Pan sat down at the table as Amara started her cleaning. "Why didn't you go with them Panny?"
Pan smiled. "Why should I when they didn't want me to go? Bulma probably told them to take me. After all…I'm just a spoiled brat to their eyes." Pan got up and left the kitchen. "I'm going to take a nap."
Pan lay on the bed with the key still around her neck. She grew sleepier and finally closed her eyes.
Trunks, Bulla, and Waldemar were home at six o'clock. Trunks and Bulla got out of the car along with a blonde-haired woman. Trunks put his arm around her shoulder. "I just want to introduce you to my best friend."
They walked inside the house and were greeted by Amara. Trunks smiled. "Where's Pan?"
Amara thought for a minute. "I haven't seen Panny since one when her father called. I have a feeling she received horrible news. She has been in her room this whole time…and each time I check up on her I see her asleep."
Amara looked at Waldemar. "She did have quiet an adventure at twelve. You should have seen her!"
Waldemar smiled. "I knew it would work…but it's still true."
Trunks ran up to Pan's room and sat down on the corned of her bed. She was all wet and her eyes were pink from crying. Maroon sat from the opposite side and looked worried. "Oh the poor child."
Trunks put his hand on her forehead. "She's burning up. Amara you didn't notice?"
Amara ran to Pan's side. "She did look feverish ten minutes ago but she wasn't as warm as she is now." Amara bolted out of the room followed by Waldemar.
Maroon left and Trunks stayed by Pan. Amara wet the cloth and put it on Pan's forehead. "Come along Trunks she needs space. You'd best consult this with your parents and ask them to call a doctor tomorrow…"
Waldemar stood in the doorway. "She isn't in any kind of pain or sick in a serious way." He pushed Trunks out the door. "I need to have a word alone with Amara. Stay out here for the time being."
He took Amara's hand and led her to the game room. "The key I gave her has a curse. Through my families many generations not one girl was born. I feel as if Pan is my daughter. I never saw this happen before but we must leave her alone. She may be the answer to break the family curse forever."
Amara was now angry. "And you're using our Panny to suffer you're curse!"
Waldemar put his hands on her shoulder. "When the moon is full I become something that isn't human. Vegita is the only one that knows and I didn't want anyone else to know. The key seems to be reacting to Pan. This could mean she might be able to break the curse and find the door of light."
Amara put her hand on her head. "And you're putting a ten-year-old through this whole thing?"
Waldemar opened the door but glanced back at Amara. "You can tell the Briefs if you want. In the next two weeks when the moon is full, I become a demon permanently and someone will have to hunt me down." He left and Amara went after him.
"I promise as long as you promise she won't go through a lot of pain."
