Chapter 18

Pan and Trunks walked arm and arm together to the center of the grand ballroom, Pan had suddenly began to wonder how the ballroom would look if there were dozens of people in it dancing to the music with them, 'It would be so beautiful.'

The music was a classic ballroom dance and once Pan and Trunks reached the center of the ballroom they faced each other. Trunks was more nervous then he had ever been, for he hadn't danced in thirteen years and he was hoping he still knew how.

Pan was just as nervous, not because she didn't know how to dance but because of who she was dancing with. The beast standing before her made her feel so strange in the best of ways and it excited and scared her all at once and she didn't want to mess up the dance.

Vegeta, Gohan, Goten, Bra, ChiChi, Goku and Videl all looked on from a distance, hoping and praying everything would be alright.

"Come on Trunks you can do it, dance with her." Bra said eagerly.

"Don't choke now." Goten said watching the two.

Slowly and carefully Trunks slipped his large paw behind Pan's waist and took her hand into his other paw, Pan with her other hand lifted the side of her gown up a bit so that she wouldn't trip. Their eyes were locked onto each other and they both smiled, then with one graceful step they began to dance.

Pan felt as if she was floating on air, he led her so gracefully.

'Who would've though that a beast could be so graceful and gentle.' She thought as they danced.

'I have never felt this way before. I feel like anything is possible with Pan here, I never want to lose her.' He thought as they continued to glide across the floor.

Soon the dance was over and they broke apart to eat.

The Beast took out Pan's chair for her and let her sit down before pushing her towards the table gently; he then took a seat for himself across the table. More music from nowhere began playing as their food appeared before them.

Trunks looked over at Pan who was delicately eating and Trunks then looked down at his plate and at the fork and knife.

'I don't think I can do this.' He thought.

Trunks hadn't eaten at a table in years, nor had he used utensils since he was turned into a beast.

Bra walked over and sat beside Trunks.

"Go on Trunks, eat." Bra whispered, so Pan wouldn't hear.

Trunks looked down at Bra with his eyes not moving his head, "Its kind of hard to eat utensils as a beast Bra." He mumbled.

Bra frowned, "Oh please, you can do it…go on!"

Trunks sighed and looked back at his utensils then he looked up at Pan who smiled up at him and then quickly continued eating, 'I can do this, I hope I can do this, please let me do this.' He thought desperately as he nervously grabbed the fork.

Pan tried so hard to not look at the beast, what was wrong with her? Could she really have these feelings for him? For a beast?

She then looked up at him and saw him carefully and slowly put the fork in his mouth, she giggled at the site.

Pan then realized that this was the first time the beast was eating with her for dinner and it made her feel wonderful inside, she felt herself blushing and her heart beating quick…'I can't believe this is happening.'

Trunks looked as Pan ate, he noticed her cheeks looking slightly pink and his heart nearly stopped at how beautiful she looked, 'If only I was a man again.'

*******************************************************************

In the outside world winter had been on for two months already and Kamon and his men were making their way through the forest accompanied by Mr. Satan, Cristina, Catherine and Lora.

Mr. Satan was growing ill, due to the weather and the heartache of losing Pan. The traveling was also putting a strain on him and Kamon didn't seem to care, despite how much Catherine, Cristina and Lora told him that they needed to head back, Kamon never let them. It got to a point where Kamon had held them against their will unfeeling towards Mr. Satan's condition. They were three days journey from the castle now, and night had fallen upon them and they decided to stop for the night.

Mr. Satan and his nieces sat together by the fire, wrapped in blankets. Catherine then saw Kamon walk behind a tent and she curiously followed him, leaving the others still by the fire.

Catherine heard the voice of Kamon within the tent and she stood beside it listening intently, "In three days we should reach the castle, kill all inside, leave the beast to me and get Pan out."

"Kamon, Mr. Satan is growing very ill, perhaps we should send him and his nieces back." Said one of his men.

"Not when we're so close! If he dies so be it, his life doesn't matter to me." Kamon replied coldly.

"What of his nieces?"

"Ravage them, do whatever you want with them I don't care." Kamon replied.

Tears began to fill Catherine's eyes, what have they done?

********************************************************************

Trunks and Pan soon finished their meal and Pan suddenly had the urge to dance again, she got up from her seat, Trunks looked at her curiously as she walked over to him. His heart began to race as she smiled down at him and took his paws into her hands and pulled him out of his chair and over to the ballroom dance floor to dance again.

They glided around the floor as if they were floating on clouds, they danced so well together and this time they were confident about it.

Bra and everyone looked on hopeful, perhaps today could be the day, perhaps today they will be human again.

"What do you think guys? Do you think the spell could be broken by tonight?" Goku asked eagerly.

"I think its possible, but you never know." Bra replied.

"If anyone can do this its my daughter." Gohan said as he watched Pan and Trunks dance.

"Why couldn't your daughter have arrived at the palace a day sooner, that way she'd be an object or animal like the rest of us and then some other girl not of your blood could break the spell?" Vegeta said with a huff.

Gohan glared at Vegeta and hopped right in front of him, "If that were the case do you really think the spell could be broken?"

Vegeta scoffed, "It isn't broken yet so in that case--."

"Oh stop fighting you two! Honestly, two kids you are. We should celebrate the fact that are children could be wed." Videl blurted.

"Hey look they're going outside!" Goten said.

**********************************************************************

Trunks led Pan onto a balcony that overlooked the front of the castle, the moon was full high above them and the sky was plastered with thousands of sparkling stars.

'Its now or never Trunks.' He thought nervously as he and Pan sat down on a bench.

"Uh, Pan?" He said in a raspy growl.

Pan unaffected by the sound smiled at him, "Yes?"

"Did you have a good time tonight?" He asked searching her eyes for the answer.

Pan nodded, "Yes, I had a wonderful time."

'Alright, Trunks now you have to ask her, you can do it.'
