Hey guys, really sorry for the long wait, I had a lot to do.
I finished up the Arc of my other story One's Own Path so I will give this story my undivided attention.
Hope you guys enjoy the chapter.
Dangerous Minds Think Alike
On some islands far from any life Trunks was standing with his arms at his side. He was wearing his blue jacket with white and yellow saiyan armor underneath.
In front of him was his young son, Shorz with half lavender like his father and half blonde hair like his mother in a fighting stance.
The young Saiyan human hybrid charged forward.
Trunks watched his son closely, once he was within range Trunks backhanded only for his arm to phase threw him.
Good he was using the afterimage technique.
Shorz appeared standing behind his father and tried to kick behind him.
But his father turned and grabbed Shorz's leg much to his surprise.
"Attacking behind my knee, not bad, but predictable." He said before swinging the young boy.
The young boy yelled as he was pushed back until he caught himself midair.
Shorz then pulled back his arm, showing electric pink energy.
"Power Blitz!" He yelled his mother's move towards Trunks.
The half Saiyan was disappointed that he was doing something straight forward against someone much stronger than him, he pulled his arm back ready to deflect it.
But Shorz squeezed his fist.
The Power Blitz then detonated just before Trunks moved his arm.
This didn't cause Trunks much damage but it made him close his eyes.
Then Shorz flew towards Trunks with a leg out attempting to kick his face.
Trunks with his eyes closed caught Shorz's leg just before it could land.
"Huh? No fair!" Shorz yelled.
His father then pulled him and grabbed the boy's arm back and placed him on the ground with one knee on his son's back.
Shorz whined while he was on the ground with his father keeping him on the ground with the arm lock whining that he couldn't move.
"That was better than last time." Trunks said as he got off his son's back and kneeled with a handout.
This reminded him of when Gohan offered him a hand up after letting him get out of a whirlpool.
Shorz took his father's hand and stood up. "I thought I'd be able to hit you this time."
"You almost did Shorz, but you need to learn to improvise." He said to him. "You hesitated when I had caught your kick, you had options in that moment to escape, but you were certain that you'd be able to land it. Never expect your first plan to work."
That was a lesson he and his friends had to learn countless times.
Shorz nodded sadly, knowing his father was right. He had a genius level intellect that might rival his grandmother one day, so when any plans he made in fighting didn't work it made him frustrated and stop attacking.
Still that plan should have worked.
"Your early."
The father and son turned.
It was Lapis wearing a long sleeve white blazer with a black undershirt and the orange handkerchief around his neck along with black pants and white shoes.
Beside him was his young son Joyaku, a boy with light skin like his father's, his hair was in the same stile as his father's only a little curly and orange like his mothers. Also, with pointy ears from his Hera heritage.
Shorz smiled and yelled. "Uncle Lapis, Joyaku!" He yelled smiling. "Finally, you showed up!"
Lapis chuckled walking up to his nephew and brother-in-law.
"I mean we did say we'd be here by noon." He said to him and glanced around to see hints of a battle. "Looks like you guys had a head start." He looked down at Shorz and asked. "You really are a Saiyan with how bad you wanted to start training."
Shorz giggled while scratching the back of his head as if there was more to it. "Yeah, I thought since it was a weekend dad and I could start now."
Joyaku looked at his cousin suspiciously before grinning. "Come on dad it's obvious, he wanted to warm up because he thinks it'll help him beat me!"
The quarter Saiyan froze when he heard that but responded. "T-that's not true!"
The two children would then start bickering with their words.
Lapis glanced at Trunks.
His in law nodded confirming that what he had said was true.
Lapis looked down at Joyaku who kept making fun of his cousin and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Alright kids, come on, save it for your fight."
Joyaku looked up at his father and nodded and looked at his cousin.
Shorz smiled like a child ready to play.
Trunks kneeled next to his son. "Remember what I told you."
The hybrid nodded but in his head he thought that his plan would work better on Joyaku then his father, so surely it will work on him.
Lapis and Trunks jumped up and stood on a plateau overlooking the deserting islands they decided to train under.
"Think he's going to lose again?" Lapis said with a hint of smugness.
Trunks glanced at Lapis he wasn't as affected by his words as much as Lapis would have liked.
"Well see, Shorz might surprise you."
Lapis shrugged his shoulders and watched their sons fight hoping for another victory from his own.
(-)-(-)-
Shorz stood across from his cousin in a fighting position, his left arm up horizontally, his other arm was risen in a clawed hand, a hybrid of the turtle style and demon style martial arts Gohan had passed down to Trunks.
