" Talking"
Thinking
Flashback or Dream
The trio sat giggling as they munched on potato crisps and pop corn. They had changed into their t-shirts and hot pants. The girls were really enjoying themselves, talking about school, work, love and boys in particular.
" I heard that you've got yourself a boyfriend Pan," Bra began to snicker while Pan went read with embarrassment.
" Oh yeah. Hehe. Who told you that?" Marron began to giggle. Oh this should be fun. Sorry Pan, I know your my friend but I have to ask you.
" I heard that his name is Fred Johnson and that you have a really big crush on him," Bra choked on her potato crisps. Pan turned pale.
" Who told you that lie? Yeah there is a guy called Fredrick Johnson and he is a geek," By now Pan was seeing red.
" Oh so he's suddenly called Fredrick now is he. ' Oh Fredrick hold me close. Oh Fredrick never let me go' ," Pan picked the nearest pillow and flung it at Marron while Bra was rolling on the floor, clutching her sides as they had began to hurt.
" That's not funny guys. Your just being too melodramatic for my liking Marron, " Pan huffed, crossing her arms against her chest.
" Oh Marron I thought that you should've learned by now. Pan has a little tiny, weeny crush for my nerd of a brother, " Bra put an emphasis on ' little, tiny and weeny' to show Marron that it was much more. Marron nodded at Bra once she gave her a wink.
" That's so not true Bra. Sure, what about uncle Goten Bra? Hey Marron, what about your wonder boy Uub?" Pan decided that the joke was on her for too long. She got pleasure from seeing both girls squirming with discomfort. Bra then chuckled nervously.
" I don't like your uncle," Marron kept quiet throughout this as she knew that if she she said so much as 'boo' that Pan would tease her about Uub.
" Well I don't know about you guys but I'm exhausted. I think we should call it a night." Nodding their heads in agreement, Pan and Marron climbed into their sleeping bags while Bra snuggled up in her cold mattress and soft sheets. She then turned out the lights.
" Hey Marron, you didn't tell us about Uub," Pan whispered to the girls.
" Pan!" Both Marron and Bra were starting to loose their patients. Why couldn't Pan just drop it.
" Sorry. Night night," Pan fell back and started her journey into the land of nod.
" They are asleep. I feel two great power levels besides the girl's. We will just keep an eye on the girl for now." She sat down on the branch of the tree while her fellow fighters perched themselves on different branches, hiding their ki level.
They continued to sit on the tree outside Bra's bedroom and looked in through the window at the sleeping females.
She began to toss and turn in her sleep. Grunting as if something was hurting her.
Dream
She continuously tried to run away from something. She didn't know who was there. Down corridors, around corners and through isolated rooms she never stopped running.
" Who's there!" She turned, searching around her. " I know you are here so stop trying to scare me," she called out to the hiding enemy.
She heard muffled foot steps coming from behind her but she couldn't move! It was as if her bottom half was paralysed.
" I know that your the one who tried to drown me. So why don't you just show me who you are?" She felt a sudden burst of coldness around her legs.
Suddenly something grabbed her by the back of the neck...
End of Dream
Pan bounced out of her sleep, drenched in sweat. She looked around the dark room only to find a sleeping Bra and Marron. she sat still for a couple of minutes. She clambered out of her sleeping bag and walked over to the window. She had that eerie feeling again that she was being watched.
She looked out of the window only to find that it was still and silent. She went over to her pile of clothes and lifted out a light grey sweater. She pulled it over her petite form and retreated to the door of Bra's bedroom. She took one final glance and left the two sleeping figures who looked like they were trying to catch flies in their sleep.
Quietly, she tipped toed her way down the peacefull corridors of Capsule Corp. Abruptly, she stopped. She heard the creeking of the floorboards.
A hand rested on her shoulder. She turned around only to meet a very concerned looking Trunks. " Pan what's wrong?" worriedness and panic laced through his voice as he spoke.Her heart began to beat a mile a minute
Pan began to cry, letting the tears fall like a fast flowing waterfall.
" Panny," Trunks whispered as he held Pan deep against his chest and rubbed her back in cirles trying to soothe her.
Pan let the tap in the Brief's kitchen run. She cupped the water in her hands and splashed it over her face. She let the cold water run over her hand and then rubbed it over her neck.
" Care to explain what happpened?" Trunk's voice was smooth and composed. Pan sighed and turned to look at him. He handed her a cup of lemon tea and beckoned her to come and sit with him at the large kitchen table.
Pan sat directly opposite him, she couldn't help but feel awkward as he stared at her. She took a sip from her cup. The last time that she had sat with him like this was after the Black Star dragonball hunt. She rarely saw him these days as he would be busy with work or out on a date.
" I had a nightmare, that's all." She began to circle her finger around the rim of the cup, carelessly looking at the lemon tea as if she was absorbed in it.
" Oh. Well it must have been some nightmare to have you crying," Trunks continued to stare at Pan.
" I don't mean to be rude Trunks but I don't want to talk about it. I'm going to watch some television," she left him sitting at the table speechless. That dream must have freaked her out 'cause when I found her she was sweating profusly.
He followed her into the living room and sat down beside her. " Then you won't mind if I join you," his voice sent shivers down her spine. She began to flick through the channels, trying to find one that was at least decent.
" What are you doing up so late. Doesn't the President / model need his beauty sleep?" She smirked at him in a playful manner.
" Darling, if I had anymore sleep I would have the straight guys falling at my feet," his ego taking over his brain. Pan started to chuckle.
" Yeah Trunks, keep saying that and you might just believe it." There was silence for a few minutes and he was possitive that she had fallen asleep so he picked her up and made his way up to her room. He looked down at her and studied her features. She really has turned into a beautifully, stunning young woman. He opened the door of her room, gently placed her on the bed stealing one last glance before leaving.
