Hey everyone! After this update, there will be none for about a week because I will be on vacation. Don't worry, I'll work on more chapters for this fic, and for "Space and War", (if you've read it) too. So uh... review, please!

Disclaimer...dangit I lost it again...OH! Here it is...it's always in the last place you look...

Last time:

"Wow! We sure have talked a long time!" I said, glancing at the clock, which read 6:30.

"Yeah." She answered. "We'd better get down there. I'm sure Marron will want to talk to you."

"I would like to talk to her, too." I said as we both stood and walked out of her room.

As we walked down the stairs, I saw a lot of people I hadn't seen in such a long time. Krillin is getting gray hair! Even Piccolo is here. I didn't expect to see him. Usually he didn't come to these kinds of things. I glanced around and saw Yamcha, Puar, Oolong, Master Roshi (oh great), and lots of other people. Most of the old 'Z' gang was here, along with a few people I didn't recognize. I quickly found Marron and Bra and I walked over to her.

"Hi Marron!" Bra said to her.

"Hi, Bra! ...Pan? Is that you?!" I nodded and she gave me a tight hug. "Wow! You've changed a lot!"

I smiled and answered, "so have you." And there our conversation started. We talked for a long time, then I decided to talk to other people. I talked with all the others that were there, even the ones I didn't know because Trunks introduced me to them. This went on until Bulma decided that it was time for dinner. After all, it was now about 7:30.

We all sat down at a large table in a more formal dining room. Even though this was a casual party, we had to eat here because the regular kitchen table wasn't big enough. Everyone took what they wanted and again started talking again as they ate.

Trunks had taken a seat next to me and Goten was on my other side. I got a weird look from Goten when I didn't take a whole lot of food. I just raised an eyebrow as to say 'what' and he just shook his head.

The party lasted well into the night. When I finally got to sleep, I remembered that I had to 'spar' with Vegeta in the morning. I groaned as I remembered this. Trunks suddenly popped his head into my room.

"Something wrong?" He asked.

"No...I'm just tired." I answered.

"Oh, okay. Good night."

"G'night." I replied and he left the room. I slowly rolled over so I was on my left side. I was so tired, and yet I couldn't sleep. I tossed and turned, trying to find a comfortable position. I must have still been awake at 2:30 a.m. I knew I wasn't going to get much sleep. I finally fell asleep. It felt like as soon as I did, someone was trying to wake me up.

"What?" I asked, pushing the person, who happened to be Trunks, away.

"It's 6:40. My Dad said you have to spar with him at 7:00. You might want to get up." Trunks answered. It wasn't until now that I opened my eyes and noticed what Trunks was wearing- sweatpants and no shirt. I shook my head and started to get out of bed. On the other side of the bed that he was sitting on.

"Okay, thanks."

"Don't I get a good morning hug?" Trunks asked, grinning. I sighed and walked over to him.

"Fine..." I said and he wrapped his arms around me and I hugged him back.

"Thanks Pan."

"Anytime." I said. "I should probably just get dressed... uhh... I don't have any sparring clothes..."

"Oh, well, I have some that are too small for me. They might be a little big on you, but they'll work." Trunks answered. He got up and left the room. Then he came back with a pair of baggy sweatpants and a tank top. He handed them to me and left the room so I could change.

The sweatpants were a little big in the waist, but that was fixed with the drawstring. The tank top was also a little big, but I could deal with it. I happened to glance over at the clock. 6:55. Oh crap! I ran downstairs, passing Trunks who was taking his good 'ol time getting down the stairs.

"Thanks, Trunks!" I called as I dashed down the hall to the kitchen and out the back door to the gravity chamber. I knocked on the door, because I could hear that the machine was on. The gravity turned off and Vegeta opened the door.

"You're...on time." He said, as though he wanted to tell me I was late, which I'm sure he did. "Get in here and stretch." I nodded and walked in. I stretched out and looked at him, waiting for further instruction.

"Now what?" I asked. As soon as I did, Vegeta came at me, fist first. I was lucky to block it. And our spar had begun....

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