"Ready cous?" Joyaku asked in a fighting stance with one fist forward and his other at his side, a copy of his father's fighting stance.
"Yeah!"
The two alien hybrids charged at each other.
Shorz threw a fist aiming for Joyaku's face.
Only for the Hera hybrid to duck and tried to swept kick.
But Shorz jumped over the kick.
The orange haired boy then stood and spun kick.
The half lavender haired boy rose his arm and was smashed againts the rock behind him.
Shorz was againts the wall and slowly got out. "Oww" He complained.
"Come on Shorz." Joyaku said. "Transform, our fights no fun without Super Saiyan."
"Grr" The brainiac hated that he couldn't fight him without Super Saiyan, but Heras have a stronger base then Saiyans from the looks of it. "Fine"
Shorz yelled as his dual tone hair rose, his blue eyes changed to green, and of course his hair spiked up looking like a younger Trunks as Super Saiyan.
Joyaku smiled happy that Shorz was now willing to give this everything he had.
The two clashed again.
Shorz threw a punch aiming for his gut, but Joyaku blocked it, though he still dragged across the ground.
The quarter Saiyan smiled thinking he had the upper hand and assaulted him.
The young Super Saiyan kept throwing punches and kicks while the half Hera kept blocking though with limited success.
Joyaku may be much stronger than Shorz in base but as a Super Saiyan he had to resort to defense to stay in the fight.
Shorz slammed a knee into Joyaku's stomach, he then threw a kick across his head, and a spin kick sending him back.
The half Hera stopped himself and rose his arm. "Photon Flash!" He yelled as his father's technique fired, a yellow wave of energy.
Shorz jumped with his hand out wielding a pink energy ball. "Power Blitz!"
He tossed the ball of energy towards him.
Joyaku jumped over the blast.
The energy ball was beneath Joyaku and he was going to successfully avoid it.
But Shorz squeezed his fists.
Like before it detonated before it impacted the ground.
The explosion sent the half Hera up.
And Shorz jumped and kneed the back of his cousin, then he flipped, and axe kicked on his stomach sending the half Hera downward.
He crashed against the ground and created a crater from the Super Saiyan's strength.
Joyaku was on the ground and looked at his cousin who had his hands downward.
"Buster Cannon!" He yelled firing a bright blue energy wave.
The half hera swung his arms apart creating a green energy field, his father's technique.
Shorz then stopped and knowing how that barrier was impenetrable.
At least to normal attacks.
He rose a hand readying his newest attack.
A red Ki formed and took the shape of the royal crest of the Vegeta family.
"Royal dagg-"
"Phsyco Thread!" Joyaku spread his hands and used his Hera's inherited power.
Shorz's eyes widened as his entire body froze and was wrapped around in an energy thread.
"No!" He yelled as his hair started to fall and revert him to his base.
"Ha!" Joyaku yelled as he walked forward. "Looks like it's my win!" Lapis's son said smiling.
He undid the threads and Shorz fell to his knees.
The quarter Saiyan looked at his cousin and whined. "That wasn't fair! You always use that move when I'm about to win!"
Joyaku rolled his eyes, it wasn't his fault that he didn't know how to avoid it.
"Shorz, that's enough."
The young boy looked to see his father descending in front of the boys.
"But dad!" The child yelled in a whiney tone. "He always uses that move and it's always when I'm about to win."
Trunks didn't get swayed in fact he only glared more, similarly to what his father would do, and it would scare Shorz.
"You should've learned able to avoid them by now, don't blame the enemy, blame yourself for falling for it every time."
His son had a high IQ, but he always let his frustrations get in the way of learning how to fight properly.
Shorz looked down not happy to hear how his father was disappointed.
Joyaku giggled knowing that his win was earned.
"Wipe that grin off your face, you're not much better."
"Huh?" The half Hera turned to see his father land behind him with his hands in his pockets. "What? But I won, what I do wrong?"
Lapis looked down at him.
"And I reminded you not to rely on Phsyco threads in every fight, sooner or later he's going to figure out how to get past it and you'll be vulnerable."
Joyaku frowned hearing that and looked down.
Trunks and Lapis saw that their children still had plenty to learn, they looked and grinned at each other.
"What do ya say we show these kids how it's done?"
The two boys looked at each other and smiled excited to see their fathers fight.
(-)-(-)-
In a lab in the Demon Realm Towa was typing on a computer, she was again trying to figure out the formula to fuel the time machine, but she was having no success as usual.
