Chapter Two:

Trunks sat in a freezing, damp cave, trying to figure out what he was going to do. He was hiding from the grown ups, mainly his dad, who were out looking for him and Goten. Trunks knew that when they found him and knew that Goten had disappeared, he was going to be in big trouble. In the distance, Trunks felt his dad's aura, so he pressed his down even farther than before. Feeling that his dad had flown past him and had not noticed him, Trunks let out a sigh of relief.

Slowly, he stood up and started pacing, unaware that someone was in the cave with him. He went back and forth trying to figure out what exactly had happened.

"Argh!!!!! Why did Goten disappear?!?! He was only..."

Trunks suddenly (and conveniently) remembered his mom telling him something about a new invention, recently.

(Flashback)

"Trunks, do you wanna know what I've been working on recently?" Bulma asked her son.

"Fure, 'faasan," Trunks answered with his mouth full of food.

"Well, for the past few weeks I've been working on a condensed version of a time machine. You see, I've wanted to go into the future, to visit your older self, for a very long time," Bulma explained.

"That's great, well 'kaasan, gotta go! Goten and I are gonna play at his house today!" Trunks said

(End Flashback)

"Oh shimatta," Trunks whispered. "It looks like I gotta pay more attention to Okaasan when she's talk-"

Two arms grabbed Trunks from behind, cutting him off.

"Did you think you could get away from me, gaki(brat)?"

"'Tousan?" Trunks whispered.

The person let go of him and Trunks turned around. Sure enough, there was Vegeta clad in his favorite saiya-jin armor, standing there with his arms akimbo. He was glaring at Trunks and you could tell that there was gonna be heck to pay.

"Alright, gaki, where is Kakarrot's gaki, so I can deliver you to the onna. She won't let me have dinner until you're both back there in one piece," Vegeta said.

Trunks gulped, he could see his tombstone now "Here Lies Trunks Briefs Who Died for the Crime of Playing in His Okaasan's Lab." He looked around for a last minute escape route. His father was pretty much blocking the cave entrance, much to Trunks' dismay. It looked like he would have to quit running and face the music.

"Ano, 'tousan, Goten isn't here," Trunks said.

"What do you mean Kakarrot's gaki isn't here? You two can't be separated!" Vegeta exclaimed.

"Well you see 'tousan, he just kinda... disappeared," Trunks finished.

"NANI?!?!?!?!" Vegeta yelled.

Trunks winced. He was knee deep in it now. Very deep, almost waist deep to be exact.

"Well we were playing in 'kaasan's lab and then I found a watch. I dared Goten to put it on and mess around with it. A bit later, he disappeared," Trunks explained quickly.

Vegeta glared at him and didn't say anything. He grabbed Trunks' arm and then flew off, dragging Trunks.

######

"C'mon on kid," the familiar looking grown up said to Goten.

Goten cocked his head at him. Why does he look so familiar? Goten thought.

Goten kept trying to figure out who he was but it never came. The guy had lavender hair and blue eyes like Trunks. He was tanned and he wore a black tank top and smoky gray pants. He also kinda sounded like Trunks and even acted like him a bit.

Ah hah! He's Trunks' cousin! Goten triumphantly thought.

The young man knocked on Goten's head.

"Hello, anyone home?" The guy asked.

"Oro? Did you say something?" Goten asked.

"I asked what your name was. I forgot what you said," the man told him.

"My name is Son Goten. What's yours? Are you Trunks' cousin?" Goten asked.

The man sweat-dropped. "I'm Briefs Trunks, and I'm not my cousin."

"You're not Trunks. He isn't that tall."

The young man sighed. "You have some real issues kid. First you say that you're Goku's son, when he's been dead for 21 years and then you say that I'm not who I am. Are you trying to be difficult of something?"

"No, I don't even know what difficult means. I just wanna eat."

Trunks smiled at him. "Well then, I think we can agree on something. Follow me, 'kaasan should have dinner ready by now."

Goten grinned up at him and skipped happily after him. The guy led him to Capsule Corp.'s kitchen, a path that Goten knew very well. He actually started to run ahead and went straight inside the kitchen.

"Konbanwa(good evening) Bulma, Vegeta-san. Gomen nasai that you had to wait for me. Trunks and I were playing in your lab again Bulma-san and then Trunks dared me to do something and I did it and disappeared!" Goten said.

