********************Pan's Room*************************

"Really Pan. You had us all worried! Are you absolutely positive that you feel alright?" Bra asked. Pan had been released the following morning, and she was already back to her old, cheerful self.

"Yeah. I'm feeling back to my old self. And as much as I'd hate to admit is, my parents were right. My life would've become a mess is I had those children."

"But I feel so terrible. You even had names picked out for them. Fui and Juno. Those are really beautiful names."

Pan sighed. "Yes. The only other thing I could do while I was in my room besides mourn was picking out their names."

(An: Fui is from Rayearth *I think...* And Juno is from True Lies, one of my favorite Action movies.)

"Yeah..." Bra and Pan sat in a comfortable silence until a familiar feeling ripped through their heads like a lightning bolt.

"Oh my God..." they both said.

********************Son Lawn****************************

~30 Minutes Later

Gohan had felt it. Goku had felt it. Goten had felt it. Vegeta had felt it. The entire Z gang and their families had felt the energy of the monster that was approaching, and they had all gathered on the Son's lawn to greet it with fury and their fists.

There were two monsters approaching, but only one could be successfully identified. And at the moment, only one mattered. It was only a matter of minutes before the long awaited battle would take place, and not one person wasn't ready to fight.

Then, a twinkle is the sky could be seen as the monster rapidly approached. It was visible now, and so was its companion. With in minutes, both had landed, and not one word had been uttered.

The beast with long, black fur was the first to speak up. "I'm simply returning a gift that came to me from the sky awhile ago." Keiko looked around. "Where is the one named Vegeta?"

The proud prince stepped forward. "Over here. And who might you be?"

"My name is Keiko Asashi, and I am the daughter of Elaine Asashi, who was the wife of Nappa. I've heard of some of your past actions, so I'm assuming that you know who I am."

Vegeta snorted. "Get serious. Nappa's wife died when our home planet was destroyed! There is no way that you are of saiyan blood."

"Perhaps you did not no your minions as well as you thought you did. Do you remember the report of a spaceship being hijacked on Planet Vegeta?"

Vegeta nodded.

"That was my mother's first husband, Nappa. He had gotten word of a rumor that Freiza was going to destroy Vegeta, and he hijacked the ship, and told my mother to flee."

"I would rather hear this from the mouth of your mother, than from you. Where is your mother?"

"My mother perished from the heart virus that wiped out thousands over a decade ago. I'm sure the one named Goku knows well of it."

"I sure do! Man o man that virus is a real slobber knocker!" Goku answered.

"I still don't believe you girl. Prove to me that you are of the saiyan race." Keiko's eyebrow twitched, and in a flash of light, she had powered up to super saiyan. Vegeta's jaw, along with everyone else's hit the floor.

"Do you believe me now?" she asked as the de-transformed. Vegeta said nothing and Keiko walked back to Trunks's side.

All this time, Trunks had not said a word to anyone. He had simply locked his eyes with Pan, and remained stationary. Once he felt that it had been silent enough, Trunks opened his mouth to speak. "Pan?" she held up a hand to silence him.

"Give me one good reason why I should tear you limb from limb."

"Pan? Can't we talk somewhere more private?"

"That isn't the answer that I was looking for!" she roared. "Do you have even the slightest clue of the hell I've been through these past few weeks? Do you?!"

".............."

"Of course you don't! Because you flew off somewhere, and left me thinking that you were dead! SO I'll tell you what happened Trunks! I got pregnant! That's right! I was carrying your children! Not child, children!"

Trunks felt the blood leave his face and he fought the urge to faint. "M-my children?"

"Did not you listen to one word I said?! I WAS carrying your children! And now they're DEAD! That's right! D-E-A-D! All because I can't watch where my feet are taking me! But, if you had been here, I wouldn't have had to go through all this grief, and Fui and Juno might still be alive!" Pan began to produce sparks around her body and she was glowing a strange red.

Trunks just silently stood there, as embarrassed as hell, and a bit nervous.

