Protologue
After fives years of hard work, the people of Earth have recovered from most of the damage and devastation left by the androids Seventeen and Eighteen. In West City with in the capsule corp building, Bulma is working on the modifications to her time machine in hopes to use it to travel to new worlds. To share both knowledge and history in hopes of bringing new ideas to both the her world and the worlds that will get visited.
"Alright! This should do it." Bulma exclaimed while moving away from the control panel of her new time machine.
"Mother, are you sure this is a good Idea?" Trunks asked from behind her."Of course it is! just image all the things that we could learn from the other worlds and how we could apply it to our own." Bulma said as she turned to look at her son.
"That's kind of what I'm afraid of, I know you said that the navigational computer won't take me to any world that has no breathable atmosphere. But I could end up any where couldn't I?" Trunks asked.
Bulma looked at her son with a smile and said " Hey now, where's you're pioneer spirit? You're gonna be the first person from our world to travel to a parallel universe where history is completely different from our own."
"I get that but what if something happens while I'm away?"
"Trunks sweetie you worry too much. With the androids gone there really isn't much to worried about and besides, the new communication systems I designed for this baby will allow us to keep in touch even from other worlds." Bulma explained as they both headed out of the time machines door.
"Sixteen what do the computers say about the power out put?" Bulma asked as she walked down the ramp and up the benevolent android.
"All power systems are running 100% efficiency. The time machine has more than enough power to make fifty consecutive trips." he answered from his computer terminal.
"Great! Dad how are things on your end?" Bulma turned and asked her father.
"Oh! They're good, Tama and I already identified quite a few versions of Earth that are suitable for mammal life forms." Dr. Briefs explained while Tama gave a lazy meow.
Turning to look back at her son, Bulma assured him. "See Trunks there is nothing worry about, and even if some monster decides to attack Sixteen here will take care of it!"
"Affirmative." Sixteen confirmed.
"Well, I guess there is nothing left to do but prepare for tomorrow?" Trunks asked while rubbing the back of his head with a chastised look.
"That's right! Now lets head upstairs and have something to eat. In fact let's celebrate, after all this is an amazing achievement if I do say myself." Bulma exclaimed.
" Good Idea! I'll head on up first and tell you're mother." Dr. Briefs said as he got up and headed out the door.
"It will be nice to celebrate this accomplishment." Sixteen agreed with a smile, as he got to up and followed after Dr Briefs.
"See Trunks, even Sixteen is up for this and you know out of all of us he worries most."
"I guess you're right mother."
"I'm always right!" She exclaimed with a confident look on her face.
"Really? Because the last three test didn't exactly go over that well." Trunks joked as they walked away.
"Hey now wise guy you know perfectly well that in science you have to take some risk to get to your desired results." Bulma said with her right hand on her hips as pointing a finger at her son.
"Hahahahaha," Trunks laughed at the pout on her face. "I think you mean mad science mother."
"You've really gotten cheeky since you returned from the past..."
The next day at two in the after noon, from the outside, the rooftop access to the Capsule Corp building opens up to show Bulma, Dr Briefs and android Sixteen working on their computer terminals making the last checks before the launch.
"All power systems are clear across the board." Sixteen informed while working at his terminal.
"The navigation computer is registering everything as green." "meow" Dr Briefs and Tama replied.
"Alright Trunks, take her out and prepare to launch!" Bulma said into her head set."Roger that, taking the time machine above Capsule Corp." Trunks responded.
As the time machine rose from the floor. Bulma dressed in an orange jump suit smiled as her son was about to head on a new adventure "Alright lets start the count down"
"Is that really necessary dear?" Dr. Briefs asked.
"of course it is dad!" Bulma responded with a huff.
Up in the sky the time machine started to glow with its familiar aura as the preparations where finally met.
"Commencing count down." Sixteen said to appease Bulma "5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Launch!".
As the bug like time machine disappeared into thin air Bulma screamed " It worked hahaha! I knew I was a genius but sometimes I even amaze myself. I just hopes Trunks remembers to contact us as soon as he arrives."
"Don't worry, Trunks smart young man I'm sure he will contact us as soon as he gets there."
