Dragon Ball/Z/GT Fan Fiction ❯ Penitent ❯ Man, you ought to see her fly ( Chapter 3 )

Penitent

Man, you ought to see her fly

 

 

`My son' he whispered inside his head. Pan was pregnant. OMG he thought. I am going to be a dad. Kami now I am dead. He was not sure who would probably kill him first. Gohan, would definitely take a shot, then Goten would surely, forget about Videl and Chichi too. Pan? I am so sorry. He begged inside his mind, I am so sorry I hurt you like I did.

 

Trunks repeated his apology a thousand times, in his head, but it would not make it right. He should have talked to Gohan months ago, and now for sure Gohan would know the truth. No wonder why Panny never came back, he doubted if she ever would have.

 

“Trunks are listening to me?” came his mother's voice

 

He looked up to see that Vegeta and Bulma were staring at him with concerned features.

 

“I don't think so,” he said

 

“Do you want to start by telling us the truth?” she asked of him

 

“Yeah, I could, but I don't want you to hate me” he hung his head back down in shame

 

“Boy, there is no shame, we are your parents' Vegeta got up and paced the kitchen, his own demons running inside. Trunks did not have to be ashamed; he was only acting out his nature. Damn it was hard enough.

 

“Father, I don't care what you say, even if she doesn't tell on me, I still was wrong, and now, now How am I going to face Gohan, hell anyone, how am I going to face Pan?”

 

He was angered now, Bulma watched helplessly as Vegeta prepared to blast his son with the verbal tirade that was building,

 

 

“I will tell you how, like a fucking Prince of Vegeta-sei. Your heir, my heir is growing inside that girl, and you will not turn your back out of this human shit called shame! IT is what we are, it is procreation, and it is what makes us immortal. I do not give a rat's ass how much you are afraid of Gohan or what his reactions will be, it does not matter, and the only thing that matters is making it right to Pan. You will do what is right by her, like you should have done. The past cannot be changed; your other half learned that. Today, you will do it today”

 

 

“But Vegeta why don't we wait until tomorrow, let them have chance with their daughter, Gohan and Videl might not be receptible to it” Bulma cautioned

 

 

“Women, if she is a s far along as I sense then I would not be surprised if they don't come here first, wanting his head!” he reared

 

“I'll go tonight,” Trunks said softly

 

“Then we will go with you” Bulma offered.

 

“I need to talk to her alone first mother,” he said

 

`Go then, go talk to her, we will be right behind you,” She said

 

Trunks flew out of the house and headed for Pans window, something he had done a thousand times in the past, it was on one of those occasions when he first fell in love with her.

 

~~~Flashback~~~

HE really just wanted to talk to her, and it had been very late. Instead of calling and waking the whole Son house, he flew and went to her window. Inside she slept. He had done it time and time again, but this time he felt more then a friendly love for the girl, he didn't see it coming, he was just needing her to talk to him, and it all made sense. He went to her when he needed her, to talk, to comfort, and to laugh. She had always made him feel better. How could he have been so blind to it? Instead of knocking on the window, he just stayed put and stared at her, imagining how he could tell her, how to make her love him as much as he loved her. He then fantasized how it would be to feel her all over him. That thought made him yearn harder and left her window. The frustrated building of desire was powerful and he had to relieve himself of that before he broke through that window.

He had known then how powerful his urges had been. IT had never engaged him like it did at that moment. He had never felt that way, so strongly about it that he almost could not control it.

~~~End flashback~~~

 

 

That urge is what caused his Panny to fly from him. HE could not control it that night; he was actually amused by her fight. That only drove the need stronger. HE had to explain that to her, he had no other option.

 

Before he ended his flight he remembered the words his father had told him, `and your mother loved me'. This was the mystery solved between his own conception. He knew it was. Try as he might, he was just like his own father, no amount of trying to act indifferently , no prepping by his mother changed the fact that he gave into his Natural Saiyan nature and took what he wanted. `But she loves me too” Vegeta saw that much. Could she still?

 

 

Trunks was hovering at the window. He glanced in and saw that she was still sleeping. This time however, he did not want to watch her he had to see her, had to make her forgive him. So he knocked on the glass.

 

She stirred but did not wake up.

 

He knocked louder, and this time she woke.

 

She rubbed her eyes and tried to acclimated herself to where she was. She looked around the room confused and then turned on her lamp.

