Disclaimer: I don't own Dragon Ball or Dragon Ball Z. Pretty obvious.

AN: Hi! Here's chapter 2! Thank you for all the wonderful reviews. I do want to give credit to SuperDuperNova 715, for suggesting that I write a fic where Mirai Trunks gets sent back to Dragon Ball. Thanks for the great idea! And now on with the story! Happy 19th b-day to me too!

DragonBall Dilemma

Chapter 2

The stared at the large palace in front of them. They had only heard stories about Emperor Pilaf and the first dragon ball hunt.

**Trunks, we should just wish ourselves home, then we won't disrupt the timeline anymore than we already have,** suggested Pan telepathically.

**Hey, that's a great idea Pan!** Trunks told her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Sire, those brats are here!" cried Mai.

"Well don't just stand there, capture them!" ordered Pilaf.

"Yes sire," replied Mai and Shu obediently.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The gang entered the palace and began walking through the corridors.

**Trunks, if I remember right, doesn't Pilaf capture everybody and steal grandpa's dragonball?**" asked Pan.

**Yea, let's get captured and then we'll blast a hole in the wall and make a run for the dragonballs. We'll be gone before anyone knows it** replied Trunks.

Shu and Mai trapped the gang inside a concrete room.

"Man, they took my grandpa's dragonball, how are we going to get it back?" asked Goku. The rest of the gang hung their heads as they realized Pilaf was going to make his wish. Pan and Trunks, however, smirked to each other.

Pilaf stood in front of the dragonballs and called for the dragon to arise. The sky darkened considerably. Lighting flashed brilliantly, and thunder filled the sound waves for miles. The gigantic, mystical dragon rose from his resting-place. He floated magnificently before the gatherer and bellowed his greetings.

"I am the eternal dragon, Shenron, I will grant you one wish and one wish only. Please state your wish," spoke the dragon. Pilaf cackled with delight as he prepared to tell the dragon his wish. Suddenly, he heard a loud explosion.

Trunks blew out the entire wall of the room.

"Come on Pan, we have to make our wish," said Trunks as he took her hand.

"Hold it! What do you think gives you the right to use the dragonballs for your wish huh?" asked an angry Yamcha. Trunks sighed.

"Listen, we need the dragonballs to get us back home," said Pan.

"Well I want to make my wish, so you can just wait little girl," spat Yamcha.

"LITTLE GIRL!" screamed Pan.

"Calm down Pan, let's go," said Trunks.

"Why don't you stay and fight me pretty boy. The winner makes their wish. Of course I will win. No one can survive my wolf fang fist," said Yamcha. Trunks had to give it to Yamcha. His father and Yamcha hated each other, but they were almost equally as arrogant. Bulma smiled and crept over to the dragonballs. Goku was fighting Mai and Shu, who he managed to defeat easily. Pilaf cowered away from Goku. The small midget turned back to make his wish, but saw the blue-haired girl by them. Bulma flashed him a peace sign before chanting her wish to the dragonballs.

"Dragon, I wish for the perfect boyfriend!" she called.

Pan and Trunks stopped in their tracks and looked up at the dragon. His eyes glowed. You're wish has been granted, now I bid you farewell," said the dragon as he disappeared and the seven magical orbs scattered across the earth's surface.

A figure stood where the dragonballs had once been. He was short and wore armor. He had a tail and hair that resembled a flame. The boy looked around in wonder.

"What the hell, where am I" he hollered in a gruff voice. Trunks and Pan's eyes widened and they looked each other.

**I don't think this was supposed to happen Trunks! What is your father doing here!" yelled Pan in a panicky voice. Trunks simply stood with his mouth ajar. Trunks had trouble forming any words for the situation.

"So you're my perfect boyfriend huh?" asked Bulma.

"What? What are talking about girl!" he bellowed.

"Well you have a temper, but you're cute!" said Bulma.

"Cute! Girl I don't know what you're ranting about, but I demand to know where in Vegeta-sei's name I am!" he yelled.

"Hold your horses bud! Are you saying that you aren't from earth?" asked Bulma as she saw his tail.

"Wow, you have a tail, just like Goku!" said Bulma.

"Goku? Wait if this is earth, then you must be Kakarot!" said sixteen-year-old Vegeta as he pointed at Goku.

"Who me?" asked Goku as he looked around.

"Yes you! You are one of the last saiyan warriors. You were sent here as an infant to purge the planet and ready it for sale. Why haven't you carried out your orders Kakarot!?" Vegeta demanded.

