History of Trunks Part 1
Misato, Shinji, Asuka, and Trunks, packed in Misato's car heading over to Rei's apartment. Trunks, still trying to wake up from that nap yawns.
"So what is for dinner?" Trunks asked not really remembering who was around him.
"Ramen!" Asuka spits out.
Misato looking at Asuka, "Ramen?"
"Yea Misato, we know how poor you are so we decided on Ramen, plus since wondergirl is a vegetarian she can join us." Asuka replied
Misato just smiled as they pulled up to Rei's apartment.
Of course Rei being so on time, she was waiting for the car outside of her apartment building. Asuka got out of the car and squeezed in the back of the Misato sports car so Rei can sit in the front, not a common move for Asuka, but deep down Asuka did it for another purpose. Trunks felt a little uneasy around being crowded in the back, but he had to live with it. Once Rei walked up the car she notice Trunks sitting in the back. One couldn't tell what she was thinking, but she was thinking something is different with this boy.
Trunks at the same time was getting the same feeling that Rei is different, he try to feel her out, something was familiar with her ki, but couldn't quiet pin point it. Rei sat in the front seat.
"Hi Rei, thanks for joining us." Misato said.
"Thank you for treating me to this meal, Major." Rei replied.
Misato started the car and they were off to the Ramen noodle stand that Asuka pointed out. Shinji noticed that Misato didn't introduce Trunks to Rei.
"Rei, meet Trunks Briefs, Trunks meet Rei Ayanami." Shinji said with a smile.
Trunks looked at her; she looked back at him like she was trying to read his mind.
"Hello, Rei." Trunks finally said.
"Nice to meet you Mr. Briefs." Rei replied back.
"No, please call me Trunks." Trunks said.
"Ok Trunks." She said.
Asuka didn't like the scene that she was witnessing; wondergirl spoke more than two words to Trunks. This isn't normal, not even for wondergirl standards. Asuka decided to make some conversation.
"So Trunks, how was your first day in Toyko-3?" Trunks replied.
"It was good; except for the angel attack I enjoyed myself." He smiled at her when finished.
Asuka just blushed and look out the window.
(A/N: I know a little OOC, but let's face it, cute girl, and its Trunks.)
Misato noticed it. 'Well he is a good looking guy, what am I saying I'm twice his age'.
They finally got to the Ramen stand, and all popped a squat on the stools. They placed there orders.
'These are really nice people why would they be attacked by these angels' Trunks thought to himself.
Trunks was snapped back to reality with the following conversation.
"Misato, I finally figure why I pilot EVA, today when my father said good job Shinji, is when I knew I pilot it for his respect." Shinji said with a smile.
"Let me get this right, you pilot EVA, just for that, you are really pathetic." Asuka replied.
She turns her attention to Trunks and asked "So what are you thinking about?"
Trunks looked at the group and replied, "I was just wondering why the angels attack good people like you guys?"
With that said Misato remembered that Trunks isn't from here and remember the conversation before the angel attack.
'Oh crap, I forgot about him, he isn't from here.' Misato thought.
Rei was kinda stunned at the statement/question though she didn't show it. Asuka blinked hard and replied
"Trunks are you stupid everybody knows that information hell I think babies are born knowing it, where have you been the past year!" Asuka said.
Trunks just sat back and ate his meal. Misato felt bad, but couldn't say anything in front of Rei; if Rei knew that Trunks was the boy operating the "UFO" she would report to the commander.
They all finished up and walked back to the car and drove off. Misato dropped off Rei back the apartment and the rest of them went back to there own home. Once back at the apartment, the three roommates change into the PJ's ready for bed, Trunks on the other hand wasn't sure what to do next. He was sitting on the couch when Asuka was the first one out of her bedroom. She walked over and sat on the floor. The rest of the gang followed.
"So Trunks, where do you live in Toyko-3?" Asuka asked.
Trunks not knowing what to answer, Misato came right out and said it.
"Asuka, he is staying with us for the time being." Misato said.
"Why?" Asuka asked.
Shinji kinda sitting there with a look like 'Are you stupid.'
"Well to put it blunt Asuka, he is the one that was in the UFO." Misato said in one of her commanding officer tones.
Asuka for the second time today blinked hard. She jumped up and yelled "ALIEN!" Looking at Shinji and Misato not scared of Trunks, she sat down and took a deep breath.
"Ok, Ok what did I miss, or are you under a trance by his alien mind?" Asuka said with a hint of sarcasm.
Misato just smile and explain to her what Trunks said before the angel attack, which at the end of the story Misato looked at Trunks.
"Would you care to finish your tale from before?" Misato said
Trunks looked at the new group of friends and smiled.
"Sure, it would be my pleasure." Trunks said
With that Trunks began his tale.
"My name is Trunks, and I'm from the future of another world or dimension whatever you want to call it. You see my friends where I come from everything on the earth is destroyed, cities that once stood proudly are just piles of rock, people running for there lives from two androids that are hell bent of destroying everything and everyone they come in contact with. With that my mother created a time machine so I can return to the past to warn my then dead father and friends of the up coming duo of terror." Trunks said
He started to clench his hands into fist, remembering the horror of his world. The other noticing that fact he is getting upset.
