Chapter 27: Lunis' Change

Everyone stared at Yamako with wide eyes. They all glanced at each other briefly before they looked at Yamako again with curious expressions. Yamako smirked and bent down next to her backpack. She grabbed a small pill box out of the bag and stood up. Trunks and Pan glanced at each other before turning back to Yamako while everyone else simply stared at Yamako.

"Can you do that?" Pan asked.

Yamako nodded. "Yeah. I've got 1 of Grandma Bulma's canine smart pills. He eats this and he'll be as strong as Krillin and be able to do everything that Lunis could do in my world."

Pan looked unsure. "I think maybe we should wait till he's older then. I don't know if it's a good idea to have a puppy with that kind of power."

Yamako smirked. "Well that's why you're so lucky to have someone of my brilliance around." Yamako said as she pulled the pill out. "This happened to be 1 of the things I worked on improving while I wasn't able to train because I was recovering from a battle with Rizaado or overdoing it while training. I made it so the first year isn't constant…meaning that over the first year Lunis' ki will grow until he becomes as strong as or even stronger than Krillin then it will stop growing and stay the same for the rest of his life provided he stays healthy and active."

"Wow you did that?" Pan asked in amazement.

"Wait…if you could do that then why didn't you get rid of the side-effects or the need for Saiyan DNA?" Bulma asked curiously.

Yamako shrugged. "Never felt like it. Besides if I had done that those pills would have been boring." Yamako said with a smirk.

Everyone kind of looked at her strangely and then nodded in understanding. Trunks and Pan nodded to each other before looking at Yamako.

"Alright." Pan stated simply.

Yamako smirked. "Perfect." Yamako stated as she bent down and held out her right hand towards Lunis.

Lunis hesitantly walked over at a slow pace and sniffed her hand. He sniffed the pill for a moment before sticking his tongue out slightly to taste it. Pulling back, he looked at it curiously before hesitantly moving forward and taking the pill into his mouth. He chomped down on the pill and after chewing it he swallowed it. After a few moments Lunis cocked his head to the side and a strange look crossed his face. He smacked his lips a couple times and when he did so little sparks of energy crackled around his mouth. He looked freaked and jumped back causing a little pulse of energy to radiate from his body. Everyone looked on amazed and wide eyed as all those who could sense ki registered his elevated ki and how it was spiking because of how freaked and scared Lunis was. Yamako chuckled and rolled her eyes as she bent to next to Lunis. Lunis looked scared when Yamako reached her hand out to touch him but Yamako actually gave him a small smile and he calmed slightly.

"Relax Fuzz-Face." Yamako said softly.

Lunis calmed at her words and wagged his tail slightly as Yamako placed her hand on his head. Yamako closed her eyes and flared her ki slightly (making it continuously fluctuate) as she incoherently whispered something (they assumed she was explaining everything) to him. Everyone watched in amazement as Lunis totally relaxed and closed his eyes as his new ki flared outwards to meet Yamako's ki in a fluctuating rhythm. The 2 kis clashed and mingled with each other as they both began synchronizing and matching in perfect harmony. After a moment Yamako's ki stabilized and lowered down to normal and she opened her eyes as she removed her hand from Lunis' head. Lunis looked dazed for a moment then he shook his head a little and looked around. He looked up at Yamako and smiled as his tail began wagging.

"Wow…!" Lunis yipped happily.

He paused and quirked his head to the side in bewilderment as he heard the sound of his own voice speaking like people. He pondered over this for a minute. Trunks, Pan, and the others looked on in wonder with wide eyes.

"Stra…nge…hear…ing…my…voice…" Lunis said slowly trying to get used to his new way of communication.

"Whoa! That's amazing!" Trunks exclaimed utterly astounded.

"Yeah…" Pan uttered in amazement.

Everyone else just nodded their heads in agreement. Yamako smirked at them and looked down at Lunis who was looking at everyone and everything in admiration. Lunis blinked at them curiously for a second.

"Whoa…I…can…under…stand…you…" Lunis said slowly; still not used to his new form of speech.

Pan and Trunks glanced at each other in confusion for a second. They thought he had figured that out when Yamako told him to relax.

"You mean you couldn't before…?" Pan asked curiously.

