Dragon Ball - The Next Generation Z featuring Uub, Bura, Marron, Goten, Pan and Trunks. If there ever was a spin-off series base on them, I will call it ‘West Cap City’ or something along the lines. Since Dragon Ball is the Goku show.

The second annual DB Next Gen Week is just around the corner, and we're excited to see what new creative works and talent 2019 rakes in!
This year we're doing things a bit differently. Instead of a set of prompts per day, we're dedicating a day to each of the six kids, thus we're extended the week by adding one more day (the 13th).
Like last time, any medium - from art to fic to analysis - is accepted and encouraged. We only ask that it’s content specifically made or updated in honor of this week. We’ll be reblogging posts tagged with #DBnextgenweek2019!
Days:
Monday 8th - Trunks
Tuesday 9th - Marron
Wednesday 10th - Pan
Thursday 11th - Uub
Friday 12th - Bulla/Bra
Saturday 13th - Goten
“Canon” is flexible when it comes to the DB world, so content based and inspired by DB Super, DBGT, movies/specials, the games, or your own headcanons are more than acceptable!
A few quick guidelines:
Must be SFW
The Kids can be any age, but any romantic depictions must have the youngest be 18+ if there’s a massive age gap (check the [FAQ] for specific ships)
No character or ship-bashing is allowed
Disrespect to any of the content creators and their work will get you immediately blocked
For further information, check out the FAQs [here], or submit an ask to @breezytealy, @meztliel or @dbzebra if you don't find an answer to your inquiry.
i made a trunks doodle dump! ft Pan & Uub ‘helping’ with training, long haired Trunks, some super saiyans of varying degree, a design for a saiyan symbol necklace i think a Trunks raised by Vegeta might wear (cause Mirai is covered in CC logos), and his very own variation of a badman shirt!
i utterly refuse to draw main timeline trunks with middle parted hair
OMG all those prompts scream Marten (and Trunks xD) to me!! Wouldn't you like to try to use them all in the same story? No? :P If not, “Hold my hand before I stab you with it." please? xD This is how prompts work right? I'm lost...
Title: “Regaining My Wings”
Words: 2410
Pairing: Marten (Goten x Marron)
A/N: Here is my submission for Marron Day for @dbnextgenweek !! I’m so sorry it’s so late! I was rusty from not writing in so long. I had to rewrite this like four times until I had something I actually liked lol.
This just a super fluffy self indulgent oneshot like all the rest, but please enjoy! I may post on AO3 later
Flight, also known as the ‘bukujutsu’ technique. Many years ago,it was an extremely advanced martial arts technique that only a select few ofmartial arts masters knew.
Those days however were long gone. Even Son Goku’s owngranddaughter, Pan, learned to fly when she was just a little baby.
Flying had become just as easy as walking for the Z Fighters.
Except if you were like Marron and afraid of anything to do withheights, including flying.
Marron never used to be afraid. Not even the slightest. When Marron was achild, she’d be the first one to want to go higher and higher when she wouldride on the Flying Nimbus when on adventures with her two best friends, Gotenand Trunks.
However, one incident when she was about nine years old changedthat.
Marron was happily sitting on the Nimbus with Goten in front ofher, peering over and looking at the amazing sights. The rolling mountains werebeautiful that high up. Oceans seemed never ending. It was simply breathtakingfor an adventurous child.
But then, when she leaned further down to get a better look at apretty bird flying by, Marron accidentally slipped off the fluffy yellow cloudand plummeted towards the Earth.
Marron screamed and covered her face with her hands,sobbing, until she suddenly stopped. After realizing what had happened, shewiped her eyes and opened them to see Goten smiling down at her. He had jumpedoff of Nimbus and caught her. She was shaking and really freaked out, butotherwise was fine.
But since that day Marron off heights (and ever learning how tofly) for good.
Krillin and 18 tried to help her get over her fear a dozen times,but being as stubborn as she was, Marron wouldn’t even consider it for years.Every time she even looked over from somewhere high up, her legs would turn tojelly and her heart would jump into her throat like the time she actually didfall.
The only time she slightly budged was after she and Goten starteddating. Marron would only go on Nimbus if she could sit on his lap and cling tohim for dear life while keeping her eyes shut, not opening them until theylanded. Of course, she still didn’t know how to fly and had no plans to learneither. But it made her so happy.
Goten was always so supportive with her. He never once held itagainst her for being scared and always comforted her. No matter what, Marronfelt the safest flying with him. Besides that stupid adorable smile of his thatalways made her heart do flips, that’s what she loved most about him.
One time however, he (and Marron) were close to falling straightthrough the Nimbus because he almost got a bit too comfy withMarron sitting on his lap. It wasn’t his fault though! What else could he thinkabout when she always looked so pretty and smelled so nice? At least that’swhat he told himself.
That was almost five months ago.
