Okay, okay, I'll be a good girl and explain a few things. This is my own
timeline, based on the one where Future Trunks came from. It follows the
story from History of Trunks almost exactly… Gohan had a friend named Marle
who he was talking to the day before he supposedly died. In my timeline, he
didn't die. He faked his own death for the protection of Marle and his
daughter, Pan, who had just been born. The androids were NOT killed. Pan
grew up in the company of Marle, thinking that she was her mother (Videl
died a long time ago, Gohan didn't even know who she was), and mourning the
loss of her father, who she had never seen. Gohan entrusted Trunks with
Pan's safety, not to mention a pendant in the shape and style of a four
star dragonball and an orange bandana he had gotten from Juunana- a sort of
prize. When Pan was fifteen, Juunana (Android 17) and Juuhachi (Android 18)
came, and Juunana killed Marle. He was about to kill Pan when Trunks
intervened. Trunks and Pan eventually ended up together, having a daughter
named Luna (A 6-year-old genius with long purple hair, light blue eyes, and
one hell of an attitude). Later on, Juuhachi approached Pan and revealed
Pan's clouded past. Pan wasn't Marle's daughter, she was Juuhachi's; Marle
was just her guardian. Gohan was still alive, and watching at all times.
Pan came home, and her and Trunks got into a fight about why he had lied to
her all that time. Trunks went off and raped Pan's mother, Juuhachi (NOT
Videl). This is what occurred after Trunks came home. For the full story,
wait for me to get 'Things Will Never Be The Same' up. Now, for chapter Two
of 'A New Resistance' (And if ya want, you can check out a poem that I
wrote that coincides with this story- It's called 'What Should I Do, Where
Should I Go', under CelestialDarkness. Check it out!) READ and REVIEW,
please!!!!
~*~A New Resistance~*~
PaRt TwO- What Would I Do Without You
Pan landed in the middle of Satan City. The place was only ruins now, but some desperate souls still inhabited the grounds.
Where is it… she thought.
"Aha…" she said softly, and entered a small alleyway. She then headed towards a shabby looking door at the end. As she entered, a smile crossed her face.
"Hello, Pan!!! Long time no see," A young man with spiky brown hair said, a smirk crossing his face.
"Same to you, Cirez! And hi, Caren!" she replied, and walked into the tiny room, closing the door behind her.
Pan had known Caren and Cirez since she was five years old. They had always been really tight friends, especially now, since there was important business to take care of… Just then, a little boy with spiked black hair and large, deep blue eyes came wandering out from behind some boxes in the back of the room.
"Mommy?" he said, his voice hauntingly similar to Luna's.
"Hey, Aidan*," Pan said, and hugged the boy.
Pan had kept this a secret from Trunks for a long, long time. A few years ago, Pan had seen this little boy on the street. He had no home, no food… he just kept muttering 'Juunana…'. She had taken him to Caren and Cirez, who nursed him back to heath. Juunana had approached Pan later, explaining that it was his son… when Pan asked who the mother was, he said it was her. It turns out that Aidan had been Luna's twin brother, taken by Juunana, and raised as his son. And because of a few forced instances between Pan and Juunana, he could be his son… so she had hidden Aidan from Trunks. She thought that if he grew up away from Trunks, when he was old enough he would respect the fact that Pan had kept him from his father to protect the both of them. So Aidan lived with Caren and Cirez, and Pan had occasional visits. Yet, so far, poor Aidan had never even seen his twin sister… only one thing connected them, as far as he was concerned. They both had identical necklaces, with only one exception- Luna's had a silver moon, and Aidan's had a golden sun.
"Mommy, you weren't supposed to come until next week! Why are you here so early?" Aidan said, his innocent voice hiding the true wisdom and knowledge he already possessed.
"Sweetie, Mommy had a change of plans. Hey! I have an idea! Why don't you go draw another picture for Mommy? If you do, I'll have enough to make a book for your Daddy of all the pictures you and Luna have drawn! Go on, now!" Pan said, and gave Aidan a big hug, and then she watched as he ran off to the back of the room, grabbing his crayons along the way. She smiled lovingly, and then sighed.
"Why don't you go into your bedroom, Aidan," Caren said.
"Okay!" he replied cheerfully, and ran off into another small room.
