Capsule Corp...

"When will we find them? They can't have vanished!" ChiChi wailed. During those eight years, Vegeta rebelled against the control over his mind and eventually kicked Bebi out of his body and Kibito Kai freed everyone from Bebi's control. Thus, in doing so, Vegeta killed Bebi. The Tuffle species were officially extinct. Now they only had one problem: finding Goku and Pan. At first they all thought the two were dead. But ChiChi refused to give up looking for them. It has been five years since they started searching and without success.

"I'm going out." Trunks announced. Bulma nodded her acknowledgement and he walked out with a jacket slung over his shoulder. His best friend, Pan, was missing along with the praised hero, Goku. Where could they be, if not dead? He thought. Trunks sat on a bench in the city park, not even wondering how he got there. He always came here at night to meditate, hoping that somehow, he'd sense them. Even though, he'd meditate, he'd always remember when he first woke up.

Flashback

He felt paralyzed. He couldn't move and he kept wondering if Bebi would find him. Trunks started to panic, he sensed his father coming towards him. When Vegeta came into view, Trunks' eyes widened in fear. Vegeta's large fist came down and knocked him out. When he woke up again, he was in a hospital room and he still couldn't feel anything. Then a doctor came, introduced himself and explained what was wrong with Trunks.

"The paralysis is only temporary, you should be on your feet again in a few days or so." The doctor told him.

End Flashback

After Trunks had healed, he went through psychological therapy. They all did to find peace with themselves after this whole ordeal. When they found out that Goku and Pan had disappeared, Pan's parents were inconsolable. ChiChi understood and helped them to cope a little. Eventually, they all found ways to make time go faster and increase productivity to make things progress again. ChiChi kept herself busy by cooking and cleaning. Bulma took care of economic activity. Vegeta just trained, as usual. Trunks and Goten took up construction work. And Bra brought back entertainment centers such as, the mall and movie theaters. Everything seemed to go back to normal for the rest of the world.

Tears came to Trunks' eyes. Then he felt a faint rise in someone's power level. Then he felt another one. He got so excited that he just took off into the air to find out who it belonged to.

Note: The reason why i didn't elaborate on Trunks' POV was because it would be excessive compared to the rest of the chapters.
