Chapter 14

Krillin

Krillin woke up the next morning not sure how to feel. On the one hand, last night was one of the best nights of his life! On the other hand, he only had a piece of lingerie that was meant for his daughter to thank for that, although thankfully said lingerie was now destroyed completely. The short man got up, only for Eighteen to pull him back down. "You were a beast last night," she told him before giving him a kiss. "Well, it's been a while, had to let it out sometime," he smiled back. Before any more hanky-panky could happen, he got a call on his phone, it was Marron, "Hey sweetheart? How was the sleepover?" "It was great, Dad," Marron told him, "Stayed up, enjoyed some cheesy monster movies, and that 'Great Saiyaman vs Mr. Satan Movie' Gohan was in, hung out, and now we're getting ready for breakfast. I'll be home after that." "Great! I'll try to not head to work right away. See you soon," Krillin told her. "See you soon. Can I talk to Mom?" Marron said. "Sure," Krillin said, and gave his phone to Eighteen before hopping in the shower. After getting cleaned up, Krillin started getting dressed in his uniform, wondering what kind of chaos was in store for him that day.

Pan

Pan woke up, nestled between her two grandparents. Grandma Chi-chi was starting to wake up, and Pan was up with her. "Oh, sorry Pan-chan, did I wake you up?" Chi-chi said when she noticed her. "I'm okay, Grandma. I'm not too tired," Pan told her, "I wanna help make breakfast." "Are you sure? It takes a lot of work to feed Grandpa and Uncle Goten," Chi-chi warned her. Pan nodded, the same look in her eye as if she was in a fight, "I help Dad make breakfast for Mom. I can do it!" Chi-chi smiled and said, "Alright, let's go. But be quiet, don't need them waking up before breakfast is ready." "Okay," Pan said as the two of them quietly walked to the kitchen. Once they reached the living room, Chi-chi took a few minutes to stretch herself out, Pan was used to this after the many times Grandma Chi-chi and Grandpa Goku took care of her and stretched out with her as well. Once they were stretched out, the two of them took out the pots and pans they would need to cook a breakfast big enough for three Saiyans.

Pan got the rice started while Chi-chi chopped up some meat and vegetables. "Oh, I think we'll need some fish, Pan-chan, think you can catch one for me?" Chi-chi said as she cut up the meat and veggies. "Alright," Pan said. "Be careful, and don't take too long," Chi-chi said as Pan ran to get dressed in her orange gi and shoes. After getting dressed, Pan grabbed a fishing pole from outside her Grandparent's house and made a beeline for the river where her Grandpa liked to fish.

The quarter-Saiyan girl put a worm on the hook and cast her line, waiting for a nice big fish to show. She stretched out her senses the whole time, feeling for the ki of a REALLY big fish, hopefully one even bigger than Grandpa Goku. She rmemebered how Grandpa Goku showed her how to fish, before he left to train Uub, she got three regular sized fish, and one about as large as herself, while somehow Grandpa Goku hadn't caught anything. Pan hoped Uub was really strong, evn stronger than Grandpa Goku, her Dad, and Vegeta all combined; just so that when the world needed to be saved, he could deal with it. Pan just wanted to be able to be with her Grandpa for a little while.

Pan snapped out of her thoughts when she felt her line being pulled, she could sense that it was a monster of a fish. Pan dug her heels into the ground and pulled. The fish was fighting her the whole time, but no fish was stronger than she was! With a hard yank, Pan sent the fish flying out of the river, it was massive, maybe even bigger than Majin Buu! The fish landed on the dirt and flopped around like crazy, before Pan delivered a hard kick to its head, humanely killing it. "Sorry Fish-san, but it looks like you're breakfast today," she said as she lifted the fish over her head and started running back to her Grandparent's house.