"Not…till…just now…" Lunis answered a little more normally; finally getting used to his new voice.

"Well…then how did you know to calm down or what was going on?" Trunks asked.

"My ki." Yamako stated.

Everyone turned their attention to her and looked at her with confusion. They weren't sure what she meant by that. Yamako sighed at seeing their confused faces.

"It's an ancient Saiyan communication technique. Messages are sent through the ki, laced within the energy, and the ki that matches it and spans out to touch it receives the message. The transmitting brain codes the desired sentences into different energy frequencies and patterns, which is laced within the ki and then sent to the receiving brain, which then decodes them back into sentences. Since Lunis' DNA is now mixed with Saiyan DNA his brain was able to decode the message I sent once his ki instinctually reached out to touch mine." Yamako calmly explained.

"Whoa. Like a kind of Saiyan telepathy. Neat! But…how come you never told us, even me, about that before Yamako?" Pan asked.

Yamako shrugged. "Never came up. The only reason Grandpa Vegeta taught me the technique was because of us constantly needing to be on the look out for Rizaado and we needed to be able to stay in contact, especially if we got into a fight with him." Yamako spoke simply.

Lunis excitedly nodded his head. "Right…felt message. …Strange energy…with message."

Yamako chuckled slightly. "His brain will progressively adapt to his new level of intelligence and allow him to talk in normal sentences. It'll take a full year to reach his full level of intelligence. During that time, he'll have to learn about things like any normal child that comes across an unfamiliar word. He doesn't really know what 'ki' is or what 'Saiyans' are and such. Perhaps…you 2 could teach him about things Aunt Bra, Marron?" Yamako paused for a moment. "After all neither of you train and since Lunis will probably be spending most of his time during the day with you because Pan will be training you might as well teach him about everything."

Bra and Marron looked at each other for a second. They shrugged at each other before turning back to Yamako.

"It's alright with us." Bra stated.

"Great." Yamako said emotionlessly before she hoisted the backpack over her shoulder as she turned around and walked off. "Let's go Shinabi. You've missed out on enough training as it is. We've got to get you used to training in 1000 times normal gravity before next month if you want to be on track for becoming a Super Saiyan 4 before Rizaado shows up. Introduce Lunis to everyone and then leave Bra and Marron to teaching the little mutt everything. I'll be waiting in my Gravity Chamber." Yamako said over her shoulder as she walked away.

Everyone's eyes went as wide as dinner plates at Yamako's words. Even Vegeta's eyes widen in shock at hearing the level of gravity Yamako wanted Pan to train under. He could only train at about 700 times gravity without getting crushed and even then he was barely able to move yet it seemed Pan and Yamako were training at much higher levels than that. They all turned and stared at her in shock. Pan gave them a sheepish grin.

"Pan…" Gohan started slowly staring intently at his daughter.

"Yes Dad...?" Pan asked hesitantly.

"Is what Yamako said true…? Are you 2 training at 1000 times normal gravity?"

"Well…it's only 975 for now… That's all I can handle and still be able to move with even ½ my speed but we're working up to it. Yamako expects me to be capable of handling at least 1600 by the time Rizaado attacks so I have to be able to handle 1000 by next month to be on track and that's just me… I have no idea what Yamako's goal is for the level of gravity for her. All I know is it has to be way more than the 1 she has for me because she has no problems moving in 975 times normal gravity."

Everyone's eyes widen a little more and their jaws drop open. They stare at Pan in absolute shock.

"Are you serious…?" Trunks asked.

Pan nodded slowly.

"What's the highest level Yamako has trained in?"

Pan thought it over for a second. She brought her hand up to her chin and looked diagonally off to the sky as she tried to remember the amount of gravity she had seen Yamako training under.

"Hmm…last week when I came in from our training I think I saw her turn the gravity up to…what was it…8000 I think?" Pan said as she still looked off into space and appeared to still be deep in thought.

Everyone's eyes nearly popped out of their skulls with this information and a loud THUNK was heard as everyone's jaws (including Vegeta's) hit the ground. Pan snapped out of her thoughtful state and turned to look at their amazed faces. She laughed nervously and gave a sheepish grin as put 1 hand behind her head (finally showing her true relation to Goku).

