Pan held Herros hand and lead him deeper into the steel jungle that was West City. They passed tall buildings and flew over crowds of people, but in all these new things around Herro, Herro couldn't stop thinking of Pan. Her hand was warm and held his tightly, but not to the point of it hurting. And the sunset light Pan looked very pretty. 'Red and orange...' Herro thought. 'That's a good color for Pan.' Herro blushed and tried to stop himself from thinking like that. Eventually the city buildings started to fade, and the streets became surburbia.
"There it is!" Pan said suddenly. Just ahead was a large dome. It was painted an off white and it said "Capsule Corp" on the front. Its garden was a lush green and it stuck out like a sore thumb in suburbia. Pan and Herro landed in front of the dome like building, hand in hand. And Pan walked into it letting go of Herros hand. Herro stood in front of the building, watching Pan go inside, and then seeing her waving her hands for Herro to follow. Herro gripped his hand a little, missing Pan holding it, but then followed.
He walked past the auto-matic opening doors and stood in the middle of the floor next to Pan. Then a floughting robot flew past the pair, making Herro gasp. It looked at them, then landed on the floor, popping out a pair of arms and legs, and ran to Pan. "Pan!" it screamed. Pan held out her hands and gave the machine a hug.
"Giru! I can't belive I acually missed you." Giru looked at Herro, and Herro glared at it and backed away a little. "Herro, this is Giru."
"Giru." the robot said.
"What is it?" Herro asked, not trusting the little machine.
"He's a robot, what do you think he is?" Pan held up Giru in front of Herros face. Herro stepped back in surprise. "You don't have to be afraid, Giru won't hurt you."
"Giru." it said again. Herro blinked, then poked it a little. It felt like nothing Herro ever felt before, and it made the young saiyan more curious and more cautious at the same time. Herro held Giru and exzamined him closly.
"Giru, this is Herro. He's a good friend of mine." Pan told Giru.
"Herro!" it said and tried to hug the saiyan. Herro yelped and let go of the robot. Giru didn't fall, but levetated in the air. Giru floughted a little closer to Herro, and Herro stepped back from it. "Herro does not like Giru?" Giru asked, sounding a little hurt.
"No, Herros just a little shy." Pan said smiling.
"I am not!" Herro argued.
"Okay, prove it." Pan said, grinning now. Herro blinked and then looked at Giru. Giru held out its hand.
"Hello- Giru. My name is Giru." Giru said. Herro was about to shake its hand, but hesitated. Then gulped and shook it.
"I'm Herro." he said frowning.
"There, that wasn't so hard was it?" Herro wipped his hand on his pants, the matirial that made Girus hand was not appealing to him. "Giru, can you lead us to Bulma?" Pan asked. Giru nodded, and flew past another door.
Pan and Herro followed Giru into Capsule Corp. They walked up stairs and walked down hallways, untill Giru lead them into a living room, and on the couch was Bulma. She was reading a magazine and didn't notice them come in. "Bulma." Pan said trying to get her attention. Bulma turned and looked at Pan.
"Pan. What are you doing here? I thought you were on a training trip." Bulma noticed Herro. "Who's your friend?"
"That's Herro. You see I was on my trip but I ran into Herro, you see he's-"
"Is that a tail?!" Bulma asked, pointing at Herros monkey tail.
"Yeah, you see he's a Saiyan."

After explaining things to Bulma too many times for Pans liking, Bulma welcomed Herro into her home. Bulma showed the hot-headed saiyan around the house for a little while, and Pan noticed how unclean they both were. Pan was dirty from being outside so many times, and she hasn't had a shower in the longest time. "Bulma? Can I use your shower?" Pan asked, a little embarrest to ask.
"Of course. Maybe you can borrow Bras clothing... if you'll fit." Herro snikered, and Pan glared at him, then smirked.
"Acually, I think Herro should go first." Herro blinked.
"What?" he asked.
"Yeah. Look at you, you look like you jumped in a pile of mud."
"Hey! When you live in a place like Teigra, you got to do some gross things!"
