I am overall very happy with where this story is going. That however is changing a little with this chapter. I am unsure if you guys will like it. I have sort of written myself into a corner. I brought Trunks back to give a warning. Then I realized that I had to come up with a way for him to come back and give a warning without creating another alternate time line where life sucks for somebody. For christ saks i just fixed one future, I don't want to have to fix another one (hope you guys are getting the humor here.) Anyway, please let me know what you think about this chapter, if you don't like it, I will most likely go back and try to find a way to make it more believable.

Trunks' Warning

During the course of the story Goku and Gohan brought everyone as well as Trunks ship to Capsule Corp. After he finished, Trunks was launched into question and answer period.

"So why did the Namekians call Porunga and wish Piccolo, Mr. Popo, Kami, and Goku back?" Bulma asked.

"They felt that they still owed Goku for his defeat of Frieza, so when they found out that I had finally killed Cell, they brought together the Dragon Balls and summoned Porunga," Trunks began. "Wishing back Piccolo or Kami would in turn bring the other. Mr. Popo would be needed to help Kami, and Goku could not be brought back with the Earth Dragon Balls because he had already been wished back by them. Once Kami returned, the Earth Dragon balls returned and allowed us to wish for the populace of Earth to return," Trunks finished.

"Wow it sure is nice to hear that we all make it back in the future," Goku said with a smile. "Just goes to show you, where there is a will there is a way."

"Ugh, you are never without your optimism Kakarott. It's sickening sometimes." Vegeta got up from where he was sitting and walked over to his future daughter in law. "So this is who you chose as your mate? Pathetic." At thisTrunks was immediately in between his wife and father.

"Back off dad," Trunks emphasized the last word.

"Hmph, just as stubborn as your mother," Vegeta said as returned to the couch.

"So, I marry Videl even in an alternate future. Must be fate huh," Gohan looked at her as he finished the last part of his sentence.

"Yeah, and we have twins, but I'll be happy with just the one for now," Videl whispered that last part in Gohan's ear. Gohan let loose a small smile. He figured after they got done here, that they should let Goku and ChiChi know. After all, Hercule already knew.

Piccolo who had remained silent since Trunks had finished his story finally decided to speak up.

"So, why exactly are you here? If I recall correctly, your last visit wasn't exactly a simple friendly one," Piccolo said grimly, arms folded, eyes narrowing slits.

"Hmph, am I that easy to read?" Trunks asked with his father's smirk. Piccolo let a small smile escape his lips. "Well, as Piccolo guessed, I did not come here simply to visit, as nice as it is to see you guys. Again, regrettably, I come with warning. In less than five years time, an evil being of power that vastly surpasses that of Cell, will come and attack Earth. He has one goal in mind. The death of-," Trunks was cut off.

"Oh let me guess," Vegeta started. "He wants to kill Kakarott for some moronic reason."

"No," Trunks said simply. "For once Goku is not the reason for this beings arrival. His reason is not simply to conquer, he has no desire to destroy or enslave Earth. He wants revenge on the one who killed his brother," Trunks finished and looked directly at Gohan. Everyone else slowly followed his gaze.

"Wha, me, who's brother did I kill?" Gohan asked, the surprise evident in his voice.

"Teralos, his name is Teralos," Trunks said almost sounding as though he were scared. Continuing to look at Gohan, Trunks said, "His brother was Bojack." A collective gasp went through the room, but only by those that fought that evil blue menace. Videl and Bulma didn't really understand at the time. Bulma had been by her future son's hospital bed after the fight, but she had seen none of what that monster was capable of. "I know that you were able to defeat him easily after you released your anger that day, it would even have appeared that he may have been weaker than Cell. But make no mistake, Bojack was nothing compared to his brother. This guy could probably defeat Broly without breaking a sweat." Trunks finished and all mouths dropped instantaneously.

"Wait, how in the hell do you know all this?" Vegeta asked rudely to his future whelp.



"Oh, right. Well remember how I told you that Gohan had visions of the future?" Trunks received nods after asking this question. "Well Gohan started to have Visions again two years after he had returned from the dead. The thing was, we couldn't figure out what was going on. He had visions that he was fighting some pink monster, and then died killing it as well. Then he had visions of returning to life, and meeting everyone on the lookout. He told me he saw Eighteen with Krillin, and that's when I figured it out. He was seeing this Gohan's future, from twenty years in the past. He continued to get visions sporadically over the next four years, which ended in him seeing this Gohan dying at the hands of Teralos, as well as my own father, and Goku. His last few visions before seeing this Gohan die revealed that Teralos was the brother of Bojack, and was seeking revenge on Gohan." Trunks finished and looked into the awestruck faces of his past friends and family. The silence was broken when a baby could be heard crying.

