Last chapter to this story. I know that Chibi-Trunks always acts all cool but if you've watched „Wrath of the dragon" you also know how emotional he can get and how bad he wants a brother. Anyways thanks for reading, and if you read this please review :). And what do you think of Tama because I know it's always risky to put a selfmade character into a story (frankly I don't like it myself in most stories).
Mirai-Trunks was marching through the white sand of the hotels private beach, he wore a black tanktop and black shorts. The sun was already down but he finally found Tama. She was sitting on the ground near where the dark oceans' waves crashed. The pale moonlight danced on her skin and let the black sea sparkle.
Her long hair was waving in the wind and she wore the cool white dress with purple polka dots that Chibi-Trunks had picked out for her.
„Hey", Mirai-Trunks said shyly.
She glanced up at him, then her look wandered back over the sea.
„Hey come sit down", she replied softly gesturing to the spot next to her.
Mirai-Trunks sat down leaving a little distance between them, he didn't really know how to start, but he wanted to tell her the whole truth. He had it all prepared, but at the moment all words were just running trough his heads so quickly, leaving him totally dizzy. And the biggest problem was: will he believe him?
In times of advanced technology a time-machine didn't seem that impossible right?.
He was about to say something but Tama was faster.
„So what was that all about? Why did you lie to me? If you are really Bulma's son ,were you afraid I would only like you for the money? Because that's not true my parents have enough money their-selves. And how can you be her son I never heard of you before in the media or something.", she inquired.
„Look Tama I am her son, but I'm not her son", Mirai-Trunks stated, realizing how stupid that just sounded the moment the words had left his mouth.
„Wow what a fascinating conversation", the young woman interjected.
„Please let me explain it to you. Gohan's girlfriend is the daughter of Mr. Satan you know?".
„Of course I know him, he saved the world from Cell!",
Mirai-Trunks picked up a handful of sand and clenched his fist.
„Well that's were it all started. My mother is Bulma Briefs and I'm from an alternate timeline, where the Androids took over control. My mother built a timemachine back then so I could warn our counterparts in this reality. So I'm the little boy who won the tournament today just from alternate future. With my warning Gohan was able to defeat Cell. And I came back to warn them again but they had already taken care of that."
Tamas eyes narrowed. „You know that's pretty hard to believe right? But I also know that your mother and grandfather are absolute geniuses. And it would also explain your and Trunk's strong resemblance. You know what? I believe you! But why wouldn't you tell me?", she asked as she ran her hand through her hair.
„Because I have to go back soon and I didn't want to hurt you".
She shifted closer and stroke his lavender hair."That's really sweet of you, but I'm not a child I can make my own decisions. And I believe in living in the moment. So if now is all we got why not seize this time? You know the only way of missing the game is to exclude yourself from it."
She leaned over to kiss him. Mirai-Trunks closed his eyes and approached her, the wind blew her strawberry blonde hair into his face, it smelled like cinnamon. Waves crashed as their lips finally met.
„She was right about every single thing she said, why not take this time and make it perfect", Mirai-Trunks thought as he tasted her sweet lips.
A little away from them they were watched by two pairs of eyes.
The Chibis were hiding behind a rock and had watched the whole scenario.
The two boys were laughing up their sleeves, this was going much better than they had expected.
„Ok Trunks, now that we know everything went fine we should go, give them some privacy.
„Shush Goten, I want to be 100 per cent sure this works, you know maybe she really convinces him in moving here!", Trunks whispered and nudged Goten in the side.
„So you're not mad?" Mirai-Trunks asked soft spoken.
„Did I just make the impression I'm mad Trunks?", the girl smiled at him.
Although they only knew each other for days Trunks felt a strong connection to her, like the whole meaning of his journey wasn't to warn his friends about Majin Buu, but to meet her.
The thought of leaving her again soon just bothered him, even tough he had just agreed to live in the moment.
„You know, maybe I can visit..." he suggested.
„I'll wait", she whispered in response and took his hand and held it against her cheek.
Mirai-Trunks pulled her closer and kissed her once more.
