-AGE 850: Unknown Timeline-

In what felt like an eternity later, I slowly open my eyes as I feel my feet land on a surface.

"Where...am I?"

I look around to observe the area I just appeared in. I was standing in front of a small grassy plain area and the sky was...pitch black? It's not even the afternoon yet… or was it?

Feeling an unknown presence behind me, I turn around to look behind me and when I look up, I see a MASSIVE green dragon with red eyes hovering above the area, looking down at ME.

"What the- A dragon?!" Those were the only words to come out of my mouth during that moment. I don

"Farewell."

After saying a quick goodbye, the dragon disappears and as he does, I see 7 shining orbs float up from the pedestal on the altar far from me rise into the air and scatter to different locations.

Ok, so to review: big shiny dragon, 7 orbs…
...it took me 3 seconds to realize what I just saw.

"Those...were the Dragon Balls...and that was the Eternal Dragon Shenron. So, if the legend of the Dragon Balls were true, then that would only mean-"

Before I could completely connect the dots on everything, I heard footsteps and look to my side.

A lavender-haired teen, wearing a black coat and carrying a sword was walking towards me. I didn't know what to expect so when he got close enough, I got into a defensive position.

"You're surprised, I'm sure." The unknown person finally spoke, "Don't worry, I'll have to explain it all to you later. For now," The teen then draws out his sword and points it at me, "...let's see how much power you have!"

Gripping his sword with both of his hand and releasing a powerful yell, he lunges towards me and slashes his sword at me. Thanks to my reflexes, I dodged the first slash and jump back at the second. The unknown teen puts his sword up and gets into the fighting position and says...

"Come at me anytime!"

Opening
"The Biggest Fight" by Hironobu Kageyama

(Cue 'The Biggest Fight', search [Dragon Ball Final Bout – Intro (no sound effects)] on YouTube)

(0:00 – 0:05) The scene opens to Amber standing under a spotlight with her eyes closed. The viewer then zooms in on her face where she opens her eyes.

(0:05 – 0:19) The scene then changes to within the Time Nest as Amber, Scarlet, Saito, and Kira are preparing for battle and as they finish, Trunks walks up to Amber and gives her a Time Scroll, prompting her friends to place their hands on her as they all close their eyes as the scroll starts to teleport them, causing the scene to fade into white and show the main title.

(0:19 – 0:31) Amber, in her school uniform, is flying above Satan City by herself. She then hears something that causes her to look back, seeing Scarlet, Saito, and Kira come up from behind her and to her side, greeting her in their usual fashions before all four power up and speed off.

(0:31 – 0:43) The scene changes to within the Time Vault as the Supreme Kai of Time gives a two peace sighs until Toki-Toki lands on her head, annoying her before switching to the three districts of Toki-Toki City and showing the next three Time Patrollers, starting with the Namekian Tsuma giving a thumbs-up in the Industrial Sector, following with the Frost Demon Kozer folding his arms and giving a frown in the Plaza of Time, and ending with Trunks giving a nod and smile towards the viewer within the Time Machine Station before turning around in shock as the sky suddenly turns dark.

(0:43 – 0:55) A Time Vortex in the sky opens and the scene zooms in on who comes out of it: the evil scientist, Towa, smirking devilishly, and beside her was her creation, Mira, glaring down towards Trunks. The scene then changes to within the Crack of Time as an unknown figure with a bone staff smirks and points his staff to the view, making it glow red and making the scene fade into red.

(0:55 – 1:07) The scene then changes to Amber and her friends facing off against an army of Villainous Mode versions Saibamen, Frieza Soldiers, and Cell Jr's, switching to the heroes rushing into battle. The viewer then sees Kira and Saito fight together, performing a synchronized team attack on some Frieza Soldiers before they both end it with a dual Explosive Demon Wave.

(1:07 – 1:16) The scene then shows Tsuma using a Milky Cannon on a group of Cell Jr's, obliterating them before switching to Kozer shooting a barrage of ki blasts at some Saibamen before finishing them off with a Death Wave.

