Disclaimer: We do not own DragonBall Z yada yada yada you've heard this same routine all before, you get the picture. However we do own our original characters, and only one character will be described per chapter.

Author's note: Akai is one of SelestialDemon's characters she made up for the sake of DBZ. Akai is a demon who escaped the imprisonment of hell, her mother was Saiyan and her father was mostly demon but part human. On the first episode of DBZ she washed up on Roshi's Island for the get-together thingie. she's rather gentle unless forced otherwise. Her and ChiChi don't get along all that well but after the Saiyan Saga ChiChi decided that since every child needed a home that Akai would become a Son. Akai has kept her past quite mysterious besides that she is four years older than Gohan (nine at the beginning of the series). She has blond hair and yellow eyes.

As Trunks began to travel back to the past once more he thought about what had just happened; it had happened so fast he barely even knew if what happened was real or not. "Damn it what the hell happened back there?" "I remember seeing Goku, Vegeta, and the others; then Vegeta charged at me and then that girl, and I don't really remember anything after that". Trunks touched his head trying to remember all that happened, but winced when he did for he had received a direct blow to his head; Trunks blacked out because of the wound on the side of his head, which was now beginning to bleed.

Akai leaned back against the wall. It had been one hour since Trunks had vanished, and she was getting bored. She looked over to see that Goku and Vegeta were arm wrestling. She sighed, "Men." She got up and wandered over. All the other men were watching intently as suddenly both Saiyans went super, both hoping to defeat the other. She tilted her head when Goku's arm began to inch backwards. Vegeta began to smirk triumphantly and he flared with aura and pushed his arm forward and Goku was flipped over the table. "I thought the table was gonna break." Krillin stared at Goku who was now sprawled on the floor. Akai yawned "I'm bored, and you know what, this spandex just isn't doing it for me, I'm going out. See ya all!" She waved as she began to walk out of the room. Vegeta smirked, "Why don't we all get out. It's not like anything here's that entertaining." He got up and began to walk to the door after Akai. "Well, sure, now that the chick in spandex is gone." Yamcha grumbled. "I heard that you pervert!!" Akai's voice rang through the room as she turned back into the room, hands on hips. Yamcha laughed nervously and scratched the back of his head. Akai groaned, "You men are impossible." She spun back around and stomped outside.

Akai walked into a small clothes store and was greeted by a kind looking man in a suit. "Good day ma'am, can I help you with anything?" He asked gleefully. "Not really." Akai answered sounding bored. She looked around and found some baggy black pants and a black T-shirt. "Hm." She looked at it and smirked, then walked into the dressing room. Once she was finished she began to walk out of the store. "Uh, excuse me, ma'am, you have to pay for that outfit." The man from before ran up to her. "Oh really?" She turned slowly, a small smirk on her face. "That so?" She raised her hand and planted it inches from his face. "I don't think so." There was a flash of light and an explosion and the store clerk was gone. A loud scream was heard and she turned to see a large woman holding a child was screaming and starting to run away when another blast came flying at her. "Heh, glad I tagged along." Yamcha stood on top of a building "But it is a pity you're out of your spandex." "Oh shut up." Akai glared at him then shot down a car, watching it swerve and light on fire. A large explosion was seen a few miles off, They both look to see Vegeta throwing blast after blast at numerous buildings and people. Akai grinned, "At least someone around here knows how to have fun!" She then turned and shot a blast at the building Yamcha was standing on. He yelped and she just laughed and continued to blow things up.

"We just received this braking news a young man in a very strange machine has just landed in the middle of a road right here in Satan City!" "Can you tell us what happened here? It just appeared there out of nowhere. So what your saying is that this contraption just appeared here suddenly out of nowhere. Well folks you heard it hear live we are now going to show you a close up of the machine that just mysteriously appeared here." "Mom, mom! You gotta see this there's this strange machine that just appeared in the city and there's somebody in it!" "Let me see Trunks." Bulma rushed to the room where Trunks was watching TV.

Bulma looked at the TV screen then shouted "its Trunks!" with that Bulma rushed out the door. "What! Mom what are you talking about I'm right here!" Trunks hollered at his mother, but he was too late Bulma was gone.

Bulma arrived at the place where Mirai Trunks had landed. "Trunks, Trunks!" "Excuse me ma'am but you can't go in there" said a very large police officer. "Don't you dare tell me what I can or can't do! Now let me through!" "I'm sorry ma'am but I can't let you go in there." "Why you!" it looked as if Bulma was about to explode when "It's ok let her through" another officer came up and just gave Bulma clearance for absolutely no reason. "Ah thank you" Bulma was confused but thanked her anyway. "Don't worry about it" said the officer and then gave her a small smile. Bulma smiled and nodded, she then took off at a run to the Time Machine. "Trunks!" She yelled as she climbed up onto the machine. She quickly opened it and moved to her future son. "Oh god, he's hurt bad." She looked worriedly at him, the cut on the side of his head was still bleeding heavily. "Oh, Trunks, what happened to you?" She asked worriedly. She struggled to get him out of the machine and lifted him down. A murmur ran through the crowd. She stumbled and stopped. Trunks was a bit to heavy for her too carry and she didn't want to risk further injury. 'This is just great, I knew I should've brought Vegeta with me.' Bulma mentally bashed herself. "Here, I'll carry him to the nearest hospital." It was the policewoman from before. "If you could just carry him to my car, I have some things that would be more helpful at home." Bulma looked up at her thankfully. "Sure." The woman picked Trunks up gently and carried him to Bulma's car. "Thank you so much," Bulma said to the woman as she got into her car. "You've been really helpful." "It was my pleasure, just, get him home safely ok?" The woman smiled and waved as Bulma drove off.

