I will still make reference as I did before to scenes in episodes of GT, but it will not follow the same storyline directly.
Thank you for all the wonderful reviews.
Chapter 11
"I'll see you soon Pan-Chan." Trunks embraced her tightly, stealing one last kiss before having to return to Capsule Corp. "I love you so much."
"I love you too Trunks. Whatever happens we will face it together, right?"
"Of course my love, I promise!"
"Time to go, Panny, I'm sure your dad sensed that we're back by now and is probably anxious to see you." Goku interrupted. "See you Trunks, thanks for helping to find the dragonballs. Say hi to you parents, we should have one of your Mom's famous get-together's soon."
"Bye Goku, thanks for everything. I'll be sure to let my mother know, look after Pan for me will you?"
"Count on it!"
And then they were off! Going their separate ways, not realising they were about to enter a world not quite the same as when they left one year ago.
###
"Trunks…Trunks, please why don't you answer me!" Pan was feeling helpless. She had been trying to contact Trunks for hours through their bond. Everything was a mess! Her whole family was being controlled by Baby, excluding her Grandpa Satan and Buu, who she was with on the snowy mountain overlooking West City. "Trunks I need you, I don't know what to do! Grandpa Goku is gone, Baby killed him." She sobbed still trying to reach him. "Please Trunks, answer me!"
"Everything will be ok Pan." Hercule said trying to comfort his distraught granddaughter.
"How Gramps? I can't fight Baby alone and Grandpa Goku is dead!" Trunks... "What difference will it make anyway? Baby made another wish with the Blackstar balls; we went to space for nothing! Earth will explode in one year." She whispered.
###
"Tru…"
Hercule covered Pan's mouth before she could call out to him. "It's not Trunks anymore Pan. I'm so sorry honey." He whispered sadly, letting her go.
Pan sobbed. Trunks, you promised me we'd face whatever comes our way together. " Trunks fight!" She looked at him, tears streaming down her cheeks.
Baby Trunks felt something weird inside, he scanned his surroundings and spotted three figures on one of the tall buildings. One was Goku's bratty granddaughter; she was looking directly at him. He could feel the Saiyan within fighting for control of this body. The girl, they have a special bond. He could hear her clearly in his mind.
"Trunks I love you, please fight!"
Baby Trunks keeled over mid-air, holding his head while pain shot through his entire body. "Pan...Pan, it's me Trunks. Run Pan…run I can't control him for much longer, he's too strong! Run and trust no one, not even me! Trust no one on this Planet or Planet Tuffle, only Hercule and Buu. Please stay alive. I'm sorry I broke my promise and I'm sorry Goku died. I love you Pan, always. Go Pan, now!
Pan ran to the edge of the roof-top and looked at Trunks. She could hear him, her Trunks and then he was gone.
Baby Trunks held his head, moaning in agony while the others surrounded him. "He's fighting me for her." He explained pointing to where Pan was standing. "We have to kill her to make sure he doesn't surface again. They share one of those Saiyan bonds."
"A Saiyan Bond?!" Baby interrupted "I wonder if she's with child. If the Saiyan managed to break through your defences, it means they have a very powerful connection. Their baby would be strong and would make a perfect host. It is my Grandchild after all, seeing as I possess the body of Vegeta. That baby will be stronger than any of you half-breeds! Bring her to me; I need to know if she's carrying the spawn of Vegeta's son!"
Pan could hear everything, thanks to her keen Saiyan hearing. "Buu we have to go now!" She instructed. I'm not pregnant. That wouldn't stop Baby though, if they capture me and he finds out I'm not, he'll kill me. "Buu quickly, hide us inside of you. They won't be able to sense us, and take us somewhere safe."
Buu flew back to the snowy Mountains once Pan and Hercule were inside of him. Hiding in a cave that was not visible to the naked eye and masking his ki.
Baby's minions flew all over earth trying to find the pink blob; they knew he was hiding the other two inside his body.
###
"My Lord Baby we searched everywhere, but couldn't find them. The pink blob is masking his ki." Baby Trunks spoke while bowing in respect.
