Hi I'm back!!! And with the Epilogue!!! Maybe it's a bit too long for an Epilogue, but I hope you don't mind! *g* Holidays were really great! Sun, doing nothing, writing… Just my bed was a bit too small for me *g*…
@ Songbreeze and Wicca_gurl: Of course can you use Mirai Buu! I don't think that I'm the only one who already did that, so go on and tell me when you've posted the fic!!!
Oh, and what I have to say! They've finally started DB Z on German TV, until yesterday I was okay with the dubbing, but yesterday they showed Vegeta for the first time and his voice is simply terrible… it sounds like a … a… bad dwarf and not like the proud prince of all Saiyans.
************************************************************************************
The last time in "TLW – The Sequel":
"Now you'll pay."
"What?"
Faith lunged forward and hit Buu in his stomach, letting him double over. After that she went down to the ground and kicked his feet away, but before he could touch the ground, she kicked him in the back, letting him fly high into the air. Faith coolly raised her hands and prepared a huge ki-blast in her palms. "Disintegrate into nothing Buu!" she shouted and sent the ki-blast at him, pulverizing him instantly without a chance of regenerating. Directly after the blast subsided and Faith felt that Buu was gone her eyes changed back from red to black and she fainted.

Epilogue
Yamcha, Krillin, Tenshinhan, Chao-zu, Piccolo and Kaiousama were all sitting in silence on Kaiousama's small planet, grieving for the friends and fellow-fighters they've lost and thinking about how they could still stop Buu from destroying everything and everyone in the universe, as suddenly Krillin's head jerked up. "Did you just feel that?"
"What?" the others asked in unison.
"There was just a strange ki on earth. Stronger than Buu's. And now both are gone," he told them.
"Buu's ki is gone? Are you sure about that Krillin?" Kaiousama wanted to know.
"He's right. I can't feel it either," Yamcha said.
"But… That must mean… that Buu's dead," Chao-zu said excited.
"Killed by some unknown hero…" Tenshinhan continued thoughtful and Kaiousama began to concentrate, restoring his connection to earth, but he could just agree. Buu was gone, but the fighters were hurt pretty badly.
"I'll contact the Kaioushin. Maybe he knows more about Buu's disappearance and I've heard that Kaioushin's helper Kibito possesses healing abilities," he told them and they nodded at him.
~*~
"What shall we do now, Lord Kaioushin? Our last hope is gone," Kibito asked with a deeply worried voice.
"I don't know, Kibito. They're not dead yet, but I'm sure Buu will destroy them along with the earth."
"Hello? Lord Kaoiushin?" They suddenly heard a voice calling. Startled they looked around, searching for the owner of this voice, but didn't find it.
"Who and where are you?" Kibito demanded to know.
"I'm Kaiousama. I'm talking to you through your hearts."
"And what do you want?"
"One of my students on my planet noticed that suddenly next to Buu's another ki appeared, much stronger than his, and that shortly after both disappeared. Did you notice that too?"
"No…" Kaioushin said surprised and look out for Buu's ki. "But you're right. It's gone. I can't feel it either. What do you think, is that a good or a bad sign?"
"I've looked down to earth and I couldn't find him anywhere on or near earth. I think that someone appeared after our fighters were knocked out and killed him., the blue man told the higher god.
"I think and hope you're right. Do you have any ideas of what we should do now?"
"I've heard that your friend Kibito can heal people. It would be nice if he'd go down to earth and help the fighters, now that their senzu beans are destroyed."
"That's right. I will send him there. Maybe they know what has happened."
"Okay, thank you… and bye!"
"You're welcome. Goodbye," Kaioushin said smiling. "Kibito, you've heard everything. We will go to earth and help our heroes."
~*~
As Jenny slowly came back to consciousness, she felt two higher kis on earth, approaching them. But that didn't worry her that much. Much more worried her the fact that she couldn't feel Buu anywhere on earth. She tried to move but noticed that she was hurt too badly to do that and she knew too, that she and the others would eventually die, when the two kis didn't come for their help. Groaning, Jenny raised her ki as high as she could, trying to get the attention of the kis' owners, but she could just hold it for a few seconds, before she drifted back into unconsciousness.
