Looking into the distance, a small orb could be seen descending from the sky. Trunks looked back at the team and said, "Stay here, I need to talk to him." He then leapt into the air and flew toward the craft that was nearing the ground.
The craft crashed into the ground, creating a large crater. Trunks landed on the edge of it and looked into the pit as the craft opened. A strangely clothed Gokou steps out into the light of his home planet and takes a deep breath.
"You must be the legendary Gokou," Trunks states.
"I'm Gokou, but I didn't know I was legendary." Gokou steps out of the crater and next to the lavender haired teen.
"We need to talk about your future," Trunks says and begins to levitate. "We need to go over there, beyond that creak, were we will be away from prying ears," he says as he motions toward the ridge where the other Z Warriors were standing.
Gokou willingly agreed. He sensed no hostility or hate toward him.
Trunks explained that his mother sent him from the future, to warn the Z Warriors of the approaching danger that would arrive three years from now. He then told of how the Androids 17 and 18 had completely destroyed cities and had no regard for human life. Trunks also explained that he was the love child of the unlikely pair of Bulma and Vegeta.
When Gokou heard this, he laughed uncontrollably. Finally, he recovered from his laughing fit.
Meanwhile, Piccolo was listening intently to Trunks conversation with Gokou. He stifled a laugh and almost lost his stern composure when he heard of Bulma's poor judgement in men.
Trunks then went on to explain that he wanted Gokou to return to the future with him and destroy the Androids.
"What happened to us that we couldn't beat them?" Gokou asked, looking concerned.
"You died from a heart disease one year from now. Almost everyone else was killed, except Gohan," Trunks said as he looked away for a moment. All those bad memories of Gohan's death returning to him, almost making him lose his poise.
"It's good to hear that Gohan's still alive," Gokou said with a small smile.
"He passed, in 780, during an attack from the Androids. He died while trying to save me," his words became slightly ragged and tears began to well up in his eyes.
Blinking quickly, he stood up straight again and wiped the tears from his face. "You have to come back with me to beat the Androids and to save your son, before it's too late…"

"If we go to 779, it will be one year before Gohan dies. But you must know, Gohan has changed a lot since you last saw him" Trunks warned. He reached for the launch button and rested his hand on it's plastic surface.
"I'm ready," Gokou said, looking over Trunks' shoulder.
The teen pressed the button and the world around them disappeared….
