DESTINY OF THE COUPLES 19

*A/N*

The ball is in this....at the end. But I had to add a lot of stuff before the ball!

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

"Pan! Telephone!" Chi Chi yelled to her daughter at 7 in the morning.

"Who would be calling this early?" asked Pan to herself. But she picked up her phone in her room and found it was Bra.

"You should eat and come over here. We've got to get ready." said Bra in a chirpy voice.

"It's 7 in the morning. And you're lucky my mom's a morning person otherwise she would have been pissed off at you." said Pan grumpily.

"Good morning to you to." Went on Bra, ignoring the comment. "We have early planning. Just come over after you eat."

"Whatever." Pan hung up the phone and sleepily stood up and stretched before going into the dining room where Chi Chi was still cooking breakfast. Chi Chi was always the one up, cooking for breakfast, and then came Goten and Goku who could detect food a long distance away.

"Morning Pan. What did Bra have to say?" Her mother asked, frying the huge amount of eggs in a rather large frying pan.

"I have to go over there, Bra needs to get me dressed and ready." replied Pan.

"Ah. When does it start? 6?"

"Yes. But I don't understand why I would have to be there at this early in the morning."

Suddenly Goten and Goku arrived in the room. And automatically sat at the table with forks raised. Chi Chi then piled the food on plates in front of the 3 hungry sayjins and she herself sat down as well, only to finish last.

"Bye guys. I'm off to the ball. Be there around 5, k Goten?" said Pan from the door.

"Ya, I'll be there." said Goten.

"Bye Pan! Good luck!" said Goku.

Pan waved and flew off to the castle in front of Bra's window. Bra opened her window, allowing Pan in.

"Pan, I advise you take a shower first." directed Bra, then handed her a towel and a bathrobe, then pushed her towards her bathroom.

"O...k..." said Pan. A bit surprised by the welcome but she took a shower anyway. When she came out she saw 2 packages on the bed, with Bra waiting.

"What's that?" Pan asked.

"Our dresses!" Bra chirped.

"Okay, give me the dress so I can put it on." said Pan.

"I'm afraid it's gonna be more than that. As you know we have a whole selection of hair stylists, manicure and pedicurists, and make up artists. Before we put on the dress. We have to get all of this done." said Bra.

"Shit." Pan groaned. Now she understood why she had to come so early. But the idea, didn't amuse her.

"We're going to go up to the 8th floor for our manicures and pedicures. Then up to the make up artists on floor 6. And lastly our hair stylists on the 7th floor."

"Is there any reason why we're going in this order?" Pan asked, Bra opened the door and her and Pan walked to the elevator.

"Yes. Manicures and Pedicures come first. " she pushed the 8th floor button, " cuz it's the fastest. Next comes make up, then hair because hair has to be perfect and untouched."

The exited the elavator. A butler was awaiting them. Then he led them to a door and when the opened it, Pan saw what looked like a whole nail salon. Sitting down in chairs, they each got their own manicurist and pedicurist. It was actually rather relaxing. Pan actually fell asleep. But when she woke up (which was by Bra's annoyed voice) she found that her toes and nails had been done a dark blue with little rhinestones. Dirt was gone from her,now fake, nails. She looked over at Bra, who was looking a little angry.

"Come on Pan! We do have other appointments!" said Bra bossily.

Before going out the door, Pan looked at a clock at the wall and it read 9:45.

'That took almost an hour and half?!' Pan thought.

But her thoughts were soon disrupted by being pushed in the elavator and taken down to the 6th floor. This time, the shop was close, so no need of a butler. Once they got in, 2 woman greeted them and took them to their area of assorted things. Pan, was seated in a chair (again) and the woman began immediatley with lotion on the face to get out all the dirt. After that, the woman added blush, then lip liner, lipstick, eye brow plucker from hell, eye shadow, eye liner, mascara and eye lash curler. Surprisngly, to herself, Pan was able to sit through the whole thing without complaints, although the eye brow plucker made her squeal a few times.

Finally being able to get up and stretch, she looked in the mirror to her newly decorated face which she had gone through an hour and a half of impatience. Pan was shocked. She didn't look like herself, she thought she looked good, but the amount of make up she had on actually felt like that much. 5 minutes later, Bra came out. She screamed and hugged Pan when she saw her.

"You look like a princess!" said Bra.

"I feel like one." said Pan, then she mumbled, "But I don't like it."

Thankfully Bra was already heading out the door when she made that last comment. Glancing at a clock (again) Pan saw the time was 11 o'clock. Bra headed to the elavator again, but Pan grabbed her by the waist and flew out the window, only to go up 1 floor. (which was where the hair stylist was).

"Too slow to use the elavator for such a short distance." Pan shrugged.

2 hours later, Bra and Pan came out of the beauty salon with kewl hairdo's. Pan's hair was crimped. And Bra had gotten her hair half up, half down with curls. Just to add a bit more to their hair, Pan asked for dark blue streaks, Bra wanted ornamental (purple and white) flowers in her hair.

"We are SO ready for the ball." Bra sighed dreamily while looking at their reflection in the mirror.

Pan agreed. The time now was one o'clock. Bra admited she didn't think it would take this short a time, but they still had more to do. Going in the damn elevator again, Bra and Pan went in Bra's room to get changed.

"So, Pan Son can look like a girl." Bra smirked. Just to tease.

"And Bra Briefs can dress in an outfit that isn't too slutty." Pan smirked as well.

"Good to know, you still have those smart ass remarks. To think, I almost missed those when we weren't friends." said Bra. Pan laughed.

*5:45*

Bra and Pan almost ran (couldn't run cuz of hair) down to the ball room. Vegeta and Bulma were up on their throne. Trunks and Goten were standing lazily awaiting the food.

"AHEM!" Bra said loudly so everyone would acknowledge the fact that they were there.

"BRA! PAN! You look gorgeous!" Bulma yelled.

Bra nodded her agreement, while Pan blushed tremendously. Over at the food table, Trunks's mouth was wide open. Goten noticed this and smirked.

"Trunks. I believe your mouth is hanging out in amazement while you are looking at my sister." Goten said.

Trunks immediatly shut his mouth. "She looks good. Ya know, girls are always supposed to be this primped up."

"Your sister looks good as well." Goten said, checking out Bra.

"Don't get any ideas." Trunks warned.

"Wow, hi brother. You look.....er.....good." said Pan. In fact, Goten and Trunks looked like they had a lot less to do than Bra and Pan so excuse Pan if she doesn't think her brother put up quit the effort to impress.

"The guests are here." announced the butler. Bra clapped her hands in joy and went to greet them.

"This is where I leave you. It'll be full of gold-diggers in a second, itching to get in Trunks's pants and wallet." said Pan.

"Hey!" said Trunks annoyed.

"Well, it's true. Catch ya later." Pan waved and walked off. Looking a lot more clam than she felt inside, because telling Trunks how she felt would be her challenge.
