Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ The Fate of our Worlds ❯ Chapter 2
[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Nick couldn't tell him she lived in the castle, but couldn't lie about where she lived. Surely, he would see her there "Uhm well she lives there as well, but her family doesn't have enough room for an extra guest"
Trunks bought the lie and the four of them headed off to the castle. The walk took a good fifteen minutes before they reached the castle. "Well here we are?" Nick said as the massive structure came into view.
Trunks looked at it, ~~It's slightly larger then Vegeta-Sei's royal Palace~~~ He thought.
"Come Trunks, follow me" Nick said. Trunks followed him and Maria to the back of the castle, but he noticed Pan going up to the front gates.
"Excuse me but why is she going through the main entrance?" Trunks asked.
Nick needed an excuse, "Uhm.. that’s because she's the daughter of the main guard and she is the best friend with the princess. She's going to play with her."
"Oh, All right" Trunks said, believing the lie. They entered the kitchen quarters of the castle, where his mother worked.
"Mama, We're back," Nick shouted. A middle aged woman of about 40 came into view.
"Nicky is that you?" She asked.
"Yes, Mama. Maria and I are home, and we brought a friend."
The lady looked at Trunks, "Well I guess we do, and your name is?"
"Trunks, Ma'am, Trunks Briefs"
She pondered for a moment. ~~Now why does that name sound so familiar~~Then it dawned on her who he was. ~~No it couldn't be. He can't be on this planet, his family are the sworn enemies of Neru Sei. If the Queen or Prince gets word of this, there’ll be hell to pay. I must not let anyone know who he is~~
"Ma'am, are you alright?" Trunks asked.
The lady looked up, "Oh Yes. I'm fine and by the way my name is Gabriella, but you can call me Gabbie"
"Are you anyway related to Bulma Briefs, the Empress of Vegeta Sei?"
"She's my mother, why?"
"Oh dear, Oh dear Kami, Oh dear" Gabriella sounded worried.
"Ma'am, is there something wrong?"
"Your Highness, This is Neru Sei"
"What?, I'm on my enemy’s planet?" Trunks was stunned.
"I'm afraid so. Look you must not tell anyone you are of Vegeta Sei Royalty. If word were to get out, you could be sentenced to death."
"Yes, Ma'am"
------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------
/VEGETA SEI /
"What do you mean he hasn't reached Kurrin Sei yet" Bulma screamed at the guard who had just informed her that Prince Trunks had not yet arrived at Kurrin Sei,
"King Krillin of Kurrin Sei, would like to speak to you. They are on the sattelite phone" The guard said. Bulma picked up the line.
"Krillin, Hello. How are you? It's been awhile"
"Yes, it has Bulma. I was actually looking forward to meeting your son, but he hasn't shown up yet. Is there something wrong?"
"Oh, No. Nothing is wrong, he should have been there. I don't understand why he is not yet there." Bulma said.
"Maybe he was in some sorta accident" Krillin suggested.
"Oh, please don't say that" Bulma was now worried. What if the ship broke down or crashed? What if the crew and Trunks were hanging in space somewhere with no way to get home? Bulma screamed for her husband. "VEGETA!!!!"
The king came into the throne room., "What is it Woman?"
"Trunks is missing." Bulma stated.
"Look, Woman I don't like being pulled out of my Training for something so stupid." Vegeta said as he turned around. He started walking away, but was stopped by Bulma.
'"HOLD IT RIGHT THERE MISTER!!!!" she stalked up to him and shouted. "Our son! The crown Prince! The Heir to YOUR throne! Has gone missing, and you.. YOU HAVE THE GULL TO SAY IT'S STUPID.???!!!"
"Look Woman. I don't like to be bothered with such trivial matters. The prince is probably resting on some planet before he moves onto Kurrin Sei. Now, if you don't mind, I would like to get back to my training" He went back to his training, leaving Bulma dumbfounded.
She turned back to the monitor, that Krillin was on. "Sorry about that Krillin,"
"That's quite alright, Bulma. Vegeta can, well be Vegeta" Krillin said.
"Thanks for understanding. I'll Try to locate Trunks" Bulma told him
"Thank you, Bulma. Please our patience is wearing thin" Krillin said as he hung up.
Bulma sighed, "Alright, Trunks where are you?" She asked.