(1:16 – 1:32) The viewer zooms out as Amber stands on top of a rock formation with Scarlet and Trunks at her sides as they prepare to face off against Towa and Mira as well as the unknown figure behind them. The view shifts to Goku then arriving through Instant Transmission right in front of them, looking back to Amber with a smirk and a nod as she gives a nod back. As the group of four transforms into Super Saiyans, Scarlet and Trunks rushes off to fight the enemy and then the view goes around Goku and Amber as they both perform the arm movements of the Original Kamehameha ( the same Kamehameha Kid Goku used at the end of The Path to Power ), eventually firing their Kamehameha waves at the viewer, making the screen fade into white.

Episode 1 - Introduction Arc:

Welcome to Toki-Toki City!
Trunks of the Time Patrol

"All right, if that's how you wanna play it…!"

After saying that and getting into a fighting stance, I charged towards him and easily punched him in his chest, continuing my assault with more punches, ending off with three powerful kicks to his chest that sent him back through the air. He easily stopped himself with a midair backflip, not even looking the slightest fazed.

I couldn't help but look a bit shocked though. "You can manipulate your ki?" I asked, tilting my head a bit. The nameless teen smirked as he replied, "Of course. Not just me, but every martial artist within this place has full knowledge of ki manipulation."

"Is that so?" I didn't need a mirror to see the competitive smirk appearing on my face. "Well then, I guess that means I don't have to conceal most of my power." As I said that, I let out a shout as I begin to charge up my ki to about 25% of my full power.

This guy was obviously stronger than me as his calm demeanor was basically screaming at me, but I didn't want to go up to max and destroy the area. Besides, this was just a spar, so I wanted to keep things at a steady paste… unless he wanted me to go full on.

"My turn." With that said, he then charged towards me and start throwing punches at me, making me retaliate with strong kicks in an attempt to deflect them but the very punches he was using was easily getting through my attempts to deflect his attack. I brought my arms up in an X-fashion to guard his attacks, but that was when he sent a ki-infused punch into my guard, breaking right through it and making me stagger back.

Seeing this as his chance to attack, the teen then sent a barrage of powerful kicks into my stomach and sides until he kicked me straight up into the air. I was basically out of wind during that but I was about to quickly stop myself in midair, taking a moment to catch my breath. I looked back down towards the teen, seeing how he was calmly standing there just looking up at me with that smirk on his face.

I couldn't but grunt in frustration. It's almost like he's mentally screwing with me or something! And this rate, this spar was quickly turning into a competition.

"Looks like the little warm-up is complete." He then said as he brings slightly up to his sides and lets out a shout as a blue aura appears around him. I felt his energy signature rise as he quickly charged up his Ki. The look of shock reappeared on my face as his power was basically becoming almost impossible to match! Just how strong WAS this guy?!

That was when he said, "Now, it's about time you showed me your full strength."

With that, he held out his hand and points it in my direction, charging what looked like a blue energy sphere. I figured that he was about to shot an energy wave towards me, so I then started to get myself out of the way. Unfortunately for me, that wasn't the case.

Out of his hand comes a full-on barrage of energy spheres. Because it caught me off-guard, I ended up taking most of the blasts while I was only able to dodge a good few. He wasn't finished as the blasts kept coming, but this time, I was able to keep myself on the run as I flew away from the incoming blasts.

I studied his assault as I kept moving. From the look of it, the stance he's in has left him completely open to a melee attack. Rushing him would be pretty risky, but that's a risk I have to take. Deciding to just go for it, I then charge towards him, powering myself up as I did so I could deflect and guard against his incoming blasts.

My theory was proving correct as he remained in that position to keep blasting.

Now's my chance!

I shoot an energy sphere towards the ground in front of him, causing a dust cloud to appear in front of him as I closed in on him, but I rush through the cloud itself and try to score a hit on his chest, I feel a hand stop my fist from connecting. As the dust quickly revealed my position, I saw that my fist was caught by his free hand while the hand he used to fire those blasts was positioned RIGHT in my face!

