Siege And Assist
Part 23
By: Christina

Goku and Goten noticed that Pan had taken her eyes away from Freeza.

"Watch out Pan!" With little reaction time, she held her hands up to protect her vitals…her face.

With a vicious shove, she was sent into the ground. She looked at her Savior and was surprised to see King Vegeta had done it.

"Don't be so stupid girl! Pay attention. What do you think this is? A cheesy action movie? You have time to move, stupid! Use your head!" Pan looked at the King. She wasn't sure what she was more surprised at. His outburst, or the fact that he had helped her. She got herself together, and stood up quickly. Freeza had looked absolutely murderous at the moment. Pan flinched at the towering demon. True she was intimidated by him, but she couldn't afford to be.

She flew closer to where they all stood. At the moment, it was Trunks and Goten that were fighting Freeza. Their swift kicks, punches, and well thought out ki attacks seemed fruitless against Freeza who just stood there and swapped it away like a fly over food.

Pan looked over at Goku and Vegeta who just analyzed the situation. How could they not jump in at a time like this.

"Because one must know their enemy first Pan. Trunks and Goten understand this." Goku said aloud which scared her.

Pan nodded her head. 'I suppose it would be better if our two strongest warriors knew what they were up against rather than all of us not knowing what to do.' She stood in line and watched as Trunks and Goten got wearied out. Just as Goku and Vegeta were about to step in, Pan held her arm out to stop them.

"Wait, let me go."

"You don't have enough strength to fight him alone, girl." Vegeta informed all but nicely.

"Trust me." Pan said as she walked over to Freeza cockily.

"That girl will get herself killed." Vegeta muttered. Goku said nothing but waited in anticipation for what Pan had to offer.


She continued her prowl over to him. He already saw her coming and with a hint of amusement, he swatted the boys away with quick ki blasts.

"I see you've come to play with me Son Pan."

Her emotionless face sent shivers down Trunks' and Goten's back. That was perhaps one of the reasons why they continued to sit on the sidelines rather than intervene.

"You know that you're going to die, don't you?" Nothing. She stood there in her spot with her arms crossed facing an emotionless façade on her once soft features.

The boys sat on the side and just watched as a glaring match preceded between Freeza the Ice-Jin that came to conquer Vegetasai and Pan Son, the third class female warrior.

No movement. This was beginning to scare everyone aside from the two involved in the glaring match. It almost seemed as though they were telepathically yelling obscenities at one another. This wasn't good. Wait, movement. A smirk formed on Pan's lips as a look of amusement crossed Freeza's.

"You think you're ready to play with me, girl?" Without a word, a white flame erupted below Pan that slowly engulfed her entire body. Thinking it was going to singe through Pan's body, Trunks jumped up and attempted to swat her away from the magnificent fire.

Pan held her right hand up as if forming an imaginary force field around herself and sending Trunks to the ground. "Don't worry, I'm fine." Trunks was scared stiff. He wasn't sure which was worst, her not talking or her emotionless voice that almost sent ice his direction. He backed away and just allowed her to do what it is she had to do.

Vegeta and Goku smirked as they realized what was going on. How was it that this 3rd class warrior's daughter possessed it? Not even the King of Saiya-jins had this ability. Sure there was envy etched in his features, but there was also respect.

The air stood still as the glaring match continued. But Trunks and Goten were surprised when the blue aura that had engulfed her slowly dissipated. There stood a Pan with straight white hair with tints of blue and a silver suit with blue trimming that clung to her body and accentuated every curve and every crevice of every muscle her body had to offer.

Freeza stood seemingly un-phased by Pan's transformation. This would have been believable until Trunks and Goten realized that his tail had stopped its arrogant sway.

"You ready now?" a silvery voice chimed. It was seemingly serene but it also had the coldness of ice. Pan had transformed into something Trunks and Goten had never seen. They couldn't even sense her power level. Was it because it was too high or because it suddenly became nonexistent? They quickly got up just in time to avoid the two powering up. Pan smirked as her power level spiked and shook the entire planet. The cracks in the ground resembled only some of the power she had. Freeza also powered up in attempts to show he wasn't going to go without a fight.

The battle had officially begun.

A ki blast was sent Pan's way. Instead of stepping to the side and avoiding it, she engulfed it completely. It had no effect on her. In the blink of an eye, she was had left her spot, hit Freeza in several areas, and had returned to her spot again.

"You're too easy. Why do I even bother?" Pan smothered.

"Don't get too cocky girl, just kill him and be done with it," Vegeta sneered.

