A Christmas to remember (Christmas DBZ fan Fic)

Trunks walked in out of the cold. In truth he had been helping rebuilding the leftovers of Westcity. It had been three years since he destroyed the Androids and Cell. And his mother had been so proud of him (and of learning about his father doing something noble for once.). On his way home he stopped at one of the few shops that had opened back up. He smiled as he looked at the simple clothes they had to offer and bought something for his mother. He smiled at the thought of her seeing the first Christmas gift in nearly seven years.

At Capsule Corp.

Bulma watched the snow and smiled. She walked into the computer lab and began work on restoring some of the lesser needed fuctions. She smiled brightly as her work paid off and the inner garden got back the artifical day light that her father had designed. It was nice to see it all working again. She was about to start the simple robot drones to work planting some fruits and vegetables in there when she heard something at the door. Thinking that it was Trunks she walked and opened it up. In fell a large man. He was taller than most of the guys she knew. And he had strange red hair. His green and black outfit looked weird but what worried her was the red ribbon insigna on it. He got up and she saw the unfinished face of android 16. He slumped against the wall. His eyes trained on her. "Where am I? Who am I? Who are you? What is going on?" he asked before the sound of some of the machinal parts starting to thaw happened. She looked at him and remembered Trunks telling her about how one of Gero's own creations had fought against Cell. How it gave its life for Gohan and for them. And this looked to be him.

At the stores.

Trunks finished the shopping for the Christmas presents. He tried to think what his father would have said about this. "Why are you wasting time on such a thing?" He believe Vegeta would say. He grinned and headed toward home. When he got there he saw the open door and then saw the unfinished Android on the floor. He looked at his mother and started to perfrom a Ki blast to destroy it. Bulma stopped him. "What son. Isn't this the one you told me about in the other time line?" She asked. "YEs mother, but the other androids wheren't as evil as the ones here. He could be like the other two and he was stronger than both of them." Trunks said. "Son you where strong enough to destroy Cell in his first form. I think that you could handle him. Besides it is Christmas and he's unfinished. Maybe we should see what we can do." Bulma said. "Fine, but if it tries anything than I'm blasting it. Alright?" Trunks said. "Alright, now help me get him to the lab." she told him. Trunks carried the Android to the table and laid him down. Bulma began doing checks and noticed little things about him. Not only was he not finished but several of his processors and relays where damaged. It must have been when the androids 17 and 18 of this universe destroyed Gero's lab. She began doing searches for compatible parts, but most of the things they needed they just didn't have. That's when Trunks opened his mouth and regreted it. "You know mom we could go back a few years to the other time line and Ummm let them take a look at him. The Bulma of that time should have all of the materials that he needs." Trunks said. "You know you're right. Good idea Trunks. Don't know why I didn't think of it myself." She said. Trunks hit his forehead. "Why did I say that? I could have been happily enjoying this Christmas and not have to worry about a stupid Android." Trunks thought to himself.

Bulma walked with Trunks and modified the time machine to run off of the same power sorce as the space craft that her father designed. When she did she simplily converted one of those crafts to be the Time Machine. Once it was ready Trunks carried him into the craft and looked at Bulma. "Do you want to come too?" He asked. "Yes I do. I would like to see how things would have worked out if your father had lived." She said. They started it up and soon it was heading back about 7 years after the Cell Games. As soon as the time portal opened Trunks walked out and noticed that it was still snowing. He looked at her confused. "Silly I set it arrive on the same day as we left. only just a few years after the Cell Games." She said with a smile. He looked at her and grinned. He picked up the android and they walked up to Capsule Corp. Building. The scanners picked up Bulma and Trunks so there was no vistior signals that went off.

Inside of the Capsule Corp. building.

Bulma looked at her son Trunks. She smiled remembering her son from the future. She knew that he would grow up to be a well mannered young man. And not as pigheaded as his father. She heard the door open and nearly fell out of her chair. There was an older version of her, and Trunks! She walked over to him. "Trunks???" She asked. "Yes mother. Mother and I wanted to come and visit for a little while." He said. She looked at the older her wearing a sweatshirt and a pair of unmatching Sweat pants. "Did I forget how to dress?" She asked jokingly. "Ha ha ha. There's not a lot of choices in our future." Future Bulma said. "We also wanted to bring something here." Trunks said as he laid android 16 down. Bulma from the present looked at him in shock. "But he died. I mean I heard how his head got mashed." She said. "This is the one from our time. It seems that Gero never finished him. Somehow he woke up and stumbled into Capsule Corp. Mom thought it might have been from some of the basic programming that Gero did, but we don't know. And since it was Christmas we where hoping to get him to working right. In Memory of the other 16." future Trunks said.

Vegeta walked down and saw two Bulmas and an older trunks. He held his head and walked over to the cabinet. "Woman where is that asprin. I'm seeing things and I suppose it is from that Stuff you had me drink called Egg Nog." He said. Bulma smiled and so did the future one. "You got him to do something?" Future Bulma asked. "Yeah, he's accually turned into a really good father. I still can't get him to take out the trash though." Bulma said. Trunks stood there and listened to them talk about his father and he walked into the room. "It's been a while father. How has your Trunks been?" He asked. Vegeta looked at him. "So it is you. And that would be your mother from your time?" He asked. "Yes.?" Trunks said. "What I really need. Two of her here. Now I'll really need to find that Asprin. One is hard enough to live with. Two is going to be impossible." He said

Trunks smiled as he listened to his dad. Soon he saw the Trunks from that time come in as well as Goten. "So there I am, but who is that. It can't be Gohan." He thought to himself.
