still don't DBZ

*Chapter 4*

Weeks had passed and Gohan recovered from his injuries, Gohan had left Pan at home with Chichi, while he worked on getting Trunks to become a super saiyan.

They were in some kind of field as Trunks began to power up, "That's it Trunks, you're doing it." Gohan said as he looked at his pupil "Let it go, the androids they're killers Trunks. They'll destroy me, your mother, you, and Pan!" Trunks rage was burning he couldn't bear the thought of losing his friends and family.

"Everything you hold dear is nothing more than a pile of trash to them. Don't be ashamed of your anger. Killing innocent people is wrong," Gohan felt Trunks ki getting higher as he kept talking.

"It's okay to hurt; it's okay to feel the rage. Harness it! Use it as a tool! You're doing it Trunks don't be afraid, let it go, let it all go!"

Trunks screamed as his hair began to fly up and his eyes changed color, but as suddenly as it came it went, his hair fell back down and his eyes turned back crystal blue as he fell on his knees exhausted.

"Man, I can't believe myself what a joke!" Trunks said as he threw a rock. They were resting in the outskirts a mile away from a nearby city.

"Hey relax, let's forget about becoming a super saiyan for a while," Gohan told him.

"But what am I doing wrong? You're my sensei, Gohan, you can tell me, why can't I do it?" Asked Trunks.

"You can," Trunks looked at him curiously. "Sure Trunks you just need to find the right motivation is all, for me it was simple all I had to do was think about how the androids killed Krillin, Piccolo, and my wife Videl, then I feel a horrible hurt, then the pain from that turns into rage, it's maddening. I don't want it to ever happen again, something that unfair and suddenly the dam breaks."

There was a loud boom coming from the nearby city and both Saiyans jumped up in alert.

"What? You got to be kidding me, oh man!" Gohan said getting angry.

"Damn those two!" Trunks said cursing the androids.

"This is ridicules; those people never even had a chance!" Gohan screamed as he turned super.

"Gohan you can't go."

"Look Trunks, no matter what happens, please stay here!"

"What? Are you crazy! No way, I can't let you fight those two alone!"

"Listen, I need your promise that you'll take care of Pan when I'm gone,"

Trunks looked at him shocked, why was he talking like this?

"Don't talk like that Gohan," Trunks said shaking his head. Pan needs you, I need you."

"Please Trunks, just promise me!"

Trunks slowly nodded his head.

"Good, thank you Trunks, now stay here."

"But you need my help, I'm much stronger this time, common I can't let you go alone with your injury, please Gohan let me go with you,"

"Alright Trunks you win, let's go get them," Gohan said.

"Alright, cool." Trunks said turning his head. Gohan then hit the pressure point in Trunks' neck, knocking him out.

"Sorry about that Trunks, but I wouldn't be able to forgive myself if anything happened to you. This is my battle for now little brother; you're not quite ready yet. Take good care of my little girl Trunks; I'm proud of the both of you." Gohan flew into the scene of the androids; he knew this was going to be his last battle.

Pan felt uneasy all day she knew something was wrong and it was getting late and her father hadn't returned. She tried to pin point his ki, she found to her horror that her father's ki was very weak and getting dimmer by every minute.

She got up from the couch where she was sitting and ran for the door. "Pan what's wrong?" Chichi asked.

"it's papa, he's in trouble, I have go help him, he needs me," Pan said, as she flew out the door and followed her father's ki signature, as it started to rain.

Trunks woke up to a fresh cloud of smoke in the nearby city he couldn't feel Gohan's energy anywhere, "Darn it Gohan why'd you go alone?!" Trunks was searching for Gohan throughout the whole city, he found Gohan, dead in the middle of a broken street, his body was lying face down in a puddle.

"Gohan..." He said tears running down his face. "Why'd you do it? This isn't fair! It's just not fair!" Trunks was so angry at himself for letting Gohan knock him out, but mostly he was angry at the androids for taking his friend way from him, someone who was like a father to him.