~*~
"Kibito, did you just feel that? That flickering ki?" Kaioushin wanted to know. He and his friend arrived on earth just a few minutes ago and were now flying to the Lookout, hoping their help wouldn't be too late.
"Yes, it was the woman. Seems like she felt we're here and cried out for help with it," Kibito answered and he and the Kaioushin sped up even more.
But suddenly, after they flew for about a minute, Kaioushin stopped in midair and descended fast to the ground, followed by a confused Kibito. "What's up Lord Kaioushin? Why are we landing?"
"Somewhere here are two very weak kis," he told him and concentrated, trying to find those power levels and after a few seconds he smiled. "They are over there." he said, pointing to the ruins of a dome shaped building. "They belong to Goku and Vegeta. Come on, let's help them."
With that, they rushed to the building and soon found the two Saiyajins. Kibito immediately went over to Goku and healed him and few seconds later, Goku opened his eyes, only to see Kibito and Kaioushin leaning over him.
"Hey Kibito, Kaioushin! What are you doing here? Is Buu…"
"Later Goku," Kaioushin interrupted him. "Kibito, please heal now Vegeta." Kibito obeyed and just after a few seconds Vegeta was back to full health again.
"Now that you two are okay again, we can fly to the Lookout," Kaioushin said. "I'll explain as much as I can on the way there." The two Saiyans agreed and took off into the sky, together with the higher god and his friend.
But before Kaioushin could start to explain, they spotted something on the ground and landed again. There were still lying the unconscious bodies of Gohan, Goten, Trunks and Mirai Trunks. Kaioushin nodded at Kibit and he went over to them.
After they all woke up quite confused and Goku told them that Kaioushin would explain everything during their flight to the Lookout, they took off into the sky, again.
"I can't feel Buu's ki anymore. That must mean the brats were successful," Vegeta stated.
"No, not the two women did that. They almost killed him, they were incredible strong, but the Fusion gave out before they could end it and from this point on, Buu had the upper hand, again, and knocked everyone out. Jenny tried one last time to attack him, but he grabbed her at her throat and she lost her consciousness. That was, when both Kaiousama and we broke the connection with earth," Kaioushin told the stunned Saiyajins.
"But Buu's dead. Isn't he?" Goku wanted to know.
"Yes, as far as we know, he is. One of Kaiousama's students noticed that suddenly a very high and strange ki appeared out of nowhere and that just one or two minutes later this ki disappeared again, along with Buu's."
"Wow," Trunks said impressed, not knowing that the one who killed Buu was his daughter. "He really must have been incredible strong."
Kaioushin nodded. "Kaiousama told me that he was even stronger than Jen as SSJ4."
"Stronger than SSJ4 Jen?" Goku asked, scratching the back of his head. "I wished I could meet this warrior in person and tell him how grateful we are."
"But I'm sure you won't just do that, won't you?" Vegeta asked smirking. "You would also ask him to train you, so that you could get as strong as him."
"But you would do the same Vegeta," Goku answered grinning.
"Of course…"
"Mmh," Goten said thoughtful. "He saved the earth, us and our families and is stronger than a fused Saiyan level four. Somehow a scary thought…"
~*~
About ten minutes later, they finally arrived at the Lookout, but they didn't like what they saw. Almost the whole palace was destroyed and the beaten up bodies were spread all over the Lookout. Almost at the same moment, Trunks, Mirai Trunks and Goten spotted their wives/girlfriend and rushed to them.
Trunks took Jenny's hand as soon as he got there and felt for her pulse and luckily it was still there. He felt tears coming in his eyes as he gently wiped a strand of blond hair out of her face. "Jenny, please, don't leave me. I need you, the kids need you. You know, they just listen to you. Please Jenny, wake up, I love you," he said and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Please come back to me."
He then looked around, never letting her hand go and he saw that Kibito already healed Shana, Chris and Will and that they were all holding each other, sobbing. Kibito was now healing Pan and the next ones would be Michael and Faith.
Pan just woke up, as Trunks felt a light squeeze at his hand. Startled he looked down at Jenny and noticed with a smile how she opened her eyes.
