Cocky, cool-mannered, and caring. Hard to bring a hero like that down. But one moment with a crazy fangirl plunges him into uncharted territory, and Sonic comes face-to-face with a reality that sends him reeling. Now, his choices can be detrimental to his future. Is it freedom or friends? Changes or chilidogs? A coming-of-age fic.

After freeing the future from the Androids and Cell, Trunks realizes that he won't be able to protect the Earth all on his own. As he begins his search to create the next generation of Z Fighters, Trunks and his continuously expanding group find themselves fighting powerful foes while defending the Earth. Will the New Z Fighters survive? Pan/Trunks on the side.

This takes place during the time of Future Trunks. Instead of Vegeta dying at the hands of the Androids, it's Bulma who meets her fate. Vegeta wakes up prior to the Android Invasion to find himself the only one who made it alive. What will happen to Vegeta now? Where is his infant son, Trunks, in all of this?
