Just a little side note, Mirai Trunks is from the future where Goku died from the heart virus. You all should know what I'm talking about anyhow. Anyway, as my lawyers keep telling me, I really *don't* own the characters of DBZ. That's right. Nothing. No Goku, no Vegeta, no Gohan, no Trunks! But I'm not giving up that easily! I'll find a way, I promise you! Tigerlily won't rest until she has her own Mirai Trunks!

Anyway, enjoy the story.

The Return of Mirai Trunks Chapter Four:

{In The Normal Timeline}

"You really are me....aren't you?" Trunks suddenly asked fifteen minutes after the two had left Capsule Corp. Mirai Trunks smiled at him as he nodded.

"In a way, yes. But it's a little complicated." Mirai Trunks said.

"That's ok, I really wanna know." Trunks said as Mirai Trunks smiled at him again.

"Ok. To start off I should probably tell you about the first time the other Z fighters met me. It is where the whole story starts off. Let's see....oh I've got it. You see, in my time, all of the Z fighters had already been killed by the Andriods. My mother, er, well, *our* mother, decided to build a time machine to go back in time to a point before the Andriods arrived, and to warn Goku and the others; and to also give Goku the heart medicine. As you might have already heard, Goku caught a deadly heart virus, and was supposed to die from it." Mirai Trunks said.

"But you prevented that when you gave him the medicine, didn't you?" Trunks asked as Mirai Trunks nodded.

"Yes. And because I did, Goku lived and was able to help fight the Andriods of this time. I arrived three years before the arrival of the Andriods, but also, two years before my own birth. So naturally, that presented some problems, on Father's part, when I fought and killed Frieza and his father as a Super Saiyan." Mirai Trunks said.

"Dad told me about Frieza once. He said that he was responsible for blowing up the planet Vegeta-sei and killing all the Saiyans. Dad told me that only he and 'Kakarrot' are the only Saiyans still alive. The only pure blooded ones anyway. Mom once told me that Dad was talking about Goten's dad whenever he said 'Kakarrot' because it was his Saiyan name." Trunks said. Mirai Trunks smiled as he raised a lavandar eyebrow.

"Kakarrot, huh? Does Father *ever* just call him Goku?" Mirai Trunks asked as Trunks shook his head.

"Nope. Not that I remember." Trunks said as Mirai Trunks nodded.

"Why am I not surprised?" Mirai Trunks said with a chuckle.

"So tell me more." Trunks said.

"So anyway, the reason I transformed into a Super Saiyan when I fought Frieza was to basically freak him out. Worked too. Unfortunately, when I did, and Father saw me, it only made him even more pissed off than he is normally. But that's beside the point. I beat the shit out of Frieza, then finished off his father. Afterwards I detransformed and told the others where and when Goku would be arriving back on Earth." Mirai Trunks said.

"But while we were waiting, Gohan asked me if I had been a Super Saiyan when I defeated Frieza and his father. I said yes, and of course, Father called me a liar." Mirai Trunks said with a smile.

"I don't get it. Why would Dad call you a liar?" Trunks asked.

"Well, since only he and Goku were the last remaining Saiyans, he claimed that there was no way I could have Saiyan blood. But since I was from the future-" Mirai Trunks began.

"You did!" Trunks finished. Mirai Trunks smiled as he nodded his head.

"Now you're getting it. Anyway, when Goku finally did arrive, the two of us stepped aside to talk, by ourselves. I tested some of my best moves on him to see if he really was a great as my mother's stories always inclined. And of course, they were true. In anycase, I was impressed, and I told him who I really was only after he promised not to tell anyone else." Mirai Trunks said.

"Why?" Trunks asked.

"At that time, both Mom and Father couldn't be in the same room with each other without starting a fight. So if they had found out that I was their future son, chances are they would have panicked, and hense...." Mirai Trunks said, trailing off as Trunks gulped.

"I, er, *we* wouldn't have been born. Good call." Trunks said as Mirai Trunks laughed.

"Anyway, I left shortly after, but returned again when the Andriods actually did show up to help the Z fighters fight them. Unfortunately in the middle of the fight with a different Andriod, Goku suddenly got his heart disease instead of earlier like I had predicted. To make matters worse, Andriod Twenty, who was discovered to be none other than Dr. Gero himself, took off on foot to his hidden lab in the mountains." Mirai Trunks explained.

"While we were still dealing with Seventeen and Eighteen, and yet another Andriod that I *hadn't* known about, another Andriod of Dr. Gero's showed up. Cell. I'm sure you've heard of Cell. You must have." Mirai Trunks said as Trunks nodded.

"You mean that mutant grasshopper freak Mom told me about? Yeah, I heard about him....Gohan kicked his sorry green ass." Trunks said with a smirk.

"Um...yeah, that's one way of putting it. Let's see, well....that's about the end of my story. I went back to my time after that. There's nothing else to say I guess....oh! Except what you heard me tell Mom. I defeat the Andriods in my time, then finished of Cell." Mirai Trunks said.

"And you decided to come back for a visit, right?" Trunks asked as Mirai Trunks nodded.

"Yup. It was my mom's idea. Hey, look at that. We're here." Mirai Trunks said as the white house came into view.

"Great story....um....Mirai right?" Trunks asked as Mirai Trunks nodded.

"It'll cause a whole lot less headaches that way. Trust me." Mirai Trunks said with a laugh as the two landed infront of Goku's house.