Even more reason to have a partner.
Just then a beeping noise was heard.
She turned to the source and smiled. Speak of the devil.
The container label 21 had opened and a figure walked out.
Towa got out of her chair and walked to what hopefully will be a welcome addition to her cause.
"Welcome, Android 21."
21 was a woman with big, long brown hair, wearing glasses over her blue eyes like plenty of Androids had. She had a lab coat over an outfit that was red in blue in four corners.
The android looked at her hands, she opened and closed them for a moment before staring at Towa.
"Something wrong?" Towa asked. "I uploaded everything you needed to know, while finishing what was needed on your blueprints."
21 had smiled and said. "Forgive me, it's just been a while since I was activated, I think it's been hmm" She put a hand to her chin. "29 years, I think. Maybe 30?"
All she remembered was Gero putting her to sleep so he can focus on that 'Perfect' Android he was on about.
"Eh, whatever, anyway it's been a while so excuse me while I'm trying to collect my bearings."
Towa was relieved to hear that, she hadn't screwed up her new Android. "Very well, once you're done you must assist me with creating the fuel for the Time Machine." She pointed at the computer screen.
21 looked at the screen as her eyes lit up with symbols and equations. She then smiled and turned to her.
"Alright, I just took care of your programming."
That made Towa freeze.
"What?"
21 chuckled and pointed to her head.
"I had a feeling that I needed to help you and nothing else, but I knew it didn't feel right since we just met, so I made sure to undo it to keep my free will." She smiled at Towa cockily.
Towa gritted her teeth, she thought she had made the ideal partner while reconstructing her.
21 still smiled and spoke. "Aww, don't be embarrassed Gero wasn't so great at AI either, I always did tell that silly man to let me handle it, I probably could have done a better job making 17 and 18 obedient, but he was too stubborn to accept the fact that he had his flaws and was so insistent on handling his creations by himself."
She looked at the data and saw 17 and 18 kill Dr Gero before they began their rampaging all because of a loophole he left for them to take advantage of.
"That stubbornness was what got him killed, sad to say since that was part of why I loved him." She stopped and giggled. "Oops, sorry, it was part of why Vomi always loved him, I have a habit of mistaking myself for her."
She looked at the data and saw Vomi, Gero's human wife that died. He based her design on her, perhaps a way to honor her or to pretend she hadn't died.
21 was brought back to reality when Towa brought her staff to her chin.
Towa glared at her insulted at how her attempt to make her subservient to her failed.
"Fine, I have my own mind control that I can use" Her staff glowed ready to kill her attempted ally.
21 giggled as if she had nothing to fear. "Come now, I only wanted my free will, I didn't say I wouldn't help you."
Towa looked confused at her but still pointed her staff at her.
"I'm willing to be your partner not your lacky." 21 stated. "You can either try to control me, waste your magic which would be distracting, or you can agree to a true partnership with some conditions you need to fill."
Towa mulled over her options, it took a while just to awaken her, it'd be a hassle to keep her under her control while trying to utilize her knowledge.
She placed her staff down.
"What are your terms?"
21 smiled glad to have her way.
"First off, after creating your time machine I'd like to gather some more material for myself." She looked at her hand with a frown. "I feel as though something's missing that I am meant to be more than this, I don't feel whole."
The small spybots in her lab sadly didn't gather as much as DNA as she would have liked. Destroyed during the android's rampage.
Towa wasn't sure she could trust her with that, but she had something that can handle her when it comes.
"Fine, that was my plan anyway for my own creation." She turned to the container with a man with lines down his face, pointy ears, and white spikey hair.
21 looked at the android and smiled. "Ah yes your own android, I hope for your sake he's more compliant than 17 and 18." She smirked.
"Anything else?" Towa asked.
21 put a finger to her chin for a few moments before smiling.
"I'd like something that was stolen from me."
She had a fond smile thinking of her next request.
(-)-(-)-
The two boys were standing at the plateau their fathers had stood to watch their fight.
"Ha!" Joyaku smiled. "Last time my dad won just like me, also he's been training with my mom, so I bet he's gonna win even faster!"
Shorz looked at him. "But my dad's been training with my mom to, don't just count him out."
The half Hera chuckled and looked at his father and uncle in the sky. "We'll see, if Uncle Trunks wins I'll let you test your invention with the dumb name."
Shorz looked offended and yelled at his cousin. "I said I was work shopping it! I didn't know what to call it!" He yelled comedically thinking of the Might Lender, that he showed his father recently.