"And exactly WHAT were you doing with...with...her?!" she yelled as she pointed and accusing finger at Keiko. More so by accident, both Trunks's and Keiko's faces emitted a guilty look, giving Pan her answer. Pan's hand fell to her side, and her face was void of all emotions. "You.... slept with her...didn't you?"

Trunks remained silent. Pan closed her eyes for a moment...then she screamed at the top of her lungs. "You son-of-a-bitch!" Everyone had to cover their eyes when, in an explosion of anger, Pan ascended to SSJ2.

"Oh my God." Was all Trunks could whisper.

"I'm going to make you feel the pain that I've endured this past month. I'm going show you the pain I felt when I found out that while I was screaming your name in pain, you were screaming for that.... that whore!"

Keiko stepped forward. "Maybe what we did was wrong, but I am NOT a whore!" Trunks brushed Keiko aside and started at Pan with a new intensity in his sky blue eyes.

"Keiko is right. We need to talk some where else."

Pan's energy only rose. "I'm through talking!" Pan charged at Trunks, and before he could retaliate, Pan had kneed him in the stomach, and struck his face with her right hand, sending him through a nearby tree.

Keiko could only look on in horror. "Stop it! That's enough!"

Pan glared at Keiko. "Just shut the hell up! You don't know my pain! You probably just rode him like a wild cat and threw him out."

Keiko closed her eyes in an attempt to calm herself, and failed miserably. "You're wrong! I did love him! And did you ever think that he still loved YOU?!" Everyone had to shield his or her eyes once more as Keiko also ascended.

"Trunks already proved to me that he didn't care. And like I said, wild cat, you probably just got your thrill, and threw him out."

"No, apparently that's what you did!" In a spur of rage, Pan slapped Keiko across her face. Not wasting a moment, Keiko retaliated with a left hook to Pan's face, sending her back a few feet.

Pan cried out, but she recovered quickly. She started intently at the girl before her. Suddenly, both girls screamed and charged for each other. Various spheres of energy were seen as the two ruthlessly battered each other. Even Goku and Vegeta were having a hard time keeping up with their speed.

"You guys! We have got to stop them before someone gets hurt!" Videl cried.

"Why? Seeing two girls beat the stuffing out of each other is a real turn- on." Goten absently said. Bra socked him in the gut and his grin disappeared. "I mean.... I agree with you in full, Videl."

"Leave them be." Vegeta ordered. "Let them fight until there is nothing to fight about."

"That's absurd!" Videl yelled.

"Then why don't you try and stop them?" Vegeta cockily asked. Now seeing Vegeta's point, Videl fell silent. The entire group looked up when the saw and unusually large energy sphere emit. Then next thing they saw was both Keiko and Pan falling to the ground.

Both stopped in mid-air and wiped the blood from their mouths. Pan's shirt was torn, and only shreds of her sweat pants remained.

Keiko had a large hole in the back of her shirt and her khaki pants looked more like cargo shorts. "I'm going to end this right here." Pan announced.

"Bring it on." Keiko retorted.

"Girls! Stop it!" Trunks screamed from the ground. "I'm not worth this!"

"You most certainly are not, but this bitch is asking for it!" Pan hissed. Both girls stared at each other; pulled their wrist together at their sides; and began to chant in unison.

"This isn't happening." Goku said in disbelief.

"I think it is." Chi Chi breathed from her husband's side.

"There's no..." Goten began.

"...way..."Bra continued.

"....that she could know..." Vegeta carried on.

“.... the kamehameha wave." Goku finished.

"Ka...me...ha...me...ha!" Both girls screamed at the blue blast emitted from their hands. The blasts met in mid-air, and a large dome of energy created. Each moment, the dome grew bigger, but neither Pan or Keiko showed signs of giving up soon.

Finally, after what seemed like a millennia, the dome exploded, but the result wasn't what anyone had expected.

The waves had canceled each other out, sending both Pan and Keiko crashing to the ground. Both were about to get up and continue their fight when they found that two warriors had stepped forward and restrained them. Gohan had restrained Pan, and Goku had restrained Keiko.