"Of course when she was training under that gravity it looked like she was completely comfortable in it. I'm not sure how much gravity she's truly capable of handling." Pan said nervously.

"9100." a voice said from behind.

Everyone whirled around to see Yamako standing with her arms crossed over her chest in the classic 'Vegeta' stance. She looked at them with a blank emotionless scowl plastered on her face. Yamako now wore a new red midriff tank top, new baggy black pants, and new black fingerless gloves. She looked as though her day was just starting and not like she had been up almost all night. However, she wasn't wearing a new leather jacket (she was wearing 1 of her older ones as a vest since she didn't have to worry about the consequences of it getting trashed to the point of it revealing her brand considering they had all seen it already) and her new tattoo was being proudly displayed. The burned skin around the new tattoo was already showing signs of healing.

Yamako had come back after she had changed her clothes and washed off the ink and blood from her body and then had not found Pan in the Gravity Chamber when she went back out there. She knew that it shouldn't have taken that long to introduce Lunis so she wondered what was taking Pan so long. She had arrived just in time to hear Pan's last statement and decided to answer their questions so Pan could get away from the interrogation and come join her for some much needed training. Everyone looked at Yamako in question and Yamako simply raised an eyebrow at them in response to their stares.

"You wanted to know what level of gravity I could handle… 9100 times normal gravity is what I can actually train under and still move fairly easily. The highest level of gravity I can be in before I can't even stand up anymore is about 9350." Yamako clarified after a moment with a careless shrug.

If it was possible everyone's eyes grew another fraction larger and their jaws dropped a little more. They stared at Yamako in utter disbelief as even Pan looked at her like she had just sprouted wings or a second head. Yamako rolled her eyes and scoffed.

"What's the big deal…? I mean I was born a Super Saiyan…" Yamako said carelessly with a shrug as she looked away from them but was interrupted by a unanimous gasp of shock and she glanced at all of them briefly. "Or…did I forget to mention that little detail…?"

"As a matter of fact you did Yamako…" Pan struggled out after taking a moment to find her voice.

"Well now you know… Anyways…I was training under 500 times gravity with Grandpa Vegeta when I was 5 and a 1000 with him when I was 10."

Everybody just stared at Yamako in complete astonishment as Yamako simply rolled her eyes and turned her head to look at Pan. She gave Pan a hard look.

"Come on Shinabi! We've got a lot of training to catch up on. Hurry up and introduce The-Mutt then get over to the Gravity Chamber! Now move it!" Yamako ordered harshly as she did a 180 and headed towards where her Gravity Chamber was located.

Pan took a moment to collect her thoughts before she cleared her throat and looked down at Lunis who was looking around at everyone confused. He didn't understand what was going on or what was shocking everyone. He instantly locked eyes with Pan when she bent down next to him.

"Hey Lunis. Do you…know…who I am…?" Pan asked uncertainly.

Lunis nodded. "You Pan."

Pan smiled. "That's right. What about him…?" Pan asked with a nod in Trunks' direction.

Lunis looked at Trunks. "Him Trunks."

"Right again." Pan beamed. "I'm in charge of taking care of you. So you need to listen to what I tell you and do them…ok…?" Pan asked.

Lunis nodded. "Ok."

"Alright…" Pan smiled before picking him up and holding him so his back was against her chest. "This is my father Gohan." Pan said to Lunis while pointing to Gohan.

"Gohan." Lunis repeated with a wag of his tail.

"Right…and this is my mother Videl."

"Videl."

Pan went around and introduced everyone that was there and what their connection to both her and him were. In about 10 minutes Lunis knew everyone in the group and how they related to him and especially how they related to who he took orders from. When Pan introduced Vegeta Lunis grinned widely at him and tried to jump out of Pan's arms and into Vegeta's arms. However, Pan held on to him tightly and told him not to bother Vegeta. Lunis was a little upset about this but nodded in understanding; still grinning brightly at Vegeta. Just as Pan finished the introductions a loud slam was heard.

"SHINABI GET YOUR ASS OVER HERE NOW WE'VE GOT TRAINING TO DO!" Yamako's voice thundered from around the house where her Gravity Chamber was located.

