Chapter Sixteen: Sparring and Sex

"Go Daddy!" cheered Cora. Trunks and Pan were sparring in their gravity room while Cora and Henry watched.

"Mom take him down!" yelled Henry.

Trunks threw Pan across the room. She managed to stop herself before hitting the wall. She powered up to super saiyan and slammed Trunks down into the floor.

"Mommy no fair!" exclaimed Cora as she rushed towards her parents.

"Dad could go super saiyan too, so it's fair," Henry remarked with a smirk.

Pan was still sitting on top of Trunks. She dropped out of super to realize she was straddling Trunks. A light blush tinted the bridge of her nose as she tried to hop up, but she wasn't able to because Trunks was holding her in place. "Trunks," she hissed at him. He smirked up at her.

"Daddy why didn't you go supers?" asked Cora now leaning over his face.

"I don't want to get too into fighting when you two are in here. Someone might get hurt," explained Trunks.

"But we're strong Daddy," giggled Cora giving Trunks a kiss.

"You're not super saiyan strong Cora," warned Henry.

"Don't tease your sister. You only went super last month," Pan pointed out. Henry shrugged. "It's almost lunchtime. I'm going to fix lunch you two go play," directed Pan.

"Can we spar petty peez?" asked Cora.

"Nothing serious," sternly said Pan as the two ran out of the gravity room. "Are you going to let me up now?" she asked eyeing her husband.

"They shut the door. We could have a little fun," Trunks purred sitting up. He pulled Pan into a heated kiss slipping his hand up her shirt. A loud bang was heard outside causing the two to break apart.

"What was that!" yelled Trunks pulling Pan and himself to their feet.

"Nothing!" called Henry.

"Nothin!" repeated Cora.

"Our kids are horrible liars," chuckled Trunks

"I'm going to make lunch," she said with a giggle giving his cheek a quick kiss before darting out of the gravity room and into the main house.

Trunks headed outside to see what his children had managed. Once outside, he found a dent in the outside of the chamber. He sighed turning to see both Henry and Cora playing on the swings. "So how and who made this dent?" asked Trunks watching the two.

"We were playing soccer," Henry said softly not making eye contact with his father.

"So a runaway soccer ball?" asked Trunks still watching his son.

"I distractided him," admitted Cora who was on the swing next to Henry.

"It's okay you two. Just try to be more careful. Your mom and I don't want you getting hurt," explained Trunks ruffling Henry's hair and moving to push Cora on her swing.

"Yes sir," Henry said softly.

"Yes Daddy!" replied Cora.

xxXXxx

Pan was cooking on the stove when Trunks slipped in. He was hiding his ki as best he could. Pan smiled when she felt his strong arms wrap around her. "You're persistent today," giggled Pan.

"Sparring with you got me pretty excited," growled Trunks brushing her hair to the side, so he could kiss her neck. Pan moaned grinding back against her husband. "Do you remember that first time we made love in my office?" Trunks asked in a husky voice.

"mmmhn," Pan moaned softly.

"You asked me if there was anything I wanted to try," continued Trunks.

"You said you wanted to have a baby," Pan said quickly snapping out of her mesmerized state and turned to face him.

"Yes that's what I wanted then. Well today I thought up something I want, and it's even kinkier than office sex," smirked Trunks leaning down to kiss her on the lips. Once the kiss finished, Pan turned her attention back to what was on the stove. Her face was heating up from all the attention Trunks was giving her.

"What is it?" Pan asked still cooking.

Before Trunks could answer Cora and Henry came inside. They didn't seem to notice their parents in the kitchen as they headed to Cora's room.

xxXXxx

"Why did we have to come in if you wanted to spar?" asked Henry watching his little sister open a drawer.

"I can't," Cora said pointing to herself. Henry stared for a minute not understanding. It made more sense when she pulled a pair of pants from the drawer and pulled them on.

"You could have sparred in the skirt you know? You were wearing tights under it," commented Henry rolling his eyes.

"No. You can't," said Cora very matter of factly.

"Yes you can. Clothes don't make you unable to fight," responded Henry.

"Yeah huh," retorted Cora.

