Last time:

“I know you both have some form of torment planned out for me today.”

“You’ll see when we get there.” They said and started to push Pan out the door and to the car.

Pan sighed a bit as the first thing popped into her mind was the word mall. ‘I’d not be surprised if they’d talk me into playing dress up later.’

Chapter 2:

The three girls were in the car and already headed off to one of the places Pan Fears the most mainly because of Bra’s favorite sport, so she classifies it under.

Pan remained quiet in the back seat until they reached the mall and then she didn’t want to get out of the car even as the other had to pull her out.

“Must you be so difficult Pan?” Bra said.

“Stop struggling.” Marron said pushing her out of the seat.

“You know I hate the mall!” Pan whined.

“I know, just because you say I always take too long, but I’m not going to get anything today I promise. I’ll just come back tomorrow for what I want.”

“Then why on earth are we here?!”

“We’re treating you to some new clothes, why else would there be?”

“Why though?”

“Early birthday shopping spree.”

“Get anything you want, but a new look that you will wear most of the time.” Bra said.

“Well ok, why didn’t you say so?” Pan got out as Bra fell back on her bottom from the lack of resistance and Marron fell forward into the seat. Pan got up and looked at the two then laughed a little until Bra grinned.

Bra got up and dusted herself off. “Now for that, we get to pick out a few sets of clothes for you and a dress or two.”

“What? You’re going to try to get me to wear a dress?”

She placed a hand on her hip and held up a finger to Pan. “Well yeah, it already been decided that you wear a nice dress for your party and I think someone would really like to see you in one.”

“Bra, are you really trying to set me up?” She crossed her arms looking at her friend.

“No I’m not, lets just get going.” She grabbed onto Pan’s wrists and started dragging her to the building with Marron fallowing.

Pan sighed and thought that she may as well get this done and over with as they all entered the mall. “Ok, ok fine have it your way…no need to pull me everywhere now.” She said as Bra let go of her arm.

“So where to start?” Bra and Marron said for a moment then looked to each other.

“How about the clothing first then the bikini. What do you think Pan?” Bra said looking to her.

“Mind if I also get a new Gi in the process?” Pan questioned.

“No problem as long it’s some sort of clothes.”

“All right, I want to get a Gi first then you may torment me by clothes.” She started heading over to a particular store.

“Ok.” Bra and Marron begin to fallow her.

Pan figured she might as well take the advantage of the opportunity and took a little bit of time looking for a semi-heavy, decent weighed Gi, along with some wrist and ankle weights to go with. She looked over to the other two who seemed to actually been looking around at the different types of Gi’s and workout wear then walked over.

They looked away from what they were looking at and turned to Pan.

“Are you done, Pan?” Bra asked and was about to reach into her purse.

“Yeah, I am.”

“All right, lets pay for it and then were off to get you some real clothes.” Bra said receiving a nod from Pan and the two walked over to pay for the Gi and weights.

After paying for it, Bra reached for the heavy-duty bag it was and found that it was rather heavy for her to lift. “What’s with it being heavy?” Bra asked shaking a little while passing it to Pan.

She took hold of the bag. “It’s not really like any other fabric; it’s actually supposed to be a bit heavy.”

“You call that a bit? Say like a lot!”

“Well that’s because you’re not use to lifting or wearing heavy things, so it seems light to me.” Pan said as the three left that store.

“You are an odd one, Pan.”

“I could say the same for you, especially for how you are and compared to what runs through your blood, but you have too much of Bulma’s genes.”

“Both of you are.” Marron spoke up after listening to the two.

“Yeah, but oh well.” Pan said with a light laugh.

“Anyway, time for real shopping.” Bra said getting a nod from Marron and grabbed onto Pan’s arm and started to jog off to the next store.

_____


After about ten to fifteen minutes, Pan picked out a couple different sets of clothes, like a few black shirts and denim cargo knickers, that she thinks would be ok for casual wearing as Bra and Marron was looking for at least two things that they would like for Pan to wear on certain occasions.

“Well I guess I’ll try these on really quick.” Pan said.

“Ok, well be over there in a few to give some others and a dress or two for you to try on and you have to do a little modeling in what we give you.” Bra said. “Isn’t that right Marron?”

“Yeah it sure is.”

Pan sighed a little in defeat. “Oh, all right, fine.” She walked off towards the dressing rooms.

Bra looked over to Marron and gave a peace sign and a smile. “This is easier than I thought.”

“Yeah a lot easier.” They both laughed a little and finished looking for the two sets they picked out for Pan.



The one Bra picked out was a faded blue jean skirt that should reach mid thigh along with a light blue spaghetti-strapped top and a jean button-up vest to match the skirt. Marron picked out jean cutoff short shorts and an orange tank top.

“So you ready to get the dresses?” Marron asked.

“Yep, lets hurry up and get them.” They headed off over to look at dresses.

By the time Pan was finished trying on the clothes she picked, she walked out of the dressing room with hopes that Bra and Marron wasn’t there yet until she seen them standing there with more clothes for her as they said and sighed.

