Updates have been a little slow lately, haven't they? Sorry 'bout that... I'm doing the best I can! Anyways, I decided to post a special chapter for Mommy's Day! This one's for Videl & Pan.

Disclaimer: I still don't own it.


"I'll grab two of these, a yellow, pink... Oh! Here's a red one..."

Bright, lemony rays of sunlight smiled upon four-year Pan, who was busy picking wildflowers while taking a break from training. She tightly grasped a small bouquet in her tiny hand, as she bent over to take a quick gander at a bed of fresh, yellow poppies.

The little girl sat there for moment, thinking whether or not she wanted one of them. She shrugged her shoulders, then picked a couple and added them to her collection. She stood back up and looked at the surrounding blooms, while taking a little stroll.

An alluring scent wafted in the air, and travelled under Pan's nostrils. She stopped walking, then took in a deep breath of air through her nose. The sweet fragrance caused her face to blush, and a huge smile to accompany it, her eyes began to sparkle; she had never smelled something so wonderful! Pan got down on her hands and knees, then started searching for the source of the scent.

"Pan!" called a voice from the distance. "Where are you?"

Pan looked in the direction that the voice was coming from. "Oh no! It's mom! I can't go back yet... I haven't found that flower!" She resumed her search, moving as fast as she could.

"Pan! Where are you?" Videl held her hands up, while calling her daughter. It had been quite some time since she last called for her, and she began to worry a little. Gohan stepped outside from the house, then approached Videl and stood beside her. "Is something wrong?" he asked.

"I've been calling Pan for almost twenty minutes, and she hasn't come back..."

"She's fine, Videl." he said, while placing his hand upon her shoulder. "She's a strong kid and can take care of herself. And I have no trouble feeling her ki, so you've got nothing to worry about! I'm going in now, I'm supposed to be helping my mom with something." Gohan gave his darling wife a little kiss on the cheek, then went back in.

Videl smiled at him as he disappeared through the doorway, then turned around and went to look for Pan. She walked past the streams, through the woods, and searched out any field she came across.

'Sniff' 'Sniff'... "This isn't it either..." Pan stood up after sampling another scent, then continued her hunt for the flower. "Could it be this one?"

"Pan!" Videl hollered again, after spotting her young daughter. Pan turned her attention to Videl, then walked up to her. "I've been calling you for a long time now," the mother said. "what have you been doing?"

"Hey, mama," Pan said. "can you smell that?"

Videl lifted her head slightly, and inhaled deeply. "Yes, I do. It smells very nice." she smiled.

"I've been tryin' to find it, can you help me?" Pan asked politely.

Videl rested her hand on Pan's wild, black hair, then took her by the hand and guided her. "Come on, I'll show you."

She led Pan to a bed of tiny, white flowers, then bent down and picked one of the petal-filled stems. She held it out for Pan to see, who leaned in and took a few sniffs.

"This is it!" Pan exclaimed. "That's the flower I was looking for!"

"It's called, an 'Alyssum'." Videl said, while handing it over to Pan. She sat down and relaxed on the ground, while her kid stood there messing with her little collection of the pretty petals. Pan started to take off again after another colorful thing caught her eye, until her mama stopped her for a moment.

"Why were you out here?" Videl asked, curious as to why the tomboyish warrior was picking flowers, instead of training.

"Grandpa brought me here the other day, while we were taking a break." Pan handed Videl the large handful of flowers she spent the past hour picking. "And I wanted to get these for you!"

Videl smiled joyfully, while accepting this lovely present. "Thank you Pan, I love them!" She gave her beloved daughter a big hug, and embraced her very tightly. From the warm, crisp afternoon, to the cool sunset, the two spent the entire evening frolicking around in their favorite spring garden.
