Neo woke up in his new room of the lookout. It felt odd. He wasn't used to this yet. The last time he woke up in bed, he was at his old home, and his mother was still alive. He rubbed his eyes and got out of bed with a yawn.

When he went outside Piccolo was there, meditating. Piccolo opened his eyes when he sensed Neo. "Good morning Neo, did you sleep well?"

"I did. Thanks again for giving me a place to stay."

"Don't mention it. Mr. Popo has prepared your breakfast. I'm sure you can sense where he is."

"I can, and thank you." Neo turned around and went back inside to go to where Mr. Popo was.

One thought lingered in Piccolo's mind. He looks like a strange fusion of android seventeen and Gohan. Who is he?

Neo walked into a room with a dining table large enough to seat ten people. On side of it had delicious food that Neo had never been able to taste before. Mr. Popo stood near the door and greeted Neo with a smiled.

"Good morning Neo. I hope the food is to your liking."

"It is. Thank you for your generosity Mr. Popo." Neo started stuffing his face. He was finished within minutes.

Mr. Popo just grinned. He had seen this kind of eating before. "Shall I get some more?"

"No thanks. I'm full now."

"Really? All the other saiyans I know eat much more than that."

"Well, I've grown up in a world where I couldn't afford to eat that much in one sitting because I would starve during the next meal time."

"That makes sense. Did you like how the food tasted?"

"It was amazing. I've never eaten meat that was prepared like this. I've only eaten raw meat that was cooked a little."

"I see. It must have been tough…surviving in that world."

"It was, though it might not have been as tough as it was before I was born."

"What do you mean?"

Neo thought out how to explain this. He spoke after ten seconds of thought. "There were two androids, Seventeen and Eighteen. They killed all the Z-fighters except for a few. They brought the world to its knees. With Glorft came, he would leave the Earth to give it time to recover before coming back. Seventeen and Eighteen didn't do anything like that…not that Glorft was any better, but we had time to recuperate."

"So there were two evil androids in your world before Glorft came? Sounds similar to another young man who also used a time machine to come from another timeline."

"Oh…you must mean Trunks. He was there in my timeline, but Glorft killed him."

"It sounds like this Glorft is invincible."

"It seems like that, even for a super saiyan 3, but I know for a fact that I have the strength to beat him."

"You must mean your golden Oozaru."

Neo nodded yes. "The only problem is that I can't fight properly since I can't control the power. That's why I hope Vegeta will train me."

"I also hope so, because if Glorft exists in your timeline, he will probably also come in ours."

"Yes. I agree."

After eating Neo went outside to do some training. Piccolo decided to test his strength with a sparring match.

Piccolo took his fighting stance. "Are you ready Neo?"

Neo took his stance as well. "Ready."

"Good." Piccolo went on the offensive, launching punch after punch.

Neo was fighting well. He was able to block every blow. This went on for about ten minutes. Piccolo then jumped back and smirked.

"You're a good fighter. Now to get more serious." He took off his weighted clothing. "We'll start using energy blasts now okay."

"Sure." Neo went back on the defensive as Piccolo launched a barrage of small blasts. He then fired his own blasts at Piccolo.

Piccolo smirked and blocked all the attacks. He then came in close and uppercut Neo. "You might have to go super saiyan for this. I've seen how strong you are so I won't be holding back."

"Got it." Neo powered up into his super saiyan form. He made his power match Piccolo to avoid overdoing it. This time, he started the fight by coming in close and attacking with a barrage of punches and kicks.

Piccolo was able to block most, but got kicked higher into the air. This is getting good. Time to turn the heat up. "Special Beam Canon!"

Neo realized that he could not dodge the attack, so he created an energy shield, similar to the one Seventeen and Eighteen could create. The shield had no problem absorbing the attack. Neo then decided to fire his own attack; it was a Masenko.

Though Neo didn't call out the name, Piccolo recognized the attack as the one he had taught to Gohan. That attack is definitely Gohan's, and Neo looks like Gohan. What could this mean? Is there some connection?

Neo realized the mistake he had made and stopped. "Sorry. I guess I was getting a little carried away."

"Don't worry. It's fine. I think we can stop sparring for now. I sense Vegeta approaching." He's trying to hide something. He definitely has some connection to Gohan…but what. It wouldn't be right to force it out. I'm sure it will come out eventually.

Vegeta arrived on the lookout. His expression told Neo and Piccolo that he meant business. "Bulma is throwing a party. She wants both of you to come to it. She sent me here to deliver the message. The party is tomorrow." Vegeta then grumbled something about being a delivery boy. "Oh, and Neo. I've decided to evaluate your abilities. We'll have our first training session a week from now. I remember how to control the form, and I might be able to teach it to you."

"Thank you Vegeta."

"Whatever. This new threat is bigger than all of us, and we won't have Kakarot here to use a spirit bomb so we'll need a warrior that's stronger. You're the only one left with the potential to be that warrior. The other saiyans are dead of tailless." Vegeta took off.

Piccolo turned back to Neo. "I guess I'll be going to the party. Gohan will probably be there, and I could use a short break from being up here."

"We'll go two." Dende came out of the palace. Mr. Popo was next to him. "We could also use a break."

"I guess I'll go too. It'll be a great opportunity for me to meet people I didn't have a chance to meet in my world."

"Then it's decided. We'll all go." Piccolo went inside. "I'm going to rest a little."

Neo realized that he didn't have any clothes he could wear. "I don't have anything to wear to the party. I guess I'll have to go shopping."

"That will not be necessary," said Dende. "I can create clothes for you. Now what would you like to wear?"

I hope you like this chapter. The party is basicly the same one that was there at the end of the Buu saga, only without Buu or Goku. I've also decided to move the training into the background and focus more on how interacts with the other charecters.
