The beeping sound was incredibly loud to my ears, and it pounded away like a headache, forcing me to open my eyes and make some sort of movement. But as I did my whole body ached in every joint and I felt unbelievably weak, as though id undergone some major operation and I was coming round from anaesthetic. I made a little croaking noise, it was the only noise I could produce, my throat and mouth where dry and it hurt to speak.
'What's happening to me' where my only thoughts as I lay there helplessly, at least I was laying on something soft, and where ever I was, was warm. But the smell, I had never smelt anything like it. It was disgusting, but that was the least of my worries. Several questions filled my mind and the more I thought of them the more I panicked.
Where was Trunks? Where am I? Why do I feel so weak? What was that horrendous smell? And what on earth was that beeping noise?!
My whole body shot up at the sound of voices, and I gripped the soft clumps of material that covered what I lay on, it helped me keep my balance.
"TRUNKS???!!!!!" I screamed out in desperation and fear, desperate to have Trunks by my side as I couldn't sense him, and out of fear of the unknown, I had no idea of where I was, and not being able to see tripled that fear.
And now because of my little out burst there was total silence, the voices I could no longer hear and it freaked me out. I couldn't sense anything, as if I was on some deserted planet and I was all alone.
"Pan, your awake" his voice filled the room and my chest swelled as I breathed in deeply, throwing my hands out for him to take. And as soon as he touched me I gasped the breath I had been holding and threw myself at him, he was my comfort blanket and I hated being separated from him.
"Where am I?" I choked out licking my lips in some attempt in wetting them.
"Home" his voice was not its usual pitch, instead it was unusually high toned and cheerful.
"Vegitasei?" I asked, already knowing the answer to my question.
"No" his voice held a hidden smile I couldn't see, but knew was there.
"Earth" I smiled, somewhat relieved, somewhat curious.
"So this is my brothers daughter" a voice entered the room, and I sensed the voice also had a high energized ki.
"Goten?" I asked, I was a bit unsure if I should call him by his first name, I didn't really know him.
"Its taken some time but we've all been expecting you" I heard a slight giggle in his voice and cocked an eye brow turning to where I knew Trunks was now sat on the bed.
"You have?" I asked.
"Oh yeah, and man has it been a wait" he chuckled and I heard the faint sound of another more feminine giggle.
"Why did you leave?" I asked, not caring if it was too sudden to ask such a question.
"Why don't we get you dressed in something a little more suitable and come down for some lunch?" he asked distracting himself from having to answer the question.
"Excellent idea, we'll follow you down" Trunks cheered and I didn't even get a say in because the door closed leaving me and Trunks alone.
"I'm sorry I wasn't here when you woke up, I was helping Marron with lunch" Trunks explained whilst making a little racket in the corner of the room I was in.
"Marron?" I asked with raised eyebrows. I heard Trunks stop what he was doing; he must be looking at me right now.
"That's Aunt Marron to you" he chuckled.
"This Marron is my uncle's mate?" I enquired further; I couldn't deny I was seriously jealous that this Marron had been spending time with Trunks.
"Yes she is, now here, put these on and you can ask all the questions you want at lunch" Trunks said has he handed me a bunch of clothes and waited for me to move.
"I've seen it all before, now come one before I dress you myself" he teased me and my mouth dropped open in shock.
"Who said you could bring my mothers attitude alone with you on this trip" I scowled at him and he laughed. I slowly stepped out of the bed I had been in and shivered, it wasn't so warm anymore, in fact it was incredibly cold.
"Its prickly" I mumbled as I pulled the prickly material over my face.
"It's a jumper, its what earthlings wear when the weather is cold" strangely enough he had just answered the question I had been thinking.
"You look cute" he teased and I blushed.
"Stop it" I put my hand to my cheek and laughed to myself.
"And soon you will be able to see just how cute you look" he walked to me and pulled me into a hug, that thought made me smile.
"We better go down before they start thinking things" I pushed him away gently. He laughed and we made our way to the door, and when we left the room the disgusting smell became immensely stronger and I held my breath.
"You'll get used to it" Trunks squeezed my hand.
"The earthlings have an odd scent, it'll never go unnoticed" He mumbled the last bit to himself. But still I held my breath.
"Oh, by the way" Trunks stopped me for a moment.
"I wouldn't expect much conversation out of Marron" he lowered his voice.
"Why" I asked, hoping she wasn't one of them rude obnoxious women that were just asking for a slap.
"Shes deaf"

Brenu – Can't wait to write more, hehe.
Maltese – Princess – Im very touched that you think I have a gift, im struggling writing anything at the moment I have huge writers block and just about forced myself to write this chapter. I don't want to let any of you down by not completing this story, even though its far from being completed.
Raditzs Onna – Ive got it all planned out in how I want Pan to see Trunks for the first time. Im excited to write that but im struggling with the chapters leading up to it. Ill try and get some more chapters up ASAP.
Tweenager – I really don't like that last chapter, but I didn't want them to just land on earth with them having done nothing on there travels. By the way, I found my inspiration, I'm going to base Marron on someone special I met, that was my inspiration. But anyway, hope this chapters much better.