Jenny had to blink a few times, before she finally realized that it was Trunks who was holding her hand. "Hey," she said weakly.
"Hey," Trunks answered relieved, smiling down on her.
"Am I in heaven?" she asked and tried to sit up, but succeeded just a few centimeters, before she felt back groaning. "No not heaven."
"Don't worry, love. You're alive. We all survived somehow. Kibito is right now healing Faith and Michael. You'll be next."
"But Buu…" Jenny suddenly remembered.
"Buu is gone, dead. Got the information on the way here. Strong warrior, don't know who, appeared out of nowhere and took care of him."
"Mommy! Daddy!" At that moment, Michael came running towards them, followed by a walking Kibito and an even slower Faith. She didn't know what to do, how to react after what she did. Should she tell them that she was the one who killed Buu? Did she want them to know about her power? She was scared that they would be afraid of her, thinking of her as a monster, a monster like Buu, what is better to be killed.
Faith looked up and saw that Kibit was finished with healing her mother and how her father and her brother were now hugging her. Her mother then smiled at her, got up and embraced her tightly. "Faith? Is everything okay? That was so brave how you attacked him."
'Could she know? No, impossible. She was unconscious.' "Yes mom. I'm okay." At that moment, she decided it would be better when no one knew about what has really happened. Let them think that it was some stranger, as long as they won't think that it was her.
Vegeta was watching the girl since she woke up and noticed immediately that something was bothering her. She didn't even notice that he was watching her, a thing she normally noticed at once. Unlike her brother, the girl walked slowly up to her them. Normally she was the wild one, but this time she was deep in thoughts. It seemed as if she was thinking of a hard decision she had to make, a decision that could change her life completely. 'Could she know something we don't know?' This thought worried him.
~*~
About half an hour later the whole group, except of Mr. Popo, who wanted to stay on the Lookout, was gathered at Capsule Corporation, talking about what they should do, now that Buu was gone.
"I think we should use the Namek Dragonballs now," Jenny, who was sitting in Trunks' lap the whole time, with one child on each side, said. "We have three wishes, right? Okay, the first with is to restore everything on earth the way before Buu appeared. Then we resurrect all people killed by Buu. I think you all agree with me."
"Sounds good," Shana said. "But what about the third wish?"
"We could resurrect the warriors who died since Goku caught the heart decease," ChiChi suggested.
"Or we could erase the memory of those people," Mirai Gohan said, much to his mother's anger.
"Gohan! How could you say something like that?"
"Mom, please. I think those people already lived through enough horror. Don't you think it's better for them to forget Buu?" Mirai Gohan asked her.
"Yes, Gohan, but…"
"No buts mom. Not this time. I'm sorry, but I think that dad and Vegeta agree with me." He and his mother looked at the Mirai Saiyans and they nodded. "Okay, I think we've decided about the third wish."
"Wait a minute!" Pan suddenly shouted. "As far as I know was Piccolo also killed after Mirai Goku's death during the fight with the androids. And when we resurrect the fighters, Piccolo would also be brought back, as well as…"
"Kami…" Jenny interrupted her.
"And the Dragonballs," Mirai Trunks continued.
"And that means, we can do both. Resurrect the Mirai warriors and let the people forget about Buu," Pan told them.
"That's brilliant, Panny!" Goten praised her with a big smile.
"Hey guys!" They suddenly heard a voice saying. "It's me! Kaiousama! I've heard your wishes and I think you've made good choices. And the best thing is, the Namek Dragonballs included death by decease as unnatural death, and that means Goku would be brought back as well! So, Goku, do you want to talk with Saichourou, so that he can summon Porunga?"
"Sure!" both Goku's answered in unison and began to grin.
"Okay," Mirai Goku said, "you can talk with him. It was your plan to collect the Namek Dragonballs. So I let you do it."
"Thank you," Goku said to his Mirai self and then turned the attention back to Kaiousama. "Can I talk to him now?"
"Yes, you can talk now."
~*~
"Hey Saichourou!" Saichourou was happy to hear Goku's voice. That must mean that Buu was finally dead and no longer a danger to the universe.
"Hey Goku! Have you decided for your wishes?" the Namek wanted to know.
