"Whew, That was good," Goten said.

    "Yeah, I'm full too," Trunks said.

    "Well, alright.  I guess I'm done too, I don't want to overfill myself." Goku said after 10 minutes.

    "You sure you guys are done?" The waiter said.

    "Yes, positive!" Krillin and Videl begged at the same time.

    "Well, here's your bill then."

    "20 thousand zeni?" Goku yelled aloud.

    "Shh Goku!  Geez!" Krillin said trying to calm Goku down.

    "Man, why did Vegeta have to leave?" Goku said.

    Meanwhile, Vegeta finally caught up to Piccolo.  "Where are we going?" He asked.

    "To Mr. Popo's place, I want to see if he's feeling this too."  They kept flying in silence to Mr. Popo's place until they reached it.

    "Hey!" Mr. Popo said.

    "Good to see you Mr. Popo.  Do you feel that evil...?"

    "Yes, Piccolo, I do.  I've been worried.  I heard that an evil egg disappeared, but something even more powerful seems to have taken its place.  It keeps creating tremors, luckily they seem to be only hurting an unpopulated area."

    "What would explain the sudden disappearance of all these people?  I saw the Supreme Kai just disappear, Krillin saw Spopovitch disappear, and Gohan and Videl saw Kibito disappear.  Apparently all at the same time too."

    "By the way, how are Gohan and Videl doing?  I saw them getting together, I think they got something going on."

    "Since when did Mr. Popo get into personal affairs?" Vegeta commented.

    "Since I've gotten bored recently.  Its boring up here without Kami." Mr. Popo said.

    "Humph" Vegeta sighed.  The tremors hit again, this time Vegeta got knocked to his knees.

    "That's it, someone's getting squashed," Vegeta finished before getting back up.

    "Vegeta, do not use such irrational thinking.  It worries me." Mr. Popo said.

    "Trunks! Slow down!" a voice said from the distance.

    "Its the boys, Trunks and Goten.  Did they follow us?" Piccolo asked.

    "Nope, we just found ya!" Goten responded enthusiastically.

    "Hi everyone!" Goku appeared out of nowhere.

    "And there is Gohan!  ...Is that Videl back there?" Goten noticed.

    "Trunks!" Mr. Popo bursted.

    "Yeah?  Who are you?" Trunks responded.

    "No, not you.  Or actually, yes you.  Remember when Trunks appeared out of nowhere?"

    "What does that got to do with anything?" Vegeta asked.

    "He used time travel.  That would explain the disappearance, right?" Mr. Popo theorized.

    "No, according to him, the past and future run like timelines, changing things in the past will not change things in the future." Goku recalled.

    "Yeah, but he was using a prototype time machine.  What if they have been refined since then?" Mr. Popo conjectured.

    "What are you talking about?  I'm right here!" Trunks blurted out.

    "You, when you were about 18, visited us from the future."  Goku remembered.  "You came in a time machine.  I had already died of heart disease when you were about a year old, as I almost did now.  You helped us defeat Cell, as you've heard."

    "I knew Mr. Satan didn't do it!" Goten interrupted.

    Goku continued, "In the end, he explained all the time travel business to us, then went on to defeat the Androids and Cell in his own time.  That was successful, as we heard.  We haven't heard from him since."

    "Mr. Popo, please continue," Piccolo said after Goku finished.

    "Well, like I said, it's a prototype, right?" Mr. Popo continued explaining.  "If that was a prototype, it might have not had the power to actually change time, but only the power to travel time.  What if some rouge pirate decided to tweak the machine to travel in a different frequency, one that instead of visiting the past, would change the past?"

    "Would someone please go get Bulma?  I have no clue what this guy is saying!" Krillin popped out from the brush on the little island in the sky.
