RATING: PG-13
NOTE: This is set in an alternate universe. Please do not read it if you do not like A/U's. This is about T/P with a bit of G/M.
DISCLAIMER: I do not own Dragonball Z and am in no way connected to them. I only wish I was, than I'd have at least SOME $$$. Seeing as how I am broke, sueing me would do you no good. =Þ
Last time on Lost In Love:
Vegeta and Goku, they were hard to kill. Both were very powerful warriors. Still, he had managed to kill them. These other Saiyans shouldn't be too bad. Afterall, they were just kids, too young to be truly powerful. They would simply be easy game for him.
He smiled. Whatever happened, it would all begin tonight.

Trunks lay in bed, unable to sleep. His mind just wouldn't leave Pan. How could anyone sleep with such a beauty wandering around in their head? He certainly couldn't. He could still feel her lips on his and the feel of her body pressed lightly against his. He could still hear her voice and see her face. Never had he felt anything so strong or unbelievable before. Goten on the other hand, appeared to be deep in sleep. He chuckled to himself. Nothing could prevent his friend from sleeping.
However, unknown to Trunks, Goten was not asleep. He was still shook from the knowledge of what those men would have done to his Marron if he hadn't been there. He hated what the world was like, where men would force themselves on woman just so they could have a few minutes of pleasure. It made him sick to his stomach.

Pan looked over towards her friend, lying peacefully in sleep. She sure looked exhausted. Silently, Pan wondered what Goten and her had been up to (don't get sick thoughts here people, she wasn't thinking like that). Trunks face fluttered to the front of her mind and she shivered unintentionally. Even just the thought of him could make her lose all control of her mind.

A few hours later...
A buplig flew as silently up to the boys room and peeked inside. There was one boy, where was the other?
"Hey! You! What are you doing there?"
The buplig looked up and was met with Goten's fiery eyes. It quickly began to scramble away, trying to put as much distance as it could between itself and Goten.
Huh, that thing has no ki. Goten almost shuddered at the thought. Maybe it was just him.
"Come back here, I need to talk to you."
Trunks sat up in the room. Who was Goten talking to? He quickly scrambled out of bed, curious as to who it was. Still in his pajamas, he flung the door open.
"Goten, who are you talking to?" He got no reply as Goten took off after someone...or something. Trunks stood rooted to the spot. He saw it, yet he felt no ki. Just like earlier in the forest. What WAS it?
Pan flung open her door just in time to see Trunks take off after Goten, their voices waking her up from her sleep. Marron rubbed her eyes sleepily.
"What's going on?"
"Huh? Oh, nothing. Go back to bed, I'll be right back."
Without waiting for a response, she took to the air as well, following Trunks ki since he was already out of sight. She sensed his ki stop in the middle of the forest. Gliding towards him and Goten, she touched down beside them. Both of them seemed tense and alert.
"What's going on guys?"
Trunks put a hand to his lips and motioned for her to keep her guard up. She immediately realized that they were in some sort of danger. The three friends moved closer together, forming a tight circle facing outwards. Their eyes darted back and forth searching for any movement while their ears twitched trying to pick up some kind of sound. None. No ki, no movement, no sound.
Pan felt a cold chill run through her as she remembered the thing in the forest which had lacked a ki. Could it be the same thing? Is that why the boys were out in the middle of the forest? She regretted losing her goddess powers at a time like this. They could pick up anything, dead or alive. Losing her immortality status wasn't great either. Still, she figured it was worth it, even if she only got to spend an extra second more with Trunks.
Trunks saw a sudden flash in front of his eyes and slowly began to power up. Whatever it was, there was no use taking chances. Suddenly, he felt someone grab at his leg. Startled, he looked down, eyes popping wide open at the sight. There was a hideous creature with a tight hold on his foot. Kicking furiously, he leviated immediately at almost the same instant that Pan and Goten took to the air as well.
Tiger King watched from afar, amusement written all over his face. The girl was indeed very pretty. His scouts weren't as blind as he had thought they were. She seemed feisty too. Good, he liked that in a girl. He would make her his queen for sure now. All he had to do was wait. Wait for the proper time.
Trunks blinked once and immediately the creatures on the ground disappeared. "What the..."
He never finished his question as three creatures seemingly appeared out of nowhere in front of his face. Striking out, he connected with one creature while withdrawing his hand quick enough to block the other creature. He took a quick peek towards Pan and Goten to make sure they were alright.
He was startled to find that Pan was a very good fighter, probably as good as he was. He smiled realizing he didn't have to worry about her. Goten seemed to be doing fine as well. He was so busy watching his friend and the girl of his dreams that he didn't see the fist that came his way until it connected with his jaw. Recovering quickly, Trunks began to assult the hideous monsters with everything that he had.
How many were there? He wasn't sure. There was no way of knowing. These creatures had no ki so he couldn't detect their numbers. He still couldn't understand it. Were they dead? Were they monsters? That was the only possible answer. Everyone and everything had a ki. This was just too weird.
Goten faught distractedly, not really paying any attention to his attackers. His mind was on Marron. Was she alright? Would she be alright? What if this was a ploy to draw them away while someone took off with his Marron? At that thought, anger coursed through his body. No one was allowed to hurt her! Whoever did would have to answer to his wrath. Using his anger as fuel, Goten began knocking the creatures aside effortlessly.
By now, there tight circle was completely broken up and each warrior was fighting far from the others.
Pan knocked two creatures to the ground. There seemed to be an endless supply of these things. She could still feel it's hands on her legs. Ugh, slimy and icky. She hated the feeling. She just wanted to jump in a shower and wash the feelings off her leg. She dodged a punch as she elbowed the creature to the ground.
Was there a way of killing these things? How could you kill something that was already dead? She shook the question from her mind and concentrated on the fight. Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw a yellowish flash. Turning quickly, her voice stuck in her throat. Finally, she managed a warning shout.
"Trunks! Watch out!"