"Orders?" asked Goku as he scratched his head in wonder.

"Did you receive a bump on the head when you were a child?" asked Vegeta.

"Um, my grandpa said I fell into a ravine and hurt my head when I was a baby," said Goku. Vegeta slapped his forehead.

**Trunks, what are we going to do? Your father originally came to earth to destroy it!** cried Pan.

**I know Pan, but the whole timeline has changed now. It's up to us to make sure things turn out okay. They will never be the same, but we can at least make sure the earth has a future,** said Trunks. Pan nodded.

"Well no matter, Radditz and Nappa will be coming for me and then we will purge the earth," said Vegeta.

"Oh no you don't mister! I wished for a boyfriend, and I got you, so that's exactly what you're going to be!" ordered Bulma.

"Girl! I have no time for your foolishness! I must train. Soon the earth will bow at the feet of Vegeta, the prince of all saiyans!" he ranted.

"Oh blah, blah, blah. Sorry buster, we're going out on a date," said Bulma. Vegeta growled.

"Girl, I have no time for your insolence!" he yelled.

"Well since you're not from earth, good luck on finding a place to stay!" yelled Bulma. Vegeta realized he didn't have a place to stay. He crossed his arms and relented.

"Fine baka girl, I will stay with you until my soldiers arrive. Then the earth will be no more," smirked Vegeta.

"Whatever you say monkey boy. Now let's all go back to Capsule Corp" said Bulma.

"I'm going to train at Master Roshi's. Wait till he hears I'm an alien!" said Goku.

"It makes sense. What makes saiyans different from humans?" said Bulma.

"Saiyans are elite warriors. Our strength surpasses that of any other race," boasted Vegeta. Trunks and Pan rolled their eyes.

"Oh so that's why Goku is so strong," replied Bulma.

"We still don't know too much about you two," said Yamcha. Eyes all turned to rest of Pan and Trunks.

"Well, we're not from around here either. But we could really use your help Bulma in fixing our, um... vehicle," said Trunks, who was becoming very unnerved under their gazes.

"Okay sure, let's get going!" said Bulma.

"Bulma are you crazy? You're going to let this alien stay in your house?" asked the cowardly Oolong. Bulma smiled.

"Piggy, piggy, piggy!" she called. Oolong's stomach rumbled and he excused himself.

They all piled into the plane and Bulma took off.

**Trunks, how are we going to keep Vegeta from purging the earth?** Pan asked him.

**Well, physically we can stop him easily. He's not as strong as us at his age. So far my father hasn't hurt anyone, maybe he's already falling for my mother. Nappa and Radditz are no match for my father. But Frieza could be a problem for them,** said Trunks.

**Guess we are stuck here until we are sure that the earth's going to come through this,** said Pan.

**Yep,** replied Trunks.

About two hours later, the gang arrived at Capsule Corp.

"Why don't you and Pan bring your vehicle into my dad's lab and we'll have a look at it," said Bulma.

"Okay," replied Trunks. Pan and Trunks looked at each other and began a conversation. Little did they know, Vegeta was sensing that they weren't just looking at each other.

'Who are those two? It seems as if they are communicating telepathically. But humans aren't capable of telepathy. There's something strange about them, and I'm going to figure out what it is,' thought Vegeta as he followed them all into the lab.

**Trunks, do have any idea how you are going to explain the time capsule,** asked Pan.

**Um... I was hoping that you would come up with something,**

**ME! Trunks you're impossible sometimes,** she told him.

**Sorry honey,** he replied pathetically.

Trunks tossed the capsule. Smoke billowed from it. When it cleared the time capsule stood tall.

"What kind of vehicle is this? It has the CC logo, but I never seen anything like this before," said Bulma. She turned to the pair and gave them a stare. A stare they knew by heart. The start explaining now, or suffer my rage stare. Trunks and Pan exchanged glances and sighed. Honesty is the best policy. They had already disrupted the timeline, a little more wouldn't hurt.

"I think we all better sit down and talk," said Trunks. Bulma nodded and led the way to the kitchen. Trunks and Pan had made quite a mess and now it was probably going to get worse. Trunks could hear his mother yelling at him in his head. They had really screwed up.

AN: Hope you liked it! Will Trunks and Pan reveal their true identities? Or will they only reveal that they are time travelers? Will Vegeta question their abilities? And I promise more Trunks and Pan romance.

All this and more in the next chapter. I would love reader input on whether you think they should reveal their identities. Please review and share your suggestions. Bye for now!
