****A/N:
Thank you…
KinkySaiyan… I'll be trying to make my chapters longer, but sometimes, that just doesn't work… I will try though… *^-~*
badgerwolf… I have too thank Danyella Skyler Silverfire for that one. Trunks' being a precog was partly her idea. I'm sooooo glad that you liked it! I think Trunks would get it from Vegeta… Saiyajin are supposed to have some psychic ability…
edward-tivrusky-5… Yeah… *sighs, thinking about own chances with Mirai…* I wouldn't have a chance either… But at least you have the brains!
A little romance would do these guys a world of good, wouldn't it? Since this is PG-13, you don't have to worry about lemons… I might write on some day… definitely not today… but if I do, I will give you a warning…!
Lauren Williams… Thanks for the encouragement! As you see, my writer's block has given me a rest for the moment…
Rini… Vegeta and Gohan will be in the story more, later… Gohan's supposed to show up in this chapter… he skips sometimes though…
p… I'm trying… The block is coming down…
My spell check is telling me to write "Gohan's" as "guano's"… *shakes head dejectedly…* Stupid computer…
Disclaimer: Wow! I remembered twice in a row! If you think I own it, you're nuts *evil cackle*! ****
Trunks POV
I flew from my office window in a better mood than that with which I had started the day. I was going to get to spend the evening with the three people I love most… my little sister, and my two best friends.
My suit jacket fluttered as I flew over the city, toward home. The full moon crowned the city's rooftops with a halo of pale light. I quickly reached home, but I didn't want the flight to end so quickly, so I hovered over my balcony for a while.
I heard a laugh come from a nearby balcony… my sister's. The laugh wasn't hers, though. It was Goten. What was he doing in my sister's room… oh, yeah, they are going out, aren't they?
"What's so funny Goten?"
"You wouldn't believe how funny it is to see a guy in a business suit flying…" he broke off with another laugh and gave me a big cheesy grin.
Thinking about his comment, I looked at myself. I had to laugh with him. It looked kind of… corny.
"I could use a good joke… What's so funny?" Bra walked out of her bedroom and onto the balcony.
Goten chuckled, "Look at your brother… and figure it out."
"What? The bird?" Bra asked innocently, looking up.
I looked up, just in time to see a small bird dive at me. Goten laughed as the bird attacked.
I know it was funny looking… but did he have to laugh so hard? "Kisama (A/N something like "oh, shit" or "you fuck")!!!" Damn thing tried to bite me! "Stop laughing! It's trying to eat me!"
Goten laughed harder as it swooped toward my face.
I caught it mid-swoop. It was a hawk… a very small hawk… also, a very mean one. It bit my thumb. "Ouch!" I exclaimed, nearly dropping it. "Anyway, guys, you know that there's a party tomorrow, right?" They nodded. "There's a… pre-party going on tonight… I guess. The three of us are invited."
Bra laughed, "You better not show up wearing that!"
"Exactly. Here, Goten, take this," I said, handing him the bird. "I have to change." I walked in my balcony door with Bra calling out behind me,
"Wear something that you wouldn't mind getting ruined… You know how Pan's parties get!"
Of course I knew…
Pan POV
I'm glad that Trunks had called. If he hadn't, I'd be in a lot of trouble… And Dad, who I hadn't even told about my tail, would probably have been forced to cut it off. My poor tail… I petted it sympathetically. I liked my tail. In fact, I would be seriously pissed if something were to happen to it.
I glanced at the clock. They should be here any minute. Mom and Dad had left ten minutes ago, and I was starting to get really exited. Trunks was coming over. Bra and Goten were coming too, but I was more excited about Trunks' coming. I have a confession to make. I've had a crush on him ever since I was really little.
He was, in my opinion, the most wonderful guy in the world. He was rich too, but I really didn't need to worry about that… I've got an inheritance.
Trunks is handsome, smart and kind… at least, to people he likes, and even to some he doesn't. He wasn't too naïve… that is a trait from my family… And, although he is always busy, he always is willing to make time for friends.
I think we would have been wonderful together… if not for our age difference. I'm in my early twenties, and he's in his late thirties… That is too big of an age difference. Some things are just not meant to be.
