Chapter Ten - Resolution

Orion had led the group, save for Trunks who had left for Gloria's with Morgan on his back, into Kahn's base. There they freed the people Omega had imprisoned, including Kahn himself, who was rather surprised at the sight of those before him. "So you're the ones David..."

Orion shook his head. "They're not. I've spoken to Gloria, David created nothing after leaving."

"Then..."

"I am Kibetin, the Supreme Kai, ruler of Otherworld." Kibetin said stepping forward. "My two strongest Grand Kai's," he motioned toward them. "And my greatest warriors, champions of Otherworld." Alex didn't know what to say... he just stared at them in shock. "You're intentions were good Khan, I'll give you that, but the end does not justify the means." with this he glanced at Orion for a moment before looking back. "I'll be keeping my eye on you now, don't screw up."

Khan merely nodded. With that matter handled Orion led them back outside and to Gloria's mansion where they met up with Trunks and Morgan just inside the front door. Gloria looked from Trunks to them, amazement and awe evident on her face. "Trunks and Morgan just finished explaining what happened." she said looking at them. "It's hard to believe..."

Goku put his hand behind his head and laughed. "Yeah, I guess it would be." he said grinning.

Meanwhile Trunks had been watching Orion. "That was Sheba, wasn't it?" he asked at last. The Biodroid merely looked up at him, the pain evident in his eyes. "I thought I felt someone strong fade away while I was in The Chamber..."

"Yeah..." Gohan said sadly. "We saw what happened..." he looked down toward the ground and the mood suddenly soured.

That is, until Trunks spoke up again. "Hey, it's okay. We'll just have Ryuu revive her!" he said looking them over smiling. "The Dragonballs will be fully charged again in a little less than a year."

A new voice, young and deep, spoke from everywhere. "Less than that, my friends." The air shimmered and a form took shape. A moment later a Namek stood in the room with them. "I am Puroken, Tekuta's son."

"Tekuta?" Goku asked.

"The Namek I fused with while we were fighting Omega inside the base." Piccolo informed him. "He's the reason I'm so much stronger." Piccolo smirked. "He and Nail were similar to Kami and I." Goku grinned as the sparring possibilities came to mind but Vegeta merely snorted.

"Indeed." Puroken said. "He was the Guardian and I was his successor. As such, several years ago, he had me make my own set of Dragonballs and he left the old ones fade. Ryuu possesses the power to grant two wishes when summoned. Only one was granted last time so it will only take another month and a half for them to be restored."

"That's great!" Goku cheered. "Then everyone killed by those things Khan made can be brought back!"

Puroken shook his head. "No, they can't. Ryuu can revive only one person at a time."

"But how will you get home?" Orion asked.

Trunks shrugged. "I can wait another year." he said slipping his arm around Morgan's waist. "Mom will be worried but..."

"I can't allow that." Kibetin said with a small smile on his face. "Before I completely forget, which I probably will if I wait much longer, there's something I need to do." He turned to face the Z warriors. "You risked your very existences to help Trunks, to help this world, and to help all of existence itself. This is the least I can do to repay you." He pressed his hand together as if in prayer and a light white aura appeared around them. He bent his fingers so that a space would appear between his hands and from this opening four streams of energy flowed.

Each streamed passed into a different warrior, Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, and Piccolo. As the last of the energy entered their bodies their Halos faded away. He looked over to Pikkon. "You have been dead much longer, everything you knew is gone, however, if you wish to return as well..."

"Come on Pikkon!" Goku cheered. "There's plenty of room for you on Earth. Besides, who are you going to spar with otherwise?"

Pikkon smirked and nodded. Another stream of energy passed into Pikkon's body and his Halo also vanished. Both Rakor and Rainova blinked at him in shock as Gohan asked him how he did that. "I simply gave you some of my life force. Just enough to spark your spirit bodies back into living ones. I would do this for the others who have died but none of them have bodies, and it is bad enough I have done it for." he shook his head. "Anyway, once you are ready, I can return you all home."

Seven Weeks Later, Secluded Location

They'd been met with a small problem as to how to locate the Dragonballs. They didn't have anything to detect them. David had merely gathered them all from collectors. They unanimously decided that Kibetin would be the one to go to Duro's Earth and get the Dragon radar from Capsule Corp. Once he'd returned it was simple to track them all down. Goku and the others had noticed a slight oddity with these Dragonballs. While they were the same size and orange color as theirs the stars were a bright blue.

Now they stood gathered around the base of the Eternal Dragon Ryuu. He looked almost exactly like Shenron but his scales were orange and his under side was a light blue. Its voice was just as deep and booming, however. "I have the power to grant you one wish and one wish only, what is it you desire?"

Trunks looked up at the massive Dragon. "Revive Sheba, restore her to this realm!" he called.

"It shall be done." Ryuu's eyes, a deep glowing green, grew brighter for a moment. "You're wish has been granted. Now I bid you farewell." The Dragon flashed for a moment before disappearing in a shower of sparks. The Dragonballs lifted off the ground and scattered across the planet once more. Standing where the Dragonballs had been a moment before was Sheba. She was looking around in confusion as Orion walked up to her.

Gloria's Mansion, 3 days later

Everyone sat gathered in Gloria's large dinning room around the long table. Gloria couldn't help but grin when she looked at Goku as he sniffed the air. He and the others would be heading back to their own universe, their own Earth, in a few hours. However, Gloria had prepared a 'small' farewell banquet for them all first. The cooks had been rather shocked at the large order of food, after all, their were only nine guests, Goku, Gohan, Trunks, Vegeta, Pikkon, Orion, Sheba, Morgan and the Supreme Kai. Of course, four of them were Sai-jins. Piccolo sat in the corner meditating, or at least trying to.

A few moments later the food was brought into the room, mountains of food. "Ah! Now this is what I'm talking about!" Goku cheered. They'd spent the time talking about the continuing reports of 'The battle of the Angels' as the news had taken to calling the fight against Omega. Most of the world believed that Omega had either been a demon or the devil himself. And so it was that with far more liveliness than Gloria had seen in sometime that all the food was gone within the hour. She and the others gathered in the large entry hall for their final good-byes.

"You sure you don't want to come with us?" Trunks asked Orion and Sheba, Morgan at his side already.

"Thank-you for the offer but this world is our home." Orion said. "Besides, someone needs to be here incase Eve surfaces."

Trunks nodded. "Take care." And with that the gathered warriors were gone.

Capsule Corp.

Upon arriving home Trunks immediately recognized the KI of not only his mother but Chi-Chi as well. He suggested that he speak to them first before they saw the others. So, with Morgan at his side he made his way through the halls and to where to two women sat in Bulma's kitchen drinking coffee and talking. He realized the conversation was about him and his absence.

"Hey mom." Trunks said from the doorway. "I'm back."

Bulma turned and stared at him, the worry on her face fading into relief as she ran over to him and latched on to him in a massive hug. As she pulled back to look at him she caught sight of Morgan. "Where... what... who?" was all she could manage.

"There where and what are rather long stories." he said. "And this is Morgan."

"Nice to meet you." she said nervously.

Trunks took a deep breath. This was going to be interesting. "There's some other people here to see you." he said moving aside. Piccolo and Pikkon were the first to emerge from the shadows but the three Sai-jin were right behind them. The women stared on at them in shock.

Goku just grinned and waved. "Hiya!"

In flash Gohan was behind his mother catching her as she fell. "Well, that went better than I'd expected." he said glancing down at her.

"How..." Bulma began looking at them all.

Trunks smiled as he pulled a can of soda out of the fridge. "I'll explain everything, once Chi-Chi wakes up." he said.
