A Warrior's Quest Part Three: First Object Found Pan was sitting on her bed, looking over the notes she'd made about the planets they'd be traveling to with a small frown on her face. She looked up at the electronic voice that told her they were nearing their first destination. She leapt off the bed and ran to the controls. Mirai Trunks and the others buckled themselves into their seats as the ship began to descend to the planet below. They watched as Pan moved about the ship freely, unaffected by the motion of the ship as it descended at an alarmingly fast speed. Pan began to type at the controls, checking the atmosphere and gravity. "It's safe for everyone to go outside," she said and the ship landed on the planet with a jarring thump. ******************* Bulma looked at the computer screen when it beeped at her. "They've landed," she told Trunks and Vegeta, looking over her shoulder at them. Her fingers flew over the keyboard as she checked the stats of the ship and everyone onboard. "They're all doing okay and so is the ship. They should be leaving the ship and searching for the item once they've got their supplies together." "They will be all right. Pan-chan and Goku-san know what they're doing. They've been out in space before," Trunks said, more to reassure himself than anyone else. Vegeta just rolled his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest. "You're all worrying over nothing," he snorted. "Pan-chan and my son will take care of the women and even Kakarott and the other two." ******************* Pan and Mirai Trunks were the first to leave the ship, both of them carrying backpacks with supplies inside them. They looked around them. "This sure isn't what I expected from space travel," Chichi said as she stepped out onto the planet. Pan laughed silently when she heard those words. She shared an amused look with her mate as they started to explore. "Stay here until Tru-chan and I come back," she told her otousan and ojiisan sternly. She and Mirai Trunks levitated off the ground and flew off towards the north. "Now what are we supposed to do?" Videl asked her husband. Gohan just shrugged. "I'm going to make lunch," Chichi said. "You can help me Videl-san." ********************* Pan flew back to the ship an hour later, her mate right behind her. She held an ivory colored sword in her arms and wore a smile on her face. Goku looked up when he felt the two ki of his grandaughter and his friend near the ship. "They're back," he told everyone. Pan walked into the kitchen, holding the sword out. "We have the first object," she said. Yahmcha got up from the table to get a closer look at it. "I'm the only one who can hold it," Pan said when Yahmcha tried to take it from her. She looked at the sword then slid it into it's sheath. "I'd better put this away." Mirai Trunks brought a container that Pan had designed at Capsule Corp. and waited while she placed it inside. Then he carried it to their room and put it in a storage space in their closet. "Why are you the only one who can hold it or touch it?" Gohan asked. "I'm the one sent to get it," Pan replied. "I am the one destined to gather these items so I'm the only one who can touch them." Chichi and Videl nodded, Goku scratched his head, Gohan thought for a few moments and Yahmcha looked petulant. Mirai Trunks walked back into the room. "We should leave the planet soon. We want to get all the items soon and return home, don't we?" he asked as he kissed Pan's cheek. Everyone nodded and they prepared to leave the planet. ********************* "They have the first item," Dende told Piccolo. "They should soon have the other eleven and then Earth will finally be safe." Piccolo grunted and sipped his water, but really he was pleased by the news. He agreed with Dende on the matter of Earth's protection, though he was still doubtful of Pan being the most powerful warrior in the universe. "Let's just hope there are no problems or delays," he said then fell silent.
