Chapter 8: Stars in the Sky
"Now boarding: Tokyo, Japan to Richmond, Virginia, United States of America. First class passengers please have your tickets ready at the check." The monotone voice boomed across Section B-13 at the National Airport of Japan.
It was really a family reunion. They must have booked a quarter of the plane to accommodate all of the Son's friends and family. There was of course Goku and Chi-chi, and their offspring, Goten, who had brought his girlfriend, Gohan, Videl, and Pan. Bulma and Vegeta were there, with their own children, Trunks and Bra. Krillin, Marron, and the pregnant 18 had met them at the airport.
So they were quite a sight, what with all the breakfast sandwiches the men had bought and were chowing down on. 18, Videl, and Chi-chi were conversing about airplane tickets and the time they were to arrive in California. They would stop in Virginia once with a layover of two hours, and it being six- thirty in the morning, they would not actually arrive there until sometime the next day.
Bra, Marron, and Pan were having their own little chat, and were delighted to see each other after such a long time. They hadn't been together since Marron's family had moved away, nearly over a year ago. They all dismissed the announcement over the loudspeaker, as they were certainly not first class.
"So, Pan, I hear you and Trunks are pretty close," Marron said with a flip of her neatly trimmed, short, blonde hair.
Pan gave a little humph and an accusing glare over at Bra. Bra giggled and then laughed. "Ya, I guess you could say that." But Pan couldn't help the grin that spread over her lips.
"Tell us everything," Marron said, and they all huddled in close, and Pan told them all about their first kiss and Trunks walking in on her in the locker room.
"That is so romantic!" Bra said, her eyes wide.
"Have you guys been on a date yet?" Marron inquired.
"Not yet, but when we do.." Pan trailed off, imagining them making out, Trunks' hand on her hip.
But her daydream was cut short by the announcement of their rows.
"Rows 23 through 33 now boarding. Please have your tickets ready."

Everyone stumbled out of the walkway and collapsed in the terminal seats. They were currently in Virginia, their first flight over, and all extremely exhausted. Little groups of the 14 people went off in their own direction, heading for their preferred refreshments and the bathrooms. The airport was practically empty save for the Japan flight.
Eventually, the tired group went to Terminal C to wait off the remaining hour and a half layover. Goku was well asleep by the time they were ready to board. This flight was smaller, with only half as much people on this flight than the last. So the seats were in twos and the girls were deciding where to sit.
"I'm taking a-a-a-a window, guys," Bra yawned as she spoke and plopped into the seat. Marron sat next to her. Goten was seated with his girlfriend, and the couples together. This left Trunks and Pan. Pan blushed as she looked at her remaining passenger. Trunks grinned and said, "After you," using his hand to gesture toward the window seat.
"Thanks," she replied, gathering her courage and sitting in the seat. She was overtired and her brain was only half working.
Once everyone was settled the plane took off into the night sky, the stars twinkling merrily as Pan gazed out the window. Clouds suddenly obscured her vision and she judged it was time to sleep.
"I'm so tired," she said half to herself. Trunks heard her and put the armrest up. Pan undid her seat belt and not thinking, practically fell into Trunks' muscular arms. They fell asleep like that together, both at peace, nothing to worry about. Pan murmured a good night and Trunks kissed her softly on the lips. That was when they both fell into a mutual slumber.
~I'm looking down now that it's over
Reflecting on all of my mistakes
I thought I found the road to somewhere
Somewhere in His grace~
"Gohan, look," Videl said, nudging her husband awake and pointing. "Isn't that sweet? They look so peaceful and happy together."
Gohan rubbed his eyes and looked in the way his wife was pointing. Was that Trunks and Pan sleeping together? He stiffened a little but relaxed when Videl put a hand on his arm. "Imagine that, Gohan. Trunks and Pan."
