The Future Of Their Hearts
Mirai Trunks stuffed a few pairs of clothes and some capsules into a duffle bag
Bulma had given him. "Now, Trunks. You make sure and find your father and Uub
quickly, ok? Give them the armor and then just remember what Goku told you." She
reminded. She had fashioned some Saiyan style armor for the boy's just a little while
back. "Yes Mother." Mirai Trunks replied throwing the duffle back over his shoulder.
"Where exactly is your time machine at?" She asked for about the millionth time. "It's
just south of here, near where Gohan, Pan, and Goten train." He said. He had recently
trained with them there. He was a stronger that Goten and Pan put together but if Gohan
had joined in he would have been in trouble. Gohan waited to go one on one with him
and Trunks knew he wasn't going full out, but maybe he was? He hadn't fought seriously
in years. Goku was to busy catching up with Chi-Chi to train lately. That was really
unlike him. Mirai Trunks sighed as he began to walk to the door. He hugged his mother
and they said their goodbyes. "I'll be back in a few months! Please make sure to check in
on Pan for me every one and a while!" he called back to her referring to Mirai Pan. "Sure
thing!" she said. Trunks flew off and waved back to Bulma. She waved too.
(((((On The Ship)))))
Pan was still a bit nervous. She still had some butterflies but they were calming down.
"We'll be at our destination in about a half hour." Trunks called from the control room.
"Alright." Pan said back. She stood up and glanced down at the watch on her left wrist.
1:47 p.m. was what it read. She sighed. It had been two days since the party at Roshi's. It
had been two days since her father came home and met up with her Grandpa Goku. It had
been, more importantly, two whole days since she and Trunks finally knew exactly what
they felt for each other. They were in love with each other and there would be no more
confused feelings, or so she was hoping. She thought back to the dream/vision she'd had
of the star and the perfect planet and the weird red moon. Maybe going to their old ship
would help her find this place they had to go to more easily. Pan walked across the room
to the kitchen. She figured she could pass the time by cooking, one of the many things
she had excelled at over the years but what do you expect living with the two sons of
Goku. She pulled her hair back into a bun on top of her head and began looking through
the cabinets.
(((((South of Capsule Corp.)))))
It was pouring down rain as Mirai Trunks approached his vessel. He stepped threw
some trees and bushes. They were all charred, some even to ash. Mirai Trunks sighed at
he walked a few more feet. What had happened here? He felt so bad for the inhabitants.
This was quiet a large forest. All of the animals would go without homes. Just like the
people in his time before they were all slaughtered. He could just see his ship from over
the rubble. He ran to it sopping wet. He dropped the duffle bag and slowly took a step
back. "God no. Why now? Why..." he trailed off. He looked to the east. He saw the
charred rubble of a town. "Damn the Kanass-jins!" he yelled out in the rain. This was the
town they destroyed just days ago and his ship got blasted with it. He had forgotten he
had trained with Gohan and the others before the Kanass-jins attacked. "I won't ever get
home now." He said. He sat down on part of his ship and rested his head on his hands.
Dad, Uub, I'll find a way to get back and help. Just hold up a little longer.
