Chp 4

Pan-Universe 10

Marron showed her the docks and she quickly got in line last as per her restrictions. She was shown to a lower-level cabin and was left there. It was still opulent though. The seats were made of golden filigree and metal. The tables glittered from some unknown mineral and the lamp was a strange mixture between a lava lamp and a regular lamp. She sat back and watched lazily as the lava shifted forms within the lamp. Having nothing else to do she levitated to the roof and down over and over. The doors hissed open, and she gazed at wide blue eyes as they spotted her squatting on the deck roof.

Pan giggled nervously. "Uh hi?"

Marron frowned. "How did you get up there?"

"Same way I'm getting down, watch," she said as she flipped and floated to her feet.

"You can fly?" yelled Marron and Pan winced holding her ear nodding.

"Can you teach me?"

Pan read her ki. It was large for a human but then her parents were Krillen and Eighteen. A superhuman and an android. Marron had potential. Time to awaken that potential. She did help me out.

"Ok, shut the door." Pan said grinning as she began floating again.

"What? Now? Here?" asked Marron as she came closer and Pan gripped her hand.

"The only thing you are learning today is how to call on your ki. It's the basics of moves like ki blasts and flying. Sit and concentrate on that flame that burns deep inside. Everyone has one."

Marron nodded and slowly meditated into a trance calling on her Ki. Her father had taught her the basics, but no one would teach her more.

"Good! Now concentrate on making it hotter until you can't anymore."

This was harder as every time she increased her Ki it shot up then down again.

She huffed biting her lip and trying again.

"Ki is circular," said Pan. "Feel mine and what it does."

Marron stretched her ki muscle and felt Pan's ki. She gasped. "You're circulating it through your body like a big cog wheel!"

Pan nodded. "Mhmm, and when you fly you have to keep it circling or you'll fall out of the air."

Marron smiled and tried again this time circulating her ki. She cried in joy when her ki stayed in position and rose.

"Look Marron. Look at yourself! You're levitating." cried Pan as she giggled when Marron shyly glanced down and watched in wonderment as her body levitated a few feet from the ground.

"To come down slowly stop circulating Ki very slowly," said Pan as she showed Marron her landing on her feet.

Marron nodded and concentrated lowering slowly until she was down again and laughed standing from her chair. She felt very exhausted, and Pan let her friend stretch on the chairs and take a nap. Not even a fourth of the way to Vegita sei the ship trembled so hard Marron fell out of her chair while Pan awoke on the roof lazily. She floated down.

"Mare, are you ok?" she called as Marron shot up angry.

"Yes, but what the heck was that?"

The doors hissed open, and two space pirates came through laughing. "Cane there are girls here as well. Pretty ones too," he said checking Pan and Marron out. Marron's eye twitched and unconsciously using her ki she punched a space pirate while Pan smiled and took out the other.

"Nice punch," said Pan as she grabbed Marron and they headed for the gala where the rest of the girls were kept.

"Thank you," replied Marron blushing at the audacity she just had.

They heard more space pirates in the hall and hid behind an open room door. It seemed like most girls had also been taking a nap. Pan hinted at the space pirate right in front of them.

She was going after him. She floated behind him withholding her breath and wrapping her arm around his mouth, she chopped his clavicle. Pan floated with the body and gently laid it on the ground. Then she grabbed his large gun and a smaller pistol. The latter she gave to Marron.

They moved on to the gala soundlessly, their eyes darting back and forth. The only sound they could hear was the beating of their hearts and the susurration of Marron's skirt against the ground. From the pane glass window, Pan saw a disgusting pirate put his mauls on a girl as he tried to kiss her. Pan loaded her weapon and shot a beam that speared the pirate's head, turning it to cinders.

The girl screamed, alarming the rest to Pan and Marron's entrance. Both girls climbed to the skylights and balanced on the high beams shooting space pirates Two were on Pan's side and three were on Marron's. The recoil of the gun wasn't strong enough to derail either girl's shooting as lights lit up the gala. Five down one more to go.

The leader having enough flew to the skylights on carapace wings.

"Marron you can float down remember?" said Pan as she rolled backward from the big ugly space pirate.

Marron nodded and jumped remembering to circle her ki and slowly she floated down while taking pock shots at the monster, he had a hard exoskeleton. They bounced right off his carapace.

Pan gritted her teeth and propelled herself backward before lunging at the space pirate and punching him. He lost balance and fell causing the ship to dent.

"Bam!"

Pan flew down and stood in the fighting style she knew. The space pirate stood and with a mighty jump propelled himself through the air with his wings, at her. Come on you overgrown cockroach Bring it! I am dying for a good fight!

She powered up and lunged at him elbowing his face, cracking his nose, spilling green blood. It felt thick and sticky on her elbow, like syrup. A squirt of it landed on her face. Thank Dende he isn't venomous. Ick! Bugs!

She kneed his diaphragm which made him hurl pieces of what she identified as their pilot from the medals. The smell of it made her want to repeat the action much like hiccups jumped from person to person but she pushed her gorge down. Pan finished with a hook to the face spraying more bug blood. It felt extra sticky on her knuckles.

He swayed from side to side before trying to punch where Pan was. She fazed out and appeared behind him ax kicking him to the ground where he stayed. He made a splattered mess with syrupy green fluid leaking from his insides.

Marron shot him in the head for good measure.

One of the girls was an expert flier and she began to fly the ship where the Saiyans wanted to talk to the captain.

Everyone looked at Pan.

"No way! Nuh-uh no," she said crossing her arms and swiping at the bug blood on her face. It just got her other hand dirty.

Marron did her puppy eyes and she sighed taking the small electric communicator from her hands and putting it on.

"This is Pan. We have been attacked by space pirates but are on our way, over."