"That's enough you two. No more fighting. Instead, Keiko, you can stay with me and Chi Chi, while Pan and Trunks work out their problems."

"I'm not done with her yet!" Keiko screamed.

"Let me go dad! That bitch is still breathing! I'm not done!" Both struggled ruthlessly, and after a moment, got free. But out of nowhere, both girls were hit with an extremely powerful energy blast. It was so strong that it caused them to fall out of SSJ and crash to the ground, unconscious.

The one who had emitted the blast was.....Vegeta.

"Both of the girls are fine, so don't even starting the 'why did you do that' speech." Vegeta turned towards his son. "Now may be your only chance son. Take Kakorott's granddaughter and leave. I had become tired of this soap opera a long time ago. Leave!" Trunks nodded and ran over to Pan. He gingerly lifted her up in his arms and looked in the direction of his sister.

"Bra, can you take Keiko back to our place? I'll catch up with you later." Goku asked. Bra nodded. She ran over to Keiko; slapped her over her shoulder; and took off towards Goku and Chi Chi's house just as Trunks flew off to some unknown destination.

********************Elder Son Residence**********************

Keiko groaned as she heard a voice. "Are you okay now?" A tender voice asked. Keiko groaned again, as she tried to get an answer out. "Guess that's a no..." The male voice playfully answered.

Keiko shifted in the bed she was in before she opened her eyes, and met the face of..."Goku?"

"Yeah. That would be me." Keiko turned her face away, as she was disgusted with herself. She had no right to stare a legend of her race in the face after how she had behaved earlier.

(Me: Damn right you have no right! Goku is far too cute (for his age...) to be stared in the face by a !@#$% like you! I know many of you out there agree...)

"Hey! Why the long face there?"

"I have no right to stare a legend like yourself in the face after the way I've behaved...I've disgraced myself enough."

"If it makes you feel any better, I have no problem staring you in the face." Keiko's eyes watered up and she smiled for the first time in awhile. She slowly turned her head so that she could see Goku. "That's better. You look much better with that pretty smile on!" Keiko blushed.

"AHEM!" Chi Chi said loudly from the doorway.

"Chill out babe! You know that you're the only one for me!" Goku innocently defended himself.

Chi Chi strode over to Goku. "Of course I'm the only one for you. No one else would put up with your goofiness." She answered as she sat on his lap. Chi Chi playfully slapped Goku on his shoulder. "Goof ball!"

"Oh yeah?!" Goku flexed his fingers and began to tickle Chi Chi mercilessly. She laughed/screamed and tried to squirm away from him to no avail, as he had one arm wrapped around her waist.

"I envy you..." Keiko suddenly said, stopping the laughing fest.

"Envy? Us?" Chi Chi asked in awe. "Why?"

"You two have been together so long, and you're still happy together. I can't stay with a man two months before he starts hating me. Why can't I find true love?!" Keiko blinked and hot tears splashed all over her face.

Feeling sorry for her, Chi Chi crawled out of her husband's lap and pulled the younger girl into a hug. "I have the answer to your question. Stop looking for true love. It'll find you."

"But I thought it found me when it came falling 200 feet from the sky!" she sobbed. Chi Chi threw a yearning glance in Goku's direction, but he only shrugged. Just then, Keiko lifted her head from Chi Chi chest as she heard someone coming up the stairs. Both Goku and Chi Chi looked towards the door as the knob turned.

"So what's all the ruckus about? Goten just called me and said that Trunks was back, but he wouldn't say anymore than that. Could you guys te-" Uubu lost the ability to speak as he got a good look at who was lying in the bed.

Keiko also froze when the door was fully open and she caught sight of Uubu. Uubu shook himself out of his trance and flew towards the bedside, knocking Chi Chi aside, thereby earning a death glare from Goku.

"W-what's your name?" Uubu eagerly asked as he grasped one of her hands between two of his own.

"Keiko...Asashi." You could almost see the hearts protruding from Keiko's eyes. "And you?"