"Mama" Bulma turned around to a nine year old version of her.
"Bra Chan, why are you up so late?" Bulma asked the young girl.
"Is it true? Is Niisan missing?" Bra asked. "I heard the guards talking, so is it?"
"Yes, Darling, but don't worry, I'll find him" Bulma told her, "Now get back to bed"
"Mama, if Niisan comes home, please tell me." Bra told her.
Bulma nodded and smiled. "Alright, I will., Now get to bed."
Bra ran back to her room.
"Guard" Bulma shouted to one of the guards.
"Yes, Your Majesty" He kneeled in front of her.
"I want every available man, you can round up and I want them to find, my son" Bulma shouted.
The guard swallowed, "Yes, Ma'am" he said, he however didn't move.
Bulma knowing that he was waiting for a dismissal, sighed, and said, "You can go"
The guard bowed to her and left.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------
/Kurrin Sei/
"Krillin, what if something terrible has happened to the Prince?" Juuhachigou wondered.
"Juu, I'm sure he's fine like King Vegeta said. He's probably just resting on some planet somewhere." Krillin suggested, but he wasn't even too sure, about that.
"Maybe the King and Queen of Vegeta Sei, have changed their mind and don't know how to tell us." He suggested.
Juuhachi however didn't agree, "No. Bulma isn't like that and Vegeta definitely isn't like that" She tried to ponder the reason, but couldn't come up with anything.
"We should tell Marron" Krillin told her. Juuhachi nodded.
"You're right. I'll go and tell her." She said as she walked to her daughter’s chambers.
/MARRON'S CHAMBERS./
Marron was busy putting the last minute touches on her attire. "Cynthia, what do you think of this tiara?" Marron asked one of her ladies in waiting what she thought of the tiara she was holding up.
Cynthia looked at it, "I think it suits the princess well you're highness"
Marron smiled, "Then, this is the one I shall wear" She said as she heard a knock on the door. "Come in" She called. A guard entered.
"Lady Marron. Her Majesty wishes to see you" The guard said.
"Alright. Tell her I'll be there shortly." She said, but instead her mother came into view.
"Mother?"
"Marron, I'm afraid I have some bad news." Juuhachi said.
Marron stared at her mother, "What is it?" Marron asked waiting for an answer as was the Guard and Cynthia. Juuhachi shot a look at both of them and they scurried out of the room.
"Mother, is he here yet?" Marron asked excitedly.
"Marron, Trunks hasn't arrived yet."
Marron looked at her mother, "What isn't he coming?"
"Yes, of course he's coming. He's just missing"
"Missing? What do you mean?" Marron asked concerned.
"Honey, The King and Queen of Vegeta Sei have said that he left days ago"
"He should have been here by now, shouldn't he?" Marron asked.
"Yes, that is why I came to tell you, but don't you worry. I'm sure he’s just taking a rest"
"You don't think he's change his mind do you?" Marron asked.
Juuhachi wasn't so sure if he did just that. Maybe he got scared and changed his mind. "I'm sure he'll be here soon."
"I hope so, mother"

/Neru Sei/
Pan entered the main hall of Neru Sei's Palace, where she greeted her father. "Hello Father" She curtsied to the Prince.
"Hello, Panny. How is my favorite Princess this evening?" Gohan asked with a radiant smile.
Pan smiled. "Daddy, I'm you're only Princess."
"Yeah, I know but you're still my favorite" Gohan said. "You and you're friends have fun?"
"Yes, we did"
"Great! You should go and get cleaned up. You're betrothed is due here at eight"
Pan groaned, "Daddy, I don't want him to come here. I don't want to meet him." Pan whined.
"Panny, just meet him. Your mother is adamant"
Pan scoffed and walked away. Gohan shook his head at his daughter’s retreating form, ~~She's just like Videl, it's almost scary. She would make a great ruler that's for sure.~~~ He thought at his daughters’ spunky personality.
Pan's Chambers.
Pan walked into her chamber and plopped herself onto her bed. "Oh, I do not want to meet that Prince." She said to nothing. "I want to get to know the lilac haired boy I met." She felt her face blush. She had developed a crush on him. "He is so cute. He has the most beautiful eyes and I sure could get lost in them." She sighed, as she drifted off to sleep.
Dream Sequence.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Pan, where are you?" she heard a voice call out to her.
