Chapter 3
Aya: Hi! Oh, lets just start the story!
POV Omniscient: Forest:
"Uh... I'm Pan," the girl replied.
"That's weird name," Kuwabara said. Yusuke just stared. This was the power that they were supposed to find? She looked like she had never seen a fight in her life, and yet, she had so much power.
"Hi! I'm Botan, guide to the afterlife," Botan said introducing herself. The girl, Pan stared blankly.
"Kuwabara," stated Kuwabara. He had caught Yusuke's glance and didn't say anything else.
"Suichi Minamino, but you can call me Kurama," Kurama said (NO DUH ITS KURAMA!).
"Yusuke Urameshi," Yusuke said. When Hiei didn't say anything, he added, "The short guy is Hiei."
"Hn."
"Uh, nice to meet you?" Pan said uncertainly. She had no idea where she was, who these people were, why they were so powerful and how to get home.
"What are you doing out here?" Yusuke asked.
Oh, great. Just the question I wanted... Pan thought miserably. "I have no idea."
"You mean you don't know?" Botan asked surprised.
Pan shook her head. "Uh-uh. The last thing I remember is that one second I was at the World Martial Arts Tournament, the next I was here."
"That's strange, I've never heard of that tournament," Kurama said thoughtfully. Remember, he's older than all of them except Botan, I'm not sure about her...
"We don't have any records of her in Spirit World either," Botan said. "If we did, I would know."
"You wouldn't happen to be a demon, uh, would you?" Kuwabara asked, pointing at Pan who shook her head, no. "Oh..."
"I'm a saiyan?" Pan said.
"What's a... 'saiyan?'"Kuwabara asked.
"It's a, uh...," she stopped. Her father had told her not to tell anyone, and she had already told them that much. The others looked at her expectantly. Or it lest, until Kurama spoke up.
"This isn't the best place to talk. I say we go to Yusuke's."
This was followed by a whole-hearted "I agree," from Kuwabara. Yusuke groaned.
"Why my house?"
"Because its the only one big enough big enough for all of us," Kurama replied. With that, they walked away with Pan at the center of the group. As they neared the city, Pan began to sense an all too familiar Ki.
Yusuke sensed her uneasiness. "What's up?" She was about to answer when a voice interrupted.
"I finally found you! The granddaughter of Goku. Now you shall pay! Ahahahahahaha!" Pan looked in the direction of the Ki, because the voice seemed to come from all around. She saw Frieza. (Don't ask how she knows Frieza, she just does.)
"Do you know him?" Kurama asked.
"Yes. My grandpa killed him... twice," Pan replied. "The second time was in HFIL."
"Oh."
Frieza threw an energy ball at them. Everyone except Pan jumped out of the way. Pan simply caught it, and threw it back along with her own attack. Frieza dodged and charged at her. She blocked his attack and returned it with a kick that sent him flying. He caught himself, flew up higher and began charging a Death Ball. (Yay! I got it, it took me five minutes to find the right attack!) Pan saw this and gathered the power so she could use a powerful Ki blast. She would try to keep him from destroying this place.
Yusuke and Kuwabara stared open mouthed at Pan. Hiei looked bored and Kurama watched calmly, as always.
Frieza shouted "Death Ball!" as he threw his attack and Pan shouted "HA!" as she launched her own defense. The two attacks met with an explosion of power. Pan's attack stopped the Death Ball but didn't destroy it as she had hoped. She had gotten a lot stronger since her last fight with Frieza. (I'll put that in another story.) She increased the power of her blast. The Death Ball vanished, and as the Ki blast hit Frieza, so did he.
Pan lowered her hands breathing heavily. Kuwabara gave a low whistle. Botan was just as surprised as the rest of them. Even Hiei was, although he didn't show it.
Wow, so she really is powerful, Yusuke thought.
Meanwhile, Omniscient: Goku:
"I wonder what happened to her," Goku said when they met at the restaurant. "She can't use Instant Transmission and if she could, I should still be able to sense her."
"I don't get it. She was right there when that thing opened and then she was gone," Trunks said.
"Where could she have gone?" Goku complained.
"Where did who go?" Ch-Chi asked, coming in followed by Videl. They both had an armload of bags. "Where's Pan?"
"She's... uh..." Trunks said cautiously. No one was eager to face Chi-Chi's wrath.
"She disappeared," someone said matter-of-factly. (Guess who it was!) Vegeta was standing there. Videl dropped her bags.
"WHAT?" Chi-Chi screeched. She too dropped her bags. "YOU MEAN SHE'S GONE?" People were staring at her. Leave it to Chi-Chi to make a scene.
"She disappeared about an hour ago," Trunks said quickly. "We can't even sense her Ki." He could tell that it didn't make it any better. "We're going to contact Kabito Kai."
A voice suddenly interrupted. (No, its not Frieza.) "Goku! Are you there?"
Goku smiled. "Hey, Kabito!" Have you found anything out about Pan yet?"
"No, we're trying to contact Koenma. He basically does what we do except in another dimension," Kabito said. "She appears to have completely left this dimension.
Aya: There, this chapter is done!
