Heeeeeeelllllllllllooooooooooooo everyone! It's me Katie. HAPPY MOOD, HAPPY MOOD!!!!!! I am in a great mood! I don't feel like writing anything depressing right now so I WON'T! TRUST ME PEOPLE I DON'T WANT TO GET IN ANOTHER DEPRESSED MOOD AND ESPECIALLY RIGHT BEFORE MY CONCERT!!!!!!!! Anyways this is the sequel to A Dead Seed Sprouts so please read that first or you won't understand a single thing in this story. Well actually read the whole series before you read this story starting with Growing a Dieing Rose, then Planting a Dead Rose, then A Dead Seed Sprouts, and then you can read this one. Thank-you to everyone whom has e-mailed me or reviewed my story. I am thankful no one has yet to flame me. THANKS!!!!!!
Oh ya. I forgot to mention for all of you whom have asked me whether this is an alternate universe fic the answer is yes and no. I'm not quite sure what it is. It takes place after Dragonball GT. Goku is gone but the dragonballs are there. They came back (remember in the GT tv special young Goku had a dragonball) some time within the four years after Goku absorbed them.
Okay the disclaimer is usual I don't own Dragonball (I can only wish…) so don't sue.
Please read and review.
And so the Rose Lives
By Katie
The seed will begin to sprout
Trunks slowly tucked the letter into the package and pushed the package underneath his bed.
'No one needs to know.' He thought solemnly as he pushed himself back onto the bed and leaned back. "No one needs to know."
And after the seed sprouts it will grow
The next few weeks were the slowest and most painful weeks for Trunks. He found that if there wasn't something at work for him to do there was always something to do at home. All he wanted to do as sit down on the couch and plan things to do when Pan came back.
He had hidden the fact Pan was coming back from everyone. Even from his sister, Bra whom was Pan's best friend, he kept it secret.
But sometimes, because of how busy he was kept, he believed that Dende must have told everyone. So he figured they were keeping him busy because they didn't want him to get worried incase it didn't work.
But he knew deep down inside that his little guess on why he was so busy was wrong. It was summer and that was the top time for the business.
But somehow even though he knew he had to get everything done he found himself day dreaming about something. Usually it was good memories about Pan, sometimes he day dreamed about their wedding, sometimes he day dreamed about the day Pan would come back.
FLASHBACK
"Oh come on Trunks, please." The 14-year-old Pan begged following Trunks from the bedroom of the large ship.
"No Pan," Trunks sighed.
"Please." Pan gave him a sad puppy look with her puppy dog style blue eyes. She made her eyes water and curled her lower lip out and down.
Trunks turned his head away sharply and tried to ignore the pleading gaze coming from Pan.
"Pan no."
Pan gave a puppy dog style sad whimper.
Trunks sighed and slowly tilted his head towards him keeping his face away and one eye shut tightly but turning his one eye to look at her. He sighed and gave in.
"Fine but if you crash into anything…" he began.
"You'll pulverize my little head. I know." Trunks sighed.
"Okay that is the ignition, that's the steering wheel…" Trunks instructed.
"Trunks," Pan complained sharply. "I know how to drive the ship, you've showed me a million times already."
Trunks sighed.
"I guess your right."
Pan giggled and took the controls.
"Hmm…lets see…Gill where is the next dragonball at?" Pan asked gingerly.
"Where it is is unknown. Must be closer." Gill answered sharply.
A wicked grin crossed Pan's face.
"Well I guess I'll just have to search for it then." Pan gave the controls a sharp twist to the right and the ship went in that direction.
"PAN!!!!" Trunks yelled as he pulled himself out of the dented wall of the ship where he had landed.
"Oops." Pan said and laughed.
Trunks sighed.
"This is going to be a long trip…"
END OF FLASHBACK
Trunks awoke the morning before the dragonballs were supposed to be unstoned. His heart raced as he reached under the bed to get the stone dragonballs.
Where were they? He couldn't find them. Trunks eagerly pushed his hand around and around until final a rough piece of brown paper scraped against his hand. Trunks sighed and grasped the paper, pulling the package filled with the stone dragonballs with it. Trunks took a deep breath in and blew upon them. A light layer of dust had collected over them within the last month of resting where they were.
He slowly pushed his hand beneath the package and pulled it up to his place on the bed. He slowly pulled the protective over rapping from the dragonballs. He smiled as he pulled the last bit from them. He glared down but to his surprise…
With a little help it can grow faster
The dragonballs were gone. In there place were seven perfectly ordinary, oval shaped rocks. He pulled them from the package and searched every corner. They were nowhere to be found.
"There gone Trunks." A voice said behind him.
Trunks turned sharply towards the door to see his sister, Bra, standing in the doorway leaning her head and back against the doorframe.
"Where are they Bra, I was going to wish…" Trunks said angrily.
"Pan back with them?" Bra continued for him.
"Ya." He spat. "Now why don't you give them back?"
"Sorry no can do big bro. They're gone scattered around the world."
"Why?"
"Well you see Trunks the night you awoke with a start to find the package at your bed side I couldn't sleep so I went downstairs to get some water. But when I passed your door (you know you really should keep it closed at night) I noticed you pulling the stone dragonballs from the package. So that morning I took the Dragonballs and replaced them with stones. I watched them everyday until last night when they went back to being the dragonballs. So I made a wish last night when you were asleep…"
"For what?" he spat.
"For me to come back." Another voice said walking over beside Bra.
"I'll leave you two alone." Bra smiled at the look of bewilderment on her brother's face. "Remember its only 3:30 am."
Bra laughed lightly and walked off.
Trunks glared in bewilderment at the figure.
"Pan?" he asked quizzically.
A smiled crossed the girl's lips as she walked forwards.
"Yes?"
"I never answered your question why I was there at your death." Trunks smiled and patted the spot beside him on the bed. Pan slinked over and sat beside him.
"So what's your answer?" she asked smiling.
"I love you."
And so the rose lives