It was another beautiful spring day; perfect for being outside. Marronand Goten were having a picnic date on the grass near the Son family home. Theyweren’t able to see each all week due to Marron’s cheerleading and Goten’sskipping class to train, so a weekend date was just what they both needed.
Marron wore a frilly, light-blue colored sundress and a straw sunhat. She looked absolutely gorgeous. Goten had on his signature ‘Son’ t shirtand jeans. He wanted to dress more formally but Marron insisted he was perfectjust the way he was.
The young couple had just finished eating, and were laying back onthe picnic blanket, snuggled together as they watched the clouds.
Marron pointed out different shapes. Some were little animals, andone even looked like Piccolo. The others however, were just not at all what shewas saying.
“What do mean a bear in a top hat? That’s clearly a monkey at a buffet!”
Marron sat up and stared at him. Of course that dork would seefood. “You know you’re wrong, right?”
“If by wrong, you mean right, then yes!” Goten fired back, hislips curling into his signature wide grin. “That’s clearly a monkey. See? He’sgot a tail. I’ll give you the top hat though.”
Marron giggled and playfully punched his arm before lying backdown besides him.
These peaceful days really were great. They hoped it would neverend.
Just then, Goku appeared using Instant Transmission with littlePan on his shoulders. They had just returned from the grocery store. Goten and Marron both shot up.
“Oh, hey Goten! Hi Marron! Am I interrupting?”
Marron shook her head and bowed her head. “Of course not! T-Thankyou for having me!”
“Ahh it’s nothin’! You’re like family to us.”
At the sight of her uncle, the toddler practically lunged off ofGoku’s shoulders towards Goten, tackling him into a hug.
Goten laughed and caught Pan. “Hey squirt!” He grinnedand ruffled Pan’s hair making the girl giggle.
“Me and Grandpa are gonna go flyin’ later! Do you wants tocome?” Aunt Marron, you can come too!“ Pan chirped. Ever since she learnedto fly, she would always go out for 'flying adwentures’ as she would say.
Marron frowned. She didn’t want to hold him back just because shecouldn’t fly… "Goten, it’s okay, go ahead.”
Goten only turned back to her and winked. “Panny, I’d love tobut Mare and I have plans.”
Pan just stared up at him with wide-eyed curiosity. “You meanlike kissy-kissy?” She said and then erupted into giggles and ran to Gokuwho had a teasing grin as wide as hers.
“Did you tell her to say that?!”
Goku only grinned. “Well, is she right?”
No that’s… that’s not it at all!” Goten replied back.Was he seriously arguing with a three year old?
“Then why are you blushing?” Goku said, grinning.
Traitor! His father was normally on his side!
“Sheesh! It’s been a year you guys, when are you gonna stopteasing me?”
“The wedding~” Chi-Chi’s voice came from the upperbalcony. She was taking dried clothes off the hanger to be put away. She giggledat her son’s flustered reaction. Honestly, she loved teasing her three boys. Goten got even more easily emabarrassed than Gohan did at his age.
“Very funny.” He replied back and turned back to Marron,who was hiding her cute face from embarrassment. Her blush went from ear toear. Although it was embarrassing, she loved it. Marron gushed at the thoughtof getting married. She recalled the days when they would play house back inthe old days. Goten really had no clue, but just played along.
Goku then jumped two stories onto their upper deck, startling hiswife a bit. Goku winked at her and started helping her put away the laundrywhile Panny chased a butterfly on the grass below.
“Now’s our chance.” Goten flipped onto his feet and pulledMarron up by the hand.
She couldn’t help but blush. What was he doing so suddenly?!“G-Goten, h-hold on a second! W-Where are we going?!”
“Nowhere far! C'mon!” Goten (quite literally) swept hisgirlfriend off of her feet and into his arms and ran down the road. Marron’s hat blew off her head and fell onto the blanket as Pan trotted over to it.
Chi-Chi and Goku exchanged similar grins with each other as theirson fled and Pan giggled from below, now wearing the hat.
Goten and Marron came to a nearby clearing with a huge lake. Hegently put Marron down, and she adjusted her dress.
“What’s the big idea?”
Marron was blushing fromthe close contact but shook it off and gazed out onto the lake. It really was beautiful. She held her hands behind her back and stared over the lake. The crystal-clear water glistened in the sunlight. Her long silky blonde hair blew in the slight breeze, tickling Goten’s nose.
“Dad used to take me here to go fishing all the time when Iwas little. Now we all go with Panny.” She heard him say. Goten inhaledand took a deep breath. “I’m feeling up for a swim! You in?”
Just then he felt a tug on the back of his shirt. ”…Hey,Goten…“
"What’s wrong?”
Marron looked away from him slightly, her ears burning. This wasit. She’d have to get over her fear sooner or later, and this would be theperfect time! “…I want to learn…” It came out as a tiny whisper,but she said it. And it felt good.
“Huh?”
