Chapter 5: Rejection from a normal life

Pan awoke earlier than usual on this Monday morning. "6:30," she said to herself glancing at the clock and rolling over to see the first few rays of sunlight spill into her room. But she got up and took her time getting ready for school. 'What will they think of all of this? It can't be too bad; I mean they've gotten used to some of the weirdness in my family. And I'm the granddaughter of Satan, they wouldn't dare say anything mean. Would they?' She sighed and for the first time in a long time tied her bandana over her head to hide her ears, even though it was pointless to wear a bandana with hair her length. She pushed all thoughts aside and got ready for school.

She quickly finds her two friends and runs up to greet them. "Piccola! Vega! How are you?! I've missed you both," she said gathering them up into a bear hug. As she set them down they noticed the confused look on their faces. "Guys it's me…Pan." The girls' eyes got as wide as dishes.

"Pan," they both exclaimed drawing attention to the new woman in school. She grabbed them and dragged them around the corner.

"Guys not so loud ok. So what do you think," she said backing up so they could check out her new bod.

"I thought you were against implants," Piccola said glancing at her chest.

"They're not implants," Pan yelled. "For some reason while I had the measles I had some sort of huge growth spurt. And you know I'm not lying," she said tossing her long hair over her shoulder and getting closer towering over their now short bodies.

"Wow Pan, how much milk do you drink," asked Vega jokingly. But Pan didn't seem to get the joke.

"Well usually I drink about 2 gallons a day, but for some reason after my spurt it's gone up to about 3-3 ½ gallons a day." Both girls once again gave her a dumbfounded look. "Guys I have something else I need to show you. But you have to promise not to freak out! I mean you guys are my best friends in the whole world and I wanna know what you think first." The weren't sure what she was talking about but both nodded. Pan slowly removed her bandana showing two tan colored cat-like ears and let her tail come out of its hiding place in her pants.

"Are they…," started Piccola trying to get the words out of her now dry mouth.

"Real," Pan finished for her and nodded.

"Whoa, how did that happen," asked Vega poking her ears.

"Hey, watch it they are real you know. But anyway it's a hereditary thing, my grandpa had it and passed it to my dad and uncle and now me. But my grandpa and they were all born with it and had it removed when they were younger. But I just now got it, and I sort of like it and was thinking of keeping it. What do you guys think?"

Once the two girls could pry their eyes away from their new friend and cleared their heads again Piccola finally spoke. "Well Pan we're your good friends, but even we're having a hard time with it. Maybe you should keep it a secret. I mean we only have 3 weeks left of school and proms coming up in 2 weeks. I really don't think people would respond well to it, so maybe it's best just to wait until like the last day or something. Sorry Pan, but I'm just telling you what I think." Vega nodded looking at the ground.

"Well if you think so," started Pan as she tied the bandana around her head and once again hid her tail. "But promise not to tell anyone?"

"Come on Pan we're your friends," said Vega. "We wouldn't do something like that to ya."

Just around the corner from them stood a blond haired blue eyed girl snickering with a video camera in her hands. "But I would," she said running off.

Pan was trying to listen to the lecture they were getting on conjugating verbs in Spanish when she felt something hit the back of her head and looked down. 'A paper wad.' She looked around and noticed a few guys in the back staring at her in a weird way. She picked up the paper wad and opened it and felt her heart catch in her throat as she read the only word scrawled on the paper "Freak!"

She looked back at the boys again and noticed now that a few more students were staring at her like that. She turned around and tried to forget about them when she felt another one hit the back of her head. She picked this one up also and as she opened it felt like she wanted to cry. It was her earlier this morning with Vega and Piccola and her tail and ears were showing. She noticed a little date and time thing in the corner. 'Someone taped that?' She wanted to run, run away, but this was school, the last 3 weeks, she couldn't leave now or she'd more then likely fail. She looked back again and saw the back half of the class glaring at her and a few of the students were mouthing "Freak" at her. She had to get away, just for a second, so she raised her hand.

"Yes Pan," replied the teacher.

"Mrs. Moore, may I please go to the office really fast," she asked gathering her stuff.

"Yes Pan," she said turning to write a pass. Pan quickly got up and grabbed it and was almost out the door when she heard her own voice. She turned to see Mandy, a pretty blond haired blue eyed girl with a tape recorder in her hands playing back her conversation from earlier. And felt a hand on her head as another girl, one of Mandy's friends pull her bandana off her head and screamed "Freak!"

