Chapter 9: Crimson Regret and Betrayal

Pan closed her eyes tightly, hoping that it would all turn out to be a dream. However...

"Open your eyes, Pan-chan. I'm real."

Pan started to run away, but was stopped by AU Trunks tackling her to the ground. He flipped her over, sat on her stomach, and held her arms above her head, pinning her down.

"You're a feisty little one, aren't you?" he asked her.

"No, get off me!"

"Now why would I want to do that?" AU Trunks said sliding his hands up her sides. "You're a very pretty girl. It's too bad I have to kill you." A Ki ball began to materialize in his hand.

"Please, no!"

"Let's see you dodge from this distance."

Pan closed her eyes waiting for the impact. A second later, she heard a loud bang. She started to scream, and when she felt another pair of arms wrap around her neck, she began to thrash and squirm.

"Hey, hey. Calm down. It's me," Trunks said.

"Baka yarou!" AU Trunks spat.

"Why did you attack her?" Trunks growled at his alternate counterpart.

"Don't you get it? Your little mate their was right. We do want to kill you. It's all the beginning of our plan to make this dimension the dominant one. We have all lied to you! And to thank you for your kindness of believing us, I'm going to give you a present." AU Trunks said.

Trunks charged at him blinded by anger. AU Trunks threw a strong ki blast at Pan, and it shot her in the stomach. As Pan fell to the ground, Trunks' eyes and hair began to flicker. He powered up to Super Saiya-jin, then to SSJ2, and then he broke the barrier going up to Super Saiya-jin 3.

"You just made the biggest mistake of your life," SSJ3 Trunks said.

"Oh, really?"

"Final Fla...huh?" Trunks said as a girl dressed in all black ran in front of AU Trunks.

"You will not kill him!"

"Who the hell are you?"

"Pan-chan, it's nice to see you again," AU Trunks said.

"Pan?!" Trunks cried out looking at the goth girl.

"You're surprised. You didn't think you'd ever see the day your little girlfriend would betray you, did you?"

"Y-you're not the Pan I know," Trunks stammered. AU Trunks smirked.

"You shouldn't ever let your guard down," AU Trunks said.

Trunks halted for a second and remembered that Pan had told him the same thing before they entered this crazy world. And that's what led to his downfall.

AU Pan took her sword and thrust it deep into his torso. Pan, who was lying on the ground, looked up at that exact moment. AU Pan began to remove the sword, while Trunks stood there eyes opened wide.

"It's a shame you didn't listen to your girlfriend," AU Pan said as Trunks fell to the ground.

"Trunks!" Pan screamed when she finally found her voice. She crawled over to him.

"Pan-chan, I'm sorry for not believing in you," Trunks coughed. "I guess this is goodbye."

"No! No, it's not! You are not going to die! You promised me you'd never leave me," Pan started to cry.

"P...Pan-chan, aishiteru," Trunks finished as his whole world turned black. His hand that was stroking her hair fell limp by his side.

"Trunks! Trunks-kun, aishiteru," Pan sobbed as she kissed him. She stood up to face her attackers and growled, "How dare you! HOW DARE YOU!"

Her eyes began to flash cerulean as a silver aura surrounded her.

"What the hell is going on?" AU Trunks asked. AU Pan looked up at her counterpart in awe. "You lied to me!"

"What? What do you mean I lied to you?!" Pan yelled.

"You told me that you couldn't go Super!"

"How did I know?! I never had anything traumatizing like that happen to me!"

"We agreed to find out everything about these two and annihilate them. We were to make this dimension the dominant one!"

All the while they were fighting, Pan was listening and powering up.

"Final Revolution!" she yelled. AU Trunks and AU Pan dodged it at the last second. Pan growled.

"You bastard! You lied to us!" Pan yelled, then turned to her counterpart and charged at her. "You...You killed him you, bitch. Murderer! Bring him back! Bring him back!" she yelled while silent tears slid down her cheeks. She pummeled her counterpart with unleashed fury.

AU Trunks flew towards Pan knocking her out of the way, into a tree. She landed on top of Trunks. Pan managed to push herself up into a sitting position. She looked down at the body she landed on and shook in more anger and pain.

"Bitch and bastard are such ugly words coming from your mouth," AU Pan said recovering from the onslaught.

"You will be stopped," Pan informed them.

"I highly doubt that," AU Trunks countered. "Come on. It's about time we were leaving."

A portal appeared out of nowhere when AU Pan lifted her arms.

"Ja," she said as she jumped through. "Hope you have fun here."

AU Trunks smirked, "I hope you don't mind if we take your places in your world so we can destroy it!"

Pan was drained of energy so all she could do was watch the portal disappear helplessly.

Thanks to-

ladybugg: because they are a bunch of serial killers... I think... --

Miaka-chan: they don't want to just kill her. The chapter above mentions that they want to be the dominant dimension.

AnimeFruitcakes: they are evil...

coolkitty: I live!!!! Haha! Yeah, school's a pain, but I guess I just have to suffer. Good news...I'm out June 17th! Yes! Freedom! Thanks for sticking by me even tough I don't update all that much anymore.

Trunks' Brat Baby: Did you just say Bulma's a bitch. ROFL!! Haha! That's funny. AU Trunks does care for the Pan in his time, but he'd have no problem hurting the one from the regular timeline. AU Trunks and AU Pan are somewhat together. Trunks and Pan are still figuring out their feelings for one another, but I think after this chapter, they will become clear.

Trupan: I hope you got all the answers you wanted from this chapter.

Spirit Demon: updated!

Candy the Duck: I'm sorry I confused you!
