Pan leaves the room and starts to approach the entrance to the rings. She passes Goten who's sitting on a bench with a towel around his neck, "good luck Pan, I hope I get to face you in the next round." She nods her head with a smile, "I hope so too Uncle Goten." She passes Majuub who gives her an intense look, "good luck Pan, I'm rooting for you." She returns the look back to Majuub and nods, "and here we go! The second round of the tournament is about to begin, first up on the left making his third tournament appearance, the mysterious MIGHTY MASK!" The crowd mildly cheers for Mighty Mask as he silently continues towards the ring. "And on the right, she is the granddaughter of Mr. Satan himself, making her second ever tournament appearance, the young upstart PAN!!" The crowd cheers wildly with chants of "PAN PAN PAN PAN!" She puts her head down and gives a half genuine smile. The two enter the ring and stand on opposite sides, the crowd still chanting for Pan." The gong is hit. "And with that may the second round of the tournament… BEGIN!" Mighty Mask cracks his knuckles and smiles, "this should be fun!" "Funny, I was just thinking the same thing" Pan retorts with a semi arrogant attitude. He suddenly begins rushing towards her before she vanishes. "Wha- Pan just vanished right in front of Mighty Mask's face. Where could she have gone!" "Huh she was just right he-" a foot connects to the back of Mighty Masks neck sending him flying forward and crashing to the ground. "WHAT AN IMPACT, I FELT THAT FROM HERE!" "JUST COUNT YOU STUPID REFEREE!" Chi Chi yells from the audience causing people to look at her awkwardly. "That's my little girl" Gohan thinks to himself with a smile watching on. "1... 2….3." as the announcers count grows everyone looks on but Mighty Mask shows no sign of getting back up. "7….8….9...10." "WHEW GREAT JOB PAN!" Chi Chi screams. "Folks Pan has won the match and will go on to the next round where she will face the ever impressive Goten!" She walks to the back with unsureness in her step and is greeted by Videl, Gohan. Goku, Goten and Majuub. "Great job Pan, I look forward to our upcoming match." Her eyes lighten up. "Yeah great work Pan, I look forward to seeing how you stand up to Goten, remember our training" he says, giving her a smile. Pan nods, and begins to walk off to the back, "something seemed up with her, she was awfully quiet and not receptive to everyone. She even walked off before I had the chance to congratulate her." "Gohan did you notice Pan, she looked pretty upset, maybe I should go talk to her?" "No no Videl, your match is up next, I'll go talk to her." "Are you sure Gohan? It doesn't start for another few-" "Videl, please I can talk to her." He gives her a reassuring smile which she reciprocates back. "Oh alright you big dope, go and help our little girl" she says and plants a small kiss on his cheek before walking away to prepare for her fight. Gohan approaches the fighter room and hears a noise come from behind the door. "Pan honey? Are you okay?" Pan wipes the tears off of her face, "yeah dad, I'm-I'm gonna be fine." He opens the door to see her sitting in the corner, "sweetie what's wrong? Talk to me, I'm here for you." "I don't even know dad, I'm worried about grandpa and letting him down, I act tough but in all reality it's because I don't believe in myself dad. I thought training with grandpa would help me, my new look but it didn't help. I know I should be happy that I am progressing in the tournament but it was against a nothing opponent." Gohan's expression drops, "I've never seen her like this, I need to watch what I say next." He walks over and sits next to his daughter, "Pan, I want you to know me and your mother and your grandpa Hercule are all so proud of you regardless of what happens here. You show dedication and heart, winning isn't everything Pan. You need to snap yourself out of feeling the need to prove yourself to anyone, you're twice as strong as your grandpa Goku was at that age and probably even stronger than I am." She looks up at Gohan with teary eyes again but sadness isn't behind them, "you-you mean that dad?" He looks down at her, "I do, you're a special little girl, I knew that from the day me and your mother had you." She gives her father a hug, "thank you dad I really needed that." He hugs her back and after a few moments breaks the silence, "hey what do you say we go and watch your mothers match? Would that cheer you up?" She looks up, "yes, let's do it." They leave the locker room, "I hope folks enjoyed the brief break because up next is match number three!" Pan sneaks over to Videl right before the match starts, "good luck mom, you can do this!" Videl looks at Pan and smiles, "thanks Pan, I'll do my best, that's all we really can do." Videl and Barry leave head towards the ring, a paparazzi follows Barry. "I'm sorry people following Barry, I'm gonna have to ask you to leave!" They all vocally show their disappointment, "don't worry guys, I'll be back in two minutes, that's all I'll need to finish this match." The announcer facepalms, "well guys as you probably know, the guy on the left is the hit moviestar Barry!" All the ladies in the crowd cheer except a select few. "This guy seems stuck up as hell, I hope this girl can beat him" Bulma exclaims. "Wait a second, I recognize that costume, BULMA THAT"S VIDEL!" A bunch of people look back at Chi Chi with confused looks causing her to cover her mouth. "And next, a first timer to these world tournaments, she has requested to be called Saiyaman 2!" The crowd doesn't cheer very loudly as they don't recognize her. The two get in the ring but as the gong is about to get hit Barry stops them, "WAIT WAIT, give me a second to have a talk with my opponent." "Well folks, it seems Barry has requested to talk to Saiyaman 2!" He walks over to her and whispers, "Hey, there's a lot of money in it if you let me win and look good while doing it, just kidding about that second part, I always look good." Videl groans and rolls her eyes as he returns back to where he stood before, "ALRIGHT LADIES YOU READY TO SEE BARRY GO ALL THE WAY TO THE WIN?" They all explode into cheers and thunderous applause. "Aww I can't stand this guy, Videl, show him what for." Mr. Satan says to his TV. The gong sounds, "THE THIRD ROUND OF THE TOURNAMENT BEGINS… NOWWWW!" Barry turns around and eats a huge kick to the teeth causing two of them to fly right out of his mouth and sending him crashing to the ground. Everyone including the announcer winces, "ladies and gentlemen THAT has got to do more than sting." "YEAH GREAT JOB VI- GREAT SAIYAMAN 2! YOU SURE SHOWED HIM." Chi Chi yells. The announcer completes his count, "WE HAVE A WINNER!!!" Gohan and Pan hold their fists in the air and cheer in the back for Videl. She makes it back to the back, "great job Videl, it's like you never stopped fighting!" "Yeah mom! Fantastic job." She grins widely and blushes a little bit, "aww thanks you two" she says as they all embrace. Gohan's eyes then open widely as he hears some footsteps. He lets go of Pan and Videl and looks down the opposite hallway to see Android 17 walking towards them eyeing Gohan down. "Don't forget about our match Gohan, it's about to start." Gohan stares him down, "I can't tell what his intentions are, I'll have to tread carefully in our match."
