Pairings: he he
I woke up feeling Trunks breath on my arm. We had slept for hours laying on that haystack. His head was still resting on my shoulder and I kept thinking how un-comfortable he must be. I moved him aside a bit but it was enough to wake him up.
I panicked and put him down on the ground and hid on the other side of the haystack. I still remember the last time I woke Trunks up, I'd nearly been killed.
Now I could hear him stretching. Heard his footsteps as he looked around.
"Pan?" he said very sleepily.
I honestly thought that if he found me he would come up and slap me on the head. We had that relationship.... if I ticked him off I would pay, I wasn't any different then Bra so I decided to humor him.
"Trunks.......... this is King Kai speaking"
I giggled at myself at the stupid joke I had just made when a shadow enveloped me.
"You know Pan, it's very rude to imitate the gods like that"
He smirked as he reached over and punched me on my ribs then lifted me off the ground. We always use to do that when we were younger. He used to pick me up and I'd be screaming and kicking and biting him till he got bored or Dad, Mum or Bulma came and made him put me down.
This time it was much different and I just stared down at him. He was waiting for me to do my usual act but I didn't so he put me down.
"Look Pan, I'm sorry about what happened at your grandmas... are you still mad with me?"
I didn't answer, I just wanted to hear what he had to say. Trunks didn't apologize everyday, and so I was going to savor every bit of this moment.
"Well I'm sorry" he said scratching the back of his head, "I know you panicked, I panicked to and took it all out on you, if I were your age I wouldn't have known what to do either"
He was then satisfied with his speech and grinned. I on the other hand mirrored his words so he would know how stupid they sounded.
"If you were my age, what do you mean by that?!?!?!?!?!"
I hated this control that Trunks had over me. One day he would make me feel like the Queen of the world while the next day he would make me fell like the lowest form of scum. That's the biggest and powerfulest kind of power you can have towards a person, you can use it in its good ways but you can also do horrible damage with it.
I stared at Trunks, my ki rising every second. I was so mad with him but I didn't know why. He apologized to me but I hated him even more. He had saved my life, but I still wished he hadn't. Why?
Fortunately at that moment I saw 2 dots walking, no, running towards us. Their ki was so incredibly low that I didn't know who it was until they came even closer. It was Uncle Goten and Bra.
They were screaming something but I couldn't hear it until my Uncle had enough and shouted at the top of his lungs to lower my ki.
I could see his face now. It was full of worry. He had his clothes covered in mud and had sweat all over his face.
I did as he said and lowered my ki.
Trunks got a hold of my arm and practically dragged me towards them.
What was wrong?
My uncle filled his lungs up and started explaining to us what we were going to do. I looked up at him again. He was so tired. I looked over towards Bra to see if she was the same but was surprised. She still looked like she was going to serve your grandma a cup of tea and biscuits. She looked so innocent but I knew her better.
Goten suddenly snapped me out of my daydreaming and told me to run.
"Run? But why?" I was dumbfounded.
"I'll explain it to you when we're in the forest" he quickly said and ran off.
So I ran. I ran for hours. I didn't know where, I just wanted it to end. The hours went by like clay in a sand clock but finally we arrived at a forest but we kept on running till we came at a clearing. There was two people there. I was too tired to even care until Marron rushed over towards me and gave me a hug.
I must of been pretty out of it because Bra told me later that I thought Marron was trying to kill me.
She introduced me to her boyfriend, Max when suddenly Goten interrupted us.
"This 'guy' we're up against is bloody strong" I could see that just mentioning his name he got the shakes and became all sweaty.
"One of his best abilities is to pick up ki, so we're not allowed to fly, we're not allowed to spar, we're not allowed to use ki waves..." and at that moment Uncle Goten looked at me with an evil look in his eyes and said very sternly "And we're not allowed to throw immature fits, you understand Pan?!?!?!"
I hated this new leader, this wasn't my Uncle Goten, this was some crazed mini Hitler who looked like my Uncle.
I just stood up and stared straight at Goten.
"So you want us to hide for- for-....." I thought about the end of that sentence and started again.
"You want us to hide, maybe, for the rest of our lives Goten?"
He didn't answer so I got angry and my ki raised a bit. Only a bit. I didn't care as I knew this 'guy' wasn't superman, everyone has their limits but I guess I was wrong.
As soon as I stood up and spoke my mind to Goten an earthquake suddenly hit us but we all knew that it wasn't natural. Goten shouted some quick instructions and made us run but just before we all went he said in a whisper.
"Don't raise your ki, that's the only way he can found you, he's half blind"
The news shocked me a bit but I kept on running. We all separated and went in groups of 3. There was more of a chance that some of us will survive if we separated rather than getting all wiped out at the same time. I went with Marron and Max.
Marron was crying but I kept encouraging her to go forward. I could hear trees being pushed out of the way like toothpicks behind me. I was thinking how it would feel if I died.
Would it be a quick death? Will I see the ki sphere sprinting towards me and just..... die. Or maybe it was painful, you never even see it coming.
Marron suddenly dragged me away from my ugly thoughts. She was screaming asking us to help her. Her foot was stuck in a root from a tree and her leg was twisted in an abnormal way.
Suddenly Max started screaming orders at me. He told me to save Marron while he distracted the 'monster'.
