Disclaimer here.

Last time:

Soon, we were told that we could board the plane. A few other people got up and walked with us. I was they guessing came here with Capsule Corps for whatever Trunks needed to do here.

******

I walked in front of Trunks as we got onto the plane. He turned me towards the seats we were to have and I sat down, aster moving towards the window. Trunks sat down next to me and leaned his chair back.

"This is going to be a while." He said, smiling. "So, get comfortable." I nodded, not saying anything. I felt the plane start to move and looked out the window. I could see many larger planes. Most were getting re-fueled, among other things.

I looked back at Trunks to find that he had been watching me the whole time. I blushed slightly and he grinned.

The plane taxied to the runway and started to take off. Beforehand, we were advised to buckle out seatbelts. It tilted back as it took off. Then it leveled out and we were off.

"Um, excuse me, sir?" A flight attendant said, getting his attention. "Would either of you like anything to eat or drink?"

"Sure, I'll have...a coke. Pan, you want anything?" I shook my head when he asked. "Okay then. That's it for now."

"Okay, sir." She handed him his drink and continued down the isle.

"You okay, Pan-chan?"

"Yeah." I answered quietly.

"Okay..." Trunks said, not believing me. I knew he didn't, but I didn't say anything else. I looked down at the city as we flew over. I had never really known how big it was, but I could see now.

I looked up and noticed some buttons above me. One looked like it turned on a light; another would get you an attendant. There was also one more. I couldn't tell what it was for, though. So, naturally, my curiosity got the better of me. I reached of to push it. As I did, I felt another hand reach up and grab mine.

"I wouldn't push that if I were you." Trunks said, laughing a little and pulling my hand back down. I looked at him, confused. "It's an oxygen mask thing. I don't think you'd want it falling on you head." I nodded, agreeing with him while smiling a little. Then, as my smile faded, I looked back out the window.

Trunks was still holding my hand as it rested on my armrest. I soon felt his grip release, his hand just resting on mine. I looked over to see that he had fallen asleep. He looked so...cute and innocent. Yawning, I leaned my seat back a little and soon joined him in slumber land.

******

I opened my eyes after being nudged in the ribs by Trunks. I looked at him, one eyebrow raised as if to say, 'you're waking me up because...?'

"Lunch is in a few minutes. I want you to eat something. You're going to kill yourself if you don't start eating right." Trunks said.

"I'm not very hungry...but I'll have a little something." I answered truthfully. Trunks sighed, but didn't protest. I guess he thought it wasn't his place to tell me whether or not I should eat something. I probably should have listened to him. I'd regret not doing so later.

Soon, the attendant came back for our orders. Trunks ordered almost twice as much food as I did. I was surprised that he didn't react to the little bit I ordered, but even more surprised that the attendant didn't react to how much he was ordering. But then again, I suppose they'd be used to what he'd order.

She nodded and continued down the isle, taking orders from people who were ready. After she was done with that, she went back to the small kitchen area. In about ten minutes, Trunks' and my food was brought out and we put down the tray things that were in the backs of the seats in front of us.

I quickly finished what had been set before me. Trunks just shook his head when I leaned back and then he continued eating. He couldn't eat with the super speed he may have at home because I think they'd find that even weirder than how much food he had ordered.

When he finished, he too leaned back. The attendant soon came and took our plates away and we put the tray things back into the seat.

I sighed and looked out the window to see that we were flying over mountains. I could see valleys and cliffs. Many of the valleys were green. I started to nod off again. I don't know why I am so tired, but I tried not to fall asleep. I started awake when I heard ringing coming from Trunks' direction. He reached into a pocket and pulled out a cell phone.

"Trunks here." He said, greeting whoever was calling. "...Oh, hi mom. ...Yes, I'm on the plane right now... yeah, it all went well. .............I'm sorry I didn't call yesterday, but I was...busy." As he said this, he looked over at me. "...Okay. I'll see you. I love you too, tell Bra I say hi, and Dad too, if he even cares." His mom said good-bye and he hung up the phone and put it back in his pocket.

"Why didn't you say anything about me?" I asked, confused because he and I both knew how excited she'd be.

"Oh, this way, we won't have a party thrown in our faces as soon as we get home. She tends to do that. So, you'll get a chance to adjust a little before seeing people you haven't in years."

"Oh, okay." I answered. Again, I stared out the window again. I was beginning to get bored. It was strange. usually, I can just sit some where and stare off into space with out getting bored. Maybe it was the fact that I was worried about how Bulma and everyone else would react to me coming back, and that they didn't know about my dad's death.

I'm sure they felt his ki disappear...or were we still hiding them at the time? I really don't remember. Sometimes we'd hide them, and sometimes we wouldn't. I just would whenever he would. That's probably why I didn't expect to come home and find him dead. I just figured he had been hiding his ki.

"Pan?" Trunks snapped me from my thoughts. "Would you like anything to drink?" I looked over to see an attendant standing in the isle.

"Umm...lemonade?" I answered. The attendant nodded and walked away. She quickly returned with Trunks' drink and mine. I took a sip when she handed it to me, but then set it down after pulling down the tray thing that's part of the seat in front of me. I just continued taking sips. Then I went back to staring out the window.

I could now see the coastline. There were many buildings. I couldn't see people, I guess they were too small. I soon felt Trunks' eyes on me and turned to look at him. He seemed to start staring into space when I looked over at him. Then he snapped back to reality.

"Something wrong, Pan?"

"No..."

"Oh, if you say so. You're really starting to worry me. Before you moved to America, you were really upbeat, and now you're different."

"Yes, but the upbeat me didn't live in a ghetto."