"Just call me...Uubu." Chi Chi and Goku glanced back and forth between Keiko and Uubu before they met each other's eyes; nodded, and walked out of the room, sweat dropping like there was no tomorrow.

(Attention! This is the LAST you will ever see of Keiko Asashi! *Holding up Applause sign*)

*******************In the Middle of Nowhere J/K**************************

Trunks returned to where Pan lay after fetching some more water. He had brought her to this forest on pure instinct. (An: Instinct my foot...) He kneeled next to her and used his hand as a cup so he could give her some water. After two handfuls, Pan let out a light sigh and suddenly opened her eyes.

"Uh...hey." Pan jumped to her feet, prepared to take to the sky, but Trunks grabbed her arm. "Oh-no. Not this time. You are not going to evade listening to me again!"

"Why should I listen to you?"

"Because you owe me that much."

"I owe you? Fine. What do you want to say?"

"Why did you tell everyone the whole story?"

"Smooth tactic." she snorted. "Answering a question with a question. I think I'll leave now."

"No you won't." He mockingly said.

"What do you mean? Who are you to tell me what I will and will not do? You have no right!" Pan hissed.

"I have a right to say what I tried to say before you chased me away!"

"I chased you away?! Oh yeah...okay. Well at least I got paid for the job!" Pan slapped the twenty-dollar bill in Trunks's face and wiped away the tears that were brewing at her lids. Trunks peeled the bill of his face, tossed it in the air, and disenegrated it with a small blast from his palm. "As if you destroying it will change the pain it's caused!"

"You and I both know that that twenty was only part of our problem. And I'm sorry that I even gave you it."

"Why? Because you couldn't buy yourself a burger when you got hungry?"

Trunks's eye began to twitch and he growled slightly. "You're not making this any easier."

Pan plopped down on a rock and crossed her arms underneath her chest. "Good." she huffed. Not being able to think of anything else that was nasty to say, Pan stared at the puddle next to her, and watched ripples form from the magnitude of the following silence. "Do you love her?" she suddenly asked.

"No."

"Sure." Pan muttered. If Trunks hadn't been a saiyan, he wouldn't have heard her.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Exactly what I said. Sure. You only make love to someone you love."

"I guess that means that I love you."

"Yeah right. You weren't in the right state of mind when we slept together. And I hope that you don't think that if you tell me that you love me, which isn't true, that'll I'll forgive you."

"And don't think that if you sit there and act like a stubborn child that I'll forgive you." Pan flinched slightly at the intensity of Trunks's statement, and he took special note.

"You have nothing to be mad about."

"Is that so?"

"It is."

"Bull."

"Excuse me?"

"It's an animal." Pan almost let a smile out, but she forced it back. "I have plenty to be angry about. For one, if you had accused me of raping you, I would have felt no more hurt than if you had said what you did say."

Pan huffed. "I don't remember what I said." she lied.

"You choose not to remember. I don't think selective amnesia is qualified as a disease. But you remember what I said right before I hurled that twenty at your face?"

“.... Yes."

"My point exactly. It takes two, love. This is not a one sided story. Unlike you, I remember what you said. You words were drilled into my mind. Yes, you said that it was probably just a cheap thrill for me. Then you told me to get out."

"............"

"Tell me Pan. Do you remember the what I said after that?" Pan shook her head no. "This time, I believe you. I said, that you didn't even think that what happened would mean anything to one of us. It may have been an accident, but not for one moment afterwards did I regret it."

Pan allowed her cheeks to flush light pink. "I'm...s...sorry. I did choose not to remember that I was a part of the reason you left. But...I felt so disgusted with myself that I didn't know what to think or say."

"It's all right. But did you regret it?"

"No." Pan honestly answered. "Not once, could I ever find a moment that I disliked the fact that I was carrying your children..."

"The reason why I didn't regret it is because I've wanted you for a long time. I didn't remember what had happened at first, but that night came back to me little by little, day by day."

"Same here...how long?"

"How long, what?"

"Have you...um wanted me?"

"Since it was legal."