"Wh, are you?" She asked. She couldn't see his face, "I can't see you." She ran towards the voice.
"Pan, I need to see talk to you. Come and see me." The voice said. Still she couldn't see who it was.
"Where are you? I can't see you" She kept telling the voice. Pan then noticed something about her. She was older, at the age of seventeen. "Why am I older?" She asked herself, as she heard the voice again.
"Pan, come to me. I need you" She finally saw someone in the distance. She tried to make out the figure, "Pan, come please. I need you" The voice kept saying. She couldn't make the figure out.
"Please tell me, who are you?"
"Come and you will see." Pan walked towards the figure, the person came into view. She saw the boy with Lilac hair.
"Trunks?" She called out his name. "Why are you here?" She then noticed she was in a dungeon-like setting. "Trunks! Why are you here?"
"Pan, I'm sorry I meant to tell you." Pan looked at him.
"Meant to tell me what?" He said, but before he got to answer she saw a guard come and take him away. "Pan!" He called out. "I love you"
"Trunks, no! Don't go!" She screamed out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End of Dream.
Pan shot up, sweat dripping from her brow. "What a dream!" She wondered why she would dream of that boy. "Why did I dream of him? It wasn't a dream, it was a nightmare. Maybe it's telling me I should never be with him.” She got up and went into her bathroom. She splashed some cold water on her face. She looked into the mirror. ~~Why did I have that dream? It was almost like I was seeing our future.
/Nick and Maria's Family's quarters./
"That was wonderful, Mrs. Santos" Trunks thanked Gabriella on her excellent cooking. "I never had food that good. The cooks at the palace don't know how to cook." Trunks explained how he never had a home-cooked meal that was made with love and care.
"As I said, that's what makes the food so much better. A mothers love" Gabriella smiled.
Trunks sighed. "What's wrong dear?” Gabriella asked when she noticed him.
"That girl I met. Pan, I believe her name was. I have to find her."
Gabriella looked at him. "You must forget about her, she is not for you."
"What do you mean? Do you know who she is?"
"Yes. I do, but she is wrong"
"Is it because she's too young?"
"No. That is farther than the reason. It is because she is the Crowned Princess of this Planet."
"What? You mean to tell me that the young girl who has caught my eye is my enemy?" Trunks was stunned.
Gabriella bowed her head, "I'm afraid so, Your highness."
/Neru Sei Palace Main hall./
A guard ran into the hall. "What is the meaning of this?." Videl yelled.
"You're majesty, we spotted a Vegeta Sei Ship in a field about ten minutes from here" The guard said.
"What? Are you sure?'" Gohan asked firmly.
"Yes, you're highness. It has the Vegeta Sei crest on the side of it."
Videl stood up, "I want everyone on high alert. Find out who was on that ship. Bring them here. Understood?" She stated firmly.
"Yes, You're majesty" The guard than left on his mission.
Videl turned towards her husband, "You think that Vegeta Sei will attack again?"
"They’d be a fool if they do. They know what happened last time" Gohan smirked.
"Gohan this is serious. What if Vegeta is attacking?" Videl was cut by him though.
"It's probably nothing. If they were gonna attack, they would have attacked already." Gohan exclaimed.
"Yeah, well maybe they're waiting until we least expect it?" Videl wondered.
"Videl, we didn't expect five minutes ago." Gohan explained.
"Yeah, but..." She started to say, but was however cut off.
"Videl, Don't! I'm sure it's nothing."
"I don't want a war. I don't want Pan in the middle of a war." Videl said
Gohan took his wife into his arms. "I know. I don't either"
/Field where spaceship landed./
"Commander, I think I may have found something." A Neru sei guard shouted, as he ran towards the man in rank.
"What is it?" The guard held up a journal.
"It’s a journal. It say T.V.B. on it."
The commander grabbed the book, "T.V.B.? Hmmm, who's initials are these?" He wondered as he rubbed his thumb under his bottom lip. "Open it" He commanded.
"Yes, sir," The guard opened the journal.
~June 7, 789
I'm in this god forsaken spaceship, heading to a god forsaken planet, to meet a god forsaken girl that I must marry in a god forsaken marriage. God please forsake me. I’ve been in this ship for two days now. I'm hoping that something will happen, anything. I don't really care.