"Yes, we have. You can call Porunga now." The Namek eldest smiled and began to mumble something in Namekian and the Dragonballs in front of him began to glow. The sky became black and golden beams were coming out of the Dragonballs and at the next moment Porunga was floating in front of him.
"You've summoned me. I'll fulfill you three wishes within my power."
"Goku, you can now say your wishes."
"Okay, our first wish is to restore everything on earth like it was before Buu appeared."
~*~
The people in the living room of CC heard how Saichourou said something in Namekian and at the next moment everything was restored. The kids, except of Faith, ran excited to the window and saw how everything went back to normal. "Hey grandpa!" Chris shouted. "It worked!"
"Of course it did," Goku told him grinning.
"Goku," Saichourou gained his attention. "Porunga is ready for your second wish."
"Okay, our second with is to resurrect all people killed by Buu." They again heard the Namek speaking in his tongue and not even a minute later they saw surprised looking people on the street.
"And now the third wish," Goku mumbled. "Saichourou, our last with is to resurrect all warriors who died after my other self caught the heart decease." While they heard the Namek mumble, all gazes were fixed on the three Mirai Saiyans and after the mumbling stopped, it seemed like long minutes before something happened, but as the halos finally disappeared, ChiChi jumped at the neck of Mirai Goku and Mirai Gohan, laughing and crying at the same time.
"Goku, Porunga has disappeared again and he has granted your wishes. Goodbye… and good luck," Saichourou wished him and his voice faded.
~*~
"Kami?" Mr. Popo asked stunned, as the god was suddenly standing in front of him.
"Yes, Mr. Popo. It's me. Piccolo was wished back to life along with the other fighters," Kami told his friend.
"The Namek Dragonballs?" the black man asked, and Kami just nodded.
~*~
"And what shall we do now?" Goten wanted to know.
"We could call my mom to open the portal, so that she could come back. And when she's here, we can still open the portal again directly from the machine, in case you want to stay a bit longer," Mirai Trunks suggested.
"And what are you planning, Trunks? I mean, Mirai Trunks?" Gohan asked. "We all know that you've bonded with my daughter, so, will you stay here or will you come with us?"
"Daddy, I know you won't like it, but I will stay here with Trunks, until the school begins again," Pan said.
"But Panny…"
"Dad, his father and friends just came back to life. I'm sure he wants to spend some time with them."
"But I will eventually come to your dimension. I know how much Pan loves you, all of you, and I will do everything to make her happy."
"Okay, Panny. And Trunks, I hope you mean what you say, otherwise…"
"Otherwise I have to stop my dear big brother from killing you," Jenny said laughing.
"Gohan, I swear. I'll never hurt your daughter… And I think I'll call mom now. Or will you do that, dad?"
"No, it's better when you call your mother," Mirai Vegeta said, pretending to be annoyed by this question. 'So I'll be a surprise for her.'
"Okay dad," Mirai Trunks said smiling, knowing what his was planning, kissed Pan and went to another room to talk with his mother.
~*~
Mirai Bulma was sitting in the living room of Trunks and Jenny together with her other self, ChiChi and Videl, playing with little Joey, as the communicator suddenly began to beep. The four women looked at each other. They knew that this was the moment where they would get to know, if the Saiyajins were successful or not. With shaking hands, Mirai Bulma took the communicator, pushed a button and raised it to her ear. "Hello?" she asked, not knowing what would come. "Trunks? Are you okay? … Buu's gone? Really? … That's great!" the woman said excited.
In the following minutes, Mirai Trunks explained the most important facts, leaving out that the Mirai Saiyajins helped during the fight and that all Mirai fighters were wished back. At the end of the call, Mirai Bulma told her son, that she would come back the same evening and that the fighters could stay at their house as long as they wanted to.
"Is that true?" ChiChi wanted to know. "Buu's dead and everyone's okay?"
"Yep, Trunks told me that, even though they don't know who killed Buu, but that he's definitely dead. And as you've heard, I will go back to my time this evening, and I will send the others home, when they want me to do it."
