The Future of Their Hearts
Pan flew through the air with great speed to the lookout. Her blue backpack was
strapped to her back full of clothes and some food they'd need for the trip to Planet Vidal.
She figured it take about a month, a month and a half to find it and they had plenty of
food there. She had just had a rather quick talk with her parents saying she'd be gone for
a while. Ok so it wasn't so quick. They protested to it, a lot. They'd say things like. "Pan!
You are not going to outer space again!" and "It's dangerous out there." But they both
knew they couldn't keep the 21 year old from doing what she needed and wanted. In her
hand was an old orange piece of cloth, her old bandana. She hadn't worn it for a while.
She sighed and gave a smile. She wrapped it tightly around her head and tied it tight.
"Alright!" she said aloud. "Time to save the world again!" She picked up speed and flew
off to the lookout to take off for the trip of her life and hear the news of her life as well.
~~~~(At Kami's Lookout)~~~~
Dende, guardian of Earth, sat inside of his palace atop Kami's lookout. He, even
though he was the Earth's guardian, was still like you and me. Sitting there for years he
was bored out of his dang mind. He was drumming his green fingers along the beautiful
thrown he sat in. It was golden with a carving of Shenron, the Earth's eternal dragon, on
it even though he had been absent for quiet some time now, along with the Earth's, as
well as the universe's greatest hero, Goku. Mr. Popo was outside gardening like always
when a group of three worriers landed by him. "Hey Mr. Popo." Trunks said waving his
way. He picked his head up and saw the three figures through the fog. Trunks was the
first to step through the fog towards him. "Hello Trunks." He said setting down his green
watering pale. The two others followed causing Popo to give a confused look to Trunks.
"Can we see Den..." Mirai Pan began but slowly she stopped as her legs began to turn to
jelly beneath her. Her face went pale and she began to blackout as her eyes slowly shut.
She fell to the floor, unconscious. The three could only watch helplessly as time slipped
from Mirai Pan's existence. "God no! Not now!" Mirai Trunks said crouching by her
side. "Please, Pan. Wake up." He said feeling for a pulse. Hell, he wouldn't be able to tell
like that, his own heart was racing, beating loud as a drum. He slid the hair from over his
ear aside and put his head against Mirai Pan's chest to hear for a heartbeat. Sure enough it
was there, racing, like his own. He sat back. His hand clutched his heart. It felt as if it
would explode from his own chest. He tried to breath slower. "What's all the commotion
out here?!" a voice rang through the fog "Dende, you've got to help." Trunks said with
fear and urgency in his voice. He immediately sensed a fading power as he said this. He
rushed over. "What the! Trunks! Pan... and Trunks!" "Yeah, yeah, just help her out
Dende." Mirai Trunks said to him. "Oh," he rushed to her side and began using his
healing powers on her hoping to awaken her. It began to work and she came to. She was
taken inside to rest. Mirai Trunks put his hand on the guardian's shoulder. "Dende, how
much time does she have left?" he asked with no explanation what so ever. "Not long I'm
afraid. Six months at the least, near eight at the max." he told him sending an agonizing
pain though his heart. "Pan." He said sitting down at her side holding on to her hand.
"Please, we'll get you that antidote, please, just hold in there." Dende just stood there
confused, this all was happening so fast he barely understood what was happening so the
Trunks's explained as they waited on Pan to arrive.
~~~~~~~~(At a village near Korrin's Tower)~~~~~~~
Pan flew over top a village where several people were outside working in fields where
a familiar voice caught her ear. "Hey, Pan! Where you goin'!" the voice of one of Earth's
greatest fighters rang out from the fields. Pan stopped and turned to see a twenty-five
year old Uub flying toward her. "Oh, hey Uub." She said waving. He halted in front of
her. "I'm on my way to Kami's lookout." "What for?" he asked as he was intrigued by
what business she'd have there of all places. "Well, uh... it's hard to explain but here
goes. I have to go see Dende because me, Trunks, Future Trunks, and my future self have
to go find an antidote for my future self because she's sick and there's a war going on in
the future so they're here to try and prevent it too." "Uh huh." He said confused. "Oh,
Uub. It would take forever to explain it all so I will when I get back from space, I
promise." "Alright Pan." He said "Bye, see ya Uub." Pan called at she took off. "See ya
Pan." He called back heading to the fields. Pan flew to Korrin's Tower and speed up it
spiraling around the long column it stood on. She speed past Korrin and an old Yajarobi
into the clouds above. Yajarobi just looked up at the woman flying up with such speed.