This so blows!, I mean why couldn't Bra have been sent away? I know I know she's only nine and I must marry this chick, excuse me Princess, so that Kurrin Sei, and Vegeta Sei will come together in marriage. Please let something happen. I DO NOT WANT TO GET MARRIED!!! But you think mother or father would listen? No father is like, “I'm King Vegeta, The mighty King of Vegeta Sei....” The guard stopped reading. "He's the prince of Vegeta Sei.”
"The Prince? Alright, take the journal to Queen Videl and Prince Gohan" The commander commanded.
The guard left to give his findings to the queen.
/Luthorun Space Ship./
"You're majesty, we're gonna be landing soon." The cabinet said to the king.
"Very well, tell my son to prepare himself." The king commanded.
"Yes, Sir" The cabinet immediately had one of his men to tell the prince to prepare for landing.
/Neru Sei./
"Pan, are you ready yet?" Videl shouted to her daughter.
Pan came running down the hall to her mother. "MOM, LOOK AT MY DRESS!" She screamed to her mother to look at her dress.
Videl looked at the girl’s dress, "It's lovely dear."
Pan looked at her mother with a horrified expression. " BUT ITS YELLOW! I DON'T LIKE YELLOW!"
"Pan, now isn't the time to argue. Now go and finish. We just got word the ship from Luthorun sei has landed."
Pan scoffed at her mother, "Mother, the dress is yellow, though, Yellow!” She cried.
"Pan, you don't have time to change. The royal family of Luthorun sei is here so stop whining and come on."
Pan whined. "Fine" She turned back to her ladies in waiting so they may do her hair.
Videl left them to their job. Videl was clad in a blue chiffon dress that fell to the ground. The Train was so long that she had to have five ladies carrying it behind her. She entered the throne room where she was greeted by a mass of lords and ladies, Marquis and Marquises, Counts and Countesses, Dukes and Duchesses, and Barons and Baronesses, along with Kings and queens from planets that Neru sei was on good terms with, including King Goku and Queen Chi Chi, from Earth. Videl walked up to the queen and King also known as her in-laws, "You're majesties. It is so lovely to see you." Videl greeted curtseying to each of them
"Hello, Videl, how are we faring" Chi Chi asked as she looked around. "Where is my grand daughter?"
"I'm right here Grandmother" Pan said as she bowed to the older woman. She then saw her favorite grandfather. "Grandpa Goku!" She squealed as she ran towards him.
"Oh My!" He said as she jumped into his arms. "How's my favorite girl?"
"Fine Grandpa. I missed you." She said. She then leaned in and whispered something into his ear. "Grandpa, I don't want to ever get married, not yet at least. What I'm saying is that I'm too young to be betrothed or engaged for that matter. Please help me." Goku smiled and whispered back.
"I'll try my best." Pan smiled
"Thanks Grandpa." She said. Everyone's attention was turned to the main hall. There stood the King and Queen of Luthorun Sei, their eight year old daughter, Marta, and the fourteen year old Prince, Luthor.
They walked in single file to the throne where Videl and Gohan had taken their respective thrones.
"You're Majesty" King Luthor bowed, but was interrupted.
"You're Majesty! You're Majesty!" A guard came running into the room, in a panicked state.
Videl stood up, "What is the meaning of this?"
"We found who the ship belongs to!" The guard said holding the journal.
Videl’s eyes went wide. "Who?"
"The ship is known as the Tsuki No Hana, or the Moon Flower. It is a ship that is owned by none other than Prince Trunks of Vegeta Sei."
Gohan then shot up, "Are you sure?"
The guard nodded, and swallowed. "Yes, Sir. We found this in the rubble." He handed over the journal.
Another guard took a hold of the journal and handed the book to the Prince. Gohan read a few entries... He laughed. "Looks like he was on his way to meet his future queen. Poor kid."
Videl looked at her husband "Gohan, this is serious." She turned towards the guards, "Find the boy and bring him to me, understood?
"Yes, Your majesty" The guards left.
/Nick and Maria's families quarters./
"So, you're Parents are working at some fancy scmancy party?" Trunks asked.
"Yep and we have to stay here." Maria sighed as she rested her head in her hands.
"Trust me, you don't want to go to those things. They are boring." Trunks told them.
"Want to play a game?" Nick asked. Then he heard a knock on the door.