Pan turned back as the rest of the class started yelling similar things like "Monster", "Weirdo", and "Mutant." She grabbed her bandana and ran. She ran to the counselors' office and opened the door to be welcomed by another verbal attack form the office aids. "Hey it's the freak," said the taller of the two.

"Go back to your pack you animal," said the other getting up. 'How can this be happening? Why is this happening? What did I do?' She slammed the door busting one of the hinges as she ran out the door. She ran to the nearest window and flew away. 'Far away from them all. Far far away.'

"Man it's really boring around here without Pan," said Trunks as he walked through the halls towards Bra's room to get Pan's e-mail address when he felt her ki in the guest room. He opened the door slowly, "Panny?" He stopped and looked in and was shocked to say the least as Pan lay there, apparently asleep, with tear streaks all over her face and a soaked pillow. He sat on the bed next to her and placed a hand on her face. "Pan, are you ok? What happened?"

Pan stirred and looked up at him through teary-eyes. "I'm a freak. They all know now. I'm a huge freak, a mutant, an animal," she said and began to sob on Trunks shoulder.

"Pan, now where would you get that idea," he said rubbing her back. "You're a great girl, you're smart, and pretty, and athletic."

"I'm a freak," Pan said, not sadly, but like a statement. She took a deep breath and began telling him of her horrible day at school, finishing by bursting into tears once again. He just sat there and rubbed her back for a while.

"Pan I don't care what other people think," he said. "I love you with all of my heart," he said raising her face to meet his. The warmth of his lips seemed to relax her immediately. They stayed there holding each other in their warm embrace. Pan slowly pushed her tongue against the opening of his lips and was granted access to his mouth. She felt his tongue intertwine with her and felt herself slowly being lowered onto the bed. Then she felt his hands all over her body. It took her a second to recover, but soon her hands were all over his body as well. Trunks slowly moved his hand up and was just about to touch her breast when…they were interrupted when Bra came in the room.

"Pan you have…Trunks! What are you doing in here you hentai," exclaimed Bra ready to whip out a frying pan and hit him up side the head.

"It's not what you think," he said holding his hands up in defense.

"He's telling the truth," Pan said weakly.

"Panny what happened to you," she gasped and ran to her friends side.

"Long story," she said. "What were you saying when you came in?"

"Huh? Oh you have a phone call from some guy, I think his name was shanji."

"Shinji," asked Pan.

"H-Hello," said Pan tentively.

"Pan why didn't you tell me," he said actually angry at her.

"Well it just happened while I was gone. I'm sorry…I meant to tell you at lun-"

Pan's eyes just watered more. She started to cry on Trunks shoulder again.

"What was that," Trunks asked pulling her back a bit.

"That WAS my prom date," said Pan trying to stay composed long enough to talk. "But he just called me a freak and said he never wanted to see me again." She fell over crying on Trunks again. He kissed her lips softly.

"It's ok Pan, I'll be your date. He never deserved you in the first place," he said holding her out at arms length."

"You think so," she said with a faint smile, the first he'd seen all day.

"Of course," he said pulling her close for a light kiss on the lips.

"Oh my Dende! Mom was right! You two are a couple," screamed Bra. "I have to tell everyone. Pan and Trunks had totally forgotten she was in the room and they still hadn't told their families.

"Bra you can't," screeched Pan as her face did a fairly good impression of a cherry (AN: I was getting sick of tomatoes).

"I will on one condition," said Bra smirking.

"Anything," they both blurt out.

"Pan, you have to get Goten to apologize to me for our last fight," she said smirking the Vegeta smirk.

"But Bra that's impossible," yelled Trunks.

"I'll do it," said Pan almost whispering. Trunks and Bra both looked a little confused. "He owes me big for something, I think I can work it."

"Then it's agreed," said Bra walking out the door. She turned and said, "Thanks for all your help Panny. And don't worry your guys' secret is safe with me. So don't let my presence stop you," she said winking.

"S-stop us," Trunks stuttered, if you could die of embarrassment Trunks would have died 5 times over right then and there. Bra walked out the door leaving the very embarrassed and now shy couple.

Vega and Piccola both walked down the hallway to the guest room the blue haired girl had instructed them to downstairs. "I think this is it," said Piccola.

"I hope she's ok," said Vega slowly opening the door and letting out a scream. Their best friend was shirtless under a shirtless, very hot, guy with his tongue down her throat. At least it was until her friend screamed causing Pan to bolt and knock Trunks on the floor. "I think she's ok," said Vega trying not to laugh.