"I'll prove it!" he exclaimed digging through she dress up chest. He pulled out a skirt that was too big for Cora. Henry grabbed her hand pulling her outside.

xxXXxx

Once they heard the kids go back outside, they continued their earlier conversation.

"So what do you have in mind?" Pan asked in sensual tone that nearly turned Trunks to jello.

Trunks took a deep breath trying to regain the upper hand in their conversation. "I want to fight you then take you… like a true warrior," Trunks whispered into her ear in a husky tone.

A shiver ran down Pan spine. "I think that sounds, incredibly sexy," Pan said with a shy smile. She broke away from him to return her attention to the food.

"Lunch is ready," announced Pan after she sat the food she prepared on the table. She stared out the door into the back yard confused. "Trunks which one of our children was wearing a skirt when you left them in the back yard?" she asked turning to Trunks.

"What are you talking about, Cora of course," he said shaking his head and joining her at the door to the back yard where he saw Henry wearing a skirt over his pants while sparring with his sister.

"Is this some strange dress up sparring? Am I supposed to have a talk with him?" Trunks asked Pan confused.

Pan shrugged. "If he wants to wear a skirt, I say we let him."

"Okay then. We're just going with it then," chuckled Trunks.

"Lunch is ready!" called Pan. Henry and Cora came running inside.

"Henry is da best," announced Cora once they were at the table. Henry sat at his place at the table still wearing the fluffy pink skirt.

"Why's he the best princess?" asked Trunks looking at his sweet little girl. Cora was still small for her age. She would likely be short like her mother.

"He wores my dress," she giggled.

"Why did you decide Cora's dress sweetie?" asked Pan very nonchalantly. If this was some sort of new phase, she didn't want him to feel self conscious about it.

"Cora made a big deal about having to change out of her skirt before we sparred, so I was proving to her that you can spar in a dress," explained Henry who didn't seem bothered at all at the large amount pink he was wearing.

Pan smiled wide. "You really are the sweetest big brother," Pan told him kissing the top of his head.

"The only rule on sparring in skirts or dresses is that you have to wear something underneath," explained Trunks looking at his wife for support. Pan nodded. Cora smiled excited about her new discovery for the day.

xxXXxx

"Goten can we go," grumbled Rini nuzzling into her husband.

"You okay? How are you so tired? It's only 9:30," asked Goten. They were at a government sponsored charity ball. Ever since Rini started her new job they were dragged out to attend something along these lines every other month.

Rini shrugged snuggling closer. "We've been here long enough to make people happy," sighed Goten instant transmissioning them home. After slipping her out of her formal wear, he tucked her into their bed. Goten couldn't help but be a little worried. Rini had fallen asleep on him last week as well. At one time this was a frequent occurrence, but that's back when she worked long hours at firm. He sighed as he starting getting ready for bed himself.

xxXXxx

"So the idea I mentioned earlier?" Trunks asked holding Pan in his arms.

"Was what we did five minutes ago not good enough for you?" Pan asked with a giggle.

"Panny you know that was amazing. You always are," he purred giving her neck a nip. "I just want to try it," he gave her puppy dog eyes.

She giggled again. "Next weekend, if you can get someone to watch the kids for the whole day, I'll be yours for the whole day," she said giving him a deep heated kiss.

xxXXxx

"Hi Videl, I was wondering if you and Gohan would be up for watching the kids the kids this weekend?... I understand. I'll let you know if we go that route… Talk to you later," Trunks hung up the phone. He sighed he was running out of options.

"Mr Briefs your mother is here," his secretary informed him over the intercom.

"Send her in please," Trunks said holding down the button on his phone.

Bulma came in a smile on her face. "Hey sweetie, I was in checking on the lab, and I thought I would check in on you," she said walking over to give her son a kiss.

"Hi Mom, you wouldn't by any chance want to watch the kids this weekend would you?" he asked with a fake smile on his face.

"Trunks you know I have a speaking engagement on Sunday afternoon, but I could take them Saturday night," offered Bulma.

Trunks thought for a moment. A grin spread across his face. "That would be perfect, they'll be there," he said giving his mother a tight hug.

xxXXxx

Once Trunks got home, he searched for Pan. He found her putting laundry away. He pulled her into a mind-blowing kiss.

