The Future of Their Hearts
"I... I remember now!" Vegeta said in pure horror. Trunks looked his way. They both
heard the door to the bathroom open. Vegeta didn't speak just yet. Mirai Trunks walked
in and Mirai Pan who had just exited the lab with a glum face walked into the room as
well. "Uh... did I miss something?" Mirai Trunks asked. "What's up?" Vegeta didn't
notice either of them; he was in fear. The future would be just like his past. Now was the
time, he had to tell his tale "The Kanass-jin are the same race of heartless beasts that
destroyed the first planet Vegeta." "Huh?" Mirai Trunks and Trunks said in
synchronization. "I always thought you said Frieza destroyed Vegeta, That's what
Grandpa told me." Mirai Pan said sitting down "No, Frieza destroyed the Vegeta that was
built on the Tuffle Planet. The Vegeta that they destroyed was the original. I was just a
baby then." He told them. Oh how he remembered the stories his own father told him.
Now, these tales would have to be told to them as well. "There was a huge crash near the
outskirts of Vegeta's main city where the castle was. A huge space pod had landed with
great force causing a giant crater. I few Saiyans were killed in the crash but so many
more would come after it," he said. Mirai Trunks sat down and the all listened intently.
"The Kanass-jin exploded out of the pod and just started a ruthless slaughter of my planet
and people. Nearly a fourth of the population escaped but not with out several battle scars
to remind them of their past. They seemed to be invincible. Even our greatest worriers
had no effect on them. They couldn't even land a blow much less even cause them to
break a sweat. Those few days, that's all they needed. The killed anyone they got there
tight grip on, even," he began to say. He dropped his head low and clinched his fist tight
popping each bone in his hands as he did so. "Even my mother." He said softer. Mirai
Pan and Trunks both had their fists tightly gripped as well by this time. Trunks just sat
there in shock. He couldn't believe all this. These beast destroyed the Saiyan race long
ago and now all of earth in the years to come giving even his Super Saiyan four father a
hard time to even defeat. Heck, what was he thinking, a hard time no, a giant pain in the
ass of a hard time was more like it. Everyone was quiet. A few seconds passed and the
doorbell rang. "It's Pan, I'll get it," Trunks said as he stood up. "I've got some explaining
to do huh." Mirai Pan said to Mirai Trunks. He only shook his head slightly. "I'll tell
her." Mirai Trunks volunteered. "No, it would be better if I did," she said. She dropped
her head low and Mirai Trunks saw the glittering of a tear in her eye. It dropped to the
floor. The door opened to Pan more confused than ever. "I thought you were gonna come
over for dinner Trunks, then you left right after I saw you and..." she trailed off. She still
hadn't noticed Mirai Trunks sitting there. He had moved from his seat next to Mirai Pan
who was quietly crying telling him the horrible news yet to be revealed. Pan stared at his
face. "Hey, what happened to all those scratches you just had, and wasn't your hair
longer?" she said. "Uh... Pan, we have a little explaining to do." He said stepping aside
letting her see Mirai Trunks and her future self. She stared at them like she had just seen
some kind of ghost or hideous, blood sucking, slime oozing alien. She scratched the back
of her head. "Well, uh... I guess that explains a lot." She said giving a crooked half smile.
Pan and Trunks stepped inside and sat down across from their future selves. Mirai Trunks
was to tell the tale. Mirai Pan led Trunks and Vegeta to another room to tell them the
horrible news. Mirai Trunks retold his tale to Pan but he added something no one but
Mirai Pan knew. "Pan, also in about three years you will lose a family member as well,
but you never knew him." He told her after he told her, her entire family was to be
annihilated. "I hope in this time line you wont, but, me telling you me stop it from ever
accruing." "What is it already?" she begged. "You will feel very bad toward me in the
future and claim it to be all me fault. You will be in hopes to bare a child in three years
but due to fighting you'll have a miscarriage. You see, that is why in the future you'll be
so vulnerable to this disease." "Oh," she said sadly dropping her head. "No wonder. Is
that why she seems not to like you too much? Because you were the dad of the child that
died?" he nodded a sad nod and sighed. "It's ok." She told him. He shook his head, "No
Pan, it's not ok at all." Mirai Pan and the others came back into the room as if on cue.
