Author's Note: I'd like to say thank you to all the wonderful people who have reviewed my fics. You guys are the best. So, this chapter is dedicated to all of you. A Warrior's Quest Part Eleven: Vegeta Gohan Briefs Makes His Arrival With A Surprise Thrown In Too Pan landed near the ship and was immediately hustled inside by the men with her. Inwardly, she was laughing at the sight of the men trying to reassure her that everything would be fine when she thought they were in more need of reassurance than she was. Outwardly, she kept a straight face, bearing the increasing pain of her contractions with a strength ingrained in all Saiya-jins. She rolled her eyes at Bulma and Chichi when they appeared. She went to her room first to put away the Veil before heading to the medical bay. "Leave her alone. She's fine. The first child always takes a long time to be born," Bulma and Chichi scolded in unision as they pushed all the men out into the hall outside the medical bay. "Finally," Pan sighed as she sat down in a chair. She grinned at Bulma and Chichi. "Were Ojiisan and Veggie-sama this bad when you two were in labour?" she had to ask. Chichi nodded. "He was hopeless. I had to tell him what to do. As it is, he almost forgot me when he left for the hospital." Bulma shook her head. "Vegeta was off training when Trunks was born. And when Bra was born, he only threatened the doctors. I was already at the hospital visiting a friend when I went into labour, so it was only a matter of going to another floor and a different room." Pan giggled. "I can see Veggie-sama doing that," she said. "The contractions don't seem to be bothering you at all Pan. Are you sure you're in labour?" Bulma asked. Pan nodded and began hooking herself up to the equipment that would monitor the course of her labour. When she was finished, she sat on the edge of the bed and began to meditate. Bulma and Chichi looked at Pan in disbelief, then looked at the monitors. "She is definately in labour," Chichi said after looking at the read-outs on one of the monitors. "But how can she stand the pain?" "She does have Saiya-jin blood in her, so she could just be ignoring the pain like the guys do when they're fighting," Bulma reasoned. "She is the most Saiya-jin-like of our girls." Chichi nodded her agreement. "I can only wish we had Saiya-jin blood in us when we go into labour," she sighed, inwardly wincing at the pain she'd be enduring in a few more months. This time it was Bulma's turn to nod. ************* Vegeta finally got tired of watching Mirai Trunks pace and tied him down to a chair to get some peace. "Stay there unless you're called," he growled. Mirai Trunks glared at Vegeta. His eyes widened when he heard Pan's voice in his head. 'Would you please relax? Your son will take at least another hour to make his appearance and I'd like you to be conscious for the delivery,' Pan growled, her tone conveying her irritation with him. 'I'm just worried about you Pan-chan,' he replied. 'I'll be fine. Now relax. I'm in good hands. Baa-san and Bulma-san have gone through this two times already and they know what to do,' Pan said. 'You know, this is kinda weird. I'm supposed to be the one all anxious and everything and you are supposed to be the one reassuring me. Not the other way around.' Mirai Trunks blushed as he heard his mate's giggle at his embarassment. Vegeta sighed in relief when he saw Mirai Trunks calm down, knowing that he must be talking to Pan. He looked up when he saw Bulma and Chichi walk into the hallway. "What are you doing out here? Has the baby been born yet?" he demanded, getting to his feet, Goku and Yahmcha echoing him. Bulma and Chichi blinked at the barrage of questions coming from everyone but Mirai Trunks. "Um, Pan-chan sent us out here to grab some refreshments for us and no, the baby hasn't been born yet," Bulma replied. She smiled at Vegeta. "Relax." "Can I go and see her?" Mirai Trunks asked. He go to his feet. "Sure," Bulma and Chichi chorused. Mirai Trunks hurried into the room and over to his mate's side. "How are you doing?" he asked her softly. Pan smiled up at her mate. "I'm doing fine Tru-chan. You don't have to worry about me," she said. "Are you in any pain at all?" Mirai Trunks asked worriedly. Pan shook her head. "Ask me that in a few hours though. And I should warn you that you'll get a surprise today," she said. Mirai Trunks blinked and could only wonder what surprise Pan meant. ************************************************************************************************* The men in the hallway looked up four hours later when they heard a loud wail of protest.They all smiled. "He's got a good set of lungs," Yahmcha said. Vegeta and Goku nodded. ******************* Mirai Trunks looked down at the crying bundle in his arms and smiled mistily. Pan gave Mirai Trunks a tired smile. "Why don't you go and show him to the others. They're waiting out in the hall," she said. She waited till her husband had left the room and looked at Bulma and Chichi. "I didn't tell anyone else, but there's another baby," she told them before she began to push. Bulma and Chichi were shocked, but helped to deliver the squalling little child. "It's a girl!" Bulma gasped. "What are you going to call her?" Chichi asked as she cleaned the child. "Rayven Cena Briefs," Pan replied, feeling extremely exhausted. She smiled tenderly when she was handed her child and ran a gentle finger down her cheek. She looked up at the two women. "Why don't you go and show the proud papa and the others the new arrival?" she suggested. "I'll be fine. I'll take care of the clean-up and everything," she assured them. ********************* Mirai Trunks, Vegeta, Goku and Yahmcha looked up when Bulma and Chichi walked out into the hallway with another wrapped bundle that was moving. "Mirai-chan, I'd like you to meet Rayven Cena Briefs, your daughter," Bulma said, stunning all the men. "I have a daughter?" Mirai Trunks asked, walking over to Bulma shakily. He took the little bundle into his arms and looked down into the wrinkled little face. "Wow!"
