Disclamer : Ok, look...-_-...if I owned DBZ or DBGt, don´t you think that Trunks and Pan
would have been a couple a long time ago? Don´t you think that at least half
of the male characters would have been subjected to yaoi goodness?! Wouldn´t
there have been more than a dozen major hentai scenes popping up now and
then?!? Well?!! So shoo...you evil Japanese lawyers who are out go get my
blood and my last shred of sanity o_O


A/N : Thank you sooooo much to those of you who reviewed ^_^ *showers them with
complimentary DBZ plushies* You were really encouraging! So...here I go...I´ve
got a little new chapter for you...

The Key To Happiness...Part Two



Silence. Ever since he and the stolen baby in his arms came back to his little cottage in the
woods, there had been an erie silence.


On the way there he had put a small silver bracelet around her wrist. It wasn´t just any silver
bracelet, it was a vital part of his plan.


It was a ki-suppresser, one that he himself had designed and put together before he went to the
Son household. Afterall, he wasn´t dumb. He knew that Gohan and the other Z-Fighters would
be able to locate the child´s ki right away.


Therefor he had promptly thought up a ki-suppresser that would not only mask the child´s ki,
but it also allowed her to raise her ki without anyone being able to trace it. He was quite satisfied
with the outcome, this way he and his...daughter would still be able to spar without the Z-Fighters
becoming alert.


The reason why he chose that the ki-suppresser should look like an ornament, a pretty silver
bracelet, was merely because of the child. He knew that human females liked jewellery and since
this was the key to him being able to keep his child, it seemed only right that it would also serve
to make the little girl happy by owning such a thing.


She still hadn´t awoken and he was rather relieved. He had no idea what to do if she was to wake
up. He wasn´t quite ready to face her yet, to be reminded of what he had just done. That he had
just stolen a human, though one quarter Saiyan, child from its unsuspecting parents.


What if she woke up and started screaming? What if he couldn´t make her stop? What was he
supposed to do? He sighed, better not think about that right now.


Upon entering the cottage with little Pan cradled close in his arms, he had felt slightly unnerved.
This was the first person ever to set foot in his humble home. He didn´t have much, only the
essential.


Inside the cottage there was a lonely open space, an only partially furnitured room.


To the right there was a small kitchen area consisting only of an oldfashioned stove that
requiered wood to heat up and some necessary kitchen tools like knives and cups.


If you looked across the kitchen space you´d see a simple bed, a wooden chair and table with
an old transistor radio on it. That was his. His bedroom, as you might call it.


Were you to look at the right side of this room, you´d see a small fire place and a rocking chair
in front of it. The living room. The walls were bare and held nothing of interest.


This was his home, this was his life. Until now.


Now she was here. His precious little girl. She was his key to happiness.


A small noise from the bundle in his arms made him look down and when he did, he got the
shock of his life.


Icy blue met coal black.


He froze and the bag with all of her things dropped to the ground with a loud thud.


She was looking right at him, she was staring right into his eyes. And...surprisingly, he
couldn´t detect even the slightest sign of fear. He was stunned, this child, now his child,
didn´t look at him with a look of horror or disapproval because he was an android.


She was just looking at him, gazing up at his face with a look of curiousity edged on her young
features. Her little mouth was forming a slight 'o' as if to ask him who he was.


He licked his lips while thinking furiously about what he was supposed to do next. So far
everything was ok, but he had no idea where to go from here.


He felt slightly panicked. Had he done the right thing? Was he ready to do this? To raise a
child? Was he even capable of taking care of another living being?


He started rocking back and forth while trying to calm himself down. He didn´t even notice the
satisfied smile curving the small child´s lips as she felt the soothing rocking motion she had so
often experienced at home.


He was deep in thought when he suddenly felt something tucking on his hair. Well, not
something...more like someone. He looked down to see that the little girl had taken a hold of one
of his long raven strands and was now busy pulling it and giggling whenever she succeeded.


