Chapter 9: I Wish To Reveal To You

"Trunks?" Pan said as he looked up at her a little shocked.

"Kim, what are YOU doing here?" he asked in a harsh way as she cringed.

"Look are you still mad because of yesterday?" she asked as his glare worsened. "You know I was right! You just can't admit it!"

"You were right! Pssh! Kim! What makes you think you were right! The pills was in her purse! Her purse!" He yelled at her as she looked at him shocked.

"You...You can't accept your own mother? After all she's done for yo-"

"She's never done anything for me," he started. "She only wanted my father...Not me," he said as his face suddenly changed from an angry glare to pity. "I was a mistake they made," He looked up at Pan. "I shouldn't be telling you this."

"Why?" She asked tears at the brim of her eyes. "Why! Why can't you tell me! Am I not your friend!"

"No..." He answered. "It's noth-Wait! You're not my friend! You're on the opposing side! You're with my mother! I can't...I can't trust you anymore Kim, you're no one I know." He said as he started walking, leaving a heartbroken Pan standing there, trying to calm her heart as it raced with the ticks of the clock. Like in the hospital the other day, his steps descended as his frame became smaller, but before he totally disappear...

"I want to tell you, Kim, you're no one I trust, I only trusted you from the beginning because you were one of Pan's friends, now," he stopped for a mid-second. "she and I don't like you anymore." He said as his body disappear and Pan's heart flying just miles away.

Is this some kind of joke! Only kids say..."I don't like you anymore!" She couldn't believe what she heard...If she told him the truth would he...Would he believe her? Yes! Yes! He has to! She knows the whole story by heart! The necklace! The necklace...Marron still had it. She'd have to go threw her if she wanted it back. Why? Why must things happen like this? She silenty picked the things her Uncle needed, payed for them, and left...

--------

Kenji her hadn't talked ever since she left for Yan City, but she planned to change that today. They had to talk things out, even if it means paining him and her. Well, they did talk, Trunk's engagement party, but only for a brief moment because of the incident. That day when he confessed his love to her was all it took to make her ignore him for so long...can they ever be the same friends again? He sulked back in his seat as his hands entwined with the capsule trying to figure out Vegeta's last masterpiece before he was gone...he was deep in thought when the doorbell rung. He walked up to it and opened the door.

"K-kim?" He asked.

"Yo Kenji!" She yelled hugging him. "I missed you!"

"I missed you too," he said in shock. "How have you been doing?"

"I've been doing fine, but hey! Are you going to invite me in or not!"

"Oh! Come in Kim! Come in!" He welcomed as she went in taking her shoes off in respect.

"We've got a lot to catch up on do we?" Pan asked.

"Yep! We sure do!" He said as they both sat on the couch. "So how was your trip in Yan City?

-------

That was how they were in good terms again. Vegeta's death kept them close. They were seen together a lot and Trunks was just falling more under Marron's handle. Yet they just stood back and watched what happened around them...Trunks made it clear to Pan that he did not want to talk to her anymore. He didn't even want to know her. So she kept her distance and allowed Marron to dig a hole in his heart.

-------

"Trunks...I'm not feeling so good..." Marron said breathlessly as Trunks ran to her side. "M-my...h-h-heart..."

"It's okay Marron, I'll take you to the hospital right now!" Trunks picked her up bridal style as he ran quickly to his car and put her in the passenger seat as he fed her her pills. Her breathing was harsh and he sped over the speed limit. In fifteen minutes they reached the hospital as Trunks quickly put her in a wheelchair and wheeled her over meeting Ubuu on the way.

"What's wrong Trunks!" Ubuu asked worriedly.

"No time to talk Ubuu, check on her right now!" Trunks yelled as Ubuu nodded his head and he put her on a rolling bed and quickly took her into the sugery room.

Trunks had to think it all over. The only friends Marron really ever did have were Bra, Kim, and Kenji. They were all mad at him for his stupid behavior over his father's death. Would they come even if he called them? Marron really needed some grievance right now...he was going to take the chances. He dialed Kenji's number.

Two rings...three rings...four rings...

"Hello! Kim speaking!" said a cheery voice on the other end.

"Kim? Where's Kenji?" Trunks asked.

"Trunks? You sound worried, what's wrong?" she asked.

"Hurry, you, Kenji and Bra! Hurry to the hospital! Marron had another heart attack, come quick alright! She needs all of you here!"

"Alright, we'll be there in a few!" she said ending the call and hung up.

-------

"Kenji! Quick, get out of the bathroom! Marron is in need! We need to get over to her!" Kenji got out.

"After what she did to you Kim? You still want to go and see her?" Kenji asked. "There is no way we are going to go and see that traitor!"

"She was our friend and still is! If I was sick, you and Bra would be there yes, but I want Marron to be there too!" He took a deep look at her.

"Alright, did you get Bra?" He asked.

"She's already in the car, let's go!" Pan said rushing out and Kenji following.

"What took you two so long?" Bra asked impatiently.

"Kenji here had to make a decision, whether to come or not," Pan answered as Kenji started the car.

"Oh well, just hurry up!"

-------

Footsteps clacked on the hard ground as heartbeats played in unison. They all searched for one person when Kenji yelled out.

"Trunks!" Trunks looked back and saw the trio as he ran over to him.

"How's Marron?" Pan asked.

"I have no clue yet, all they said was they were going to have to do surgery since she may not make it," Trunks answered tears forming at the corners of his eyes. Pan brought him in a hug.

