Chapter 5: Kiss.Don't Kill
She thrust her cleat up and the ball bounced off of her foot. She looked around for someone to pass to.
"Pan! Over here!" A voice called to her right. She took aim and side-kicked the ball in the direction of the caller. It was Jaime, one of her friends.
Jaime practically picked the ball up with her feet she was so good, and sprinted with it down the field to put it cleanly through the net, yelling a victory cry.
Soccer was one of Pan's favorite sports, besides karate. She loved kicking, competition, and running; it was perfect. Had she known earlier, Pan would not have said so.
For on the side of the field, the football team laughed and joked with each other and looked at all the lady soccer players. Among them was the arrogant Micah, the guy Pan had let off with just a broken nose. Jaime had been playing with the ball, and now she accidentally kicked it too high. It landed right next to Micah.
Micah looked down at his feet to see what had hit him and he motioned to his friends. Pan turned away in disgust. That was a mistake.
"Nice ass Panny!" Unfortunately this was one thing the Saiyan was not prepared for. Micah kicked the soccer ball squarely on her butt. Pan screeched and clutched it. Her face flushed with red-hot anger. All the guys were laughing, even some of the girls.
Pan was so mad she flew in a second over to where he was standing laughing red in the face and said, "Want me to break that nose of yours again Micah? I don't think many girls would go for a crooked nose and a sorry-ass attitude like yours." She walked away in a fume, glowing slightly red.
'Someday, he is really going to get it,' Pan thought, 'What goes around, comes around, as they always say, whoever they is.' At least she was going to see Trunks today, which would cheer her up a little. She could also take her anger out on him without doing any harm. Pan always felt sort of elevated when she was with him, like floating on clouds, but at the same time it was awesome. He was such a cool guy, and really fun to hang out with. Not only that, Pan had placed him on her Top Ten (if you know what I mean). She changed quickly into a pink spaghetti strap and black karate pants and Vans. She trotted out to her car, so as not to keep Trunks waiting.
Trunks saw her Beamer pull into the driveway through the window. A hot girl, and a hot car, couldn't get any better. Trunks jumped out the window and went to open the car door for her.
"Please, come this way, into my humble home." Trunks said jokingly, in a British accent.
Pan played along and responded with a lift of her hand, "Of course, my good sir."
Trunks lifted her hand and kissed it lightly. He felt a surge of energy through his body.
Pan giggled and got out of the car, her hand still in Trunks'. She grabbed her bag, slung it over her shoulder, and shut the door. They made their way to the front door, which was absolutely gargantuan. Trunks opened the gate, and they were let in.
Once inside, Pan marveled at the finery of the house. She had been in here before, but she had been younger. There were marble staircases and grand curtains covering the huge windows at the top of the staircase. It looked out onto a beautiful private lake that seemed more like a painted photograph. Pan gasped and ran her hand along the head of a lion at the stair's base.
Trunks said in response to her reaction, "There's no one here, would you like to slide down on it?" He had a grin on, one much like when he was about to do something insane. Pan nodded eagerly and grinned back.
They ran to the top and Trunks went first, sliding all the way down yelling in delight. Pan perched at the top, waiting for him to stop at the bottom. He motioned to her once he was safely on the ground, "C'mon Pan-chan!"
Pan counted to three then let herself slide easily down the banister, screaming happily all the way. Another unexpected thing happened. Trunks caught her like a baby, one arm under her knees and the other around her shoulders. They both laughed and Pan felt a burst of energy and excitement. Trunks set her down and Pan said, "That was so much fun!" in a sort of girlish way. She became serious and said, "Now we have to train." But the seriousness didn't last long. She burst out laughing once more and Trunks joined in.
They proceeded out to the backyard, which was more like a park with a lake in the center. The wind whipped about them and Pan and Trunks both wondered how they would start. He started stretching and Pan followed suit. That done, they both stood opposite each other, wondering what to do next.
"What should we do now?" Pan asked.
"I suppose we should start," Trunks said dumbly back.
"Okay." And Pan came in with a series of kicks and punches, aiming for the chest. Trunks blocked them and came at her. Pan ducked and swerved and soon they both hovered into the air, moving fast like fast-forwarding a movie. Pan landed a punch on Trunks' cheek. He touched it then zoomed backwards, and charged up.
He turned a glaring yellow and his eyes flickered and changed to blue. His hair flared up as if coming to life and glowed gold.
"Hey! That's not fair!" Pan yelled at him, slightly annoyed because she couldn't become even a Super Saiyan yet. Trunks ignored her and came at he once more, only this time ten times faster, harder, and much more accurate. He grounded a punch into her stomach and Pan gasped for breath, hunching over.
Trunks took the chance and went behind her and put her in a full nelson. He soared with her higher into the air then suddenly dropped her.
Pan regained her breath and stopped her fall midway to the ground. She flew at him and tackled him in the air. Trunks laughed and Pan grew angry. 'Why is he laughing at me?' Pan didn't wait for an answer and pushed him harder until they were over the lake.
Trunks turned the tables on her and grabbed her, pulling them both toward the calm water of the lake. "Don't forget to hold your breath Pan!" He hollered at her in the screaming wind.
Pan last words before plummeting into the lake were, "Trunks! You better not!" But he did. They crashed into the crystal blue water and sunk down. The bubbles cleared and Trunks could now see Pan's sharp features softened under the water. She looked back at his flaming hair and hated him for throwing her in, but loved it at the same time.
Pan reached her arms around as if to hug him, and Trunks welcomed it. But Pan had a trick up her sleeve as well. Embracing him, she hefted with all her strength, the surprised blue-eyed man before her up out of the water.
They hurtled towards the shore, and upon getting there, they both landed side by side on the ground soaked and gasping for breath.
"I can believe you just--." But she was cut short by the usual grin on Trunks' lips as he leaned forward and planted a sweet kiss squarely on Pan's gaping mouth. Her ears were muted to all but the sweet music of the kiss.
Hold me now
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
That maybe six feet
Ain't so far down
She was taken aback but not thoroughly surprised and she leaned more into it. Her eyes were closed as Trunks broke the lip-lock.
"Kiss me again please," she whispered dreamily. Trunks put a finger to her mouth to quiet her and kissed her once more. This one was shorter, but just as tasty.
Pan opened her eyes and lay down on the bright, fresh grass under her. Trunks did the same, except putting his hands under his head. They gazed up at the sky and clouds for a while, in comfortable silence. The sun smiled down on them and no words were needed. Trunks shifted so his hand covered hers in a sweet, pleasant way.
Pan could have stayed like this for the rest of the day, but they couldn't. Trunks eventually led her back up to the mansion where they had a drink and said their goodbyes.
At the front door Pan gave Trunks a swift kiss on the cheek and squeezed his hand before letting herself out.
Trunks watched her drive away and he knew many questions would soon pop up. But at the moment, the only legitimate word going through his mind was, 'Wow.'