He looked around for Vegeta. "Eh? Where's Vegeta-san? Is he still training?"

Then Goten caught sight of a woman coming in with a pot full of stew. She had long blue hair that was pulled back into a pony tail. She was smiling and Goten noticed that she looked like Bulma, except older. The woman saw him and then smiled at him. Soon, her smile turned into a look of shock. Her mouth was opening and closing until she finally managed to say the word "Goku...?"

Goten looked confused. Everyone here was calling him Goku. No one at home ever called him that, well Vegeta would sometimes call him the "Kakarrot Clone" but that was it.

"Why are all of you people calling me my dad's name? I'm Goten!"

The woman looked even more shocked when he spoke.

"You're Goku's son?" the woman whispered.

"Hai, I'm the youngest. I also have an oniichan! He's the best oniichan in the world!" Goten stated proudly.

Trunks came in the room 5 minutes after that.

"Goten, don't run away like that, okay? You could have gotten lost," Trunks said. "Kaasan? Are you okay? You're going pale. Let me help you with that."

Bulma fainted as soon as Trunks took the pot of stew away. Goten caught her before Bulma hit the ground, which was hard considering he was just barely came past her waist. Goten gently set Bulma on the floor and looked up at Trunks. He was staring at Goten with a look of relief and smiled at him.

"Thanks Son-san," Trunks said.

Goten beamed up at him. Then cocked his head confusedly.

"You don't have to call me by my last name, just call me Goten... ano, I don't know your name," Goten said.

"I told you, I'm Briefs Trunks."

"You can't be! Trunks isn't that tall! And he doesn't look so old," Goten said.

Trunks sweat-dropped. How slow can this kid be?

"What year was it when you left, Goten-san?" Trunks asked.

"Ano, I don't remember."

Trunks hit his head. This was going to a very long day. Why, of all things to happen, did a kid who didn't even remember what year it was, come to his house?

"Oh, now I remember! It was 779 A.D.!"

"HOLY CRAP!!!!! YOU'RE FROM THE PAST!!!!!" Trunks yelled.

Both Goten and Trunks peered at each other curiously. Each one looked somewhat triumphant.

"That explains why you say you're Trunks!" Goten cried.

"And that explains why you say you're Goku's second child!" Trunks said.

"Should we get Bulma-san off the floor and onto the couch?" Goten asked.

"Hai, that would be a good idea," Trunks agreed.

Trunks lifted up his mother and left Goten all alone in the kitchen.

######

Trunks tried to desperately brake away from his father's death grip. Vegeta held fast to him and even tightened his grip.

"Tousan, I didn't do anything! At least not on purpose! I swear I didn't!" Trunks yelled.

"Gaki, there is no way you're getting out of this, now shut up, you're starting to annoy me," Vegeta said.

Trunks fell silent and tried to think of an escape route. One idea popped into his brain, this one would surely free him from his father's clutches! Digging into his pocket, Trunks discreetly pulled out a capsule. He hit the top and flew it in front of him and his dad. A large porterhouse steak appeared in midair. Vegeta instantly released his grip on Trunks and dove after the steak.

Trunks flew of as soon as he was released. As fast as he could go, Trunks flew until he had arrived in at a secluded area. He landed and lowered his power level to the point he was almost to his knees, from the weakness. He crawled to a tree and fell asleep against it a fugitive again.

######

Trunks woke up to a growling stomach. He pulled out another capsule, pressed the top, and threw it. A fridge emerged from the smoke and Trunks half ran, half stumbled to it. Feeling that his father was back and Capsule Corp. Trunks figured that it was safe to give himself a little more power, but only enough so that he would blend in like another human being. Trunks sat back and tried to figure out a way to bring Goten back. An idea popped into his head. It was a really obvious and he would have hit himself for it.

Trunks grabbed out another capsule and threw it. This time an aircar emerged out from the smoke. It was okay that he drove, as long as no one saw him. His mom had taught him how to drive when he was seven and Trunks wasn't half bad. Climbing in, Trunks prayed that they would have exactly what he was looking for.

End

Thank you for reading! I hope you enjoyed this chappie! Again, I'm sorry for the delay, but like I said, I didn't know if anyone would like it, so I kept revising it. Please R&R!!!!!