"We all know Marron is strong and she will make it!" Pan said as Trunks sobbed into her shoulder. All this pain for the wrong person... Pan thought.

"News from Marron?" A nurse yelled out. The quad looked up and rushed over to the nurse scaring her for a bit. "Alright, she can't have visitors yet but she's fine now, you should be able to visit her in half an hour."

Everyone sighed in relief and all sat down waiting for the half hour to past.

"Does anyone want anything to eat?" Kenji asked breaking the silence.

"Woah Bro! A time like this and you want to eat!" Bra said twisting his ears.

"Ow! Fine!" He said as he just sat there with them. A nurse walked up to them.

"Are you Marron's relatives?" the nurse asked.

"I'm her fiancee," Trunks said.

"Sisters," both Bra and Pan said at the same time.

"Brother," Kenji said as the nurse nodded. They had to lie to see her.

"Alright, I won't check IDs since I trust all of you, she's in room 107 down that way," the nurse gestured. They went in to find a drowsy Marron. Trunks went to her side as he grabbed one of her hands.

"I'm here now, Marron," Trunks whispered as Marron looked dreamily at him.

"Th-th-thanks...for be h-here..." she squeaked out of her dry throat. "W-who else i-is h-here?" she turned to find three of her best of the best friends. "K-kim?" She managed to get out that name. Pan walked up.

"Are you okay now Marron?" she asked as Marron smiled and nodded.

"I'm f-fine," she said said as her hand weakily grabbed Pan's. "I-I n-need to t-talk to yo-you afterw-wards o-okay?" she asked and Pan nodded.

"Please rest now Marron, we all want you to be strong again alright?" Marron nodded off to sleep as Trunks stood by her side.

"Well...she's okay now, now do you guys want to go out?" Kenji asked as Bra punched him again.

"Hm! You and Goten!"

"Yo!" Bra tensed up at the familar voice. She looked back.

"Hey Goten!" She said as she ran to hug him.

"I heard about Marron," he said wrapping his arms around her.

"Yeah, she said she's fine now," Bra said nuzzling her head into his neck.

"Let's hope so," Goten said. "She looks tired."

"Let's leave them be for now, they need their space," said Pan. "and privacy."

Everyone nodded and went out.

-------

Hours later Marron woke up to find Trunks asleep still holding onto her hand. She smiled and shifted in her bed and he felt the move. He blinked his eyes open and saw Marron awake.

"Hey."

"Hey, I want to talk to Kim, do you think you can wheel me out?" Marron asked.

"No, until you are better, and they left hours ago when they found you okay, they'll be back in an hour," he answered and she looked disapppointed.

"Okay," she said and the nurse from before came in.

"You're awake now Ms. Chestnut," said the nurse. "We've looked over everything and we see it fit that you can leave in one hour." she said smiling at the couple. "You two make a great couple." Then she walked out. Both Marron and Trunks smiled at each other.

------One Hour Later------

Marron and Pan walked out first chatting and laughing as the rest followed far behind not to disturb them. Suddenly the laughter soon turned into seriousness.

"Kim...no, Pan, I want you to have the necklace back, I've kept it far too long," Marron said undoing the clasps.

"No Marron! Keep it alright, you're Pan now, that's all that matters! You and Trunks are getting married, if he sees me with...the necklace, he'll expect something, you keep it okay?" Pan said clasping it around Marron's neck again. She smiled, then it turned into a devious smirk.

"Stop playing nice Pan! I know what you're thinking! Do you really think you can win him over with that nice girl attitude! I hate you and you know that!" Unnoticed to both of them...

"Trunks will never find out the truth! The truth that you are-!"

"Marron!" Kenji yelled. If Trunks did find out the truth, he would take Pan from the corners of his hands, and he'll never have a chance with her. She looked back and gasped.

"Trunks..." She said as Trunks walked up to them eyes narrowed.

"What truth Marron? Are you too afraid to tell me the truth?" Trunks yelled at her. Her eyes widened as she looked down guiltilly glaring at the ground. When she gained enough courage, she took off the necklace and threw it at Pan.

"You want to know the truth?" She asked glaring at Pan every passing word. "I'll tell you the truth alright!" Trunks' eyes narrowed more.

"Marron! What are you doing!" Kenji yelled as he was about to walk up but Ubuu and Goten held him back.

"Stop it Bro! Trunks needs to know!" Bra yelled as tears fell out of Marron's eyes.

"Trunks, even if I tell you this, promise me you'll still marry me!" Trunks looked at her hard.

"If it is something I can still do, then yes I'll still marry you, but if I can't, then I guess I can't," Trunks answered as Marron's heart pounded. "You are guilty for something are you?" This made Ubuu snap.

"Marron is never guilty! Marron tell him! Tell him the truth to prove you're not guilty! You're just hiding the fact of your heart disease are you?" He asked still holding onto Kenji. Marron looked lovingly into Trunks' eyes.

"Trunks...I can't say this...it's too hard," Marron said as Pan was quiet all along.

"S-stop it!" Pan finally spoke. "This is nonsense! Let's just stop here!"

"You shut it Kim! You have nothing to do in this!" Trunks yelled glaring at her, she silently gasped.

"Stop it Trunks! It does have to do with Kim...no rather...Pan!" He looked at Marron again.

"What do you mean Pan? Aren't you Pan?" He asked coming closer to her. She took in deep breaths as she pushed away Trunks' embraced.

"NO!" She yelled as her arm and hand gestured over to Kim. "She is Pan!"
