Secrets Revealed

Pan spun around in the air to look at the person who had yelled at her. "Daddy?!" She yelled in shock as her eyes meet his. He was extremely angry.
"Daddy!" She yelled again. He was striding toward her closer on the ground.

"How could you?!" Gohan yelled angrily at her. "Get down. Now!" He yelled again. His anger was rising. Vegeta watched this play out from his point in the sky. Pan reached the ground as Gohan grabbed her arm roughly. "How dare you do this!" He yelled as he shook her violently.

"Daddy I can explain," Pan spoke quietly. He looked up at Vegeta in the sky as he tossed Pan to the ground.

"Vegeta! You knew I didn't want this!" He yelled up at the older warrior. Vegeta was emotionless as he slowly floated to the ground and landed by Pan. She was lying on the ground sobbing as she watched her father in fear. She had never seen him like this.

"Why did you do it, Vegeta!" Gohan yelled at him. " Did you just want to anger me? You were given a rule to follow, so you took it upon yourself to disobey it?! Why?!" Gohan yelled. Vegeta didn't seem to be listening as he gave Pan a hand to get back on her feet.

"Father!" Pan yelled as she pushed Vegeta away. She didn't want his help. It was her fault. Gohan was shocked as he realized that she had called him father. Something that Vegeta had his children do.

"It was my fault!" Pan yelled at her father as she sniffed. She quickly wiped her tears away and prepared herself for the argument. She wanted to seem tough to Vegeta even now.

"I wanted to be trained. Goten and Trunks were always training and I was left alone. You were always working, so I had no one to be with. So I wanted to train so I could play with Trunks and Goten. They laughed at me. They laughed at me. Do know what it is like to be laughed at?" Pan spoke at her father.

"You could have come to me," Gohan said annoyed, and less angry.

"I could not come to you. You never had time for me; you don't have time for me now. Even this argument is probably taking too much time from your busy schedule!" Pan yelled as her tears began to flow again.

"That's not the point!" Gohan yelled.

"Then what is?!" Pan yelled back at him. Vegeta watched Pan and he felt sorry for her. In his eyes, she had done nothing wrong.

"I never wanted you to train. I said no. And your mother did too!" Gohan yelled at her. “We were concerned for you. You could get really hurt, or killed. Especially with Vegeta, it is too dangerous," Gohan told her.

"I would never hurt her!" Vegeta yelled angrily at Gohan. Pan watched sadly as Vegeta became involved.

"You are too unreliable, you could kill her. She is just a child," Gohan yelled.

"Trunks was a Super Saiyan as a child!" Vegeta replied calmly. He didn't really care what Gohan thought, but Pan was his student and he wanted it to remain that way.

" Trunks is YOUR child, it was your decision. Pan is MY child and I said no!" Gohan yelled.

"She is in no danger when I train her," Vegeta told him. Gohan rolled his eyes. "I am careful, I would never cause her any pain!" Vegeta continued. Gohan looked to his daughter who had her eyes fixed on Vegeta.

"It was not your decision to make!" Gohan yelled as he watched Pan. She kept her eyes on Vegeta and this only angered Gohan more.

"Why did you even make that decision, Gohan!?" Vegeta questioned him.

"If she was to become strong, she could be hurt when the monster arrives to threaten the planet, or worse, she could be killed," Gohan told him.

"You're wrong! If she is strong then she can protect herself. If she was weak then she would be killed," Vegeta told him.

"So many of us have died, because we were brought up to fight. I don't want her to die too!" Gohan yelled as he looked at Pan. Pan looked up at him as he spoke this time.

"Daddy, if I die, then I die, everyone dies eventually, but if I'm strong, then I have a better chance of living," Pan tried to reason. She walked toward him slowly, trying to calm him down.

"We're leaving. Now!" Gohan yelled as he reached for his daughter's arm as she approached him. He pulled her roughly to him as he prepared to take off. Pan pulled against him desperately. He was stronger than her and he was hurting her. She pulled and pulled but could not get away.

Gohan took off into the sky dragging his daughter behind him. Pan gave up as it was useless to fight against him. He was far stronger. She sadly watched Vegeta on the ground as he became smaller and smaller and finally disappeared in the distance. Pan turned her eyes to her father. She began to sob like a little girl.


The trip home was a very silent one. Gohan landed and Pan landed roughly beside him. Pan's face was red and splotchy from crying for so long. Gohan had listened to her the whole way home and it made him angry.

