-17 Years Into The Future!-

A young boy of only 16 years bowed before the evil tyrant Frieza before him. He had the bluest of eyes, soft lavender hair, and the face identical to Prince Vegeta. He focused his eyes upon the ground as he received a lecture of failing one of his missions. "Foolish, stupid, weakling monkey! How dare you fail your mission! Did you not think I would not be infuriated when I have come to find your failure! We needed that planet's inhabitants and you failed me! Monkey, no, Hybrid, you will pay! I DO NOT accept failure as an excuse!" Frieza struck the boy across the poor boy's worn out face with his tail.

The boy fell to the ground as his nose bled and dark, purple and black, ugly bruise formed on his features. His whole side of his face throbbed in pain. But he knew there would be more to come. So he retained his previous position on bowing at the floor. Frieza smirked at him. He did indeed train the adolescent well to obey and take his beatings accordingly. This thought in mind, increased his sickening smile. "Well, I do however, am going to spare of your beating. For I do need to cut this meeting short. It has come to my knowledge that my scientists have completed the time machine." Frieza sneered.

The boy froze up. They finished the time machine faster than he anticipated. This was defiantly bad. Frieza eyed the boy before turning his back to him. "You have permission to stay in your quarters for the rest of the night." Frieza told him and then he turned to his right hand man, Zarbon.

"Zarbon, I leave you in charge of my empire til' I return. But mostly I leave you in charge of 'him'." he pointed at the boy. "Make sure no funny business nor screw ups with him." "I understand Emperor Frieza. I will not fail you." Zarbon nodded. Frieza turned slightly and eyed the boy evilly. "What the hell are you still doing here! Leave at once! Stay out of my sight unless either myself or Zarbon has set for you." he sneered hatefully.

"Forgive me Emperor Frieza." the boy replied. He stood on his 2 tired feet and headed out the door with 2 sneering tyrants laughing silently at his back. As soon as they sensed him head to his chambers, Zarbon questioned Lord Frieza. "I am sorry Lord Frieza, but I am not exactly sure I am seeing the logic of going back in time. What will this prove?" "Ah Zarbon, you always were simple minded weren't you? What I am doing is going into the past to tie up some loose ends and become emperor of the universe faster and see my immortality,. Don't you see the reasoning my chances. Whereas in the past I can fix them and finally gain my immortality. Now what I am saying Zarbon, that once I am gone, you will be the new emperor. I am giving you this lifetime to take my place. As soon as I leave, I will no longer be returning." Frieza explained and let the information sink in for his new successor.

Zarbon was shocked. He couldn't believe his ears at what his emperor was saying. He was the next of kin and would be receiving the entire universe for him to rule on a silver platter. "Lo-Lord Frieza, this is indeed an honor. I-I don't know what to say or think…" Zarbon said dumbfounded. "Save it Zarbon. I leave tonight. Just don't destroy what I have worked so hard to achieved. Now excuse me Emperor, I must prepare for my trip." Frieza smirked. He then turned his back and left a rather bewildered Zarbon alone in his new throne room.

-The Boy!-

The boy quickly returned to his room. He couldn't believe it. Frieza was way ahead of schedule. If he wanted to prevent the past from being brought to ruins, he was going to act fast. But lets start from the very beginning with this merely 16 year old boy. He is the future son of Prince Vegeta and of Dr. Briefs' intelligent Daughter, Bulma. He doesn't remember much of them since Frieza had taken them away from him in only 2 months of age. But he does remember bits and pieces of them.

He remembered his Mother's face and sweet singing voice. He remembers his Father's laugh and strong smirk. But what he does remember most about them was his Mother giving him his very own name. It may not have been much and sound strangely unusual for a boy, but it was his name and his Mother gave it to him. So for honoring her, he uses it with pride. His name is Prince Trunks Vegeta Briefs, the last of the Human/Saiyan race. The day Frieza came to power and conquered the Vegeta-sei empire, he started destroying races of species and planets. Since then, only the strongest survived. And because he was one of THE strongest around, Frieza had kept him as a sick, humiliating joke to show off to all races of things that had given up hope.

