Hey hey hey! Here's another chapter! Thanks to those who reviewed the last one. And yes, I know I'm portraying Pan as weak, but I'm kind of doing that on purpose. This is an A/U fic. And besides, it gives way to more romance, don't ya think?

Also, I got a rather rude review saying that I'm not using Trunks as a character right. And if I may point you in the direction of the first author's not, I said it was an AU or alternate universe fic. So, since MY fic is not following any time line from the show, (other than the fact that this would take place after GT if it were real) I can make the character's personalities how I like, even if I alter them.

Disclaimer: *points at a random person* here, go ask them.

The two just stayed in their room for the rest of the day.

Trunks had fallen asleep on a couch and decided to move to his bed after waking up to a really sore neck. These couches were obviously not meant to be slept on. He looked at his watch and noticed that it was 9:30 (pm). Then, as he got up off the couch he noticed Pan was still asleep. Trunks climbed into his bed and closed his eyes. After a while, he joined Pan in dreamland.

Later, he woke with a start and looked around the room. Pan was still in her bed, which was against the wall. There wasn't anything unusual in the room. Thinking he was just paranoid, he took one more look.

This time, his eyes stopped on Pan. She was shivering like mad. It was a wonder she hadn't woken up yet. Trunks wondered why she was so cold until he stuck an arm out from under the covers. It was freezing!

He quickly decided what he was going to do. Trunks floated out from under his blankets and towards Pan's bed. He had grabbed his think blanket off the top of his bed as he moved. He put the blanket over her bed and floated against the wall, slowly lowering to her bed. He pulled the covers up enough for him to slide under, but not enough to lose whatever heat was under them.

It was a tight fit in the bed, with out her falling out. After all, it was only supposed to be for one person. Pan was lying on her side, her back to the wall, and Trunks, too. He was glad; it made it easier for him. He lay on his side, his back to the wall. He wrapped an arm around her and pulled her against him, to warm her up.

"I know you're strong, Pan" Trunks whispered. "But I can't stand to see you cold."

She was still shivering. It wasn't as bad as before, but only when she stop did Trunks allow himself to fall back asleep.

*****

Pan woke up first. She rolled over to hit a wall of muscle. Startled, she looked at the face and saw Trunks. She shook her head and snuggled into his chest, closing her eyes again.

Trunks woke up when she rolled over, but kept his eyes closed. His arm had left her waist and he wrapped it back around her. She sighed and looked up at him again. His eyes were now open, and he looked back at her.

"Morning." Trunks said.

"Morning," she answered and tried to sit up, but his grip prevented it. He quickly let go, allowing her to sit up. "So, what are you doing in my bed?"

"You were cold." Trunks answered her. "And I didn't want you to be, so I came over here. You know, I had more blankets on my bed than you did."

"Really...I didn't know that." Pan answered. "And thank you."

"Of course! You didn't think I would let you freeze, did you?" Trunks smiled at her.

"'Course not. But thanks anyway." Pan replied and stood up. She pulled the blankets back over at him. He moved to the center of the bed and closed his eyes.

"Going to shower?" Trunks asked.

"Yes," she answered and walked to the bathroom and shut the door. Trunks remembered last time she showered and a twinge of worry came over him. But, he figured, she'd be fine today, and if she wasn't, he'd be there for her, like he said he always would. He fell back asleep as she turned the shower on.

As she stood under the cold water, Pan thought of what they could do today. Then she got an idea. They could find Anya's family! She quickly finished taking her shower and got dressed. She brushed her teeth and combed her hair then ran over to where Trunks was still sleeping.

Trunks felt himself being shaken awake, rather roughly. This immediately started a panic. "What? What is it? What's wrong?"

"Nothing's wrong, Trunks, I was thinking, we should get Anya and see if she wants to find her family! I'm sure she'll want to!"

"That's not a bad idea," Trunks said, sitting up. "I'll go shower. Why don't you find the kitchen and get us something to eat?" Pan nodded. "And if you need anything, just call?" (AN: You know, telepathy?)

"Right." Pan said and started walking towards the door. Trunks caught her waist and turned her back around. He planted a kiss on her lips before 'allowing' her to leave.

Pan shut the door as Trunks was shutting the door of the bathroom. She wandered to the kitchen. By now, she knew where it was and just went right in.

"Hello, Ali." Pan said to her friend.

"Oh, hello, Pan!" Ali answered, and continued cooking whoever's breakfast she was cooking.

"We'd like some food, when you get a chance, okay?" Pan asked.

"Sure!" Ali answered with a smile. "It might be a little while, though."

"That's okay." Pan answered. "Could you get someone to bring it to my room?" Ali nodded. "Okay, thanks a lot!" With that, Pan left the kitchen.

::Trunks?::

::Yeah?::

::Ali said she's going to get our food and they'll bring it to our room.::

::Okay.:: Trunks answered.

As she was walking, Pan decided to take a different way, hoping she wouldn't get lost. She looked at the different decorations that were on the walls. Many were pictures of Andiraftians. Some were young and some were old. The oldest-looking one had blue-ish colored hair and a light pink colored skin. He had a proud look on his face and an aggorrant look in his eyes. She guessed that these were previous rulers of the planet.

She entered a hallway that seemed...well...different. It had a creepy feeling about it. Old. That's the word. It seemed older than the other rooms and halls. The stone walls seemed duller than the rest. There were pictures of people on these walls, too, but they also seemed different. Only they didn't seem old; they seemed evil. When Pan got to the end of the hall, she found a door. It was very old looking, like the rest of the hall. She knew she shouldn't go in, but curiosity got the better of her.

As she turned the handle, she thought she heard someone inside. No matter. She could defend herself. Still, she opened the door. Of course, the room was old. That was predictable. The thing that surprised her was that she couldn't see anyone, even though she was sure she had heard someone.

Pan took a step forward and allowed the door to almost close. Then, she saw something move out of the corner of her eye. As she turned, she felt something blunt hit the back of her head. She had just enough time to send a weak ::Trunks...:: Before she saw black. The being who hit her snapped a ki drainer around her neck and lifted her up and walked away.