"Yeah, but you're not in Teigra anymore! And if you're going to live outside of it, you're going to have to look nicer, right?" Pan asked, turning to bulma for an anser.
"Uh... yeah?" Bulma said nervously.
"Yeah! So get your butt in the shower!" Pan commanded, pushing Herro towards the bathroom.
"W-wait! I don't know how to work-" Herro was cut off when Pan slammed the bathroom door on him. Pan laughed clapped her hands together.
"Does he know how to work the shower?" Bulma asked.
"No. That's what he gets for laughing at me. Do you have any cloths he can borrow?" she asked.
"Yes, I think he can borrow some of Vegetas, he's a little to big for Trunks's clothing." Bulma said walking down the hall. Pan followed and they reached the door to Bulmas and Vegetas room. Bulma went through some of the dresser dros and picked out some pants.
"Hey," Pan began. "Does Vegeta still have that pink shirt?" Pan asked smirking.

Herro looked around the bathroom. He didn't reconize anything there, and the white tiles and bright lights made him a little nervous. Herro growled. "Is this supposed to be punishment? Ha! I've been through worse!" Herro laughed and confindently walked towards the tub. Herro stopped and stared at the bathtub. "What am I supposed to do now?" he asked no one in particular.
Pan walked back to the bathroom, carring a pair of jeans and a pink shirt. When she got to the bathroom, she knocked on the door. There was no anser. Pan put her ear to the door, and she heard a small mumbling sound. She opened the door and saw Herro sitting on the floor cross-legged, and staring at the tub. His forhead was sweating a little, and he looked like he was thinking hard. "Herro?" Pan asked. Herro looked at Pan.
"That was dirty, Pan." he said grumpily. Pan snikered.
"That's what you get for laughing at me." Herro humphed and looked away from her. "Ah come on. You're not that angry are you?" Pan asked walking up to Herro. Herro humphed again. "Come on Herro. I'm sorry." she apologized. Herro growled.
"Fine, I forgive you." he grunted. Pan smiled, then placed his cloths on the bathroom counter.
"I'll make it up for you, okay? Come here, I'll show you how to work the shower." After showing Herro how to work the shower, Pan walked out, and went into the living room. Pan lied down on the couch. "I called your Mom and Dad over, the'll bring you some cloths for you, and I think they should meet Herro too." Pan laughed nervously. She was eager to see her parents again, she just didn't want anything weird to happen; like her parents asking if Herro was her boyfriend. "So Pan, what's with the deal with Herro anyway?" Bulma asked grinning.
"Huh?" Pan asked, trying not to blush.
"Is he your boyfriend?"
"No! It's not like that at all!" Pan yelled blushing deeply. Bulma laughed.
"Okay, say what you want." Pan growled, trying to contain a blush but failing.
A half-hour later the living room door opened, revealing Gohan and Videl, and surprisingly, Vegeta, Bra, Trunks, and Chi-chi. Pan flew and hugged her mother. "Mom!" she yelled, hugging her tightly.
"Oh, Pan!" Chi-chi screamed, prying her away from Videl and hugging her.
"Hi Grandma." Pan said timidly.
"So Pan, how'd your training go?" Gohan asked.
"Yeah, I can tell you gotten stronger." Trunks commented. Pan laughed and scratched the back of her head.
"Well-"
"Hey!" an angry voice interupted. Everyone looked to where the came from and saw a half dressed Herro. Herro had succesfully put on the pasir of jeans, but apparently seldom learned how to button buttons. His shirt was wide open, and his jeans button was open, making Pan blush. "What the hell is wrong with you, giving this- this- PINK!" Herro yelled pointing at the pink shirt.
"Herro!" Pan screamed, her face turning red. Pan pushed Herro into the neiboring room, where they started to argue. Herro yelled at Pan about pink shirts, and Pan screamed about dignity.
Vegeta looked at Bulma. "What was that?" he asked.

"This shirt, is PINK! I can't wear PINK!" Herro screamed.