Trunks rushed to his hidden room under his bed that he had built in secret. Because of his Mother's genes, he inherited her intellect and his Father's brawn. Trunks went to one drawer at his desk in the room. For you see, it was his very own personal secret lab. He reached in and pulled out a giant pill like structure called a Capsule. His Mother invented these 'Capsules' and he carried the tradition. But inside this most important and rare Capsule was a precious thing indeed.

Frieza wasn't' the only one with a time machine. You have to remember, he was the one to make up the plans for it. But he wouldn't be leaving so soon yet. He would wait for the word that Frieza had gone on ahead. And then he would strike. He would set this universe free, go into the past, and destroy the Kold's before they could take another innocent child away from their parents ad into slaves ever again. But first things first, he would change out of his so called 'uniform' and into proper clothes. After all, he would be heading to a time where Frieza did not rule all.

-Frieza!-

He quickly cleaned up and was in his best armor. The time machine would carry up to 5 people besides Frieza himself. So he would be taking along his very best men, excluding Zarbon and Trunks. He wanted Zarbon to rule his stead and because he knew he could get the job done. He didn't want Trunks because on the off chance he might run into his parents and Kami know what chaotic mess might occur. Best to let him serve under Zarbon. Besides, Zarbon always love to torture the stupid Saiyan monkey Prince.

Zarbon and Frieza's council members watch as Frieza and 5 of the best damn warriors boarded the time machine. "I shall return soon. Until then, Zarbon keep order til' my return. He is the new Emperor until I get back." Frieza gave his order. "Yes Emperor. We anxiously await your return." Zarbon told him. Frieza nodded. "Good. Start the machine and send me back to my Father. Much needs to be explained to him I'm sure." Frieza smirked sadistically. "Yes Emperor." the head scientist called out. He started up the machine. The machine lifted up into the air as Frieza gazed down at his followers on last time and then vanished.

After a few moments, the crowd breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't think he would ever leave. However, the feeling quickly vanished as a huge explosion happened at the doorway. The room filled with debris and smoke as everyone could not see what caused it. But Zarbon was one of the first to notice the person responsible in the doorway. He wore dark cargo pants, yellow combat boots, black tank top, a blue jean jacket with the 'Capsule Corp.' logo on his right side of his jacket that he had on his baby blanket when he was stolen and a newly molded and sharpened sword draw in his right hand.

He had hateful blue piercing eyes aimed at Zarbon and laver hair covering his face. "Zarbon, you and everyone in this room will be dead if you do not surrender your newly acquired power and set Frieza's empire fee." Trunks lashed out. Zarbon and including the entire council busted out laughing after a moment of silence. "Don't make me laugh Hybrid. You will do no such thing. Get out of my site before I send you on the hardest suicide mission of your life." Zarbon chuckled amused. Trunks narrowed his eyes dangerously at Zarbon. "Last warning. Do as I say or suffer at the mercy of my sword."

Zarbon lost his amused expression and quickly turned dark. " I think you need to be reminded of your place in MY empire. I've been waiting to do this to you for a rather long time." Zarbon hissed. Trunks prepared his sword for any oncoming attacks from his so called 'Master' and he pointed it at him. "Your funeral. Attack me if you dare." "FOOL!" Zarbon lunged at him. But quickly fell as Trunks sliced him in half. Zarbon fell to the ground dead. Trunks quickly turned and spat at his remains. "You're the fool." then he turned to look at Freiza's council. "Anyone else wanna challenge me?"

Not a peep from anyone. Trunks smiled at this. ("Good.") "Spread the word that this universe belong to no one . It is free to all races. Everyone has a right to live and be happy. Do this not, and you will suffer Zarbon's fate. Go now and fulfill your new orders!" he barked. "H-hai." they all cried. All 12 busted out of the room. Trunks let out a chuckle before getting down to business. He quickly pulled out his Capsule and got in. Truth be told he didn't know where to go or start. All the knew was the time to go back in time to and where he could locate his Father. ("Hopefully Dad will understand.") he thought as he typed in his coordinates. With a great sigh and knowledge of yet another adventure, he must start on, he pressed the button to take him to his destination and soon to be destiny.