Trunks was floating above a body of water with his arms crossed.
Lapis landed in front of him with a blank expression. "Ready?"
"Always"
The Android clenched his fists and yelled. "Kaioken times 5!"
His body wrapped around in light red Aura.
Trunks powered up to his Ultimate form, his hair spiked and a white Aura with blue lightning.
The two charged at each other and clashed their forearms into each other.
Both entered a clash of punches and kicks.
Trunks landed a punch into Lapis's gut.
He then slammed a fist across the Android's jaw launching him away for a moment.
Trunks grabbed Lapis's ankle and spun before tossing him down on a deserted island.
The island crumbled and the Android flew out of the ocean.
Trunks kept a straight face as he watched him fly towards him.
Lapis threw fist but it was different, wrapped in his Android Barrier.
Trunks noticed and tried to block.
The barriered fist landed and sent the Saiyan away, the force of this new attack was strong enough to send him flying.
Then Lapis appeared behind him and slammed his foot straight into his back.
Trunks was sent forward from the kick.
The Android then swiftly chased after him before raising his hand he threw a hand forward releasing a Photon Flash.
Trunks caught his momentum and kicked the yellow energy wave upward.
Lapis then spun kick for Trunks's face.
The half Saiyan rose an arm as the kick connected with a bored expression.
The Android looked at his non-challant expression.
Trunks then pushed back his arm forcing the Android back without saying a word.
Once the android caught himself midair he looked at Trunks's blank face.
"Tch" Trunks had a disappointed face, he wasn't going to humor him anymore. "I was really hoping I can at least make you struggle without this but fine."
He closed his eyes and tensed his muscles preparing for his technique.
His light red aura grew, indicating he was pushing his Kaiken, he was now utilizing times 8.
Trunks noticed the number and smirked he rose his Kaioken to another level.
Lapis rose his fists and tried to smash his fists down on top of Trunks's head.
Trunks rose his arm to block it and noticeably with more effort.
The impact made the ocean beneath them made gigantic waves.
Trunks threw a fist only for Lapis to rise an arm and catch it he grimaced as if still showing effort.
Not done the half Saiyan slammed a kick into Lapis's stomach, he then smashed his fist several times into his stomach before flipping and smashing his fists on top of Lapis's head.
Sending him crashing below the ocean again.
Just then a yellow light was launched below him.
Trunks moved out of the way from the blast.
Behind him Lapis appeared with his hands in a position similar to Piccolo's Destructive Wave.
The half Saiyan rose his arms in a cross block expecting a Ki blast.
But Lapis grinned and a transparent yellow energy spread from his hand and wrapped around Trunks's body and surrounded him like a bubble.
"What the! What's this move!" He yelled finding his body stunned and unable to move.
Lapis smirked glad to see it worked. "I picked this trick up from my fight with 'Frieza'." It wasn't so hard to copy since it uses barriers which is the Android's speacialty.
Trapped in the yellow ball Lapis slammed a kick sending the trapped warrior away.
He then vanished slamming a backhand into the ball sending him away, then he vanished and kicked the ball upward.
Trunks grimaced feeling the Kaioken enhanced attacks as he was sent flying, he couldn't move
Lapis appeared above with his back turned to Trunks heading up at him.
He then backflipped and slammed a kick down on top of the ball where Trunks's head is.
Once he hit the ocean a large yellow explosion was made, a giant sphere shaped energy formed from the impact.
Lapis looked down still wrapped in his light red Kaioken Aura, he had a blank expression as if knowing that this wasn't enough to take him out.
And he couldn't stay in Kaioken forever, his cybernetics can only take so much damage.
He dashed downward determined to take the win.
And like clockwork from the ocean Trunks dashed upward coverered in scratches and his jacket had holes in it, and the armor he wore underneath was damaged in the breastplate.
Lapis swung a kick aiming for his face.
Trunks ducked underneath and slammed a punch to his stomach.
It forced the Android to keel over.
Trunks then grabbed Lapis's arm and swung with him and slammed him down on to a tiny amount of land and crached the ground.
Lapis opened one eye and his eyes widened, he jumped back.
Trunks slammed a kick into the ground which shattered the rest of the small island.
Lapis approached and slammed a fist across Trunks's face, he then slammed an elbow into the half Saiyan's gut and slammed an uppercut in his chin forcing him to stumble back.
The Android then swung for a fist into his stomach.
Trunks recovered and grabbed Lapis's fist much to his surprise, the half Saiyan then pulled and slammed his elbow across Lapis's cheek.
