Chapter 4

A New SuperSaiyan

Gohan and Trunks didn't do any training the first night in the room of space and time. They just slept. Gohan suggested this to Trunks so they could get used to it. The next morning, Trunks arose to find Gohan already training.

"Gohan, it's amazing. I don't understand how - it - it- is - so - big!" Trunks baffled.

"Don't try to understand, it will make you mad. Just know it goes forever."

"Okay. So, what is the agenda?"

"Today, you become a SuperSaiyan."

"What? Me? No."

"Your base power is enormous. If you power up, and I force you, you should transform with no problem."

"Okay, but why do you want to make my power greater?"

"I need a partner for my journey."

"Me, alright!" Trunks smiled. He always had dreamed of adventures. He quickly powered up. The house behind him darkened when viewed through his translucent aura. His veins rippled and his eyebrows crunched together.

Gohan was surprised to see a non-SuperSaiyan have a power-level over 1 million.

"This won't take long. Step off the platform."

"Wow, it's intense. I can barely stand."

"Keep walking."

Trunks kept walking and Gohan kept him going. About 10 feet from the stairs Trunks fell to his knees.

"Get up and walk." Gohan yelled.

"I can't."

"You can and you will; now get up."

Trunks tried his best but couldn't do it. A furious look came over Gohan. If your father could do this at age 8, than you can do it at nearly 30. Trunks tried again but couldn't. Gohan, in frenzy, grabbed Trunks and threw him. 20 feet later Trunks landed with a thud.

"Ah----------! Gohan help me! My bones are breaking!" Trunks pleaded.

"No Trunks. Do it by yourself, or die!"

Trunks screamed in pain as the gravity of the room pressed his body against the floor. In a rush his head sprung up. The depleted aura around him grew back. It continued to grow past the dark tint it was before. The aura grew larger and brighter; first it turned a light blue as his body rose off his knees. Then he because completely erect as the aura turned to a light yellow color. Sparks shot off him, his short hair started to stand up, and he began to float. His body rose into the air. His hair was totally pointed upward now and began to become gold as did his aura. In a sudden jerk his body bulged, his eyes completely turned white and his pupils slowly grew green as they became visible; Gohan ensured the transformation.

A giant Masenko flew at Trunks. Trunks' aura just shot it away. Gohan launched another, this one 5 times the size of the last. Trunks put his rippling hands up to block it, the veins in his arms and hands seemed to nearly break out of his body. The Masenko was winning at first. The beam pushed against his body, but at the last second the tables turned.

Trunks' hair shot up and back, the added 2 inches as well as the rest turned bright gold. Trunks pushed the beam forward and up. Rods of lightening shot around him. Finally he propelled the beam back at Gohan. Gohan dodged it only to find a fist in his face. He flew out into the abyss of whiteness on his back, bouncing as peaces of his clothes tore off. He climbed to one knee but Trunks kicked him upwards at full force.

Gohan stopped and looked for Trunks. He couldn't pinpoint Trunks' power in the room. It was everywhere. Gohan felt Trunks' vibration from above and shot himself to the ground. He dodged Trunks as he tried to stomp Gohan on his way down. While Gohan flew backwards away from Trunks he powered up. Trunks appeared behind Gohan and tried to hit him with a roundhouse kick to the spine. Trunks found that he didn't hit the Mystic Saiyan. Gohan had grabbed his leg and threw Trunks into the abyss.

Trunks stopped and charged back at Gohan with a punch. Trunks only hit a Mystic after image of Gohan. Gohan appeared behind Trunks with a smirk on his face. Trunks got hammerfisted into the ground.

"Okay Gohan, you win!" Trunks pleaded.

"Ha-ha, alright Trunks. That's enough fighting for today."

"Am I a SuperSaiyan now Gohan?"

"No, you're more than that. You're a SuperSaiyan 2."

"What, already?"
"Yup, but there's still some training to do for today."

"What should I do?"

"What's your most powerful energy wave?" Gohan asked.

"I call it the black death. Wannah try it out?" Trunks said with a grin.

"Sure."

Trunks charged up to his max SSJ2 power. He placed his hands together and started to form a ball. Trunks started screaming as the ball turned black and the space between his hands grew. His hands were soon vertically parallel. A black cube formed. Lightening was shooting through it madly. With another scream, Trunks' energy wave was released. The Black Death extended towards Gohan always keeping its shape.

Gohan was off guard and barely managed to fall out of the way. The wave hit the bed post at the living quarters. The post just disappeared and the beam shot the impenetrable entrance door. No explosion took place. The beam finished its path and ended. A single tear of joy rolled down Gohan's young face.

"Incredible!" Ended Gohan solemnly.
