Chaos-ken...Times 20! By Super_Gotenks_4
Prologue - Earth, late 790's -
Peace...
Planet Earth has not heard of or seen peace for the previous few months, thanks to the overwhelming presence of a being known as Majin Buu. Not even the Earth itself could withstand his incredible power. But with the help of Earth's Special Forces, the Z-fighters, and even the Earthlings themselves, Majin Buu was vanquished for good.
It is now over a decade since the Majin Buu era, and the event has been pretty much forgotten. Son Goku has gone on a training trip with Ubuu, who has shown much potential at the recent Tenkaichi Budoukai. Prince Vegeta of the Saiyans continues doing what he does, training, striving to be the strongest fighter in the universe. Son Gohan, 1st son of Goku and Chi-Chi, teaches at a university in West Capitol. His wife, Videl, settles down a bit, after having their child, Son Pan. Krillin and 18 have also settled into a quiet life, raising their daughter, Marron. The other Z-fighters, Tenshinhan and Yamcha, have not been heard from since the last Tenkaichi Budoukai.
Trunks Vegeta Briefs, son of Vegeta and Bulma, and Son Goten, 2nd son of Goku and Chi-Chi, both like to hang around the capitol a lot, trying to court girls, and doing other things teenagers do. When they're not in the city, they are out in the country, sparring against each other. Neither side wins, as they seem to be keeping up with each other in strength and speed.
One day, they are sitting atop a plateau overlooking the sea. They are resting after a few rounds of sparring.
"Man, don't you think these matches are getting a bit old? We're equals..." Goten says offhand. "Yeah, I guess these are getting boring. I wanna get away from this place for a while. I wanna see some new places." Trunks said. His eyes were slightly glazed over, as if daydreaming. "Hey, snap out of it Trunks! You're freaking me out!" "Well, wouldn't you like to get away yourself?" Trunks asked. Goten stared at the sea below for a few seconds. "You know, to be honest, I wouldn't mind. I'd like to see new worlds, like my father did after Namek." "Heh, so he finally told you that story?" "Yeah, it was cool. Turning Super Saiyan after losing a best friend...."
That being said, Goten trailed off. He lay on the grass, hands behind his head. *That's not cool at all.* Goten frowned inwardly. Minutes later Goten fell asleep. Trunks soon followed suit.
All of a sudden, the sky darkened. Or part of it did. The line that appeared formed into a black hole of sorts, acting like a vacuum. The wind began to gust intensely. The two half-Saiyans were pulled up from the ground and they were sucked into the hole...
Chapter 1 - Realization - Earth, 1997 - Tokyo, Japan - Nerima Ward
There was one thing Ranma hated about Sunday. Pure boredom. This Sunday was especially boring because Genma and Soun had stayed out late last night, drinking the whole time. Akane was out of the house for the morning, because of a drama club meeting. Nabiki had her business major to think about, and Kasumi was out at Dr. Tofu's clinic.
Yep, Ranma was alone. One of the few times he has to himself, it can be soothing. But if you're Ranma, you gotta do something. He was full of energy, and he had to let it out. He decided the only thing he could do as of now was to train. So into the dojo he went.
- A Forest, on the Outskirts of Tokyo -
Goten stirred, sensing a change in his surroundings. *I don't sense anyone I know around here. This doesn't feel right...*
He was snapped from his thoughts when Trunks suddenly fell on top of Goten. "YOW! Goten!" Trunks exclaimed. He quickly rolled off Goten's body. "Are you alright?" "Yeah. It's strange, I don't sense any of our family around here. Weren't we on a grass field a moment ago..." Goten trailed off as he looked around. They were surrounded by trees. "Hey Goten, are you sure we didn't go anywhere after the field?" Trunks asked. "Yeah, I remember I fell asleep..." "Oh yeah...well, let's get out of here and find a city or something. This place can't be all woods, can it?" "I guess not." Goten said, a bit worried.
