Later that day…
"So what does this village thing look like?" Pan asked as they began their small journey.
"After they destroyed all of the Tsufuran City, they started over by making the slaves build them a much bigger and more advanced one." She started and sighed. "Well, I try to avoid it as best as I can really. The last time I saw it was about 3 years ago, so it's probably has changed a lot. Not just Saiyans live there though, because they do universal trading and they like to sell and trade slaves. Most of the slaves are pretty nice, well, the ones that will talk anyway. Near the entrance is the housing sector, it is divided up into the slave quarters and then into the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd class housing. All the elite's quarters are in the palace, of course." Arrow snorted. "They wouldn't want King Vegetable-head to get hurt." She said and rolled her eyes.
"Vegetable-head?" Pan laughed rising an eyebrow at her.
"Oh yes, our royal highness, King Vegeta. More like a royal pain in my ass." She smirked, but her smile faded. "Well, I've only seen him from afar, but the things he has done and the people…" Arrow stopped and looked away. She sighed and continued. "Anyways, we're almost there and then you can see it for yourself."
"Yeah." Pan replied but she was little worried about Arrow. She shut her mouth and would have kept quite but suddenly remember hearing that name. 'Vegeta.' "I've heard that before..."
"Heard what?" Arrow raised an eyebrow at her.
"Vegeta…the prince of all Saiyans." She said it as if she had heard it every day of her life.
"Um, you mean Prince Vegeta?" Arrow mused.
"Yes, I've heard that…it's as if I've heard it a lot." Pan said in deep thought. "It's as if I've known him all my life."
"The Prince is merely a child. I really don't think you know him." She said trying hold back her laughter.
"No really…" Pan insisted and Arrow just rolled her eyes.
"Anyways, there are also a few other things in the city that I should tell you about." Arrow said interrupting Pan and went back to explaining the city to her. "Other places that you should know are the sparring area and the food sector. Both are located in the middle of the city. Then there is the academy, which is near the landing bay. "
"The academy?"
"The academy for young upper-class Saiyans to become elites and where the lower classes try to up their rank. Older Saiyans go on plurging missions, then after they do their mission they come back here and collect their earnings at the cash in station." She explained and yawned as they neared the entrance of the village. Pan just soaked up all the information that Arrow had gave her and became quiet; she thought about the city would be like. The path soon led them to a drop off where they could see the whole city.
"Woah…" Pan said in awe.
~ Planet Earth 767 AD ~
"Dammit Trunks, next time I'm driving!" Bra yelled as the time machine finally stopped at its destination. She quickly fixed her hair and check her makeup as she waited for Marron to stop hyperventilating.
"Calm down Bra, we're here aren't we?" He said calmly questioned her and grew concerned of Marron who was still sitting in her chair who looked really green. "Are you okay Mar?"
"Just…taking some…deep breaths…" She managed to respond.
"See what you did Trunks? Geez, if had known you were such a bad driver…" Bra smirked and crossed her arms.
"Bra just shut up." He glared at her and turned back to Marron, who seemed to be calming down. "So are you okay now?"
"Yeah, but I just remembered why I hated flying before." She smiled still a little sick. Bra snorted and went over to the control panel.
"So loser, what year are we in?"
"Around 767, I think the cell games are about to take place…" He trailed off as the craft was suddenly blasted and caused Bra to fall on her butt. Trunks was knocked right into Marron's lap, but managed to get off her before collapsing her lungs…although Marron really didn't mind their position. Both blushed a deep crimson and Bra just rolled her eyes.
"What the hell was that?"
" I dunno, but let's find out." Trunks said and opened the hatch off the ship and peered out. He was met with a ki blast, but he simply knocked it away. Smoke blocked his vision as he tried to see his attacker.
"Vegeta!" He heard a familiar voice yell. Distracted with the voice he didn't notice Bra push him over the top. Realizing he was falling straight for a mouthful of sand, he managed to stop himself before hitting.
"Bitch." He cursed at his sister as she just simply smirked at him when her and Marron floated to the ground. He dusted himself off and turned back around to his attacker. The smoke had cleared and they realized that they had landed right in front of the Kame house. Soon all they were face to face with most of their friends and families.
