"PAN!" Trunks roared in frustration unable to feel Pan's ki clearly. He knew she was alive, but he couldn't find her ki under all the other kis on the planet. Her ki must be below most humans, she must have gotten hurt. He needed to find her soon!

"Keep looking, if you find her heighten your ki and I'll rush over," Trunks had ordered last time he passed Tapion, and Goten, when the ship had crashed. They had been searching for Pan since the crash on this forsaken planet. 'She must have gotten really hurt when her seat was sucked out of the ship, it was all my fault, I should have caught her, held her, something,' Trunks thought angrily trying to concentrate on their bond, he could feel her alive, but she wasn't all there, provably unconscious.

♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠

Slowly opening her eyes, Pan found herself lying in someone's bedroom, the bed was comfortably soft, and she was entirely confused to where she was. She felt so tired and weak, every bone of her body ached as if she had been sparring for a long period of time.

"Trunks?" she asked looking around herself, he wasn't here, and she couldn't feel his ki in the room. "Trunks!" her voice came in a whisper, she was having problems speaking out loud. As she tried focus on his ki, she found him in her head thinking all sorts of thoughts about having to find her, hoping she's all right, how he's been up 4 days straight trying to find her. Following those thought came strong mental images of him flying over homes and agricultural areas in search of her.

"Trunks?" she asked wondering if he could hear her, trying to get him to stop worrying so much, and to put some of his stress to rest. She could see him stop in mid air looking around to see where her voice had come from.

'Pan?' he asked hopefully looking for her through their bond, finding her as she had found him. 'Are you ok? Raise your ki slightly I'll come a get you, I've been looking for you,' he said in his head feeling relief fill his body as he heard her voice.

'Ok, I'll try. I feel so weak and my body hurts badly,' she told him heightening her ki enough for him to feel her.

'I know, I'm on my way, it's okay, I'll get there as fast as I can,' he said soothingly, amazingly calming her nerves, he was close; he'll be there in a matter of minutes.

♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠

"Do you sense that Krillin?" a man dressed in a turtle shell asked his bald headed pupil as they felt a new more weaker ki become noticeable, it's been a week since the aliens arrived, and in all that time this ki had never appeared. The other kis were much powerful, but this one felt weird.

"It's different than the others, not powerful, but (scratches his head) I don't know maybe more powerful, the ki is confusing," Krillin says making no sense. "It's not too far from here, want to go check it out?" he asked hoping his master said no.

"Yes, we must keep our ki low as well, and be quick, the highest ki is heading towards that new power, we only have a few minutes, let's go," master said taking off at a run. They had been hunting for food, near a few farms when the new power appeared.

"But Master Roshi, shouldn't we call Tien or Yamcha before we get into trouble or something?" Krillin asked becoming nervous after realizing the strong ki was indeed heading in their direction.

"No, we only want to investigate this new ki, not start an all out war, in which we will undoubtedly be killed in," Roshi shook his head having a rare moment of wisdom, or so thought Krillin.

"This isn't a good idea," Krillin mumbled as he ran after his Master who was already running towards the farm fields.

"It's coming from in there," Roshi pointed at a two-story farmhouse grabbing onto a branch and waiting expectantly as if the branch would pull him up.

"Well? What are you waiting for, Krillin! Carry me up, I can't climb because of my back," Roshi yelled at the bald man, receiving an exasperated sigh, and lifted up Roshi with some effort.

"You could help and pull on the branch with arm strength," Krillin whined struggling.

"It will pull my back, anyway you need some exercise," Roshi said lazily getting into the open window on the second floor, leading to an empty hallway. "Good, well hurry up Krillin! You're getting lazy, boy! We don't have much time."

"Easy for you to say, I carried you up," Krillin mumbled to himself making inside the window. Walking behind Roshi as they stopped in front of a door, inside must be the power source.

"Open the door Krillin," Roshi ordered not wanting to do it himself, moving a little away from the door, as if expecting an attack. Krillin sweat dropped gulping as his shaking hand reached for the doorknob. "Wait!" Roshi whispered all of the sudden making Krillin jump.

"What?" Krillin asked annoyed and unnerved.

"Good luck, nice knowing you if anything," Roshi whispered moving farther from the door.

"Gee, thanks, Master Roshi," Krillin whispered back sarcastically really unnerved now. Turning the knob soundlessly, pushing it open slowly, and peeking his head around the door, he found the room quiet, and nothing blasted at his head, even better he wasn't dead.

Both Roshi, and Krillin stepped into the room quietly, looking around the room, finding the person emitting the weird ki lying on a bed, dead asleep. It was a sickly woman, and in close inspection they realized she was very, very beautiful. Krillin nearly lost his life keeping the perverted Roshi from taking advantage of the sleeping goddess.