“Here you go Pan-chan.” Bra said holding onto the clothes.

“Oh ok, here Marron hold onto these for me.” Pan said handing what was in her arms to the blonde.

“Ok, but you gotta hurry up and try those on quickly.” She said taking what Pan handed her.

Pan took the sets of clothes Bra was holding out to her and sighed. “I’ll tell you this; I will never be caught dead doing this again.” She said walking back into the dressing room and leaving Bra with a big smile.

Once Pan shut the door behind her, she hung most of it up and took a look at them. ‘I cannot believe I am actually doing this.’ She thought.

Bra and Marron was talking for a minute or two when Pan came out wearing what outfit the blue-haired girl picked out first. They stopped talking for a moment and looked to her.

Pan just stood there with her hands on her hips looking directly at Bra. “You gotta be kidding me Bra! This seems ridiculous to me.” She said.

“What I figured it would look good and actually it does. You’re just used to covering up most of yourself and actually need to show more skin.”

“It does look good on you, Pan. You really should dress a bit more feminine, but you still can be a tomboy.” Marron said.

“Why do I get the feeling that everyone is against me?”

“We’re not; we just think a change in appearance will help.”

“Yeah, if you were meant to be a boy, you would have been, but you’re not; and you never know who would have an eye out on you.” Bra said.

“Yeah right, like that is something I really care much for.” Pan sighed for a moment then changed her tone of voice completely. “Does it really look good on me?”

“Yes it does!” Both of them said.

“Now go try the rest on and take that bandana off for now.” Bra said.

“Ok, ok, don’t get snappy.” She turned and walked back into the small room.

Within another few minutes she walked back out with a long black dress with a low v-cut neck and a long slit along the left side to show a little more than her mid thigh. She let her right arm dangle to her side and her left, across her stomach; putting on a bit of an innocent look.

“That looks very nice.” The youngest demi-saiyan said.

“Yeah, especially with the innocent look.” Marron added.

“I really don’t know how I let you talk me into this…it’s so embarrassing.”

“What’s there to be embarrassed about? It’s only us.” Marron said.

“I mean all in general it is for me…”

“Well you’ll get use to it.”

“Whatever.” Pan sighed and went back to change again.

Bra and Marron was back in a little conversation just as Bra spotted Goten with is obvious girlfriend, Paris walking in. Bra gave a sigh and turned away hoping not to be noticed for now, but ended up failing.

Goten was laughing with Paris a little and then spotted Bra and Marron standing over near the dressing rooms. He looked to Paris and gave a slight nod, having her come along to meet them

“Hey Bra, hey Marron. What are the two of you doing here?” Goten asked.

“Oh nothing much, just waiting.” Marron said.

“Oh, waiting for who?”

“You’ll see if you stick around for a little.”

“Um, ok, I guess I’ll wait and see.” Goten said and felt Paris’s hand hold his. “Oh have you both met Paris?”

“No.” They both answered, but Marron said a little surprised but Bra said with a hint of jealousy; that only Marron caught.

“So who’s you’re friends, Goten?” Paris asked.

“That’s Bra, Trunks little sister and that’s Marron.”

“Oh it’s nice to meet the both of you.” Paris said.

“Like wise, Paris.” Marron said.

Pan was off in her own mind, basically complaining about this and that to where she blocked any other sounds out of her mind as she walked out in the orange tank top and short shorts.

Bra was about to give to cold shoulder to Paris and Goten as the creek of a door opened, catching everyone’s attention to see Pan standing there, looking down for a moment.

Goten blinked several times looking at his niece before it registered to him. “Pan?” He then looked to Bra and Marron who looked back at him and nodded before he could ask.

Pan shook from her thoughts after hearing her name and looked up. “W-what…are you doing here uncle Goten?” She said nervously and gulped.

“Hanging around with Paris, but I never would have thought you’d actually be here shopping! What a surprise.” He said out of shock. “Just wait until I tell-”

“Don’t you even dare to tell anyone about this! Not even…” She was going to blurt out a name but stopped herself before. “Well no one else needs to know! If you do, you better watch your back, I know where you sleep!” She even threatened.

Goten let go of Paris’ hand to throw his up in defense. “Whoa Panny, take it easy. No need to bite my head off.” He rubbed her back of his head and gave the Son’s familiar laugh. “I promise I won’t tell anyone about this.”

“You better.” She said crossing her arms.

“I mean it, I won’t.”

“Good and by the way, hi Paris.”

“Hello Pan.”
Pan looked to Bra and Marron. “It’s time to call it quiets for today.” She said with a hind of demand in her voice as she went back to change in her usual clothes.

The two girls got the feeling that it will be difficult if they were to keep Pan from actually leaving from here on and looked to each other then sighed.

“Oh well, better to listen to her this time.”

“Yeah, may as well.” Marron said and looked over to the side. “Hey Goten, you got the time?”

“Um yeah...” He looked at his watch. “It’s about three-thirty, why?”

“Just curious on what time is was all.”

