Chapter 4 ~ Vegeta attacks ~

~ Tayla ~

"W-what? Princess, there is no way that you will be fighting in this war..." Lady Marron
said to Pan

Pan glared at Marron," There is no way you can stop me. You will obey my orders and
get my armor."

"B-but."

"Now!"

Marron quickly got to her senses and followed out her orders going to the armor chamber
and pulling out Pan Son's armor which held the great Sons' sign itself. Before she left the
armored chamber she heard somebody familiar coming down the hall.

"Goku you can't go out there! I'm telling you, you're going to get hurt!" Chichi said trying
to persuade her husband from going out to battle.

"There's no possible way you can change my mind now, dear. I have to protect this
kingdom." Goku told her.

Marron managed to slip out of the armor room in time so that formal Queen Chichi and
formal King Goku could not see her. She then hid behind the corner wall and listened.

Chichi looked concerned as ever. She had almost lost him before and she wasn't going
to lose him again." Well, if you're going out there you have to promise me that you will come
back alive!"

Goku finished putting on his armor and turned to Chichi," Don't worry Chichi, I will come
back to you."

The both of them shared a passionate kiss which made Marron squeal seeing how
romantic it was. Goku and Chichi looked over in the direction she was hiding. Finding out that
she was noticed Marron hurried back to where Pan sat.

Marron entered the room Pan was in and helped her dress in her armor. After she was
done Pan headed up to one of her training rooms to get her weapons. Marron was following her
all along and looked so worried.

"If the king and queen find out that I let you go out there, they're going to kill me for sure.
Just remember to stay alive."

"Yes of course Marron." Pan had got all of weapons that she wanted from the room and
she was ready.

"Sayonara Marron." Pan walked to the main door and headed out to her army. She
crossed the gate. Her horse already await her there. Her horse was a beautiful brunette with a
blazing black tail. She had a white spot on her forehead and on her right foot.

"Come on Hana. Let's go!" Pan loved talking to her horse. She seemed so close to her...
Hana was mounted and the saiya-jin rode her toward the almost ready army.

Goten rode up to her not knowing that it was Pan because her helmet covered her face.
"You! What are you doing back here!?

"Is that a way to speak to the princess?" Pan lifted her flap up to reveal that she was a
girl and the princess.

"Pan, what the hell are you doing out her!" He didn't see the Sons' marking on her armor
which made him think that she was an ordinary soldier.

" I'm going to fight. What do you think?"

Pan rode her horse up to the front line and then motioned Goten to hurry up.

"Gohan's going to kill me for sure..." Goten pulled his flap down and headed toward Pan,
in the front-line.

"Okay, is everyone ready!?" Pan shouted. She held up her sword, but before she rode off
she pushed her flap down.

"Charge!" Goten shouted.

By now everyone could see the enemy's army on their horses riding across the
grasslands. After awhile of riding the two kingdoms met. Pan brought down many easily and so
did Goten. They were both top classed soldiers and had the best experience. All around you can
only see heads flying off and body parts on the ground. The battle kept raging on and on...

Pan had already defeated many men and turned in another direction to find some more.
What she saw almost made her faint. Just a few feet in front of her was her ojiisan and another
soldier fighting, but her poor grandpa was losing. "What?", Pan thought, my ojiisan isn't suppose
to be fighting and and he's hurt really bad." That made her charge forward. She didn't think about
anything else but to save her grandfather.

"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" Pan screamed.

She took her ojiisan's place and started fighting the person who had almost killed Goku.

"You-can't-kill my ojiisan!" Pan's voice sounded more like a mad woman setting revenge.

The warrior stopped and Pan knocked his weapon out of his hand. The warrior had
realized that he was fighting a girl.

"Your a girl..."

Pan froze. She wasn't suppose to show that she was a girl for they might take her
captive or consider as a weakling.

"He must have heard my voice and thought that I was a girl... Dammit!", Pan thought.

By now most of the soldiers had retreated because King Vegeta had ordered them to,
but the warrior facing Pan did not hear. He lifted up his flap and looked at her.

Pan looked into the warrior's eyes and his odd purple hair. She didn't say anything for
awhile and neither did the boy. Breaking the silence, Pan lifted up her flap to show her beautiful
women face.

The man froze at the girl's brilliant face. He did not know how a pretty girl like that could
have so much experience as a soldier. He then shifted his eyes to her armor. "She must be the
princess for her armor is different from all of the other men on the battlefield", the purple-haired
boy thought.

Pan shifted in her saddle and decided to speak," Who are you and why have you
attacked my kingdom?"

The boy looked up at her and had his eyes fixed on her own," I am Prince Trunks, prince
of Enubia, we have come here to... destroy this place." Prince Trunks did not want to say that.
The only reason he was here was because he was following the orders of his father.

"Who is your father and is there anybody else who were involved in plotting this plan?"

"My father is King Vegeta... I do not believe that these people were involved, but my
mother is Queen Bulma and my little sister is Princess Bra."

By now Goten had rode up to the two only warriors in the field. Trunks and Pan stared at
him as he lifted his flap up. Before Goten could ask any questions Pan told him all the
information Trunks had told her.

"Who are the King and Queen of this land and who is in charge?" asked Trunks.

Pan was not suppose to give out information like that but she blurted it out anyways,"
King Gohan and Queen Videl, my mother and father, have control over Tayla, but they are gone.
I have the authority over it for the time being."

Goten hit the princess over the head for saying that. He whispered in her hear," What the
hell are you doing, Pan? This is the enemy you're not suppose to give out such information like
that."

"Sorry, uncle Goten....." Pan said feeling guilty for herself.

Goten cleared his throat," I am Prince Goten, second in charge of this land. And I say if
you don't get going I will have to kill you."

Trunks immediately said his good-byes and rode off in the direction his father had
headed toward his own kingdom, Enubia.

The sun was getting low on the land and Pan and Goten finally made their way back to
their castle.

"How many men were lost." Pan asked Goten.

"Quit a lot... I'm sure we can make up for that but other than that lots of soldiers are
injured as well. We must hurry back to see that they come through.

Pan agreed and followed him back not knowing who the injured were just hoping that one
of them wasn't her grandfather.