"Open up. Neru Sei Royal Guard"
The three looked at each other, then to the door.
Trunks bought the lie and the four of them headed off to the castle. The walk took a good fifteen minutes before they reached the castle. "Well here we are?" Nick said as the massive structure came into view.
Trunks looked at it, ~~It's slightly larger then Vegeta-Sei's royal Palace~~~ He thought.
"Come Trunks, follow me" Nick said. Trunks followed him and Maria to the back of the castle, but he noticed Pan going up to the front gates.
"Excuse me but why is she going through the main entrance?" Trunks asked.
Nick needed an excuse, "Uhm.. that’s because she's the daughter of the main guard and she is the best friend with the princess. She's going to play with her."
"Oh, All right" Trunks said, believing the lie. They entered the kitchen quarters of the castle, where his mother worked.
"Mama, We're back," Nick shouted. A middle aged woman of about 40 came into view.
"Nicky is that you?" She asked.
"Yes, Mama. Maria and I are home, and we brought a friend."
The lady looked at Trunks, "Well I guess we do, and your name is?"
"Trunks, Ma'am, Trunks Briefs"
She pondered for a moment. ~~Now why does that name sound so familiar~~Then it dawned on her who he was. ~~No it couldn't be. He can't be on this planet, his family are the sworn enemies of Neru Sei. If the Queen or Prince gets word of this, there’ll be hell to pay. I must not let anyone know who he is~~
"Ma'am, are you alright?" Trunks asked.
The lady looked up, "Oh Yes. I'm fine and by the way my name is Gabriella, but you can call me Gabbie"
"Are you anyway related to Bulma Briefs, the Empress of Vegeta Sei?"
"She's my mother, why?"
"Oh dear, Oh dear Kami, Oh dear" Gabriella sounded worried.
"Ma'am, is there something wrong?"
"Your Highness, This is Neru Sei"
"What?, I'm on my enemy’s planet?" Trunks was stunned.
"I'm afraid so. Look you must not tell anyone you are of Vegeta Sei Royalty. If word were to get out, you could be sentenced to death."
"Yes, Ma'am"
------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------
/VEGETA SEI /
"What do you mean he hasn't reached Kurrin Sei yet" Bulma screamed at the guard who had just informed her that Prince Trunks had not yet arrived at Kurrin Sei,
"King Krillin of Kurrin Sei, would like to speak to you. They are on the sattelite phone" The guard said. Bulma picked up the line.
"Krillin, Hello. How are you? It's been awhile"
"Yes, it has Bulma. I was actually looking forward to meeting your son, but he hasn't shown up yet. Is there something wrong?"
"Oh, No. Nothing is wrong, he should have been there. I don't understand why he is not yet there." Bulma said.
"Maybe he was in some sorta accident" Krillin suggested.
"Oh, please don't say that" Bulma was now worried. What if the ship broke down or crashed? What if the crew and Trunks were hanging in space somewhere with no way to get home? Bulma screamed for her husband. "VEGETA!!!!"
The king came into the throne room., "What is it Woman?"
"Trunks is missing." Bulma stated.
"Look, Woman I don't like being pulled out of my Training for something so stupid." Vegeta said as he turned around. He started walking away, but was stopped by Bulma.
'"HOLD IT RIGHT THERE MISTER!!!!" she stalked up to him and shouted. "Our son! The crown Prince! The Heir to YOUR throne! Has gone missing, and you.. YOU HAVE THE GULL TO SAY IT'S STUPID.???!!!"
"Look Woman. I don't like to be bothered with such trivial matters. The prince is probably resting on some planet before he moves onto Kurrin Sei. Now, if you don't mind, I would like to get back to my training" He went back to his training, leaving Bulma dumbfounded.
She turned back to the monitor, that Krillin was on. "Sorry about that Krillin,"
"That's quite alright, Bulma. Vegeta can, well be Vegeta" Krillin said.
"Thanks for understanding. I'll Try to locate Trunks" Bulma told him
"Thank you, Bulma. Please our patience is wearing thin" Krillin said as he hung up.
Bulma sighed, "Alright, Trunks where are you?" She asked.
"Mama" Bulma turned around to a nine year old version of her.
"Bra Chan, why are you up so late?" Bulma asked the young girl.
