Ages: Trunks: 18, Pan: 16, Goten: 17, Bra: 15
My Love For You Is InsatiableAs the sun set on Vegeta-sei, Pan finally tore her puffy eyes away from the grave statue and headed home. She flew off the ground gently, looked behind herself at the statue and said:
"I will always remember you Dad. You taught me like no one else has ever done. I miss you so much along with Grandpa, and I won't stop feeling ashamed of your death until the Prince is dead, no matter what stands in my way...even if I die with the bastard."
When she got home, she saw that her Grandma was cooking as usual. Since the war, she had lived with them with her seventeen-year-old son Goten, Pan's uncle.
People never believed Pan when she said that Goten was her uncle because he was only a year older than she was. When her Father had been seven, her Grandpa had left to fight in a war and never returned for ten years until Gohan was seventeen.
Chi-Chi and Gohan had thought that he had died, but he had survived. And that was when Goten was conceived. A little later, Pan's father met up with her mother and she was born a year afterwards. Her father had died at the young age of twenty-nine when he should have survived to the around about 150 years old.
Chi-Chi felt her Granddaughter's ki behind her and she turned around. She saw that Pan's eyes were red and puffy so she walked towards her and put her hands on Pan's shoulders. Pan raised her eyes from the floor and their eyes connected.
"Pan, you need to get a hold on yourself. It's been six years; you can remember them, but you don't need to mourn them anymore. They…they want us to be happy," Chi-Chi said.
"Yeah, Grandma. You're right but…oh! You don't understand!" and with that Pan left the room and down the stairs to the basement where the gravity machine was. It had been her Father's.
Pan didn't eat that night and concentrated on her training. Tomorrow would be the day when the plan of revenge would go into action. She had formulated her plan a year after their deaths and had been practising and revising it ever since. She trained for most of the day except for the hours that she went to school, but that was part of her plan as well.
She along with everyone else knew that the Prince and his Mother, Queen Bulma were geniuses and loved to invent things, so for five long years she had studied physics and technology at school. She knew that she could get into the palace this way. She would pretend to show the Prince her inventions and kill him.
But she knew that it would be too risky, as she would be the number one suspect. It was only three months ago that the real plan came into her mind. News spread that the Prince and the Queen were looking for someone to help them with their inventions and general maintenance around the laboratory at the palace.
Pan had applied for the job, and had succeeded. First of all, she would work with him, get to know the people of the palace, the people of the palace get to know her, gain Trunk's and the peoples' trust and then move in for the kill. She went to bed late, with a Son smirk on her face.
Trunks woke early as today was the day that the inventor came in. He remembered going over her application and was surprised what she knew so he had picked her. He got dressed into his spandex two piece suit. It was blue and was in two parts: a sleeveless top and trousers. He put on his golden trimmed boots and went to train for a bit. The application also said that the person had to have a high power level in case of emergency and she had that as well. He was surprised at her strength for a female.
On the way, he bumped into his sister, still in her pyjamas. She had just broken up with her latest boyfriend and had probably been up all night. He felt sorry for here as she turned the corner into the kitchen.
He knew today was going to be one of those long days.
Pan was up, dressed and had eaten by five am, as she was really excited. She had waited all these years for revenge, and it was here. She remembered what her Grandpa had told her:
'If you listen to your heart, anything is possible. So in time of need, do what your heart tells you to do'
And this was what she was doing as her heart told her that nothing could stand in her way. Nothing.
She left at eight o'clock. Her family knew about the job and she had promised them that she would visit from time to time. She flew towards the palace at top speed, her heart beating with vengeance.
She had decided to make the Prince infatuated with her appearance so that he might show her things that she wouldn't be shown otherwise. She wore black spandex shorts that stopped above her knees. On her feet were boots that were padded. She had decided not to wear her armour, but had capsulated it with all her other belongings. Instead, she wore a red tank top, which had a low cut on the front of the neck, showing some cleavage. Her hair was down and tied in her orange bandanna.
She had used her real name on the form, but he had still picked her that meant that he didn't recognise her surname. She had purposely worn her bandanna to see if he could recognise her again from the time their eyes had connected at the valley and see if he shook in fear.
She eventually got to the palace gate. It was made of iron and had the Vegeta-sei crest on it. Two guards were standing by it, and they both did a double take when they saw her approach.
"I'm here to see the 'Prince'," she said saying the name in disgust, but the guards did not notice.
"So, you're the new student for the Prince, eh?"
"Yes," said Pan as she saw the guards' eyes staring at her in glee.
"Well, he made a right choice!"
"If you say so," replied Pan.
"He'll be having a lot of fun with you, I can tell you."
"Yes, I know. He'll be having lots of 'fun' indeed…"
At that moment she was let in and she sighed, disgusted at the guards. She found herself walking towards a huge door that was opened by another guard. She stepped in and was shocked at the beauty of the place. The hall had a red carpet and the walls were lined with many pictures. She was signalled to follow the guard and she lost count of how many turns she had to do.