Once she reached it, Pan had to kick the door, gently, to get her Grandma to open it. Chi-chi took one look at the fish and said, "Oh wow! That's as big as what your Grandpa usually catches!" "Uh huh! It was a fighter!" Pan happily said as she carried the fish in. Uncle Goten was awake by then and rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. "What the-WHOA! Pan-chan, did you catch that by yourself?!" he said, now fully awake. "Yep!" Pan said. Goten ran back to his room and took a picture of Pan holding the fish up high, before Chi-chi took it and started cleaning it. "Alright Pan-chan, I need you to stir up the rice, meat, and vegetables while I handle the fish," Chi-chi told her, and showed her how to do it to make sure it was all cooked evenly. "Got it Grandma!" Pan said and got to work. While this was going on, Goten stretched. The food was almost ready; and Chi-chi told Goten, "Go wake up your Father. Also, since you have so much energy, you can clean up the dishes." "Alright," Goten said. "Can I help clean?" Pan asked. "If you want to," Chi-chi told her, "It's an important skill to learn after all."

Goku came down to the dining room and Chi-chi passed out the food to everyone, it was enough for everyone to eat. As they ate, Goten showed Goku the picture of Pan with the fish they were now enjoying, and Goku told her, "Pan, you're a natural. That might be bigger than any fish I caught." "Thank you! It was a real fighter, but no fish can beat me," the quarter-Saiyan girl proudly said. After everyone finished eating, Goten and Pan got to work cleaning the dishes, while Chi-chi got ready for the day. After her, Goku and Goten took their turns in the shower, and Goten headed out to his job at the Zoo. Right after he left, the Son family spotted Vegeta and Bra flying over, Vegeta wearing an exact duplicate of the Saiyan Armor he first wore when he originally came to Earth, and Bra wearing the same armor, complete with Scouters for both of them. "Whoa, Vegeta! It's been a while since I saw you in that outfit," Goku commented.

"It was Bulma's idea, Bra asked her to make some sets of armor like I used to wear, and made some for me too, she calls it 'father-daugher bonding'," Vegeta said. Bra piped up then, "Yeah! And the Scouters work too! Pan, power up so I can measure your Power Level!" "Be careful, the old Scouters would blow up if you measured someone too powerful," Vegeta told her. "It's okay, Mom fixed that problem, it stops counting after it hits one billion," Bra said, as Pan took a fighting stance and let loose with a long and loud kiai. The ground shook everywhere, as loose dirt and rocks started to swirl and rise around Pan, and Vegeta activated his own Scouter, his curiosity piqued. The numbers climbed higher and higher, already reaching the millions and rising still. "I can't believe this, if she wasn't your granddaughter, Kakarot, I wouldn't believe a child was capable of such power!" Vegeta commented.

Finally, Pan stopped, and Bra checked the number, "Uh, that's really high…Five-hundred and Eighty-nine million!" "Kakarot! How is she not a Super Saiyan yet!?" Vegeta yelled. Goku rubbed his head, "I don't know, I guess Pan never got angry enough to really focus her power to go that level?" "That's too bad," Bra said, crossing her arms and smirking in a very Vegeta way as she walked up to Pan, and then went Super Saiyan, "Since I already made it and all." "Oh? But are you stronger than me?" Pan asked, smiling back at her. "Wanna find out?" Bra asked. "Bring it on!" Pan yelled, and the two girls jumped back and took their fighting stances, before charging straight at each other.

"HOLD IT!" Chi-chi quickly got between them, luckily Bra and Pan stopped before they could hit her or Chi-chi would have been obliterated. "Look, I know I can't stop you from wanting to see who's stronger," Chi-chi said, looking at Vegeta and Goku. Goku chuckled and rubbed the back of his head while Vegeta crossed his arms. She continued, "However! I don't want you to destroy my house, or the surrounding area! Goku, find a spot where they can fight, without putting anybody or property in danger, and take us there." "Alright," Goku said, then stopped, "Wait, did you say 'us'?" "Of course, Heaven knows that if there isn't a responsible adult around that these two could get seriously hurt after all!" Chi-chi yelled, "Which reminds me, I think we have some senzu beans inside, don't leave without me!" The human woman went back into her house, and Bra turned off her Super Saiyan form.