"O-Oh cra-"

I didn't get a chance to finish that as I was sent flying back with an invisible energy wave, crashing into the ground about a good distance from him. "O-Oww…" Those were the only words to escape my mouth as I picked myself back up, slowly dusting myself off, wincing in pain from the injuries I got before looking up towards the teen, who STILL had that smirk on his face.

For real, I get this guy is strong and everything, but the smirk on his face is basically saying that he's got this or something. Like he already beat me.

Oh, that's it. That is IT.
Stronger than me or not, this guy's about to get it.

I then let out a massive yell as I started to power up, making the very ground around me crumble as I started to push myself to my full power. I clearly saw the blue aura around himself becoming more and more violent to the point where it looked like I was covered in a huge blue flame.

I could even see the teen give a look of interest. At least the smirk was gone…

"You want my full power? YOU GOT IT!" As I said that, I slapped my hands together. When I slowly started to bring my hands apart, a red-orange fireball-like energy sphere appears between them.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention: During the time I was in practice mode with my ki techniques, I stumbled upon an old book within my mother's house, showing this fighting style I never heard about: The "Shakugan" Fighting Style, which focused on a mix of high-speed movements and powerful ki techniques. The one I was currently about to use is one of those techniques.

I bring the sphere over my head as I prepare to fire it. The teen gets ready to retaliate as he does a series of rapid hand movements before putting his hands towards me, with his and index fingers touching and forming a diamond shape in the middle. I could see a fireball-like energy sphere appear in front of his hands as well.

It was obvious that things weren't going to go anywhere if I tried to charge him after this. But maybe…I could catch him by surprise…

"Shakugan BURST!" Shouting the name of my ki technique, I shoot the energy sphere towards him, making him shoot his own energy sphere towards the blast, making both attacks clash and explode. With that, I sped towards him, making it look like I was about to flank him from the side. As he rose his arms up to guard, I use my Afterimage to quickly vanish… not before seeing the look of surprise on his face.

In the next moment, I reappeared at his far opposite side, one of my hands holding another red-orange energy sphere but this time, it wasn't a fireball.

"Shakugan WAVE!" The moment I said that I fired an energy wave towards him and he had only seconds to react. To my surprise, he did react. He took out his sword and spun it in front of himself to deflect the energy wave back towards me. I grunted as I used my other hand to grab the wave and toss it upward into the air, letting it explode in the sky above us.

Afterward, the teen slashed his sword to his side. Whoa...he's not bad at all.

With a smirk, he drops from his battle stance and throws his sword up as he walks towards me, "You're not half-bad. I mean you were all over the place, but in the end, you were chosen by Shenron." When he got close enough, he leaned over and the sword he threw up went directly back into its scabbard, "Sorry for just suddenly attacking you, by the way."

I drop my battle stance, taking a moment to catch my breath as I gave a small smirk myself, "No problem. You're not just blowing steam yourself." He was good, no doubt. As I said before, I could tell that what he fought me with was nowhere near his full power.

The teen gives a serious look, "Now, I'll introduce myself. My name is Trunks, and I'm currently on a mission." I nodded. So that was his name, Trunks. But wait, did he say "mission"? "Mission? What kind of mission?" I ask with a confused look.

"We'll get to that later but first things first. As you can see, this place is not the world you're familiar with. This is the Toki-Toki world, where the flow of time gathers. You can call us 'The Time Patrol'"

My mind was trying to process everything that was coming out of this guy's mouth. The 'flow of time'? The 'Time Patrol'? Was I in the middle of a prank show or something?

Trunks continued his explanation while I was still going around in my head, "When history goes off course, a false timeline is created. We work to correct any of these changes in history."

"Uh-huh…"
He obviously didn't sense the hint of disbelief in my voice.

"As Time Patrol members, we'll fight all throughout time, traveling to various important eras and to many historic events. Sometimes, we deal with legendary fighters or dangerous forces."

...I froze when he said "legendary fighters".
I just saw one legend disappear before my eyes.

So, if the Dragon Ball legend was real, does that mean….?!

I held up a hand to stop him and ask my question, "Hold on a sec. Quick question: One of these legendary fighters wouldn't happen to go by the name 'Son Goku' right?" Trunks gave a small look of surprise from my question, "O-Of course. But how do you know about him?"

