Thank you to all those who have reviewed, for I believe that without you,
none of this would be possible or continued
In this chap you'll get the information on what happened during Trunks'
training.
Part 4
The city in which Trunks and Kuro had stopped in next was quite dreary and sad. For some unknown reason in this parellel universe it rained constantly. It was as though this was the horrible existance in which Trunks, himself had lived in. Though, this theory was false it was true that Kuro had known of this place. To him it held many horrible memories and now he was going to put an end to those memories really soon. For this was the realm in which he dwelled for the first years of his destroyed life. All of his pain was for but one man alone, and that man was Trunks.
Kuro smile showed demonic enjoyment. The man who humiliated him and destroyed everything in his life was now going to pay dearly for what he'd doen so long ago.
Flash back-
"No longer will the two of you go around destroying this world, I've come back to put an end to you and that abomination in which you call a child." Trunks had stepped out of his time machine waving his sword slowly as the two androids laughed.
"Hey, sis, I think this guy wants to take our kid away. I mean, turning him into one of us was hard enough but now that we've succeeded he wants to take him from us." 17 grinned as 18 showed mock terror.
"Fool we know that you went into the future so we went out into space to find something special. Show him 17." With that 17 teleported in front of Trunks and rammed him into the side of a building. Though this attack was nothing, Trunks hadn't even seen it coming.
"While you were off helping those others we found the dragonballs. With the extra boost in power given to us now we're at least three times stronger than before." 18 laughed as she motioned to the child whom she referred to as her own.
"I bet even my little child could handle you." 18 grinned.
"You mean that kuro akuma." Trunks spat as he stood to his feet with a grin. 18 checked her memory banks and soon discovered the meaning of Trunks' words.
"How dare you call him a devil! He is perfect, beyond anything you know of! I'll handle you myself. 17 watch my child."
Trunks only grinned. He had tricked those fools into believing he'd only been gone to one timeline while in reality he had ventured to several universes becoming stronger and faster than ever before. He would put an end to these abominations and that demonic creature which she called her child. In the blink of an eye Trunks used his sword to slice 18 in half verticly. The child watched as he supposed mother was killed instantly. 17 dashed into the scene and attacked Trunks blindly and was kill instantly.
"Disgusting. Worthless androids." With that Trunks turned to the child.
"Kuro Akuma. That is what you are." Trunks raised his sword to slay the young child but didn't. Instead he turned and walked away while speaking to the little child.
"They killed so many, but I shall never do such a thing. I'm not a monster, but you are. I can only hope you learn to live little boy." The man blasted into the sky leaving the broken and sad child with the destroyed and gruesome carcasses of the only ones who ever took care of him. Silently, the half-android vowed revenge on this man, the man who took everything from him. Trunks.
END of Flash back-
Kuro looked at his apprentice and grinned. The Trunks of the current time had wished back many of those who had been killed by the androids with a stronger type of dragonball. The power levels of the warriors here were much more powerful than the previous time. Kuro smiled and spoke.
"My apprentice here is where your skills will be put to the test...." Kuro started but Trunks lifted a hand.
"Don't, I will win no matter what, I can not be defeated as you stated in our training. Remember?" Trunks asked as he placed his hand back at his side. Before Kuro could answer the rain began to pour down even harder. Trunks looked to the sky and stared blankly at it.
"Kuro, in the eight year span of my learning of your fighting style, you have yet to teach me the ultimate technique. I have very little patience on this matter and the curiosity of this distracts me constantly during battle. It took longer for me to get rid of the others in the previous time we visited becuase my mind continually questioned what it could be." Trunks stated as Kuro grinned.
"Though you have gained the speed of the Tenrai Zansatsu. The ultimate technique requires much more speed than that. In actuallity, the speed required to perform the finaly technique is ten times faster than the speed in which the Tenrai Zansatsu must have. Once you've found the one thing that pushes you to the edge the speed you require will come effortlessly." Kuro grinned as Trunks retained the same emotionless glare.
"Then, I'll ust train to become fater." Trunks stated and Kuro smiled.
"Unfortunatelly, this is an attack that requires rage and anger, which are emotions, and if you haven't forgotten, emotion is something you long since parted with. Meaning you will probably never achieve the final technique." Kuro said as trunks shrugged.