"What in Dende's name are you doing," Piccola screeched at her friend as she struggled to get her shirt on.

"I was spending time with my boyfriend," spat Pan. "You should really learn about a thing called knocking! It could save us all some embarrassment in the future," she said sarcastically.

"Well how was I to know you'd be going at it? Last I heard you ran out of school crying so me and Vega came to make sure you were ok."

"I think she's definitely ok," said Vega. "Man Pan you work fast." She gained a confused look from the other 3 in the room. "I mean Shinji just dumped you at lunch and about 3 hours later we find you all over someone else." Pan blushed like there was no tomorrow.

"Well shinji was just a prom date not a boyfriend! And me and Trunks have been together longer anyway," shouted Pan.

"So you cheated on shinji," gasped Vega.

"I didn't cheat on anyone! Me and Shinji were not a couple," she said feeling tired of yelling.

Picking up on this Piccolo stated, "Ok we don't need to yell we're all right here. But Pan are you ok? I mean what are you going to do? We only have 3 weeks of school left, the only way you could get out is with a doctor's pass and then you still have to be there the last week for exams."

"I don't know," said Pan sounding very exhausted. "I just wanna rest for a while, can I call you guys later?"

"Sure Pan," said Piccola backing out of the room and had to turn and come back in to drag Vega off of Trunks. "Vega say you're sorry."

"Sorry Trunks," said Vega dreamy eyed and reached out for him one last time before being dragged out of the room.

"That girl is very scary," said Trunks crawling back up on the bed with her.

"Well they're the only friends I have in school anymore. What should I do Trunks?"

Gohan walked in the door dropping his briefcase next to his chair and sitting down to read the mail. "Hey honey, how was your day," he called. (AN: Both Gohan and Videl work but Videl gets out about 3:00)

"Fine hun, but have you seen Pan," she asked walking into the room.

"No, why what happened," he turned looking concerned.

"She just never came home today, I hope something didn't happen at school," she said but almost fell over as Gohan screamed in anger. "Gohan what's the matter?" All he did was hold out the front page of the newspaper. The front page read "Satans Granddaughter is a Beast!"

"What," screamed Videl. "How could they say such a thing! When I get my hands on those reporters!"

Trunks waited in the living room flipping through the channels on the TV, but not really watching. Pan's parents had come over at about a quarter to six and stormed in the room to talk to Pan. Luckily they didn't walk in on what Pan's friends did so he was just shut out of the room. They'd been talking for hours. He was beginning to wonder if Pan had started to cry again. He got up and walked up the stairs to the room and was ready to knock on the door when it opened and the three of them walked out. "I'll be there in a sec," Pan called to her parents who went to wait at the front door. Trunks noticed the streaks on her face.

"Pan are you ok," he asked giving her a hug.

"Yeah I'm fine, we just talked about today and what I'm going to do about it."

"What are you going to do about it?"

"Well my mom decided I'd be through enough torcher the last week of school so she was going to claim I had a relapse and the mumps were back."

"I thought you had measles," he said smirking.

"Well you know what I mean," she said looking over her shoulder and noticed her parents were waiting outside. "My friends are going to bring me homework so I am all by myself during the day. With my mom and dad both working maybe you could come over and give me a little company," she said and leaned forward and draping her arms over his shoulder and gave him a deep, long, sensual kiss.

"It'd be my pleasure," he said. She gave him a quick peck before turning.

"I know it would," she said smirking. "Love you," she said before turning and walking down the stairs.

"You too," he called.

"After she disappeared he turned to walk to his room when he noticed a really bad pain in his back near his shoulder blades. He got to his room and turned in the mirror and nearly fainted as he saw two pairs of claw marks had ripped through his shirt and had been raked across his shoulder blades.

Vega and Piccola were standing outside the school talking. Pan had phoned them last night and told them about her plans. They were trying to convince her to still go to prom, she hadn't said no yet so they still had a chance.

"We have to help Pan out," said Vega.

"Exactly, well it will take a long time so we might as well put our plan into action if we want to have any chance," said Piccola.

"Yeah, plan Kitty," said Vega giggling at the nick name she had gave the operation. Piccola just sighed and headed for their first target.

What will Pan and Trunks do in their spare time? What plan are Vega and Piccola up to? Will Pan actually go to prom? Find out in the next chapter: "Prom Planning."
