbing her hand.
"Well to bad Trunks I'm going for a shower and that's it!" She said, trying to rip her grip from him.
"No you're not! Pan you could ruin everything! I won't let you!" Trunks countered, staring down at her.
She looked back at him angrily and then slumped her shoulders, "Fine!" She replied as she slowly began to strip her clothes off.
"Pan what the hell are you doing!" Trunks asked in a panic as he watched her rip her shirt off.
"What does it look like? I'm taking off my clothes, if you ain't going to let go of me then I'm just going to have to take you with me for a shower now ain't I?" She replied calmly as she went to remove her pants that would leave her fully exposed.
Trunks' hand snaked out and stopped her before it was able to undo her buttons. "Pan don't, you can go for your shower just stop this right now!" He growled as he looked at Abice's intense gaze that was locked on Pan's breasts hungrily.
Laughing she picked up her shirt and then sauntered off to the shower. "You know, you two might as well have a shower too. Hate to tell you but yous stink something bad."
"That sounds like a good idea Pan, I think I'll come and join you that way we could save time!" Abice replied eagerly as he lifted his shirt over his head.
"Like hell you are!" Trunks growled as he picked up Abice by the throat and slammed him against the wall.
Well there you go people! Another boring chapter but I had to explain there situation so oh well!
Reply to annonies... (You may want to skip this bit if you weren't an annonie because my replies tend to be rather long.)
KAI THE FELINE DRAGON MONKEY
O.K I'm really, really, really -put a lot of stress on the ''really''- sorry for the late up-date and totally promise to make it up to you! Hey this one I intend to keep lol O.K I pinky promise you that I'll be more frequent with my up-dates! Come on you just have to accept that! A pinky promise is more binding then a blood oath!
Haha yeah that was a dorky love scene but my mate Roger said the whole ''walking through your garden and stealing your roses'' speech to me and I just had to use it lol
Yup I plan on elaborating on Trunks' and Pan's promise in the near future. Sometime when Abice is gone to the lab and Pan and Trunks have the cell to themselves so that Trunks can make his move and ''talk'' a lot of things over. Yes and chocolate is one of the best things in the world!
Trunks-San: I do not like her O.K! When I freaked out back then it was only over brotherly affection and that's it! O.K I'll be honest, I did enjoy that kiss but it was nothing more then lust. After all I'M still HUMAN and I can't help it if a woman throws herself at me and I get caught up in the moment and kiss her back! And I do not LOVE her, how many times do I have to tell you!
Pan-San: Yeah, yeah O.K I admit that I wanted to kiss him. But it was just out of curiosity, I just wanted to know what made all the woman swoon after him and I must say that I was disappointed! It won't happen again!
P.S Can't wait for you to get an account! It will be really fun to read your stories I reckon, if you decide to post some that is. After all your reviews always make me laugh!
P.S.S Nah sweet as, I don't mind having to respond on the chapters. It's all goodey!
MissPurple: Yeah I really feel like killing him off too! Lol
Well here we go people!!
