Author's Note:
::Hisaki:: *Pops her head in from around a corner, looking curiously to the left, then to the right, smiling brightly all of the sudden at all her readers as she then shyly steps out, wearing a blue t-shirt, silver trimming going around the collar of the shirt and the sleeves. A black backpack is worn on her back, her pants being a pair of dark, indigo blue baggy jeans, a black belt with a big silver and blue jewel for the buckle, long silver chain hanging attached to the pocket and laying there at her hips. She smiles more, shuffling her feet a little, wearing black socks and dark blue boots, pushing her golden-red hair behind her ear, a black bandana worn on her head. Timidly she waves, adjusting her glasses and pushing it up onto her nose more with her index finger*

Hi guys!! Heehee...Like my outfit? It's my own little version of an "inversed colors" Pan-chan!! Plus, it goes with me, seeing as to how my hair IS red...well, would match the color of Pan's orange bandana anyway...o.o;
I'm soooo sorry I haven't updated in months!!! u_u I left you guys down...I feel just awful about it. I've had a lot of stuff going on for me in my life, and I've been just so tired lately. I got a job now, along with going to a new school, and being a Junior in High School, I have a lot of work ahead of me...(SATs and all that crap, you know how it is...)
But, today I didn't have any work, nor do I have it for tomorrow either, so hopefully I'll be able to get in some really good writing!! Yay!!!

My mind drew a total blank whenever I tried finishing up this story. I'm really sad too, because this has been my most successful story ever, and now it's all come to an end...*sniffles* I'm sure I would've been able to get a lot more fans and reviews for it too, but since I'm stupid and don't know how the hell to continue updating stories (Which now I am starting to type a LOT more often, so don't hold this against me and not go and read any of my other stories because of it!!!), I haven't even reached my 100 reviews mark yet. Oh well. Maybe I'll get a lot of reviews and have a really big and successful story next time...

I remember getting a few questions in an e-mail about how I write my stories. Somebody pointed out to me that I am constantly using Gokou in my stories, and that he had rode off with the Eternal Dragons or whatever it was at the end of DragonballGT, so why am I even bothering to put him in my stories?
Simply put...
I don't like the way DragonballZ and GT portrayed Gokou constantly running off and abandoning his family for training and training others. I mean, Gokou is one of the most pure-hearted characters in the whole story, and they just make him as this good-for-nothing father who seems to care more about himself then his own flesh and blood. I mean, come on...VEGETA seems to be a better family rolemodel than Gokou-san, and I think that's just so incredibly...dumb. Stay in one place Gokou!!! You're family needs you!!
And so with that said, I put him in my stories because I like to think that he returned to his family after GT. He doesn't strike me as the type who would constantly abandon his family, regardless of what DragonballZ and GT made him do, and HALF those times wasn't his fault...I mean, he was killed for Kami sakes...HOW CAN HE HELP THAT?!? O_o;;

Well ANYWHO...

I've gone over the ending of this story hundreds of times, and I think I finally know how to end it, so please review and tell me what you think!!! I'm warning you right now, this story is very lovey-dovey, and extremely "Oh my dear Kami it makes my teeth rot" sweet!!! ^_^ I thought that it'd be perfect for this final chapter...you'll see what I did when you read. I hope that you accept my apologies and everything, and still love me despite my undisciplined writing ways and not updating as often as I should've...

I love you guys!! I just hope you can still same the same for me now, too!

On with the story!!!

*~*~*

They had all gone out to dinner that very night that Pan had awakened from her long slumber in the regeneration tank - the whole Son Family, the Briefs, and all of their friends. It was a big celebration, and they had gone out to one of the most fanciest and expensive places of all time called "Divine". The place itself was absolutely gigantic, and took up about the size of what a large shopping mall would. It was like ballroom right out of a fairytale, a huge crystal chandelier. Everyone was dressed to kill - and this time, not literally. The men were all wearing their finest tuxedos, the ladies dressed in the most beautiful gowns ever seen.
Pan herself was wearing a silky purple gown, the dress sleeves hanging over her shoulders delicately, hanging low and showing off a descent amount of cleavage, tightening around the waist, then frilling out into an elegent gown going all the way down to the ground, covering her feet. Her hair was tied up in a bunch of curls, some falling loosely around her face, wearing white gold jewelry with diamonds trimming the beautiful treasures that hung from her ears, neck, and wrists.

They all sat at a huge banquet table, tons of food in front of them, easily doubling the amount that was being served at Pan's surprise Birthday party. The Saiyans were digging in right away, everyone else just eating their normal proportions (If not just a tad bit more), everyone chatting happily.
The eating habits of the Saiya-Jins made the restaurant management glad that they had a whole dining hall to themselves in the West Wing area of the restaurant. They were afraid that if they were seen to the public, they'd scare off other customers...

After a little while when everybody was occupied and scattered out across the hall, soft music being heard through the atmosphere, Trunks stepped over to Pan and pulled her aside.
"Pan, how about some private time to ourselves, hmm?" Trunks asked her, offering his arm and showing off one of his beautiful smiles.
The dark-haired beauty answered him by offering her arm and locking it around his, beaming brightly as the couple walked out of the dining hall and into the large hallway, which led through a corridor of other dining halls that were being occupied by other parties, then out into the open, which was a huge balcony and stairs that connected from both sides of it, leading out into the main room, where it was crowded by many customers, all dressed in their best.