Pan's eyes rested on the opening to his room.
"So Pan… why are you really here," Cirez said, going over to the couch and plopping down on it.
"You know me too well," Pan replied with a smirk, and sat down beside him. Caren then joined them.
"So what happened?" Caren asked.
Pan stayed silent for a moment.
"Pan?"
She really didn't want to tell them, but that concerned sound in Cirez's voice… it was making her feel like she had to.
"… I… I… I left Trunks…"
"WHAT!?!?" Caren and Cirez yelled in unison, and Aidan came out of his room and peeked over at them.
"It's okay, honey, go back to drawing," Pan said, flashing a big smile at Aidan. He nodded and went back to his room.
"Pan, why would you do that! You and Trunks have been together for forever!!! And what about Luna and Aidan?" Caren said, her voice sounding shaky.
Pan explained what had happened; what she didn't realize, though, was that Aidan was lurking behind the door and heard every word.
"But why would he do that…" Cirez said, his voice dangerously low and a hint of rage beginning to grow. "Why would he go and do that…"
"Cirez, calm down. I don't know why he did it. I'm not even sure if I really want to know… But he did do it. But I don't know what made me leave like I did… I don't know what came over me…"
"But if he loves you as much as you say he does, why would he-"
Caren was interrupted as the door opened and a small, shadowed figure entered.
"Mommy…" it said softly.
"LUNA!!!" Pan yelled, and ran over to the child, embracing her soaking wet body. Tears started to run from Luna's eyes.
"I know that you're mad at Daddy, but please come back-"
"Luna," Pan interrupted, "How did you get here? And where is your father?"
"He went upstairs after you left," Luna said, the innocent tone in her voice perfectly matching her brothers'. "I went up after him and opened the door to your room. He told me to go downstairs. I think he was crying. His face was wet. So I left and I felt that you were here, so I followed you."
Pan looked into Luna's eyes, and tears began to leak out.
"I'm so sorry, Luna…" Pan said, hugging Luna tightly. "I wasn't thinking… I'm really sorry-"
"Luna?" a voice said from behind Pan. It was Aidan. Although he had never seen her, he knew that she was his twin. He could feel it inside of her.
"Aidan…" she said, her voice barely above a whisper. Pan's brow furrowed in confusion.
"Luna… how do you know who Aidan is?"
She answered simply one word.
"Juunana."
Aidan walked towards them, tears starting to form in his eyes, which was very surprising. Aidan wasn't exactly the kind of boy to break down and start crying.
"My sister…"
Luna smiled, and escaped her mother's embrace to run over to Aidan and embrace him. Tears came steadily for the both of them now.
Pan smiled, and tears also started rolling freely down her cheeks. Her two children… seeing each other for the very first time… she went over to them and embraced them both.
"I love you two…" she whispered softly, and there they all sat, warm in each other's arms.
After awhile, they broke apart.
"Caren… Cirez… thank you so much for taking care of Aidan… but I think I'm going to take him with me this time," Pan said with a smile.
Aidan's face lit up, and so did Luna's.
"Really?!" he said.
"Yes, really. Go pack your stuff into some capsules. Luna, you go help him. And don't take all day!"
Luna rushed into his bedroom… Aidan stood where he was and stared at Pan for a moment, smiling, before he headed into his room with Luna. Pan turned and gave both Caren and Cirez huge hugs.
"I thank you both so much for what you've done for me, and I'll be back to visit soon."
"But where will you go?" Cirez said, that concerned look back in his eyes.
"We'll find someplace, don't worry. Just take care of yourselves, and keep hope alive for the people of Satan City, okay? Everything will work out soon enough, and this hell will finally be over."
Pan shot them a reassuring smile as Luna and Aidan came over to her.
"Everything will be okay. Just stay alive until it is, you guys."
Caren nodded, and Cirez smirked.
"Goodbye… for now."
Just as Pan was about ready to head out the door, Aidan ran over and gave Caren and Cirez hugs.
"I'll never forget you guys," he said, and smiled at them.
"Same to you, lil brat," Cirez joked.
"Come back and see us," Caren replied.
Aidan smiled, and followed his mother and sister out of the house.
"Lets go, you two," Pan said, and together they headed out of the alleyway onto the deserted street.
