Hey, it's me! It's time to go back to Pan and the Golden Duo! Let's keep reviewing! And expect the appearance of another old friend! And watch out for a popular movie reference.

Chapter 27

"Man, it feels like we've been flying forever!" Ron groaned as he stretched his arms and then rubbed his eyes to avoid the sun's rays as the sun sank over the horizon.

"Well Ron, we have passed over several time zones. So Ron, your biological clock is still adjusting to our current time zone, which, according to the map, puts us over Germany's Black Forest. This should be a good place to rest." Hermione said as she lowered a map of the world.

"Sounds good. Okay nimbus, you've done enough for today. You can rest." Pan smiled as she patted the cloud. Almost immediately, the cloud slowed down and headed towards the forest beneath them. After a minute, the cloud shot beneath the trees, and stopped a foot above the ground. Pan hopped off first, due to Ron being a gentleman(Both Pan and Hermione rolled their eyes when he said that.) Ron came off next, taking several minutes due to his injured arm. Hermione came off next, with her bag in hand. It had taken a few minutes to cram everything that she had been reading on the cloud into it. Once they were all off, the Flying Nimbus shot into the sky and vanished.

"Bye Nimbus, see you tomorrow!" Pan waved as the cloud disappeared.

ROAR!

Ron and Hermione whirled around in shock as they drew their wands to try and find the source of the sound.

"What the bloody hell was that? Bill didn't tell me that there were dragons in Germany!" Ron squeaked.

"Don't be stupid, Ron! That wasn't a dragon. They're not native to the Black Forest." Hermione scoffed.

"Ummm… guys?" Pan asked nervously.

"WHAT?" both wizards screamed at the demi-saiyan.

"That was my stomach. I'm hungry." Pan laughed nervously.

"Is everyone in your bloody family like this?" Ron yelled as Hermione slapped her face. Then, Ron's stomach grumbled, followed by Hermione's a split second later. After they looked at each other with smiles on their faces, they burst into laughter.

"I guess we're all starving!" Pan giggled.

"It's a good thing that Gohan's mother packed a lot of food for us. But first… Protego Maximama!" Hermione said as she raised her wand and waved it, making a blue light shimmer for a second.

"Oh! I get it! Here, let's try a few spells from my generation!" Pan smirked as she raised her wand, getting surprised looks from Ron and Hermione.

"Barrius Superious!" Then, a purple light shot from Pan's wand and lit up the air for a brief instant.

"Impressive. Ron, can you find the tent while me and Pan set up the protection charms?" Hermione asked.

"Fine… bloody hell, this thing is packed." Ron muttered as he shuffled his good arm through Hermione's bag. After a few minutes, Pan and Hermione were done. Then, they turned to see Ron still shuffling through Hermione's bag.

"Sigh… Accio tent!" Then, Ron yelled in shock as the tent flew out of the bag and collapsed at his feet.

"Nice Accio spell, Ron!" Hermione called as Pan pocketed her wand.

"Ummm… right! Thanks, Hermione!" Ron said. Then, Pan flicked her wand, causing the tent to assemble itself, earning another startled scream from Ron.

"You gotta love him." Pan chuckled.

"Yeah…" Hermione sighed.

"Hey, where did the tent come from, anyway?" Pan asked as she and Hermione walked towards the tent.

"I got it from Perkins. Me, Ron, Harry, and the other Weasleys slept in it during the Quidditch World Cup." Hermione answered as Ron staggered to his feet.

"Hey, what and when did this come from?" Pan asked as she pointed at a scorch mark on the side of the tent. Hermione laughed nervously.

"All I'll say is that it involved Vegeta and Ron's mum." Pan blinked at the muggle-born with shock.

"Are you serious?" Pan blinked with surprise.

"Yeah. It was nasty." Ron spoke up as he came out of the tent.

"So, would a gentleman such as yourself show these young ladies to dinner?" Pan smirked at the look of surprise on Ron's face.

"Well… I… uummm…" Ron stammered nervously as he shifted his broken arm.

"Relax, Uncle Ron, I was messing with you!" Pan giggled as she flicked her wand, causing a table and three chairs to fly out of the bag and assemble themselves in front of the three wizards, complete with candlelight.

"Bloody hell!" Ron gasped.

"I must admit Pan, your magical skills are incredible!" Hermione said with surprise.

"I do have special blood." Pan blushed.

"I don't believe in blood. I believe magical skill comes from how hard you study and how great your dedication is. I'm a perfect example of that!" Hermione smiled.