Pan whirled around as the thundering voice startled her and looked off to where Yamako was. She took a couple deep breaths to calm her nerves before turning back to everyone, who were also trying to calm themselves.

"She yells louder than you do Woman." Vegeta scoffed as he shot a look at his mate.

Bulma whirled on him with a look of fury written on her face. She then proceeded to rant and rave at Vegeta for the implied insult. Everyone just rolled their eyes and ignored them as Pan moved towards Bra.

"Here B. Take care of the little tyke for me. He's probably got a lot of questions about everything." Pan said as she passed Lunis into Bra's arms.

"Sure thing Pan." Bra smiled as she gently took Lunis into her arms.

"Lunis…" Pan said as she bent down to be eye level with the puppy. "You be good for Bra and listen to what she tells you. Alright?" Pan asked once Lunis had turned to look at her.

"Yeah." Lunis answered with a smile.

Pan smiled back before her head shot around when she felt Yamako's ki spike with anger. She stood up straight and looked off to where Yamako was.

"I'd better go before she ends up blowing up something." Pan said to everyone as she started racing off towards where Yamako was. She turned back to look over her shoulder at everyone. "See you all tonight! Later Trunks!"

"Later Pan! …Oh and Pan…!" Trunks called after her.

Pan stopped and turned back to him slightly. "Yeah Trunks…?"

"Can you meet me tonight…? I've got something else to give you."

Pan smiled. "Same time same place…?"

Trunks nodded and Pan's smile broadened. She nodded slightly.

"I'll be there." Pan declared before she raced off to Yamako again.

Pan reached the Gravity Chamber a few seconds later only to find a slightly disheveled looking Yamako standing just outside with a pissed off expression on her face. Her face was contorted by her eyes being narrowed into slits and her scowl was now a deep frown of anger. Her arms were crossed firmly over her chest and her right foot tapped impatiently as she stared at Pan. Pan gave a sheepish grin and let out a nervous laugh as she quickly stepped in front of Yamako just a foot away from her. Yamako gave her a hard long glare before letting out a growl and rolling her eyes as she turned back towards the Gravity Chamber entrance. She walked into the Gravity Chamber and Pan quickly followed, letting out a breath of relief when Yamako didn't shout or strike her for taking so long. Once Pan was inside the Gravity Chamber slid shut and bolted closed. Yamako was at the console and was busily typing in commands. The lights dimmed and the graviton hummed as it turned on.

Soon Pan felt the force of 975 times normal gravity weighing down on her and she instantly jumped into Feral Super Saiyan 3 mode. In an instant Yamako was also in Feral Super Saiyan 3 mode and she attacked Pan fiercely, not giving Pan the chance to fully adjust to the level of gravity she was in. Pan barely managed to evade the attack and then countered with 1 of her own. Yamako easily dodged and since she had no problems in this gravity she soon had Pan at her mercy. Pan managed to stay conscious and put up a decent defense all things considered and as the training session wore on it became easier and easier for Pan to move under the gravity. By lunchtime she was able to move around the Gravity Chamber with 1/3 her speed despite her depleted ki and injuries. They both headed inside to eat lunch. Yamako normally would have skipped lunch but since she didn't have breakfast she didn't have a choice. Her body needed food. When lunch was over both Saiyans returned to their vigorous training until dinnertime. Once they were finished with dinner they returned to the Gravity Chamber to continue training for another few hours until about 11. At that point Pan called it a day while Yamako chose to train for another ½ hour before taking a break long enough for her to shower and change for the Oozaru training with Goku, Gohan, and Vegeta. Pan went right to her room and entered through the window when she finished her training. She simply headed straight into the shower and then changed into a pair of blue-grey sweat pants and lime green tank top before relaxing in her room reading a book (she didn't see the point in going down to watch the last 15 or 20 minutes of a movie) with Lunis until a couple minutes before 12. This is when she headed up to the roof to meet Trunks.

SCENE CHANGE

Trunks smiled at her retreating form and despite his mental protests his eyes drifted to her backside. A smirk slowly spread across his face.

Nice ass… Trunks mentally shook his head. Whoa. Get a hold of yourself. This is Pan! Panny! You should not be thinking that or looking at her like that! Stop staring at her butt! Trunks gave a small shake of his head before turning to go inside after giving a brief glance at everyone (no 1 seemed to notice his behavior or what he had been staring at a moment ago).