"What was that for?" asked Pan once she came out of the lovesick gaze the kiss had sent her into.

"We have from Friday night to Sunday at afternoon to enjoy each other this weekend," he purred into her ear before stealing another kiss from her lips. Trunks stopped ravaging Pan when he heard a giggle from the doorway. "Cora what have I told you about spying?" Trunks said turning to see his little girl.

She hung her head in a similar manner as Henry when he was in trouble. "Not to Daddy," she answered in a sad voice.

"That's right Princess. You need to respect people's privacy," he told her as he scooped her up into a tight hug. He gave her kisses and tickled her.

"Daddy!" she squeaked.

"This weekend you and Henry are going to be staying with family, so go tell your brother," Trunks said setting her down. Cora skipped from the room with a giggle.

"With family? That sounded vague," Pan raised an eyebrow at her husband.

"Well everyone had something happening this weekend, so,"

"Who is watching my children Trunks?" demanded Pan cutting Trunks off.

"Hercule is watching them Friday night then dropping them off with Chi-Chi in the morning. Around noon your parents are picking them up and keeping them until the evening when they will drop them off at Capsule Corp. Rini and Goten are picking them up from there at ten and are keeping them till three in the afternoon," explained Trunks.

Pan started laughing. "You really want this alone time don't you," she observed giving him a kiss.

"I really do," he gave her a heated kiss. There was a knock on the door. The couple turned around to see Henry holding Shadow in his arms.

"Where are Cora and I going this weekend? She just said away," asked the five year old. He was unphased by his parents' affection, to him it was a regular occurrence.

xxXXxx

"Gramps are you sure you can handle them? They're energetic and powerful," Pan asked Hercule.

"Pan-chan, I can watch my great grand kids for one night," he assured his granddaughter.

"Okay we'll be at home if you need us, and don't let Cora sweet talk you," cautioned Pan giving Hercule a hug before going to give her babies each a hug and kiss.

xxXXxx

As soon as they entered their home Trunks started pulling at her clothes.

"Trunks," she giggled swatting at his pawing hands.

"What do you want to do tonight because tomorrow you're all mine?" asked Trunks with a chuckle.

"Let's watch a rated R movie and snuggle up on the couch," she suggested giving him a kiss.

As they settled in Trunks felt a little disappointed until Pan pulled him into a make out session that would have made any horny teenagers jealous. He smirked into the kiss as he slipped a hand up her shirt she moaned moving to wrap her legs around his waist. She broke the kiss leaving Trunks panting staring into her deep onyx eyes. She smirked as she pulled his shirt over his head and began an assault on his neck while running her fingers along his chiseled chest.

xxXXxx

"You two want to sleep in the guest room? I filled it with toys and…" Hercule stopped when he realize both Henry and Cora had fallen asleep in Videl's old room. He smiled Cora still resembled Videl as a child her eyes were a different shade of blue and her nose was different, but other wise it was like having his little girl back in the house. The room still smelled like Videl's perfume and pictures and awards covered the walls. Pan loved staying in this room when she was a little girl. He shouldn't have been surprised her children were the same.

xxXXxx

Trunks laid on the couch trying to catch his breath. Pan had given him quite a ride. The movie was over, but he couldn't even tell you what it was about. Pan was already fast asleep in his arms. She was as beautiful as always. Trunks carried her to their bedroom and tucked her in. He wanted to make sure she was well rested for all the fun he planned for them tomorrow.

xxXXxx

"Chi-Chi let me know if you need anything. I'm speaking at a convention and doing a talk show interview today, but if the kids need me I can cancel those," Hercule rambled on. Henry and Cora were stuffing their faces with the home cooked breakfast Chi-Chi had waiting for them when they arrived.

"Hercule, I raised two saiyan boys nearly on my own. I'm sure I can handle these two for one morning," she said rolling her eyes.

xxXXxx

Trunks woke up surprised to not find Pan in bed with him. He got up to look for her. She gave him a beaming smile as she sat the last bit of the large breakfast on the table.

"Panny, I was going to take you out to eat," chuckled Trunks giving her cheek a kiss.

"Breakfast is always better at home besides a big breakfast means we can have more fun before needing to eat again," teased Pan giving him a peck on the lips. She headed for her seat at the table only to be pulled into his lap.

