Summary: Pan realizes how bad her situation is and the person who is suppose to help her makes it worse.


I flew over my town. It was MY town. That's what I thought anyway. No-one could ever hurt it since my family defended it all my life. Satan City. That's named after my Grandpa on my Moms side. He is a fighter like everyone else in my family but he fit very conveniently into my fathers plan. When my father was a teenager he defeated a guy named Cell. It was ages ago but my grandpa got all the praise. I know that people will think it's lies, once a story is told and people celebrate it, and make the day the event happened a holiday on the calendar and then the person becomes a hero it's very hard to stand in the middle of it all and yell out,
'IT'S A LIE!!!!!'
especially if you are that persons granddaughter. I looked down again at the bomb stricken houses, I didn't know if they were bombs or not, maybe a nuclear bomb. That didn't explain my fathers note though. I silently started to take the shriveled piece of paper out of my pocket.
'Don't try to be a hero Pan' I could see my fathers face full of worry. He knew me so well.
I looked back down and already knew that I should see under me a big white building but I didn't. I just saw little pieces of it everywhere. My mind started screaming, a loud high pitched scream but I didn't let it travel to my mouth, I kept it inside of me like I always did. As I flew down to the pieces of white tiles down below I saw a body lying there. It was the very old Mrs. Briefs, Bulma's mother.
I didn't look at her, I couldn't. I just started picking up loose pieces of white tiles looking for something, anything, but then my mind stopped.
What would happen if I found another dead body like Bulma or Vegeta or Bra or.... Trunks?
The scream inside my head couldn't contain itself anymore and I screamed.
I remember kneeling down with little pieces of white tiles digging into my knees, but I didn't care.
Why did this happen to me?
Where was my Dad and Mum?
What had happened?
Why?
And where was the person that was suppose to help me through all of this, where was Trunks?
I flew off, I only had one more person I could ask, I knew that all the houses in town would be demolished, but not my Grandmas, hers was up in the mountains, if this was some random bombing spree they wouldn't fire bombs in the middle of the forest, would they?
They.
I didn't know who they were, who I was up against, I was stuck in the middle of nowhere, but my Grandma would know. I flew on and on, I was getting closer but suddenly something caught my eye.
On a mountain which was usually filled with trees and animals and wildlife there was nothing. A huge dusty circle surrounded by trees stared back at me.
My grandmas house was in that circle. It was right in the middle. This little brown dot covered in clay and mud and branches. She was still alive, I could sense her ki, but it was dying.
I slammed through the door and found her lying there. Her face was too white, she nearly looked like Mrs. Briefs lying there except there was the noise of her breathing. I could see that they had really hurten her.
I stood beside her and kneeled down as she opened one eye.
"Pan-chan....?" she asked, it was so hard for her to speak. I felt incredibly weak then, every time my Grandma spoke it hurt her. She couldn't explain to me what happened, I had to find it from someone else.
"Aliens, Pan-chan, aliens I..." Grandma said. I shushed her up and went looking for senzu beans, maybe she will get better and she'll tell me everything.
"Pan-chan..... I..... have..... to..... tell.... you.... somethin-" Grandma spewed up allot of blood then. My grandma was a very strong person. Invisible knifes went through me seeing her this way. I walked out of the room looking for senzu beans.
"PAN-CHAN" she half screamed "You listen to me!"
I looked in her destroyed bedroom and went to the closet. There was all my Grandmas clothes, all dull blacks and pinks and browns. I hated my Grandmas clothing it made her seem so....boring, when deep inside her lived a person that I would always admire my whole life. At the back of the closet I saw a bright orange piece of clothing. I knew it was my Granddads. Even though I was in a rush I hugged my grandpas gi hopefully wishing that I would get a hug back. I missed my grandpa so much, why did he have to leave us again? Suddenly I was angry at him and let go but not before I felt something hard on the side of the gi.
Senzu beans!
They were pretty old but I still got one out and rushed over to my Grandma. I popped one in her mouth and waited. She was very still. Too still. Oh Dende this could not be happening. I yelled at her to eat the senzu bean, I held her hand and I squeezed it but I didn't get a squeeze in return, I encouraged her, told her she would make it but hid myself from the truth. I picked her up and was determined to get her to a hospital when the senzu bean dropped out of her mouth. I put my Grandma down. I just stared. Who wanted to do this to me? Why?
Suddenly a person came through the door. I couldn't make out who it was, I was happy because I knew they would kill me. Good I thought, but that person didn't come and kill me that person came up and hugged me.
"Pan where were you?"
"Trunks?" was all I could blurt out.
"We've been worried sick" said Trunks. He hugged me tighter. I thought he smelt bad. Sweat. He must of been really worried. It made me feel special that he would worry that much about me but I would rather he do that when he had clean clothes. As if he could read my mind he let go and went over to grandma and leaned down beside her. He shook grandma a bit and then when she didn't respond he looked up at me.
"What happened?"
His voice was very cold, even for him.
"They got her Trunks, I gave her a senzu bean, look there it is, she was...., oh god why are you looking at me that way, I couldn't have done anything, I gave her a senzu bean, don't make it harder than it ALLREADY IS!!!!!!!" I was very angry at him at that moment.
There was a long silence. I was scared, he wasn't acting normally.
"Trunks?" I half whispered.
He turned around this deadly look on his face. I was so scared.
"Trunks I..."
"BAKA, you could of given her some of your power, are you so stupid?"
I didn't know what to feel. Trunks wasn't THAT close to grandma and he was acting like he'd just lost his mother but the more that I thought about it the more that I realized that Trunks was very close to my grandma. I looked at Trunks. He was shivering. I was still mad at him. How dare he talk to me like that? I'm no fool. I was closer to my grandma than he would ever be. EVER. I was upset. She was my grandma. So the best I could I blurted out,
"She was my grandma Trunks"
"She WAS?!?! Shows how much you know, she IS" he said sending a quick ki blast in the direction of grandma.
He had given her energy. His own energy. I did feel stupid then and I ran out of the demolished house and flew off. I was so stupid. Now once again I had proved to Trunks that I couldn't handle things, he saved the day once again. Why couldn't I do that? I had been treated as a child my whole life and even know when I was nearly an adult people still treated me that way.
While I was thinking this I didn't realize this blast coming towards me until the last second and I supposedly blacked out.