“I want to learn. Teach me how to fly! I’m… I’m sick ofbeing scared! I want to go flying with you! And go out on Nimbus with you andactually have my eyes open for once! I promise I won’t hold you back anymore!”She said, fighting tears at that last part.
Goten took a step closer and brought his girlfriend into a hug,smiling warmly down at her. "Mare, it’s okay.” He gently pushed astrand of hair away from her face. “You’ve never held me back and younever will. Nothing will change that. I’ll gladly teach you. I’m honored thatyou asked me.”
"I love you, you big dork…” Marron replied, restingher head against his chest.
“I love you too.” Goten grinned and held her closer.
Marron looked down at her feet and then back up at him.“…But what if… what if I fall?” He could just hear it in hervoice. She was petrified of falling again.
“You won’t fall. I’ll be right here. You have the skill,Mare. It’s there, I know it is. You just have to stop doubting yourself. Youcan do this.”
Marron’s heart fluttered. Just like always, he knew just what tosay. She leaned up onto her tip-toes and softly kissed his lips. “You’reso sweet…”
She knew the basics of Ki and how to fight, just didn’t care forfighting. It was boring to her. She always preferred watching fights,especially from the World Tournament. The adrenaline she got from watchingfights far exceeded what she would get from something like sparring. And plus,she loved supporting her Goten in his fights.
“How did you do it so quickly? You were so young!”
Goten shrugged. “It just came easy to me, I guess. I alreadyknew all about ki, plus being half Saiyan really helps.”
Gohan had taught Goten when he was just seven years old. Beingcalled a 'super pedestrian’, whatever the heck that was, was the last straw!
After he learned that hopping and flying were in fact different,it came easy to him and soon enough…
“Birdy, a birdy, Goten is a birdy!” Little Goten sang tohimself as he flew around in figure-eight patterns high in the sky.
Goten grinned and put his hands behind his head. “Yup. Thosewere the days!”
“Personally, I think you were much cuter back then.”Marron winked at him while saying that.
“Hey! I’ll have you know I’m still very handsome!” Gotenwhined, cracking a grin.
Marron rolled her eyes with a smile and stepped away. After a moment, Marron took a deep breath andfaced him again.
“Ok. I’m ready.” Marron said. “But only on onecondition.”
“What’s that?”
“…Hold my hand.”
Goten smiled. “Is that all?
“Yes! I’m scared! So you…y-you’d better hold my handbefore… I- I stab you with it…!” Marron said, pouting up at him. Itwas obvious she just made up the first thing that came to her mind. “Orelse…”
Or else? Goten chuckled at that. He couldn’t help it when she gotall pouty and blushy like that. Especially when she’d 'threaten’ him. Usuallywith no more kisses, but he knew she’d break before he did. She always lookedso cute when she got like that.
“Of course, Here.” He held both hands out for her, notbeing able to help laughing a bit.
“…I’m serious, Goten! Don’t you dare laugh at me! Y-You’dbetter not let go either! Or… or I’ll never forgive you!” Marron said,her voice almost a squeak. She looked like she was about to cry, but it was stillso cute.
Goten leaned down and kissed Marron on the forehead, his fingersstill gently entwined with hers. “You’re too cute.”
Marron’s face turned an even brighter red. She looked like atomato. “You dummy, be serious…”
“I promise. You’re safe with me.”
“I… I don’t know if I cando it…“
"You can do it. Just look at me, okay? Focus on me. Remember,just relax. Feel your energy from within and slowly bring it out beneath you.You can do this. I’m right here.”
Marron heart fluttered at his words. They were soothing. Shetightly shut her eyes and focused. After a moment she could feel her feet liftoff the ground and she grips his hands tighter. Goten floated up with her. Itwas relaxing, freeing almost. She felt weightless as if gravity no longer hadan effect on her.
“You’re doing it, Mare! You’re flying!” Marron openedher eyes to see that she and Goten were floating about ten feet in the air. Sheyelped and buried her face into his chest, her eyes tightly shut again.“It’s too high, …I-I can’t…”
“But you already are. All by yourself. There’s nothing to beafraid of.” She heard him tenderly say. “You’re doing it!” Gotengently said. “Want to try moving now?”
Marron slowly nodded. She repositioned herself horizontally andslowly moved around. It appeared as if she was swimming through the air as shelightly kicked her feet. Goten guided her.
She started out pretty wobbly, and didn’t keep her eyes off Goten,but she was flying all by herself. Actually flying! And not falling! “I’m doingit!” She cried happily. When she was up there with him, her fears were allgone.
“See? Now you’re a little birdy too.” He grinned as warmas the sun gleaming behind him. She’d be a natural in no time. He was so proudof her.
Marron was almost brought to tears. Her beautiful blue eyes turnedglossy as he just grinned. She sniffled and wiped her eyes with her free handand flew at him into a deep kiss. They stayed up there for what felt like aneternity, both not wanting to move.
