Chapter 28

recovery

Pan's POV

Goku handed me off to my father as Bulma explained to them all that had happened and about my voice. I nudged my fathers shoulder for us to go into the house and he responded with a saddened smile. He walked me into the house and I went up the steps slowly taking one foot at a time. I hurt so badly. He took me to my room and everyone gathered in.

My mom sat on my bed and my father stood behind her. "Pan we came as soon as we could. Sorry it took so long. But we were on an important business trip." she said smiling. I didn't care to smile back to I looked away from her and just stared at the light on the ceiling. "But we have to go here soon Pan." she said with sadness in her voice. "I hope you'll be okay with us leaving you with Bulma." she said even sadder.

My Father now sat beside me mother and looked at his watch. "Hun, we have to hurry." he said to my mother and then lifted her from my side. "Please rest easy Pan." he said and walked out of the room. That was just like my father. I suddenly remembered my first visit back to earth and how my mother told me she was pregnant. I couldn't say anything to her and so I didn't try to stop her from leaving when she kissed me on the head and followed my father.

I was left by them again when I needed them the most. Well I guess I didn't need them to much now, I had the others. But wait they wouldn't be here forever. Bulma came forward and checked forehead to make sure I had no headache and then pulled something out of her pocket. I looked like a beeper. "Here Pan…" she said placing it in my hand. "it's a locater. I have another one with me so that it will tell were you are in the house." she said and showed me the button to press. I nodded to her.

She smiled in return and Stood up from the bed and walked to the door. "Well I am going to make some breakfast. You need to get some meat on them bones." she said happily and closed the door behind her.

Chi-Chi was now the one to come forward and try to comfort me. "Oh Pan." she said smiling and whipping the hair from my face. "I hope you get better soon." she said and continued to stroke my head. As she continued to stroke my head I suddenly remembered the talk we had on my first visit. 'Chi-Chi passed away soon after you left.' they said and with that I turned my head and looked at her closely. She didn't seem as bright as she usually did. She was pale and hunched like any old person but I could tell by the look of her she was in pain. She would die soon. I felt like it was me, my fault, like I was obligated to do something. But what? She'd die no matter what I would do. I couldn't' stop it. I finally lifted myself from the bed and Held her gently. It hurt me to do so, physically and mentally but I didn't care. I really didn't know when the next time I would see her.

She held me and stroked my hair in return and finally we broke apart and she helped me lay back down. "I'll have to leave soon but I will help Bulma cook breakfast. After that me and Goku will have to leave." she said and stood. Chi-Chi motioned for Goku to follow but he did not.

"I want to speak to Pan." he said and she nodded and left just the way everyone else had. In the real world it had been a few months since the last I had seen my grandfather (he is grown up in this) but in my non life I had seen him 3 days ago (cause she was sleeping for two days). Now it was Goku who sat by my side. He was concerned I could tell.

I didn't smile I didn't show any emotion beside a clear completion which I had learned from Vegeta so well. I thought about the battle I had just fought so long ago. "Pan…" he said sternly. And looked away from me and out the window. It was a clear blue sky and the sun shown in perfectly to give a little heat. "King Kai contacted me." he said and looked back to me and my nerves went wild. What was going on? What did I have to do with King Kai talking to him? Was it about what happened? He continued as my eyes dance with the flames of fear. "it has something to do with the Dragon Balls." he stated and now my mind went Wild. The memory floated back to me as I was just about to make the wish. As my grandfather came to my side in the moment and was about to speak. My head began to pound and I leaned forward and clenched my head with my elbows resting on my knees. Why did I have to have these flash backs. WHY? I screamed mentally as I twisted my face in pain. I felt my Grandfather rest his hand on my shoulder "Pan Please relax." he said and I forced the memory and feeling out of my mind quickly as I could as I slowly eased my body back down onto the bed still holding my face. The headache soon passed. "I'll talk to you later about it. Just relax for now and rest easy. Everything will be fine." he said and flashed me his kid like smile and left the room.

I was finally alone. But what now. I didn't really want to be alone. I was left with my own thoughts now. My own pains and anger. Did Goku know what I did? I should have guessed that my wish only effected those who had dead in the after world. I didn't effect anything else. Damn-it This was going to haunt me. What was I going to do? I don't want them to remember? The pain was to much for me and I knew they couldn't take it. I couldn't tell everyone what happened and then expect them to think that I'm not crazy.