"Doesn't matter, I have the power I need to take revenge on those who have wronged me and those who have deserted me. I care not for such a move, when I have all of the power and speed I require to get the job done." Trunks spoke and Kuro applauded him.
"I see that you are becoming more and more of a fighter each day, your philosophies are quite interesting, but as I was going to say in the beginning. Don't underestimate those who dwell here, if you do then prepare for more wounds other than the one I gave to you during our training." Kuro grinned as Trunks turned to him and nodded.
Up until this point the scar upon Trunks' face had never been mentioned. It began from above his right eye and ended along the right side of his jaw line. A straight and near perfect cut. He had recieved the mark from learning the Tenrai Zansatsu.
Flashback-
"The Saishuuheiki is a powerful weapon, once you are able to weild it you will be unstoppable just like me." Kuro grinned as Trunks practiced swinging the weapon around.
"Mukizu-Jutsu." Kuro started as Trunks turned and looked at him ready to become strong so that he would never have to hurt again.
"Mukizu-Jutsu, is Japanese for Perfect Skill and that is the art in which you shall be taught. But first you must understand what makes a fighter great. Is it un matched strength or is it the ability to take any kind of beating? The answer would be neither. A powerful and strong fighter is fast and quick. No matter the wieght or power of something, the speed at which it hits you determines how painful it will be." Kuro then walked toward Trunks and bumbed him slightly.
"See that didn't hurt at all did it?" Kuro asked as he disappeared and then Trunks' body was sprawled out across the floor as Kuro reappeared.
"My strength hadn't changed but my speed did and telling from that blow, it hurts like hell?" Kruo inquired as his apprentice stood up.
"I understand, master...." Trunks started
"Do not refer to me as master for that is for the weak, you are the Saishuuheiki and I am but your wielder. You have the power but I will make good use of that power so you don't loose control." Kuro grinned as he handed Trunks ten black bands.
"These are no regular bands they are advanced gravity enhancing divices. Place one on both ankles, above both knees, one on your waist, one on both wrists, above both your elbows and finally one around your neck." Kuro instructed and Trunks obeyed. After Trunks put the bracelets into place Kuro pressed a remote and then Trunks nearly hit the floor.
"You must be able to move freely and that's what I'll train you first. Once you have successfull reached maximum movement while wearing the other twenty bracelets, then training will begin." with that, Kuro instructed Trunks to run for as long and as fast as he could.
Three years went by and finally Trunks had achieved what Kuro had asked of him. Reaching his normal full speed while wearing all thirty of the weight bracelets.
"Very good apprentice, now the training will begin. As I said before you will be learning the Mukizu-Jutsu, the Perfect Skill. These techniques are only powerful if they are used with ultra speed. Hence the reason for you're amplified gravity training. Now on to the first and most simple of all of the Mukizu-Jutsu techniques, the Mukizu Shuumatsu, Perfect End. It is a diagonal thrust of the sword that pins the opposition to the ground." Kuro demonstrated the technique and Trunks observed.
"Next is the Nenshou Batsuro or Burning Fate. This attack will be much more poweful if used by you because of your ability to reach Super Saiyan. You must power up and transfer that glowing energy around your form to the sword, then charge with your speed and slice the opponent in half, this will take practice but you shall learn. Now watch." Kuro executed the move and then returned to Trunks
"Next is the Hateshi Kireme or Limit Break. One must dash at his opponent quickly and throw the sword in a fashion that will make the sword spin constantly." Kuro dashed past Trunks and pitched his sword forward. The sword cut through multiple trees and then Kuro dashed over near it and grabbed it in mid spin. Trunks was amazed but was determined to learn.
"These are only the simple techniques, there are other's but first let us try these out until you have them down perfectly." Kuro stated as Trunks began to practice the techniques himself.
An entire year pasted and Trunks had successfully learned these techniques now Kuro decided to step up the training and teach his apprentice the more powerful techniques.
"Now pay close attention, this is the Fainaru Tosshin or you may call it the Final Rush attack. This attack depends upon the users speed and his timing. The first attack will behead the opposition. The first move is a horizontal sword swing that brings the sword from the left to the right, the second attack slices the opponent's torse in half. The second attack comes immediately after he is beheaded, the way this works is after the sword comes from the left to the right, it is spun around in the hand so that the blade is parallel to the arm and then the attacker swings back across his body and slices his opponent in half." Kuro used the move in slow motion and then did it even faster.