"Is it true? Is Niisan missing?" Bra asked. "I heard the guards talking, so is it?"
"Yes, Darling, but don't worry, I'll find him" Bulma told her, "Now get back to bed"
"Mama, if Niisan comes home, please tell me." Bra told her.
Bulma nodded and smiled. "Alright, I will., Now get to bed."
Bra ran back to her room.
"Guard" Bulma shouted to one of the guards.
"Yes, Your Majesty" He kneeled in front of her.
"I want every available man, you can round up and I want them to find, my son" Bulma shouted.
The guard swallowed, "Yes, Ma'am" he said, he however didn't move.
Bulma knowing that he was waiting for a dismissal, sighed, and said, "You can go"
The guard bowed to her and left.
------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------
/Kurrin Sei/
"Krillin, what if something terrible has happened to the Prince?" Juuhachigou wondered.
"Juu, I'm sure he's fine like King Vegeta said. He's probably just resting on some planet somewhere." Krillin suggested, but he wasn't even too sure, about that.
"Maybe the King and Queen of Vegeta Sei, have changed their mind and don't know how to tell us." He suggested.
Juuhachi however didn't agree, "No. Bulma isn't like that and Vegeta definitely isn't like that" She tried to ponder the reason, but couldn't come up with anything.
"We should tell Marron" Krillin told her. Juuhachi nodded.
"You're right. I'll go and tell her." She said as she walked to her daughter’s chambers.
/MARRON'S CHAMBERS./
Marron was busy putting the last minute touches on her attire. "Cynthia, what do you think of this tiara?" Marron asked one of her ladies in waiting what she thought of the tiara she was holding up.
Cynthia looked at it, "I think it suits the princess well you're highness"
Marron smiled, "Then, this is the one I shall wear" She said as she heard a knock on the door. "Come in" She called. A guard entered.
"Lady Marron. Her Majesty wishes to see you" The guard said.
"Alright. Tell her I'll be there shortly." She said, but instead her mother came into view.
"Mother?"
"Marron, I'm afraid I have some bad news." Juuhachi said.
Marron stared at her mother, "What is it?" Marron asked waiting for an answer as was the Guard and Cynthia. Juuhachi shot a look at both of them and they scurried out of the room.
"Mother, is he here yet?" Marron asked excitedly.
"Marron, Trunks hasn't arrived yet."
Marron looked at her mother, "What isn't he coming?"
"Yes, of course he's coming. He's just missing"
"Missing? What do you mean?" Marron asked concerned.
"Honey, The King and Queen of Vegeta Sei have said that he left days ago"
"He should have been here by now, shouldn't he?" Marron asked.
"Yes, that is why I came to tell you, but don't you worry. I'm sure he’s just taking a rest"
"You don't think he's change his mind do you?" Marron asked.
Juuhachi wasn't so sure if he did just that. Maybe he got scared and changed his mind. "I'm sure he'll be here soon."
"I hope so, mother"
------------------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------
/Neru Sei/
Pan entered the main hall of Neru Sei's Palace, where she greeted her father. "Hello Father" She curtsied to the Prince.
"Hello, Panny. How is my favorite Princess this evening?" Gohan asked with a radiant smile.
Pan smiled. "Daddy, I'm you're only Princess."
"Yeah, I know but you're still my favorite" Gohan said. "You and you're friends have fun?"
"Yes, we did"
"Great! You should go and get cleaned up. You're betrothed is due here at eight"
Pan groaned, "Daddy, I don't want him to come here. I don't want to meet him." Pan whined.
"Panny, just meet him. Your mother is adamant"
Pan scoffed and walked away. Gohan shook his head at his daughter’s retreating form, ~~She's just like Videl, it's almost scary. She would make a great ruler that's for sure.~~~ He thought at his daughters’ spunky personality.
Pan's Chambers.
Pan walked into her chamber and plopped herself onto her bed. "Oh, I do not want to meet that Prince." She said to nothing. "I want to get to know the lilac haired boy I met." She felt her face blush. She had developed a crush on him. "He is so cute. He has the most beautiful eyes and I sure could get lost in them." She sighed, as she drifted off to sleep.
Dream Sequence.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Pan, where are you?" she heard a voice call out to her.
"Wh, are you?" She asked. She couldn't see his face, "I can't see you." She ran towards the voice.