 

 

The room was illuminated and she sat there looking out her window and staring in to his eyes.

 

 

She turned away from his face, which was barely visible from the contrast of the darkness outside and the light form, her lamp.

 

 

How long had she dreamed that he would jus show up and find her? She had dreamed so many times, but knew he could not find her, she sometimes doubted that he wanted to, but she would not know since the Ki bracelet did not allow her to be found.

 

 

She looked up again, and saw his intense stare. She wanted to get angry, but found she could not stand that emotion anymore. She thought she would be scared, they had told her that coming face to face with your attacker would do that, but really, she never fell into that category.

 

Kami, what to do? Well would he stand there all night she wondered? No probably not, he might decide to blast in, or her father would come out and then, well she did not want to think of that, not today.

 

 

Carefully she swung her legs of her bed, and softly padded over to her window. She undid the latch and opens it wide. She stepped back and sat down on her bed, not really meeting his stare, not ready to deal wither confusion over the matter.

 

 

His angel. So beautiful he mused. He panicked slightly when she got out of bed. Her once flat tight tummy had a distinct bulge to it. It was all he could pray that his heart would not beat out of his chest. The need to swept her up and hold onto her was very strong.

 

There was no doubt that anyone who saw her could tell that she was pregnant, he thought how cute she looked waddling slightly over to him.

 

 

He filtrated inside and looked around the room. Gohan had done a great job of redoing it. However, he felt like a giant inside of it. All her childhood things were replaced and he got sick thinking hat he should have not taken from her her innocence.

 

 

He went to the foot of her bed, not wanting to sit next to her but at her feet. It seemed he was willing to humble himself to her and beg if need be. He was prepared to lose all his pride to have her back, even if that meant only as a friend.

 

 

“Pan are you ok?” was his first question

 

She nodded, not trusting her voice.

 

 

“Pan I have been saying it a thousand time in my head, but I want you to know that I am sorry”

 

 

Oh God, could she accept that? NO, she needed to know what he was sorry about, he would have to do a hell of a lot more to make up for all that had transpired.

 

 

“I am sorry I hurt you, that night”

 

 

Good she thought, at least he acknowledged that, but still she said nothing.

 

 

This was not going well he surmised, but al least she was letting him talk.

 

 

“I am sorry that I made you run away, I woke up and you were gone and I felt terrible”

 

“Rally why is that?” she bit out her hurt reliving that night evident

 

“Because I realized that I had hurt you chased you away.”

 

“Why did you, I loved you Trunks!”

 

Shit, he knew that, she loved me, loved… why how that hurts; he should have done the right thing…

 

“I love you Pan!”

 

 

“You do? You have a funny way of showing me. No I take that back, you did fine up until you forgot to hear me, You just took what you wanted and is that how you show someone you love them???”

 

 

“NO!”

 

 

“What do you mean no! You hurt me, Trunks, There was no way I could fight with you, and I have never seen you so so, so bad!”

 

He laughed inside, bad? “Was I bad?”

 

She giggled. God she hated him and yet loved him more, “No you weren't bad, just evil,” she said

 

 

 

Evil, that word hurt worse. But she laughed for him. The joke was about his lovemaking, well he knew he was not bad at it, but he had been bad to her.

 

 

“Panny, can you forgive me?” he asked

 

 

“I don't really know, I wanted you to make it right at the time, but I had to leave, you were killing me inside. Everything was hurting too much, I don't know when or if I can forgive you”

 

 

“But you are still talking to me?” he asked

 

“I have too, you would have sat outside until I did, and then my dad would have to beat you”

 

“He still might”

 

“Yeah, maybe he will, he will probably kill you”

 

She enjoyed his moment of paling features.

“Pan, the baby?”

She froze at his words. This was her baby, not his; this was one thing that angered her the most.

 

“What about it?” she bit his head off

 

“Pan, I'm the father,” he stated

 

“Your arrogant bastard!” she yelled

 

“I am not questioning you, I am just telling you I know I see, I you can't “

 

`I can't what? You idiot you know that you are, but HE IS MINE!” she finished off for him

 

“NO Pan, he is ours”

 

She seethed anger, how dare he claim their child like this, she had not allowed him to she had not forgiven him.

 

“He is mine, Trunks! GO to Hell!” she slammed out of her room in need to get away from him

He could hear her slam the bathroom door, and he was a little stunned by her vehemence.

 

 

Someone in the threshold broke his thoughts.

