DESTINY OF THE COUPLES 9

"Hello princess." I said to Trunks as he came outside, he muttered something under his breath. "Shut up and let's get to sparring." he said. Then he smirked. " I have an idea. If I win, I get the pictures. If you win you'll keep the pictures, but don't count on it." "What makes you think I would give you the pictures if you win?" He looked troubled by this. "Pan, nevermind the freakin bet! That capsule is probably going to fall out of your training bra because of your flat chest!" Pan fumed at these words. "I'm not wearing a training bra! I'm wearing a sports bra, and yes I do have boobs!" "I highly doubt that." "BAKA! DIE!!!!" Pan aimed a kick for his head. He grabbed her foot and twisted it. Pan howled in pain but then used her other foot to kick him in the head. Trunks also stopped that so Pan did a back handspring out of his grasp. By now all the kids went outside to watch. Bulma and Chi Chi came in the door way and groaned: 'not again'. Vegeta and Goku, who were training until the cake came out, felt the energy levels rise between their kids and went outside to watch the match. Pan and Trunks stood in a fighting pose. Each were preparing for the other to do something. So Trunks took his chance and fired a ki ball at her. Pan stopped it with another ki ball aimed at him but Trunks shoved it out of the way and flew down to punch Pan in the ribs. Pan wasn't expecting this and got full-force. She stepped back in pain. But then quickly recovered and elbowed Trunks in the gut which made him wheeze for air. Then Pan did a high kick to his head and he fell back. Faster than he had fallen, Trunks got up in time for Pan to fire a Kamehaha blast at him which hit him dead on. Pan felt really powerful, so she fired shot after shot of ki blast at him which created a huge smoke screen. "Had enough yet?" Pan laughed. "Didn't even feel it. " Trunks said from behind her. Then he grabbed Pan's arms in back of her. "Say Uncle!" "No.....way!" She struggled. "Hey! You're looking down my dress you sicko!" "I am not!" Trunks argued. "There's nothing to look at!" "How would YOU know, have you stared at my chest before and assumed I had nothing there?!" "NO! There you go, ranting about how you think I'm attracted to you again." "Obviously I couldn't think you were attracted to me because you are down-right MEAN to me! Now let me go!" "Will you give me the pictures?" "NEVER!" "Then I'm going to have to pull your arms back until you do." He squeezed her arms back, but Pan's pride wouldn't allow her to say it every time he squeezed harder. She grinded her teeth and stood her ground. Trunks was starting to get worried. 'Her arms are going to break if she doesn't say anything.' he thought. "Obviously this plan of yours isn't working!" Pan sneered. "You won't give up? Fine, I hate to do it. But I'm getting those capsules!" He put one arm around Pan's arms and proceeded to use the free one. Thinking that she would freely give up the pictures he held out his arm warningly. "You wouldn't dare." She said. "Why wouldn't I?" "Because my dad and everybody else is out here watching. Reach down my bra and everyone will know you're a pervert." Pan said calmy. Trunks growled very loudly. "Pan....." Trunks was seething in anger. "One way or the other, " he bent his head down by her ears and wispered, "I'm going to get those photo's." Then he let go of her and flew back down. Pan floated a second but then saw Vegeta and Goku and flew towards them. "Your son is sick Vegeta!" Pan said to him. Vegeta shrugged. "Brat, my son is the prince. He can do whatever he wants." he said simply. "Dad!" Pan said to Goku, cuz she couldn't believe what she was hearing. "Vegeta, she's right. You're son can't go and reach down my daughter's shirt, that's disgusting." Goku said. Vegeta rolled his eyes. "I didn't bring up the brat. His mother did. Talk to her." Vegeta grunted. Pan stomped over to Bulma. "Bulma, that son of yours needs to learn some manners before I have to beat the-" Chi Chi stopped her. "Language, Pan, language!" "You saw what he was proceeding to do out there." Pan said. "I'll talk to him Pan. But he's 17 and there are a lot of guys out there like that." Bulma said, as if reaching down a girls shirt was a normal, everyday thing for guys. Pan, again, couldn't believe what she was hearing and left to go in and eat cake. 'Parent's these days! They are so oblivious to everything that's happening around them!' Pan thought. All the kids were inside, Bra was at the head of the table and the birthday song began. Bra blew out the candles and cut the cake once, then she made the servant do the rest. Pan sat next to Bra's seat and Trunks sat across from her, Goten was on the right side of Pan and didn't notice the death glares going on between the two because he was busy eating. Trunks gave a kick to Pan's shin after she flipped him off. "That hurt like a bitch you dick!" Pan mouthed. Trunks gave a victory smile. *ahem* "Time for the presents. will everyone pass the presents up to me, please?" Bra said sweetly, once everyone was done eating. Pan passed her present to Bra. Bra opened the blue wrapping paper and squealed. It was the picture of Bra and Goten kissing with a note. The note said: Dear Bra. I decided not to black mail you anymore, on one condition: You will never EVER make me wear a dress and make up again. Love Pan. P.S: You're brother is an asshole. Bra gave Pan a hug and opened Trunks present. Trunks had given her perfume. Then Bra opened Goten's gift and he gave her a charm bracelet. She smiled at him which made him blush nervously. Soon, Bra opened all the presents and announced to everyone that it was time to go. My mom allowed me to spend the night when I asked her. So Bra and I went upstairs to see all the presents she got. "Pan, your present, next to Goten's, was the best one." Bra said. "Ah, I figured you'd want that picture." "Aren't you nervous?" "Huh?" "About staying here. Aren't you afraid my brother will try something again?" "Nah. He's not that much stronger than me." Bra looked at her worriedly. "One of these days, Pan, someone is going to bust that ego of yours." Bra muttered. Pan couldn't hear her.