Eventually, they came to the end of a hallway and there was a door. The guard pressed the computer at the side of the door and a blue haired woman answered.
Pan gasped as she recognised the woman as the Queen. Most people had seen the Queen in his or her lifetime, but she had not. The Queen and her two children were always seen out and about the city and the planet, as they wanted to be treated as equals. The King didn't really show his face around a lot. But Pan had stayed indoors for most of the time since the war and had only heard what her friends had told her.
The Queen let her in and the guard was dismissed. Pan gasped at the technology around her and then focused on the Queen herself. Her friends were right: she was really pretty. She was wearing a leather skirt that came down to above her knees. She had long boots that reached below her knees. She had a dark purple top and on top of that she wore a little armour. She had her lab coat on top of that. It all matched perfectly with her short blue hair.
"Hi," Pan said not really knowing what to say.
"Just call me Bulma, not Queen Bulma," she said smiling.
"Okay," Pan replied walking around the room.
It was quite big and had the latest technology. Computers here and there, printers, and loads of control panels as well.
"I see you like the technology here," said Bulma.
"It's amazing!"
"My son is training at this moment. He will be ready soon, so I'll take you to his quarters. You're awfully pretty, you know," said Bulma, leading the way.
"You think so?"
"My son will probably need to sit down!" Bulma giggled.
"Thanks for putting it that way, Bulma. What exactly does he need my help for?"
"Oh, you know. A bit of help on latest inventions, touching up on things. But I know that he really wanted someone to spar with and to have a friend. He recently had a fight with his friend and ended up putting him into a regeneration tank. I doesn't help being a Prince as well: girls all over him only for his status; it hurts him. You could cheer him up," Bulma said.
Pan almost felt sorry for him, but put that idea out of her head straight away. But if she did become close to him, it could bring her closer to achieving her goal. She would feel devastated for the King and Queen after his death, but she knew that Trunks couldn't be the only one in the family who was evil like that: Bulma and King Vegeta were probably just the same, although Bulma seemed nice enough. But for now, she had to be nice to all of them.
"Look around for a bit," said Bulma as she opened up the door to Trunks' quarters, "Tell him I'll be in the infirmary if he needs me."
Pan nodded and Bulma left. She let out a sigh of relief as she walked up the hallway. She walked towards the end of it and opened the door. It led to what seemed like a house. She looked around and liked what she saw. The lounge was painted a pastel white and so were all the other rooms. The rooms were joined up instead of having doors. He had a mini kitchen and a study room as well. She opened a door to her right to find a bedroom, and another door to find another bedroom and then another. She went into the last one as it was the biggest. It was tidy and spacious.
She then saw another door joined to the bedroom. It couldn't be a bathroom as the bathroom door was opened. She opened it up to find herself in a lab. It was a bit smaller than the one she had been in, but it still had many computers. Pan also noticed that on one side, there was a desk. On the desk was a photo frame with a picture in it. She recognised the King: Vegeta, Bulma, Trunks' sister Bra and the man himself Trunks. She studied the picture closely. It was quite recent. Trunks wasn't in the super saiyan form and it was the first time she had seen him for a long time in normal form. His light blue hair was in curtains by his side just like it had always been, but she could tell that he was older. He had a smile over his face.
She turned her gaze from the picture. She would give up anything in the world just to be a family like they were. She could feel her eyes threatening to spill tears, so she quickly fled from the room. As she came out, she heard a beeping noise to her left. She recognised it as the gravity returning to normal in a gravity chamber.
Okay, Pan. Relax and don't kill him when he comes out
The gravity door opened and out stepped Trunks. He didn't appear to notice her at first as he tossed his towel onto the bed.
Pan did a double take as she stared at him. He was in super saiyan form. His golden coloured hair was split into two parts and he had two bangs stranding down his face. He had drips of perspiration dripping down his brow, making him look sexy. She admired his toned muscles on his arms, as he had no sleeves. Through his spandex top, she could see a perfectly formed six pack. His tail swished behind him.
'I…he's really handsome...and strong by the strength of his ki' Pan thought. She then mentally hit herself, and closed her mouth that had been opened, How can I say that? Don't go falling for his looks, it's just like a disguise to get people to like him
"Hey," Pan said to get his attention. She put her hands on her hips, to see if her infatuation worked.
Trunks wheeled around to look at the spot where the voice was. He met with Pan. First he looked at her feet and trailed his super saiyan eyes upwards. He admired her boots and her slender yet muscular legs. He saw that she was wearing black spandex shorts. Her tank top was quite short for her so it showed her flat stomach. He saw that she had a black symmetrical tattoo that looked like flames on either side of her belly button which showed that her family were of the first class and that she had relatives who were in the elite forces. Her tail was wrapped around her waist.
He continued his thorough check of her, his eyes lingering on the top of her chest for a while and then up to her face. The orange bandanna caught his eyes first and then he admired her face. Her delicate features and her smile called out to him. Then he looked into her raven eyes and was locked into them.
Something passed between the depths of Pan's raven eyes and the Prince's azure eyes, but it was over in a fraction of a second when Pan averted his gaze.
