"Who are you?" Pan asked as she turned around to look at the man standing next to her.
"You could say that I'm a friend," the man said.
"Maybe I don't want to be your friend." Pan was getting a funny feeling from this guy. He looked nice but she could feel the evilness lurking just below the surface in him.
"I didn't say I was your friend. I just said I was a friend. Actually I'm a close personal friend of Trunks."
'Dammit why did I have to go so far away from everybody. Oh sure Trunks follows me around when I don't need him, but when I do, where is he with Uncle G. Stupid boys, stupid Trunks. Why won't this guy leave me alone? Wait a minute did he just say that he is a friend of Trunks? Then why is he harassing me?' "Fine so you're not my friend, but you are Trunk's friend, so why don't you go bug him?"
"Pan, I'm hurt I come all the way here to kill you and you act so mean to me."
"What did you just say?" Pan asked as she started backing away and looking for a place to run to.
"Are you scared? You should be," the man said as he reached out and grabbed her arms pulling her to him. "Now be a good girl and don't scream or raise your ki. If you do will only die quicker and you'll ruin my fun."
" What kind of monster are you?" Pan whispered, struggling against him as he pulled her out of sight from everyone and towards his car.
"Well that's the thing, I'm not a monster not anymore. Now get in or I'll kill you here and then I'll kill your mother. She is so fragile right now; it would be so easy to kill her.
"Fine I'll get in but leave my mother alone you bastard."
(Gohan's house)
"Goten, where is Pan?" Gohan asked his little brother.
"I don't know. I think she may still be at the cemetery."
"No, I looked for her before we left but I couldn't find her. You don't think that she would have run away do you?"
"Gohan calm down, Pan just lost her grandfather. Just give her some time to sort everything out, you know that she would never leave, especially with Videl as upset as she is. I mean, she's got a lot going on emotionally, first Trunks and now Hercule."
"You are right. WAIT a minute, what do you mean 'first Trunks'?"
"Opps! I ah, I don't know what you are talking about Gohan. Wait; what's that Mom needs me. Well see you later big brother." Goten said as he scrambled to get away form his brother before he said anything else that would get Trunks hurt. 'Oh man, I gotta find Trunks and tell him to stay away form Gohan.'
It was to late for Trunks, because right after Goten disappeared Trunks walked in to ask if anyone had seen Pan. "Hey Gohan, do you know where Pan is?"
"Why do you want to know where Pan is, Trunks?" Gohan asked with a glint of murder in his eyes. "And what exactly did Goten mean when he said Pan has been though a lot emotionally, first Trunks and now Hercule? Have you done something to hurt my baby?"
"Gohan, it's not what you think and when I find Goten I'm going to beat him for putting ideas in your head." Trunks said as he tried to calm Gohan down so that he wouldn't kill him.
"Okay so if it isn't what I think, why don't you tell me what is going on." Gohan said as he took a seat and motioned for Trunks to do the same.
"This is going to take a while but here it goes."
(Pan)
"Where are we and why have you brought me here?"
"Patience Pan. I'll tell you everything in due time but right now I need you to meet your new roommate."
"What are you talking about, what.Oh Dende, Parisu! What have you done to her?" Pan yelled as she ran over to Parisu's unconscious body.
"Don't worry I didn't kill her. I just gave her something so that she would sleep until I could get you here. Besides it would not be any fun to kill either of you unless Trunks and little Kakarott were here to watch their loved ones die. Now be a good girl and shut up, unless you don't want to know why I've done this."
"Fine I'll be quite but what does Trunks and Uncle G have to do with anything? I thought that you were friends with Trunks?"
"So impatient and so full of questions. I'm probably doing Trunks a favor by killing you, so he doesn't have to deal with your constant harping for the rest of his life. Oh yeah I lied I'm not Trunks friend."
"Trunks loves me and he will come and save me then kill you for this. So will Uncle G."
"That's what I'm counting on," the man said as he shut the door to Pan and Parisu's cell.
"Hey I thought you where going to tell me why you are doing this?" Pan yelled as she ran to the door and started beating on it.
"I am. I'm just making sure that you don't escape. I need you here when Trunks and little Kakarott arrive. Now if you will excuse me I really need to go rest. I'll tell you everything when you have had a chance to learn some patience."
(Gohan's house)
"So see, I never wanted to hurt her and I didn't know what else to do. But when I saw her dancing with Uub I realized that it didn't matter anymore. I don't want to live without her. I love her, Gohan and I want to make her happy if she would just give me the chance to explain everything."
"I understand why you did what you did, Trunks, but maybe you should have told Pan all of this before you broke both of your hearts and Uub's jaw. I can't believe you hit Uub. No wonder he has been glaring at you all day. But what I don't get is why he is also glaring at Bra and Marron, what did they do?"
"I have no idea. And I have a feeling I won't like the explanation I'll get so I'm not asking."
"You are probably right about that. Anyway back to the subject at hand. I don't like that you hurt my little girl, but I'm not going to stop you from being with her if that is what she wants."
