War for the Universe

[NOTE: The DBZ characters are taken from two time periods. Period one is in the Buu saga, before the tournament (a few minor changes though). The other is the Future Trunks timeline, two years after he beat that times Cell. Important to know so you understand the strengths of all characters involved here. This prologue is obviously before that, it ends the day the Cell games end.]

Prologue

Location: Deep space, Lab Omega.

[Project Log 3721, 3:41 pm (verbal recording)] I've been keeping my eyes on the instruments more then ever before. After the, incident, last week I've been a bit worried. My fears were confirmed this morning when Unit 6 activated itself. I can't seem to override the organic brains no matter what coding I implant. Still, Unit 6 did obey the imbedded orders, even if it wouldn't listen to my own verbal commands. I had to use the remote switch to deactivate the thing. A simple task on such a low model but if this were to happen to a more advanced unit...... Still, plans are otherwise going smoothly. I've completed the Space Bridge so I'll be able to send them where I want with no trouble. Those fools wont know what hit them!

[Project Log 4025, 5:09 pm (verbal recording)] I've just picked up three new "Candidates" that will do nicely. One of them is quite large and should be compatible with my new design, the Gamma Series. The other two will be the last of the Delta Series. If my calculations were right, then I'll only make one Gamma. Two much power to risk more than that.

[Project Log 4521, 8:21 am (verbal recording)] The three candidates from last month are still in cryonics, however I've picked up a fourth whom I'll be testing my Omega 2 design on. Unlike it's Omega 1 counterpart it'll be adapted like the other units. Only the Omega 1 will be grown as that takes far to long.

[Project Log 5391, 2:07 am (typed entry)] I've fixed the self control problem, I think. At least when I bring a unit on-line it obeys my commands. They're better than I'd hoped too. The organic brains still there allow them to interact like a normal person instead of mindless drones like the first five attempts. I've begun work of the four most advanced units yet back on Earth. Units 16, 17, 18, and one I've named Matrix. I have doubts about 16 and Matrix however. They're power may be more than they can control.

[Project Log 6001, 1:13 pm (typed recording)] I've decided to proceed with Omega 3 just to see if I can. I doubt it'll be needed, however one never knows these things.

[Project Log 7891, 12:19 pm (verbal recording)] I've finally finished! They're ready to go! Not to mention so is my double! I think it and unit 19, both fall backs to the Beta Series, should do fine against those fools. If not I'll let 17 and 18 deal. The others will remain off-line unless they are needed.

[Project Log 7892, 4:12 pm (verbal recording)] Unbelievable events on Earth! A time traveler interfered. However he brought Omega 1 with him, fortunate since they destroyed mine! This is impossible but it's happening. My double and 19 both destroyed. 17 and 18 absorbed. 16 a failure. If Omega 1 can't pull this off......... I'll have no choice. I'll bring Matrix online. And his Omega 3 brother I just completed, Mainframe. I don't see how they could possibly beat Cell though.......

[Project Log 7893, 1:37 pm (verbal recording)] They did it! Impossible as it seems they destroyed Cell! That little brats even stronger than his father! At least Goku's dead, but now I've got to deal with his bratty son and the others! I've already brought Matrix and Mainframe on-line but a storm around the lab is preventing me from transporting them back to Earth. But once it...... (Unintelligible sounds. Presumed screaming and explosions. Unknown female voice:) Is he dead? (Unknown male voice:) He's headless isn't he? (Female:) But can't he regenerate? (Male:) He's human, babe. Or rather, was. (Female:) Oh yeah. That's stupid. Not being able to regenerate. What was that he said about the storm? (Male:) Exactly what that screen says. There's a magnetic storm outside. We can't leave till it passes. That could be a long time, even a few years. (Female:) It's not like we need to rush though. It's no like we're getting any older........ (Microphone destroyed.)