"There's no way you'll go alone tonight. I want to come with you. I'm really curious about your timeline," Bulma told her other self. "And I'm pretty sure ChiChi and Videl do also want to come with us, making sure that their husbands and children are alright," she said, looking at the two women, who smirked at her.
"Okay, you got me. You can come with me. But what shall we do with our little Joey here?" Mirai Bulma wanted to know, looking at the small girl, who raised her head as she heard her name and smiled at her 'second' grandmother.
"We take her with us," ChiChi said. "I'm sure she can't wait to see her mommy and her daddy again."
"Mommy! Daddy!" the girl squeaked and smiled even more.
"Hey! And what about me?" Bra, who just came into the living room, wanted to know.
"Of course you can come too, honey," Bulma told her. "I'm sure your father can't wait to see you again."
~*~
It had become evening, and Pan and Mirai Trunks were sitting on the roof of the now restored main building of Capsule Corporation, watching the sunset. As they were sitting there, enjoying the game of orange and red at the horizon, they thought of the last days and weeks. No one would believe that those were days and weeks of horror and death. But luckily the Mirai warriors wanted to start the search for their Dragonballs the next day, so that the normal people could forget about this. Pan snuggled deeper into Mirai Trunks' embrace, enjoying the warmth of his body and the feeling of safety. "Jenny was right," she suddenly said.
"Right? About what?" Mirai Trunks asked confused.
"As I was a small girl, I had a crush on the other Trunks, Jenny's Trunks. I was really sad and jealous every time I saw how he looked at Jenny. She told, no, promised me one night that I will find someone like him, someday. Of course did we never think of the possibility that I could meet and fall in love with you," the black haired girl said chuckling.
"Really?" he wanted to know, slowly leaning forward.
"Really," Pan assured him, also leaning forward and soon they were engaged in a deep and passionate kiss.
~*~
Jenny and Trunks were sitting on a tree, together with Shana and Goten, also watching the sunset, but they could also watch Pan and Mirai Trunks on the roof.
"Aren't they cute?" Shana asked smiling, as Goten pulled her closer.
"Yes, they are," Jenny said, also smiling. "It's good that they've found each other and it's a good thing that Gohan likes him. I'm sure he would never even think of leaving her;" she continued thoughtful.
Trunks noticed that his wife became unusual quiet all of sudden and became at once worried. "Jenny, what's up?"
"Nothing…" she said, resting her head on his shoulder. "Just the last days, years for me, that was just too much. Losing you, thinking that you were dead. In the first month in the Room of Spirit and Time I made Pan's life to hell, because I didn't know how to deal with it."
"But I'm back, alive. And I would never leave you or Faith or Michael or Joey again. I promise. But one good thing had the ROSAT."
"Really? What?" Jenny asked confused.
"Your new hair style. I like it. But we have to do something with your tail…"
"What's wrong with my tail?" Jenny purred in his ear, powering up to her normal Saiyajin form and wrapping her tail around Trunks' arm, sending a shiver down his spine.
"When I think of it, absolutely nothing," he said and kissed Jenny softly on the forehead and then on the lips.
They first broke apart as Goten cleared his throat. "I'm deeply sorry to interrupt you guys," he said grinning. "But it's about time."
"Okay," Jenny and Trunks answered in unison and watched how Goten lifted Shana up and descended to the ground. Jenny just wanted to fly to the ground on her own, as Trunks grabbed her waist and carried her down.
"Trunks! What are you doing?" she screamed surprised.
"Doing the same as your brother." Jenny just wanted to say something, but Trunks quickly shut her up with a kiss. He smirked, as they broke apart. "I see it still works."
"Shut up Trunks Vegeta Briefs!" she told him scowling and hit him playfully on the arm.
"As long as you two lovebirds are busy, we're going to tell Pan and Mirai Trunks to meet us in the lab," Shana said laughing and she and Goten walked over to the other part Saiyajins.
~*~
Just a few minutes later, Jenny and Trunks arrived in the laboratory, where everyone was already waiting. Kaioushin and Kibito left a few hours ago and went back to their planet, but in the meantime the other resurrected Mirai warriors came to CC. In the same time, the two entered the lab, the portal opened.