"You're sitting here today," he ordered with a husky voice that made her wriggle feeling herself become wet with excitement.

xxXXxx

"How is school going Henry?" asked Chi-Chi watching him tinker with a broken clock.

"Good, some of the kids like to bother me cause I'm younger," shrugged Henry. Cora was sweeping the kitchen giggling the whole time.

"You should be proud you skipped two grades," Chi-Chi smiled helping Cora to hold the broom as she swept.

Henry shrugged. "I get bored sometimes," he admitted.

"You don't feel challenged?" asked Chi-Chi looking a little shocked.

"I don't tell anyone cause if I do they'll put me in an even higher grade," explained Henry.

Chi-Chi beamed with excitement. She ran and got some of Gohan old homeschooling stuff. "Try to do these for me," she asked setting the book down in front of him. Henry sat the clock down and smiled as he began working on what his grandma Chi-Chi had given him.

"Gamma Chi-Chi do you hass somethin for me?" asked Cora as she looked over the books Henry was working on.

"Would you like to help me make lemonade?" she asked the two year old who giggled and nodded.

xxXXxx

Trunks and Pan were intensely sparring. Pan was at her max a super saiyan while Trunks was as far as he could go without going super saiyan two. The gravity room could handle going super, but going level two could be more than it could handle.

They had been sparring for hours. Finally, Trunks decided to move to the next step in his plan. Their sparring continued, but now Trunks was aiming at her clothes. Trunks chuckled to himself at the fact her top was almost off and she had yet to notice.

The two broke apart. Pan gave him a smirk as she pulled her tattered top off leaving her upper body only cover by a work out bra.

Trunks let out a slight growl. She had noticed his efforts. This was supposed to be his game, but he felt oddly like Pan was in control. He would have to fix that. He pinned her against the wall of the gravity room and forced his lips on hers. She moaned as she felt him rip off her bra. She was now naked from the waist up while he was fully clothed. Pan wasn't a fan of this, so she attempted to rid him of his shirt.

Trunks chuckled letting her have her moment. Once his shirt was off, he resumed control pushing her against the walls of the gravity room his muscular chest grinding against her full breasts. Pan moaned and started to drop out of super saiyan. "Pan don't. I want to take you as a super saiyan," he groaned nipping at her mate mark. Pan raised her ki to stay in her super state as she felt him undo the button on her jeans. Her hands worked to do the same, pulling down the waistband on his pants. She could feel his massive erection begging to be freed. Trunks' power level was still on the edge of super saiyan two as he ripped Pan's panties from her body and began to relieve the need that was over coming him.

xxXXxx

"Hi you two!" Videl greeted as she and Gohan entered Chi-Chi's home.

"Hi Gammie Del! Gampa Gohan up peez!" squealed Cora looking up at the tall man with delight.

Gohan smiled he was still a little awkward with his grandkids, but Cora still seemed fond of him.

Videl walked over to look over Henry's shoulder. "Henry is this school work?" she asked making a face.

"No Grandma Chi-Chi gave it to me to try. I like it!" grinned Henry still writing.

"Mom what did you give him?" asked Gohan looking over Henry shoulder as Videl had done.

"Just a couple of your old books," Chi-Chi said very casually.

"These are my old trigonometry and physics books!" exclaimed Gohan looking down at all the work his grandson had done.

"Are his answers right?" asked Videl as she took Cora from Gohan to give him a better chance to review Henry's work.

After nearly five minutes, Gohan finally answered, "Yes all his answers look right."

"Henry where did you learn this?" asked Videl making a face.

"The book, I read it," he shrugged. Videl turned to look at Gohan and Chi-Chi for a better explanation.

"He wanted a challenge, so I gave him one," smiled Chi-Chi.

"He did test very high in math and science on the evaluation he took two years ago," shrugged Gohan.

"Gohan, you won't tell my school, will you?" asked the little five year old no longer working to complete any more problems.

"Why do you not want me to tell your school? You are doing math high schoolers are lucky to understand," asked Gohan looking a little surprised at his grandson.

"I'm already the youngest kid in my grade. I don't wanna move up anymore," admitted Henry looking down at all his work.