"Trunks if you want to stop it, is okay, you don't have to tell this." Misato said.
Trunks looked up.
"It is ok, it is just that I remember so much horror then see what can possible happen to this world, I will continue." Trunks said.
With that Trunks began again.
"I did just that, I warned them three years before it happen, two years before I was born. I'm the only one in my time that is fighting the androids. After informing them I went back to my time, to see if anything changed. Nothing changed. That is when I decided to go back for a second time to see if I could help, but for some reason the past wasn't change because the androids they were fighting weren't the same that I fought, that is until the creator of the androids Dr. Gero activated them in his secret lab. At that point we tried to hold them off until Goku was better, since the androids sole purpose was to kill Goku." Trunks said
Trunks was interrupted by Asuka.
"Goku, is that your dad?" Asuka asked.
"No he wasn't but he was the strongest fighter that destroyed Dr. Gero's old Red Ribbon Army. Dr. Gero wanted revenge." Trunks replied.
"Sounds horrible." Shinji said with sadness in his voice.
Trunks continued.
"Well that wasn't the worst of it. While hiding Goku around, my mother in that time made a weird discovery of an identical time machine which landed two years before I made my first appearance." Trunks said
"Why was there a second time machine?" Misato asked.
Trunks continued.
"Well later we found out that Dr. Gero made an android by fusing the cells of the strongest fighters in the world to create and being known as "Cell" Cell made his appearance known by sucking the life out of people. His true goal was to be complete by absorbing the two androids that we were fighting. We tried to stop him but he succeeded. At that point he made up a tournament called the "Cell Games" which I was apart of. We trained long and hard to defeat Cell. Which Gohan did at the end, but we lost Goku in the process. After that I decided to go back to my time and destroy the androids and Cell. But of course I got sidetracked here." Trunks finished.
'I know I left the info about being half-saiyan and all, but right now I think they need to digest this information.' Trunks said to himself.
The group was in shock what they heard.
"Wow! that is amazing story Trunks I hope you get to your time quickly." Shinji said.
The two girls sitting across from him when still thinking of what he just said. Asuka didn't know what to think. Misato too.
"I wish I could get home, but I guess I have to find my time machine first though." Trunks said.
"Like I said, I don't know where NERV is keeping the time machine." Misato said.
Just then the door bell rang.
'Oh shit, I forgot, about the party plans' Misato thought to herself.
She invited everyone to a party since the plan to destroy the angel was a great success.
"Misato what is the matter?" Shinji asked.
"Hum, I forgot that I invitied a few people over for a get together." Misato said while going for the door.
She open the door and Maya, Hyuga, and Shigeru where the first to arrive. They walk in the door into the apartment, Trunks stood up feeling nervous because he didn't want to be explaining his story to everyone because the fact that he is still being looked for by authorities. Asuka and Shinji looked at Trunks, knowing that the people coming over will ask questions.
"Trunks relax they are friends there not here for you." Asuka said with a smile.
"Baka, get some refreshment for our guests." Asuka snarled at Shinji.
Shinji being the submissive one got up and did just that. At that time the group of NERV techs walked in.
Maya, Hyuga, and Shigeru saw Trunks and wonder who he was. They sat in the living room saying hello to the kids. Misato answer the door again and Ritsuko, along with Kaji walked in the door. Misato not really happy to see Kaji, but Kaji said
"We got off work at the same time and decided to come together." He finished with a smile.
The trio walked into the living room where the rest of the guests were over. Ritsuko notice Trunks.
'Humm, who is he' she thought to herself.
Asuka notice everyone staring at Trunks spoke up and said.
"Everyone meets Trunks Briefs, he just moved from Gingertown, USA. Shinji and I met him at school before the angel attack. He has been staying with us since his house was destroyed by the attack."
Everyone said "Hello" and introduced themselves to Trunks. Trunks said "Hello" back.
Once everyone got there the party was in full swing. There was food, drinks, and some karaoke. Everyone was enjoying themselves, even Shinji. Shinji saw Trunks out on the balcony drinking a soda and staring out upon the city, Shinji wonder what Trunks was thinking about. Shinji got up and walked out onto the balcony. He stood next to Trunks.
"What's up Trunks?" Shinji asked.
'I normally don't get into other people's problems, but Trunks is unique.' Shinji said to himself.
Trunks snapped out of his trance and looked at Shinji.
"Oh nothing just wondering how mother was doing, I haven't seen her in a long time, I guess I'm just homesick." Trunks said.
"I stayed a little too long where I was, but it was worth it." Trunks finished.
"Oh, I'm sorry to pry." Shinji said.
"No, it is ok, it's just that those two androids have to be dealt with and it isn't helping me that I'm getting sidetracked." Trunks said.
"I'm sure it will work out, Misato said she will look into it, and I trust her word." Shinji smiled.
Trunks smiled back.
"I'm sure she will, but in the meantime I still wondering why these angels attack the earth." Trunks said with a serious tone.
"I don't know, I keep wondering that myself lately." Shinji said with a sadden face.
"I'm sure there is a reason, and since Misato is helping me, I will help you guys too." Trunks said with a smile.
Shinji felt good about that.
"Would you like to join the others inside?" Shinji said.
"Sure." Trunks replied.
And with that the two went to join the party.
