It's interesting to see how this'll turn out. I'm sad to see though that you don't care about the lawn chair Saiyan Serpent.

Tisk tisk

Oh well. I'm sure you'd all like to read the latest installement.

Chapter 2

"You can't be serious."

Trunks leans against his desk in his blue jeans and untucked red t-shirt. He has his arms crossed and is attempting to ignore his paperwork scattered across the floor. His tone being low and unprovoking.

Pan stands before him, her arms crossed as well. She steps forward and places a soft kiss on his lips, wrapping her arms around his waist. She leans her head on his chest, giving him the best puppy dog eyes she could muster.

"Please Trunks-kun? It's only for a few hours. A have some last minute stuff to buy and he really wants o spend today with his Daddy. I mean, we leave tomorrow morning."

He sighs deep, unfolding his arms. He gently strokes her back, his eyes caught with hers. He laughs lightly knowing he can't possibly say no to her. He kisses her on the forehead and releases from her grasp. He starts picking up the papers scattered on the floor.

"He's gonna get bored here. I still have lots of work to do."

Not paying attention, Tsuragi walks up to Trunks and places a kiss on his cheek. He takes Tsuragi into his arms and stands again along side Pan. She sets Tsuragi's bag on the floor and kiss Trunks once again, then ruffles Tsuragi's hair.

"Take care of Daddy Tsuragi, and make sure he gets all his work done."

Tsuragi giggles and Trunks roles his eyes at her. She zips up her coat and starts to leave through the window when Trunks grabs her by the arm again. She looks back as to ask him what.

"You probably shouldn't teach him to ki blast the building like that. It's not funny and it's a good way to get me to go Super Saiya-jin on ya!"

She grins innocently and bounds out of the window. Taking flight towards the mall. They watch her go until she's to far away to see.

He then sets Tsuragi on the ground and leads him to a large filing cabinet at the far side of the room and points to a large stack of blank paper and explains to him to put all the paper into the bottom drawer of the cabinet. After thinking for a moment, he hops to work and Trunks goes back to picking up his paper work and cleaning up his coffee spill.

The last of the papers are picked up as Trunks sits back in his chair, his waste bin full from all the ruined documents. Tsuragi is still working on his stack of paper. He pulls his chair forward and opens up a file folder when Tsuragi comes running and jumps into his lap, taking the pen from his hand. He looks over Tsuragi's shoulder and laughs as he pretends to read all the legal crap.

He's consentrating on the paper when the door to the office opens. Trunks looks up to see who's coming in. Surprised to see that its his secretary. Ms. Haruna approaches the desk and stops along the side. She looks down to see Tsuragi working deligently on the picture he is drawing on the all important contracts.

"Well, who's this cuttie?"

Tsuragi looks up, his eyes meeting Ms Haruna's. A serious look on his features.

"Daddy."

He answers sweetly and then continues with his work. Trunks then takes ahold of her attention.

"Ms. Haruna. You know how I always have you make three copies of documents but you always complain about it and mummble that it's a waste of trees? Well, I need you to bring me the second set of copies of the stack of laboratory paperwork you brought me this morning for signing. The first set of copies were ruined."

She backs a couple feet from his desk, fidgeting with her hands.

"Sir there's a little problem with that.........I didn't make the copies that you had told me to make. Those were the original and only copies."

He nods to her and continues with his work. She turns to leave the room. As she reaches the door, he calls her.

"Ms Haruna." She looks back to him. "You're fired."