"Oh, I'll get it, she's probably just hungry," Bulma said getting up, she wasn't exactly all there at this point. Trunks looked somewhat surprised.

"You guys had another kid?" Trunks asked.

"Yes." Vegeta answered. "A little girl." Bulma came back into the room holding Bulla while feeding her. She resumed her place on the couch.

"So, the simple thing is we need to train and train hard," the Namekian spoke up.

"Hmph, yes. You guys must do everything in your power to keep this timeline safe. This guy may be powerful, but he is not immortal. I just hope that I have given you enough time to train."

"We had a year to train to beat Cell, one would think that four should be more than enough for this guy," Goku said optimistically.

"I would have come back sooner, but with Gohan gone, it seemed better to wait. I saw how strong he has become, but you all have a long way to go before Teralos gets here." Trunks stood up and gestured to his wife to do the same.

"We must be going, Itara and Mayenko

(A/N: Pronunciation: EE-TEAR (ripping paper not eye water)-UH, MY-YENKO) get a little roudy sometimes when we are gone for too long," Trunks said smiling at his wife.

"Yeah Vegeta's tried to kill them twice," she said with a grin.

"Wait, one more question," Piccolo requested of them. "We are now going to have another alternate timeline aren't we?"

"No, it hasn't happened yet. There is no timeline to deviate from. The future was foretold, not set in stone," Trunks said simply. Again he began for the door.

"Hey Trunks," Trunks looked back at his past mom. "You take care of yourself."

"Thanks mom," Trunks bent down and kissed his mom on the cheek. Then he and Eighteen left.

"Well, no time like the present to get started huh Kakarott."

"You go ahead Vegeta, I'm going to go tell ChiChi whats up. Gohan and I will meet you here tomorrow," Goku said as he stood up. Vegeta mumbled something that sounded like idiot, but Goku shrugged it off.

"Come on son, you never did tell your mother and me what that surprise was," Goku said smiling in his sons direction.

"Oh, Right," Gohan said as he glanced sideways at Videl. It had been a long day by this point. It was almost five in the afternoon.

"Well, shall we?" Gohan asked his future bride. Videl nodded. Gohan and Goku put their fingers to their head and vanished.

ChiChi took the news about the newest threat to Earth pretty well. She hated it when Goku had to train, he always seemed to have no time for her then. Gohan noted this mentally and swore he would spend time with Videl every day.

"There is some good news though mom," Gohan said getting his mother to brighten up a bit.

"Yeah, out with it son," Goku was anxiously awaiting the surprise Gohan had mentioned what seemed like days ago.

"Do you want to tell them?" Gohan asked Videl with a grin.

"I'm pregnant," Videl said with an enormous grin.

"I'm going to be a grandma," ChiChi yelled at the top of her lungs.

"I'm going to be a grandpa," Goku said after the ringing in his ears quit. Gohan and Videl just nodded and smiled.

"Well when did you find out?" ChiChi asked rushing over to Videl.

"This morning, Gohan figured it out. Said he could sense it was growing inside me," Videl said rubbing her tummy for the first time since that morning. Goku nodded signaling his son to follow him. He exited the house and walked a little ways outside.

"Wow, you're going to be a father, I'm so proud of you Gohan. It seems like only yesterday you were that scared little boy facing Cell," a tear falling from Goku's eye as he said this. He turned to face his son and gave him a hug worthy of a Saiyan.

"I love you Gohan.

"I love you dad.

After a moment, the father and son broke apart, both wearing big grins. Slowly both got more serious realizing what the future held, devastation, destruction, and worst of all uncertainty.

"So, what do you think? Can we handle this guy?" Gohan asked his father.

"I don't know, but as long as I breathe I will fight," Goku answered back.

"And I'll be right there next to you," Gohan said, giving the older Saiyan a small smile. "We both have families to protect now, and I'll be damned if I let anything happen to Videl or my child," Gohan said, the seriousness obvious in his face and voice. After a minute Gohan looked at his father again, "Hey, I need to go see Piccolo, I get the feeling he wants to talk to me, want to tag along?" Gohan asked.