"Pan, I need to see talk to you. Come and see me." The voice said. Still she couldn't see who it was.
"Where are you? I can't see you" She kept telling the voice. Pan then noticed something about her. She was older, at the age of seventeen. "Why am I older?" She asked herself, as she heard the voice again.
"Pan, come to me. I need you" She finally saw someone in the distance. She tried to make out the figure, "Pan, come please. I need you" The voice kept saying. She couldn't make the figure out.
"Please tell me, who are you?"
"Come and you will see." Pan walked towards the figure, the person came into view. She saw the boy with Lilac hair.
"Trunks?" She called out his name. "Why are you here?" She then noticed she was in a dungeon-like setting. "Trunks! Why are you here?"
"Pan, I'm sorry I meant to tell you." Pan looked at him.
"Meant to tell me what?" He said, but before he got to answer she saw a guard come and take him away. "Pan!" He called out. "I love you"
"Trunks, no! Don't go!" She screamed out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~End of Dream.
Pan shot up, sweat dripping from her brow. "What a dream!" She wondered why she would dream of that boy. "Why did I dream of him? It wasn't a dream, it was a nightmare. Maybe it's telling me I should never be with him.” She got up and went into her bathroom. She splashed some cold water on her face. She looked into the mirror. ~~Why did I have that dream? It was almost like I was seeing our future.
/Nick and Maria's Family's quarters./
"That was wonderful, Mrs. Santos" Trunks thanked Gabriella on her excellent cooking. "I never had food that good. The cooks at the palace don't know how to cook." Trunks explained how he never had a home-cooked meal that was made with love and care.
"As I said, that's what makes the food so much better. A mothers love" Gabriella smiled.
Trunks sighed. "What's wrong dear?” Gabriella asked when she noticed him.
"That girl I met. Pan, I believe her name was. I have to find her."
Gabriella looked at him. "You must forget about her, she is not for you."
"What do you mean? Do you know who she is?"
"Yes. I do, but she is wrong"
"Is it because she's too young?"
"No. That is farther than the reason. It is because she is the Crowned Princess of this Planet."
"What? You mean to tell me that the young girl who has caught my eye is my enemy?" Trunks was stunned.
Gabriella bowed her head, "I'm afraid so, Your highness."
/Neru Sei Palace Main hall./
A guard ran into the hall. "What is the meaning of this?." Videl yelled.
"You're majesty, we spotted a Vegeta Sei Ship in a field about ten minutes from here" The guard said.
"What? Are you sure?'" Gohan asked firmly.
"Yes, you're highness. It has the Vegeta Sei crest on the side of it."
Videl stood up, "I want everyone on high alert. Find out who was on that ship. Bring them here. Understood?" She stated firmly.
"Yes, You're majesty" The guard than left on his mission.
Videl turned towards her husband, "You think that Vegeta Sei will attack again?"
"They’d be a fool if they do. They know what happened last time" Gohan smirked.
"Gohan this is serious. What if Vegeta is attacking?" Videl was cut by him though.
"It's probably nothing. If they were gonna attack, they would have attacked already." Gohan exclaimed.
"Yeah, well maybe they're waiting until we least expect it?" Videl wondered.
"Videl, we didn't expect five minutes ago." Gohan explained.
"Yeah, but..." She started to say, but was however cut off.
"Videl, Don't! I'm sure it's nothing."
"I don't want a war. I don't want Pan in the middle of a war." Videl said
Gohan took his wife into his arms. "I know. I don't either"
/Field where spaceship landed./
"Commander, I think I may have found something." A Neru sei guard shouted, as he ran towards the man in rank.
"What is it?" The guard held up a journal.
"It’s a journal. It say T.V.B. on it."
The commander grabbed the book, "T.V.B.? Hmmm, who's initials are these?" He wondered as he rubbed his thumb under his bottom lip. "Open it" He commanded.
"Yes, sir," The guard opened the journal.
~June 7, 789
I'm in this god forsaken spaceship, heading to a god forsaken planet, to meet a god forsaken girl that I must marry in a god forsaken marriage. God please forsake me. I’ve been in this ship for two days now. I'm hoping that something will happen, anything. I don't really care.
