PROLOGUE

A young man was standing in front of a strange machine. The only ones who knew what it was and what it did was his family. He and his mother were preparing it for a journey. One that felt like he'd been planning for a long time but really it had only been three months. The machine he was standing in front of looked just like the time machine and it worked similar to the time machine, but wasn't a time machine. The machine in front of him had been designed to travel to parallel universes. One universe in particular, the universe he'd been responsible in creating. He'd warned his family of the past about the awaiting doom that befell his world. He'd done that in order to give the alternate version of his family a chance to live even though it wouldn't change what happened in his own timeline. The course of their history in the other timeline had been changed a lot from his own; he wanted to know if it had been for better or for worse. In the back of his mind it was always telling him that the changes he made to the universe was for the worse, that he should've let things be.

"Relax Trunks" his mum smiled.

He looked up at the mother in overalls, her grey streaked hair tied back loosely. He loved his mother more than anything in the world. She gave him hope when he thought there was none. Gave him a chance to see his older brother again, meet his father and sister in the other timeline.

"Everything will be fine. You'll get there and find out that everything had changed for the better. I bet they've missed you just as much as you missed them." She opened her arms for one last hug before he left. He wouldn't be gone for too long. "And even if everything didn't turn out how you wanted, I know my friends and family they will be grateful that you gave them a chance. Let's go, I want to meet the other me."

"Mum, I don't think it's a good idea." Trunks tried talking his determined mother out of coming with him. "It might not be safe. The danger may be worse than the androids."

But no matter how much reasoning he did for her to stay behind; his mother was a determined woman. Once she had her mind set to something, there was no changing her mind.

The last minute checks were completed and Trunks and his mother put in the coordinates for the dimension where the events of Cell happened.

It was over in a matter of seconds. The only indicator was that they'd even gone anywhere was the slightly different surroundings. They arrived exactly where they left, in the garden of Capsule Corporation. Trunks and Bulma just stood for a moment, taking in the scenery. The main building was perfect, without a large hole in the centre. Mother and son comparing the differences between the two dimensions. The sound of a thriving city was music to their ears. Completely different to the sounds of a recovering city.

They weren't alone in the garden from long. The first person to arrive was actually surprising for the teenager and his mother. His father Vegeta came out nursing two girls.

"Not you again!" His father exclaimed looking at the former time traveller. "What's going to kill us this time!"

"Considering how different our two timelines are these days I wouldn't be able to warn you about your future even if I wanted to." Trunks replied. "It's good to see you again father, you're looking well."

His father grunted, both girls in his father's arms were looking at him with curious eyes.

"Daddy, he looks like big brother." The girl with the same colour hair as his mother spoke first. "And the lady looks like mummy except old."

"This is my mother." Trunks introduced his mother to his alternate version father.

"You haven't changed much looks wise." Bulma commented. "Have to say personality wise your very different from my Vegeta.

Once again Vegeta grunted.

The two dimension travellers followed him inside. His father never said to follow him, but he never told him to leave either. His mother was looking happier then he'd seen her in a long time. He was glad that she hadn't been hurt while travelling to the past since the trip had improved her moral greatly. They hadn't even been in the timeline for five minutes yet.

Just before they got to the living area his father started calling out "Woman!" in a loud booming tone. The girls were both touching Vegeta's hair and pulling at his ears, and he was letting them. It was amusing to watch. The last time he'd been in this timeline he watched his father dealing with the younger version of himself and Vegeta hadn't tolerated young Trunks pulling his hair. The contrast between his father then and his father now was hard to believe he was even the same person. Trunks couldn't wait to find out who the young girls were. He wanted to know if they were both his sisters, or possibly even nieces. He doubted his father would put up with a strangers child.

His mother smiled happily as his father shouted out for the other her. Before long his other mother stormed out. She was wearing overalls like his mother. Looks wise she was different then his mother, her hair was a lot shorter, didn't have grey streaks through it and she also didn't have the wrinkles his own mother had. The androids had really aged his mother a lot more then he originally though. He watched with a smile as his mother yelled at his father for interrupting her work without a good reason. She hadn't yet noticed the former time traveller and his dimension travelling mother. When Bulma finally noticed them her mood did a one-eighty.

"It's good to see you again mother" he smiled at his alternative mother.

"Trunks" the woman shouted out, and pulled him into a hug.

She chatted with him a bit, asking him how he was. Commenting on how much he'd apparently changed. Fussing over him in general. His own mother laughing at the interaction between himself and his alternate mother. The two Bulma's then had a short conversation between themselves before calling the rest of the family, so they could see everyone.

"Gohan's at work. He's going to be a while, but will be here first chance he gets."

Vegeta smirked. "How about I take you to get your sister while waiting."

Vegeta didn't even allow Trunks time to reply before he teleported them both to planet Fruiche.

"Instant transmission." Bulma told her other self.

Before long the whole family had been gathered. Fruiche was looking well, and had grown a lot since he'd last been in this timeline. Her gender was slightly hard to tell while she was wearing the saiyan armour. Gohan was a lot different than his Gohan, one of the girls was his. A daughter named Pan with a girl Videl. The other girl was his sister Bra. He'd been surprised to meet Goten. The boy a year younger than his alternate self was unexpected. He made a note to ask who Goten was since he looked like a miniature Goku. He and his alternate self were a lot more different then he'd been expecting.

"Since your future has already been changed, and Trunks and myself technically aren't from the future, how would you all like to hear about the androids." His mother asked.

"I thought I'd have to squeeze every little detail from you." The other Bulma replied. "I've been wanting to know for years. If you didn't come here yourselves, I was planning to visit and get the answers myself. Just that having grandchildren and children got in the way."

"Well it all started ..." Bulma began. Trunks listening intently as well since not even he'd heard all the details about the early days with the androids.
