CHAPTER EIGHT
Back at the ship Pan and Goku were lying silently on a couch. Goku was sprawled out on his side, while Pan was curled up into a little ball. Goku had wanted to go with Trunks but Trunks had treated him like a kid and made him stay. Goku rolled his eyes around the sockets, trying to fight the continuous waves of boredom. 'Trunks is treating me like a kid, I am old enough to be his dad!'
Both Pan and Goku jumped at the large sonic boom. Goku scrambled to the window while Pan got off the floor where Goku had knocked her over. Outside in the green sky was the familiar flashing ki of Trunks, flying towards them at immense speed. Trunks landed a few seconds later, pushing a strand of hair behind his ear with a big grin.
"What did you find Trunks?" shouted Goku through the window.
Pan pushed him over. "Baka, he can't hear you!" Goku grinned sheepishly.
"I knew that". By that time the door to the ship was open and Trunks had climbed in. In his hand was a jumble of parts to something neither Pan or Goku knew what of. Trunks grinned at the two in front of him and walked to his workshop, shutting the door behind him.
Simultaneously Goku and Pan leapt towards the door. "Stop!" came Trunks muffled voice. Goku froze in mid air as Pan continued to inch towards the door. "I want some privacy guys, leave me alone for a couple of hours."
"What did you find Trunks?" asked Pan impatiently, annoyed by his actions. "Did you go into that horrible ship?" She crept closer to the door trying not to alert Trunks of her actions.
"I said stop! I'm not sure what I found, go away and let me look at it. I'll tell you later I swear." Trunks yelled out again, making Pan freeze. Goku, who had been holding his pose already called out to Trunks.
"I can't leave unless I move!"
A few hours later Trunks had finally taken apart the delicate memory box. It was difficult, the codes were in an alien language, one that Trunks had never heard of. It had taken him almost two hours just to upload his computer with the data to translate it. "Come on girl," Trunks said loudly to his computer as he attached the memory box, "don't make me incinerate you." With a few taps on his keyboard he began the process to un-code the memory box. Trunks then turned his attention to the laptop. It was in another language too, different from the memory box. Trunks picked up the laptop and placed it on his worktable and sighed. It was going to be a looonnnggg day.
Outside the ship, far away, Pan and Goku were sparring in the air. After Trunks had acted so mysteriously and told them to leave they had nothing else to do. It was a one sided fight. Pan used a combination of ki blasts, kicks and punches to attack her grandfather but Goku effortlessly blocked them all. 'Grrrr', Pan thought looking at Goku's badly hidden boredom, 'he's not even trying to hit me!' Pan withdrew and pulled up higher into the sky. Goku starred at her curiously. "Grandpa! I can't become stronger if you don't fight back!"
Goku looked up to her innocently, "what do you mean Panny, I'm fighting you?" Pan screamed in anger and flew back down right into Goku's face.
"No you aren't! You won't fight me 'cause I am weak! I can't become stronger unless you fight me for real!" She clenched her hands tightly into little balls, trying to subside her growing anger and pain. Her eyes flashed green and she grinned. Goku began to worry about her. She flew up into the air higher than she had flown before and turned back to face the planet below her.
"Ka.me.ha.me. HA! The attack came shooting out of Pan's hands, aimed at the Namekian planet.
"Pan, what are you doing?! Stop, you'll hurt the planet!" Goku dashed forward and caught the powerful blast. He used his energy to send it into outer space. Pan began to volley of more blasts at the planet. Goku caught each one before they hit the planet. 'Is she crazy? She might destroy the planet! I gotta make her stop!' Goku flew up to Pan. She stopped firing at the planet and began to attack her. This time, instead of only blocking Goku began to put in a few of his own punches. His third punch connected with Pan's jaw harder than he meant, sending her flying down towards the planet. Goku quickly caught her before she crashed. He lowered his granddaughter's crumpled form to the ground, for the first time realizing the irony of her being bigger than him self.
Pan opened one of her eyes and smiled the Son grin wearily. "See, you need to actually hit me if I am ever going to learn anything." She closed her eye and fell into unconsciousness.
........................
I am having a hard time getting through all these chapters. This part of the story was supposed to be over by Chapter Four, but it seems to have drag out much farther than I had expected. I hope it will be ready to move on in a few more chapters, cause THAT is when the story has another twist. I will try to make at least two new posts a week on fanfiction.net. The next one though might me even earlier depending on how my surgery goes. (Think next post between Saturday - Tuesday)
Who here really likes a certain android and her daughter? Out of curiosity of course ;) Email me with your thoughts. Or how about the androids at all? I have a few ideas to go with this story, but I need to know whenever or not people really like happier endings (I say happier because I can't stand the continuous happy endings) Tell me who your favorite characters are (a list of five or six - or more - if you can), Stick them in reviews, or email me at kitty_in_the_shadows@hotmail.com, or visit my site, www.geocities.com/shadow_kitty_corner and leave your response in the guest book.
Thanks, and thanks again for all the reviews, it keeps me from giving this up
