Author's Notes: Several things must be explained before starting this fan fiction. This section details some background information that should be explained. First, this fan fiction will be divided as follows:
Series: Basically, what everything in the fan fiction is about. I intend to have two series in the end, and the current series is the Legend of the Seven Swords. So everything in my fan fiction will relate to this topic.
Saga: The current Saga. This is a broad overview of what will be happening in the next few chapters, but it will pertain to whatever the Series is. Generally, it is name after the main villain our heroes will be attempting to defeat. My fan fiction will begin with the Mirai (censored)* Saga.
Chapter: Self-Explanatory.
Episode: The chapter number in the current saga. Therefore, if I have 5 chapters, and the 6th begins a new saga, it will be the 1st episode for this saga, even though it's still the 6th chapter.
In addition, this is an Alternate Universe (AU) fic.
---Pre-Prologue---
(It's not really the prologue as it merely gives background information for the story, but not to the extent of setting up the story. Background information as in you know what is going on in this timeline.)
The Guardians were a group of beings, who possessed extraordinary powers, and had the ability to reach a higher state of being, known as the Mystic. Since the Kais were not strong enough to protect the Universe alone, they employed these beings as the defenders of the galaxy. The Universe is divided into 4 sections (north, south, east, and west. The Dai Kaioshin watches over the universe. Under the Dai Kaioshin are the five most powerful guardians. They act as his personal bodyguards, and are the only mortals allowed to set foot on his world. Keeping watch over each section of the Universe is a Supreme Kai, or Kaioshin. Below the Kaioshin, likewise, are five of the most powerful guardians from that section of the Universe. The strongest of these five acts as the Kaioshin's bodyguard. The other four keep watch over their section of the universe. In each section of the galaxy, there are several galaxies. Each galaxy has its own Grand Kai. He watches over the galaxy. The Grand Kai resides in the Otherworld (heaven). Thus, he has no need for bodyguards. Instead, the guardians of each galaxy are charged with the protection of their individual galaxy. Finally, each galaxy is divided into 4 quadrants (north, south, east, and west). Each quadrant is watched by a Kaio. The Kaios also reside in Otherworld. The guardians in these quadrants are charged with the protection of their individual quadrant.
For better organization, the Guardians divided themselves into clans. These clans consisted of the Phoenixes, the Dragons, the Leviathans, the Unicorns, and the Pegasus. The Dragons were the strongest of the clans. They consisted of the Guardians with the greatest battle ability. They were generally the bodyguards to the Kais. The Phoenixes consisted of the intellectuals. They were the wisest of the clans, and generally took up leadership roles among groups of Guardians. The Leviathans consisted of the Guardians who were very adept at manipulating Ki. They weren't very strong or very smart, but they were very good at finding new uses for Ki. Some of the best-known Leviathans were the people of the planet Yaardat. The Unicorn Clan was consisted of the most faithful and loyal of the Guardians. They were well versed in the ancient arts of healing. Several Namekians were members of this clan.
However, millennia ago, the Guardians, as well as several of the Kaioshins, mysteriously vanished. Where they went and what became of them no one knows, but ancient texts vaguely refer to a battle in the Heavens. A monster of immense power supposedly wrecked havoc on the universe. Somehow, some of the Guardians came under the influence of this demon. The Guardians were no more.
However, some guardians survived. They passed down the little knowledge that remained down to their chosen students, known as Shuengs. Nujen, the last of the Phoenixes, began this practice. Thousands of years passed, and now the role of Guardian is left to Yajen. Yajen was known to frequent a planet known as Earth, located in the eastern section of the Universe and the northern quadrant of the galaxy. It is one of the few planets left under the watchful gaze of the Guardian. However, that does not mean this planet was without heroes. Few can forget the exploits of Son Goku and his friends...
Son Goku...the Saiya-jin who was raised on Earth. He achieved the legendary status of Super Saiya-jin and killed the evil tyrant Frieza. Vegeta, Prince of all Saiya-jins, also achieved the level of a Super Saiya- jin, and although he was originally one of Goku's rivals, he too settled on Earth. However, following the death of Frieza, evil androids terrorized the Earth. Piccolo fused with Kami, becoming a "Super Namek."[1] Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, and Mirai Trunks (who had come from the future to warn about the androids) trained in the Room of Spirit and Time, in which their power increased phenomenally. The power boosts were needed when a being known as Cell appeared, who absorbed the androids. Not even Goku's Super Saiya-jin strength was enough to defeat Cell. However, Super Saiya-jin Gohan unleashed his hidden power and ascended to the next level (Super Saiya-jin 2). When Cell was about to be defeated, he attempted to self- destruct. Goku used Instantaneous Movement[2] to transport Cell to the planet of the North Kaio, King Kai. Although Goku died, Cell returned stronger than ever. In a final Kamehameha duel, 11-year-old Gohan finally killed Cell.
However, since Earth's dragonballs had already been used to revive Goku, he could not be brought back. Dende, the new God of Earth, decided to recreate a new set of dragonballs like the Namekian ones. These new dragonballs would grant two wishes, and could wish back people more than once. Thus, the dragonballs could not be used for about a year. Goku trained in the Otherworld, as Vegeta continued his training on earth inside his gravity machine. A year later, Goku was brought back to life. However, a new threat had emerged. A Saiya-jin named Brolli claimed to be the legendary Super Saiya-jin. After an intense battle, Brolli was finally defeated. The universe was safe again...or was it? Following the battle, a lone warrior who had been observing revealed himself...

*: I don't want to spoil the surprise!
[1]: A Super Namek is not a transformation. It just refers to the powers that Piccolo now obtains.
[2]: Instantaneous Movement sounds a lot better than Instant Transmission.
Who is this warrior? What does he want with our heroes? The Prologue will explain all!
