BP Adventures-Chapter 1



Bra and Pan were trying on clothes in the fitting room at the mall.
“ That skirt looks sooooo kawaii on you Panny!  Just get it!  “
 Pan was trying on an A-line turquoise silk skirt with Chinese embroidered flowers on it, It hung right below her belly button and stopped in the middle of her thigh.
 “ Demo . . .  I don’t really wear skirts.  I usually wear jeans remember?”
 “ Yeah but you never know when you’ll need it.  Besides it shows off your long legs and it complements your hair! “
 Pan started to laugh.
“ Shikashi you have long legs too, and it matches your hair! “
 Bra shot Pan a scorn.
 “ Pan!  Yamero!  That’s not funny!  You know I’m self conscience about my blue hair that turns lavender sometimes.  Kassan has the same problem.  I just don’t understand how our hair color changes color, while Ojiisan and Niichan keep their lavender shade.  I feel like such a freak!  I’ve been thinking about dying my hair. “
 “ Doushite?  Bra I was just teasing!  I think your natural blue and lavender hair is sugoi!!  It reminds me of . . . of . . . “
 “ Of what Panny?  Ha!  Your don’t even know!  Admit it, it’s just freaky! “
 “ Oh it’s not.  It makes you different from other people.  I bet some people would die to have hair like yours.  It goes with your blue eyes.  Why do you think I dyed my hair?  Minna seems to have black hair and eyes.”
 Bra gazed at her friend’s hair.
 “  All I can see is that ponytail and some reddish brownish colors in your hair.  You never let down your hair these days! Hey!!  Why don’t you sleepover tonight?  We can make each other over!  You haven’t slept over in a  while and you’ve stopped putting on makeup and letting down your hair all together. “
 “ Who has time to put on makeup with all those tests we take in school?  And if I let my hair down it’ll just get in my way.  Besides I never wore much make up anyway, it was only mascara and eyeliner. “
 “  Still it was something.  I swear Panny, without me you’d be a guy right now! “  Bra burst out laughing.
 “ I just don’t feel like wearing that stuff anymore.  I’m too lazy to. “
 “ Or too manly to! “  Bra starts to hold her stomach and laughs hysterically.
 “ Bra!!  Shut up Kool-Aid head! “
 “  Panny! “ Bra choked out in between giggles.  “ That’s not funny!  Hey are you gonna stay over or not? “
 “ Yeah I will. After shopping let’s go by my house so I can tell my parents and pick up some clothes.  You know I think I will buy this skirt.  I need some more skirts anyway. “
 “  See I told you!  There’s never any harm in buying extra clothes! “  Bra said with a  grin.
 After visiting seven more shops the girls were done shopping.  They went to Pan’s house to leave her parents a note and then headed off to Capsule Corp. in Bra’s car.
 “ Ooooo Panny!  I almost forgot to tell you!  I heard Niichan on the phone with Goten last night, hee hee and it turns out Goten broke up with Marron! “  Bra said with glee.
 “ Nani?  Honto?  Shikashi they went out for a year.  I’ve never seen Tweedle Dumb with a girl for more than two months! “
{ Then again I’ve never seen Trunks go out with a girl for more than a year either, and he broke up with Marron after two years. . .  She’s the only girl that’s been with him the longest, so that means Marron must’ve been special to him. . . And here I am thinking that he was just attracted to those extremely feminine type of girls.  The kind that bats their eyelashes and walk like their stepping on glass.  Since those were the only kind he went out with.  Marron fell into that category perfectly.  But after Marron, the longest he has ever been with a girly girl was for a year, tops.  Doushite?  Even though he dated a lot, it just didn’t seem as OUCH! }
 “ Panny! “
 “ Ouch!  Bra whatcha do that for? ”
 “ I did it because you weren’t listening to a word I said!  I asked why you always call Goten Tweedle Dumb!”
Bra asked with a slightly annoyed tone.
 “ ‘Cuz he started to call me Meen Bow Toe when I was seven.  That’s when him and Tweedle Dumber came back from China and discovered they were Chinese food addicts.  Don’t you remember?  They were in China for that whole summer.  That’s when I started to grow out my short hair.  When they came back, Tweedle Dumb asked me what happened to my old hairstyle and said that with it my head reminded him of all the Bows they ate on their vacation.  Bow Toe didn’t sound as catchy as Meen Bow Toe.  Meen Bow literally means Pan.  He said it was fate and Dumber agreed.  To get back at them, I nicknamed them Tweedle Dumb and Tweedle Dumber since they act annoying and retarded together. “
 “  Zettai Omoidatta.  Oh Panny. . . . “  Bra said in a high teasing voice.
 “ What? “
Pan started to narrow her eyes at Bra, anticipating that Bra would say something to embarrass her.
 “ That doesn’t explain why your eyes just glazed over like that.  You were thinking about Niichan and his relationship with Marron, ne? “
Bra gave Pan a I-know-everything look.  Pan grumbled something and looked out the window.
 “ Oh Panny!  I still don’t understand why you still get embarrassed whenever I tease you about Niichan.  It’s not like it’s something new.  We both know you had a crush on him since you were thirteen and just found out recently that you’re in love with him. “
 Pan grumbled some more.
