Living Without You


I don't own DBZ or GT...

"Pan!" Pan quickly turned around to see her mother. She was slightly agitated or so it seemed to her.

"What do you want mother? I was trying to find out exactly what you told me earlier. You know me Little Miss Curious." She smiled brightly and then went back to fiddling with the controls.

"You know Bulma-san isn't going to be happy that you are taking one of her most experimental ships into space. Let alone one that ~hasn't~ been tested yet Panny." Her mother sternly added to her earlier statement.

"I am doing this for a reason. You don't have to go if you don't want. I know how much otousan hyperventilates when he doesn't know where you are." Pan told her mother stepping away from the control panel. 'Damn machine.' Pan glared at the inanimate object. 'It's so much different than the one we used for the Grand Tour. Damn new technology.'

"Your father frets about you also. You know how he gets even if you're only a minute past curfew. Imagine what would happen if you were light years away from home. I know you're doing this for a reason but I don't think its best to do it now." Videl studied her daughter carefully. 'Even though she had known her the entire eighteen years of her life I still can't figure out what's going on in that head of hers.' Videl chuckled to herself.

"Umph." Both mother and daughter turned around to see Goten sprawled out on the floor. Pan began to laugh while Videl was trying helped the poor guy up. "Umm..heh...sorry about that...I was just wanted to thank Panny for whatever she did in the tank." Goten looked at both women grinning oddly.

"What are you hiding Uncle?" Pan walked up in front of the man and stared him in the eye. "I've been with you and Trunks to much to know when my dear Uncle is lying. So what are you doing here?" Pan searched the room but didn't see any movement.

"Well you know me. I always stubble into the wrong places, at the wrong times you know. But why do you want to go to space?" He looked at his niece seeing if she would tell him.

"To find out why the hell I powered up like I did during the car accident. You know it was kinda my fault. I was the ~one~ that kinda had a vision before it came but I didn't tell you guys about it. I am so sorry about that." Pan felt hot tears coming to her eyes but she quickly blinked them away. She wouldn't cry. She couldn't cry. That was just not her.

"But why space training and not here on Earth?" Goten was lost. He had no idea what the heck was going on. He got the drift of the entire matter but definitely not why.

"Because that's where okaasan and obaasan are from." Pan giggled when Goten almost fell over, for the second time that day. Goten blinked a few times and seemed slightly stunned, actually slightly would be rather an underestimate. He was extremely shocked.

"Me? Another type of alien?" Goten laughed in a scared and interested way.

"I think that's why I was able to escape being hurt in the first place. Since I'm special." Goten gave her the puppy eyes. "Well you are too but I'm just better because I'm me!" Pan smirked at her uncle as he glared at her.

"Stop it you two. Both of you are acting like five year olds." Both young adults looked at the floor after Videl scolded them. "Now Pan I want you to think about what you're doing here. If you go people might assume things that you wouldn't like. Preferably your tousan Pan. Now I'll wait in the house and I want you to make your decision and then tell me. Gohan is getting quite nervous since we've been gone for an hour." Videl turned around and exited the space capsule.

As soon as Pan sensed that her mother was inside the house Pan smirked at Goten. "Wanna come or not Uncle?"

"O..wait! Pan this is not a good idea. You heard what Videl said. Gohan will kill me!" Goten nervously began to try and find a way to un persuade Pan.

"Father would be even madder if her realized that you let his little girl go into space ~alone~." Goten stood there with his mouth open. "Coming?" Goten nodded and strapped himself into one of the seats.

"I'm am going to die from my own brother and okaasan when I come back. Arigatou Pan." Goten sighed and put his head down.

"Lift off in 10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1...Lift Off." The monotone voice of the computer announced. "Arrival on Planet Ariste-sei in 4 days, 6 hours, and 29 minutes." Pan nodded and started to head out of the control room.

"Weren't we still in Bulma's Space Capsule building when we lifted off Pan?" Pan turned around grinning. "Oh dear Kami I'm a dead man."

"Don't worry about it Uncle. I'll tell them I tied you to a chair and made you come."

"I'm a saiyan Pan. Rope can't hold me down."

"Did I say rope?"

"Well no...but...I'm so confused...where's the food?" Pan laughed at her uncle.

"Down this hall and to the left. I'm gonna go down to my bedroom. If you need anything search for my ki." Pan continued on her way until she felt someone grab her wrist. "Goten I thought I told where the food was..."

"Who said that I was Goten?" Pan gasped and flipped the guy over her head. "You! What are you doing on my space ship?" Pan glared at the man in front of her.

"First off this is my mother's ship and secondly I came to warn you." The lavender haired man told her. "Not to mention I'm a bit curious too."

"Curiosity killed the cat you know."

"Oh I know that. I'm a monkey, you're the one that has to worry Pan." Mirai Trunks sneered.

"Okay why are here to warn me. I think I know why you're curious but why warn me?"

"Someone's plotting against you. That's why the accident occurred. She planned it all." Trunks told her.

"Who was it then. There is no one I know that would want to kill me. I bet its you!" Pan powered up slightly.

