Author's note: Hello everyone, this is NOT my first story, I have others I would love it if you read them, but about this story I assume you want to hear about! This is a what-if scenario(of course lmao) where Future Trunks learns of the super dragon balls before anyone else, finds them through his mom, Bulma. He then wishes to bring back Gohan(Majin buu etc all future battles havent happened yet besides of course Trunks did manage to beat 17,18 and cell.) ENJOY
SETTING: Destroyed future Earth
Trunks observing the carnage after finally defeating the androids.
"Man, why did this have to happen! Why did Gohan have to go to fight by himself?" Trunks said outloud to himself. Bulma walks outside observing him talking to himself "Trunks, Gohan wouldn't want you to act like that, its not like he died in vain!" Trunks looked at her with a strange glare " He still died, and I can't use the dragon balls to bring him back without Piccolo!"
(In another random spot in the world)
Zeno: Beerus, didn't you know there are super dragon balls? Beerus replied with a happy thought "What are these super dragon balls you speak of my lordship?" as he said quickly "They are a giant set of dragon balls stretched out between the 6th and the 7th universe they have unlimited power and can grant any wish you may desire." "I'm feeling bored, take me to watch you destroy planets!" "Y.. yes sir" Beerus then replied as they sped off. They destroyed a few planets until they reached one Beerus' angel, Whis, called Earth. He explained there lived a earthling who made a radar to detect normal dragon balls and they decided to go make her build one for the super dragon balls or they'd destroy the planet. As they set down in front of Bulma and Trunks as they talked, they realized the world was already pretty much destroyed. "W.. w.. who are you?" "I am the God Of Destruction Beerus, this is my instructor Whis, the great priest, and the strongest of all beings King Zeno." "Hiiii" King Zeno said with a funny expression, "I have been told you made a radar long ago capable of finding dragon balls Bulma." "Ye Y yes sir.. I have but they are not useful as Piccolo the namekian who kept them around is dead!" "Oh.. well that isn't the reason, there are a stronger set we were going to order you to make a radar for or I would destroy this miserable planet but it looks like someone already did that!" Beerus said laughing. Trunks looked at Beerus with a glimmer of hope saying "L l l Lord Beerus, if my mom makes you one of these radars for it will the dragon balls be strong enough to grant a tiny wish of ours as well?" Lord Zeno said "um yes it would I think, but it depends on what wish you are trying to make!" Trunks then explained what happened, King Zeno said it would be possible to wish Gohan back also, and Bulma then began to work on it after Beerus said that he will be back in a week's time to collect the radar, and they would begin hunting for the super dragon balls.
(Setting: Bulma's home)
Bulma hard at work looked at Trunks saying "Are we sure we can trust them?" Trunks then said "We don't have a choice I caught a glimpse of their power, i... it was so strong that I couldn't even understand it..." Bulma then looked at Trunks with a doomed expression "I... If we screw up its game over and we really cant do anything about it?" Trunks then with a sigh said "Yes.. I can only hope you manage to build the radar. "I am working hard on it, using technology I made the regular radar with, but I cant seem to make it work just yet I should have it soon though, get some rest Trunks you look exhausted!" Trunks then hugged Bulma, and went to sleep after trying for about an hour. Bulma continued to work on the radar making adjustments forming new parts out of scrap metal and more. She even learned new things while working on the radar to further her scientific advances. Throughout the night she stressed until about 5:00 am when she finally decided to also rest. Both Trunks and Bulma slept until 10:00 am. They Realized Beerus would be back Sunday, and Bulma immediately went back to work on the dragon radar after they ate breakfast and talked a little.
"How is the radar going?" Trunks said aloud after walking in from training outside. "It is slowly getting better, since the super dragon balls are stretched out between universes 6 and 7 we cannot get them ourselves, I can only make the radar detect them if even that." "Well Just remember what will happen if you cant make it detect them" Trunks said sadly. " I am going to go grab a snack, if you need any help just yell." Trunks said as he walked off into the kitchen Bulma looked at him then looked back down at the in-progress radar and continued to work.
Days past until it was finally Sunday, the day Lord Beerus returned for the radar! Bulma was putting finishing edits on the radar as Beerus landed on the under rebuilding planet Earth and headed into Bulma's home. "Well are you ready?" Beerus said as Bulma looked up with a different facial expression "I think its done the dragon balls do show up on the radar though there is no way my technology of spaceships can reach them!" "Don't worry about that I will go find them myself!" "Oh dear, this should be interesting" Whis popped off with his first line of the day. They sped off into outer space to find the dragon balls. Trunks began to train more to hopefully reach a new power level stronger than ever before to suprise Gohan when he is wished back!
End of Chapter 1
Sorry yes I know it was short, it will be longer as I present Beerus' hunt for the super dragon balls. Who knows? I might even throw a stop or two with Champa init. I should have chapter 2 out before the end of the week.