 “ Panny!  Oh fine have it your way.  Just remember you’re here the WHOLE night.  I’ll get you later. “ Bra snickered.
 After blowing the bangs out of her face, Pan picked up her bag and followed Bra into Capsule Corp.  All of the sudden Bra shrieked.
 “ Bra?  Daijoubu? “
 “ Kami-sama!  I just remembered! We’re supposed to go on that cruise in two days! “
 “ Nani?  Two days?  You said we still had more than a week! “
 “ Iie.  We leave Sunday.  I knew there was a reason why I bought all these bikini’s. “
 Pan shook her head and put her hand over her eyes.
 “ Bra! How can you forget?  I better get home early and start packing.“
 “ Don’t worry Panny!  We still have tomorrow to pack.  Come on, let’s go upstairs and start with my things.  Then tomorrow we’ll go to your house, and I’ll help you. “

 “ Son Goten here. “
 “ Oi Goten!  You busy tonight? “
 “ Nah, mom can handle the restaurant for one night. “
 “ I’ll come by at five then.  I gotta finish up some paperwork. Ja. “
 “ Yeah me too.  Laters.”
 Son Goten walked out of his office to look for his mother Chi Chi.  Goten was the second son of Son Goku and Chi Chi and the little brother of Son Gohan.  Goten has an uncanny resemblance to his father.  From the wild, black hair to the childish face to the quiet, innocent personality.  Like his father, Goten acts incredibly naive and stupid sometimes.  However, when engaged in combat, both pick up techniques quickly and are very intelligent.
 “ Kassan? “
 “ Hmm Goten? “
 “ Trunks is gonna pick me up later, I haven’t seen him for a week, can you handle closing up without me? “
 “ Of course I can!  Did you finish up the deal to open up Chi Chi’s overseas? “
 “ Not yet, I’ll finish it up now. I’ll be down at five. “
 “Ok Goten-chan.”
*°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°º°*
 Trunks pushed back the curtain a little to look out the life size window in his office.
 { I wish I was out there.  With this job, I never have time to think about anything.  I don’t know what I want anymore.  I thought being a good fighter, family, friends and money was what I wanted.  Now that I have all that, how come I feel so bored and tired?  I guess I don’t have everything I want after all.  Something’s missing.  Someone actually.  The woman in my life.  When I was with Marron, I thought I was gonna marry her, but after two years, I couldn’t see her as my wife anymore.  Hell I can’t see anyone as my wife.  I don’t wanna get married, but I do wanna  find the woman that’ll drive me crazy.  Someone that I can’t live without. }
 “ Sir, it’s four ‘o clock
 “ Oh thanks Akane have a nice weekend.  Sayonara. “
 “ Arigato.  See you on Monday sir.”
 When his secretary left, Trunks walked over to his closet.  Him and Goten decided to keep extra clothes in both their offices in case they got bored and wanted to sneak out and meet each other in the middle of work.
After changing his clothes Trunks looked at his reflection.  He inherited his average height, soft lavender hair,  and lavender eyebrows from his mother Bulma.  Aside from that, Trunks basically looked like his father Vegeta.  He had a tanned, well-defined, muscular build and a strong, chiseled, fierce face with a high forehead.  His mushroom cut delicately fell over his temple, stopping right above his fervent blue eyes.  Trunks could credit both his parents for the intensity of his eyes.  On the surface, the icy blue color can be seen, a trait provided by Bulma.  Looking deeper, bits of Vegeta’s ebony eyes would emerge.
           { It feels good to be in my regular clothes.  I hate wearing suits, it feels too stuffy. }  Trunks gave his reflection a final smirk of approval and headed out to pick up Goten.
 “ Kobanwa Chi Chi-san is Goten around? “
 “ He’s up in his office finishing up some contracts.  Why don’t you go up and
see him? “
 “ Arigato. “
 Trunks walked up the stairs to Goten’s office.  He opened the door to find Goten in front of a mirror dressed in his normal clothing.
 “ Yo you ready? “
 “ Aa.  Where are we going? “
 “ I dunno, how about clubbin’? “
 “ Nah, I just broke up with Marron remember?  I don’t feel up to getting a new girl yet. “
 “ Yet, give it an hour and you’ll be beggin’ to go clubbin’. “ Trunks scoffed.
 “ No man I’m serious.  Being with Marron made me think about stuff.  Was it like that for you too? “
 “ Aa.  Marron’s a great girl, feminine, gorgeous and sweet, but she just. . .  I dunno how to describe it, but being with her made me realize all the time I’m wastin’ wit’ all these women.  I just go out wit’ anyone that looks good to me.  The more I think about it, the more I see that they don’t interest me. “
 “ Yeah.  Marron’s a special girl, but I feel like the whole year I went out wit’ her, it was just one long date. She’s not the one for me“
 Trunks grunted.
 “ Kuso.  We better find the right women soon man.  I hate this feeling.  Let’s go over to Capsule Corp tonight.  I haven’t seen my sister and father in a week. Meen Bow Toe is probably there too. Heh.  I miss teasin’ her. “
 “ Alright.  I haven’t seen any of them in a month.  Work’s been crazy lately with these new deals.  Messin’ wit’ Bra and Meen Bow Toe was always fun. “