(((((Five Years From This Day)))))
Deep in the tropics Uub rested in a cave concealed by a waterfall he had been trying
for about a week to sense Vegeta's ki anywhere. He was either hiding and masking his
energy very well or he was dead. That was an eerie thought. That would mean Uub was
the only one left on the planet. He sighed and lied down. He looked upside down at the
waterfall ahead of him. The Kanass-jin must hate the warm weather if the haven't come
to kill me yet, Uub thought. He just hoped Vegeta was in a safe spot. "God, I wish
Trunks, Pan and Vegeta were here." He said with a groan. He closed his eyes. Silently a
being crept in. Uub didn't hear on sense it. "Wake up!" came a growl and a good kick in
the man's right side. He rolled into the wall and looked around wildly resting his eyes on
a badly beaten Vegeta. "Vegeta!" he cried out happily. He jumped up. "I thought you
were dead!" he said rushing over. "Just about." He said sitting down. "How did you find
me way out here?" he asked sitting back down as well. Vegeta reached out and turned
over Uub's left wrist. He ripped off his slightly torn wristband and showed him the inside
of it. Their was a very small tracking device hidden in the threads. "Bulma's tracking
system still comes in handy." He said. His late wife had created these during the war to
keep track of the Z gang. Everyone had about three hidden on them. Bulma had put one
under their skin after getting them to take it as a shot. Goten hated that thought, just like
his father would have. They both held a phobia of needles. Two more were hidden in
there clothing. Only she, Vegeta and Gohan had a remote to use the trackers. Vegeta's,
luckily, was still in good shape. "Bulma sure was smart to do that." Uub said. Vegeta
looked down. Thoughts of his wife still pained him at times. He wasn't really one to
show he loved them or anyone for the matter but he really missed her deeply. Uub
quickly regretted reminding him of her. It must have been painful. He remembered how
he lost his family. But for Vegeta, he'd only two people. But really you could say four,
couldn't you. Didn't he really care that the child Pan was carrying was his grandson. And
what of Trunks could you say he lost him too, though he's just in another time line. This
was confusing to Uub. "Uub," Vegeta began. He looked up at Vegeta, who over the past
five years had really become a kind of role model to him. He kept strong during anything,
even Bulma's and Bra's deaths. It made Uub tougher up too. "I know their weakness."
He said solemnly. I will avenge your deaths! He thought, not only to his family, born and
unborn, but to the entire world that was entrusted to him to protect by Goku all those
years ago.

"Were here!" Pan called seeing the wreckage from the window. Ship slowed and was
suspended in space. She walked across the room. She dug through the closet as Trunks
entered from the control center. Pan stepped back holding her new orange space suit. She
began to pull it on. She held the helmet in her hand and walked back to the window. She
looked around for the red moon. In the distance she saw a red light. Was that it! "Hey,
Trunks could you take us out to the East, over there?" she said pointing to the red light
she was seeing. "Sure." He said with a nod walking back the control room. The ship
turned and headed over. That was it! The red moon. "Okay! Stop it here." She called to
Trunks. The ship stopped and he walked back in. "Just wait a sec and I'll come to." He
said waking to get his suit on to. Pan nodded and put on her helmet and walked to the
back of the ship. Trunks appeared behind her soon after. The two walked through the
doors and all of the air was drain. They were thrown into the infinite blackness. Pan flew
first over to the moon. She kept a good distance from it though. She flew around to the
side left of the ship and began to find the spot she was in during her dream. She made it
close enough and looked around for any landmarks that would signal she was there.
There was what she needed. The ship, it was what she couldn't make out before. She
looked around through the space. Trunks was behind her. The star, what was the darn
start?! She cocked her head to one side and looked out into the darkness. A rare light, a
rare light... that kept playing in her mind. Bingo! She spotted it. "There it is!" she said
pointing to it. "Great!" Trunks said. "Pan, keep your eye on it and I'll go get the ship."
She nodded. Trunks was glad. It was cold out here so far from the galaxy's sun. Pan
floated in the nothingness until the ship came up. Trunks marked where it was and Pan
came on board. She removed her helmet once it was safe. She walked over to Trunks.
"Now we fly until morning." She said with a big smile. Trunks smiled to. They walked
together to the control room. Pan kept her hand in his the whole way, though short. They
were on their way to the second planet and an incident that would make them even closer.
I'm back! So, you like it? I'm trying hard to get to the good part. Heck it's almost chapter 20 and I'm not to item 2 yet, but from what I know you still like it.
Next Time – Planet Asrok is in site. The planet of the Bronze knights. Well, Trunks trusts Pan to land the ship while he's a little busy and she had a little accident. Anyway, Pan sees exactly why Trunks won't be much help to her this time. And will Kia make another appearance? What's Pan really got to do here? We'll find out next time! See ya!