I sighed and waited. I looked at the clock again. Any minute now…
A loud voice at the doorway (Goten) told me that my waiting was over. The voice said, "Trunks, hurry up!"
Another voice, Bra, answered, "He can't help but be slow, Goten. He's getting old. And sitting around in that office of his all day, getting no training time in, isn't helping matters one bit…"
Trunks complained, "Maybe I am getting old early… The stress is getting to me guys… Look! I'm getting wrinkles!"
The three voices outside laughed. I opened the door, joining in on the laughter. "What wrinkles, Trunks? I don't see any."
"I'm starting to get frown wrinkles like Father," To prove his point, he frowned at me.
I leaned closer to him, examining the lines. His face returned to its normal, cheery look. I gave him a mock-worried look. "Kami! I think you're right!"
He pouted, "You're not supposed to agree."
Bra and Goten busted up laughing again.
"Oh, well," Trunks said sadly, "I take no offense." He pouted again.
I laughed and ushered them inside.
"So," Trunks asked, "what, exactly, are we having a pre-party for?"
Bra glared at him, "Duh! We're gonna talk about tomorrow."
"Among other things…" I interjected.
"Like what?" asked Goten, cluelessly.
"Well…" I shrugged. "We're going to discuss serious matters…"
"You dragged me over here for serious talk? You must be nuts," Goten glared.
"I think I know what it is you want to discuss, Pan," Trunks said quietly. Goten and Bra looked up at him. "I don't really want to discuss my side of it…"
"Well," I said, "if you're not going to talk about it, I will!" I glared at him, threateningly.
"Nani (remember? Means "what"?)?" asked Goten, cluelessly (ha ha).
"Here, all," I plopped down onto the floor… dragging Trunks with me.
"Nani?" asked Bra, "Are you two getting together?"
Trunks stared at his little sister, shocked. "Iie (no)!" Trunks growled, a little to quickly. What's going through his head?
I thought to myself, I really wish that that was what it is… "Iie," I agreed. "We are going to talk about tails and predictions."
Goten smiled brightly, "You mean tales and predictions of the apocalypse?" (A/N Goten actually knows that word? Ha ha…)
"Iie!" I growled. "I'm talking about a Saiyajin's tail, and, like, precognitive predictions. Duh!"
Goten's smile dulled. "Oh…" he sounded so clueless… "whose tail?"
"Mine!"
He nodded dully, "What kind of predictions?"
"All sorts…"
"Whose?"
At that point Trunks growled. "Mine."
Now Bra was looking confused. "I knew about your tail, Pan, but since when has Trunks…"
"I've been making 'predictions' for quite a while now Bra."
"Nani? You guys are confusing me…!" Goten looked back and forth between me, Trunks, and Bra. (A/N Goten's so clueless… ha ha!) "Pan-chan, are you guys saying that you grew back your tail, and that Trunks is some kind of psychic?"
"Exactly," I said happily. He finally understood…!
"I don't get it." He stared cluelessly at the rest of us. We all groaned, this is going to take forever! "But, I'll accept it."
I sighed with relief.
"Trunks…" Bra glared at her brother.
"Nani?" he growled.
"Since when have you…?"
"I've had weird dreams ever since I was little, okay?"
Trunks POV
Right after I said that, she started nagging me. Why hadn't I told her? Because, I thought then as I think now. They were nothing but silly dreams.
"Hey, hey, Boxer-boy (A/N Where did that phrase come from? I'm confused.). Tell them your prediction on who's going to be missing… and who the surprise guest is supposed to be…"
I glared at Pan and sighed. Oh well, I'd tell. "I'm probably wrong, but… Tien, Chiaotzu, Yamcha, Puar and Piccolo won't be coming. I would think that a little obvious, though…"
Bra interrupted my grumble, "Who's the surprise guest gonna be?"
I growled at them, "Can't you just let it be a surprise?"
"Iie," said Goten and Bra… Pan just snickered at me.
"Son Kun," I growled, deep in my throat, so that they couldn't understand me.
"Who?"
"Son Kun!" this time I yelled it.
"My dad?" asked Goten, delighted.