"Woah, now there's three Trunks." A younger version of his mother exclaimed.
"Well, atleast this one has chicks." A dark haired man joked.
"Who are you?" Marron thought out loud looking at the man.
"We should be asking you the same question." Vegeta sneered.
"Woah, what's going on here?" Said a very confused bald midget.
"Well, obviously we are from the future." Bra said and rolled her eyes at them. Then spotted her mother holding baby Trunks right in front of her. "Aww…look Trunks! It's baby you." She squealed and walked up towards them, but she collided with a strong muscular chest.
"What the hell do you think your doing?" He sneered at her. She gasped and took a step backwards. She gasped because her father had never used that tone with her. Everyone besides Marron and Trunks gasped because Vegeta had actually protected Bulma and his son.
"Bu..but but…Oh I hate you!" She cried and ran into Trunks' arms. Everyone sweatdropped and Vegeta raised an eyebrow. "Oh Trunks, he's so mean!"
"Way to go Baka! You made her cry!" Bulma yelled and smacked his shoulder. He gawked at her as if she had grown three heads as she handed him his son. She made her way over to Bra and took her away from Trunks. "Aw, it's okay. Veggie-head is just like that sometimes. I'm sure he didn't mean to yell at you."
Vegeta fumed at the use of the nickname and practically threw the baby into Mirai Trunks' arms. He marched over to where Bra and Bulma were and yelled at her, "Woman, how dare you! I save you pathetic life and now you comfort the person who tried to kill you."
"Monkey brain, if you hadn't noticed, she is harmless. Now go train or something." She said and ignored his further rants.
'God, what the hell is wrong with my parents? I almost think they enjoy fighting.' Trunks thought to himself as they began another of their famous verbal fights. Marron had had enough; this was getting them no where.
"God, will you two just shut up!" Marron yelled causing everyone to stare at her. "Now, that's bet…"
"Woah, she's an Android!" Krillen yelled suddenly, but she just simply rolled her eyes. Her father evidently tried to read her ki.
"No, I'm not. I'm masking my ki, some of us rather not be known. So may I continue now?" She said raising her voice; no one spoke up so she proceeded. "We have came here to find our friend. She accidentally was sent back in time and we really don't know where…"
"Yeah, she's short with long black hair, brown eyes, and is probably kicking someone's ass." Bra snorted while wiping away her tears. Bulma smiled and laughed.
"The only person I know that fits that description is Chi-Chi." She causing most of the gang to laugh, but Vegeta was not as amused.
"You don't know the half of it." Bra smirked looking very Vegeta-like. Bulma noticed this and so did Vegeta along with the rest of them.
"Oh no, you mean to tell me I'm going to stay with his monkey-ass!" She yelled shocked causing everyone to look at her in confusion. Trunks suddenly realized that his mother knew Bra was his sister.
"What?!" Bra said startled. "Um, no I'm not!" She lied terribly.
"I know that stupid smirk anywhere. Oh Kami, why me?" Bulma sulked and everyone realized what she had meant.
"There's no way in hell that I'll ever sleep with that little wench again! I would rather blast myself." Vegeta said in protest. "You have to be from one screwed up universe."
"Actually…we are from this universe but just from the future." Marron admitted and bit her lip.
"Marron!" Bra and Trunks screamed at her.
"Marron?" Krillen said in confusion and Marron mentally kicked herself.
"You brats do know you are screwing up our world right?" A voice laughed dryly causing the three teens to freeze in fear. "I just knew you three would screw up." He snorted and jumped off the roof of the Kame house.
"Daddy!" Bra's face brightened and she ran over to hug him. His other self snorted in disgust over the display of affection.
"Um, hi dad." Trunks said nervously. Vegeta let Bra go and glared at his son.
"You're just lucky I followed my instincts and told your mother what happened." He scowled but his face softened as he looked over at Bulma and shook his head then turned back to Trunks. "She sent me to give you this and to check up on you but now it seems I have to baby-sit you three."
"Give us what Daddy?" Bra asked curiously.