"Gohan?!" Someone called out. Videl came running from inside the house to see what was going on. "Why are you home so early?" Videl asked her husband curiously. She turned to Pan and was shocked. "What happened, honey?" She asked her daughter.

Pan looked up at her mother sadly. Her eyes hurt from crying, which upset her more as she began to cry again. "Stop it!" Gohan yelled. Pan sniffed as she tried to stop. Videl looked up at her husband somewhat afraid.

"Gohan don't," She spoke quietly.

"Don't?" Gohan started as he looked at his wife now. "If you knew what she had been doing then..." Gohan started to explain.

"What, what has she done?" Videl interrupted as she looked to Pan.

"She has been training!" Gohan yelled as he looked at Pan too. Videl gasped.

"Pan?" Videl whispered. Pan stepped towards her mother. " Pan?" Videl spoke again.

"Yes, I have," Pan spoke quietly as she began to cry again.

" Pan we told you when you were young that we didn't want you to train. We wanted you to have a better life away from fighting," Videl started calmly. Gohan listened carefully but he was still extremely angry.

"You trained as a girl," Pan spoke up. Videl looked at her annoyed.

"Yes, that's why I don't want you to. I got hurt when I fought, I could have died, and I don't want you to be in that situation. By not training, we keep you from harm," Videl spoke as she became upset herself. Gohan stepped and put an arm around her.

"I am a Saiyan, it is in my blood," Pan spoke. Gohan growled angrily.

"Shut up, that is Vegeta talking!" Gohan yelled.

"No it isn't!" Pan yelled back.

"This conversation is over! Go up to your room and stay there! You can stay there until you have decided to never train again!" Gohan yelled. Videl looked sadly up at Gohan.

"I will never!" Pan screamed.

"Then never come down!" Gohan yelled after her as she ran into the house crying.

"Gohan was that too harsh?" Videl questioned him. Gohan looked at her angrily.

"We have to get this out of her now. She knows rough, then she can take it," Gohan spoke as he walked in after Videl.

"Pan honey, I have some tea here for you, don't tell your father," Videl knocked softly on her door after a few hours.

" I don't want it!" Pan yelled angrily.

"Pan, please you have to eat," Videl tried again.

"No!" Pan yelled. Videl walked away slowly. She hated this whole situation. Perhaps Pan training wasn't as bad as she had thought. But why did Gohan feel so strongly? He has lost so many people because of fighting. Of course they have been bought back to life, but they still died.

Pan looked outside at the stars and wished that this had never happened. But she wanted to train. Downstairs Gohan was concentrating on her ki. He felt it continually rising and he became annoyed again.

Pan paced her room as she punched an invisible enemy that she imagined being her father. Her power level was increasing, but she didn't care. Pan stopped and looked out the window again. The stars were so inviting. She carefully opened her window as a cool breeze rushed past her face and made the curtains move. She closed her eyes and smelt the night air.

She stepped out and hovered by the window. She looked back at the house and the light that was on in the dining room where her parents were discussing things. Pan growled as she shot off toward her haven: Capsule Corp. She went as fast as she could as the wind messed with her hair.

Gohan felt her ki moving as he stood up abruptly from his seat at the kitchen table. Videl watched him. "What is it?" Videl asked.

"She's left," Gohan said quietly before speeding the door and taking off. He went as fast as he could so he could catch her before she made it, but one of Pan's strong points was her speed and she had a head start.

Vegeta looked to the west as he felt an approaching ki. It was a ki he knew well. Trunks was elsewhere in the house and he felt her coming too. He thought it was strange being late at night, so he decided to see what was going on.


Vegeta hovered in the air as Pan came crashing into him. "Sensei?" She asked surprised. Vegeta nodded as Pan threw herself into his arms. Vegeta was taken by surprise, but he held her close to comfort her. She sobbed quietly into his chest.

Gohan suddenly appeared and stopped just in front of them. He was appalled by the sight of Vegeta holding his daughter. A monster holding his child. "Let her go!" He yelled at Vegeta. He let her go as Pan turned to face him.

"I hate you!" Pan screamed. Gohan came quickly at her as she dodged. Gohan overpowered her as he held her firmly. "Let me go!" She screamed angrily. Her power level was increasing at a huge rate as Vegeta smirked to himself. Trunks ran out of the house below them as he watched the scene play out.

"Let go!" Pan screamed as she burst into yellow flames.