"Yeah sure. Let's go." Both father and son disappeared.

Piccolo sat meditating in the middle of the Lookout when the two Saiyans appeared right in front of him. Piccolo opened his eyes. "About time you got here. I've been waiting to hear about your miraculous return for a few days now," Piccolo said with a small smile.

"Yeah Gohan, I've been curious about that myself actually," Goku said, his expression curious.

"Oh, well, it was Guru. I almost destroyed my body fighting Buu, and because I was willing to die without the possibility of returning, the dragon balls would not be able to revive me. He pulled me into the world between worlds he called it. It was where-," Gohan got cut off.

"Namekian Elders go after death, I know, or Nail knows anyway. Guru told you 'everything happens for a reason' didn't he?" Piccolo asked referring to what Gohan had told him when he first returned.

"Yeah, just before he sent me back," Gohan answered the green warrior.

"How did you appear to save Videl that night in the jewelry store? That world cannot be exited easily," Piccolo looking serious.

"Yeah, Guru was surprised, he didn't even believe it possible. But I separated my mind and body, put my mind in a tangible form, and went to her. I don't know how, but I knew she was in trouble," Gohan said shrugging his shoulders.



"It's your Saiyan bond to Videl that gave you that feeling," Piccolo began. "Saiyans make bonds to their mates, yours must be extremely strong to have felt her from that world."

"I love her more than anything. I would do anything to keep her safe," Gohan said a smile crossing his face.

"I know how you feel son," Goku said putting an arm around his oldest. A moment of silence passed before Piccolo spoke.

"Well, I suppose congratulations are in order," Piccolo said sticking out his hand. Gohan looked surprised, but took the Namekians hand none the less.

"How did you know?" Gohan asked.

"I heard her comment about 'just the one' when we were back at Capsule Corp." Piccolo said smiling.

"And I thought those ears were just for looks," Goku said then started to laugh. Gohan and Piccolo joined in. The laughing died down after a minute and Piccolo stared hard at the two Saiyan warriors before him.

"So what do you guys think, think we can protect our home yet again," both Saiyans stood quiet for a moment.

"We'll beat him, I beat his brother, and when he comes here, he will end up with the same fate," Gohan spoke confidently. He had something far more important to fight for now. The protection of his most dearest, and soon, his own child.

"Hmph, you're right Gohan, we haven't failed before, and we won't start now," Goku said just as confidently.

"Well, what do you say Piccolo, should we train together just like old times?" Gohan asked smiling at his old mentor.

"Yeah, just like old times, sounds like a plan kid," Piccolo said matching Gohan's smile.

"All right," Gohan said still smiling. "Well, I'm going to head back. If we start training tomorrow, I want to spend tonight with Videl," Gohan said bidding the Namekian good bye.

"Yeah, I should spend tonight with ChiChi as well." Father and son again put their fingers to their foreheads and disappeared.

ChiChi and Videl had been visiting about Saiyan pregnancy's for the last half hour or so. The only thing Videl was uncomfortable with was that while pregnant, her energy would decrease substantially. It was the job of the father to protect the woman in Saiyan traditions. She did feel a little better when she realized that Gohan would never let anything happen to her. That and ChiChi mentioned the feeling of holding a new born baby made Videl forget about all the negative effects of pregnancy.

"Well should we go see what the boys are doing," ChiChi asked standing up. Videl nodded and followed. They exited the house in time to see the duo reappear out of thin air.

"Where were you off to," Videl said walking over to embrace Gohan.

"Just went to see Piccolo. You ready to head home?" Gohan asked kissing the top of her head.

"Yeah, it's been-."

"A long day." Gohan had brought them back to their house with his dads technique. "Hey I didn't get to say good bye to ChiChi," Videl said faking an angry look.

"Mom's going to be more interested in dad at the moment. Just like I am with you," Gohan said with a mischievous grin. Gohan bent down and gently kissed Videl's forehead. "How did I ever find the perfect woman," Gohan whispered in her ear.

Videl closed her eyes and jumped into his arms, to which Gohan proceeded into the bedroom. As Videl kicked the door closed, she initiated the nights first passionate kiss.

Well again, please tell me what you think about how I have initiated the warning. Is it believable, or have I caused mass upset with my bad plot holes, loop holes and holes holes. anyway review and let me know what you think.
