Once a Rebel…Always a Rebel

Goku yawned a tiny bit as he followed King Kai along Grand Kai's planet, he'd never seen so many people before, not this many great fighters at least.

"So Goku, this is Olibu, he's a fighter from earth, like you. He has many legends, cartoons, and even a few action figures after him," King Kai explained proud of the warrior. Though he couldn't help but notice that most of these warriors were men. By now a group of warriors that King Kai had trained had gathered around the Saiyan from earth and were chattering loudly. Though this time, King Kai was silent and seemed to be looking for someone in specific in the crowd.

"Where's Rebel?" King Kai asked one of the other warriors, who merely shrugged at him.

"Right here," a small voice said, almost right behind Goku. He turned around and blinked as a small child's face greeted him, she had piercing black eyes and straight black hair with purple streaks in it. Her gaze was narrowed, as she looked him over then floated upright with her arms crossed over her chest in mock disappointment.

"So…you're a Saiyan?" she asked him. Goku blinked a few times then merely nodded his head. The girl looked to be about 5 or 6 years old, how could she have managed to get up to Grand Kai's planet? He'd thought only great warriors got up here with their bodies, but she was a mere child.

"Great!" she said happily and landed on her feet looking up at him, "I'm not alone anymore" she said, that was when Goku noticed the furry tail wrap around the girl's waist.

"You're a Saiyan too?!" Goku said a bit loudly in disbelief, causing the Saiyan child to cover her sensitive ears.

"Yes. That's Rebel, or that's what we all call her. She's a Saiyan that was destroyed by Frieza trying to save her parents, and for that matter, the planet," Olibu explained, "though, she almost beat him until he transformed," Olibu finished. Goku nodded anyone who could get even close to defeating Frieza must be strong.

"You're the only other Saiyan to ever come here…but then I suppose, you're not really a Saiyan like everyone else was," Rebel said looking up at the new arrival.

"Uh no, I'm not. Actually I was sent to earth as a baby and hit my head…so I didn't find out about that for quite some time," Goku said kneeling to look at the child. The child grinned, one so much like his own it was rather scary. He supposed it couldn't be too bad, but why, if she had been killed so long ago was she still in the body of a child? He supposed because you didn't age in the other world that it would affect children too.

Meanwhile…in the future

"I'm home mom!" Trunks yelled as he entered the kitchen in the small Capsule Corporation building. He heard a banging in the workshop and figured his mother was in there, as usual, and couldn't hear him. Nothing that wasn't normal around the building, not since the destruction of the Androids and Cell anyway. Life was very slowly getting back to normal, the world was being rebuilt, one step at a time, and the two of them were doing as much as they could to help. Currently his mother was working on a ship, so they could travel to the new Planet Namek and get Dende, so he could become guardian of earth and create new dragon balls, as he had in the other time line.

Trunks' senses flared suddenly as he picked up a very odd source of energy, it felt like the energy given off by Shenlong, the eternal dragon in the other time. He turned on his feet and blinked, his eyes going wide, what he saw was confusing. Energy was gathering in front of him, and a form was slowly forming within that energy. How was this possible, there were no dragon balls, no one to make the wish on them, and no dragon, so what was happening? He blinked again as the figure forming in the energy solidified into the form of a young woman, a year or maybe two younger looking than he was, but she didn't stay upright for long, and she collapsed unconscious onto the ground.

He was startled, but only for a short while as he looked at this girl, her clothing was strange, old Saiyan armor lay broken on her form. Though, she didn't look like any Saiyan he'd been told about, instead of black spiky hair, she had straight, shiny black hair with purple streaks through it. Needless, she was a Saiyan, the tail gave her away.

"Now who are you?" he asked as propped the limp body up against his arm and his one leg, she looked like she'd been in a pretty tough battle, but he'd not sensed any strong energy around the system. So this left the question on where she came from. He looked up to the sky, no sense of a dragon, then looked back to Capsule Corporation and frowned, looked like he would have to wait until the girl woke up before he got his answers. He sighed, he was as impatient as his father, a trait he'd apparently picked up from him when he'd gone back in time to help him and Goku fight the Androids, not the only trait he'd picked up from him, but one his mother seemed to dislike very much.