She must be the inventor, Pan Son. She's beautiful, really beautiful. I can't believe my luck that the inventor is someone who is both smart, powerful and incredibly gorgeous
"So are you going to show me around, or stare at me all day?" Pan asked, getting his attention.
Trunks blushed subconsciously and returned to normal state, suppressing his ki.
He looks even better that way Pan thought and again she cursed herself.
"So, you're Pan Son, right?" Trunks asked, crossing his arms.
"Yeah, that's me. I'm your new trainee, as you can teach me more than I already know," she replied, smiling. She found it easy to be nice to him.
"Give me a sec and I'll show you around the palace and the science wing…and I also have to test you."
"Test me?" asked Pan.
"Yeah. It said on the form that you had to have a high power level, so you will spar with me in the gravity room and seeing that you're from an elite family, you should be able to spar in a gravity room," Trunks said, looking at her face.
"Me? Spar with you?" she said sarcastically as if she was afraid of his high power level, "you would probably kill me."
More like I'll whip your ass she thought.
"Like I would kill someone as clever and cute as you," Trunks said, immediately blushing at his slip.
I have you right where I want you Trunks Pan thought.
"So you think I'm hot? Show me around and I'll tell you what is hot or not," she said seductively, brushing past him and purposely making contact with him. Her face screwed up in disgust.
She's perfect in everyway he thought blushing and turning around to follow her.
"Pan," he said and she turned to look at him, "have we ever met before?"
She smiled, "It depends how you mean it."
"Well, your eyes look familiar to me and I feel as if I know you from somewhere. It's as if when we first made eye contact, it felt as if it had happened before."
"Maybe we have. Maybe we haven't," she replied, her raven eyes flickering.
Trunks showed her around the whole palace in the next two hours. As they got towards the end of the tour, Pan met Bra for the first time. She thought that she was sweet, even for a fifteen-year-old. She wondered if she was evil as well just like her brother, as they must have got it off their parents. But, strangely she seemed nice enough.
When they got to the science wing that was joined onto the infirmary, they were told that there had been an accident causing the computers to shut down and the spillage of a dangerous chemical. Trunks told Pan that that was where she would have been working for the first week or so because his Mother wanted help with something, but now she would do the work he would have assigned her to do after his mother, first.
Pan asked that why wasn't she going to work with his mother in the other lab where they would do their work until the lab was fixed and the reply was that the equipment that was needed had been damaged. Pan was happy at this answer as she could find out more about him in his lab rather than in Bulma's.
"Where am I going to sleep and stay exactly?" she asked him.
"Well, my father is having a conference right now and there are people from lots of different planets in the palace. Well, they aren't exactly people, more like things. The only spare rooms are those in my quarters that have their own door to the lab," he said.
"One of those rooms will do fine. As long as it have access to a lab, I can train in your gravity room from time to time and see you, it's the best room I could get," Pan said, hoping to get his attention.
She did as his cheeks went red by only a small amount.
So far so good, Pan. You are good at this and you are keeping your calm. Make him think that you're interested in him and help him in times of need and he'll trust you. Then you can get the information you want and make him pay, slowly…ever so slowly
The rest of the day went by quickly. She e-mailed her parents to tell them that everything was fine and then went out to get a bite to eat as Bulma was busy with the lab, Trunks was helping her and Bra was out shopping. She got used to her room, set up her capsulated desk, and unpacked all her belongings. The end of the day drew near and Pan went to bed early. She left a message on Trunks' intercom to tell him.
"Dad, Grandpa," she whispered into the night as she lay in bed before she went to sleep, "I know that you're watching me and helping me through my life and soon I'll be able to get rid of that part of me that wants revenge. I'll go slowly and make sure it hurts for your sakes. Please guide me in what I do. I…I miss you so much."
She turned to look at the window. Moonlight streamed in.
Trunks thought that I was his gift from heaven. He's such a fool. If he hits on me, then I'll get to know if he has killed anyone else in his time, or he might even confess to me about what he did without even knowing who I am. He doesn't look or seem evil though
Pan closed her eyes in frustration as she realised what she had just said.
Pan, get a hold of yourself. You must stop trying to fall for him. Damn, I can't believe I just said that as well. What is happening to me? Does it matter if he's cute
Pan cursed herself even more and fell asleep feeling ashamed of what she was thinking. Little did she know that her dreams would be filled with his face.
Trunks couldn't get to sleep that night either because of two things. He thought that Pan was the most beautiful woman he had ever met. She was perfect in every way and had a cool personality. But the other thing was the real reason he had wanted an inventor in the first place. He knew that there was something on its way to Vegeta-sei, though he didn't know what.
He had a feeling in his gut that told him this and it was the same feeling that he had felt before the War of Tyrants. He knew that it meant that something bad, like a war, was going to happen, and that was why he had wanted someone who was smart to help him work out what was happening. He didn't want to get his Mother involved as she had had an encounter with near death before.
He went to sleep, dreaming about a girl with raven eyes.