I could feel my heart did a tap-dance. I KNEW it. Son Goku does exist. And I'll finally have the chance to meet him and see his past?! This is something I can't miss! I then answered Trunks' question, "Back where I come from, he and the Dragon Balls were considered legends but now that I know they both exist, it's almost overwhelming!"

Yeah, I was officially in fangirl mode right now.

Trunks couldn't help but give a smirk and then said," Well, would you like to test your power here? See how effective it is?"

That question caused me to stand there in my spot and think. I know how to use a sword and basic material arts as well as blasting ki blasts all over the place but now, I'm being asked to jump head first into a whole new world of danger. Will I even be powerful enough to help out…?

And alongside that…

"Oh right…"

Trunks caught my attention, "I should explain a few things first. Here in Toki-Toki City, there are 3 sectors: This one, the Field of Time, the Industrial Sector, which is through the portal behind you, and the Time Machine Station, which is through the portal behind me. Look around, throughout the city, there are many other Time Patrol Members. If you like, go ahead and meet some of them. I'll hear your answer once you had the chance."

I give a small nod and with that, Trunks then turns and walks off, headed towards a green temple like area with a portal. I turn to take a good look around. He wasn't kidding. There were other people in the area already. Some were Namekians and Majins like how they were back home.

Speaking of which, I can still remember what happened back home. The flood of memories is still fresh in my head…

"Damnit, no! AMBER!"

It's all still rewinding in my head like a VCR. The mysterious storm that appeared during our field trip to the World Martial Arts Tournament as well as that giant black hole that separated me from Scarlet, Saito, and Kira. After remembering that, I hope that they showed up here in Toki-Toki City. If not here, at least somewhere so I'll know that they're all right…

Getting the bad thoughts out of my head, I started exploring the city, hoping I could find someone to help me out with this whole Time Patrol thing. I eventually walked into the Industrial District of the city. The area had a bunch of capsule homes and shops with various Time Patrollers walking around the place. I'm guessing this is the 'neighborhood' of the place I guess.

I was so busy looking around in circles that I accidently bumped into someone, snapping me out of my thoughts and making look to see who it was…

"Hey, watch it! There are other guys on the walkway, you know."

The person turned around to look at me. Turns out he was a Namekian. A TALL one, at most. He was also wearing a green/white battle outfit with golden chains and red cape. I think the most notable thing I would say about this guy is the headwrap he's wearing with the shades on top. I held my hands up to my sides in defense, "I'm so sorry. I wasn't watching where I was going right there." The guy's attitude did a complete 180 the moment he saw me, a drop of sweat going down his face with a nervous smile, "Oh n-no no! It's fine! It's fine! Besides, I thought you did that on purpose! Sorry for snapping at you like that."

That was when the Namekian examined me from top to bottom, rubbing his chin, "Hmm. From the looks of you, you're a new one here, right?" I gave a small nod, making the guy put his hands on his hips and give a big smile, "Well, newbie, you've met the right person! I happen to be REAL strong Time Patroller, so strong I was able to beat down a couple of Saibaman with just an extended swing of my arm!"

"Uh-huh…" I just stood there with a dirty look on my face while he was so busy laughing to himself. Ok, I'm not getting on his grill or anything if that's what you're thinking. The guy's bravado is good and all but if he really is as strong as he says, I'm gonna need to see the capsule-car facts. I might actually get to see them if I actually get to decide to be here..."

Taking the dirty look off my face, I spoke up, "Well, I'll be grateful if you could help me out. I'm not actually a Time Patroller yet, I'm just thinking it over." The Namekian turned his attention back to me, stopping his laughing and boasting, "Oh? Is that right? Well, how about I give you an explanation of what it means to be a Time Patroller, then we'll see what you think from there. Lunch on me, on the house!"

"O-Oh no! You don't have to-" I was cut off by the loud growling of my stomach. I didn't need a mirror to know that I had a blush on my face. The main thing that confused me is that I ate what felt like a good hour ago. How long was I asleep back at the World Tournament Stage?