"That alien is coming towards this pace, no doubt about that, he must want this woman, poor thing, I wonder what he might want to do with her," Krillin shook his head feeling sorry for the girl, putting aside the weird ki signature. It was provably because she was sick.

"Hurry, we must take her," Krillin finally said moving to her side, and pulling her to a sitting position, wrapping the thick covers around her body, and picking her up as gently as possible so she wouldn't wake and panicked. Her ki began to rise, and the coming ki picked up speed if possible.

"She's not fully asleep, pinch her nerve in between her shoulder and neck, knock her out if you want to take her with us," Roshi said already out of the room. Krillin did as told watching as her eyes tried to open before they closed completely and her ki disappeared as she became unconscious.

"Hurry, he is only seconds away," nodding they jumped out the window, and as fast as possible away from the farmhouse, arriving at the coast where a small bout awaited them. "We made it, hurry turn the engine on and let's go before he arrives at the home and doesn't find her there," Master Roshi ordered hearing the engines roar, and feeling the bout speed off towards his small island in the middle of the ocean.

♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠

"Pan! Pan!" Trunks screamed in pure frustration unable to believe someone would take her from him, hat someone would dare do thing to him, the Prince of Saiyans, this was an unforgivable insult! Who ever did this would pay dearly, he would make sure of that.

"Blasting out of the deserted house, and into the air Trunks powered up, still hearing Pan's last words before she was cut off by one of her kidnappers.

'They are going to take me, Trunks! Please help me, I don't feel well, I can't even protect myself or even try to escape, I can't move Trunks, dammit what do I do? Trunks! TRUNKS! Hurry pleas-' he had been too late, now whoever it was has her, 'if they touch or hurt one thing in her body, this planet will not live to see the future,' he vowed searching all the surrounding.

♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠

"Tapion!" Goten called as he spotted him flying above a major city searching for Pan like everyone else. "Have you had any luck?"

"I thought I felt a faint power but it went away too quickly for me to concentrate on its location," he sighed, shaking his head.

"Yes, I felt it too, it rose a bit, but then disappeared," Goten nodded landing on one of the many skyscrapers the humans built. "Have you seen Trunks?"

"I've felt him all over the place, but I haven't seen him since we crashed on the planet," Tapion shook his head, "I believe we mistook his affections for Pan greatly," he finally finished looking over at Goten.

"I agree, even Prince Uub would agree I believe if he wasn't also looking for Pan everywhere," Goten shrugged scratching his head.

"Where do you think she is?" Tapion asked.

"I don't know, she couldn't have died, I know her and she wouldn't have died from that small crash, I swear if I knew I would find her," Goten answered frustrated; they had been searching for Pan also since the crash.

"What do you want to do?" Tapion asked watching the prince think, they hadn't been able to fix the ship, or gather the pieces that fell since they have been searching for Pan. Maybe it was for the best to delay their return to Vegeta-sei; no doubt Pan's life will be troubled.

"Come, let's get something to eat, then we'll go back where the ships pieces fell and search the area again, we'll even ask the people if they've found anything," Goten decided jumping into the air, Tapion closely behind.

♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠♠

"Krillin did you get it?" Roshi asked the short man, as he ran back into the small pink house.

"Yea, good thing you didn't throw it out, if you had she would have woken and the aliens would of followed her ki straight here," Krillin said thoughtfully handing a normal looking bracelet to his master, who in turn slipped it around Pan's wrist.

"There, at least the aliens won't find us by her ki," Roshi said standing from Pan's side and walking out the room to his living room, where he hid most of his bikini catalogs.

Krillin sat in a chair right next to the bed the raven haired woman slept, and watched her curiously, she didn't seem normal, but she looked human, maybe she trains like Roshi and him, that must be the reason why she had a higher ki than normal humans.

She moved slightly, eyes flickering as if she was having a bad dream. He got closer as he saw her lips move ever so slightly as if she was talking. Bending over he body, his ear near her mouth as he tried to make out what she was trying to say in her sleep.

"I.. get… to… him, please…. Wher.. are you…. TRUNKS!" her eyes flew open as she felt the person above her, he fell on top of her in shock, scratching his ear as she had screamed the last word, name.

"Who are you?" she asked softly when he was off of her and on the ground still rubbing his ear, as if in pain. "Where is my mate? Where have you brought me?" Pan demanded looking around the room in alarm.

"Calm down, calm down, I mean you no harm, I heard you saying something so I leaned closer to hear, I mean you no harm, I am trying to help you, calm down," Krillin said softly trying to calm her before she began hyperventilating.

