Chapter 3: Explanations

It had been several hours since the last encounter with the androids for Trunks and Gohan. Both had been patched up by Bulma and were currently in medical beds waiting on the clear from the younger Saiyan's mother. Trunks had mostly healed, but the wound on Gohan's back was still bothering the man, but not as intense. Many thoughts were going through the mind of the elder make, thinking of how to tap into the mysterious power of Trunks.

'Man... His power is quite intense for his age. Probably stronger than I was at his age. He could have probably took his father when we arrived at Namek at his level.' Gohan thought as he stared at his new pupil and arose from the bed stretching his tense muscles.

"So... Uh... Trunks was it? You think you're healed yet?"

Trunks rose his head not even paying attention to Gohan moving, smiled and nodded. He too shot up from the bed and stood his ground, flexing, showing that he was indeed alright. Soon after he decided to feel his power and powered up just a little that blue aura covered his body.

"I feel slightly stronger. Must be my Saiyan Abilities... But yea I'm fine. Don't even hurt a bit."

Gohan nodded and sensed for surrounding power levels, trying to see if the androids were up to any action. Luckily he couldn't sense any energy sources dropping meaning no one was dying. It seemed as if the androids were killing less and less by the day. Maybe they were just bored, who knew.

"Alright good, we can get to training right away. But you need to know that what we are going to train in, is very serious. Once you're in, you're in. It will be tough I heard, but it will be worth it. Soon enough the androids will be just dust and nothing more of a fairy tale."

The Older male then smirked and rose his first in the air as he thought about a life without androids. Finally he could look at reconstructing the world and rebuilding the Z fighters. Outside of earth, the androids were not the only evil beings that like to destroy. Many villains will come in the near future to take over earth and Gohan and trunks won't be enough. There had to be more members.

It seems as if Gohan was in a different world, because during his whole thought process Bulma and Trunks were waving their hands in his face trying to get his attention. The lone warrior soon snapped out of it and focused on them at hand.

"Gohan! You finally hear us? Geez... All that fighting must have knocked a screw or two in that head of yours. How are you feeling anyways?"

"I'm fine... But that's not important. The important thing is, I need to borrow Trunks for 2 days and train him to defeat the androids once and for all."

As if on the second he finished, Bulma was about to yell no and give a long explanation, but Gohan had expected the answer and cut her off to continue.

"Trunks has a large amount of power hidden within him. Almost more than what I had when I was his age. Right now I can't defeat the androids alone and I need Trunks to help with my goal and end this nightmare once and for all."

After hearing the explanation Trunks's Saiyan's instincts started to boil as the thought of training with the Lone warrior and gaining a power more than he had now was exciting. Nothing could be better than to get stronger and help Gohan protect the people of earth. 'With this training, Could I obtain Super Saiyan?' He thought in awe before adding to Gohan's argument.

"I think Gohan's right. I'm tired of sitting around and watching helpless people die. I am a Saiyan and I have power that could be feared from these buckets of metal. Let me have two days a-"

This time trunks was cut off from Bulma as her anger started to rise.

"Will ya let me speak for once? First of all, after hearing your speeches I agree with this little training of yours-"

Trunks shot up in the air and started celebrating before the turquoise haired women continued once again.

"I'm not done! There is a cost. If this training does not work and you two fail, no more fighting for you Trunks. Secondly I had something to share with you. I am currently working on a project. A machine to send one person back in time, to any time period. I'm not done with it yet, probably take me another 3 months. Maybe we could fix the past and do something good with our lives."

This time Gohan pitched into the conversation and tried to end it so he could start the training as fast as he could.

"You mean a time machine right? Anyways, it would be always cool to go in the past to see everyone. Who knows maybe we could prevent everything that happens here? Anyways, Trunks let's get a move on time is not infinite."

With that Gohan moved to the window and flew outside waiting for his pupil. Bulma shook her head before hugging her son wishing him good luck for two days.

"You be careful. Who knows what he might put you through?"

"Ok, Ok! I get it I'm not small anymore, mom. I am a Super Saiyan!"

"That's what your dad was too but look where that got him. Just be careful ok?"

Trunks rolled his eyes before pushing away from his mom and moving toward the window to chase after Gohan.

"I will don't worry."

For what seemed minutes they both stood in midair, next to a large pole that to trunks looked like went for ever. Was their training in the sky? He asked himself before moving more closely to Gohan.

"What is this?"

"This pole leads to the secret of our training. This leads to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. One day out here equals to a year in there. We will spend two years in there training our hardest. By then you should be at my level or somewhere higher."

Trunks simple stood in awe thinking of how that was even possible. Why didn't the androids destroy that place in the first place?

"Shame on Dr. Gero for not commanding them to destroy the place. They just dug a hole in their own grave. Super Saiyan here I come!"

With that the younger Saiyan blasted off up in the air leaving Gohan to trail.