 

 

His eyes were black like midnight. His usual loving and soft features were hard like a rock. HE rivaled Vegeta at that moment. Oh no, Trunks wondered I have really messed up.

 

“Trunks your parents are here, would you come down form my daughter's room now?” Gohan spit out and left Trunks to follow.

 

 

The scene was like one of a nightmare. He was left to face the wrath of all the parents, while Pan was safely tucked upstairs.

 

 

He wished he had more time with her, because he had to make her come back to him, make her really understand, he only hoped that he lived long enough to do so.

 

 

Trunks sat down near his mother and waited for what would happen.

 

 

“Trunks, I assuming since you are here that you know more then you have ever told me?” questioned Gohan

 

 

Trunks nodded his head, his father snorted

 

 

True, Vegeta had to face Mr. Briefs, a puny human, he was more afraid of Onna then that man, and her mother gave him the creeps. However, Trunks had to face another problem, the wrath of a very powerful Saiyan, with a daughter who was not nearly as old as Bulma had been but just barely an adult. This was much worse

 

 

“Trunks why didn't you tell us then?” the hurt very evident in his voce, but it was laced with just a bare minimum of containment.

 

 

Gohan was soft speaking that was dangerous.

 

 

“I don't know, I didn't know how to tell you, I thought I could bring her back beforehand and talk to her”

 

 

`Trunks it has been 6 months, you knew she was hiding her Ki why did you not tell us!” screamed Videl

 

 

Oh man, he thought, she was angrier then Gohan.

While the conversation below began to rise and Trunks was left to answer questions, Pan had snuck to the head of the stairs to hear. Though he never confessed what really happened, he did promise to make up for everything and support Pan and the Baby. That just made her sick.

 

 

During al the conversations downstairs about her, she failed to notice someone who had snuck up form behind her. He must have flown into her window, because he grabbed her from behind and hugged her for all she was worth.

 

 

She whispered loudly, “Stop it Goten!”

 

 

She quickly shushed him and pointed downstairs. She wanted to hear the conversation.

 

“I dint know Gohan, she never told me” came from Trunks

 

 

“But that is why she ran away?” Gohan asked

 

“I don't know,” said Trunks

 

Pan was nervous, should he just confess? She was scared for herself and him.

 

 

That was when Goten noticed Pan, Had she gotten fat? He questioned inside.

 

 

“Honestly, Gohan I will take care of Pan, I love her and I love my baby!” Implored the young Man

 

 

Goten heard it, It had only took a moment for him to comprehend- Pan had left because of Trunks- She's pregnant- not fat! He whispered in her ear,

 

 

“Pan your pregnant?”

 

“Yes uncle” over her shoulder.

 

“Trunks?” he questioned

 

This she nodded her head, but shushed him again, “I want to hear.”

 

Goten might be naive at times, but her really was not the idiot. SO he pressed Pan to answer a another question,

“That night you left, that was when it happened?”

 

Again she nodded her head yes

 

“Pan you left because you could tell right?” his desperate voice alerted Pan's warning system- Goten was having a hard time with this.

 

“No Goten, I did not leave because I knew, I didn't know for a month or so after.”

 

“Then why did you leave?”

 

She did not know how to tell him, but her face spoke volumes to him.

 

Goten could always see through her little lies, and tales. She left because Trunks had hurt her that night, no other reason would make Pan run, he knew how much she loved Trunks, she always had…

 

 

No one expected to see a golden light penetrate the downstairs.

 

He was ablaze, never before feeling the anger at that moment.

 

Trunks looked up and recognized the accusation in his best friend's eyes.

 

Chichi called out his name, “Goten, Goten, Goten” to no avail.

 

Trunks stood to face a new enemy, one he deserved but it killed him the same, and Goten hated him now.

 

No one said a thing, and Goten was trying to calm down but locking at Trunks made it too difficult. HE had seen too much Pain in the look from Pan.

 

Gohan stepped up to stop Goten, not sure how much the young man really knew of the situation.

 

Then the ashamed look from Trunks, made him stop. This was something Trunks expected, so there was more to this then he knew…

 

Vegeta was wary of Goten's rising anger, it was permeating the area, and Bulma and Videl were pushed back from the force.

 

In a flash, Trunks was pushed trough the wall as Goten attacked with his full body.

 

Vegeta wondered if Trunks would fight Goten, he would not interfere unless Trunks was close to death, his death would not solve anything. However, Goten had a right to extract the revenge.