"You were my best friend, you were everything to me, everything, this just isn't fair, Gohan…Gohan…GOHAN!"

He screamed in agony, letting all his sadness and anger towards the androids out. He clenches his fists drawing blood; a yellow aura surrounded him as he yelled loudly. His hair flashed blonde and his eyes became teal. As he fell to his knees beside his friend's body, he turned into a full Super Saiyan for the first time.

Pan felt Trunks' ki rising and followed it; she quickly found them before falling onto her knees by her father's body, "daddy!" She whispered hoarsely as the tears were coming down. "No…no…no…PAPA!" She screamed into the sky.

Trunks went over to her to give her comfort; he was going to have to grieve on his own time, right now Pan needed him. Trunks held to her tightly as she screamed and cried into his shirt. He could faintly hear cries of why.

Trunks and Pan carried Gohan's body back to Pan's home, and gently laid his body on a bed. ChiChi was sobbing, her heart was breaking into a million pieces her only son and child was gone.

The next few weeks were difficult; they had buried Gohan's body by his favorite oak tree a couple of feet away from their house, Bulma came over with Trunks to comfort Chichi and Pan.

Pan was lying on the couch in the fettle position not facing anyone as the tears came pouring down.

"Chichi I've been giving this a lot of thought for the past couple of weeks, and I would like to know if you and Pan would like to stay with Trunks and me?"

Chichi looked at Bulma, "You really want us to stay with you?" Chichi asked.

"Yes, you can't raise Pan on your own, you need help, and I should have done this a long time ago, Chichi. We're all we have left, we got to stick together."

Chichi wiped the tears from her eyes, "that sounds like a great idea," Chichi turned to Pan who still was lying on the couch, "Doesn't that sound like a great idea Pan?"

Pan didn't answer, "Pan your grandmother's speaking to you, Pan…Pan…Panda." Chichi said trying to get her granddaughter to talk.

When Pan heard Chichi call her Panda she faced her, "Don't call me that! Only daddy calls me Panda, nobody else!" She yelled as she got off the couch and ran to her room, slamming the door behind her.

Chichi sighed, "She's been acting like this ever since Gohan died," Chichi said telling Bulma. "She doesn't talk to me unless she's angry, she barley eats anymore, and she won't let me comfort her when she cry's."

Bulma rubbed Chichi's back, "She lost the most important man in life Chichi, a girl's daddy is the center of her life at Pan's age. You just need to give her some time,"

While the two women were still talking Trunks snuck off to Pan's room to comfort her, "I don't want to go," Pan sobbed as she lay on her bed. Trunks rubbed her back,

"Hey I know it's hard Pan, but my mom's right we need to stick together, you and I are the last of the saiyan race." Pan sniffled, "Why did it have to be this way? Why did he have to leave me?" Pan cried.

Trunks did the only thing he could think to do. He put a hand on her shoulder which caused Pan sit up and look at him, she was still crying however, "I'm so sorry Pan, I'm so sorry. I feel like this is my fault, if only I was there to help him," Trunks let a few tears out wishing with all his heart that this nightmare wasn't true, he hated the androids for what they did, they not only took his best friend away but Pan lost her father.

Pan grabbed Trunks' arm and hugged him. "Don't blame yourself Trunks, it wasn't you fault," she told him her tears soaking his shirt.

This broke Trunks' heart, this girl had lost everything. He took his free arm and put it around Pan and patted the back of her head. "It's going to be alright." He assured her while patting her head.

They sat there like that for a while till Trunks broke the silence, "Would you like it better if asked you to stay with us?"

"I might," said Pan as she wiped her tears.

"Then will you stay with us?" Trunks asked.

Pan thought about it then she slowly nodded her head yes."

"Good," Trunks said, "I'll tell my mom you said yes," Trunks said as he was headed for the door.

"Trunks?" Pan said stopping him in mid step, she walked over to him and gave him a hug, "Thank you for being there for me when I needed you the most, will you always be my friend?"

Trunks smirked at her and returned the hug, "Of course I'll always be you friend, pipsqueak."