"Wow, this place is so huge..." Pan stated in awe, gazing around with her sparkling auburn eyes. Trunks couldn't help but smile more; his angel had to be the most beautiful woman in the whole world - scratch that, hell, he'd traveled around the whole damn thing, so he could say this as a fact - the UNIVERSE.
"I have a little surprise for you..."
"Oh?"
"Mmhmm...follow me..." Trunks said, leading Pan over to another large hallway that leaded away from the main room. They suddenly made another sharp right through a smaller corridor, dimly lit, until finally they reached a large balcony.

Down below, Pan saw what had to be the biggest and most beautiful garden she had ever seen before.

All around, there were aisles among aisles of different varieties of flowers. Scattered about the vast garden was the most magnificant and elegant fountains that Pat had ever seen before in her entire life.
"Oh Trunks..." She couldn't say anything. She was speechless. "It's so beautiful...too bad it's so dark, I'd love to go through a walk in it..."
"Say no more," smiled Trunks, suddenly raising his finger and pointing over to the sunset.
Just as Trunks drew Pan's attention to the darkening sky, the sun was just spreading it's last rays of light over the land. Trunks mouthed to himself a countdown...

"5...4...3...2...1..."
Of course, even though he wasn't SPEAKING the numbers out loud, Pan could hear his thoughts.
"Trunks? Why are you count..."
Suddenly, just as the sky faded into darkness, a beautiful cresent moon shone through an overhead cloud, the dark sky turning into a beautiful dark, cerulean blue, shining stars twinkling their way into the skies. Just as Pan was admiring the natural beauty above, Trunks then clapped his hands, and the fountains turned on, shooting the clear, sparkling water up into the sky as lights turned on that trimmed around them and their statues, making the water spray turn into rainbows. The winding paths that made their way through the garden were suddenly lit up by different colored lights, and among every bush and group of flowers was a huge light that lit up, illuminating the garden brilliantly, yet still keeping it's beautiful nighttime dimness all at the same time.
Trunks took Pan's hand in his, leading her down into it, as they then walked among the garden and they admired it's natural beauty together. As they got down to the end of the path, it led them to a small staircase, which led to yet another balcony with a staircase that led down to a small beach, the moonlight shining over the water, waves crashing down onto the sand, the sand itself sparkling as though it were made of tiny pieces of crystal.

Pan had lost the ability to speak by now. She was in complete awe, surrounded by what could easily be the most beautiful surroundings she had ever been in. Trunks was simply smiling the whole time - he knew he had made his sweet Pan-chan happy.
They then went for a stroll along the beach, Trunks rolling up his pants cuffs and taking off his shoes along with Pan, who hiked up her dress and taking off her high-heels to walk among the glittering sand, letting the waves wash over their bare feet, the sea breeze blowing through their hair, cooling them off, the night temperatures comfortably warm.
After about 20 minutes or so walking among the beach they made their way to the balcony that overlooked the beach and connected to the garden. On this balcony was a large patch of grass, two cherry blossom trees in full bloom which held up a swinging bench, overlooking both the garden and the beach. Trunks and Pan sat there, Pan resting in Trunks's arms, her dress still hiked up a little bit and her feet still bare, both of their pairs of shoes on the ground besides one of the trees. They were both staring up at the starlit night.

"Pan?"
"Yes?"
"I love you." Trunks tilted Pan's chin up and gazed into her eyes, which right now were dark as ebony and reflected all of the shining lights around her, both from the sky and the lights in the garden.
"And I love you too," responded Pan, smiling an angelic smile that would make anyone's heart melt. "Trunks, this has been the best night of my life. Nothing could possibly make any of this more perfect than it already is."
"Oh?" Trunks asked, a sly grin appearing across his face. "You think?"
Pan blinked, obviously a tad confused by Trunks's reaction. "Yes...can you think of anything else that would make it better?"
Again, Trunks simply showed of that gorgeous trademark smile of his.
"Actually, yes, I can..."

Suddenly, Trunks gently lifted Pan from off his lap, getting down onto one knee, holding her left hand in his, moving his hand deep into one of his jacket pocket's and pulling out a small black velvet box. He then flicked the box open with his thumb, revealing a dazzling white gold ring, decorated with sparkling diamonds, forming the pattern of a heart. Pan couldn't catch her breath.

"...It would be the perfect night, if you would do me the honor of being my wife." Trunks looked up into Pan's eyes as he felt his face grow hot, turning a crimson red, holding out the box to her and took a deep breath.
"Pan, will you marry me?"

Not another moment passed, when Pan suddenly threw her arms around Trunks's neck, kissing him passionately and crying happily, tears of joy pouring down her flushed face.
"I do!! I do!! I do!!" she cried, never being happier before then at this very moment in her whole life.
With that, Trunks smiled again, feeling his eyes grow watery. He pulled the ring out of the box, and slid it onto Pan's finger. At that moment, he felt his own tears pouring down his face, one of those single tears of joy falling upon the dazzling ring that now marked Pan has his wife-to-be.

For the rest of the night they stayed there, lying back on that bench, in eachothers arms and looking deeply into eachothers eyes, seeing the dim light from their surroundings dance on the other's sparkling orbs.