He had a quizzical look on his face, "Uh... who was that Korrin?" he asked the small, old,
white cat next to him. "Pan, stupid moron." He remarked. "Oh,... hey wait. I'm not a
moron! I'm the bean daddy" he said rather stupidly pointing to himself with his thumb
and the rest of his hand in a fist (sorry but I found that funny. [Cooler's Revenge -DBZ-])
"I don't care!" he yelled back "By the way, you never told me what a bean daddy was."
~~~~~(Atop Kami's Lookout)~~~~~
Pan landed near the door of the palace and looked around for Trunks and their future
selves. They were nowhere in site. She cupped her hands to her mouth "Hey! Trunks!
Dende! Mr. Popo! Where are you guys!" she yelled out not knowing they where just
inside about three foot from the door. "Where right here!" Trunks said looking around the
door. "Oops, sorry." She said looking down at her feet feeling slightly embarrassed. She
walked inside as Mirai Trunks finished telling why he and Mirai Pan had come. "Hey, uh,
where's Pan at?" Pan asked "She's laying down Pan. She really took a blow from the
virus just now and Dende was just about to explain about it." "Ok." She said sitting
down. Dende began. "Well, it's like nothing I've ever seen of heard of. It's there but at
the same time not there at all. It's kind of like it's omnipresent. It's everywhere but still,
you can never trace it anywhere all the same. With this occurring I can't determine
anyway to cure it." "But Dende, couldn't we find a cure on Planet Vidal." "I'm afraid not
Trunks." He told to Mirai Trunks. "Please, is there anything, anyone who could possibly
find a way to help Pan?" Mirai Trunks pleaded with him, tears in his eyes. He truly loved
her, he couldn't stand to see her die, not now, not after she'd lost her unborn son. That
was all the reason she couldn't love him now. It was times of war when I happened and
he hadn't cared the least bit she'd lost him then. Well, at least he never showed it. He had
to toughen up and fight. He told her when she was crying, "Suck it up Pan. You have to
fight. It... it's probably better you weren't pregnant anyway. We need you to fight now,
not bring another life into this world so we have to watch after and protect it. He'd just
died anyway, like all of Earth!" Those were his exact words, he'd never forget them,
ever. He never meant a single one though. He loved her dearly, and their son. He wished
he could have taken it all back but no, he'd enraged her. If he hadn't ducked out of the
tent seconds after that he would have been decapitated by an angry blast she'd thrown at
him just like her grandmother, Chi-Chi, would have thrown a pot at Goku's head. Dende
began to speak up. "I know of one person who could help." "Who!?" They all three said
together. "An old woman. She has incredible healing as well as magical abilities. But, it
is a great task to find her. No one knows just where she is. On my home planet, Namek,
she is a great legend. To find her they say you must complete several tasks of great
bravery as well as be pure of heart and have a free, untamed, good-hearted spirit." As if
magic they looked to Pan. She pointed to herself and gulped. "Me?" "You're the only one
who could fit the description." Trunks said. "Besides, you said you'd go. Don't tell me
big brave Pan's backin' out?" "Now way!" she said jumping up. "But, all by myself?"
"Nah, I'm comin' Pan. Your not getting all the glory." Trunks said with a smile on his
lips. "Alright! Lets do it!" She said thrusting her fist once again into the air. Trunks
reached into his pocked and pulled out the capsule that housed the ship they'd be using
for the trip. "You ready? All we have from what Dende said is six to eight months"
Trunks asked as the stepped out side. She just nodded. "I'm set." "Ok!" he said clicking
the button on top and throwing the capsule forward. A huge cloud of smoke appeared and
when I cleared it revealed I ship ready for transport. The door opened and Trunks walked
over to the ladder. He didn't even get to grasp hold of the railing of the ladder before a
loud growl came over the lookout. Pan just smiled the famous Son family smile and
scratched the back of her head. "Sorry guys. My stomachs not ready to leave yet I guess."
She said. Everyone fell down in the classic and anime style. Trunks scrambled to his feet
rubbing a now sore spot on the back of his head. "How 'bout we wait till morning." He
said "Yeah, that would probably be good." She said letting out a laugh. The six ate a huge
dinner prepared by Mr. Popo. Mirai Pan still lay in bed. She ate a little but was to sick to
take much in or she would vomit it all back up which was a lesson Mirai Trunks had to
learn the hard way. The night dragged on with little sleep for anyone but that night Pan
would have a dream that would rattle her brain with a riddle and rattle her mind for the
trip ahead that would begin tomorrow morning and last over the next months, but just
how intense is this dream she'll have and why is it so shaking that will cause Pan to
almost die in the night.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, really, who nerve rattling is it, and how does Pan almost die? Well, you'll just have to read on. Next time Pan has a dream that tells her much of the mysterious old legend, and the journey begins but how will a left out few best friends and grandmother feel about their sudden leaving?
