*Chapter 26*
"I'm gonna miss you and Trunks so much," Gohan told Pan. It had been a few days since the whole tournament with Bojack. They were sitting on the edge of the balcony of Capsule Corp looking at the stars. Everyone was staying the night because Trunks and Pan were leaving the next morning to go back to their own timeline.
"We'll miss you too dad," Pan said sighing, "But Trunks and I need to go back to our own timeline. We still have to take care of the androids and then there's waiting for Cell show his nasty face and rebuilding our world again. The androids have done so much damage."
"I'm sorry, I guess I'm just being selfish, I've gotten so attach to you and Trunks, it's going to be hard to say goodbye," Gohan had a sad look in his eyes.
Pan had sad smile on her face, "It's not really goodbye dad, it's more like see you later. Trunks is already born in this timeline and if you wait a few years so will I… well that is if you still want me after what you've seen what I'm like," Pan joked.
Gohan laughed lightly, "I wouldn't trade you for anything Panda."
Pan leaned her head on Gohan's shoulder, "I don't regret a single thing that has happened in my life. Even though Trunks and I have both faced so many sorrows in our young lives, we still have each other and the people who love us the most," Pan said happily.
"Pan?" Gohan asked, "Could you tell me what your mother was like?" Pan lifted her head and looked at her teenage father.
"I don't remember much about her, she died when I was four," Pan said with a sad look in her eyes.
"Oh, I'm so sorry Pan," Gohan said sympathetically, his poor Mirai daughter had lost so much in her short life.
"It's okay, the you in my time used to tell a little of what she was like, you said she was beautiful. That I look just like her except I have your eyes, that you knew she was the one the moment you met her, you said she was like an angel in the darkness," Pan said going back to when her father was still alive and used to tuck her in at night. Telling her wonderful stories, about her mother.
"She sounds like an amazing girl," Gohan said. "I hope I can find her."
Pan smiled, "Sure you will, it doesn't matter what timeline you're from, when two people are meant for each other, destiny will always bring them together."
Gohan smiled at his Mirai daughter, "Just like you and Trunks?"
Pan nodded. They sat there in silence before Gohan spoke up again, "I hope I'll be as brave you and Trunks are someday," Gohan said surprising Pan.
"But you already are dad; Trunks and I wouldn't be the way we are today if it wasn't for you. You're the one who taught us everything we know and it was you who taught us to be brave, even if it was the Mirai you, it's still you none the less. You took on Cell all by yourself before things got bad, you defeated Bojack all by yourself, you're braver then you think."
Gohan looked at Pan for a moment before smiling. "Thanks Pan," Gohan said enjoying the last moments he would have with his future daughter.
The next day came quickly, Trunks and Pan were wearing the same clothes they came to the past in. Trunks in his blue Capsule Corp jacket and black shirt and jeans and golden boots with black tips and Pan in her red Capsule Corp jacket and black tank top shirt and purple shorts and red high-tops with white tips.
Everyone had Black strips of cloth on their right arms, to signified that someone close had died. It was a way of paying their respects to Goku.
They had already said their goodbyes to Chichi and Bulma. The two women had cried their eyes out. They knew that Mirai Trunks and Pan didn't belong in their timeline but that wasn't going to stop then from missing the two dearly.
Trunks finished capsulizing all the souvenirs they were going to bring back for their mother/grandmother. Everyone had gathered outside to see Trunks and Pan off.
"I'm so proud of you guys," Bulma said, while giving them a hug. "We can't thank you two enough for what you've done for us. Everyone on Earth owes you their lives!" Bulma said holding back the tears that were coming back.
Trunks and Pan said their goodbyes to the Z-Fighters.
"We're going to miss you guys," Krillin told them, "You'll always be a part of our group."
"Thanks Krillin, we'll miss you too," Pan said giving him a hug. Trunks shook hands with the all Z-Fighters while Pan hugged them all goodbye.
"Common Trunks, we need to say goodbye to Veggie too," Pan said grabbing Trunks' hand and making the Z-Fighters burst out laughing.
"What did you just call my father?" Trunks asked.
"Veggie," Pan said simply.
"Goodbye you guys," Yamucya said when the group finally calmed down after they were all done laughing. "You two be careful back in your time."
"We will," Trunks told him. "We're going to make things right once and for all," he told them before he and Pan said their final goodbyes to the Z-Fighters and walked over to Vegeta.
Trunks and Pan stopped in front of Vegeta who was leaning against a tree with his arms crossed.
He looked at them, Pan let go of Trunks' hand and surprised Vegeta by hugging him. Vegeta recovered from his little shock before he slowly hugged her back.
"It was great meeting you Vegeta," she told him, "You take good care of Bulma and Baby Trunks."
