[During The Three Years In The Past]
Everyday for a year, Gohan and Videl would go outside and stare to the skies for hours. They waited each day for her to come back, but the days kept coming and going, and Pan did not come back. The days turned to weeks, the weeks turned to months, and the months turned to years. Gohan had become depressed, and spent most of his time at home with Videl, just thinking to himself. He would never leave Videl's side for anything, as he was afraid of losing her too. A year had passed and she was not back.
Trunks and Marron's first wedding anniversary should have been a joyous occasion, but it was not for Gohan or Videl. It was the day that Pan had left, they day their world fell apart. He remembered the note she left well, as he kept it in a safe to protect it. He would read it from time to time, for it was the last thing she said to him. Pan had written that she would come back as soon as possible, but the way she wrote it showed she would not. She had said months or years. It now appeared to be years.
Another year passed slowly, and while Gohan could never give up the hope of finding Pan, he knew that life had to go on. He began getting out of the house more and attending parties and get-togethers that Bulma threw often. Before long, it was time for Trunks and Marron's anniversary. Gohan decided to try and have a good time, and he did. He loved Pan and hoped she would come back soon, but until then, he was going to continue with his life. It was here that he found out the news about his brother. Goten and Bra had seemed to dismiss the age difference, and they were now getting married. On top of that, Bra was pregnant with Goten's baby.
The wedding was held soon, and seven months after that, they had their first child who they named Joken. Joken was the first boy with a tail to be born in almost 40 years. Within two months, Trunks announced to his parents that he was going to be a dad. Another nine months passed, and the baby was born. The baby was named Juulie, after Marron's mother. The birth of Juulie brought back to Gohan memories of Pan, who will have been gone 3 years next Friday, in which Trunks and Marron's anniversary party was to take place. A week later, the party began, but was quickly interrupted by an explosion outside, and what appeared to be Pan's ki.
[The Present Past]
Pan rolled over slowly and was surprised to find Mirai not there. Ever since they had been together that first night, Pan had always awoken to his arms. He would hold tight and not let her leave without a struggle. He had lost so much and seen so many die, that he couldn't bear the thought of losing Pan. His dreams were still often filled with nightmares of what had happened, and it was only with Pan that he felt secure. Her presence made him know that she was safe, and everything was all right. Pan could remember the first time they were together.
[Begin Flashback]
It had been another restless night for Trunks, who had always had restless nights. He would bury the pain and despair of his past during the day, but it would always come out at night. He would often fall asleep in tears, unable to handle all the emotions. His life had been in shambles until recently. After defeating #17, #18, and Cell, he had nothing left to do but just mope around his home. His friends were gone and he only had his mother left. Even she was bored, since her materials were scare and she was unable to invent much. Then it all changed the day Pan arrived.
Pan had given him a mission, a reason to go on and fight. She had brought him out of the pits of despair and into the warmth of friendship. He was grateful for her coming to his world, for it had given his life purpose. It was not just his mission to find the Dragonballs either. He had fallen in love with her, and she made him feel good about his life. After his friends started coming back, Trunks became overjoyed and was no longer in despair. Except at night in his dreams. His dreams of pain, hate, and destruction were always there. His childhood had been ripped from him and smashed into a bloody pulp.
Pan was also falling for Trunks. Not only did he look like the Trunks of her time, but also he was younger and nicer. He treated her like she was so fragile that any wrong move could break her. He was gentle and shy while her own Trunks was often rough and outspoken. She liked Mirai Trunks better than her own Trunks. Trunks of her time always treated her like a kid, while Mirai Trunks was a kid at heart. She could see in his eyes that while he grew up physically, he was still like an innocent child, never learning how to properly interact with others. She could see his lust for her, but there was more than that.
It was almost is if Mirai Trunks needed her. He wanted someone to love and to love him back. Someone who he could care for, provide for, live for. Someone who could replace all the pain he felt in his life just with her presence. Someone who could keep the dreams away at night and make him happy forever. She knew that he wanted her very badly, almost a need rather than a want. But Mirai had no idea how to proceed, for he never learned what to do. Pan decided to take the first step. Walked up to him, seeing the uncomfortable look of his body in this situation. She kissed him deeply, and felt all the uneasiness and angst be replaced with happiness and contentment. She took him to her room and they spent their first night together, doing nothing but laying in each other's arms.
[End Flashback]
Pan looked around the room for Mirai, who would now most likely be having a nightmare about losing her. Her eyes adjusted to the room and noticed that it was strangely familiar. It took her only a few seconds to realize that it was Capsule Corp from her time. She felt out Mirai and Godin's ki, and found them each in their own room, next to hers. She walked into Godin's room and picked him up. She carried him to Mirai's room to find him tossing and turned in his sleep. A look of pain on his face, as he mumbled words about losing Pan and Godin. Pan put Godin under the covers next to Mirai, and she got in on the other side of Godin.
"Pan, please come back. Godin, don't leave me." Mirai mumbled. Pan grabbed his hand and held it tight as she placed it in Godin's chest, so they could feel the movements of his heart. "I'm here, Mirai. I'm here." Pan whispered to him. Mirai's face went from a look of pain to a smile. His tossing and turning stopped and his nightmares went back to being dreams.
