The Traveler Chapter 3
By: Eris
Author's Note: I'm back! Sorry it took me so long to post this chapter. I have been busy, so I haven't had a chance to write it. Forgive me. I will also try to bring more romance in these next chapters. I know the first two didn't have any romance in them so I will try to do better. Please review it makes me feel loved. ~_^
Disclaimer: Blah, blah, blah. I don't own Dragonball or Sliders. Blah, blah, blah, if you are reading this then you know who does. If you want to sue me go ahead. I only have a pocket full of lint. Anyway! On with the fan fic!

One other thing. Just for future reference. Trunks is 21, Briana is 20, Bra is 13, Goten is 18 and Pan is 12. I don't care if these ages fit with the real story line. They fit with mine so I am using them! Also this '' indicates thought and this "" indicates talking.

Briana gulped and looked at Bulma. 'Should I tell her the truth?' Briana thought. She quickly decided against it. She knew that Bulma would not understand. "I was out for a walk. I got lost and then last thing that I remember was falling and the world going black."

Before Bulma could ask her another question there was a loud crash in another part of the house. "Woman!" came a loud shout.

Bulma sighed. "I'll be back in a moment with some soup for you. Vegeta probably broke the gravity machine again."

Briana nodded. As she did pain ripped through her body. She moaned and rubbed the back of her head. Bulma gave Briana a concerned look and left the room.

Trunks stood up and walked over to the bed. He sat down beside Briana. "Are you sure that you are okay?"

Briana nodded. "I'm fine. Believe me I have had much worse."

Trunks laughed. Briana felt her heart begin to race as he did. 'No! This can't be happening! You can't fall for him. It would ruin everything!' Briana thought to herself. 'You are to busy to even think of falling in love, so stop it!'

"I have one question for you, where did you get all of the stuff in your backpack?" Trunks asked snapping Briana out of her thoughts.

"You went through my things?" Briana asked a little angry.

Trunks nodded. "I didn't take anything. I was just looking for something that would have told me who you are. It only confused me more though."

Briana shook her head. As she did, Briana began to feel sleepy. "Ask me again in a few days. I'll try to explain everything. I doubt that you will believe me though." Briana replied. "Right now. I am going back to sleep."

Briana slipped back under the covers and closed her eyes. Trunks quickly got off of the bed. He tucked the covers around her and gently touched Briana's cheek. "Sweet dreams." he whispered.

A few weeks later, Briana was well enough to walk around the house. So after she was able to walk. Briana decided to see exactly how much damage her fall did to all of her things.

Briana sat down on the floor of Trunk's room. She pulled her pack out from under the bed. Briana opened her pack and began taking her thing out. Checking that each item was intact. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the Crystal Tokyo Snow Globe was not broken. "Thank you Lord that this isn't broken!" she said out loud.

Briana then pulled out two electronic devices. Her compos and another device, the compos was in fine working condition. The other device was not. Briana let out a groan as she looked at the device. "No!"

"My mom should be able to fix it what ever it is." Trunks said suddenly, almost causing Briana to drop the device.

Briana looked up at Trunks from the floor. "I don't think that she would be able to fix this."

"What is it?"

"Nothing important."

Trunks sat down beside Briana. "It must be important if you are this worried about it."

Briana didn't reply. She just looked at the device. Wishing that the wires that were sticking out of it would magically go back into it. "Does it have anything to do with why all of that stuff was in your backpack?"

Briana sighed. "Yes it does. It is the only way that I can ever return home."

"What do you mean?"

"Incase you haven't figured it out yet. I am not from this world." Briana began.

"So you are a space alien, right?" Trunks asked.

Briana shook her head. "I'm not form space. I am human. I'm just not from this world."

"I still don't understand."

"I am from earth just from a different dimension. I use this device," Briana explained as she held up the device. "Which is called a timer. To travel or slide, from dimension to dimension."

Trunks stared down at the floor for a few moments. "Why?"

"I travel for two reasons. One is to explore other worlds. To discover new places that even I could not imagine. The second reason...is ever since I was a child. I have never felt as if I belonged anywhere. I hope one day to find a place where I can belong to do."

"What's your world like? Is it like mine?"

Briana laughed. "I wish my world was like this! It would be heaven if it were! My world used to be motivated by industry that they have destroyed most of the Earth. The only way that humans are now able to survive is to live underground. I was born and raised underground. In fact, I had never had never seen the sun until I slid for the first time."

"You have got to be kidding me!"

Briana shook her head. "No. It still amazes me today."

"What are the worlds like that you have been to? How different are they?"

Briana thought a moment. She reached in her backpack and pulled out the book How to pilot your own Gundum and the snow globe. "The worlds are so different. On my world there are cartoon shows, which tell the stories about certain heroes. I have been to worlds that these shows are real."

Trunks' eyes got large. "Impossible!"

"I'm telling you the truth!"

Trunks took the timer from Briana. "So because this thing is broke, you can't leave here right?" Trunks asked trying to hide the excitement in his voice.

Briana nodded sadly. "Unless I can find all of the components that I need. I will be."

"Would that be such a bad thing? You said that here was heaven for you. Why don't you stay here? I could get you a job at Capsule Core. You could stay here or buy a place for you to live at when you save up enough money.

"Or if you don't want to do that. Then you can stay here until you are able to fix your timer. I am sure that you would be able to find what you need. If you can't then it wouldn't be to hard to make it in the lab."

Briana looked at Trunks and smiled. "You aren't going to give up are you?"

Trunks shook his head. "I get my stubbornness from my father."

Briana laughed at this comment. 'She has the most beautiful smile and laugh." Trunks thought to himself.

"All right, fine. I'll take a job a Capsule Corp. As long as you promise me one thing."

"What's that?"

"You will teach me to fly before I leave."