He then slammed a kick at the Android's side.
Lapis grimaced and threw a fist back.
Trunks swayed the attack and then resorted to a fist into Lapis's chin and then he slammed a kick into the Android's torso forcing him to skid back.
Lapis couldn't believe it, he was at times 8 and Trunks was still showing that he can more than match it. He looked ahead to see Trunks racing towards him ready to clash again.
The Android grinned, as if he hadn't shown all his cards yet.
Trunks's hands glowed light blue and he thrusted them forward firing a Buster Cannon.
Lapis spread his arms apart unleashing his Android barrier. The energy wave slammed into the force field and redirected into the sky above, although there was a crack on the barrier.
This didn't deter Trunks who then slammed a fist into the barrier making the crack bigger.
He then slammed multiple punches and kicks at the barrier breaking the barrier with each strike.
Lapis can see that the damage he had done wasn't enough to drain his energy the right amount to give him an advantage.
Guess he'll need to show it now.
Trunks slammed a fist into the barrier finally shattering the remaining barrier, he smirked as he then rose his hands ready to end the fight with a Finish Buster.
And Lapis grinned, ready to show his ace.
He screamed as his aura grew more showing his pushing his Kaioken again, this time he jumped to times 10 his current maximum.
This surprised Trunks as the Androids light red Kaioken Aura flared and he slammed a kick up Trunks's chin.
The half Saiyan rose from the kick.
Lapis showed a pained expression, he wasn't used to doing Kaioken at this level, if he was this capable he would have been able to destroy Baby by himself.
Trunks caught himself mid air and saw Lapis fly right at him.
The half Saiyan threw a punch downward.
But the cyborg vanished and appeared above with his arms rosed. He slammed his fists downward on top of Trunks's head.
Trunks was heading towards the ground, but before he would crash into the ocean Lapis slammed a kick into Trunks's gut.
The half Saiyan slammed into a mounting, the entire earth crumbled and buried him in it.
Trunks rose from the mound of dirt and was panting, his energy was waning faster and faster. This sudden jump was surprising, he wasn't sure how to pull this off.
Lapis dashed towards him determined to take the win.
The half Saiyan fired a Buster Cannon into the ground and allowed it to propel him up before he threw a missed punch.
Trunks raced down aiming a kick downward.
Lapis grinned and spread his arms apart releasing a barrier.
The empowered barrier didn't even break once Trunks's kick.
The Android smirked as he threw a fist.
Only for Trunks to smile and placed his hands on his head.
"Solar Flare!"
Lapis immediately looked away and focused on his energy senses to throw a fist aiming to finish the fight.
But then he felt something against his neck.
He slowly opened his eyes to see a familiar red energy blade aimed at his neck.
Trunks wasn't going to rely on Solar flare to win the fight it was to catch him off guard with his most deadly attack, the Royal Blade.
Although it didn't seem to do anything despite contacting Lapis's neck.
"Looks like it's my win." Trunks pointed out with a smile.
Lapis frowned for a few seconds angry at himself for believing Trunks to use a predictable move like Solar Flare.
He smirked.
"Damn, was really hoping to win a second time." Lapis's Kaioken Aura faded, and he smiled.
Trunks smirked as his hair fell at his shoulders.
The two fived each other clearly enjoying the fight.
Just then their sons ran to them.
"That was so cool!" Joyaku yelled as he ran towards Lapis. "Dad, you made a barrier around your fists at the last second how did you do that?"
Lapis ruffled his son's orange hair.
Shorz looked up at his father with stary eyes. "You were amazing dad you were able to fight against Uncle Lapis even though he was using 10 times Kaioken! And you outsmarted him making him think you were using Solar Flare."
Trunks knelt next to his son and smiled.
"Just hope you learned something."
The half Saiyan looked at Joyaku. "Remember you two, it's good you have this rivalry, but you will need to learn to work together." He explained. "And if you keep getting better, I'll teach you a technique that I learned in other world."
A technique that he described to Lapis and Lazuli but all agreed that it was too risky to use against Baby giving how good of a parasite he was.
He smiled looking at his son's eager face, he seemed to have inherited both his grandmother's genes and his determination to get stronger.
And he'll ensure he does, while he will enjoy this peace, he knows it won't last forever and he'll need to be sure that the next generation will be ready.
While he's here he will make sure that they get all the time they need to take up the reigns.
And that they enjoy whatever peace they will have.