Mirai Vegeta was standing in the background, arms crossed and a scowl plastered on his face, but he was tapping nervously with his foot. He couldn't await that his Bulma came through the portal, but he didn't know how he or she would react. During the years in the afterlife he had really missed her, but he had never shown how much he loved his 'woman'. And now he would finally meet her again, if she just came through this damn portal.
After what seemed like an eternity, they could finally see a shadow walking towards them. Mirai Vegeta held his breath, as Mirai Bulma emerged from this glaring light. He silently wondered how she could still be that beautiful after almost 25 years of pure horror. At that moment he knew what he would do. He would finally ask her to marry him, of course when nobody was watching them.
Mirai Bulma was more than a bit confused as she came through the portal, because there were more people waiting for her than she thought and it took her a moment to realize, who those persons were. While Mirai Bulma was trying to understand what was going on, Videl, ChiChi, Bra and the other Bulma came through the portal, Videl carrying the youngest daughter of Jenny and Trunks on her arms. The present warriors were quite surprised to see their families coming though that portal, but not even a few seconds later, Bulma and ChiChi were hugging their husbands. Videl sat Joey on the ground, and the girl ran up to her parents, while she was going to Gohan and Bra was immediately greeting her best friend Pan.
But Mirai Bulma didn't see any of this. In her mind she was still playing with the thought that her eyes were playing games with her, just as suddenly Mirai Yamcha was standing in front of her, she snapped out of this. "Yamcha?" she asked with a shaking voice.
"Yes, it's me. Hello Bulma," he said softly and hugged her.
"And Chao-zu, Tenshinhan, Piccolo and Krillin…" Mirai Bulma said almost in a whisper. Mirai Chao-zu, Tenshinhan and Krillin waved and Mirai Piccolo simply nodded. As she walked to the group, she saw also Mirai Gohan and Mirai Goku. "Gohan! Goku!" she shouted and jumped first at Mirai Gohan's and then at Mirai Goku's neck. "How comes you all are alive? You have no halos, that must mean you are alive, aren't you?"
"Yes, we are," Mirai Goku answered her grinning.
"But how?"
"We'll explain everything later. But don't you think you forgot someone?" he said and took a step aside, revealing Mirai Vegeta a few steps behind him.
"Oh god… Oh my god…" She put her hand on her mouth and shook her head, slowly walking up to him. "No, this can't be true," she said, as she put her hand on his chest, testing his heartbeat. "Oh my god, Vegeta!" she shouted, as she burst into tears and flung her arms around his neck, burying her head in his shoulders.
Much to everyone's surprise, Mirai Vegeta also put his arms around her waist, deeply inhaling the scent of her hair. "Bulma," he whispered softly, so that just she could hear it. "I never told you how much I love you. You can't believe how much I've missed you. Seeing you from the afterlife, but not being able to be near you almost destroyed me."
"Oh Vegeta, you idiot. Of course can I believe it. I've also missed you."
That comment made Mirai Vegeta smile. 'Still the same loudmouthed woman I fell in love with.'
"I'm sorry to interrupt you two, but don't you think we should go upstairs?" Jenny asked them smiling.
Mirai Vegeta nodded at her, trying to hide his own tears and so everyone walked upstairs.
~*~
As soon as they all arrived in the living room, the "newcomers" bombarded the warriors with questions. After they told them everything what has happened in the last days, including the most important facts of what has happened in the Room of Spirit and Time, the non-fighters were quite surprised that Buu wasn't killed by any of their fighters, but by someone they don't know, someone who appeared as fast as he disappeared. No one would believe that a seven-years old girl was the one who defeated Buu.
Vegeta, who just watched and listened, while everyone was totally excited, noticed that he wasn't the only one who didn't say anything. His granddaughter Faith was also quiet. He got the impression that this whole conversation was uncomfortable for her, that she would rather be somewhere else and that she fought with herself about something.
As Faith noticed that she was watched, she glanced up to him, but looked away just after a second. Vegeta thought about something Bulma told him once. She told him that eyes were the mirror to the soul and if that was true, then the girl was truly afraid, but tried to hide it behind a mask and he knew this mask all to well, because he wore it long enough. At that moment he decided to talk to her, when they were alone. Her parents had so much to take care of that they wouldn't have the time to notice that something wasn't right with their eldest daughter, so he silently felt like he had to take care of her. Since she was born, he knew that this girl was much like him, way too much like him, so that he was the only one who could understand what was going on in her head.
