Sorry, Vegita fans, Veggie's not gonna be in this chapter much... sorry! But if you don't like the V/B pairing, then you may still like this chapter.... ^_~


Chapter 3- Pan's Plan

Pan flew back to the Capsule Corp. building.
"Hey, Pan, you're back!" called Bra. She was holding Pan's cat in her arms.
"Hi, Bra! Hi, Sno!" said Pan cheerily. She took Sno out of Bra's arms.
"Where's Dad?" asked Bra.
Pan pretended to look confused. "I don't know. He just flew off after I summoned Shenlong. I thought he came here?" she lied.
Bulma stepped in from the next room. "No, he's not back yet," she said.
"Hm. I'm sure he'll be back soon," said Pan, faking confidence. *Yeah, like in a year* she thought angrily. The anger was at herself.
Bulma looked worried.

That night, Pan snuck into the kitchen and placed a note on the table.

Bulma stretched. She got up and went downstairs to make breakfast. Then she noticed the note on the table.

"Bulma-
I've gone to train the
wilderness. I won't be
back for at least a
year.
-Vegita"

Bulma crumpled the note in her hand. "That jerk! How dare he go off and train like this! 'Won't be back for at least a year.' Hmph! If he thinks I'm going to wait around for him for an entire year, then he's wrong. I'll give him one week," said Bulma.

A week later, Vegita still had not come back. Bulma picked up the phone and dialed a number that she still knew by heart, even though she hadn't used it in years.
"Hello? Yamcha?" she said.

To Be Continued...

*Ahem* Does.... anyone see were I'm going with this?