"It was some blond girl. She was whispering into the phone. I was just trying to warn you baka. Sheesh you act as if everyone is you enemy. Is this how you always are?" Pan glared at the future Trunks and stormed down the hall. 'I'll take that as a yes...' Trunks sighed to himself and went around to explore the ship.

Everyone was in quiet conversations when the house began to shake.

"Ahhh!!!! Earthquake!!!!!" Bulma shouted and grabbed onto Vegeta, who at the moment was arguing with Goku and was not expecting Bulma to grab onto him like that and knock them both over.

"That's not an earthquake woman. Its one of your damned space capsules lifting off. Now get off of me." Bulma blushed and quickly got off the angered saiyan.

"Well it certainly looks like we had one. Look at my living room! It's a mess. Oh no...the tanks!" Bulma quickly ran down to her lab to check on the tanks. Videl had followed her to see if anything bad had happened to the people inside. "Thank god they're okay." Bulma quietly walked up to the tank with Bra in it. She placed her hand on the tank and sighed deeply.

Videl quickly exited the room quietly. She knew that Bulma would probably want to stay down there by herself for a little bit. When she got upstairs. Gohan had her coat and motioned her to leave. She nodded and quickly made her way over to her husband. When they were outside and about a mile from CC, Gohan began to slow down.

"That was Pan, wasn't it?" Gohan looked Videl in the eye. She turned her head because she couldn't stand him looking at her that way. "Videl..." Gohan flew over to her and held her in an embrace. "Please don't cry. I'm sure tousan can find her and make her come home."

Videl's body wracked with a sob and Gohan held her tighter. He rubbed her back until he felt her relax in his arms. "Gohan-chan it's my fault that she left. But don't worry Goten is with her. She should be fine." Videl felt Gohan tense. He released her. Videl felt his ki rise slightly.

"Why didn't he try to stop her?" Gohan angrily shot a ki blast at a tree. "He knows what happened the last time she went into space."

Videl shuck her head. "Gohan you're underestimating our daughter. She is perfectly capable of handling herself. For Kami's sake she is nineteen years old." Videl lightly punched Gohan in the arm. He mock whimpered. "Now lets go home before someone sees us and calls the police."

"Fine but when those two get back they are going to be in big trouble." With that Gohan began to fly toward his home with Videl close behind.

~*~

"Ahhhhhh!!!! Someone get this thing away from me!!! Pan! HELP MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" Goten shouted from inside the kitchen. Pan heard her Uncle's yell for help. When she got in the kitchen Pan gasped at the sight. Parts of the ground were singed where ki blasts had hit. Wondering why that happened Pan briefly looked over the kitchen. She saw slight movement behind one of the counters.

Pan began to laugh at the unsuspecting Goten. He looked at her as if she was nuts. "Why are you laughing?!? There's this thing that's trying to EAT me here!" Goten pointed and the shadow curled up under one of the chairs.

"I see, now I know why this happened." Pan grabbed the sandwich from Goten's hand getting a 'hey!' from him. Pan ignored him and put the sandwich down in front of her.

"Its gonna kill you Pan. Shoot it! Blast it! Just do something so it won't kill me!" Goten whined. He looked at the girl on the floor who winked at him. Goten gulped, he did ~not~ like that look on her face one bit.

'Finally someone knows what I want...oh hello master.' Pan heard the voice in her head and smiled as the large creature slowly made its way over to her and the food. 'This boy over here is a baka.'

I had an idea when I was writing this fic! I'm gonna let you all get a preview of the next chapter before it comes out plus a little comic thing at the end of each chapter when I can manage it! *grins* I'm also going to change the way I format the top of the page. It's going to have a chapter-by-chapter rating and what couples are in it. Plus any notes that I have to a reviewer/to clear things up. Please enjoy and review in the name of Kami!!!! Also tell me what couples you want to see (T/P,MT/P,G/B...etc.) also if you want me to include any lovey-dovey parts for a certain couple. You wish will be my command...or if I can fit it in!

Preview for next chapter of Living Without You:

"Nice kitty, niiiiiiiiiiiice kitty...." Goten slowly tried to get away from the large cat blocking his path. "Please move out of Goten's way. Yes that's right...no! Stay away from me!" Goten turned around only to be knocked silly by running into someone behind him.

Mirai Trunks smirked at the scene but quickly wiped it away when he noticed the steady glare at him for the feline. He gulped knowing that in one way this cat was smarter than he thought... Attack of the Action Figures

Goten: *mock faints*

Trunks: *shouts* DIE MONKEY, DIE!!!! (AN: had to do that)

Goten: *Sees Trunks and smirks. He clears his throat to make his voice deeper.* I will not die you incompetent fool. How dare you insult your king! I am your ruler now bow down to me!

Trunks: *sniffle* What do you want? *sniffle*

Goten: *bellows* Give me foooooooooooooooood. *Uses ki to make the 'monkey' action figure move*

*Trunks quickly runs out and returns with plenty of food on a large plate*

Til' next time...
