In a dark room , nine stone monoliths are discussing their plans

The one that read " 03" lit up

Things are not going according to plan."03"

The destruction of the time machine should have broken the sixth child."09"

I did as you told me . A woman says from the dark.

Yet , he was able to cripple Arael's attack on the second , and he killed it without problem."04"

Why didn't you informed us of the power of this "Super Saiyan" transformation."01"

All is not lost , Gendo now has no choice but to cause Third Impact."06"

I made a suit that matches his father to help , but it only encouraged him even more. The woman shuttered in front of 01

Your efforts have done nothing but make things worse!"01"

But…..

That is why we have sent the fifth child to accomplish the last scenario."02"

Why do you send him now , instead of sending him earlier ? The woman steps in frontof the light coming from the monoliths.

Because , Dr . Akagi , we have recently discovered that the 'Cell" creature has already arrived , and has finished it's larval stage."05"

It's already here? For how long? Ritsuko jumped in terror .

It landed here in the confusion of the attack of Arael."08"

It was hiding in the forests the whole time , feeding on animals and hikers."02"

So what did you mean that it had finished it's larval stage ? She asked.

We think that it needed to feed to change into the Cell you saw ."04"

And yesterday it finished it's metamorphosis like process , and started to attack the city at night."09"

You knew all this time and you didn't do anything to stop it!

We do not see it as a high threat ."01"

For now , all it's done is feed on civilians walking at night to their homes ."07"

It has not attacked any largely populated areas."06"

It doesn't seem more dangerous than a street thug ."07"

You saw how Trunks started to destroy the city in his frenzy!

Yes , what is your point Dr. Akagi ?"01"

He was only firing energy beams for a minute , and was able to break down 10 major buildings!

Imagine what a creature with no sense of mercy , that even Trunks is afraid of , to decide to attack the city! We wouldn't last half an hour!

You do not know how powerful this creature really is ?"03"

You saw what it did to the other Trunks!

For all we know , Cell just sneaked up behind him and killed him ."05"

It could have forced Trunks into lying about destroying his world."08"

It wasn't lying! That thing was able to take out all life once before! And now it wants to do it again here!

I saw the eyes of the other…..he wasn't lying.

You are assuming this out of false believes ."01"

DAMN IT! Your not going to cause Third Impact! Your going to cause the end of the world!

That is enough Dr!"01"

For disobeying our orders , and disrespecting your superiors , you are to be arrested for a penalty of 10 years."01"

YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO ME! Your going to let Cell destroy the world!

( Two guards come in and take her away once again ,but this time she wasn't coming back)

What if what she says is true ?"04"

We will send an attack force to find and kill Cell."01"

Yes , that should end everyone's worries."09"

All we have to do now is wait for Tabris to proceed with the plans."07"

We might have failed in damaging the second and first , but we can still use the third ."06"

All is going well……"01"

The next day in NERV Infirmary

Trunks was sleeping in his bed having yet another dream .

Hello ? his voice echoed across the darkness.

Trunks you need to go back.

Back to where , my world ?

No , you must go to where fate planned for you to go.

I don't understand ? And who are you really ?

You will understand all when the time of truth is at hand.

So where must I go ?

To where you meant to go.

You mean……go into Goku's timeline ?

Yes , this is one but of many secrets you will discover soon.

The first step of your journey is about to begin.

What do I have to do ?

You have to wake up.

Trunks opens his eyes slowly , he looks to his left when he hears a voice call him.

Trunks ? he sees that it was Shinji who called him , and behind him where Asuka, Misato, and Rei.

Are you all right Trunks ? You were talking in your sleep. Misato asks hugging him .

They said that you could leave now , but seeing your little display , you might go to a nut house.

Thanks for the positive welcoming Asuka. (sarcasm)

No problem Super Kid. She pats his back

We are glad you are awake. Rei whispers from behind Asuka.

I'm tired of being in this stupid hospital , I want to practice with my sword a little.

Yeah , about your sword…….Misato scratches her head .

Asuka and Shinji dropped it down the balcony and it sort of uumm……broke.

WHAT!

Were really sorry Trunks. Shinji stands back a little saying this.

What were you doing with my sword in the balcony?

Well I heard someone yelling karate yells outside and went to check what was happening . Asuka says looking at Shinji intently .

Trunks saw that Shinji had a bandage on his left arm.

Shinji here was playing with your sword stabbing one of your pillows. Misato couldn't help but drop on the floor laughing.

You should have seen him , he was jumping up and down yelling "Burning attack" imitating your voice even.

Shinji was looking out the window red from embarrassment.

