Last Time:

Looking up for the first time after she had fallen, she noticed Trunks standing before her. When had he gotten so fast? Wait, did he just say he was sorry? He has to be on something, if he was apologizing to her. Startled, she become aware of that he wasn't wearing what he was wearing a few minutes ago. And he had a sword attached to his back.

"Trunks? How did you change so fast?"

"Do I know you?"

"What? Have you gone insane?"

"I don't think so."

"What's wrong with you? Forgetting your best friend?"

"We're friends?"

"Did you hit your head back there?"

"Panny who are you talking to?"

"Trunks, I'm just talking…THERE'S TWO OF YOU?"

--Chapter three-

Another Lavender Hair Monster

Her gaze kept shifting to the Trunks in front of her to the one behind her. Something was definitely wrong here or her mind had finally lost it. The one in front of her was dressed so differently then from the one behind her. His lavender hair was tied behind his head, a sword latched on to his back, and his clothes, she couldn't even explain anything about his clothes. She had never seen Trunks dress in anything like it.

Was this the work of a new enemy that had come to attack the Z warriors? No, she didn't think an enemy that had come to `kill them' would have apologized to her. Something about the weird dressed Trunks made her think of the stories that the Z warriors had told the soon to be Z warriors. Wait, the battle with Cell. Didn't Trunks go back in time and tell the Z warriors about the up coming battle?

"Oh my god. Your Mirai Trunks!"

"Pan? Who's Mirai Trunks?"

"Don't tell me you forgot! Remember the stories?"

"I'm sorry to interrupt but I have seem to have lost my younger mother could you tell me where she went?"

"Bulma? I haven't seen her, so why are you here?"

No reply. His eyes flash with pain, angry, so many emotions that it made her head swim with confusion. One little question and it was like he was being torture. She felt guilty conflicting him in such a way. He looked so miserable; her heart was leaping for her to comfort him like she would do with any of her friends. But why would asking why he was here hurt him in such a way?

Glancing down at his hands, she became aware he was clenching them. Was he angry that she had asked such a question to him? Maybe it was rude of her but if she would have know it would have caused him pain like this she wouldn't have asked it. Maybe something had happen to him or in his time. Had he not defeated the Cell in his time or was there another enemy? Not thinking, she rushed to his side and fiercely hugged him.

Sure it was a little out of her character to hug him but seeing someone who looked like her best friend in such a state made her want to comfort him. His arms lingered over her back for a few seconds before welcoming her embrace. From her point of view against his chest, she could see the other Trunks gaping at her. Was it so wrong to hug a stranger who seemed to be in so much pain? Sure, she didn't know him but she had seen many people comfort others they didn't know.

Plus he was Mirai Trunks, part of the Z warrior family, even if she had never met him. Releasing him, she took a couple of steps back. It was funny seeing a light pinkish blush cover his face. She smiled brightly for it was rare seeing Trunks blush, probably from his mature acting skills. It took all her might to hold back a snicker and roll of her eyes at Trunks being mature and having acting skills. Glancing back at the Trunks from her time, she raised her brow at his change in power. Was he angry that she had given Mirai Trunks a hug?

"What the hell is wrong?"

"Why did you hug him?"

"I made him upset. You know, c-o-m-f-o-r-t-i-n-g?

"Panny, you don't even know if that's Mirai Trunks standing in this living room."

"Watch it with the name, Boxer Boy. If Bulma let him in the fucking house then it must be him!"

"How the hell are we to know he has even met my mother?"

"Oh Dende. Think for a minute!"

"Listen here, you don't just go hugging people you upset. For all we know he is here to kill us or something."

"IF HE WANTED TO KILL US IN THE FIRST PLACE HE WOULD HAVE DONE IT ALREADY!"

"HOW DO YOU KNOW?"

"BECAUSE WHAT ENEMY WALTZES INTO THEIR ENEMY'S HOME AND RINGS THE GOD DAMN DOORBELL?"

"WHEN DID HE RING THE DOORBELL? I DON'T KNOW ASK THE ENEMY WHY HE WOULD DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT."

"GOOD DENDE! DO YOU EVEN HEAR YOURSELF?"

"AND THIS IS COMING FROM A GIRL WHO HUGS STRANGES!"

"IF THIS IS ALL ABOUT A DAMN HUG THEN YOU HAVE PROBLEMS!"