"TRUNKS!"

"Hehehehe...just kidding. But I have loved you for sometime now. I even tried to tell you on your 19th birthday. Not with words, but with the gift I gave you. But apparently you never noticed."

"What are you talking about? This?" Pan asked as she held up the 'friendship' ring that was on her left hand.

"Yup. With super vision and all, I figured that you would have seen it by now. Look on the inside." Pan looked on the interior of the ring.

"I don't see anything."

"Look harder."

"Can't look any harder than I am now. I don't se-" Pan stopped short as she saw the tiniest of engravings on the interior. It read as follows.

Ashiteru Son Pan

"I can believe that it took you two years to find it." Trunks sighed.

"Dear God." Pan shook her head and brought herself back to the present. "I don't believe you."

"Let me ask you this. WHY?" he bellowed.

"First of all, that was two years ago. And if you truly loved me, you wouldn't have left."

"If you had been in my position, what would you have done?"

"Stayed and worked it out."

"You liar." he spat.

"Okay. So I am lying. But why didn't you come back?"

"I needed time to heal."

"So you slept with that Keiko girl? Is that what you call healing?"

"No. I call that a mistake that will come to pass. Both she and I know that that shouldn't have happened, but it did, and there is nothing we can do to change that. Just like no matter how much of a stubborn brat you act, it's not going to change the fact that I'm in love with you."

"Why should I believe you?" Pan didn't bother to hold back the tears now. "Do you have any idea how much pain your absence caused? You almost tore apart my family!"

"You you you! How about using the 'I' concept once in awhile? I already told you, it takes two!"

"Why didn't you stay?"

"Because my heart was broken. My soul was scarred. I thought that the only girl I loved, hated me. I never loved Marron! I never loved any of the girls I went out with! All day everyday, I was comparing them to you! So when your 19th birthday rolled around, I gave you that friendship ring, trying to tell you how I felt, but you never saw it. I thought that I had given up hope, but the feelings came flooding back."

"So, did you compare all the other girls to me when you slept with them?"

Trunks's biceps flexed as his ki steadily rose. "Do you know what I was the night we went to the club?"

"What?"

"A virgin!"

Pan nearly flushed purple. "Oh...gosh."

"Exactly."

".............I guess there is only two things left to say now."

"And what might that be?"

"One...I'm sorry. For everything. You didn't deserve to be treated the way I've treated you. Nobody deserves to be treated that way."

"I can understand how you treated me that way. I'm sorry too. I should have stayed and worked it out. It would have spared both of us a ton of grief. But after I found out that you held my virginity, and I held yours, a part of me was thrilled. In a.... sick sort of way I guess."

Pan shocked Trunks by laughing. "It's understandable. The other thing I wanted to say is that...that..."

"Just spit it out."

"Not that easy!"

"Why not? I did." Pan glared at Trunks in a playful sort of manner.

"You knew?"

"Not too hard to figure out. But I need to hear it from you."

Pan turned away for a moment and took a deep breath. She then looked into his eyes and got the seven-year burden off her chest. "I love you Trunks."

Trunks smiled as floated over to Pan, and pulled her into a hug. "I'm sorry Pan. I'll never you leave you again. I'll be torn limb from limb before I hurt you like that again."

"Why?" she asked.

"Because I love you. Always have, always will."

Pan busted into tears. "You don't no how long I've been wanting to hear that. I'll never leave you either. And I too will die before I cause you that much pain again."

Trunks stepped back and wiped away the tears on Pan's face. "Will you come home with me now? Can we just put this all behind and move on? Will you let me love you like you deserve to be loved?"

Pan smiled and laid a whisper of a kiss on his lips. "Yes, yes, and yes." Trunks took her hand and they took off into the air, hand in hand.

As they were flying, Pan thought back on everything that had happened, and a certain thing she had said to herself stuck out. Pan suddenly started to laugh, catching Trunks's attention.

"What's so funny?"

"It's nothing." Pan answered.

*Nothing but good times ahead. * Pan thought as she inwardly smiled.