"Thank you Gohan. I owe you one. Now if you would just tell me where she is then I will go and make everything up to her."
"I'm sorry Trunks I can't" "But you just said you were okay with us being together."
"I was going to say I couldn't tell you where she is because I don't know. In fact I had just asked Goten that before he ran off and you came in."
"Opps, sorry Gohan. I didn't mean to interrupt you. WAIT a minute, what do you mean you don't know where she is? She could be hurt of worse and you are sitting here all calm. What kind of a father are you?"
"Trunks shut up. I'm worried about her, but I know my daughter and she is probably out for a walk. She does that when she needs to sort out her feelings. Besides if Pan was in trouble she would raise her ki and let us know that she needs our help."
"Sorry Gohan. I think I'm going to go for a walk also and see if I can find her." Trunks said with a blush of embarrassment covering his face.
"Alright Trunks, you go do that. I'm going to go check on Videl. See you later." Gohan said walking off to find his wife.
'Dende where in the world could Pan be? I know she liked to go for walks, but it is not like her to disappear like this without telling someone where she went. Especially not when her mother is so upset and needs her. I should have ignored Goten and gone after her when she walked off at the end of the funeral.'
"Hey Trunks! Um listen Gohan is looking for you so it might be best if you left for a little while." Goten said as he ran over to Trunks and started pushing him out the door.
"Why would I need to leave if Gohan is looking for me?"
"Well um you see I kinda told him that Pan was a little emotional right now and I might have mentioned your name as one of the reasons why."
"Gee thanks a lot Goten. But I'm not going to run away from your brother, especially after I have already talked to him."
"You have! And you are still living? That's great man. So ah where are you going now?"
"Well I'm worried about Pan. It's not like her to be gone this long especially when Videl is so upset."
"I know, but she is just really stressed right now. I bet Pan has gone off to Hercule's house for a little bit. She use to always go there when she was stressed and taking a walk didn't help. You know he has a private training room. Pan is probably just working out her emotions by kicking the crap out of some poor punching bag. Just give her a little more time. If she isn't back in an hour or two then I'll help you go look for her. Okay?"
"Yeah, I guess your right." Trunks sighed as he walked over and sat down on the couch with his head in his hands. " So where is Parisu? I haven't seen her since Saturday night."
"I have no idea. I totally forgot to call her and tell her what all is going on." Goten said as he scratched the back of his head. "I've been so busy helping Gohan that I have not even thought about her. Oh, boy is she going to be upset with me."
"You amaze me sometimes. Goten, you are the only person I know that could forget about a beautiful woman."
"Hey, I was preoccupied with family. It was not like I did it on purpose or anything like that." Goten said defensively.
"Sorry man. I didn't mean to make fun of you. Listen I think I'm going to go to my office to do some work. Call me when Pan shows back up, and please don't forget."
"I won't. See you later Trunks."
"Bye Goten."
(Pan)
Pan paced the tiny cell, waiting for the mystery man to come back and explain everything to her. Parisu hadn't awaken yet which was really worrying Pan. 'I know he didn't kill her because I can feel her pulse, but why hasn't she woken up yet? I'm going to kill this jerk for doing this to us. Now if he would just come back so I can kill him or cause him bodily harm.' Pan thought as she made yet another lap around the tiny cell. After an hour of pacing Pan decided to switch her tactics. She moved to the door and started banging on it hoping to gain somebody's attention. 'Dammit this isn't working. Now what am I going to do? Trunks where are you when I need you? Just like a guy, he always there when you don't want him, and never there when you need him. Trunks, you tell me you love me then you don't even bother to come save me. Dammit Trunks, I do love you! Now come rescue me!'
"Let me out of here! My Daddy will kill you when he finds me, so if you value your life, LET ME OUT!" Pan yelled as she returned to banging on the door.
"You know, you are awfully annoying. I really do believe that I'm doing Trunks and everyone else a favor by killing you." The man said as he walked back to the door of the cell.
"Yeah well you would be doing yourself a favor if you let me out of here. You have no idea what Trunks and my family are capable of if you make them mad. And kidnapping me falls under the category of making them mad."
"Oh what will the little Saiyan Prince and the rest of them do to me that has not already been done?"
"How do you know about Saiyans?" Pan asked
"Poor little Pan, nobody tells you anything do they? I'm surprised Vegeta never told you about the legendary Super Saiyan."
"He didn't but my Daddy, Trunks and Uncle G did. But he was killed after the incident at Biotechnics Plant. What does that have to do with anything? And how do you know about Saiyans?"
"A lot. You see your Grandfather humiliated me as a child and then he and his oldest brat tried to kill me years later. Then your little Saiyan Prince and little Kakarott tried to kill me again, but all they did was destroy my body. But as you can see I got a new one and now it is time to make everyone pay for what was done to me."
During his tirade Pan's face lost all color as she started backing away from the door. She whispered the one name that could make her blood run cold, "Brolli"
