survive the androids and not Trunks? Gohan is about to get quite a
surprise as to how his life is about to turn out.

Prologue Changes in History
He screamed his fury to the sky, the price for power far too high. They had started by killing the easy targets, the people native to the earth. He was unable to save them, being distracted by 18 for so long. Then they attacked Capsule Corp (CC), taking both Bulma's and Trunks' lives. That had been the final straw. The final push needed for Gohan to go over the edge and into the next level of power.
Reveling in his newfound power, Gohan soon destroyed the dreaded androids. Gohan then lay exhausted on the ground waiting for a death he realized would not come. He finally found the strength to get up, and he looked around the barren desert he had fought the two in. Stretching his senses, Gohan flew into the air and searched for signs of life. Face growing grim, he sped his search up, not caring about the loss in power. Finding no one, Gohan finally gave up his search, and flew to the remains of CC. The least he could do for his friends was give Bulma and Trunks a proper burial.
He soon arrived at CC and pushed aside the rubble. Quickly finding the bodies he searched for, he made two graves, and made them solid gravestones, so that they would forever be remembered though no one was alive to remember them. Gohan cried, and thought of his time with them. Trunks was a brother, almost a son to him, and Bulma had been a surrogate mother ever since Chi Chi had died.
Blindly making his way back inside CC, Gohan made his way to the labs, looking for a space ship or plans for one so he could get off the cursed planet he once called home. He found nothing until he reached the bottom lab. There, unfinished, was something Gohan hadn't realized Bulma had been working on, a time machine. Shaped like an egg with legs, the time machine could be Gohan's hope and salvation. Gohan wasted no time finding the plans and starting to work on the time machine.
Gohan worked on the thing night and day, stopping only to eat and sleep. He had one unplanned interruption when Cell, another android of Dr. Gero's decided to show up, demanding the whereabouts of 17 and 18 so he could become complete. Gohan made short work of him and got back to work quickly. After a few days, Gohan was done and started to charge the battery. As the battery charged, Gohan went out to the destroyed city to see if he could find some decent clothing and possibly some unspoiled food to take on the journey with him.
Gohan got back to CC with enough food for a few meals and some decent clothes. After capsulizing everything, Gohan unplugged the battery and got in the time machine. He started everything up and checked twice to make sure everything was working properly. Then punching in the time and place he wanted to go to, he started the machine. With a hum and golden glow, the time machine started up in the air and disappeared, and then things started to go wrong.