For a minute or two there was an awkward silence among the four standing around while Paris basically hung onto Goten as Bra was giving a cold shoulder to Goten and Paris. Marron felt a tension of jealousy coming from Bra but the other two was a little too naive to noticed.

Pan walked out with the two dresses in hand along with the sets of clothes, her friends picked out, draped over her shoulder. She stopped dead in her tracks after feeling how thick the tension was as she looked from Bra then to her uncle. A smudged smirk appeared upon her face as a plan was starting to form within her mind. “Ahem…” She cleared her throat to get everyone’s attention, mostly that of Bra and Marron.

Bra quickly snapped out of it. “Well we better get going. We have to be back in time to help set up for the little get together.” She said quickly really wanting to actually leave as she picked up the bag Pan’s Gi was in without thinking and hurried over to her tomboyish friend. She looked over at Marron, giving her a certain look. She just couldn’t stand seeing Goten with another girlfriend anymore.

Marron gave a little nod then looked to Goten. “Yeah, we promised to help out a little.” She said and started to make her way towards Pan and Bra.

Goten blinked a little. “Oh all right then, I guess I’ll see ya and everyone else later when I get there.” He said.

Pan looked to the blue-haired girl and just switched off what they were holding to one another.

“All right, later Goten.” Marron said.

“It was nice meeting the both of you.” Paris said as she and Goten walked off

The trio started walking towards the front of the store quietly for a few moments until Pan was sure they had enough distance away from her uncle and Paris. She looked over at Bra and so did Marron as the young blue-haired demi-saiyan looked down, giving a heavy sigh.

“Something’s up Bra, what is it?” Pan said.

“What do you mean?” Bra said giving a fake smile and acting as if they didn’t know.

“What is wrong with you?” Marron asked.

“Nothing is, why do you both think there is?”

“One, you were sending out certain vibes as if shunning someone.” Marron started.

“Second, the tension in the air could be felt, believe me I know when there is and it’s not much different than sensing Ki. I don’t know how my uncle could not feel it.”

“Third, you were in such a rush to get away from them.” Both Pan and Marron said. “You’re jealous.”

Bra gave another sigh. “I’m not jealous…” She lied.

“Well, you could fool some, but you surely did have on hell of a jealous look on your face.” Pan said as they reached the cash register.

“You cannot deny it forever, you know.” Marron said putting Pan’s new outfits on the little conveyor belt.

“Can we talk about this once we get out?” Bra said putting the rest of the clothes behind the others.

“Ok, but you better tell us everything.” Pan said.

“All right, fine.” Bra swiped her credit card through then grabbed one of the bags as so did the other two.

Once they got out to the car and tossed the bags into the back seat, the trio got in and started leaving the parking lot.

“So spill it, you have a thing for my uncle, huh?”

“Well actually I do…but it’s a little bigger than just a thing.”

“Oh and here’s the truth, you are jealous.” Marron said.

“I was starting to get the idea that you did.”

“I can’t stand seeing him around another girl that is outside of family and close friends that is. It’s just unnerving to me every time he’s with someone.” She looked down a little. “I want to hope that I can have a chance with him and I don’t think I will... Plus he his quite older than I am and I think because of that also won’t help out as well…” She explained.

“Well if that’s how you really want it, why don’t you just go for it and see what will happen or are you just going to wait for the right moment?” Marron mentioned. “Well I don’t think age should play as a factor in the game.”

“Well I want to find the right moment, but there really haven’t been one…But then if my dad would find anything out, the both of us would be toast…”

“You’re right about that, but Vegeta would have so much fun finishing my uncle off…though we really don’t want that to happen.”

“No, well how about we just keep it a secret between us if it does come about?”

“Yeah, that would help.” Bra said with a faint smile. “Thanks.”

“Then that’s agreed.” Pan said.

Marron looked into the back mirror to look at Pan. “So Pan…Do you have anyone in mind?”

“N-no…why would I?” She said from being caught off guard.

“Awe, come on, there’s gotta be someone.”

“Yeah Pan, who is it?” Bra said knowing but trying to get her to come out with it.

“It’s no one at all. I still don’t care for that sort of thing, you know.” She said. The only way she would really come out and say it is if they gave her truth serum.

Bra thought of something to mess around with Pan a little. “Don’t tell me you’re going to go lesbian on us?” She said as the two up front tried not t laugh right away.

“Bra!!!” Pan yelled causing Bra and Marron to bust up into a laughing fit. “I’m not going lesbian and I never will! And for that I’m never going to tell you who!”

“Ooooh, there is someone. Who is the lucky guy?” Marron said teasingly.

“He must be pretty strong enough to handle a hot-headed tomboy, which they spent plenty of time together.” Bra said trying to give Marron a hint.

“Bra! Shut-up about it!” Pan quickly slapped her hand over Bra’s mouth to shut her up.

Marron raised a brow as she caught onto the little hint as a smirk spread across her face. “It’s nothing to be shy about.”

“Can we just drop it?” Pan questioned as Bra gave a slight nod and then she removed her hand. “Good…”