"Man, that must have taken some doing," Goku commented to Bra, "I think Goten was about your age when he first went Super Saiyan." "Bulma has a theory, she thinks that Saiyans have special 'S' cells in our genetic material, unlocked when one goes Super Saiyan, and that the more one has, the easier it is for their children to turn Super Saiyan," Vegeta commented as Bra told Pan how she first went Super Saiyan, "That might account for why Gohan had a harder time reaching Super Saiyan than Goten and Trunks." "That sounds good, I guess," Goku said, scratching his head and looking mildly confused, "But what about Pan though? Is is because she's more Earthling than Saiyan?" "We'll see," Vegeta smirked. Chi-chi came out with a small bag of senzu beans, and everyone grabbed onto Goku, Pan making sure to hold his hand while Bra held her Dad's, as Goku stretched out his ki sense to find a good place for Pan and Bra. "Found it," Goku finally said, and then used Instant Transmission.

They all arrived on a rocky island, about five miles around. There was no sign of life there, human or animal. The terrain was just flat enough to avoid any tripping or ankle twisting thankfully. "Alright, we should be good here. Girls, get ready," Goku said. Bra and Pan took a few minutes to stretch out before getting to the middle of the island and standing six feet away from each other. Pan assumed a low stance, while Bra took a much higher stance, focused on guarding her head. The two Saiyan rivals watching had different reactions, Goku smiled nostalgically while Vegeta rubbed his face in exasperation. "Ready?" Goku yelled, once again Pan powered up, and Bra turned Super Saiyan again. "GO!"

The two girls flew at each other, their first clash made a shockwave that would have knocked Chi-chi over if Goku hadn't caught her. "Hang on tight, Chi-chi, it's only gonna get crazier from here!" Goku told his wife as she held onto him tightly. Bra and Pan's fists and feet clashed as they started to fly over the island, moving around and above, both trying to land a good hit. Bra landed the first blow, kicking Pan in the stomach before punching her face. Pan was sent soaring through the air, and Bra flew after her. But Pan had more experience, she had sparred her parents, Uncle, Marron, and grandparents, she was used to being the weaker fighter and had learned how to fight smart. She quickly turned around in time to hit Bra with a ki ball to her stomach before she could hit her a third time. Pan went for a kick, but Bra blocked it then grabbed Pan's leg before spinning her around and tossing her into the island.

Pan barely managed to stop her fall before Bra came after her. Pan rolled away just as Bra hit, making a crater a mile wide as she slammed into the ground. "PAN!" Chi-chi yelled, only for the quarter-Saiyan girl to stand up and wipe her face, "I'm fine!" Bra emerged from the crater, still holding her Vegeta Smile. "Ha, I knew you were no match for my power! After all, you're barely even a Saiyan," Bra taunted Pan. Pan shot back at her, "Yeah? Well I still kicked your butt all the time before you turned Super Saiyan!" "True," Bra said, but then appeared behind Pan, faster than she could see, although Goku and Vegeta saw it easily. Pan spun around for a spinning hook kick, but Bra blocked it before saying, "You're reaching your limit. But I am Bra, the Princess of All Saiyans! I have no limits!" Bra kicked Pan back and brought her hands together. "Come on! Try to beat this! Galick Gun!"

Pan quickly powered up a Kamehameha Wave and countered Bra's Galick Gun with it. Bra's own beam pushed Pan's back, but Pan was undeterred as she poured more power into her attack to stop Bra's Galick Gun. "Not bad, for a weakling," Bra yelled at Pan, "But the fact remains, I'm still a real Saiyan warrior! I am a member of a proud warrior race! And you're not!" Bra's Galick Gun tore through Pan's Kamehameha Wave like it wasn't even there, slamming into the quarter-Saiyan girl hard. Pan was sent screaming through the air, and Goku quickly flew to catch her. "Bra! That's not fair, making fun of your opponent like that!" Chi-chi yelled, "You need to apologize young lady!" Bra tossed her hair over her shoulder before crossing her arms and looking at Chi-chi. "No," she said. "WHAT!? Vegeta! Control your daughter!" Chi-chi yelled. Vegeta just stood there and was quiet.

"You're just a bug compared to me," Bra told the Earthling woman to her face, "If you keep buzzing in my face, I might squash you." Bra's ki aura flared around her, knocking Chi-chi on her butt. "Chi-chi!" Goku yelled, only for Vegeta to appear in front of him. "Vegeta! Stop her!" Goku yelled. Vegeta's response was to turn Super Saiyan Blue and punch Goku right in his face, making Goku drop Pan go flying back. "Grandpa!" Pan screamed. Goku quickly turned Super Saiyan Blue as he and Vegeta started fighting, while Chi-chi backed away from Bra as she got closer. "Bra! NO!" Pan screamed. Bra looked at Pan, with that Vegeta Smile on her face, as she powered up a ki ball in her hand and pointed it at Pan's Grandma.