Everyone casually dispersed and went off to do their own things. Chichi and Videl went to den and talked for awhile before sitting and watching some TV for a little bit. When they couldn't find anything good on TV they ended up doing things like reading and mending ripped clothes and such. Once Bulma had finished her argument with Vegeta she headed to her lab for a few hours and worked on her latest invention. Then the 3 women got together to prepare lunch and then the 3 joined Bra and Marron in going to the mall for some shopping. They came back to prepare dinner, after which they spent the night talking and having fun together. Chichi and Videl went to bed at around 10 with their husbands simply laying down beside them until they had to go off for their Oozaru training. When they went off to bed Bulma went to work in her lab for an hour or so before finally heading to bed.

Bra and Marron decided it would be best and safest to teach Lunis how to control his new ki so he wouldn't accidentally break or blow up something. They took Lunis to the side yard and proceeded to teach him the basics of using and controlling his ki. They taught him to fly and how to control his ki well enough that he wouldn't create shockwaves of ki every time he shook himself. They then decided it was time to give Lunis the grand tour of the house. They began showing Lunis around the house and as they gave him the tour they explained all the things to him that he didn't understand or know about. They explained what everything was and what it was used for. They told him about everybody and what to or not to do when in the presence of certain people (like Vegeta not wanting to be bothered). They showed him about ¾ of the house by the time lunch rolled around and after lunch they quickly showed him the rest of the house before Bra and Marron went shopping with Bulma, Chichi, and Videl.

While they did this Lunis did some exploring of his own. He went around looking for small places that only he could fit into to use as hideouts or places to relax. He found all the little nooks and hidden spots that he could hideout in to stay out of the way but also be comfortable. He picked a secluded corner in the den that was inaccessible to anybody but him (a chair was in the corner so the only way to get to the corner was to crawl under the chair) and he settled down into it for a nap. When Bra and Marron returned with Bulma, Chichi, and Videl he came out to lie in Bra's lap while she and Marron watched TV until dinner. When dinner was over they were joined by Trunks, Goten, and Uub. Lunis was introduced to Uub and was told about him by Trunks as Lunis jumped into Trunks' lap and took a nap while they watched TV and movies. When Marron and Uub went home Lunis awoke long enough to say 'good-bye' to them before going back to sleep in Trunks' lap again. At 11 Lunis woke up when he heard the shower in Pan's bathroom being turned on and he quickly jumped down from Trunks' lap to go investigate (he couldn't sense ki very well yet so he didn't know if it was Pan or not). Lunis padded up the stairs to Pan's room after saying 'good-night' to Trunks, Goten, and Bra and looked around for Pan. Recognizing her scent coming from the bathroom he jumped up onto her bed and curled up at the foot of it (where he had slept the previous night) to wait for her to come out. When he did he happily greeted her and then curled up on her stomach as she lay on the bed with a book to read. When Pan left to meet Trunks Lunis went back to the foot of her bed and curled up into a ball there. He sunk into the soft comforter and quickly fell asleep.

SCENE CHANGE

Meanwhile Goku and Gohan went off to train in the new training arena Bulma had recently built for them and once Vegeta and Bulma had finished their argument he joined them. The 3 trained hard until lunchtime when they took a break to eat before heading right back out to do more training till dinner. After dinner Goku and Gohan relaxed and conserved their energy for their midnight Oozaru lessons until their mates went to bed at around 10, which is when they laid down next to them to have a nap before their training. Vegeta, however, headed right back out to train in the Gravity Chamber after dinner until it was time for Goku and Gohan's lessons.