"WHAT?"

"PAN AND TRUNKS! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TWO AGRUING ABOUT THAT AS TO BE IN FRONT OF OUR GUESS!"

Grinning nervously, she turned to Bulma who was now standing in the living room. Her hands were clenched on her hips, looking like she was ready to kill both of them. It was never a good thing to make Bulma upset. We're talking about Bulma Briefs the woman who was `married' to the Saiyan Prince, Vegeta. If Vegeta didn't have the guts to `upset' Bulma than most definitely Trunks and her didn't stand a chance. This was absolutely not her day. One she got her ass kicked. Two she was wearing a yellow cat outfit. And last but not least she managed to upset Bulma.

Behind Bulma was a scowling Saiyan Prince who looked like he had been interrupted from his' training'. Well now she could add other thing to the list of her `bad' day. Had to deal with a `very upset' Saiyan Prince who was missing his quality `training' time. But if Vegeta was here then that must mean, the other Trunks was for sure the Famous Mirai Trunks. Glaring at the Trunks for her time for doubt her, she glanced back at Mirai Trunks.

He seemed to be lost in a deep thought. She could tell me the clouded look his eyes were taking. And also by the way he was staring, like he was looking beyond them and the living room walls. The room was in a complete awkward silence that made her uncomfortable. She wasn't going to be the one to `break the silence', knowing once she open her mouth all chaos was going to break loose. Nor did the Trunks from her timeline look like he was going to `break the silence' either.

"What the hell, woman! I don't have time for this!"

"Don't talk to me like that, Vegeta. It's not like a few minutes is going to change your power from not training."

"And how the hell do you know that?"

"BECAUSE!"

"What's the damn boy doing here?"

"I don't know! He might have wanted to talk to you!"

All Bulma received was a snort and an irritated glare. Yep, it was just another day in the Briefs home. How Bulma could stand such a guy like Vegeta was beyond her. Maybe she just like fighting with him and that attracts. Hey she `went out' with Yamcha didn't she? From what she heard, it sounded like those two use to fight all the time. It was a good thing that nobody noticed she was wearing the yellow cat outfit. It would have probably made things must worst.

What else could go wrong today? Had she done something to Dende that must have pasted her mind? Oh no, her day just got worst. Vegeta was giving a weird look like she had grown another body part. He had spotted her attire. Never was he going to let her down about `the damn yellow human clothes'. She could just tell by the way he was smirking, like he was taking a picture of her with his mind. Yep, there was going to be hell to pay.

"What the hell are you wearing?"

"A yellow cat outfit."

"And why in all of hells are you wearing it?"

"I borrowed clothes from Bra."

"VEGETA! You leave the girl's clothes out of this!"

"What the fuck! Take a look at what the hell she is wearing."

"I see it! At least she doesn't wear spandex all fucking day!"

"What's that supposed to mean, woman?"

"What have I told you about calling me woman?"

"I can call you other names if you like!"

"You wouldn't dare."

"What do you know, woman?"

"Just take a guess at where you will not be sleeping and where you won't be training."

"WHAT?"

AN: (Sighs) My sister had her birthday party yesterday, -_-. I can't get all the screaming out of my head. I swear if I turn a corner in the house, they're all going to pop out and bug me again. It's another day but I don't think I'll ever be the same again. Sorry for the author's ranting! Had to get it off my chest. Well here's another chapter! Enjoy! ^_^

Review Responses:

Tokyobabe2040, Gothic/punk Panny, Chibbi Usago, and Chibi playing with fire: Thank you all for reading and reviewing. As for the cliffhangers, I guess it comes naturally to all of those who write. I know you all know what I'm talking about. Thanks again for the positive feedback. Makes me feel I do a pretty okay job at writing. Also with another thanks to taking your time and reading my story! I guess I like the word thanks, great I have gone insane! ^_^

Et: If you would have actually read the story you would have realized Pan doesn't have any feels, beside being friends, for the Trunks in her timeline. That is one reason I placed it in the summary. I don't write to please everyone, I write because I like and want too. So basically I really don't care if I loose readers over something so simple and stupid. I thank you for the review but I don't think you had to go as far as calling me a Jackass. I'm not going to get mad, if that was your plan in calling me that. It's your opinion and really I don't care what you think. Thanks again for `reading and reviewing' my story.