Bra just mouthed a "wow". Or maybe it was a "whoa". I'm not sure…
Pan laughed, "Sounds kind of crazy doesn't it? We'll see about that tomorrow."
Goten looked up and said, out of nowhere, "Tail? Let me see."
Bra giggled as Pan extracted her tail from the waistband of her pants. It waved freely behind her. It was such a pretty tail… Its lovely ebony coloring had a faintly purple sheen… It looked so soft.
I suddenly realized that my little Panny-chan was an adult now. I mean… I've known for a while that she was technically an adult but… she just never seemed like one…
I didn't realize it but my face must have been slightly flushed… because Bra leaned over and asked me why I was blushing. I felt my eyes widen, as I stared at my little sister. "Nani? It's a little hot in here, that's all," I said, smiling sheepishly.
"Wow… I saw Dad's tail, before… and Vegeta's (A/N Here, my spell check says that "Vegeta's" should be spelled "vegetates"… Stupid computer…). I didn't think any of us Demi-Saiyajin would ever grow ours back…!" I snapped to with Goten saying that. "Can I touch it? Dad and Vegeta were always touchy about that…"
Pan gave him a weird look and nodded her head once, indicating that he had permission… "You pull it, Goten, and you die!"
"I won't," he said wonderingly (A/N You just gotta love Goten's innocent attitude. ^-^). "It's soft."
Suddenly, Pan started giggling. "Stop that! It tickles!!!"
Goten let go of her tail, looking confused (A/N When is he not confused?).
I couldn't help but laugh too… Poor Goten… "That's weird… May I?" I asked, indicating her tail.
"Hai (yes)… try not to tickle me, though… please."
I touched it carefully… I didn't want her to be angry with me for tickling her… The dark fur was softer than it looked. I rubbed the tip of it gently in between my thumb and forefinger… It was so soft… She startled me by starting to purr. I dropped it…
Her face turned pink, "Gomen (sorry)! That just felt… nice…"
Her reaction wasn't what bothered me though… it was my reaction! After all, she's way to young for me… And Bra's way too young for Goten, but that didn't stop him…! Well, I'm not Goten…
I had a small battle going on in my head over how to think of Panny-chan…
Goten POV
Trunks had the strangest expression on his face… So did Pan for that matter… I know that I'm not the best judge in such matters, but to me it looks like they like each other…
I tried to recall what little I actually know about… the way Saiyajin get together… which is not much… except, of course, that it's pretty violent.
Let's see… they meet their destined mate, and get… feelings for them. Then, they mate, and bite and… Sounds vicious, doesn't it? Okay… after the little biting thingy, they end up bonded for life… And, although I'm thirty-six, I'm still not sure just how that works… That's the price of being a Son.
Bra leaned over and asked me if I thought that we should leave them alone.
"That wouldn't be a good idea… You know what would happen, then…" I whispered, "I doubt that Gohan and Videl would be too happy about that…"
"Oh!" Bra blushed. I blushed too… although I'm not to sure why…
Pan POV
What's the matter with me? Why did I just start doing that? I mean, I've never had anybody touch me in a way that made me want to… purr… He isn't even touching me anymore and I still feel like purring… I hadn't really take Dad all that seriously when he said how sensitive his tail had been. But the way he said it, it sounded like a bad thing!
That made me feel something else, also… even more than I normally feel it… I really wanted him to… at least like me as a woman! I'm not a child, Trunks!
The front door opened and closed. Too late, I realized that my parents were home… Damn it! I didn't have time to hide my tail. My father was already right behind me.
"Pan? What is this?"
I looked up into his face nervously, "Uhmmm…"
****So! Was it worth the wait? Sorry about the cliffy! *giggles nervously, glancing about room- looking for assassins…* The writer's block fairy might not be dead, but I sure gave her a good wallop! *dances in chair*
How do I know if chapter six was worth the time I put into writing it? You, the reader, would review it! I'm so happy that I got 18 reviews now!
What do you guys think?
Preview: Pan's got some explaining to do… and will Goku show up at her party? Will ChiChi try to kill him? Watch out for that frying pan! Is chapter seven going to be romantic? Funny? Shocking? I don't know yet…
Thank you…