"Henry it's good you're smart. I bet you could be done with high school before your ten," announced Chi-Chi as she started to look for more of Gohan's old books. Henry's looked upset as he dashed out of the house and into the wilderness.

"Henry!" screamed Videl and Chi-Chi looking panicked.

"I'll find him and talk to him," assured Gohan as he flew from his childhood home.

After search for nearly half an hour, he found Henry on the edge of a meadow that Pan would train in with Goku. "You okay?"

"I'm a freak," muttered Henry a scowl similar to Vegeta's on his face.

"Why are you a freak?" Gohan asked sitting down beside Henry.

"I'm too smart, and too strong, and then kids treat me weird because of who mom and dad are. I am always being watched. I hate it," Henry looked near tears.

"I was smart and strong too, so I can understand the feeling. You are going to always get attention because of who your parents are. Since you look so much like your dad, it's pretty unavoidable. Do you like being strong?" Gohan asked hoping to bring Henry back to usual happy self. Henry nodded. "Do you like being smart?"

"Yeah, but I don't like people to know I'm smart," grumbled the five year old.

"Okay, but you always do your best in school right? You never play dumb?"

"No, that would be lying. I don't lie Gohan," Henry said proudly.

Gohan smiled at the sense of honor this little boy already had. "Good, I am proud of you. I don't want you to pretend to be something your not. One more question do you like your mom and dad?"

"Of course they're the best mom and dad in the whole universe," explained Henry looking confused by Gohan's question.

"Then it's worth the bad?" Gohan asked with a soft smile.

"Yeah I guess. I love them, and they love me. Gohan do you have to tell about me being smart?" Henry asked giving his grandfather a pitiful look.

"I don't have to tell the school, but I have to tell your parents," explained Gohan. Henry nodded his understanding. "Want to race back to Grandma Chi-Chi's?"

Henry grinned a Son grin and took off in the direction of Chi-Chi's house. Gohan hurried after him.

xxXXxx

"I love you," Pan said softly in Trunks' arms as he carried her back to the house. They had a privacy fence, so no one would see them in their state of undress.

"I love you too," he said giving her a kiss as he sat her on the couch so she could rest.

Trunks went to shower as Pan napped. She had more than earned some rest. Whenever she woke up, they could order in some dinner.

xxXXxx

"Bulma are you sure you don't want us to keep the kids. Gohan could skip his meeting tomorrow," offered Videl as she sat down one Cora's bag.

"Vegeta and I are happy to have them," assured Bulma giving Henry a smile. He hugged Bulma before running off to find Bunny and Vegeta.

Cora was in Gohan's arms while the two women talked. "Gampa Gohan down peez," the little girl in his arms requested. He sat her down. She smiled before darting off.

"Bulma can I have a word with you about Henry?" asked Gohan once both the kids were out of the room.

"Sure what's up?" She asked. Gohan went on to explain about Henry being much smarter than he let on. "I'm not surprised. If he doesn't want to move up anymore grades, what should we do?" asked Bulma. She assumed he had some sort of plan, hopefully.

"I was thinking maybe I could tutor him or you could have him help in your lab. As long as he still feels challenged it should be fine," suggested Gohan.

"That may be really good for him. He loves to help me build things. He could do a little tutoring with you and some lab work with me," she smiled at the possible solution. "I'll talk to Henry and pass it along to Rini to tell Trunks and Pan," assured Bulma.

"Trunks is having everyone watch them isn't he," chuckled Gohan.

"Well he and Pan haven't had much alone time since Cora was born, so can you really blame him," snickered Bulma as Vegeta walked in carrying Cora.

"Gammie I found Pawpa!" exclaimed Cora clinging to Vegeta.

"I see that," giggled Bulma.

"Cora, Pawpa and I want to train," announced Henry as he followed after them. Cora stuck her tongue out at her brother and gave Vegeta a tighter hug.

xxXXxx

Pan and Trunks were soaking in the tub together. "We should take baths together more often," Pan said moving to lie on top of Trunks. He let out a slight growl of approval.

xxXXxx

At around half past eight in the morning Rini woke. Goten sat up as she got out of bed to go to the restroom as her usual routine, but once she got out of bed she fell back on to it.