"You incompetent fools, do I have to do everything myself! Never mind, we still have time. Leave them for now; we have to start moving to New Planet Tuffle. I'm sure Goku's granddaughter will follow us there eventually."
###
Two months had past; half of the earth's population were on New Planet Tuffle. There was only one group left to be transported. The rest would remain on earth under Baby's control. Pan, Hercule and Buu were hiding out in his mansion. Pan was feeling sick for about a week now. Vomiting every morning and feeling nauseous throughout the days.
Hercule was concerned for her health, but there were no Doctors left to examine her. "Buu, we will have to try and get her some medication somehow."
"I'll be fine Gramps, what we really need is to get to Planet Tuffle." Pan replied. "We have to find a way to go with the last group!"
"If you're sure, then it's settled. We will go to Planet Tuffle! I need to use the restroom first though.
###
"Pan not sick, no not sick at all," Buu said shaking his head once Hercule left.
"What do you mean Buu? I've been spewing all week and I'm exhausted all the time!"
"Baby…" he replied pointing to her abdomen.
"What! Baby's not inside of me, I wouldn't be talking to you otherwise!" she shrieked.
"No, no not Baby. Pan have baby, little baby." He explained rocking his arms to show what he meant.
"Don't be silly," she waved off his statement. "I can't be pregnant, I had a check up on Planet Pi…Oh My Dende, our last day in space! I'm…I'm, what am I supposed to do now?" she cried. "Buu, please don't tell Gramps yet, I have to figure this out and its better no one else knows. It will be our secret." She looked at him pleadingly.
"Buu tell no one, Buu promise."
"Thank you," she sighed. "I can't go to Planet Tuffle now; Baby will capture me and take my child when it's born." she whispered falling to her knees. "I wish Trunks were here, or even grandpa."
###
"Gramps, you and Buu should go ahead to Planet Tuffle. I'm going to stay on earth and see what I can do to help from this end."
"No! I promised Goku I'd take care of you. We must stay together."
"Mr Satan, Pan be ok. We go now." Buu interjected and before Hercule could reply, he turned him into chocolate and swallowed him. "Take care Pan, Buu promise to keep your secret safe."
"Thank you; now go before you miss the transport. Take care of my Gramps will you?"
They must be watching. Pan thought as she watched Buu fly away. I have to try. "Kibito-Kai, can you hear me?"
###
"Hello Pan," Kibito greeted.
"Hello Kibito-Kai. I…I need your help!" Pan kept her eyes lowered, ashamed about her situation.
Kibito placed his hand on her shoulder. "We've been watching you Pan, Baby will search for you within a few months. It's not safe here or on Planet Tuffle. We will go to the Sacred World of the Kai's."
"Do you know that I'm…?"
"Yes, I can sense the babies. Don't worry, Baby wont' be able to sense any of you in other world." He assured her.
"B-b-babies…?"
"Twins, to be exact," he confirmed nonchalantly. "You conceived right before returning to earth."
"You were watching us!" Pan roared forgetting she was talking to the Supreme Kai.
"Of course not," Kibito blushed. "We could sense it, but don't worry no one on earth did; they were too busy with Baby's schemes. We must leave now, hold onto my arm."
"Will I see Grandpa Goku in other world?"
"I'm sorry Pan, I'm afraid he's lost in another dimension. I tried to save him when Baby released that last energy blast, but the aftershock made us break contact as I was teleporting causing your Grandpa to fall into Suguro Space." He explained and transported them back to other world.
###
"Grandpa can't be lost, go and find him! We need him to fight Baby and save my family!" Pan demanded.
"I wish I could Pan, but I'm afraid there's no way out once you fall into that dimension."
Pan walked away without saying another word. She wanted to be alone for a while, to soak in all the new information. She lay down on the grass behind a rock for some privacy, her arms and legs spread wide; looking up at the sky. "Trunks my love, you're going to be a father…twins" she choked on a sob. "We're having twins, I'm kind of relieved my Papa's under Baby's control. He would kill us both." She sniffed crying silent tears. "I'm safe here in other world, but I feel so lost without you. I'm scared Trunks, I'm so scared. I need you, I don't want to do this alone…"
