KameMaster: Thanks for all the reviews. I took some advice and made my story a little longer, and changed the plot a little, too. Hope you like it!

Disclaimer: Sure. Whatever.

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

Last time, Pan was excited about seeing her old friends at high school. As she arrived, she found Trunks, but Goten and Bulla were missing! What does this mean? Read on to find out!

Pan and Trunks casually walked to school.

"Where the heck are Goten and Bulla?" Pan wondered. "Goten never gets sick; I haven't even seem him catch a cold! And Bulla wouldn't miss this!"

Eventually, they reached the school doors and walked in. Groups of three or four people were standing around talking, but Pan had more important things to do than chat with Trunks.

"Hey, Trunks!" Pan said. "I'm gonna see if I can find Goten or Bulla."

"I wouldn't," Trunks replied. "It's 7:25. School starts in 5 minutes."

"Oh, right," Pan said. "I have P.E in first period. Well, bye!"

Pan assumed Trunks had study had biology first thing since he was walking in that direction.

She entered the Gymnasium and heard and loud voice shout, "Welcome to your first day of Gym Class!"

A muscular man in his early 30's was standing at the front of the gym. "I'll be your gym teacher, Mr. Zorf." A few people started giggling, but everyone else remained silent.

"Let's cut to the chase. We'll be starting you off this morning with the climbing rope. It is attached 30 feet above the ground," Mr. Zorf explained. "Do we have any volunteers to go first?"

A few hands shot up, but Pan decided not to go. Mr. Zorf looked around and pointed to Pan. "How 'bout this young lady right here?"

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

A few minutes later, Mr. Zorf had lowered the rope and Pan began to climb. She did better than she thought she could.

"Wow, this is easy!" Pan thought. She passed the 15 feet mark. the 20. she suddenly stopped.

The rope had begun swaying a little under her weight. It was probably made with un-athletic types in mind.

People down below began shouting things.

"Hey, what's going on?"

"I thought Pan was good at this!"

Pan closed her eyes, trying to hold back tears.

"It's those scientific types. They can't do anything athletic."

"Yeah, and her father is a professional scientist."

"And rumor is her Grandpa's that Mr. Satan guy."

"That dork?"

Pan couldn't take it any longer. Suddenly, there were gasps from down below, then silence.

She opened her eyes. and saw that she was surrounded by golden energy! "What the heck?" She pulled back a few strands of hair and saw they had turned blonde!

"I did it!" Pan thought. "Just like Dad and Grandpa, I became a Super Saiyan!" She climbed the rest of the way up the rope, then back down.

When she reached the ground, her classmates started screaming and running. "Quick! Someone call 9-1-1!" Mr. Zorf shouted. People started taking out their cell phones and quickly punching the buttons.

Kids from other classes peeked into the gymnasium, but they just gasped and ran like the others. But, there was one boy who did not. Instead he said, "Pan?"

Pan looked and saw that it was Trunks! "Pan, you went Super Saiyan!" Trunks said amazed. He entered the gymnasium. "Wow!"

Suddenly, sirens could be heard all throughout the school. "The cops!" Pan cried. "The..." Trunks began to say, but Pan interrupted. "After I went Super Saiyan, everyone got freaked out, and someone called the cops!"

Pan grabbed Trunks and said, "Quick, Trunks! How do I return to normal?" Trunks started to say something, but a familiar voice filled the air.

"Don't worry, boys! There's no need to take out your guns! You've got the World Martial Arts Champion by your side!" Mr. Satan ran into the gym and began to say, "Alight you yellow hared demon! Un-hand that. Pan?" Pan let go of Trunks and said, "Grandpa?"

At least 6 cops stormed into the gym. "Don't hurt her! She's my granddaughter, and she hasn't committed any crimes, anyway!" The cops were surprised. "That's your granddaughter?" one asked.

"Well, isn't that what I just said?" Mr. Stan asked. "You guys can go now. There's nothing wrong about a girl with yellow hair and green eyes."

The police force nodded and exited quickly. Mr. Stan turned to Pan and Trunks. "Pan, what did you do?" Pan shrugged. "I went Super Saiyan I guess."

"I was climbing that rope," Pan said pointing at the rope, but I got nervous. Everyone started making fun of me and the next thing I knew I was a Super Saiyan."

She turned to Trunks. "How do I return to normal?" Trunks thought for a minute and said, "I'm not really sure. You just kinda lose power, I guess."

"Okay, then," Pan said. She tried to lower her Power Level, but she remained Super Saiyan. "It's no use Trunks," Pan sighed. "I'll be like this forever."

"Um. I have a suggestion," Mr. Satan said quietly. Pan and Trunks quickly looked at him. "What is it?" They asked in unison.

"Well, try being cheerful," he said. "You have to be angry to become a Super Saiyan, right? So, the opposite of angry is cheerful." He shrugged. "It don't know. Just try it."

Pan nodded, but suddenly paused. "What can I bee happy about?" she asked herself. "You can happy you found me," Trunks said. "Or you can be happy that you went Super Saiyan," Mr. Satan suggested. "Or you can be happy your not a jail bird," Trunks said.

Pan shot him a look. "Just a joke," he said nervously.

"I'll try one of those things," Pan said. She focused on meeting Trunks again. They hadn't seen each for years, but now that had reunited. And, she went Super Saiyan. Now, she was just like Trunks, Goten, and her father.

"Pan, you're doing it!" She could hear Trunks' voice speaking to her. She opened her eyes and found that she was no longer Super Saiyan.

"Alight! Thanks, Grandpa," Pan said hugging her grandfather. Mr. Satan patted Pan on the back. "You're welcome," he said.

"Hercule, you've done it again!" he thought. "Even when the World Martial Arts Champion is an old geezer, he's still got it!"

Suddenly, a voice boomed over the loud speaker. "Attention. Due to certain affairs today, school will be closed. All staff and students please leave the building. That is all."

"Shoot!" Pan said snapping her fingers. "Now they canceled school. on the first day!"

"Plus, we still haven't seen Goten or Bulla," Trunks added.

For a while there was silence, until Mr. Satan said, "I think you two better be leaving like all the other kids."

"Okay," Pan said. "Ditto," Trunks replied. The two walked out, but Mr. Satan stood for a while, but eventually left.

Now that Pan has new Super Saiyan powers, she's more powerful than ever. But where are Goten and Bulla? And what new surprises wait for Pan and Trunks? Find out next time in "Pan in Shadows."

Next time: A bank robbery plan is executed, and Pan decides to take her new Super Saiyan powers for a spin. But, her courage leads her too a gruesome fate no one expected! Next time!