He beamed, his worries nearly forgotten. This what was he had seen her do to Gohan! Did this
mean...did this mean she accepted him as her new father?


He felt a warm prickling feeling running through his body, a feeling that he couldn´t quite place
and that made him feel relaxed and at ease, as if he had no worries at all.


Was it the feeling of being happy?


He did something he never expected to do. He smiled. He looked into her amused little eyes
and smiled, though hesitant, but still recognizable. And it wasn´t a smirk like he usually
confronted people with when he was trying to scare them or plain simply wanted to show them
who was the boss. It was a genuine smile.


The little girl in his arms shifted, she was still clutching the strand of raven hair and was now
sucking on her tiny fist while looking up into his eyes, as if she was waiting for him to do
something.


He looked at her and though he still felt uneasy about what to do with her, he felt slightly more
assured that everything would work out. They would make a great team, he was sure of it.


His longing after a duo ever since he had been separated from his sister because of her new life,
had now been replaced with the moving bundle in his arms.


This little person, this little girl would be his new partner, no more than that, she would be his
child, his dauther, his responsibility...


It was a bit overwhelming to think about all the things he would have to do to take care of her.
Would he even be able to? The corner of his mouth twitched. He had to make it work, he had
to find a way to do what millions of humans around the world did every day.


But they were humans, right? He was an android, an artificial being. He might not have what
all these humans had. What was it called again? He stood frowning while absent-mindedly
stroking the hair of the little girl.


Parental instinct? Yes, that was what he had heard some of those women in the village, not far
away, say. Did he have this...this parental instinct? He wasn´t sure, it wasn´t like he had ever
had a chance to show.


His thoughts came to a hold when he heard a loud cooing. Wondering what caused the
outburst he looked down and saw the little girl grinning at him, and it was then that he noticed.


His hand was carressing her small head, stroking her curly raven hair in soothing circles.


He was in awe. He hadn´t even noticed that he was doing it. Did this mean something? Could it
be a sign that he would be able to do it? That he could take care of her, like he had watched his
sister do with her daughter?


He smiled and looked into the little girl´s eyes as if to ensure her that everything was going to be
ok and that they could make this work if only they helped each other.


She giggled at him and blew a spit bubble.


He frowned. Was that normal?

*paces back and forth mumbling* No, no, no...maybe I could do this...argh! No...this is
much better...*sigh* I have too many ideas for this fic ¤_¤

1) I could let Gohan find Juunana and little Pan after a couple of days...Gohan then either
beats the living shit out of Juunana or decides to take pity on him because Pan is unharmed...
*snorts*....yeah right...pity for the guy who almost destroyed Gohan´s life by taking away his
only child...*_*
2) I could also let Juunana keep Pan, and then when she´s about 14-17 she somehow meets the
Briefs and thereby also the Sons...which would mean that she would then finally be reunited
with her real parents...but to make a little drama she might not wanna leave her "dad" Juunana
because to her he really IS her father...this could make the Sons and Briefs to force Pan to come
with them because they don´t wanna lose her again...this scenario ensures a lot of angsty
feelings o_O
3) Um...Juunana keeps Pan for a little while...days or weeks...and then decides to give her back
to her real parents, Gohan and Videl...maybe because he hears their national plea on his radio?
*shrugs* I don´t know...I´m kinda stuck here...

Eh...about the ki-suppresser...I had to put it in there..if not, Gohan would been blasting down
Juunana´s door in no time *_*
Ok...so...I´ll just tell you now...I think that Juunana is gonna name the little girl Pan...because
quite frankly I don´t wanna call her anything else! I did think of fx. Jen, but then I decided
against it, because Pan IS Pan and I don´t wanna make up some stupid name for her that
doesn´t fit her at all! Let´s just say that Gohan and Videl hadn´t come up with a name for her
yet...ok? ^_^
