Sorry for not updating in over a week.  I was on vacation in South Padre Island, and then later in Mexico.  Got a nice tan now, though.  Changed the section breaks for this chapter, gonna try and keep it original, if anyone else cared.  Anyway, thanks to all who review, as usual (I almost wrote update, hehe.  But I mean that one, too). Clarifying the age thing, again, Pan is 7, like Goten (which I stated in the first chapter, I think), and Mirai Trunks is 21.  I'm keeping the 14-year age difference for purposes in later chapters, so Gohan isn't M. Trunks' age.  I know that Mirai looked like a teenager in the Cell Games, but he's 20 or something now, to fit my story.  Here's the next chapter.

DODS - (me) Don't Own, (you) Don't Sue.

Hoshi No Chibi

Sanity Slowly Slips

The now red-faced quarter Saiyan struggled, trying to free herself from her "grandmother's" death grip.  Normally, Chi-Chi wouldn't have been able to hold on as tightly to any Saiyan, but when it came to grandchildren, all un-broken laws of physics found themselves breaking.

"Mommy...you're strangling her," Goten whined, trying to get his mother off of Pan.  Once Bulma had told Chi-Chi of her future grandchild, the black-haired mother forgot about everything else, including the fact that her eldest child was missing.

"Goten's right, Chi-Chi.  You need to let her go so she can breathe," Bulma stated.  Then, smirking to herself, she added," Unless, of course, you want to injure her..."

"Heavens, no!" Chi-Chi exclaimed, releasing the girl.  Kissing Pan on the cheek, she continued," I'm sorry, sweetie, I was just surprised to find that my future baby has a baby.  This is so wonderful.  I'm going to have to start planning a wedding for my little Gohan.  There's going to be lots of flowers..."

Goten, Trunks, Pan, and Bulma just sweatdropped as Chi-Chi continued ranting on about how perfect Gohan's wedding would be.  Fed up with his friend's mother, Trunks said," Mirai Gohan's wife may not even exist in this universe, since it's different than the Mirai one."

The demi-Saiyan's seemingly harmless comment busted Chi-Chi's little happy bubble.

"How dare you say that!?" Chi-Chi and Bulma both screamed as the younger woman whacked him over the head with her frying pan.  Although Bulma wasn't quite up to the level of excitement that Chi-Chi was at, it didn't mean that she wasn't happy about the prospect of Gohan and his children.

"Yeah," Pan added, nodding her head," I already saw Mom."

"Cool!  Does my brother know her?" Goten asked while his mother got hearts in her eyes again.

Before Pan could answer, M. Trunks and Vegeta walked into the room, the younger male looking a lot more beaten up than the father.  Vegeta snorted in disgust when he saw Chi-Chi smiling to herself and planning out her older child's entire future, while Mirai looked a little unnerved.

"Uh...Panny?" Mirai said to the young girl," You didn't tell them who both of your parents were, did you?"

Pan shook her head in the negative as Chi-Chi began cooing over the child," So you're name is Panny?  No, that can't be it...Panny's your nickname, huh?  Which means your name is Pan."  The woman smiled again, then continued," That definitely makes sense.  So..."

"Your future self is so cool looking, Trunks," Goten chirped, pulling at Mirai's ripped jacket.

"Well obviously," his lavender-haired friend replied, beaming with pride.

"So tell me, Mirai, why don't you want us to know who the father of Pan is?" Bulma asked.

"Who cares," Vegeta grunted," What matters is that I get food, Onna."

Bulma glared at her mate, and the two would have started another round of verbal sparring, had not the growling of the two Mirai's stomachs been made.

"Little Panny is hungry, aren't you?" Chi-Chi asked the girl.  But before Pan could reply, her "grandmother" dragged her out of the room and towards the kitchen, fixed on getting food the quarter Saiyan's stomach.