"How are you helping me by keeping me away from my mate?" Pan demanded not believing his intensions, they had taken her away from Trunks. She needed him to get her stronger, she was so weak, and she couldn't even feel her own ki anymore.

"What do you mean your mate? Trunks?" Krillin asked remembering the name she screamed all too well.

"I mean my mate! Mate, the person I'm having a child with, spending my life with, my mate! How do you know his name?" Pan asked suspicious.

"You screamed it in my ear, and you mean your husband," Krillin understood nodding his head. "You are pregnant?" he asked not realizing sooner because they hadn't removed her from the blanket in which they had taken her.

"Obviously," Pan said pushing the covers off of her, realizing she didn't have on her spandex, but a big black shirt, and baggy gray sweat pants, the people who had helped her must have changed her clothing.

'Pan?' it was Trunks, he was looking for her. 'Pan, where are you, I can't feel you ki, but I can sense you're awake through our bond, are you okay?' he asked. Pan knew he was getting mental images of what she had just gone through, 'did he touch you?' he asked as she thought of how she woke with Krillin over her.

'No, no I'm fine, he wasn't trying to touch me, seems like I talk in my sleep,' Pan explained getting images of him ready to rip the bald man's head if he had touched her. 'Come get me, I'm weaker than before,' Pan looked out the room window. 'We are on a small island, I don't see any land, only ocean.' Turning to Krillin.

"Where are we?" Pan asked watching him expectantly.

"We are in the middle of the ocean," he shrugged not really having an address for her. "Why? Do you want to call Trunks?"

"I'm speaking with him as we speak, he's looking for this place, since he can't feel my ki," she explained shrugging. "Why did you take me back at the house? He was going to get me from there but you and someone else took me, why?"

"You mean you're an alien! We had been trying to protect you from the high ki heading to that house, we were trying to help you," Krillin explained his eyes widening. "No wonder you had such a weird ki, you're pregnant, an alien, and sick… tell me is your Trunks angry with us?" Krillin asked now feeling that huge ki heading towards their direction.

"He's pissed off, I might have died you know," Pan explained watching with amusement as his eyes widened is horror, "I'm pregnant and sickly like you said, if I'm not with my mate at this stage I might die, since I'm mated completely," she explained.

"Then this might be the best time to tell you about the bracelet you're wearing, it's covering your ki, that's why you can't feel it, if you take it off your ki will become visible to everyone," Krillin explained watching in fear as a small tinge of anger passed through her eyes replaced by amusement as she watched him shrink.

"Don't worry for your life, for all I know you took good care of me, I can speak, and move, I hadn't been able to before, so I am much better, hopefully he's not in a bulgur mood, from what I can feel he's more relieved than anything to find me," she tried to cheer him up patting his bald head, giggling as she rubbed it like a crystal ball.

"Gee thanks," he pouted slouching towards the room door, "I'm Krillin by the way, what's your name?" she followed him down a few stairs towards a living room where another male was giggling to himself over a few pieces of paper with half naked women.

"My name's Pan, what is he doing? The women are half naked… Is that customary in this planet? Do women have so little to wear?" she asked looking down at herself all covered up.

"No, no," Krillin blushed crimson red embarrassed of his master, "he's just a pervert, his name is Master Roshi, come on let's not be in the same room with him now," Krillin said pushing her with him out of the room, heading outside.

Pushing off the bracelet, Pan felt her ki give out sparks trying to find Trunks who was near now, Roshi ran outside feeling Trunks' ki. "What are you doing Krillin! Put that bracelet back on! You idiot, the alien has spotted us!" he screamed panicked trying to get to Pan, but Krillin stopped him, explaining things to him.

"He's here!" Pan yelled excitedly spotting him just inside her reach. She waved from the edge of the small island as if he couldn't see her and he was trying to get his attention. "I'm here, I'm here Trunks," she was practically jumping in joy, and excitement of seeing him after so long. Moving faster Trunks appeared floating just in front of her looking her over, checking her well being.

Moving forward Pan jumped him as h floated there, hugging him tight, surprised at first but eventually holding her to him tightly, no wanting to let her go. After making sure nothing was wrong with her, he turned to the two men responsible for keeping her away from him longer, raising his hand ready to blast them into the next dimension.

"Leave them alone, they thought they were helping me, I feel better now, let's go, I need some rest, I feel as if the whole time we were apart, I've been losing a lot of energy," Pan mumbled into Trunks' shoulder, rubbing her cheek on the side of his neck.

"Consider yourselves lucky," he told Krillin and Roshi before turning his back to them, and blasting into the air towards the ship, the bedroom was still in tact, Pan needed to rest.