I was bored……

Not until you cut your arm and started screaming like a little girl. Asuka was still laughing on the floor with Misato.

Well it did hurt a lot……

He accidentally dropped your sword down the balcony when he cut himself.

YOU IDIOT! Do you know the trouble I went to find that sword!

I'm sorry…..

What's the damage ?

It snapped in two , we threw it away since you don't need a broken sword. Misato stood up regaining her breath.

Trunks looked like he was ready to shoot them all .

It's…….okay . he gritted from his teeth

Rei , would you give me my food over there. He pointed at a food tray with large veins in his arm.

Here you go . she said nervously looking at how mad he looked.

Are you hungry . Rei asked as Trunks grabbed the food tray tightly.

I'm really sorry Trunks , I didn't mean to brake your sword……please don't kill me. He whispered the last part.

It's………okay…….Shinji……..DAMN IT! He threw the food tray over the window sending it fly into the far horizon.

Shinji, Asuka, Misato , and even Rei were crouching in a corner hoping that he didn't decide to kill them all.

Now you've done it Baka , he's going to kill us all. She whispered to him

Trunks-kun would never do that….. Rei whispered back and saw Trunks turn back looking at Shinji with fire in his eyes.

I'M GOING TO KILL YOU SHINJI!

AAAAAAAAA! Shinji ran for the door but was interrupted by Misato.

TRUNKS WHAT'S THAT!

I'm not falling for that trick. He almost roared.

Trunks saw the look of fear in Rei's eyes .

Okay…..( Breathes in and out)…….I'm over it……I'm in a happy place.

Everyone is still scared half to death. " What ? I said I'm okay now"

He notices that their eyes are not looking at him , but out the window. "Guys ?"

Trunks looks behind him , and out the window in the sky was…..

CELL!

Cell floated far away from them , all that could be seen was his far off figure , the others could not see him closely , but they knew that his gaze was on them.

And in the minds of all five of them they heard his terrible voice.

( Give me the girl) he pointed at one of them and disappears.

That……that thing…….was Cell! Asuka tried to say from her shivers.

I could feel him stare into my soul. Misato was crying from fear.

Why didn't he kill us ? Shinji asked confused.

He's messing with us . Trunks was standing still looking out the window.

He was pointing at……me . Rei finally said crying in Misato's shoulder.

He must want Rei because she is similar to the androids……..I felt something…..

What did you sense Trunks ?

I sensed millions of screaming souls inside him , screaming to be set free.

Those where the souls of the people he absorbed in my world .

And he wants me to join them ! Rei was having a panic attack crouching on the floor crying.

Rei passed out on the floor.

REI! Shinji ran to her and picked her up.

Misato call the nurses! He screamed.

Misato had thought ahead and ran out the moment she passed out . Asuka was looking at Trunks mumble something to himself.

Not again…….

Trunks ? she went to face him but he didn't answer , Shinji was watching.

I wont fail again……

Misato ran in with a group of doctors to take Rei to another room.

Shinji looked at Trunks one last time and left.

Asuka was alone with Trunks trying to wake him from his thought.

She didn't say a word listening to what he said.

I won't fail you mother……I'll save you from your fate………I'll make you proud……..

( Is he doing all of this to save his mother ? To make her proud ?...mamma ) She thought.

Asuka , I know of your history with your mother……the commander showed me the profiles of all of the pilots in repayment of me telling him everything I know.

Trunks……I……

You don't have to explain anything to me Asuka , I can sense the changes in a persons Ki energy , that includes feelings of happiness , hate , pain , sadness……love , even if they don't accept them……

He flew of the window , leaving Asuka confused and sad. ( He can sense my feelings…….he knows…..)

In Rei's medical room.

She's going to be up and running by tomorrow , so you have nothing to worry about , she just suffered an intense state of fear .

Oh thank god , I thought that she had suffered a heart attack or something. Misato relaxed and wiped the sweat of her head.

Major , when you ran in here you looked like if you had seen a ghost . What happened ?

I think it's classified what we saw , but I'll tell you this , don't go out at night today , if you stay late , sleep here.

But why Major……

That's an order for all of you!

Yes Major.

And everyone of you will call everyone dear to you and tell them to NOT go out at night until further notice. If you can tell it to the Media.

What is that we can't go out at night ?

Don't question my orders and just do it !

Shinji was next to Rei who had a breathing mask on.

Come on Shinji , there's nothing you can do now. Misato pulls Shinji away from Rei.

Will she be all right Misato ?

Yes , you can see her tomorrow when she wakes up.

When they walk out the door , Shinji bumps into someone……
