The next day they're all on the move heading for Ash's next gym battle when a trainer challenges Trunks, being a son of Vegeta he couldn't back down, and with just his Snivy he kicks some serious ass, " Trunks, your dad must be something else. " Ash says.

Trunks smirks, " He likes to think he is, but even he has to bow down before my mom, she builds and maintains all his training equipment. "

Karla smirks, " Well, once we reach another stopping point you and I are doing some training, no way is she going to be allowed to think that I'm easy prey, she will pay for that cheap shot and then some. "

Trunks stares at her, " You do sound like my dad, I thought he was one of a kind. "

" Nah, we warriors exist all over, you just have to look to find us, though not many have gotten the opportunity that you have. You still need to catch more Pokémon, Trunks. " Karla quips.

Trunks smirks at her, " I know this and I fully intend to catch more, though I need to work with my Deerling and Ducklett some more, plus get to learn more about the personality quirks that Snivy has. I am not about to get caught off guard easily. "

Karla grins at him, " I think you'll fit in just fine here, Trunks. "

Back in Trunks home dimension Bulma is still going over the data she had collected from the battle site, it would take quite some doing to find what dimension her baby was in and she didn't dare use the Dragon Balls for this task, not after the whole Earth nearly being destroyed because the Dragon Balls didn't have enough down time. Though she was working on a way to increase the rate of the purification process of the Dragon Balls. If anyone could do it, then she would be the one to do so.

The blue haired lady just hoped she would have answers by the time her obnoxious Saiyan mate got home, that would at least mollify him enough that he wouldn't blow things up. She knew Trunks was in a different dimension caused by the collision of powers that occurred during his and Goten's battle. When Goten was well rested she was going to ask him for more details about the battle, in particular their opponent and hope that would give her the answers she needed to fully figure out what had happened and how to get her son home.

She sighs and wonders why she had to have a half-saiyan child that had too much of his father in him, though Bulla knew how to defend herself and would fight when it became necessary, she normally left the fighting to the guys and 18. Bulma was about ready to pull her hair out from her frustration with her lack of information and findings.

Normally she'd have her son to help her, but now she didn't, he was the one at the center of this spatial anomaly and she had to figure this out alone, though maybe she could get some information out of Dende, it was definitely worth a try, she'd have to have Gohan take her there with instant transmission after she talked more extensively with Goten about his part of the battle and their opponent. There were times she wished she had a normal family, but then she remembered that she loved all the excitement and wouldn't trade her life for anything, except maybe a husband that could do his own repairs.

Vegeta frustrated her on so many levels and yet she still loved him. Why, she didn't know, but her husband was someone she could cheerfully kill ninety-nine percent of the time. Why couldn't he have some of Goku's gentler nature, though he had mellowed a lot over the years, even taking Bulla shopping, which surprised her, but then again there were only two saiyan females, their daughter and Pan.

Pan being Gohan and Videl's daughter, hell, ChiChi and Videl could be considered Saiyan's with their personalities. She just hoped that Goten would find someone to marry that was not basically his mother. She sincerely hoped that he learned from his older brother's mistakes and didn't repeat them.
