You're where I belong
The Race
A/N this chapter is written differently from the others it is more narration then dialogue.
Goten and Trunks had un-fused. It seemed that it had taken a lot more then Chi chi's frying pan to subdue Goku. It also helped Goten to forget about Bra for a little while…but it was too late…
After the two Saiyans dropped from the fused state it took only a minute before both became very alarmed. Pan and Bra were not at CC anymore. Searching for their Ki signature Trunks caught a feeling that both were together, with a stretch of thought Trunks heard Pan tell him that her and Bra were busy and that they would see them later. Satisfied, he joined his friends and family; it seemed that since everyone was all together that an impromptu BBQ was called for.
Pan knew Trunks would keep track of her and Bra's whereabouts issued the idea to suppress their Ki and block out any thoughts from their loved ones. It was and easy enough trick considering the IT did not emit Ki power ups…..
To complete the arrangements for the BBQ, Yamcha flies back home to gather his girlfriend Marron (yes Krillin's old flame) and Puar. Krillin and 18 ask if Uub could pick up Maron (their daughter) from West City, and that they would go back a fetch, Roshi, Oolong, and Turtle. Trunks tried to encourage Goten for a friendly spar and Goku sat near Piccolo and Gohan all three began to meditate.
Meditating to keep from begin extremely hungry, Goku relaxes his mind and senses a jump of a certain Ki. He had been practicing with Pan IT. He recognized that Pan was suppressing her Ki but using IT and she was jumping around quickly. Wondering what his granddaughter and best friend were up to he tries to track her movements. He opened his eyes once to see everyone else engaged in their own world so he sets off to locate Pan's IT energy. He leaves only to find that the girls were not there. He zones in again on Pan's IT signature and he misses her again. But then he notices that the earth seemed disturbed, and there were a few Ki burn marks, and two dead dinosaurs. When Goku begins to think about what the possibilities are he quickly returns back to CC.
(A/N Goku is not all that dumb people!)
Wondering why his dad popped out, Gohan asked him where he had gone, turning a solemn face to Gohan, “I was trying to find Bra and Pan.”
“What's wrong dad?”
“They are fine but they are on an adventure.”
Gohan looked at his dad's state and assumed that he probably was missing out on some fun, and it seemed the girls were having a better time. Blame it on Goku's hunger and the fact that they had to stick him more times with the needles because he kept wiggling and hollering too much!
Goku retreats to find his recent DragonBall hunter partner.
“Trunks, do you have the Dragon Radar?”
Both men turn and Goku follows Trunks into the workshop. Going to the first place where the Radar was stored, he finds the drawer empty. “Giru!”
The little android bot bleeps and comes from his corner where he had been hiding realizing that Pan would get him into trouble.
“Giru, show us your radar”
Giru produces the radar that he had incorporated during the grand tour and Trunks and Goku notice that were are 4 balls together and 3 in very different quadrants. Watching Trunks, Goku sees that he just realized what he suspected. Trunks sucked in when he noticed that the 4 balls blipped off screen only to close in on another ball. Looking at Goku both say, “Pan!”
Trunks grabbed Giru and put his hand on Goku's shoulder, Goku zoned in again on Pan but figured she would go to the next ball closest Trunks and Goku and Giru disappear.
They had 5 balls. This was going very smoothly. Ti had only been 2 hours and they were making great time. The girls would make it back to CC way before any test results were in. Hopefully, none of it would matter by then. Deciding on their next jump, Pan decides that, “We will go to the furthest ball from home, and then backtrack to the closer one; we should be home free by then.” Agreeing Pan goes to the next quadrant.
However, Trunks and Goku had gone to the opposite ball. The Kais were on the girls' side today. Hoping to catch the girls unaware the threesomes decide to find the last ball instead. They were in a town bazaar, and the race to find the last ball began.
Trunks and Goku had not found the last ball, but the girls had 6 balls together. “It won't be long, they will be here soon.”
“WE have been searching for an hour! Where could it be? WE have gone into every shop in this little area and there is nothing!