"NO!" Pan screamed, louder than she ever had before, and in an instant, she was next to Bra, punching her away from Chi-chi. "Grandma are you okay?" Pan asked as she helped her up. "I'm fine…Pan! You-you're… You're a Super Saiyan!" Chi-chi exclaimed. "Huh?" Pan said, then looked at her hands, and saw the golden aura of a Super Saiyan! "I am!" Pan yelled, only for Bra to come flying over. Pan took her fighting stance and said, "I'll keep you safe Grandma, leave everything to me!"

Pan and Bra flew at each other like missiles, when their legs clashed, it was like a bomb going off, Chi-chi hugged the ground for dear life screaming her head off the whole time. Pan and Bra's fists slammed into each other, but it was clear that Pan was the stronger Super Saiyan as she started landing punches, while Bra struggled to keep up. The two flew around each other, blasting ki balls the whole time, Pan making sure none could hit Chi-chi. Pan blasted Bra with two ki balls, and Bra answered by flying at her and pounding one into Pan's stomach. The wind was driven from her lungs, giving Bra time to slam her fists on Pan's head, pounding her straight into the crater Bra first made, tripling its size. Pan coughed up some blood but wiped her face quickly before jumping up and out of the crater.

Bra flew down on the other side, both girls were bruised and panting hard, while above Goku and Vegeta were practically invisible with the speed they moved, although the shockwaves they made could be felt and heard by all three females. "Alright, this one decides it all," Bra said as she brought her hands together again, and Pan did the same.

"Galick-"

"Ka-me-ha-me-"

"GUN!"

"HHHAAA!"

The two beams crashed together in the middle of the crater, making a blinding light all around. Pan and Bra poured more power into their attacks, but slowly and surely, Pan's own attack gained ground. "You need to train more, Bra! It doesn't matter if you're a Princess or not!" Pan yelled out as her Kamehameha Wave made one last massive push, and hit Bra hard, knocking her out. Up above, Vegeta looked down and saw what happened, giving Goku a chance to land a powerful punch to his stomach. Vegeta blocked Goku's follow ups, yelling, "Enough Kakarot!" "Why? Because you're losing?" Goku smirked as he kept fighting. "NO, YOU IDIOT! THIS WAS NEVER A SERIOUS FIGHT!" Vegeta yelled back at him, stopping Goku in his tracks. Vegeta deactivated Super Saiyan Blue and flew down to Pan. He and Goku had done a number on each other, their clothes were torn up and they were sporting some impressive bruises.

Bra woke up and Vegeta picked her up before turning to the Son Family. "This was all a trick, it was Bra's idea to help Pan become a Super Saiyan. I told her about how you, Kakarot, and Gohan turned Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan 2 because you wanted to protect the people you care about. She figured that since it worked for Pan's Father and Grandfather, it should work for her too," Vegeta explained, and Bra nodded, "Yeah, I'm glad it worked, but man, I feel sore all over." Pan deactivated Super Saiyan, and Chi-chi said, "You couldn't call us and tell you your plan?" "Sorry, Chi-chi-baa-san," Bra said as Veget let her down and she bowed low to her, "But I had to make sure it was convincing. I'm really, really, REALLY sorry!" Chi-chi looked at her, then took a deep breath and let it out slowly, "My life is never easy. I'll forgive you this time, since it helped Pan with something she wanted, but next time you come to spar, I'm staying home. My heart can't take this kind of stress regularly."

"Thank you very much!" Bra said. Chi-chi sighed as she dug out three senzu beans, giving one whole each to Pan and Bra, and snapping the third one in half for Vegeta and Goku. Once everyone was healed, Goku took them back home. The rest of the day for Pan was uneventful, just her practicing with Super Saiyan while Grandpa Goku watched and gave her tips.

Author's Note: The next chapter will be about Videl and Gohan in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. This chapter takes place at the same time as the next chapter, while the previous one was the day the Son Family went to the Carnival.
