IT NEVER EXISTED

CHAPTER TWO

Run away to only come back again.

Disclaimer: i don't own anything.

Hey! i didn't think that i would have this up by Friday. Anyway, here is chapter 2. Thanx for the reveiws, it really got me going!

Pan opened her eyes and took in her surroundings, immediately reconising it as the spare room that she always stayed in while sleeping the night at CC. Then she laid eyes on something that she wished that she didn't. It was the body of a sleeping Trunks sitting on the chair with his head on the desk. Memories of what happened flooded to her mind, hatred was churning in her stomach. She was having a very hard time keeping her ki down as not to wake him up.

Pan removed the covers from her body and swung her feet over the edge of the bed and stood up. Very quietly she walked over to the door and opened it. While the door was being opened it let out a squeak. Pan flinched at this, turning to face Trunks to see if he had woken up, he hadn't. Pan didn't think that she could face Trunks now, not ever. She had to get away and fast. Pan didn't tale her eyes off of him while slowly closing the door quietly.

Pan let out a sigh of releif that she had gotten ou tof the room. She turned around to leave, but bumped into something hard. Pan was face to face with non other than Vegeta.

'Where do you think your going Brat?' he questioned in a stern voice.

'Non of your buissness, and don't call me Brat Vegeta! I do have a name. You would think after you being my sensei for the past year i would have gotten some respect from you' Pan said nto raising her voice too loud as not to wake up "him".

'You have Brat' Vegeta said smirking with his arms crossed over his chest.

'Whatever, i gotta go' Pan replied with annoyance in her voice. She pushed past him and started down the heading down the hall, before stopping and facing Vegeta, maybe for the last time. 'Hey Vegeta?' a grunt was her reply. 'Tell my parents that i'm sorry?'

'What, can't you say it yourself?'

'No' she said sighing heavily and faced the ground. 'What are you supposed to do when the only person in the entire world that can stop you crying, makes you cry?' tears stared to fill her eyes again. She wouldn't let Vegeta see her cry. She didn't want to loose the little respect he had for her, if he had any at all. She began to run down the hall again but was stopped by a hand grabbing at her arm. Pan turnd her head around over her shoulder to see Vegeta.

'Be careful' Pan was totaly surprised. Affection from Vegeta was rarely seen, if even at all. Pan nodde in response. Vegeta loosend his grip to let Pan go. they both exchanged weak smiles before Pan continued on. Just before she reached the top of the stairs was Trunks room, and she couldn't help but have one last look. Pan cautiously opened the door and poked her head in. She walked over to his bedside table and opened the top draw, and managed to find a peen and paper. On the paper she wrote.

What do you do when the only person in the whole world that can stop you crying, makes you cry?

Pan felt as if she were repeating herself, having just said that to Vegeta but that was a saying she had always said to her friends when their boyfriends had broken up with them. She had said it to Bra numerous times, but now was her time to say it to herself.

Pan decided to leave that for Trunks to read, just to let him know how much he had actually meant to her, before breaking her heart.

'I hate you Trunks, more than you'll ever know' she said through clenched teeth. At that point in Pan's life she decided that she would never trust another male again.

SIX YEARS LATER...

Pan slowly walked up the next flight of stairs in wide leg jeans and a red tanktop to her appartment. When she finally reached the door with the number 276 on the front, she let out a heavey sigh.

'Thank Dende!' Pan opened the door to her cosey home, placed the keys on the table to her right, and continued to walk over to the olive coloured couch opposite the TV. She lied down and placed a pillow behind her head, and uncontrollably began to think of everyone back home.

i wonder if they would remember me? she tought. Pan had changed considerably over the years. For starters she was now 22, her body had grown curves that weren't there when she left so sudeenly, her hair was now half way down her back, and she had reached a power that Vegeta would be jelous of. Of coase Pan surpressed her ki while not training, but while training she would wear a blood red pendant that was on a silver chain that made her ki compleately unreadable. Pan was actually surprised at how she had gotten it. The last day she had seen Vegeta, he had placed it in her poket when she had bumped into him while leaving the bedroom. He must have known that she was going to leave, although she has no idea how. He was wiser than what people gave him credit for.

Then her mind slipped onto a certain lavender haired man. Pan's smile quikly turned into a frown. Yes she was still mad at him, even after six full years. She is a very stubborn person.

'Damn you!!' she yelled in frustration. Pan slammed her hands down on the couch and in the process breaking it. 'And damn this pathetic couch!!' Pan just thought about that remark actually sounded.

The phoen began to ring and Pan picked herself off the ground and over to the phone on the kitchen bench. pan picked it up hearing people chearing and klinking glasses.

'Hello?'

'Hey Panny!! Hows it hangn?' came a slightly drunk voice over the phone.

'It's hangn great , depending on what your talking about Celest?' Pan said giggling at her friends expence.

'Umm...that's s good question'

'Just how drunk are you exactly?' Pan asked

'Only a teeny, weent, tiny bit'

'Oh that much? Where are you?'

'I'm at the local'

'Ok, I'll be there in 5 alright, just stay there'

'I'm not going anywhere'

'Whatever you recon Celest. See ya soon'

'NO, i'll see yooou soon' And with that Pan hung up the phone and walked over to the table, picked up her keys and left her appartment.

Walking down the stairs to the car garage, Pan passed a couple making out. Don't people have any consideration for others?

She walked up to her car and hopped in. As she turned on the engine, the radio blared. 'SHIT!' she cursed. There were some great agvantages for saiajin hearing, but with the good come the bad. Pan quickly turned down the volume to a more bareable level. While leaving the garage and turning left, something on the radio caught her attention.

'The presidant of Capsule Corp, Trunks Breifs, has just confurmed that his realationship with Anita, is officially off after a whole week' pan turned off the radio in anger.