"So it's set, we'll see Dende and get a ship set to go." Trunks said. Vegeta and Mirai Pan
nodded. Pan cocked one of her eyebrows high. "What?" she asked. "Well, uh..." Trunks
was cut off by Mirai Pan. "I'll tell her, after all, it is our body it's happening to." He only
nodded. He was till trying hard to earn her friendship back, he'd already lost what love he
thought they shared. Sure they considered each other friends but Pan still kept up this
'barrier' it seemed like. Trying to keep people out of her emotional life. Who could
argue, she'd lost a son she never knew. The two Pans walked out of the room to a room
upstairs. They walked into the library and sat down it two chairs, one a soft cushioned red
chair the other a wooden rocker. Mirai Pan was in the red chair. "Well, Pan, in the future
you know already that you'll, we'll, encounter a virus and Me and Trunks came here to
find some kind of cure. Well," she said tearing up a little, "it turns out not even Bulma
can help on this one. There isn't a cure on this planet. There is a place we could check
though." She said. Pan thought. She snapped her fingers just as she got the answer.
"Planet Vidal!?" (if you haven't seen yet it's a planet with high medical standards, even
Trunks is amazed by it [GT]) "Yes." Mirai Pan said, "But we have to go see Dende first,
he could probably pinpoint what the virus is." "Why don't you just do that in your time
line?" she asked. "Well, Dende is gone. That virus was so strong it made it to the lookout
in about a week and destroyed Dende from the inside out in a few days time. And right
now that's what's happening to me but much slower, I guess it's the luck of being Saiyan.
besides if we could get a ship ready we'd never find Planet Vidal again. Giru is gone and
I doubt even if he weren't he wouldn't have the coordinates saved in his memory."
"Yeah, I guess so." She said. "Well," Pan said standing up. "Lets go see Dende." She said
making a fist and sending it into the air. Mirai Pan nearly laughed. She hadn't really done
that since the war broke lose or you could say since hell froze over. "Alright!" she said
standing up with her. The two walked out of the room down stairs to a waiting group.
"Mom's got a ship ready to go, all we have to do now is go see Dende. Pan was more
ready than ever to go but Mirai Pan turned to her and shook her head. "Go get ready for
the trip and meet up there. We'll take the ship with us to the lookout and take off from
there." "Oh alright." She said turning and dragging her feet. She walked out of the door
and jumped onto the wind's back and rode it home. "You'd better not try to leave with
out me Trunks like you tried when you looked for the black star dragon balls!" she called
back to him as she disappered over the trees. "I won't!" he called back to her. He smiled
after her. The two future selves smiled after them as well. They both, for some reason,
had a hope that these two would get together like they did, but the war to be nonexistent.
He turned back to his mother who was looking under the ship for the button to capsulize
it. She punched it on site and snatched the small blue capsule with "B17" on it out of the
air and handed it to Trunks. "Thanks mom." He told her. She nodded. Mirai Pan grabbed
onto Mirai Trunks back for a ride since she was still too weak to fly. They were hoping
for an easy trip to the lookout but instead what they'd find Dende to tell them some news
that would be a bit hard to swallow. It involved a girl, a ship, a friend, a place hundreds
of thousands of miles away, and an 'old' woman that would save her future as well as
make it or will a huge change in the condition of Mirai Pan but enough to shorten their
time limit to find this 'old' woman a lose all hope of curing her and stopping the war.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Who is this 'old' woman and what is so important hundreds of thousands of miles away? Well, you'll find out soon. Next time Dende tells the Trunks's and Pan's what is happening and the ends up being a change in Mirai Pan's condition. Is it good, or bad.
"I... I remember now!" Vegeta said in pure horror. Trunks looked his way. They both
heard the door to the bathroom open. Vegeta didn't speak just yet. Mirai Trunks walked
in and Mirai Pan who had just exited the lab with a glum face walked into the room as
well. "Uh... did I miss something?" Mirai Trunks asked. "What's up?" Vegeta didn't
