*Last time*

About an hour later, Bulma knocked on Chichi's front door and yelled '' Chichi, Gohan, both of you answer the door.'' About ten seconds later Chichi answered the door and said '' You did not not have to yell. Well anyway's hi Bulma, hi Trunks. Oh, and who's...'' but she never finished because at that moment she noticed Pan fury appendage that was now in her view and promptly fainted. That's when Gohan appeared on the scene and worriedly asked '' What happened, why is my mom unconscious?'' Oh kami, thought Gohan, It's Videl, I thought she was dead and who's that who's that little girl. She she has a TAIL. That's impossible, that means. I'M A FATHER! but the only think he could say was '' Vi... Videl!''

Chapter 1: Life and Tragedy

Four years later, Pan who is now 11 was busy practicing some kicks and punches her father had shown her the day before when Videl called her '' Pan, come inside this instant! You were supposed to help your grandmother in the kitchen today. I can't do your work for you, I have to set the table and try to wake up your father.'' '' Ah mom,'' replied Pan, '' can't I set the table and wake dad up?'' '' Pan, if you help me in the kitchen I'll show you how to make those spicy rice balls you love but I will wait a whole year to show you how to make them if you don't help me in the kitchen right now.'' intervened Chichi before either Pan or Videl could argue any more. '' Okay gamma '' said Pan hurriedly before dashing into the kitchen.

While clearing the table about an hour later, Pan asked '' Hey mom, can I come with you and gramma this afternoon when you go to Bulma's?'' ''We'll see.'' replied all three adults at the same time which caused Pan to laugh and say '' You guys must have synchronized____thinking or something because you all ____said the same thing at exactly the same time'' in between fits of laughter. The young semi-saiyan stopped laughing very suddenly and the room the went completely silent. '' I have to go, it's another android attack.'' said Gohan, '' But Gohan, your still recovering from your last battle against them. You don't have enough strength to face them again. please don't go.'' said Videl in a pleading and very distressed voice. '' Videl, I have to fight, and Pan don't even try to follow me.'' said the the warrior and before any further arguments could be made, he left, he flew off to face the androids and try to protect the people of earth.

About an hour and a half later Trunks wakes up and thinks, Arg, where am I? Oh, now I remember,Gohan knocked me unconscious so that I wouldn't be involved in the fight. Wait where is he? I can barely feel his ki. I have to find him. A few minutes later, Trunks a dying Gohan and once he reached the fallen saiyan he says frantically though he already knows that it's too late '' Gohan don't close your eyes, you have to stay awake, You can't die!'' '' Trunks,'' croaked Gohan, '' please promise me you'll take care of my family for me. Please, promise m...'' but the one armed warrior died before he could finish. '' I promise Gohan. GOHAAAAAAN!!'' Yelled the grief stricken warrior and due to the force of his emotions he transformed into a super saiyan.

A few minutes later once he had started to calm down though he was still in super saiyan mode, Pan arrived to find an enraged super saiyan Trunks and her fallen father. Dad, you can't be dead. You can't leave me and mom and gramma. You can't. thought Pan and then through her own grief stricken emotions almost reached super saiyan level, but not quite.

It took a little while for both Pan and Trunks to calm down enough for there power levels to get back under their control. Pan is now crying in Trunks arm and says '' Trunks, my dad is dead, how am I going to tell my mom and my grand mother. How could my father die like this. I've only known him for four years.'' . '' Pan, it's okay to cry. It's not any ones fault except for those god dammed androids. I promise you that we will defeat those androids. I'll defeat those androids even if it's the last thing I do.'' said Trunks. '' Trunks, promise me one thing. Promise me that will train together none stop and that you will let me destroy at least one of them myself. I may not be a super saiyan yet but I am almost one.So promise me! Promise me! '', '' I promise Pan. But I will definitely have to destroy one of them myself and now we have to go tell your mom and Chichi. Then I'll go tell my mom. Okay? '', '' Okay, Let's go.''

'' Chichi, I'm starting to get worried. I can't feel Gohan's ki anymore and Trunks power just sky rocketed. I think he went super.'' said Videl anxiously. '' Oh, can feel it to. Pan is getting closer. Oh, I hope that their alright. I have this strange feeling that something extreme has happened. I think that. No I can't think like this but we should consider it a possibility though I hate to say this. Gohan, my baby may be lost to us forever.'' said Chichi sadly while hopping that the worst had not happened.''

A few minutes later both Videl and Chichi felt Pan arrive at Trunks's position and than felt her power reach a new level though not quite super saiyan. Then Videl said '' Chichi, I'm really worried now. I want them to come home. I want them to be alright, Why can't those stupid androids just die! ''.

Both Videl and Chichi had been waiting anxiously for almost an hour after Pan's power had surged for the young demi-saiyans to arrive when they heard someone knock a the door. At once, they both rushed to the door in hopes that they would find that their loved ones were alright. Nothing in the world could have prepared them for the site before them when they opened the door only to find a grief stricken Pan followed by Trunks who was also grief stricken and was holding Gohan's bloody and lifeless body. '' Gohan. '' said Videl softly before fainting only to be caught by Pan a few seconds before Chichi shrieked '' Gohan, my baby! You can't be dead! '' and the fainted only to be caught by Pan aswell. '' Trunks, lie my da... my dad's body down and cover it with a blanket for now. Then we'll bury him with the other Z fighters when my mom and Chichi regain consciousness.'' said Pan in a strained voice while she was putting her mother and grandmother's body down on some couches. '' Already done, I'm just going to call my mom and tell her what has happened. Don't worry, I'll be right here.'' said Trunks in an attempt to comfort Pan. The young warrior then walked over to the young demi-saiyan and let her cry in his arms until she could not shed anymore tears and fell asleep in his arms.

Both Videl and Chichi regained consciousness at almost the same time and found Pan asleep on a couch. They were both pained to see that she had obviously cried herself to sleep and decided to find Trunks. '' Trunks,'' said Videl, '' where are you?'' '' I'm on the phone with my mom. She says that she'll be here in half an hour so that we can, you know.'' replied Trunks not being able to say the end of his sentence because it was to painful.