Goten went off to find Trunks after standing around for a moment looking confused so they could train. The 2 boys trained in the other ½ of the new training arena until lunchtime. After lunch Uub showed up to join them and the 3 continued where Trunks and Goten had left off. When dinner rolled around Uub stayed for it and once dinner was done he, Trunks, and Goten ended up relaxing in the den with Marron and Bra. The 5 ended up watching TV and movies for the rest of the evening. Trunks claimed the big comfy easy chair while Bra spread out on the loveseat and Goten, Uub, and Marron relaxed on the long couch. Around 8 Marron decided it was time that she headed home. Uub decided to escort Marron home since it was on the way to his home and he thought it was time for him to go home as well. At 11 Trunks, Goten, and Bra sensed Pan come in from her training and said 'good-night' to Lunis when he went upstairs to be with Pan. Around 11:30 Bra fell asleep on the loveseat she was sitting on and Goten carried her to her room and set her on her bed before heading off to sleep himself. Trunks said 'good-night' to Goten as he watched him take his little sister to bed before going to his own bed. Trunks then made himself a quick snack before grabbing the tickets that had arrived around dinnertime and then headed up to the roof to wait for Pan. He was up there a full 15 minutes early but that was fine with him. He wasn't going allow himself to even have the risk of being late this time. He had been late twice already on her birthday so he wasn't about to be late this time.

SCENE CHANGE

Pan landed on the roof near where Trunks was sitting. She walked over to him with a smile and sat down next to him. Trunks turned to grin at her as she sat down but froze when he saw what she was wearing. Trunks jaw went slightly slack and his eyes widened.

Oh man does that look hot! She's barely clothed and that outfit is just so sexy. How can anyone possibly look that gorgeous wearing such raggedy clothes? Oh man does she look good…

"On time for once I see eh Trunks." Pan joked.

Trunks snapped out of his thoughts and mentally shook his head to clear it of all the disturbing thoughts that had no business being inside his head. Pan gave him a curious look when Trunks didn't respond and moved to try and get a better look at his face. Trunks seemed to have spaced out but when he saw Pan's concerned face move to look more closely at his he laughed lightly and wrapped an arm around her shoulders with a small blush spread across his face. Both of them blushed as a warm sensation shot through them. Trunks and Pan both looked away from each other briefly and then Trunks coughed a little as he removed his arm from around Pan. Pan nervously tucked a strand of hair behind her ear as she looked down. Trunks glanced at Pan out of the corner of his eye before he cleared his throat to gain her attention.

"Well Pan…I know I still owe you for being late to your birthday and I thought that maybe this would make up for it…" Trunks said as he dug into his pocket.

Trunks pulled out a small envelope and quickly handed it to Pan. Pan looked at him strangely but excitedly before she hurriedly opened the envelope. She reached inside and her face lit up with joy and amazement.

"TICKETS TO THE BLACK LYCANTHROPE CONCERT!" Pan shrieked happily as she pulled out the tickets (Black Lycanthrope is a possible name of the band my friend is trying to start).

Trunks grinned at her response and nodded as Pan turned to look at him. He let out a happy laugh at seeing her ecstatic face. The tickets had the picture of a black forward facing wolf head almost completely hidden in shadow with a red 'B' and grey 'L' interlinked in the center with white outlines.

"2 front row center stage tickets. You can take who ever you want to the concert."

"Trunks how in the world did you get these?! They've been sold out for months!"

Trunks grinned. "Well I am the president of the world's largest company. I called a few people. Got a few favors. No big deal."

"It is a big deal Trunks…I love Black Lycanthrope. They are my favorite band."

"Well…anything for my best girl…" Trunks blushed after he said that.

Pan smiled and threw her arms around his neck happily. Trunks was knocked onto his back by the force in which Pan put into the hug. Pan landed with herself lying on top of him and their chests pressed together. Trunks tensed at the feel of her on top of him and at the position they were in. He found that he enjoyed having Pan this close to him and being in this position. Trunks gulped and hesitantly wrapped her arms around her as his body shivered with the sensation of her breath brushing against the skin on his neck. Pan tensed and abruptly pulled away as soon as she realized exactly how she and Trunks were situated. Pan blushed profusely as she looked away from Trunks and tucked some more hair behind her ear in nervousness. Trunks sat up on his elbows and watched her. He became mesmerized as he saw the light from the stars reflecting off her face and eyes.

Beautiful…

Pan whirled towards him and looked at him in question. "What did you say…?"

Trunks straightened and coughed nervously. "Nothing…"

"Yes you did… I heard you…" Pan stated slowly.