"I could go for some food, too," Mirai said as he followed the two out of the room, with Vegeta and Chibi Trunks behind him, Vegeta only interested in filling his stomach while Chibi wanted to learn more about his older self.  Bulma, not one to be left behind, exited the room after her "extended" family, also glad to be out of the Toy Room.

"But where's Brother?" Goten asked sadly to no one.  Before he began searching for Gohan's ki, his own tummy rumbled.  Running towards the kitchen, he forgot about his older brother and instead fixated himself with thoughts of his mom's delicious cooking.

"Gohan, what a pleasant surprise.  Why are you here?  Um...Gohan?" Mr. Popo greeted politely, but then stopped when he saw the look on the young boy's face.  It looked as though the teen was out for blood.

"Don't worry, Mr. Popo," Gohan replied, gritting his teeth," I'm just going to have a little talk with an old...friend..."

The jolly ol' black man just took a few steps back after seeing that Gohan's left eye was twitching.

"Gohan," Piccolo stated sternly, flying up to the teen.  Mr. Popo took this as his chance to get away from Gohan.  There is one thing Mr. Popo has learned after getting to know the Z Senshi, and that is to get as far away from a ticked off Saiyan as possible.

"Where's Dende?" Gohan demanded of his sensei," I need to ask him exactly why he has deemed it necessary to TORTURE me!"

"Calm down Gohan," Piccolo scolded," He, as well as a few other Kami's and Kai's held a...get-together, of sorts.  Unfortunately, Nameks have very little tolerance of alcohol, and Dende ended up having one too many Herc Lite's...I think you get the picture." [1]

"So where is he?" Gohan asked, his anger fading away after picturing a drunken Dende.

"In a re-hab center on the Grand Kai's planet.  Unfortunately, when he first left, the planet wasn't being controlled by anyone," the Namek replied.

"Okay.  Um...Can I stay here for a while, or at least for the night?  I don't really feel like being around my mom now that my- I mean Mirai me's daughter is here," Gohan said, blushing.

"Do what you wish," Piccolo stated, walking away.  In other words, Gohan was welcome to stay.

Videl trudged back up the stairs, both frustrated and tired from the day's turn of events.  She reached her room, and slammed her door, just trying to make herself feel better.  It didn't help, unfortunately.  The crime fighter did all the bed time junk everyone does, like brush her teeth, and got into bed, intent on getting a decent amount of sleep.

What seemed like hours later, Videl turned to her side and looked at the clock.  The time 10:37 glowed red in the darkness.  She grumbled, and tried to get to sleep.

"This is all that Saiya-jerk's fault!  If he wouldn't have grabbed me, I'd be asleep by now!" the raven-haired teen spat, it now only been five minutes later than when she last checked.

Stop fooling yourself.  You know you liked it…

"Like hell I did!"

Whatever, girl.  Just get some sleep so we can see Gohan sooner.

"I don't like him either!  For Dende's sake, please just shut-up!"

I can't be quieted, since I am you.  But liking two guys at once…

Tired of arguing with herself, Videl turned on her Super Deluxe Mega Awesome Stereo 3000 and turned the volume up loud enough to where she couldn't hear herself think.

Needless to say, Videl didn't get much sleep.

Only one footnote this time...

[1] - Mr. Satan is going to endorse and promote himself like crazy in this fic.  Instead of Bud Lite, it's Herc Lite.  Y'know, Herc-ule...Herc...Never mind.

Once again, I'm sorry for being so late with the update.  Would've made it longer, but I had to write it as soon as I could in one night.  I promised myself I would always update at least once a week, and I already screwed myself over.  Um, the title will make more sense later (I hope...) and I'm gonna have a really stupid bad guy/girl show up soon.  Next Chapter will involve the crime fighting duo's mini adventure at Orange Star High School, Mirai Trunks teaching- not gym or science- class, and...The Great Saiyakids help stop crime?  Hehe.  Always trying for something new.  And the Mr. Satan leaving thing will be gone into more detail.  So, next chapter will probably be huge if I try to add everything.  Review and I will try very hard to update sooner.