"I'll do that Pan," Vegeta said smirking as they pulled apart. Vegeta looked over at his son "You take care of your woman, boy."
"I will," Trunks told him. Vegeta looked down at the ground for a moment before looking back up at Trunks again. "I'm proud of you son," he told Trunks, surprising the lavender haired saiyan.
"Thank you father," Trunks said as a smirk was crossing his face.
Vegeta had a slight smile on his face as he gave his son the two finger saiyan salute. Trunks smiled back at his father before saluting back.
They made their way over to where Chichi, Bulma and Gohan were standing.
Gohan hugged Pan tightly trying not to cry. Pan choked back her own tears as well, "I'll miss you so much Panda, I love you like you're my own," Gohan said the tears finally pouring down.
"I'll miss you too daddy and I love you too," Pan said wiping the tears from her eyes.
Gohan pulled himself together as walked up to Trunks, "You better take care of my daughter Trunks," Gohan said giving Trunks a man hug.
Trunks smirked, "You can count on it Gohan."
Pan hugged Chichi goodbye as Trunks hugged Bulma goodbye. They both flew up into their time machine.
With one last look at everyone and with sad smiles on their faces and a small wave they were off, back to future.
The future never looked so welcoming. The time machine had stopped and Trunks and Pan were back in their own time. It was still a wreck, but it was home.
Trunks and Pan jumped out of the time machine and ran inside what was left of Capsule Corp.
They headed down to the basement knowing they would find Bulma and Chichi in there.
"Hey you guys!" Trunks greeted happily getting the women's attentions.
"Trunks!/Pan!" Bulma and Chichi screamed before they attacked the kids in a big hug.
"Oh my Kami you two have grown," Bulma said surprised, "You guys look… older?"
"What took you guys so long?" Chichi asked.
"It's a very long story Granma," Pan said as Trunks nodded.
"Why don't we all head to the kitchen and we'll explain everything Trunks suggested.
They all headed to the kitchen, Bulma made tea for everyone.
"So would you mind telling us how you've grown so much in almost two months?" Bulma asked.
"Well we spent some time in this room where you could spend a year in there when only a day passes on the outside," Trunks explained.
"So we've been gone for only two months?" Pan asked. "It seems like it's been longer."
Chichi nodded.
"Ok, where should we begin," Trunks said. He and Pan told their mother and grandmother about the five extra androids including Gero himself. They told them about finding Cell and the hyperbolic time chamber. They told them about androids Thirteen, Fourteen, and Fifteen, Broly, Hatchiyack, They talked about the Cell Games and about Goku's noble sacrifice only for it to be in vain. They talked about Cell coming back and Killing Trunks, that was a tough part. Both women started crying and Bulma held onto her son for dear life. Pan didn't like talking about it at all so she quickly finished it with Vegeta attacking Cell and after that her and Gohan killing Cell. And then the tournament and Bojack.
"I can't believe it," Bulma said sniffing as she finally let go of Trunks and went to her seat again. "I could have lost you… I don't… I don't think I would've been able to live if I lost my only child."
"It's okay Mom," Trunks told her smiling and patting her hand to reassure her.
"I'm still alive."
"I still can't believe it though, Vegeta tried to avenge you," Bulma said sighing, "That arrogant man actually did something noble."
"He's changed a lot from the man that we first met almost two years ago," Pan said.
"So Goku died in the end anyway," Chichi said sadly, "But that sounds just Goku not wanting to be wished back."
"Yeah, he believed it was for the best," Trunks said.
Pan smiled as she and Trunks took out some capsules out of their pockets.
"We brought you guys some gifts from the past," Pan explained.
They opened the capsules, Trunks gave Bulma her gifts a locket, some old equipment that the Bulma of the other timeline let him have, and a pair of new shoes.
Pan gave Chichi her gifts, a dark blue dress, a sewing machine, and new cookware.
"Thank you Trunks I love these gifts," Bulma said giving her son a hug.
"Panny, I love it so much," Chichi said kissing her granddaughter on the cheek.
Everybody started to settle down when the announcement on the radio boomed in the kitchen
"This just in, the androids have struck again!" said the frightened reporter. "They're destroying what's left of East City!" Trunks and Pan stood up.
"You're not thinking about fighting them now are you?" ChiChi asked. "You two just got back!"
"I know granma," Pan said softly smiling. "But the longer we wait, the more people the androids are gonna hurt."
"Don't worry about us," Trunks reassured them. "We're going to put an end to the androids once and for all."
"We believe in you!" Bulma said confidently. "Get them and make them pay!"
"Go get them you two" ChiChi told them smiling.
Trunks and Pan nodded, smirking. They headed outside towards East City, taking to the skies.
Okay so that'll be the last chapter till Wednesday, Thursday or Friday.