"Next, is the Tenrai Satsu or Divine Kill, this attack may seem simple but in reality ones speed must be so fast that he can bounce off of the air itself to perform this move. This attack is nothing more than a downward sword slash, but it must be done at a very intense speed. First use your speed to build up momentum and then blast into the air quickly and as soon as you can flip upside down and press your feet against the air. This may sound impossible but if you can reach the level of speed required for the move then you will realize that going at such a speed causes your feet to be able to push off of the atoms in the air giving you that boost you need to strike quick and hard." Kuro and his apprentice then began their training once again.
Once again two years went on and finally Trunks had mastered the five techniques taught to him, but Kuro was about to make it much more difficult he was impressed that Trunks had learned the techniques but while he learned each day the young man lost even more of his heart and his emotions, Kuro knew then that the ultimate technique would always be out of his apprentice's grasp, but the Tenrai Zansatsu wouldn't.
"Now this is close to the final technique of the Mukizu-Jutsu.... the Tenrai Zansatsu aka the Divine Massacre. This attack uses your highest level of speed and attacks from five different spots: above, front, behind, and on both sides. This attack is unblockable not because it attacks five times, but because it attacks five times at the same time." Trunks looked at his teacher with what little hint of amazement or enthusiasm was left and nodded.
"I want to try and stop it, if the speed of the user makes this attack strong then I want to see if I have surpassed your speed yet." Trunks said as he prepared himself. Kuro frowned inwardly and nodded.
"I will not show mercy." With that Kuro disappeared and then used the Tenrai Zansatsu. Trunks blocked all of the attacks but one, the front attack. The blade struck his face and he flew backwards and hit the ground. Blood stained the ground beneath him as Kuro only smiled.
"Like I said, unblockable, luckily I pulled back alot befor I hit you apprentice. Now stand, you must learn this technique, though I doubt you will ever need to use it." Kuro smiled as Trunks covered his right eye which bled badly.
END Flash Back
"Let us not kill anyone yet. I'll let you rest, try to enjoy yourself, apprentice. If you allow yourself to stay in darkness then your surely to never achieve the final technique. I'll take my leave now, and remember apprentice, once we have finished here we will go back to your time and then those who wronged you will get what they deserve." Kuro vanished into the dark shadows once again and this time Trunks flew slowly toward a nearby inn.
He entered the establishment. Inside the floor was covered in a elaborate, rich and vibrant red carpet. Above a clear doom showed the dark sky as the rain bombarded the glass shield. Trunks alked up to the counter and rang for assistance.
A young woman in her early twenties with long brown hair with blonde streaks walked, routinely, to the front desk while reading a list, without looking up she spoke.
"How can I help you?" She asked as her eyes scrolled the pages frantically.
"I'd like a single room." At the sound of Trunks' voice she looked up and gasped. The young womans cheeks burned red as she smiled shyly at Trunks. The young woman quickly began scrambling under the desk and pulled out several keys.
"We have the following rooms open, you can chose the one you'd want, and please forgive me for not paying attention, I'm really sorry." Trunks ignored her words and looked at her name tag.
"Terra, how about you pick one out and I'll take that one." Trunks said in plainly and she smiled as her cheeks turned dark red. She handed Trunks a room and waved him off.
"Well aren't you going to show me where it is?" Trunks asked looking around at several staircases that could be taken. Terra blushed once again and led Trunks to his room.
"If you need anything just call the front desk and I'll bring it immediately." Terra smiled as Trunks ignored her and nodded once she finished her sentence. He walked in and closed the door. Terra held her heart and dreamily smiled.
Once inside Trunks walked to his bed and sat down slowly. Something didn't feel right, he sensed something was wrong, but he couldn't place the feeling. With a shake of his head Trunks laid back and closed his eyes.... whatever the problem was he would fix it, just as he always had. He was perfect and there wasn't anything that was going to change that.
What do ya think? GOOD or bad? Remember always to review. Terra will be very important in further chapters, keep reading to find out what happens next. later