"Awwww, thanks Hermione!" Then, Pan's stomach rumbled again.

"Let's eat!" Pan grinned as she reached into Hermione's bag and pulled out a capsule. Then, she clicked it and tossed it on the table, causing a puff of smoke. When it faded, it revealed…

"Spaghetti and meatballs!" Ron, Hermione, and even Pan gaped at the set table and aroma of food.

"I didn't even know that you could store food in capsules and keep it hot! That's amazing!" Hermione gaped.

"Don't ever let Gin or anyone else know, but I think Gohan's mum cooks better than mine!" Ron gaped as he plopped himself next to Hermione.

"Ronald! Shame on you!" Hermione scolded as she hid a giggle.

"Can we eat before my stomach eats me?" Pan slyly grinned. Then, all three wizards dove in. to Ron and Hermione's surprise, Pan didn't shovel it all down at once. Instead, she ate like an actual human being.

"Wow Pan, you eat like a normal person!" Ron said with a half-filled mouth, earning a slap from Hermione.

"Thanks for noticing. I never got to eat much back in my time, so my tummy adjusted." Pan said as she rubbed it. Despite Pan's eating habits, she finished first. Then, as she watched Ron and Hermione eat, she got a tiny smile on her face. While Hermione was scolding Ron over his table manners, Pan took out her wand and whispered a tiny incantation as she pretended to wipe her mouth. Then, Hermione's plate hovered a tiny bit off the table and moved to the left slightly, putting it between Ron and Hermione. Then, without looking, Ron dug his fork into Hermione's plate and brought it to his mouth, while Hermione absentmindly brought her own fork to her mouth. Pan giggled as she watched Ron and Hermione suck on one strand of spaghetti, until there was almost nothing. Then, both their lips met. Ron blinked with surprise, while Hermione's cheeks turned red. Pan giggled as she flicked her wand again, causing the radio in the tent to turn on. For a few seconds, there was static. Then…

"Oh this is the night, it's a beautiful night

And we call it bella notte

Look at the skies, they have stars in their eyes

On this lovely bella notte.

Side by side with your loved one,

You'll find enchantment here.

The night will weave its magic spell,

When the one you love is near!

Oh this is the night, and the heavens are right!

On this lovely bella notte!"

"I remember that song. I saw it in a muggle movie when I was a little girl…" Hermione said softly after her lips separated from Ron's.

"Lady and the Tramp, to be precise." Pan smiled.

"I had no idea that there were still muggle movies in your time." Hermione said.

"Yeah… I do happen to know a thing or two about love, believe it or not." Pan giggled as she flicked her wand again, causing the plates to fly into the kitchen part of the tent and begin to clean themselves, while the table flew back into Hermione's bag. Then, Pan flicked her wand again, causing several twigs to fly out of the forest and assemble themselves near the tent. Then, they burst into flame. Confused, Pan turned to see Hermione lower her own wand.

"Can't let you have all the fun." Hermione smirked. It wasn't long before they were sitting around the campfire and chatting like old friends.

"So then, Gohan gets spit out of the dragon's mouth, grabs the egg, and wins the task." Ron finished, getting a giggle from Pan.

"That sounds… exactly like my dad." Pan giggled. Then, Pan froze.

"What is it? You look like you've seen a ghost, Pan!" Ron laughed nervously.

"I heard a twig snap… but I can't sense anything! I don't get it!" Pan said as she looked around frantically.

"It was probably a small animal, Pan. I've read up on all the species in the forest. There are many small animals around here." Hermione answered.

SNAP! This time, everyone heard that.

"What was that?" Ron squeaked.

"There's no way it's a Death Eater. Nothing alive can get past these protections." Hermione said as she gripped her wand. Then, a large figure could be seen in the trees near the fire.

"It's a sasquatch!" Ron squeaked as he fumbled to grab his wand.

"d-don't b-be silly, R-ron!" Hermione squeaked as she clung onto Ron with her free hand. Then, the mysterious figure finally appeared in the firelight, making everyone gasp. It looked like a human man, but he was huge, at least 7 feet tall. He was dressed in a green armor, and had a red Mohawk. Over his right chest was what looked like a Capsule Corp logo. (guess who!)

"Greetings." The man said in a deep and partially mechanical voice.

"Gak! W-who are you?" Ron squeaked.

"Wait… I know who you are! Gohan told us all about you! You're Android 16!" Hermione gasped as she pointed at the android.

"Correct. That is my identification number." Android 16 said with a smile.

What the? What is Android 16 doing in the Black Forest? Has the new golden trio found a new ally? Review!