"It erases people's memories and such, Princess." He replied and handed it to her. Bulma's mouth dropped at his affection towards their daughter. The younger Vegeta also stared at him in shock but quickly composed himself.
"There's no way in hell that you'll erase my memory." Vegeta's younger self snorted. "How did you become such a weakling."
"Weakling am I?" He smirked and approached his younger self. Due to the younger Vegeta's ignorance, he forgot that this was his older self and tried to attack him. Vegeta just simply stepped aside and his younger self charge into empty space. Then he hit him in the back of his neck putting the younger Vegeta into a deep sleep. Everyone star at him in shock.
"Woah…Vegeta just beat the crap out of…Vegeta." Krillen said stating the obvious.
"Really? Wow, imagine that…" Bra said sarcastically and rolled her eyes. "Nice to meet you guys and all, but there's a magazine in the time machine calling my name." She said and handed her father the invention her mother had made. "Marron?"
"Yeah, coming…Well, it was nice meeting all of you!" She smiled and headed off with Bra back to the ship.
"We'll be right there, Princess. Right now we have some cleaning up to do…" He said mostly to himself as he glance at his almost identical body on the ground.
'Wow, if that was what Veggie turns out to be…' Bulma thought to herself as she looked over to her Vegeta. 'Maybe I don't mind staying with him.'
"So women, are you gonna help him or not?" He said to Bulma and pointed to the unconscious Vegeta on the ground. Bulma shook herself out of her thoughts and sighed.
"As if I could carry you! Yamcha, Krillen go take Vegeta inside. He's going to be extra bitchy when he wakes up." She said and smiled, almost duplicating his smirk. Trunks just shook his head and then nodded to Mirai Trunks who was actually holding his younger self in his arms.
"Now that's something you don't see everyday." He said and smirked.
"Yeah this and how father knocked himself out." Mirai Trunks smirked back. Trunks suddenly had an idea pop into his mind.
"You know, you should come visit us in the future. It's much nicer than this place." Trunks said and kicked some sand. "Not to mention everyone's different now."
"Like how?"
"Well, you know the pretty blonde girl that was here just now…well, that's Krillen and android 18's daughter." He said and laughed at his shocked face. Mirai even came close to dropping the baby. "Woah, let's not drop me."
"Vegeta…I have a question before you leave." Bulma said a little uncertain but looked up into his eyes. He frowned, but nodded. "Are we ever truly happy in the future?" He was taken back a little bit but smirked.
"Bulma, after putting up with my lazy ass for 30 years…you would think Kami would give you some sort of reward." Vegeta said and looked into his mate's eyes. "Yes, we are. We are very happy with each other and somehow mange not to kill one another everyday."
"Thank you." She said with simple smile and started to walk back towards the house, but Vegeta stopped her. He pulled her into a quick embrace and kissed her deeply showing her how much he truly loves her. After he broke the kiss, he used the memory eraser and deleted her memory of everything that had happened in the last hour. Then he carried her into the house after she fell asleep. Everyone stopped and watched him place her on the sofa next to his younger self. With a small sigh he stood up and looked at everyone around him. After a few minutes he had erased all their memories except for his younger self and his son from the future. He walked back to the sofa and woke himself up from the deep sleep that he had made he fall into.
"You may not want to admit it now, but she is your mate. You take care of her and your son, I regret all the things I did to her and all the pain I have caused. I know you will too." He said staring into his own dark eyes and then he erased his memory as well; but something told him that he would remember what he had said. He placed him back on the sofa next to Bulma and he watched as she snuggled up closer to him. After shaking his head, he turned and went outside to say goodbye to his son from the future. Trunks said so long to his other self and went ahead leaving the two alone.
"Well, everyone is now asleep. I want you to tell them what happened, but for your own health's sake I advise you leave out most of it." He warned him and snorted. "You need to visit, your mother misses you." Trunks smirked and nodded understanding him. "Good luck with the androids, I know you will triumph."
"If you know so father then it must be true." He replied and shook his hand. Vegeta then noticed the baby asleep in his arms. He rubbed the baby's little chin and then left. Mirai smiled and watched them leave knowing that the future he had altered was truly one of greatness if his father had changed so much.
