"Hey Kiela can you give me a hand?" Trunks called from inside the spaceship.
I flew up to the doorway and poked my head inside the room. "Again? I helped you like, less than two minutes ago." I replied as I stepped inside the room.
Trunks sat on the couch, leaning forward, and was working on a small box, with a small radio attached to it, that sat on the table in front of him. He smiled slightly. "Yeah I know sorry. But there's something wrong with the radio, something's preventing us from contacting my mom."
I walked up behind the couch, next to where Trunks sat, leaned forward, pressing my stomach against the back of the couch a little bit, and examined the small box. "Hmmm... I'm no expert on technology, but that wire there looks like it's in the wrong place."
Trunks tilted his head to the side and leaned forward to examine the small green wire for a little bit before he hit the side of his head with the bottom of his hand. "Of course! Why didn't I see that before?" He looked back at me as I stood back up. "Thanks."
I smiled at him and ruffled his hair. "Just keep being a genius and you'll be talking to your mom in no time." He rolled his eyes and fixed his hair so it was poofy before he turned his attention back to the machine to fix the green wire, hiding a light smile. I vaulted over the back of the couch and sat next to him, leaning back against the back of the couch. But it wasn't long until Trunks fixed the wire.
"Okay, I think it's done." He said, closing the top of the small metal box where he had been working on it.
I looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "Think?" I joked.
He chuckled softly. "Okay, I know I fixed it."
I rolled my eyes and shook my head jokingly, waving my hand at him. "Sure, sure, let's just try it out."
He shrugged. "Okay then, but don't get mad when you see I'm right."
I punched him in his upper arm "gently". "Just turn it on." But I probably hit him a little too hard... again... He fell onto his other side, falling over the side of the couch. I looked at him with a surprised expression on my face. I scratched the back of my head in embarrassment. "Sorry! I forgot my own strength."
He sat back up and rubbed his upper arm where I had hit him. "Geez that hurt!" He looked at me. "You need to be more careful."
I shrugged, lifting my hands to shoulder-length. "Hey I said I was sorry didn't I?"
He sighed slowly. "Yeah, but still."
I crossed my arms over my stomach loosely and sank down in my seat. "I'll try..." I mumbled.
Trunks chuckled quietly before flipping a switch on the small box. "FOR GOODNESS SAKES WILL SOMEONE PICK UP THE STUPID PHONE!" Bulma's furious voice immediately filled the room once Trunks turned the radio on, it was so loud that we both practically jumped out of our seats and we had to cover our ears.
Trunks quickly scooped up the smaller radio that was attached to the small box, it would be called a walkie-talkie I guess, and held a button down on the side before speaking into it. "Mom calm down you don't have to yell!" Trunks said, trying to get Bulma to stop yelling.
There was a pause after Trunks let go of the button before Bulma's voice, a little staticy, filled the room again, anger still spiced her voice. "What do you mean 'don't have to yell'?! I've been trying to get through to you guys for hours!"
I grimaced at how loud her voice was, it wasn't as loud as earlier but it was still pretty loud. Maybe he shouldn't have called her... I thought.
"Listen mom, the radio wasn't working so I had to figure out what was wrong. Sorry we couldn't call you back earlier though." Trunks explained.
Bulma sighed. "Okay, if that's all that was wrong then I guess I shouldn't be as mad." Her voice was much quieter than earlier. "So what's going on over there? How's Namek?"
"You know we're over here?"
She laughed. "Of course I know you're there silly! I kind of figured you were there when everyone popped up out of nowhere."
Trunks' expression brightened immediately. "So everyone's back? Even Gohan?!" He asked excitedly.
"Yep, everyone's here. Goku, Gohan, Piccolo, Krillin, and your father's back too."
"Really? That's great!"
"Sure is! They're all wanting to hear how you guys are doing so I went ahead and called you two."
"Okay that's cool, we were planning to call you too, that's why we picked up when we did."
"So how's it going over there? Are you and Kiela staying out of trouble?"
Trunks and I looked at each other. "Well... Not exactly..."
There was a pause before she spoke up again. "What do you mean 'not exactly'? What's going on over there?"
"Do you think you can give the radio to Goku or someone so I can tell them? They could help us out... A lot."
"Just keep talking, you're on speaker so everyone can hear you."
Trunks smiled. "Alright." He looked at me. "But I think it would be better if Kiela told you guys the whole story." I looked at him and shook my head, I wasn't very good at storytelling.
"Kiela? Why?" "
Well, it has something to do with that guy she fought back in her time."
"Wait, you mean her brother Broly?" Trunks nodded, forgetting that Bulma couldn't see him. "Yeah, he's still alive in our time so we met him and her father Paragus out here in space."
"I see. So what's going on with them? Have you gotten into any fights with them?"
"Only once... well Kiela did anyways. I was too busy helping the Namekians get all the Dragon Balls together."
"So did Kiela kick their butt then?"
Trunks shook his head. "No, Paragus used me to get her to go with him and Broly. She did go with them but I brought her back to Namek with one of the wishes, but I'll let Kiela tell you more about that later. Right now we just need to find Broly and Paragus."
"And how's that going so far? Do you have any leads?"
"No, we haven't tried to locate them yet, we've been resting a bit and I've been trying to fix the radio."
"Okay well I'll look into it and send Goku and everyone else to planet once you find it... Unless I find it first."
Trunks laughed softly and nodded again. "Have fun with that. Kiela will use her Instant Transmission technique to locate them, if we find anything we'll call you. We'll talk to you soon." Trunks turned the radio off and put the walkie-talkie down on the table before looking at me. "Ready to start searching?"
I smiled and gave him a thumbs up. "I was born ready."
A/N: Next chapter they start searching for Broly and Paragus, and after that chapter, or the chapter after that, will be when some action starts... and Paragus does something unexpected in a few chapters. I'm not saying what it is yet though! Also, I'm probably gonna be updating a little later now that I have school again, I'll try to update the next chapter as soon as I can I promise.