"Yes my King, but wouldn't you rather have him die a slow painful death. He had intentions to kill your family mind you. I don't suppose you don't think it'd be proper for me to dispose of him too quickly…that's exactly what he wants" that silvery voice charmed.

"Do it girl! You know your limitations."

"Hush your Majesty, let me play my game." Before Vegeta could call her an insolent brat, she had already begun her attack on Freeza. He was sent flying into the air with numerous ki balls chasing after his retreating form. As soon as he landed, she barraged him with more sending him deeper and deeper into a crater. She stopped her assault and flew down into the crater where Freeza was imbedded. "Now come on Freeza, don't pass out on me now," she taunted as she slapped his face a bit.

"You think this is funny girl?"

"Actually yes I doo…." He had his hand around her neck. For some odd reason, she wasn't able to get out of his grip. She looked into his eyes and saw as his eyes turned a deeper color. She would have been scared, but she felt like there was nothing to fear…that was until she felt his power level spike and eventually go into overload. He exploded with power. His hands emitted ki blast after ki blast into her neck until he finally decided to let her go. She coughed up the blood that had made it's way to her mouth.

"That was a good one. I never saw it coming," she commended.

"Finish him girl! You don't have time," Vegeta yelled.

"There's always time!" Before she could finish, she was sent hurling into the ground yet again. The weight on her was pretty substantial. She tried to push it off, but she realized that it was applying a pretty good force itself. "This was fun, but now it's time for you to go." She powered up some more and then she sent ki blast after ki blast to Freeza that lay on top of her. She pushed him off her and blurred to his side where she delivered a round-house kick to his face. He quickly grabbed her foot but was later met with a fist in the face. Truly he didn't see that coming. He released her from his grip and she sent punch after punch and landed every single one. She kicked his upper torso relentlessly and she could feel his breath leaving his body each time she did so.

As he lay on the ground, she jumped back and powered up – but she was met with no response.

"What's going on?" She wondered allowed. Her legs felt weak beneath her and she slowly sunk to the ground realizing she couldn't even support her own weight anymore.

"Go get her!" Vegeta ordered the two boys. They didn't question the King's orders and quickly grabbed her just as Vegeta and Goku jumped into action.

"I told you to finish him girl! I told you didn't have time!" Vegeta yelled.

"Why didn't I have time? Thirty-seconds ago I could've crushed him like a bug! Why can't I even power up now!"

"Your power has limitations you idiot. Listen to your King next time." Vegeta scolded as he and Goku attacked Freeza who had already time to dust himself off and regain some of his strength.

"Oh King Vegeta, what an honor," Freeza taunted.


"Pan, keep your eyes open. Pan! Keep them open!" Goten yelled down at her.

"I can't. I'm so tired…my body feels so weak…I have a headache…everything hurts on me…"

Goten heard a blast and watched as Goku was hurled into a nearby canyon wall. He nodded at Trunks and left their side to go and help his father and the King.

"Please, stay awake! I'm scared that if you go to sleep you won't wake up." Trunks said to her.

"Heh, wouldn't that be great. I could use that break."

"Pan, I mean permanent."

"Don't worry about me Trunks, I'll be okay."

"No, I want you to stay awake. Please. Stay awake."

Pan looked up in his eyes and saw sincere concern. Why was she feeling so light headed? What was this feeling of contentedness? Is this what it feels like to be dying? She felt around her neck and realized that it was now bleeding profusely from the spot where Freeza had attacked her.

This was it – she was dying!

She couldn't control the feelings that welled up inside of her. And then she saw what she feared…her life before her very eyes. Her vision blurred as she realized that tears were streaming down her face. She knew she was being weak in front of the Prince, but when you're dying, nothing matters anymore.

"You won't die Pan…you can't."

"Why is that?" She mustered.

"Because our story isn't done yet," he said trying to refrain from being cheesy. Pan looked up at his face and smiled at him.

"I can't, Trunks, I can't. This pain…is just overwhelming," She winced as she spit out blood.

"Heh, Itsu would have been able to handle it," Trunks sneered.

'Huh?' Pan questioned in her mind.

"You're too weak anyway. I should have guessed that someone like you would never be worthy of me. You truly do deserve to be a 6th class warrior."

"What did you say?"

"It's a shame there isn't a class lower than that. You and your family would fit right in. If anything, I think I shall create a new class just for you and your family," Trunks said emotionlessly as he dropped her head harshly onto the ground.

"Take that back," she winced as she sat up.