I couldn't stay sitting down anymore. So I slowly swung my legs over the bed and stood. I wobbled a bit and then began to take step by step till I was near the wall so I could brace myself. I left the beeper on my dresser and left the room. It hurt to move, down to my fingers. It hurt but I would have to stretch them out if I wanted them to feel better. I kept my head looking towards the ground to I wouldn't feel the pain in my upper back and my neck. I always had trouble in this hallway I thought as I felt myself place my foot wrong and I tripped. I landed on my hands and knees and the pain surged thru my body but not a thing escaped from my lips.

"You should learn how to walk brat!" I heard a vice and snapped my head up to see were he was. He stood at the stairs looking at me. I Clung to the wall and tried to lift myself but it was useless. It hurt too bad. I continued to try but nothing. I heard his foot steps and he was standing over me now. I felt his hand wrap around my arm and he began to pick me up. I brushed his hand off and continued to try to stand on my own. I was getting frustrated and my face grew red with anger. I once more felt his hand on my arm and I looked up at him. There were tears in my eyes now. I couldn't help it, I was helpless now, I didn't want anyone's pity or help. I could do it myself, or I more or less wanted to do it on my own. I brushed his hand away again and just sat there looking at the ground. "BRAT!" he spoke with his annoyed voice and Grabbed my arm roughly and I opened my mouth to yelp in pain but only a breath came forward. He saw this and loosened his grip "Stop being so stubborn." he said and took a hold of my other arm.

He lifted me abruptly and I felt another wave of pain go threw my body threatening to make me collapse again. I grabbed to Vegeta's shoulders and let my legs dangle and The strain of my arms hurt very much. He grabbed a hold of my waist and held me up. I looked down shyly and very ashamed. I think I reached the lowest low at this point. I felt like all my pride had seeped from my body leaving my with no independent bone in my body. I looked back up at him and began to try to speak but nothing. I shook with my frustration. "Calm down brat" he said sternly "Were is it your were going to?" he asked finally getting patient with me.

Since I couldn't speak I pointed down the stairs. I really couldn't think Of any motion to show him kitchen and then I was shocked. He leaned down and lifted me from the back of my knees just like he had before when he carried me to the paramedics. I blushed and then let my facial expression relax as he took me down the stairs. I wanted to be closer to him to feel his perfect build but I didn't want to startle him or scare him away in any shape or form. Soon we go to the bottom of the stair and he let me to my feet. The strength had returned but only a bit. I held to his arm as I stepped further into the kitchen. My grandmother and Grandfather had already left and Bulma and Bra were setting the table.

They looked up at me and were kind of shocked to see Vegeta helping me so I let go of his arm and then began to brace the wall on the way to the table. I grabbed the closest chair to the wall and sat quickly cause I felt like they would give way. "Pan you should have asked for help." she said worried as she set the food on the table. She dished out my portion and set it in front of me. "Here, if you need any help just ask me." she said as she sat down beside me. Bra sat on my other side and Vegeta sat opposite of me. It kind of felt weird to have them all surrounding me. I looked around curiously and Bulma caught my glance "Trunks stayed with some friends the other night." she said and I felt relieved. I guess history had changed its course, I wasn't raped but the bad thing was I was mute and helpless. I smiled to myself sarcastically and I nodded to Bulma. I leaned myself close to the table and picked up my spoon and rested my arm on the table. I really wasn't all that hungry but I slowly ate so it seemed to fill me faster. For once at Bulma's house there was no conversation.

But suddenly I heard a yelp from bra as she stood. "I'm going to be late for school." she said and ran to the living room and then grabbed her bag which lay by the couch. "See you when I get back. I'll tell the teacher your sick, Okay pan." she said and ran out the door.

I sat the spoon down and leaned back in the chair accosted. Bulma looked at me "you need help Pan?" she asked and I shook my head. I was done. Bulma got up and went to a small desk that was in the corner of the living room and grabbed two things off of it and came back to me. She placed them on the table in front of me "This may help a bit." she said It was a pad of paper and a Pen. I took it and began to write.

I feel like trying to walk a bit

I can't stand sitting down anymore

I think I might go to the

Backyard.

She took the pad after I was done writing and read it. "You need any help." I shook my head again and I stood. "Well then I have some things I need to get to then. Just use that beeper I gave you." she said and began to clean the table.

Vegetra then stood up and began to walk off. "Were are you going Vegeta?" Bulma turned and asked.

"I'm going to take a shower." he said as he kept walking up the stairs.