„Ok I think now we can go Goten", Chibi-Trunks said satisfied with how everything had turned out
The last few days went by quickly, and with no bigger problems, but now it was time to go home.
Tama who stayed a little longer drove the group to the airport.
Bulma tossed the Capsule that held the private jet. „Look back one last time guys", she smiled.
„So I guess we have to say goodbye now", Mirai-Trunks said softly to the girl who stole his heart in just two weeks.
„What do you mean good-bye?", Chibi-Trunks interjected pulling his older counterpart's arm.
„Chibi you know I have to go back to my timeline, ergo I probably won't see her for a long time", Mirai-Trunks explained."
„But I thought you guys made up? And that you want to stay with her, that you stay here and be my big bother, this is not how I planned it, what do you think I spoke to her for!", the young boy peered up at him with some kind of panic in his eyes. He thought everything was fine and now there wasn't enough time to fix it.
Suddenly Mirai-Trunks realized that Tama wasn't the only one who waned him to stay.
„Oh munchkin" ,he sighed „ I promised you I'd visit or did you already forget our yubikiri?"
„I just hope you won't forget", the lavender haired boy muttered.
Goten placed his hand on Chibi-Trunks' shoulder. „Don't worry Trunks I'll always be your brother!", he smiled in attempt to cheer his friend up.
Trunks hugged his best friend and partner in crime, „Thanks Goten"
„This whole touchy-feely talk makes me wanna barf, they get this from your side woman", Vegeta snorted.
„Thankfully they're not as emotionally maladjusted like you!", Bulma hissed back.
Mirai-Trunks ignored his father's comment and turned to Tama.
He placed his hands on her hips and pulled her closer. „Goody bye, see you soon" he whispered and kissed her gently.
„See you then" she responded and placed two of her fingers on his lips.
„Bye" she whispered.
„And take care of yourself", Mirai-Trunks winked at her.
„Don't worry I have an handsome little man right here, in case you won't come back!", she winked an ruffled Chibi-Trunks' hair.
The young boy blushed and looked away shyly.
„I was just kidding but maybe I can visit you and we can play together", the young woman suggested
„That'd be awesome!", Chibi-Trunks exclaimed and hugged her goodbye.
She kissed him on the cheek then the group boarded the plane.
Mirai-Trunks looked over his shoulder to see her one last time, trying to memorize her face as good as possible.
„Always nice to be home!", Bulma exclaimed as she entered Capsule Corp.'s family room.
The whole group collapsed on the big couch.
„I'll go then too", Mirai-Trunks informed the group and stood up, but he was held back by a hand that grabbed his sleeve.
„No Trunks stay here for the night, Goku you and your family too, we are all tired from the long flight. You guys stay here and tomorrow all bright eyed and bushy tailed we can say goodbye.", the blue haired scientist suggested.
Chibi-Trunks was lying in his bed starring at the ceiling, Goten laid next to him as always when he slept over. He could tell his older friend was bothered by something so he tried to approach the topic carefully.
„What's wrong Trunks? Are you sad our plan didn't work out?
Trunks just grunted in response.
„If you want to we can come up with another plan", the spiky haired boy went on.
„It's too late Goten", Trunks muttered and turned away from his friend.
Goten propped himself up on his elbows and gazed at his friend who now was lying with his back to him.
„I know what you feel like..."
„You don't Goten, you have Gohan and you dad who are all supportive and emotive. I have no brother I can turn to or who plays with me, yeah sure there's my dad but all he does all day is training, and I like doing that with him but I also want a male role who I can come to with my problems, like Gohan will always be there for you. So don't tell me you know!"
Goten intensely pressed his lips together as he thought about his friend's words.
„Did you forget my dad was dead when I was born and I didn't get to meet him until like half a year ago?" Goten reminded Trunks.
Trunks sat up and looked at his friend. „You're right, sorry Goten", he sighed and collapsed on the bed again.
„That's ok Trunks! We've both been through it You know friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies! Um well at least if we don't fuse", the younger boy replied with a goofily grin.
„How poetic Goten. But thank you for always cheering me up my friend."
„So Trunks what else did you learn while training with him!"