Bulma ran into the house and desperately searched for Vegeta, she needed someone that could carry Trunks in with out making the injury any worse than it already was. "Vegeta where are you I need you to do something for me!" Vegeta then emerged from his gravity room. "What is it onna, I'm in the middle of my training!" "I need you to carry Trunks inside he's hurt!" "What's wrong with the brat?" "I already told you Vegeta he's hurt!" "What the hell is going on!?" Chibi Trunks had heard their conversation and entered the room demanding to know what was happening. "Come I'll show you!" Bulma grabbed Vegeta's arm and dragged him out to the car where Mirai Trunks was lying unconscious. "He's back" was all that Vegeta could muster. Chibi Trunks just stood there staring at this man who looked almost exactly like him. Vegeta then proceeded to carry Trunks inside while Bulma went to get a first aid kit. Vegeta was now bubbling with anger from the sight of his future son being hurt so badly; and he didn't have a clue what had done this to him. Bulma entered the room carrying the first aid kit. "How is he Vegeta?" Bulma asked with worry. "Well how does he look!? He's hurt!" Vegeta yelled, still enraged. Bulma just ignored Vegeta's outburst as she began to clean and bandage the wound on the side of Trunk's head. Chibi Trunks had just entered the room and was still quite curious to who this man was. "Okasan, who is this man?" asked chibi Trunks Bulma was at a loss for words but tried to explain in the best and easiest way possible "Um well Trunks I don't know how I'm going to explain this to you but this man is the future version of yourself." Chibi Trunks just stood there motionless, when all of a sudden. "Cool how many people get to meet their future selves? That is so cool!! Wait'll I tell Goten! Man he'll get so jealous! Ha!" Bulma stared in somewhat shock at her son's energetic response. "Well, he took that better than I expected." "Aw, whoa!" Chibi Trunks took off to get the phone to notify his friend about their current guest. "I give it an hour before everyone knows that Mirai Trunks is back," Vegeta stated. "I give it half the time," remarked Bulma. A low moan sounded from the youth and his eyes fluttered open. Bulma gasped. "Trunks! You're awake!" Trunks winced slightly as his mother's loud voice rang through his head.

"MOM! MOM!! MOM!!!!" Trunks just called! And guess what! He says that his future self's there! Isn't it cool?!" An ecstatic Goten raced into the room. "Nani?!?" Gohan and Akai both leapt to their feet. Goten stared up at his older brother and stepsister. "What's wrong?" "Now Goten, I don't want you telling stories." ChiChi walked into the room. "But it's not a story! Trunks says it's true!" Goten furrowed his brows and looked up at his mother. Akai and Gohan both looked at each other and nodded. "He's here." Sarra said somewhat gravely. "And that can't mean anything good." "Maybe he just came to see us? He did it a few times when Goten and Trunks were little." Gohan said trying to stay on the plus side. "I don't think so. his power is low, he was pretty beat up." Sarra said.

Back at Capsule Corp. Mirai Trunks was being interrogated by Vegeta. "Well brat what happened!?" exclaimed an infuriated Vegeta. Since Mirai Trunks had just awoken he was quite dazed, and the huge gash on the side of his forehead wasn't helping much. "Well?!?" He yelled his temper raising quickly. "Vegeta! He just woke up!" Bulma yelled rushing to fend off her husband. Vegeta snarled. "Oh Bulma! It seems we have someone to see you!" Mrs. Briefs' cheery voice rang into the room causing Trunks to wince in pain. The bubbly blond woman walked in followed by Gohan, Akai, Goten and Chibi Trunks. "Wow! Is that him? He sure does look like you! I wish I could meet my future self! WOW!" Goten yelled, much to Mirai Trunks' dismay as he held his head in pain. "Here, we stopped by Karin's and got some Senzu Beans." Akai pulled a small pouch from her pocket and pulled out a small green bean. Mirai Trunks then took it and ate it giving her a grateful look. "So are you gonna tell us what happened now!" Vegeta shouted. "Well aren't we impatient today" Gohan stated sarcastically. "Shut up brat before I bash your head I-" but before Vegeta could finish his sentence, he was hit on the head by Bulma. "So Trunks what happened to you anyway?" questioned Gohan. "I'd rather tell everyone at once, and even then it's not that simple most of it's a blur in the back of my mind."

At this same time off in Other World, Son Goku was quickly eating large quantities of food to sooth the Saiyan hunger that was now waving over him. "Goku!" Kaio-sama shouted. Goku looked up from his food "What is it?" He asked noticing the worried expression on Kaio-sama's face. "There seems to be trouble on Earth. It appears that Mirai Trunks has returned from his timeline." Kaio-sama replied. "What?" Goku yelled. "And this time it isn't a friendly visit. I'm afraid the Earth may be in danger once again." Goku growled, "and I can't help either. damn it..." "KONICHIWA!!!" Kaio-sama and Goku both yelped and leapt into the air. They spun around to face a woman with blond hair and blue eyes. "Umi!" Goku gasped. "Don't do that, you nearly killed me..." "Goku," the woman said pointing to the halo floating above the man's head. "You're already dead." "Yeah. well." Goku sweat dropped scratching the back of his head. "So what's up, you two looked worried before I came up and uh scared you?" "Well Mirai Trunks is back and considering the reasons why he might be back, there's obviously a new threat to the Earth." Goku sighed. "The worst part is when he arrived he had been badly beaten, which can only mean one thing; this new enemy Mirai Trunks has discovered must be incredibly powerful. "Kaio-sama said his voice filled with worry. "I don't believe this!" Goku yelled, "I'm stuck here and I can't go and help my friends!" "Yes you can." Umi smiled mischievously at him. "What?!" Goku yelled.