"Rini are you okay?" asked Goten moving to hold her.

"Yeah just a dizzy spell," she grumbled curling into a ball on the bed. He held her in his arms until she finally uncurled from her balled position.

"You don't usually get dizzy spell?" questioned Goten rubbing his wife's back.

"Only sometimes when I have bad allergies. Remember I had them back when Pan and Trunks were getting married," answered Rini.

"That was back when spring was starting. It's late fall. You sure you're okay?" he asked again trying to comfort her.

"I'm fine. We promised to watch Cora and Henry today, so I can't be sick," she said in more of an order to her self than to anyone else.

"Well get dressed, and I'll go find you some allergy medicine," Goten told her. Rini stood taking a moment to regain her balance and went to her closet. Goten went to the bathroom. "Second drawer right?" he called.

"Yeah. It should be in the one with the vitamins," Rini shouted back.

Goten dug through the drawer not seeing what he was looking for. He closed the drawer and went to the third drawer and stopped. His eyes went wide as he grabbed out the box and went to the closet. "Rini!" he yelled getting her attention.

"What?" she asked confused.

Goten held a box of tampons in his hand. "When was your last period? You haven't sent me to buy more of these in awhile," asked Goten his face growing pale.

Rini's face quickly matched his as she started thinking. "I can't remember. I don't think I've had one since September, maybe," she said making a face.

"You never miss and you're never late," commented Goten after he swallowed the lump in his throat. Rini nodded giving him a hug. "Should I go buy a test?" he asked looking confused.

"We need to get dressed and go pick up the kids. We can go get a test after Pan and Trunks pick up the kids," Rini reminded giving him a kiss.

"How did today suddenly get so stressful," grumbled Goten kissing her forehead.

xxXXxx

"Uncal Go chase me!" yelled Cora as she darted around the park. He gave a soft smile as he chased the little girl.

"Is Uncle Goten okay?" asked Henry while helping Rini to spread out the picnic blanket.

"He just nervous about something," Rini smiled. She sat all the food before standing to call Goten and Cora. When she stood the dizziness from this morning returned, and she collapsed. Henry floated in the air a little to keep her from hitting the ground. Goten stopped chasing Cora to run to Rini.

"Aunt RiRi are yous sick?" asked Cora once she joined everyone at the blanket.

"Not sure, but it's probably just allergies," Rini said leaning against Goten for support.

xxXXxx

Goten answered the door to see Trunks and Pan looking very happy. "Hey you two," Goten greeted.

"Hi Mommy! Hi Daddy!" screamed Cora as she leaped a good ten feet into Trunks' arms.

"Hi princess, were you and Henry good this weekend?" he asked giving her a tight hug.

Henry smiled at seeing his parents hugging them both. Goten passed along the information from Gohan and Bulma about Henry.

"Where's Rini?" asked Pan looking around.

"She's sick," answered Henry.

"Her allergies were making her light headed, so she took a nap," explained Goten.

"Alright well tell her thank you for watching the kids. We really appreciate it," Pan told Goten giving him a hug.

Once they were gone, Goten went to check on Rini. "Sweetie do you want me to go buy a test?" asked Goten wrapping his arms around Rini.

"No it's Sunday. Someone will see you," she said with a groan as she wiggled around to snuggle into his neck.

"Do you want me to wait till later tonight when the stores aren't busy?" asked Goten kissing the top of her head.

"No cause if some sees you then, they'll think you're buying it for your mistress," Rini answered not looking up.

"Then what is our plan?" he asked stroking her hair in a comforting manner.

"I'll call and make a doctor appointment when they're open tomorrow. Then we can know for sure. Those tests get less reliable when you get old," Rini said with a sign.

"Do you not think you're pregnant?" asked Goten looking a little disappointed.

"I don't know. I just want a confirmation from a doctor before we go telling anyone," answered Rini.

"You do want to have babies with me, right?"

"Of course I do, but it could be something else. I might just be sick. I just don't want to get my hopes up and have it all taken away," admitted Rini snuggling into Goten with tears in her eyes.

"If you're not pregnant, would you want to start trying?" he asked hoping the answer would be yes.

"I think that would be nice," Rini smiled giving Goten a kiss.
