Chapter Two- Visitor
As Vegeta and Goku landed, they saw exactly what Gohan had described to them moments earlier, and smoldering crater, but nothing else in the area.
"Well something was definitely here." Vegeta growled.
"They are still nearby. "Goku said looking around. "They're trying to hide their chi."
Vegeta closed his eyes, and sent out his chi, and felt that Goku was right.
"Lower your power Kakarott. We need to find them without them finding us." Vegeta whispered.
"You mean you're not just going to surprise them and try to kick their ass?" Goku asked grinning, as he powered down.
"Oh shut up." Vegeta growled, as he started across the field into the forest.
Meanwhile the person that they were searching for, was breathing heavily in a tree, trying to relax.
'Oh shit… they're heading this! Oh my god… I can't breath… It's Vegeta and Goku… I've got to relax or they are going to attack me… Got to explain…'
They boy stayed silent as they passed under the tree he was hiding in. He felt tears come to his eyes, but remained where he was.
'I've got to talk to Goku alone… Vegeta will attack me right away, I can see that. Goku may listen to my story though. He has to listen!'
Vegeta was getting aggravated by the fact that he could no longer keep a lock on the person's chi.
"Kakarott, this is stupid." Vegeta growled.
"It was your idea." Goku pointed out, as he tried to focus on the person's chi again.
'I've got an idea… The time machine has a lot of energy in it left from the trip, if I power it up Vegeta may go to figure out what that is… Hopefully they'll split up so that I can talk to Goku alone…'
(AN- I think we all know who is hiding in the tree now…, Yup no other then Mirai Trunks!)
Mirai Trunks hurriedly pushed long purple bangs out of his eyes, before concentrating on starting up the time machine, suddenly he felt it's power roar back into existence. It was obvious it wasn't a humans energy, but Trunks prayed that Vegeta would still go to investigate.
Trunks watched with happiness as his father jumped into the air and sped back to where the time machine was.
'Please don't destroy it.' Trunks prayed as he jumped down in front of Goku.
Goku looked froze for a moment, and then got into a fighting position.
"Wait Goku! I don't want to fight! I'm here to help you!" Trunks blurted out quickly.
"What?" Goku asked, relaxing his form slightly.
Trunks sighed.
"I'll explain all, but please just here me out." Trunks continued.
"You know you look familiar…" Goku said, pondering.
Trunks hesitated for a moment, but knew to gain Goku's trust he was going to have to tell him everything.
"Please swear not to tell anyone… but I am Vegeta's and Bulma's son from the future."
"Trunks?" Goku asked with a look of confusion on his face.
"B-But how do you know my name?" Trunks asked with his mouth gaping open.
"Because you've already been born… So you are like an older version of Trunks, right?" Goku asked, amazed.
Trunks paused.
"Wait! Did you say I've already been born now?" Trunks asked.
Goku nodded.
"Did you just fight Frieza?" Trunks asked getting nervous now.
"No." Goku answered, shaking his head. "We haven't seen him for over a year."
"This time is different then mine then!" Trunks gasped, realization dawning over him.
"Uh…ok…" Goku replied, confused.
"Goku in my time… things didn't go as they were supposed to… Good didn't win over evil in my time…"
And with this Trunks began the heart wrenching tale of his time.
Vegeta meanwhile had found the time machine.
"What the hell is this contraption? Stupid thing! Led me here for no reason!" Vegeta growled, about ready to blow the machine up.
However he suddenly paused seeing the word 'Hope' on the side.
"Infernal thing… at least I know it doesn't belong to anyone who would work for Frieza. They would never express any means of hope."
Vegeta was silent, as an odd feeling surged over him staring at the machine.
Finally he turned and started back to where Goku was.
Upon seeing Goku with the purple haired boy, the same feeling came over him again.
"Kakarott… Who is this?" Vegeta asked, making both Trunks and Goku jump out of their conversation.
"He's a friend Vegeta." Was all Goku said, as he helped a distraught Trunks to his feet.
Vegeta knew there was more to the story, but didn't press for details, as the kid already looked like he was about to faint from shock.
"And he'll be staying at my home." Goku continued.
A grateful Trunks looked up at Goku and nodded.
"Then why don't you tell me who he really is?" Vegeta persisted, finally letting his temper take over from his logic.
"Vegeta…" Goku said in a warning tone.
"It's okay Goku. It doesn't matter if I've already been born here, and your time period is different, right?" Trunks asked sadly.
The three of them were silent for a moment.
"I'm from the future. My name is Trunks." Was all Trunks had to stay, to make Vegeta's eyes widen in awe.
"Danger may be coming."
Author's Note: Short I know, but I just had to get the point across, the Mirai Trunks is here! But will he stay since the time is different? Will the androids even attack? (if you paid attention in the first chapter you'll know that one!) Anyway, email me at vegetaztwin@hotmail.com or just review! ^^