Horrible thoughts started rushing around my head. If he went and died, it would give me and Marron enough time to escape but then again I wasn't going to let him go do that.
"Look" I said "I'll take care of the piece of crap, you help Marron" and I started walking off to the direction of my death, until a hand stopped me. This Max guy was seriously getting on my nerves. He said a sexist comment like,
"This is no place for girls" and ran off.
I was infuriated, I couldn't do anything. If I chased after him, both of us will die and then after that 'the guy' would get Marron.
I then started helping Marron out of the root of the tree. She was crying. I wish she wouldn't do that, it was making me cry also.
At the end I finally got her out and she held on to my shoulder and we started making slow progress when we heard a strange sound. A weird, unearthly sound that brought all my skin into bubbles.
The sound was not screaming, not crying, more a wailing.
We turned around only too see Max kneeling on the ground with 'the guy' pressing his head in from both his ears. Max's head was getting smaller as we could hear bones cracking.
The horrible thing about this was that Max was still alive, we could hear him speaking, till suddenly this piece of venom grabbed Max's head for the last time and twisted it. All the way round. We couldn't see Max's head anymore and I thanked Dende for it.
The black haired monster wiped his hands on his coat and Marron started hiccupping.
I suddenly thought to hell with my Uncles rules and picked up Marron and flew off. After 5 minutes of flying I looked back and sighed when suddenly I nearly swallowed my tongue.
There he was in front of me laughing.
"Not fast enough Pan" he said mockingly.
Marron who I had swung over my shoulder suddenly started yelling.
"TURN AROUND PAN" she screamed.
I was miffed. There wasn't much we could do so I turned around and saw Marron's facials.
It was amazing how someone so pretty could look so ugly. She whispered that in the count of 3 to fly like hell and I started to laugh.
Great! I was going to die and I've got some loony human slung over my shoulder thinking she can defeat the strongest guy I've ever met in my whole life.
"1.......2...........3......"
I broke out into giggles then.
"SOLAR FLARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Marron screamed
"What the hell?!?!"
"FLY PAN DAMMIT, FLY"
Marron had totally lost it but I flied anyway. After a few hours of flying around we went back in to the forest.
"Wow!!!" I was so happy, Marron would be the last person I'd ever rely on to fight and save my life but she did it anyway.
"Where did you learn that technique, that was great!!!!!!!" I was practically yelling.
Marron blushed "My Dad taught me, you know.... just incase"
I was smiling. I honestly thought I was going to die tonight but Marron still looked so sad.
"Why are you looking so sad?" I asked.
"I don't think you would understand pan" she replied.
My mood immediately changed. I wouldn't understand? Oh Dende I'm not that immature am I?
Why did everyone treat like some kind of little kid who has no helpful ideas, is annoying, not mature to talk to about anything?
I stormed off. I had to talk to Bra. She was the only one that wouldn't treat me like a little kid. I tried to look for some sign of ki and could just pick one about a kilometer in front of me. I walked there taking my time.
How dare she? What can't I understand?
Stupidity?
Sooner than I realized I'd already reached my destination and came upon a strange sight.
Bra and Goten were sparring. Goten was doing some light kicks and Bra was blocking them. They were staring at each other smirking. Unky Goten then leaned over to kiss Bra.
"Should I block that?" Bra said mockingly.
I had enough and coughed lightly.
Goten stared at me disbelievingly and his mouth opened a little.
Bra blushed furiously.
"Hey Pan!, Goten is um, he he, training me" Bra said whispering. She avoided my eyes but I didn't really care.
"Where's Trunks?" I asked.
"He's looking for you" Bra replied.
Goten and Bra snapped out of their 'how embarrasing' phases and started asking me what happened.
I explained about Marron's technique and they both looked wide eyed at me. They told me how they had seen the guy fly away after that rush of light.
After listening to their babble for 1/2 an hour I had enough of them and walked away.
I was angry at both Trunks and Marron and I sure didn't want to go apologize so I just sat down and leaned against a tree and searched in my pockets.
I panicked...... where was my fathers note?!?!?!
I needed some reassurance that he and my mum was still alive. I looked up at the sky, I needed someone right now to hug me like my father used to do. Tell you everything was alright.
I cried until I was tearless that night.
I'd given up on everything.
Mum.
Dad.
Goten.
Bra.
Marron.
Friends.
Life.
Trunks...........
As soon as I thought that, soon as I even thought about this man who had been the greatest influence of my life I didn't get the usual feelings of measuring up to him. Didn't get a feeling that I had to prove something to him, I finally felt like we were equal. I didn't care what he thought about me anymore.
At that instant my blood turned to hot lava. My scalp burned. I felt my face, it felt like it was melting.
I was dying. I couldn't die, not yet anyway. Not yet.........
There was something in my stomach, I realized then, something that wanted to come out, it was a scream.
I let the scream out, let myself engulf in the harshness of my voice when my face and neck couldn't handle it anymore and they exploded and I fell down and crashed my head on the tree.
The pain had gone.
Where was I?
I lifted my hand up and it was white. Deadly white.
I could be dead or.. or...
I'd seen Goten, Dad, Vegeta, Grandpa and Trunks turn white like this when they turned........
I started laughing nervously, looked up to the heavens and screamed,
"I TOLD YOU I COULD DO IT GRANDPA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
I did a little jump and went to show everybody.
I wonder how they would like me as a blonde.............
