Siege And Assist
Part 7
By: Christina

"995…996…997…998…999…1,000" Pan groaned as she fell on her stomach. The troops were all in the arena with the gravitron on at 100x Vegetasai's normal gravity.

"Impressive." The King said to his son as the three Son men stood from their push-ups.

They then began to do a small sparring session on their own in an area that was deserted.

"You two against me." Goku said to Pan and Goten.

"No, you two against me." Pan smirked.

"Are you sure?" Goku asked.

"Positive." Pan said getting into a sparring stance. "Come on, let's give the King and the Prince something to talk about."

"Okay, your call." Goten said throwing the first punch.

*~*~*~*~*~*

All the warriors in the room had long stopped from their training and had all stood around to see the three Son men duke it out. So far, Pan had been doing really well against Goku and Goten. She was very fast, and was very skilled as well. Both of those seemed to combine to form a very unstoppable warrior. She wasn't as strong as her grandfather and uncle, but she was up there with the rest of the warriors. For ¼ Saiyajin, she was holding her own quite well.

Goku threw Pan into the nearest wall, but Pan used her feet to propel off the wall and switched her momentum against her grandfather. She flew at her grandfather and punched him. Ricocheting off him, she turned and took here assault on Goten who was coming up behind her. Kicking him in his stomach, it was his turn to face the wall.

Pan ran in front of her grandfather and was ready to strike when she used an energy blast into the ground to thrust herself into the air.

"Ka…me…ha…me…HA!" Pan yelled as her energy poured from her hands towards her grandfather. Goku smirked and also followed suit.

Goten looked up at his niece and his father deciding on joining the fun.

"Ka, me, ha, me, HA!" Goten also said as he threw his energy in with Goku's. Slowly, Pan's blast was being dominated by Goku's and Goten's. Soon, her energy gave way and Goten's and Goku's came hurling at her. She deflected the blast to her left and watched as the beautiful ball of energy whizzed past her and into Vegetasai's atmosphere.

"Impressive." Trunks said to his father who was also impressed nonetheless.

Pan lowered herself to the ground and nodded at her Grandfather and Goten, "Good spar."

"Yeah, you held your own quite well." Goku beamed with pride. Pan nodded her head and retreated over to get some water. After a 4 hour sparring session with her Grandfather and Goten, it did dehydrate her. She hadn't expected the other warriors training to be so weak.

'How is it I'm stronger than most of them here?' Pan questioned herself mentally. 'It probably has to do with the Son blood.' Pan smirked.

"You fight well." A voice protruded behind her. Pan looked behind her and found the Prince with his arms crossed.

"Thank you your highness." Pan bowed.

"Your name again."

"Pa…Itsu Son." Pan almost gave away.

"Itsu Son. You're good, but not good enough against me." Prince Trunks said as he crossed his arms over defiantly.

Pan's head bolted up. "Is that a challenge your highness?" She said with a clenched jaw.

"You're calling me on it, so yes it is."

"Give me ten minutes to regain my strength your highness, and I will see you in the battle arena."

"As you wish." The Prince said walking into the training grounds. He shed his bothersome cloak and medallion. He began to do his stretching and warm-ups. Pan couldn't help but stare.

'It's hard pretending to be a guy.' Pan whined with such a view in front of her. She stopped starring once she remembered that she was indeed a male and she wasn't supposed to be starring at other men. 'Need to concentrate, need to concentrate…'

Pan munched on some vegetables and drank some water to up her energy. 'I'm still a lady by heart, I have to watch my figure.'

She sat dazed and re-hydrated her body slowly as not to overdo it at one time. Goten and Goku were now beginning their crunches and push-ups again. The day was soon to end, and everyone had made up their two hours long ago.

"Here we go." Pan stretched feeling her energy boosted up again. She jogged over to the arena and also began stretching.

*~*~*~*~*~*

Pan was feeling fatigued at the moment. She hadn't regained all her strength as she thought she had. The other warriors had gathered again to see the newest fight in development. Prince Trunks fought brutally, but that didn't mean Pan wasn't doing well. She was putting up one heck of a fight.

"You're wasting my time." Prince Trunks snorted as he went up into the air. He flashed into Super Saiyajin and all eyes went wide. Of course for Goten and Goku, it wasn't anything new.

Trunks gathered energy in his hands to do his signature move.

Pan narrowed her eyes, "I'm not wasting anyone's time." She powered up also to Super Saiyajin. Her golden locks and emerald eyes shined with determination, and she also gathered her energy.

