"Grandpa?!" I keep my power focused on the blast but my eyes were glued on Grandpa. He smiled and put his hand on my head, turning it so I was looking at the fight once more.
Dad sensed a disturbance in my ki and peeked over at me. When he saw Grandpa Goku, I thought he may fall over but Grandpa just smiled to him and Dad smiled and turned back to the battle a little stronger and standing a little taller. I felt Grandpas hand tighten on my shoulder and I wanted to cry out and jump into his arms but I knew I had a job to do. Now with Grandpa here to help, my confidence was beginning to pick up.
"Pan-chan. We need more power. I know you have it so don't be afraid and don't hold back. We need all of power to win!" His voice was firm.
I nodded absently and reached as deep into my soul for my power as was possible and was surprised to find that I did have more power down there, I just could not quite reach it.
"PAN! You have to remember who this man is! He's trying to kill everyone and destroy the earth. You can't let him do that. I know the power is in you. You've already gone super sayajin once. I know you can do it again!"
"OKAY!" I could feel that rage begin to rise up in my chest again. Memories came flowing back to me of my father and my friends being knocked to the ground one by one and beat into the ground over and over again. The more I remembered, the more power I could feel at my fingertips.
"PAN! He is trying to kill you and he almost killed Trunks! How much more will you let him destroy?!"
That was it! My ki flared along with my rage as I remembered the look on Trunks face as he collasped onto the ground after saving my life. I felt that same heat well up in my body and before I knew it, the yellow light surrounded me and I was once more a super sayajin.
"Everyone. We need one more good blast to destroy Brolly! Lets do this!" Dad flashed me and Grandpa Goku a smile.
The grip on my shoulder lossened and I heard my grandfather voice behind us. "KA-ME-HA-ME-HAAAAAAAAAAA"
I saw Uncle Goten stagger over to my side looking extremely beat up and flash a grin to Grandpa before turning and offering his best blast as well. "KA-ME-HA-ME-HA!"
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" The blasts from Krillins', Dads' and my hands brightened with new energy and life!
I felt Brolly attack begin to give a little and hope began to spring up in my chest again.
"FINAL FLASH!" I heard Vegetas voice off to the side and saw his blast heading straight at Brolly.
"HAAAAA""AHHHHHHHHHHH""AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" I turned my head to the left, to see blasts coming from 18, Tien and Yamcha too.
With blasts flying at Brolly from all directions, he had no hope. He may be able to take us all out but not all at the same time. I heard a primal scream come from the bright light in the middle of the blasts, then the explosion that erupted was enough to send us all flying in different directions and knocking us out of our Sayajin states.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I pulled myself to my feet and dusted myself off. Surprising to myself, I only had a few cuts and brusies. That, of course, was thanks to all my friends for saving my rear several times. I looked around for Grandpa. "Grandpa? GRANDPA?!" I looked around frantically. It had been so many years since I had seen him and I really wanted to speak to him again. After a few minutes of looking I realized the truth and it hit me hard. I collasped to my knees and cried. Grandpa wasn't back. Had he really been there at all? Had he really come to help?
I did not even hear Dad walk up behind me but when I felt his hand on my shoulder I remained where I was. "It was real Pan. He just could'nt stay but he did come to help. Never forget that, okay?"
I jumped to my feet and threw my arms around my father. "Dad! I miss him!" I cried my eyes out till I had no more tears to cry and I could swear I felt my Dads tears on my shoulder as well. He scooped me up like a baby and carried me home. Normally I would have told my dad that I was a grown woman and a college graduate AND a super sayajin, so I did not need to be babied but right now, laying in Dads arm felt like the safest place to be.

When we arrived back at Capsule Corp, Mom was outside to meet us and after several minutes of hugs and kisses, I had to get away from the group. I made my way out of the room and down the hall. Before I knew where I was going, I found myself standing in front of Trunks bedroom door.
I stood there several minutes before I pushed the door open slowly to find Trunks sleeping silently in his bed. I stepped into the room as quiet as possible and closed the door behind me. I approuched the bed slowly just watching him sleep as peacefully as ever. I had just been in the fight of my life and all I wanted to do was sleep and pretend like none of it had even happened, at least until tomorrow. Tonight I just needed to forget.
I saw Trunks eyes flutter open a bit and a slight sleepy smile played on his lips. He held his hand out to me silently and I took it. He pulled me onto the bed and I lay down next to him. He wrapped his arms around me protectively and murmured something I could not quite understand. I curled up to him as much as humanly possible and closed my eyes. I had no clue what Trunks was thinking or what he would say when he woke up in the morning to find me in his bed but at least for tonight I would sleep well and feel safe and that was what I really need right now anyway.