"I didn't say anything…" Trunks exclaimed quickly. Not out loud at least…

"I could've sworn…" Pan trailed. "Forget it…I must be losing it…" Pan said with a shake of her head.

Trunks cleared his throat as he sat back up. Pan turned back to watch him.

"Anyways…have you thought about who you're going to take to the concert…?" Trunks asked; trying to change the subject and ease the tension.

"Well I was actually thinking you could go with me… I know you love Black Lycanthrope almost as much as I do. Bra and Marron don't really like that hard rock music (think mix of Crossfade, Breaking Benjamin, and 3 Doors Down) and they would feel hurt if I chose 1 over the other; same goes for Uncle Goten and Uub. There is no way I'm taking Mom, Bulma, or Grandma Chichi to that concert and Dad and Grandpa Goku wouldn't really like that music let alone fit in to that kind of scene; besides who wants to go with people over twice my age anyway. The only people besides you that might actually like that music are Vegeta and Yamako and I'm not crazy enough to ask them to go. I know that neither of them are going to take time away from training to go to a concert. I'd much rather spend the night with you." Pan blushed after she said that; realizing that in different circumstances it could be misconstrued.

Trunks blushed a little too but he smiled anyway and nodded his head in agreement to her request. Pan beamed brightly and cheered as she jumped to her feet. Trunks laughed as she did this and rose to his feet behind her. Pan turned around and slowly approached him. Pan slowly wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her head into his shoulder. Trunks took in a breath and his heart rate quickened at the action. He wrapped his arms around her waist in response and pulled her closer; burying his nose in her hair. He inhaled her scent deeply and as he did a comforting and completing feeling flowed through him. Pan let out a deep sigh and it sent shivers down Trunks spine causing him to almost noticeably shudder.

"Thank you so much for the tickets Trunks. This is the best gift anyone has ever gotten me." Pan whispered into his ear; sending another shiver down his spine. "You're the best friend anyone could have." Pan said as she turned and planted a kiss on his cheek, right next to his mouth.

Pan backed away from him with a small smile and blush covering her cheeks. She turned and moved to head back inside with her concert tickets held firmly in her hands. She paused when she reached the edge of the roof and turned to look over her shoulder at Trunks. She let out a small laugh at seeing his stunned expression and whispered 'good night' to him before she turned back forward. She slowly took off into the sky and floated down to her room. She climbed in the window and greeted Lunis, who was instantly awake and eagerly awaiting her. She took a few minutes to calm Lunis down and safely stash her tickets in her nightstand until the concert before she crawled into bed for the night. In about 5 minutes she was sound asleep and Lunis followed her into dream land just a minute later.

SCENE CHANGE

Trunks remained completely frozen and simply stared off into space with a blank expression as Pan pulled out of his arms and headed back inside. Many minutes later Trunks finally regained his composure and headed in himself. He had no idea where all these new thoughts and feelings were coming from but he knew he had to find a way to get them under control before he did something that would ruin his friendship with Pan. Trunks didn't know how he was going to be able to handle a whole 3 hours with her. As it was he could barely handle being around her for an hour maybe less without having disturbing feelings and thoughts about her. He knew that it would be too risky to go to the concert with his body and mind reacting to her the way it was now so Trunks made a pledge to use the next 4 months to get over this strange reaction towards Pan he'd been having lately. He was going to spend all his time becoming comfortable with her again the way he used to be. With that resolution in mind and firmly set he levitated into the air. He silently flew around the house to his bedroom window and climbed in. He changed out of his clothes and took a quick shower before changing into a pair of light yellow boxers and simple green sweat pants to sleep in. He climbed into bed and slowly drifted off to sleep. The last thought running through his mind as he lost consciousness was how adorable and amazing Pan looked when her eyes lit up as she saw her tickets.


Author's Note:Well now Lunis is capable of speaking and becoming as strong as Krillin and such with time. Also everyone now knows about the level of gravity Pan and Yamako can train under. Also it looks as though Trunks' feelings for Pan are continuing to develop. On top of that Trunks gave Pan the rest of her gift and they are both going to the concert together. What will happen at the concert? The answers will be given in the upcoming chapters. Anyways hope you all liked it and please remember to review!

P.S. The name for the band is a proposed name for my friend's possible future band so please don't steal it.