Sensing ki energies to the north, they took to the skies, toward the ki. Hopefully they would find some clues as to where and when they were.
- Original Time - *Strange, not only did my son's energy just disappear, but also Kakarotto's little brat's.* Vegeta idly thought to himself, as he searched for the lost energies. Just then, Son Goku phased just outside Vegeta's gravity room. Vegeta immediately knew what Goku was thinking...and not sensing. Vegeta nodded in Goku's direction as they met outside the gravity room.
"So you sense them missing also..."Goku said. Worry was evident in his eyes. Bulma Briefs all of a sudden called them into the Capsule Corporation building.
"Hey guys, did you see the skies a few seconds ago?" Bulma asked as they sat down at the dinner table. "Now that you mention it...the skies did darken suddenly as I sent Ubuu off to his family." Goku recalled. Vegeta remained silent, waiting for Bulma to continue.
- Lost Time - Goten and Trunks landed a half mile or so from the town they saw, as they didn't want any unwanted attention. They walked along the side of a road the rest of the way. They reached a sign that read in a language they understood: Welcome to Nerima. *Nerima?* Both Goten and Trunks thought, confused. "Heh, think we're in another world?", Goten asked. "More like, another Earth...", Trunks replied.
Ranma sat in meditation on the dojo floor. He could sense something was out of the ordinary, but he put it on the back burner for the time being. He had quiet time, and decided to use it.
But the nagging feeling in the back of his neck...there's something out there. He could sense the energy. What was good was that he could sense no bad intentions...their ki signatures showed that. He would let them come to him. He wasn't about to make a big deal of it...except maybe to Cologne. *She senses these things better than I do.* Ranma thought.
"Tadaima!" A female voice rang out. Ranma was snapped out of his reverie, and he jumped up to greet Kasumi, arms full of groceries. "Let me help with that." Ranma took the bags and placed them on the counter. "So how was your day?" Ranma asked Kasumi. She had her normal cheerfulness about her. "Oh, nothing out of the ordinary. Dr. Tofu being his silly old self." She giggled at that. Ranma sweatdropped. "Eh...that's cool, Kasumi."
"You feel that, Goten?" Trunks asked. He sensed a higher energy than normal. "Yeah, this person is definitely stronger than Mr. Satan. I'm sure of it." Goten replied. He smiled, now that he knew that there were some strong people in this world. Of course, they could never compare to the two half- Saiyan teens.
- Capsule Corp., Original Time -
"There was a rip in the time/space continuum.", Bulma sweatdropped as Goku immediately became confused, and Vegeta became irritated. "Uh...", Goku held his right hand behind his head as he tried to comprehend Bulma's theory. "What she means, Kakarotto, is that our sons have been pulled into another dimension.", Vegeta tried to make it as clear as possible. It worked, as Goku soon took on a serious facade. "Got an idea on how we're gonna get them back home?", Goku asked Bulma. "Unless another rip occurs in the continuum, we don't have the ability create rips in time. I could set up satellites to monitor the area. I could give you all warning indicators, so you can respond immediately." The two Saiyans nodded. "But how do we know if we will go to the right time and place?", Vegeta inquired. "That's the whole problem.", Bulma replied. "It's impossible to know if you will be led to the right time and place. Just hope luck is on your side." Goku thought of the one solution that he could think of. "Bulma, can the Eternal Dragon help out in any way?" "That is one question you'll have to ask Dende or Piccolo.", Bulma answered. Realization hit as they remembered who created the new set of Dragonballs. "Ok. Bulma, how about getting started on the satellites. I'll go up to the Lookout and consult Dende." "If my presence is required, Kakarotto, you know where to find me.", Vegeta said, as he walked toward the gravity room.

"What are these readings I'm getting?" A wild red-headed scientist examined the readings on her screens. "I'm gonna have to look into this..." "Washu! Dinner!" "Coming, Sasami!"