Ignoring the growling of my stomach, I answered, "Ok, you got yourself a deal." With a smirk, he extended his hand, "The name's Tsuma, by the way."

"My name is Amber. Amber Nakatomi, "I said to him, taking his hand and allowing a friendly handshake.

We went to a nearby food court in the Industrial District. Tsuma ordered himself a double cheeseburger with some chili cheese fries, stating it was his favorite meal, which was weird, considering Namekian only drink water from what I've seen. I, on the other hand, ordered about 4 BIG bowls of Miso Butter Udon Ramen for myself.

Tsuma, and I'm entirely sure whoever else that was in the court and the area around us, was watching me eat away on my first bowl. "W-Whoa, someone's got an iron stomach. You must have been real hungry when you got here.." Tsuma stated as I wolfed down what I had in my mouth, "Dude, you have NO idea…" Tsuma took a big bite out of his cheeseburger as I went back to eating my food.

Don't ask why I'm suddenly eating like this. I'm blaming Shenron for sending me here on an empty stomach or the rest of the guys for leaving me asleep for so long.

After I ate about 3 bowls and was on my last one, Tsuma spoke up again, "So, now that we got food in our stomachs, how about we right to it, huh?" After finishing up my last bowl, I calmly wiped my hands and face with a napkin before standing up from my seat with a nod, "Sure, lead the way."

With that, he and I walked into the Time Machine Station, which was the third big area of the city and where there were many Time Patrollers going to two different colored towers and others running to the time machines in front a huge Hercule statue. "This is the main area of Toki-Toki City, the Time Machine Station. Here, Time Patrollers would get their assignments from these sign-up stations and head for their assigned Time Machines to head to the distorted timeline they've been assigned to." Tsuma explained as we walked through the area, "We Time Patrollers defend the flow of time and guide it to its correct role when but when evildoers who try to distort history gains our attention, we need the power to fight back against them. That's why we train to become stronger. And if we're lucky enough, we could be trained by legendary fighters in history, but that's a rare occasion. So, what do you think?"

I was standing there with a look of confusion. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm slowly taking in the sights and everything the dude is saying here but the part I was confused about was the whole "trained by legendary fighters" part. "Hold on, hold on! You mean the fighters from the past can actually be here in the city to train others?! How is that even possible?"

Tsuma scratched his head, "To be honest, I'm not sure. I'm guessing they're brought here or something like that. That's always been a mystery to me." I just narrowed my eyes at him. Just exactly how long as he even been here? Surely he should know why.

At that moment, we heard cheering and the obnoxious screaming of females coming from the archways near the Hercule Statue. Curious on what was going on, Tsuma and I walked over to the scene. The crowds were thin so we could barely see what was going on.

"Oh great, it's him. I thought he wouldn't be back after a couple of hours" Tsuma said, scratching the back of his head with an annoyed look. I just gave him another look of confusion, "Wait, him? Him who?" Before Tsuma can answer my question, the crowd made way for the person they were cheering for, who was walking in our direction.

I'm guessing he was another species of alien because I never one like him back in my timeline. His head has horns with a red gemstone in the middle and was wearing white armor with spiky outlines of the same red gem with purple skin. His face had a purple outline under his eyes as well.

The unknown person walked up to us with a glare on his face. The crowd that surrounded the person was now surrounding him, along with me and Tsuma. "Hmmm, you're...a stranger? Are you the latest Time Patroller?" The unknown person spoke up.

Just from looking at the guy, I can tell that's not the friendly sort. "No, I'm not a Time Patroller. I'm just looking around the place while I'm thinking things over" I answer back, receiving some comments from the crowd. The unknown person continues to give me a glare, "If you're going to part of the Time Patrol, you have to be strong and willing. Do you really expect a greenhorn like yourself can do this? What makes you think you can be a part of the Time Patrol."

That was when Tsuma stepped in, "Hey, cut her some slack, Kozer! She just got here!"

"Kozer", huh? Such a nice name for a 'nice guy' like him. That was sarcasm, obviously.