"It's just a color! Be a man and wear it!"
"I won't be a man if I wear it!" Pan growled at his attitude, then noticed that his shirt was wide open. Pan blushed again.
"Can you at least button your shirt? Pants too?" Pan asked, turning around. Herro mumbled.
"I... don't know how." he said, blushing a little too.
"What?" Pan asked in disbelife.
"I never used this kind of shirts. And these pants feel funny..." Pan laughed a little.
"That's because there made of denim, you'll get used to them." Pan said approuching Herro. Pan buttoned his jeans, and started on his shirt. "You do it like this, kay?" Pan said, showing Herro how to do it properly. Pan noticed that Herros hair was much silkier looking, and his skin was paler than the last time she saw him. 'The dark skin he had was proboly dirt.' Pan thought.
"Now you try." Pan said, motioning to the last button on his shirt. Herro put his hands on the peice of plastic, and fumbling a little, got it buttoned. "Good."
Pan started for the door, but Herro put a hand on her shoulder stopping her. "Pan, wait."
"What?" she asked blushing a little. Pan was hoping Herro wasn't getting any ideas, being alone in this tiny room.
"Uh... there's another problem." Herro turned around. Herros tail was sticking out awkwardly from his pants. Pan put her finger to the back of the jeans, and easily poked a hole for the saiyans tail. Herro nodded in thanks. Pan then led Herro out of the small room to everyone outside. Vegeta stared at Herro in shock as he saw his tail.
"You-you're..."
"A saiyan." Pan finished.
After explaining as much as they could Vegeta still was in doubt. "But are full blooded? Or half, like me?" Trunks asked.
"We havn't sampled any of Herros blood yet, so we're not sure."
"What do you mean by 'sampled'?" Herro asked nervously.
"I mean I'll take a needle and stick in your vein and take some blood."
"WHAT?!" Herro screamed, jumping behind Pan.
"Relax Herro, you've been through worse." Pan said.
"Needles don't sound nice, Pan!" Herro yelled.
"Oh they won't hurt. It just pinchs." Pan lied. Pans had shots before, and like her Grandfather, hates them to no end.
"It doesn't hurt?"
"They don't hurt at all!"
"Well... fine." Herro mumbled. Vegeta growled.
"The only thing I want to know is how is he here?! Planet Vegeta was destroyed when I was a boy, and he says he's sixteen? They only way he could be that age if he was my or Gohans son!" Vegeta said angerily. Pan blinked at his statment. What if Herro really was Vegetas son? Or worse, her brother?
"He can't be our son Vegeta." Bulma said. "Last time I checked, we only had two children."
"And he can't be our son either." Videl said, motioning to Gohan. "We only had Pan."
"Then he has to be a full blooded saiyan. As far as we knew Goku and you," Bulma pointed at vegeta. "Were the only pure blooded saiyans left."
"But what about Broly? He was a legendary saiyan." Trunks said.
"But we killed Broly before Herro was born. He's only sixteen, and I doubt Broly could get a woman." Vegeta said.
"So, the only way to find out if he's a pure saiyan, or related to any of us, is to take a blood sample." Bulma concluded. Bulma got up and off her seat, and beconed Herro to follow her down the hall.
Five minutes later they heard the high pitched scream of Herro, and five more later Bulma came walking into the room again. Herro walked in as well, rubbing his arm. Herro glared at Pan. "You lied." Herro growled. Pan laughed nervously.
"If I told you if it would hurt, you would have never done it." Pan said grinning.
"First the pink shirt, now this." Herro growled again.
"Herro! It's over now, and you won't have another shot again, okay?" Pan said. Herro humphed, and Pan sighed.
"I checked the blood over, and over. Herro is a full blood Saiyan, and he's (of course) completly unrelated to any of us."
"Well, Vegeta was a big planet. Maybe Herros family escaped its destruction." Vegeta said crossing his arms.
"So that leaves one more question." Pan said. Everyone stared at Pan, including Herro. "Where's Herro going to stay?"