'Fucking hell, it's the top story if the gut does a damn shit!' yelled Pan.

Pan put the indicator to right and turned, but as she did she didn't see the drunk driver in the car coming in the opposite direction, going a million miles an hour.

The phone rand loudly at the Son's house.

'I'm coming!. Don't hang up!' called out Videl running through the kitchen, reaching out for the phone.

'Hello, videl speaking'

'Hello, Mrs Son is it?' said a strong voice

'Yes it is'

'Ok good, i'm Dr Richie from the State Hospital in the US'

'Oh hello'

'Umm yes, i really don't know how to say this' hearing this Videl felt extreamly nervous.

(i was going to stop it here but that would be mean)

'We have your daughter, Pan Son, i'm affraid that she has been in a car accident' Videl gasped and placed her hand over her mouth. She could hardly believe what she was hearing.

'I...i..is she alright?' she managed to stutter out.

'The simpilist way to say it is to say it out straight. She has amnesia' a that moment Gohan walked into the kitchen feeling his mates distress through the bond. He took a seat at the table ataring at Videl. After a few more minutes on the phone she hung up.

'Honey what is it? Is everything alright?' Gohan asked.

'No' Videl whispered 'It's Pan, shes been in a accident' at this point Videl turned around to face her husband. He had a petriffied look on his face.

'Is she alright?'

'Gohan, she has amnesia' Videl said sympathetically placing a hand on his shoulder. She knew how much Gohan loved his little girl, he was compleately devistated when she had run way six years ago.

'How?' he whispered with his head down.

'Drunk driver. He died on impact' Videl was trying to stay strong for her husband but was finding it very difficult. Gohan was close to tears.

'Does she remember anything? Anyone?' his voice was hopeful

'Trunks, she remembers Trunks., but they think that she will remember when she sees people and places she has seen' a loose tear fell down her face. Sh ecould tell that Gohan was heartbroken, because she could feel his pain through the bond. I tkilled her to see him this way.

'We can only hope' he whispered. Videl had expected a lot more than that.

'They said that everything else is fine. Shes well enough to come home already. She will be home in three days' Videl stared at her husband and gave him a hug. After a few moment they broke appart.

'I'll go and call Goyen, he will most likely be at Trunks ao i will call him there' Gohan said and went to the phone.

'Hello Trunks speaking'

'Trunks it's Gohan. Look something has happened, i really need to speak to Goten, is he there?' his voice was flat and lifeless.

'Sure Gohan, is everything alright?' Trunks asked sounding worried.

'Goten can tell you'

'Alright, one sec' Trunks placed his hand over the phone 'Goten, phone!' he yelled. Goten came running through the kitchen door with a mouthful of food. He walked up to Trunks, swallowed his food and asked 'Who is it?'

'It's Gohan, something has happened' Goten gave him a questioning look, Trunks shrugged his shoulders indicating that he didn't know. Goten look the phone off his friend and placed it to his ear.

'Gohan? what's wrong?' he asked sounding concerned. Trunks felt like he should give him some room, so he left to go up the stairs to his bedroom. He lay on his bed with his arms behind his head. Trunks thoughts went to Pan. He had never forgiven himself for that day, when he woke up to find Pan not in the bed. He paniced at what she was going to do, and she did the worst thing.....she left. Nobodt but Goten and himsel fknew the reason why she had ran away. He had made Goten promise to keep it between themselves.

trunks sat up in his bed feeling Goten's ki rise signifficantly. Trunks thought that he should go down and cheack on him but left it. Instead he reached into his top draw of his bedside table and pulled up a crumppled peice of paper. He had read it hundreds of times, feeling more guilty every time he did.

What do you do when the only person in the entire world that can stop you crying, makes you cry?

That one sentance seemed to sum up how she had felt. Trunks heard Goten walking heavily up the stairs. Light as a feather this one he thought. At that second Goten barged through the door with a compleately shocked look on his face.

'What happened Goten?'

'it's Pan' Trunks stomach did a few turns hearing that name. 'She was in a accident. She has amnesia, but the only thing that she seems to remember is...is you.' Goten's fists were clenshed, almost drawing blood from them. Trunks was compleately speachless. He couldn't breathe.

'Is she alright?' he managed to ask

'Did you just hear anything i just said?' he asked angrily

'Does she remeber the "insident"?' Trunks asked nervously.

'Apparently not' Goten said folding his arms, sitting down in Trunks desk chair.

'Do you mind if we keep it that way?'

'WHAT?' Goten screamed, ki rising even higher. 'Can't you think of anyone else but yourelf?' Trunks was taken back by that sudden outburst.

'Goten if we tell her she will run away again. Don't you think that everyone would benifit from us not telling her?' Trunks spoke with confidence in his voice

'I'm noy so sure' Goten said more calmly

'Let me put it this way' Trunks began leaning forward to put his elbows on his knees. 'If you tell Pan, i will tell Dad about the midnight visits that Bra has been receiving from you' Trunks lent up against the wall in victory. Goten's eyes were bulging out of his head.

'Y...you wouldn't?' he stuttered

'Try me' Trunks said with a grin on his face worthy of Vegeta.

'Fine' Goten hung his head in diffeat

'GREAT!!' Trunks yelled jumping up in the air with joy. He would be ablt to see Pan wothout her trying to kill him. Calming down he realised that Goten haddn't told him when he would be seein her again. 'Goten when is she getting here?'

'Three days' he said sulking from his defeat. Trunks was excited and he couldn't wait.

OKAY NOW!! next week i go back to school ( ain't it a bitch?! ) so updates will most likely be done on the weekends. SORRY!! Maybe i can get chapter 3 up before then. PLEASE REVEIW!! See ya!
