Chapter Five


 

*Same Night*

Goten flew out as the night passed on by him. "Why did I play myself like that to her? She is still too young for me. Though I will wait for her, and then I will take her. Then I will taste those lips for the first time and make her mine if she accepts my offer. I pray she will, that my heart is leading me right to think that she would after tonight." Goten thought to himself. Lately, his thoughts had been consumed of various things. So many changes were taking place. No longer was he thick headed as to be thought as, though not a genius like Gohan. He was starting to really enjoy life with people looking at him like he was being him and not as his Tousama.

"The tears I have cried are mine and only heaven knows why. I can live no more as your eyes send me into an eternity of hell that I can no longer bare. I gratify falling for you and giving you my heart, though I know it was right. I'm not as strong as I thought and I can not survive. I can't take the pain anymore as you left my empty inside. I just wish I could have died in yours.”

~ Pan Son ~

His eyes couldn't believe what he read. The paper just slipped out his hands and landed on the floor silently. His body felt numb as his mouth slightly opened, "Pan, no." he said softly as it sounded through the empty house.

Pan stood on the cave as the waterfall pounded into the water below. She could smell the grassy field that laid a shore from it. It was her and Trunks’ place. She flew slowly down taking in her last breath as her heart could be beat no more. She would die here and sleep forever in a dream that would never come true. A dream that would never be interrupted. Never to wake and have pain come back to her.

She slowly touched the ground feeling her bare feet being tickled underneath from the green grassy field. Her fingers trailed up her arms taking in a shiver before reaching the straps on her shoulders. Slowly sliding them down the dress fell slowly before hitting the ground. She wore nothing under it. The only time she would wear a dress and no one to see her in it.

She reached up to take off her bandanna but decided not. "I always told Kaasama, I would die wearing it." she said as a smile crept her face. The moon grew less and less bright as the night grew older into the day. Her eyes closed as she walked forward up to the icy water that would capture her tonight and give her her peace finally.

"Damn it Pan, you had to lower your ki, now I can hardly feel you. This blasted darkness is not making it any easier to see you either." Trunks growled out loud flying faster into the night.

Silky pale skin touched the icy water as it felt like daggers piercing into her skin. She bit her lips as her carnivore teeth drew deep red velvet blood to drip run over her lips and onto her chin.

"Kami Pan, what has happened to you? What has happen to me?" Trunks sighed softly breathing in the cool air as it whipped around his body. His speed gaining, as his mind could race no more of any thought and only his heart to guide him. His heart to lead him and keep him going until he found her.

Her legs straighten up at the cool temperature cruelly wracking her body of painful waves. Though another was made after the other. The water creeping up to her knee's now. As they became numb. She could feel herself almost falling, but she kept going. Another step closer to a world of no pain.

Swiftly, a muscular body flew only being led by his heart to a place he only knew of besides her. A place they shared. He knew now where to go. His lavender hair intertwining into the wind that chilled his body. "Pan I'm coming. HOLD ON!" Trunks yelled pushing his body to the max, gaining speed like he never felt. As if this feeling taking over his body was giving him power beyond anything he ever felt.

A still body that could move no more, nor a voice that could scream for help even if wanted to. Water touching her iced blue lips as that little blood mixed into the water. Awaiting for a slight push through the water to knock her over. To take her under and keep her buried forever from the pain of the world above that would be placed upon her .

"Damn it, I'm almost there and I still can't feel her. Pan you better have not left me yet. Please I need you." he said lowering above the nearby shore line of where the water would wash over the little rocks.

Her eyes closed and skin pale of whiteness that even the snow could not explain. The moon light still fading over her black hair as it sunk further into the depths of the darkness blue water to only leave an orange rag to float above. A body now swallowed by the water to never return and leaving nothing behind beside an orange cloth to mark her grave.