 

Trunks was not scared of Goten, only deeply sorry that he had made everyone hurt this way. HE did not blame Goten for killing him, but he would not allow him to, not if he was to make it up.

 

Trunks only blocked as Goten took out his ravaged emotions on him.

 

`I'm sorry; Goten I did not mean to hurt her”

 

“How could you Trunks she was a baby!”

“I know, I love her you know that,”

 

“I hate you Trunks!”

 

“Goten, you don't!”

 

“She hates you too!”

 

“She does not!” he screamed back

 

No one did much but watch the fight continue on the front Lawn. Pan had rushed downstairs and was caught by Vegeta as she went to rush outside to stop them perhaps.

 

She cried softly as she watched the best friends fight and argue, and once again felt guilty for all that had happened.

 

“Goten!” she screamed

 

He did not look at her

 

“Please I don't think he meant to “

 

Goten refused to listen and hit Trunks again, getting hard hit into his face.

 

“Pan, what did he not mean to do?” asked Gohan

 

Forlornly, she hung her head, he did not mean to force me, she cried even harder. Vegeta pulled her close to him.

 

 

Gohan powered up and blasted pass them all to take Trunks out

 

“Chichi screamed again, and yelled, “Gohan no!”

 

However, he paid no heed.

 

Goten was now too stunned as he watched his brother take over beating Trunks.

 

At first, he was glad that finally Trunks would get what he deserved.

 

Then he heard Pans crying. He thought better now. This was hurting her still.

 

Gohan of course had better control over his emotions but had succeeded in knocking Trunks unconscious.

 

Without a glance to the Prince, he took Pan in his arms and went back through the whole that Trunks body had made.

 

 

He turned over his shoulder and told Vegeta on thing,

“If I ever see him again Vegeta I will kill him”

 

 

Vegeta said nothing but went to Trunks and flew him home to take care of him

 

 

Bulma was crying with Videl and Chichi. In addition, the harsh words came out again,

 

“Just leave Bulma, and don't come here anymore” Gohan turned and brought his daughter back to her room

 

 

Videl eyed Gohan carefully, and wondered if their lives would ever get right again. Poor Panny, she thought, and but also she felt horrible, Trunks, he loved Pan she knew it, this was not right,

 

 

Instead of going to Gohan, she breathed deep and went to where Goten was still standing.

 

 

He had since powered down, and stood looking toward where Vegeta had flown too. Bulma was getting in other air car and leaving for home.

 

 

She put an arm around Goten and the boy began cry. Videl cradled his head and she soothingly talked to him.

 

 

“Goten, do you really hate Trunks?” she asked

 

His response was to cry harder.

`Goten, you have to help me, you have to help me get Gohan to accept Trunk back, I know you don't hate him and Pan doesn't either. I know you were mad, but Gohan Gohan will kill him”

 

 

He nodded; he knew that Gohan would not go back on his word. He kicked himself for reacting and causing this to get out of hand, but at least the truth was known. Nevertheless, deep down it was killing him.

 

 

`I am sorry `Del, I should have thought, but it made me so angry”

 

 

“I know baby, don't worry just help me get Gohan right again, and we just all have to heal, hmm Ok?” she asked

 

“Ok”

 

 

“Good then you can start by fixing this wall Goten!” yelled Chichi.

 

Videl had to suppress a smile

 

“Don't you worry Videl, I will help with Gohan, and you cannot keep that boy away from her now”

 

 

Videl questioned Chichi remark with a raided eyebrow

 

 

“There are a few things about being with a Siayan that takes understanding” she reasoned the woman

 

 

“Chichi, I live with one you know?”

 

 

“Gohan, just has not shown you all of his sides yet, he is too much like his father in some ways, and that is what I am hoping to get through to him”

 

 

“You think?”

 

`Did I ever tell you about how Geta and Bulma got together?”

 

Videl shook her head no; she had heard rumors and talks but not the whole story.

 

 

“Well you have to hear, and then there was that time before Cell, you know Goku was a Super Siayan for weeks, that was when I conceived Goten!”

 

 

Therefore, the two women stayed up cleaning the house and talked about the past and the things that occur when a Siayan acts like a Saiyan.

 

Time, it needs time
To win back your love again
I will be there, I will be there
Love, only love
Can bring back your love someday
I will be there, I will be there