„Oh I have to show you sometime Goten I learned this awesome move called „burning attack". It's a pretty strong ki-blast and you do various moves with your arms it looks totally cool! "
„Cool! You have to show me!", Goten exclaimed.
„ I'll show you next time we play together! But I'm pretty tired now Goten so good night, and thanks again!".
„Goody night", Goten chirped and rolled over.
Trunks closed his eyes and tried to get some sleep, the saddest part would be tomorrow when he had to tell Mirai-Trunks good-bye and also Goten would've left and he'd be all alone again.
The was rising over the Western-Capital enveloping the dooms of Capsule Corp. into light.
The whole group had gathered in the Company's courtyard to tell Mirai-Trunks good-bye, almost everyone.
„Good-bye sweetheart and take care of your mother!", Bulma said and kissed him on the cheek.
„Don't worry mom, I will", he responded and hugged her.
„Oh and don't forget to visit", the blue haired woman insisted.
„Of course, I mean I got plenty of reasons now to come back right?", the youth winked at his mother's counterpart.
Vegeta walked up on him and placed his hand on his shoulder. „Goody-bye son, next time we'll have to have a little spar!"
„I'd like that dad. And take good care of the Chibi will ya?", Mirai-Trunks answered, then he turned to the Son family and bowed respectfully.
„Good bye friends I hope to see you all soon. Gohan you and I should hang out sometimes again, and Goten next time I'll also do a little training with you ok?", he winked at the youngest child.
„That'd be great", the young boy piped and hugged him.
„ So polite and yet his younger counterpart is so mischievous", Chichi muttered.
„Speaking of the Chibi, where is he, I want to say good-bye!?", Mirai-Trunks inquired.
„He's still in his room, when I asked him to come down with me he muttered something I didn't understand, I figured it would be best just to leave him alone", Goten informed.
„Ok thanks Goten, but I think I'll go check", Mirai-Trunks answered and entered the building again.
Chibi-Trunks was still lying on his bed when his older counterpart entered the room.
„Hey munchkin don't you wanna say good bye?", the youth asked and sat down on the bed.
Chibi-Trunks thought the best thing would just be to remove himself from the situation, so he wouldn't get too upset about, and no one would see him cry.
He just grunted but didn't give Mirai-Trunks any answer.
„Look I know you're upset about me leaving, but that's how things are supposed to be I can't just move to an other reality, my mom's waiting for me at home, and she has no one. As much as I'd like to stay with you and Tama it's just not possible."
Chibi-Trunks peered up at him, he tried not to blink because if he did the tears that had gathered in his eyes would come out and his older counterpart would see him crying, absolutely unacceptable for a Saiyan. He tried to say something but the constant sobs he was having were preventing him from speaking.
He turned away and buried his face in his pillow.
„Hey, I'll be back ,you don't need to cry munchkin, but if you want to you should know it's ok for Saiyans to cry.", Mirai-Trunks said softly and patted his back.
„But you're like the perfect big brother, I had everything planned I don't want to be alone. If you stayed here we could play together and go to the amusement park with Tama. Of course dad takes me sometimes but I don't think he enjoys it.".
Mirai-Trunks picked his chibi-self up and sat him down on his lap.
„We will do all these things when I get back okay? And until then you can play with Goten, mom , grandma , or grandpa. And if you're a good boy the time I'm not here I'll take any ride you want with you at the amusement park. Promise!", he said and raised his hand for a pinky-swear again.
Chibi-Trunks peered up at him. He sniffed back his snot and entwined pinkies with his older counterpart. „Deal!", he said.
The pair made their way down to the courtyard again where the time-machine was already set up.
Mirai-Trunks kneeled down and hugged his younger self.
„Good bye munchkin see you soon" he said softly.
Chibi-Trunks wrapped his arms around him tightly „Goodbye, and come back soon!", he insisted.
Mirai-Trunks stood up and boarded the time-machine.
As the glass shield went down he waved the group goody bye and with a bright flash he was gone.
Goten put his arm around his best friend. „Are you ok Trunks?"
„Yes Goten it's gonna be fine, he'll come back. Let's go inside and plan our little trip", he smirked at his friend.
At least they won't get bored until then.