~*~
Later that night, as they've finished the big talk, the present warriors decided that they would go home the next morning. After they took care of everything, Vegeta decided to go for a small walk in the garden. Just after a few minutes, he saw a small figure sitting at a tree. As he came nearer, he noticed that it was Faith. He looked around and as he saw that they were alone, he sat down next to her.
"Hey Vegeta," she greeted him. She was the only grandchild of him, who called him by his first name. All the others said grandpa.
"Brat." They sat next to each other in silence until Vegeta began to speak. "Are you alright?"
"Sure, why not. Everything's fine," she lied.
"Really?"
"Yeah. Why do you ask? Don't tell me you're worried."
Vegeta chuckled lightly. "Maybe, a little. I'm asking because you were so quiet all the time, even more quiet than I, and since so much happened in the last days, I wanted to know if you're okay."
"Vegeta, I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself. I'm a Saiyajin, remember?" she asked and got up. "You don't need to worry about me." With that, she walked back into the building.
"That's what I thought as I was a kid. And I became a cold-hearted killer. It's not good when someone matures that fast. That's why I'm worried about you, Faith," Vegeta mumbled, when she was gone.
~*~
In the meantime, Jenny decided to finally ask something, she wanted to know, since she knew about this timeline. Therefore she went to the Lookout to meet Mr. Popo, who recognized her as she first went to the Lookout and maybe even Kami. Maybe they could answer her the question.
Much to her surprise, both of them were already waiting for her and invited her in. After Mr. Popo made a cup of tea, she asked her question. "Do you know what happened with the other me, the me from this timeline? Do I even exist?"
Kami and Mr. Popo looked at each other and Kami began to explain. "Yes, you did exist. Before Goku got the decease, ChiChi got pregnant with you and the boy who would've been Goten. She was immediately sent to the other dimension, to the same mother and father you have. But Goten was never born. As Goku died, ChiChi had a miscarriage. No one knew that she was pregnant, and she didn't tell anybody."
"And… what about the other me?"
"She had a happy childhood," Mr. Popo continued, "until she got those prophetic dreams. They've worn her out, mentally and physically. She has been totally stressed, so that it didn't take long for her to transform into her normal Saiyajin form. The same night, we sent her Bardock in her dreams, to train her, the same way he trained you in the ROSAT. He told her about her destiny and she accepted it. Under his training she became incredible strong, stronger than Fieldner."
"So, she did kill him, didn't she?"
"Yes she did, but she…"
"… died," Jenny said and got up. "Thank you, Mr. Popo, Kami. That's all I wanted to know."
"Your welcome Jenny. And farewell!" Kami said. Jenny bowed slightly and left.
~*~
The next morning everyone was gathered in the lab of CC. Last hugs and handshakes were exchanged between the people from the different timelines, Gohan was talking to Pan, making sure that she was alright, and was threatening Mirai Trunks to take good care of her and Bra was saying goodbye to Mirai Vegeta. You could say that they've become friends in the few hours they knew each other and he silently envied his other self that he had a daughter like her.
As everything was set and the portal opened, they waved at each other and slowly everyone was going through the portal. Faith was the last one to go and she looked back one last time, before she would leave this world. This world where she had experienced a new power in her body, a power that scared the hell out of her, but she couldn't talk about it. She just hoped that she could leave this power and the fear behind in this world, or that it would at least vanish with the time.

In the afterlife, Bardock was watching the whole scene and he was mumbling the warning he gave Jenny in the Room of Spirit and Time.
"Remember,
Faith will play an important role in the Saiyajin's future.
Faith is powerful, even more powerful than you could ever imagine.
Take care that Faith will stay on the side of light."
THE END

So, that was finally the last chapter of "The Lost Warrior – The Sequel". I know this story isn't as good as the first part, but I will do my best to make the third part even better. And to be able to do it, I will first start with it, when I've finished my other story "There will always be hope". I hope you don't mind…
Eternally Yours