*Trunk's P.O.V*

I'm pacing my room, trying to think of anything to get that film. Pan is so stubborn! Why does she have to make everything more complicated? And putting the film down her shirt, she knew she would get away with that one. Well, Son Pan, I'm impressed. You're the first female I've had trouble dealing with. Surprisingly, she doesn't find me attractive at all. In fact, I think she despises me. Maybe I shouldn't have been mean to her all those years, but, it would have taken the fun out teasing with her. Ya, I have to admit, it was kinda hentai to try and reach down her shirt.....but I couldn't let anyone see those pictures! Well, tonight, I have an opportunity, she's staying the night. Now to think of what to do...... "Trunks!" My mom yelled out my door. I opened it. "What is it mom?" I asked. "How dare you! You're 17, and you're reaching down girl's shirts! I thought I rasied you better than that!" She shreaked. "Mom, relax. She took pictures and then put the film in her bra, I desperatly need those pictures to keep my reputation!" "And you would reach down a girl's bra to get them?!" "If the situation was desperate enough.....yes. But the situation was desperate!" "Did you even bother to ask her for the film?!" "Yes, and I threatned to break her arms" my mom shot me a death look, " but nothing would work so I pretended like I was going to get the capsules." My mom shook her head, then sighed. "What has made you two loathe each other so much." "Mom, I don't even remember that. She's such a smart-ass, it really annoys me. And when a female gets out of line and adresses me of all people, like that, you can bet I would get angry." "There you go again, acting like you're higher than woman! You're just like your father, Trunks! You thought all woman were supposed to be on your every command but woman have a right to speak for themselves too. What, are you mad that Pan isn't the sort of woman to be woo'ed by you?" she stated. I sat speechless. Come to think of it, now that she's said it, it did make me sound like an ass. "I suppose. But still, she wouldn't give me the pictures back and I tried to do everything I could and when it came to that last resort, I had no other choice!" I said, sounding very much like a child. "I'm going to settle this. You two need to talk! After dinner, meet me in the Royal Room. You and Pan are going to settle this like civalized peop-sayjins. If you two even start sparring, you both are going to pay for the damages!" And with a huff she left the room.

*Bulma's P.O.V*

I think I settled that well. Now all I have to do is see if my plan works. Honestly, Pan and Trunks shouldn't be fighting like this. They should be like brother and sister, not enemys. I walked to Bra's room and told Pan what I told Trunks and left the room before she could say anything. I wonder what Vegeta will think about this? So I went to talk to him in the training room. He looked disturbed when I entered the room. "What is it?" He asked. "You know how Pan and Trunks don't seem to get along, right? Well, I heard the story from Trunks that she took pictures of him that could ruin his reputation so I did the noblest thing a woman could do." "And that would be?" "They are going to talk it over. What do you think about that?" "You should have just left them to beat the shit out of each other. That would teach them a lesson." "Vegeta! fighting won't solve anything. I've also discovered Trunks acts a lot like you when you were younger. You both think of yourselves as too high for woman." "What's wrong with that?" "ERRRR! You better teach your son to respect woman, or you won't get an ounce of sleep because I'll be screaming at you all night! Poor Pan probably feels violated by Trunks's behavior." "Fine, I'll talk to the boy! Now get out." I smiled triumphantly.

*Ominous Review @ Dinner*

Pan was beyond mad. Try and have a cival conversation, with him! That was impossible. On the other side of her, Trunks was thinking the same thing. Dinner went by pretty slowly. Pan wouldn't even look at Trunks.Which Trunks found, odd. 'Geesh Pan, you're pissed. Maybe today is the day, I tell her how I feel. She is certainly not like any other girl, she impresses me. I just hope she doesn't get freaked out or make it impossible to talk to her.' thought Trunks.

*************************************************************** *A/N* All these acts of meaness were out of respect for Pan, odd huh? Makes the story interesting, ne? Next chapter: Pan and Trunks-er-talk. Maybe......they might get together?