"Why should I? The truth should never be a hidden fact."

"TAKE THAT BACK!"


Goku was slammed into the rock wall just as Vegeta landed right on top of him.

"This isn't going to be easy," Goku winced in and out of consciousness. His clothing had ripped off long ago and his power level was shockingly low.

"Weakling," King Vegeta muttered just before passing out. Goku sighed heavily and with all his might, attempted to pick the King up, but he couldn't. The coldness of the dark soon sucked him in and he joined King Vegeta in the same state.


Goten noticed his father and the King embedded into the wall. Their lack of movement alarmed Goten, but he knew they had just passed out and hadn't died. Truly, that would have been tragic. He looked over at Trunks and could see a disgusted look on his face as he seemed to spat down at Pan. Goten wanted so much to get up and retort, but his entire body hurt. His head was bleeding somewhere behind his head, his hands were burnt from catching and deflecting so many ki attacks from Freeza, and he was sure that he had broken quite a few ribs already.

Goten wheezed as he attempted to push himself up.

"I'm sorry," Goten murmured as his strength betrayed him and sent him back into Vegetasai.


"You're worthless Son Pan…6th level trash," Trunks taunted before leaving her to where Freeza stood.

"I am not WORTHLESS!" She cried out as she powered herself up and stood. Power surged through her veins and took hold of her. The adrenaline rush was more than enough to get her off her feet and walk her to where Trunks stood.

"You are worthless Son Pan," Freeza added. Trunks smirked at his comment seeing his plan was working, Pan was furious.

"Don't call me worthless!" She screamed louder as her power level spiked. Trunks stood still as he noticed that her power level was rising and it wasn't stopping. What was going on here?

It seemed as though she were undergoing another transformation. Her body was soon enveloped in a gold aura. For some odd reason, it was so pure and beautiful – almost angelic. There was an eerie feeling to this transformation. Her ki disappeared and her body had tightened and toned itself once again. Her attire changed into that of silver and gold trim. Looking at her, she was fit for royalty. But right now she wasn't fit for anything but killing.

Her pupils had disappeared once again and she stood next to Trunks at the blink of an eye and looked over at Freeza. She looked in his direction.

"I'm going to need your help," her voice rang in his head. Trunks almost lost his composure when he realized that she was telepathically speaking to him.

He did nothing but nod his head.

"Don't think that just because you underwent t his new transformation that you can beat me," Freeza said as he glared at her. "You know I can easily take you out you stupid girl. For once your Prince was right, you are worthless."

Pan said nothing. She allowed her power level to show as she powered up.

"Ha, your power level is nothing!"

She smirked. "Ka…."

"You think you can take me down with that attack?"

"…me…"

"Fine, I will give you a freebie you stupid brat."

"…ha…"

"Give it your best shot!"

"…me…"

"DO IT!" he yelled opening his arms and allowing the attack to hit him.

"…HA!"

Freeza stood still as the attack seared his chest. "Is that all you've got!"

"FINAL FLASH!" Trunks yelled as he too joined in. Freeza felt the pain begin to throb in his chest and sent a blast to counter that attack.

The light that emitted from the attacks were vicious. Not only did it have the ability to blind anyone that wasn't prepared for it, but it was also able to stir the unconscious forms of Goku, Vegeta, and Goten. They all opened their eyes and were surprised to see two forms, one glowing in gold and the other in yellow, attacking Freeza. It seemed to be evenly matched and didn't seem like anything was going to happen.

"You can't beat me!" Freeza said as he added more power.

"Now!" Pan yelled. Her and Trunks sent all their energy into the attack.

Trunks felt his leg go weak and he threw the remainder of his energy at Freeza before falling to the ground unconsciously. Pan stepped forward as her golden aura began to expand. It expanded as far as the atmosphere could reach before it retracted back into her.

"HA!" She yelled louder as the gold that had been within her was sent through her attack.

The gold quickly engrossed Freeza's ki attack and continued it's path right into Freeza.

"NO!"

"HAAAAAAAAAA!" Pan continued. The attack encircled Freeza and again retracted into a small ball bringing him with it. Before the ball could disappear, it exploded into golden dust that settled where the great leader once stood.

"I did it…" Pan murmured as she sunk down to the ground on her knees.


Wowsers, what just happened? Well now that Freeza is out of the picture, what will Pan Son's future be like? Will her betrayal to King Vegeta be forgotten? Will she still be a 6th class warrior? Did Trunks mean everything he said to her? Find out next chapter!
