I think it's time I come clear about this.
I believe I've mentioned this before, but when the story first released, I had next to no plan in mind, I literally just made it because my 14-year old brain didn't want to refrain from keeping an idea that my present self now sees as completely asinine stuck within the confines of my memory, and would be lost to the fate of being forgotten with the deep, dark corners of my mind.
Truth be told, looking back now, I'm sort of grateful for this story. It helped me realize that there were better things I could do, plus I was able to learn from the writing of others and take into consideration of what I need to improve on, and that if there are some things that should be better off left alone.
This unfortunately, is one of those things.
To anyone who was a fan of this story, I hope you are able to understand as this was a decision that took a while to make and ultimately came out thinking this was the best thing I could've done. I don't think I could continue to write this story out despite us being near the end of it. I know this is short but making speeches like this has never been my forte, I'm a huge introvert and not very social so I'm not used to being able to form long, coherent thoughts whether it be speaking to a person or just writing it out in text for myself, or countless others to see including myself. But enough of me rambling... it's time I come forth with the decision I've made.
As of now, this fanfic is discontinued effective immediately, and will be deleted within the next week.
I sincerely apologize, again, if you were hoping for more out of this but honestly, with a franchise filled with near limitless potential such as the Dragon Ball universe coupled with a show that while I still like, have a difficult time describing it and my feelings towards it, there really isn't much that can be done that seems sensical.
If you enjoyed this, thank you, but the more I wrote this the more burnt out I felt. Luckily there were only a few chapters left, so I guess I'll just summarize my plans for this before I wanted to dig up the grave and leave it to die.
Gohan and his friends would arrive back in their universe, and Vegeta would explain the flow of time is much different across the various realities in the multiverse (I am not referring to the twelve universes within Dragon Ball, think of it as a Rick and Morty scenario with many other timelines and realities), and he, Goku and everyone else had been looking for Gohan for decades, and a substantial amount of time has passed.
Vegeta is one of the only Z-Fighters remaining as nearly everyone else has passed on from old age, much to the horror of Gohan, which causes him to go into mass hysteria, and Vegeta was only able to stop the situation from escalating by knocking him out. He explains to Jake and everyone else there these are affairs they're better off not dealing with, but Jake affirms that Gohan is their friend and can't leave him behind.
Vegeta then reminds them time is still passing by much faster in whatever dimension Never Land is in and quickly forces everyone back with a glare, and closes the portal before anyone could come back.
Vegeta would then explain to Gohan everything that happened since he disappeared: Majin Buu, Lord Beerus, Broly, Zamasu, the Tournament of Power, and any events that have transpired in Super, although slightly altered because of Gohan's absence. The Saiyan Prince had also taken the role of a Destroyer God, soon to replace Beerus and under his training, which explained his purple haired form and how he decimated Cell so easily.
After that my mind just became a blank slate.
Again, I deeply apologize for anyone that wanted more out of this. If you want to continue this or remake it on your own you're more than welcome to let me know.
With that said, it's nice to reflect on a bygone era of my writing days, knowing that this was a small step I had to take to keep pushing myself.