Kozer crossed his arms, turning his attention to Tsuma, "And you've been here for a full month, yet it took you about two weeks to get past the missions of the second era. Unless you have the power to back up your attitude, I strongly suggest that you check it before I do it for you."

That left Tsuma speechless, making him back away. I couldn't help but scoff at that. Who in the hell does this guy think he is? Some sort of elite or something? This is no different from bullying if you ask me

Kozer turned his attention back to me, "As for you, Greenhorn, don't think your arrival here didn't go unnoticed. Just because Shenron summoned you here doesn't make you special. You're free to learn your place on the pecking order on your own but I'll give you one free piece of advice: stay out of my way and I'll stay out of yours."

That made me glare at him before saying, "Is all that supposed to scare me? As if!"

The crowd around us then started saying outside comments that I shrugged off. Kozer, on the other hand, gave me a simple "hmph" and walked past m- Oh no, I mean, elbowed me and walked past Tsuma as he made his way towards the Industrial District, leaving the crowd to disburse before those within it goes back to their usual routines. Tsuma looked over to me with a small look of shock…

"Whoa...did you really just stand up to Kozer?! To Kozer, of all people in Toki-Toki City!" I just looked at him with a risen eyebrow, "Ummm, yeah. And?" I replied,"I can care less what he thinks. To me, he's nothing but sour like lemons."

Tsuma slapped his hands on top of his head in complete disbelief, "Amber, he's one of the top-ranked Time Patrollers in Toki-Toki City! He's so strong that he completed most of the missions from the first 5 eras with flying color! He single-handily defeated 10 Time Patrollers in training with just a wave of his hand!"

The look on my face didn't change.

"OK, so the guy is strong and is supposed to be this big high and mighty elite. So? He might act all high and mighty and could easily intimidate everyone else around him, but unless I get to face off against him and see his power first hand, I'm not changing my opinion. Matter of fact, I'm calling his bluff right here and now." With that, I gave him a smirk. Call me crazy but I'm a crazy kind of girl… although Scarlet would have called the dude out right then and there if she were here. She's way crazier than me.

Tsuma just stood there, staring at me in complete shock before he grown a huge smile on his face, "Either you have lost your marbles completely or you got some serious courage… No matter how you slice it, I'm taking Door #2. You're more than ready to be a part of the Time Patrol with that kind of attitude!" I could help but scratch the back of my head as he said that, feeling a hint of nervousness wash over me as he praised me. "Wow, you really think so?" I asked him.

"As far as I can tell, I agree…"

Tsuma and I turned to the sudden voice and saw Trunks walking towards us. Tsuma gave a look of surprise at the sight of him, "T-T-Trunks?! No way!" I turned towards him,"Trunks? Did….you see all that?" He nodded, a smile on his face "I was actually coming to find you here but when I saw you staring down Kozer, I knew that you have a strong will and we could use such strong wills on the Time Patrol. Plus, I can tell from how you're still here that you're willing to join."

I thought for another good moment. I was already able to meet someone I can easily become acquainted with and I've seen that I could become stronger here. Maybe… I can also find out what happened to Scarlet, Saito, and Kira as well.

I then gave a nod with a determined look on my face, "Yeah I am...count me in! I'll do whatever it takes to defend history! You can count on it!" Trunks nodded, "Well then, Amber, welcome aboard and thank you very much! I wasn't worried because I wished for Shenron to bring me someone strong to fight with me, not just in body but in spirit too. I'm glad you decided to join us!" I gave a nod with a big smile on my face.

"Now that you're a member of the Time Patrol, I think it's time I'd shown you the main reason you've been called here. Meet me in the Field of Time." With that, Trunks walks back to the Field of Time. After he left, Tsuma puts his hand on my shoulder, making me turn to him, "Well, this is where we got to part ways for now. I got my own stuff to deal with and your work is about to begin. Good luck on your first mission." I gave Tsuma a high five before turning towards the portal to the Field of Time and looking back at him, "Thanks, Tsuma, and I'll see you later!" "Count on it, sister!" With that, he walks off, leaving me to make my way back to the Field of Time.

You could say that this is where everything truly began for me…