This so blows!, I mean why couldn't Bra have been sent away? I know I know she's only nine and I must marry this chick, excuse me Princess, so that Kurrin Sei, and Vegeta Sei will come together in marriage. Please let something happen. I DO NOT WANT TO GET MARRIED!!! But you think mother or father would listen? No father is like, “I'm King Vegeta, The mighty King of Vegeta Sei....” The guard stopped reading. "He's the prince of Vegeta Sei.”
"The Prince? Alright, take the journal to Queen Videl and Prince Gohan" The commander commanded.
The guard left to give his findings to the queen.
/Luthorun Space Ship./
"You're majesty, we're gonna be landing soon." The cabinet said to the king.
"Very well, tell my son to prepare himself." The king commanded.
"Yes, Sir" The cabinet immediately had one of his men to tell the prince to prepare for landing.
/Neru Sei./
"Pan, are you ready yet?" Videl shouted to her daughter.
Pan came running down the hall to her mother. "MOM, LOOK AT MY DRESS!" She screamed to her mother to look at her dress.
Videl looked at the girl’s dress, "It's lovely dear."
Pan looked at her mother with a horrified expression. " BUT ITS YELLOW! I DON'T LIKE YELLOW!"
"Pan, now isn't the time to argue. Now go and finish. We just got word the ship from Luthorun sei has landed."
Pan scoffed at her mother, "Mother, the dress is yellow, though, Yellow!” She cried.
"Pan, you don't have time to change. The royal family of Luthorun sei is here so stop whining and come on."
Pan whined. "Fine" She turned back to her ladies in waiting so they may do her hair.
Videl left them to their job. Videl was clad in a blue chiffon dress that fell to the ground. The Train was so long that she had to have five ladies carrying it behind her. She entered the throne room where she was greeted by a mass of lords and ladies, Marquis and Marquises, Counts and Countesses, Dukes and Duchesses, and Barons and Baronesses, along with Kings and queens from planets that Neru sei was on good terms with, including King Goku and Queen Chi Chi, from Earth. Videl walked up to the queen and King also known as her in-laws, "You're majesties. It is so lovely to see you." Videl greeted curtseying to each of them
"Hello, Videl, how are we faring" Chi Chi asked as she looked around. "Where is my grand daughter?"
"I'm right here Grandmother" Pan said as she bowed to the older woman. She then saw her favorite grandfather. "Grandpa Goku!" She squealed as she ran towards him.
"Oh My!" He said as she jumped into his arms. "How's my favorite girl?"
"Fine Grandpa. I missed you." She said. She then leaned in and whispered something into his ear. "Grandpa, I don't want to ever get married, not yet at least. What I'm saying is that I'm too young to be betrothed or engaged for that matter. Please help me." Goku smiled and whispered back.
"I'll try my best." Pan smiled
"Thanks Grandpa." She said. Everyone's attention was turned to the main hall. There stood the King and Queen of Luthorun Sei, their eight year old daughter, Marta, and the fourteen year old Prince, Luthor.
They walked in single file to the throne where Videl and Gohan had taken their respective thrones.
"You're Majesty" King Luthor bowed, but was interrupted.
"You're Majesty! You're Majesty!" A guard came running into the room, in a panicked state.
Videl stood up, "What is the meaning of this?"
"We found who the ship belongs to!" The guard said holding the journal.
Videl’s eyes went wide. "Who?"
"The ship is known as the Tsuki No Hana, or the Moon Flower. It is a ship that is owned by none other than Prince Trunks of Vegeta Sei."
Gohan then shot up, "Are you sure?"
The guard nodded, and swallowed. "Yes, Sir. We found this in the rubble." He handed over the journal.
Another guard took a hold of the journal and handed the book to the Prince. Gohan read a few entries... He laughed. "Looks like he was on his way to meet his future queen. Poor kid."
Videl looked at her husband "Gohan, this is serious." She turned towards the guards, "Find the boy and bring him to me, understood?
"Yes, Your majesty" The guards left.
/Nick and Maria's families quarters./
"So, you're Parents are working at some fancy scmancy party?" Trunks asked.
"Yep and we have to stay here." Maria sighed as she rested her head in her hands.
"Trust me, you don't want to go to those things. They are boring." Trunks told them.
"Want to play a game?" Nick asked. Then he heard a knock on the door.
"Open up. Neru Sei Royal Guard"
The three looked at each other, then to the door.