Prince Trunks stopped his energy gathering and stared down at amazement. 'He's a Super Saiyajin also!' He yelled in his mind.

Pan took this time to get him. "KAMEHAMEHA!" She yelled sending her energy hurling at the Prince.

Trunks smirked and got his gonads together. "FINAL FLASH!" He yelled plunging his energy downward towards her.

Their levels were at an equal when Pan sent the last of her energy coursing through her body to finish her attack. "HYAH!!!" She yelled boosting her energy some more.

Her knees wobbled beneath her and soon the energy came crashing around her from Prince Trunks' blast.

The smoke cleared and Pan lay on the ground seemingly lifeless.

"Oh Kami." Goku breathed in.

Goten stood calm. "She'll be fine father, you'll see."

Pan stood once she woke up, and looked up at the Prince. She smirked up at him and waited for him to land.

"Good spar." She said whole-heartedly.

"I suppose." The Prince said arrogantly. Pan snorted but saw that he was saying this to cover what he really meant. He walked away with a towel around his neck, and Pan also followed suit. She had trained hard today, and tomorrow was going to be far more vigorous. She no longer trained by the camp's schedule, but rather her own. And now, it seemed the King would allow her to do as she was doing.

*~*~*~*~*~*

Pan stretched her tired muscles as the week approached to an end. The King just announced that the troops have been given a day off, but Pan wasn't going to take it. She needed to get fit because she realized that power could come in handy sometimes…lots of it was always better.

"Shouldn't you be out with the rest of the boys?" A voice inquired behind Pan. Startled, she turned around to see the Prince standing there dripping with sweat.

"I needed to train." Pan shrugged.

"You always train so hard?" He asked as he walked away.

"Only when I have to."

The Prince stopped right there. He thought for a while, but continued onward with his journey back to his tent. Pan shook him off and began to do her training.

*~*~*~*~*~*

"We leave tomorrow!" The King wailed to the crowd. Battle cries were sounded out in anticipation, but Pan's heart raced. Goten, Goku, and "Itsu" were all assigned to head their own troops. Since they showed vast improvements and severe strength, it came to no shock that they were going to head their own platoons. Of course Goten and Goku naturally radiated with pride when they heard that their niece and granddaughter were among the best of the best, they still feared that she had accepted too much. She had never even been on a real siege before and, as we all know, watching videos will never be close to the real thing.

"TROOPS ASSEMBLE!" Pan bellowed to the group of men that had been assigned to her. She would be damned if they made a mockery out of her, so she spent a whole week training them until they were good enough to her liking. They assembled at once before the King and looked more uniform than the other squads. Pan took this into stride, but Goten and Goku secretly stood embarrassed.

The King called over the three commanding soldiers into a tent, and began to brief them.

"Tomorrow we will go and show Freeza what we stand for, and I want you all to know your responsibilities. The Prince and I will go and take care of Freeza, your orders stand as taking care of his minions, is that understood?"

"Yes your majesty, but is there any chance that perhaps you may need our help?" Pan asked.

Goku and Goten flinched at her question and wanted to reprimand her before the King did, but it didn't come.

"Your assistance will not be required. You and your men have your orders, so stick to them. You are excused."

"But your majesty…" Pan started.

"You are excused!" The King repeated.

"Yes sir." Pan bowed before leaving the tent with her Grandfather and Uncle.

*~*~*~*~*~*

"What were you thinking in there? You have to remember to hold your tongue Pan!" Goku scolded.

"I'm just looking out for the well-being of our King and our Prince."

"Looking out for the King and Prince? Pan, you don't have to! Just stick to your orders, you're lucky you're even among us right now. This is going to be your first siege, we've been on lots of these already. So just do what you're told and stop this nonsense already!" Goten stated.

"You're jealous." Pan said looking at him with realization.

"I am not."

"Yes you are." Pan said shaking her head in disbelief. "You can't stand that I'm so successful at my first siege than you were." Pan said.

"I am not."

"Yes you are. Well you know what, that's fine with me, I don't need you." Pan stormed off to her troops that still stood in their perfect form.

"ABOUT FACE! MARCH!" Pan yelled with vehement. The troops did as they were told and prepared themselves for the onslaught that the other commanding general had assigned them to.

Goten looked back at his troops and saw them lounging around carelessly. 'How did Pan get them to do that?' Goten thought miraculously.