I then went past Bulma who had begun to put the dishes in the dish washer and I went out the back door. I looked around a bit as I braced the wall and then took a step on the side walk. I looked at my feet as I steadily placed them on the sidewalk. I wouldn't have thought this would be this hard. I finally made it to my destination. I was at the GR, I hit the door switch and it lifted open. I stepped in and headed for the closet. I went thru the stuff and found the black fighting gi. I did my routine of undressing and I braced the wall as I stretched it over my body. I had to stretch my muscles and get them used to this again. I wasn't going to sit around and wait for my body to heal on its own.

I began to stretch slowly up and down and I sped up as I felt my body getting used to it. It hurt like no other. It felt as if my body was still cramped but it wasn't. I felt the sweat build up on my face and over my body. I felt that my body was getting used to it so I walked to the center council and hit a few buttons and kicked up the gravity. My body was weak but I would push it as hard as I could till it gave way. I stretched again and this time I tried a few push-ups and I could Only do a few. I lifted myself and used the council as a brace but my hand slipped and I hit a few of the buttons and I felt my body slam against the ground. I was on my side and I forced myself to my back.

I couldn't move, I couldn't do anything. It was hard to breath and I began to feel claustrophobic. I wish I had the beeper that Bulma gave me but I had left it in my room and Vegeta had already finished his morning training, he wouldn't be back in here till later in the afternoon. I would suffocate before then. My lungs couldn't last.

Vegeta's POV

For some reason I felt sorry for the brat. I was worried d about her, I couldn't help it. I noticed it last night. She was on edge at supper I knew it was because MY brat that she was acting that way. She seemed scared of him. But why would she be scared of HIM of all people. Something was really wrong with her but I really couldn't put my finger on the problem.

I got dressed after I dried off from the shower. I felt the urge to check up on the brat, she really does have a lot of pride. I couldn't believe that she began to cry in the hallway when she couldn't stand. I know now that she hates to helpless. I have had that feeling a few times before but I guess her situation was different. It doesn't help much with her parents always gone. She doesn't even know her mom's pregnant.

I walked out of the bathroom and went down the hall way and down the stairs. I looked out the window and didn't see the brat. I waked out the back door and looked around. She couldn't have gone far and then a thought passed my mind. I quickly looked over to the gravity room and I flushed with worry. Like I said before. I don't know why I worry about her so much, I just don't' know, I can't help it. I ran to the door and hit the button to open it. It went up slowly and I stepped in to feel the full pressure of the gravity. It was damn near on max. I looked down to see a helpless and paralyzed pan pinned to the floor.

Pan's POV

It seemed like a miracle, he was standing there now and he would save me. I saw him rush to the panel and hit the Gravity release button and then I felt at ease. I felt like I was floating but still in pain. It hurt so much but I dealt with it. I could breath and I took 3 deep breath before I finally began to breath normally. Vegeta knelt down beside me now and lifted me up into a sitting position. "BRAT! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!" he yelled. I felt stupid and even more helpless. I felt like I was a little kid again and I was being scolded even worse I was being yelled at my the man I had fallen in love with in my non life. I grew back my stern face but my eyes were speckled in pain. Even now I caused nothing but problems.

I wish I could speak so I could tell him what happened but I could not and even if I had he would have told me I was being stupid and I was being difficult. I looked away from him. I used all the energy in my body to get away from him and sat up on my own. I forced myself to my knees and he only looked at me and didn't help I didn't want it. I just wanted to get away. Away from him, and from this situation. I stood up and wobbled a bit and I knew I would have to rest a bit before I began to walk again.

I stumbled over to the wall and I violently slammed against the wall and let my legs rest only a bit. I didn't want any help any more. I just wanted to stop troubling everyone and get away from my life and non life.

I hit the button to open the door and held to the door way fro support. An I was lifted once more by Vegeta. I Gasped as he did so cause I wasn't expecting it. "Brat your going to have to let go of your pride if you want to get better he said not looking at me as he walked me into the house. And to my bedroom… he laid me on my bed and then walked back to the door to leave. "You better stay here the rest of the day and if you need any help to do anything. Use this" he said and threw the beeper at me. It landed at my side. He left.

SO YEAH… NO I AM NOT LEAVING YET SO YEAH… I WILL GIVE YOU GUYS A WARNING AHAEAD OF TIME. LOVE YOU ALL AND HOPE YOU LIKE IT… HEY DON'T FORGET TO EMAIL ME.