Demon Realm
Towa wasn't pleased that she didn't make 21 the puppet she had in mind for her attempt at recreating the time machine.
But watching her do half the calculations for the formula made her realize how this was worth it.
21 hummed a tune as she was going through multiple equations at once.
"So, your last formula, you overdone it with the plutonium here." She instructed. "You also need to upgrade the engine for a less explosive result." She giggled thinking about the last time she tried to make it alone.
Towa twitched hearing that and sighed as she kept doing her side of the work, she fulfilled all her critiques and pressed a button.
Just then a liquid filled a large glass container.
The blue demon held the fuel and walked over to the time machine and looked at the Android.
"If this doesn't work, I am scrapping you and remaking you."
21 shrugged her shoulders and smiled. "Noted."
Towa put the canister in the time machine and then pressed a button.
It started to rise, no explosion and the dial for the era to visit was working.
Beside her 21 appeared in the time machine.
The time machine vanished.
(-)-(-)-
The time machine appeared in a completely different place, a ruined city and blue sky, clearly wherever the time machine took them, they were on earth.
The glass dome on top opened and the two women floated over it and observed their surroundings they were in some sort of city, one of the ones ruined by 17 and 18 no doubt.
Towa jumped out and looked around and immediately picked up on something.
Not far from the time machine there was a familiar scene.
A younger Trunks with short lavender hair and a blue jacket with a black undershirt stood across from not Lapis and Lazuli, but 17 and 18 back when they were under the control of Dr Gero's programming.
And the half Saiyan was holding a familiar button up.
"No!" 17 and 18 raced forward to stop him but Trunks pressed the button before they could reach him and fell to the ground like lifeless dolls.
As the scene played out Towa focused on the androids that had fell so easily to that device.
21 got out of the time machine and landed next to her smiling.
"Well, well, lookie here, so this was how Trunks had stopped them." She frowned at it. "Eh, kind of anti-climactic."
Towa said nothing and watched as the boy had his hands out ready to fire a powerful Ki blast to destroy them.
She smiled, the time machine had worked, and… she already had an idea.
The demon waved her staff much to 21's confusion.
"What'cha doing?" She asked as the demon's staff glowed.
Trunks had blasted the androids to make sure they never get revived just like the original timeline.
As soon as that was done, Trunks flew off without knowing what had happened.
From where he can't see the Towa was smiling while looking up.
21 giggled at the sight. "Wow, looks like you got an idea cooking already, good can't wait to see it!"
In front of them were the bodies of 17 and 18 floating, wrapped in purple Ki, still deactivated.
Towa smirked at the two androids.
"These two won't be such a thorn in my side."
21 looked at the two Androids with a smile. "I only ever seen them like this, I never had the pleasure of actually meeting them."
Towa looked at her partner and smiled. "I'm sure you can make friends with them, you are great with AI correct?"
The Android shrugged her shoulders. "Sure, but now that the time machine works, this won't be the only era we're visiting, right?" She really wanted to add more components to her being.
"Of course, these two are only the beginning." She said looking at the two Androids. "Come let's take them to the lab and we'll keep looking for anything and anyone useful to add to our cause."
She said as she floated to the time machine.
21 looked at her oddly before turning to where this timeline's Trunks was.
"What about him? I figured you'd want to kill him before moving on."
Towa stood on the time machine after placing 17 and 18 in the luggage part of the time machine and thought of what 21 had said.
"I wanted to but I thought of something better." She smirked and looked at the city around them.
"This planet only survived not just because of Trunks, but because of his alliance with the Androids." She explained while looking all around her.
"Now that were taking their bodies, the dragon wouldn't have anything to bring back, only Trunks after Cell kills him." She smiled sadistically while turning to 21. "Don't you think a worse punishment is to see how he fares without them?"
21 was quite shocked to hear that, it sounded crueler than killing him.
"Let's visit this timeline again when we have the time, I'd love to see how he handles Broly, Daburack, or even just the remaining androids." She said with a fanged smile.
The android giggled. "You really are a demon." She said to her. "I think I like you, I think that this is going to be a beautiful friendship."
Towa nodded, with her these two Androids will make useful pawns for her revenge.
And they are just the beginning.
The duo entered the time machine and vanished with the bodies of the living but shutdown Androids.
Robbing this timeline of Lapis and Lazuli, leaving this timeline's Trunks to fend for himself.
And this will not be the last timeline that will be affected by Towa's machinations.
One reason this chapter took so long to come is because I couldn't decide how strong to make the androids.
I thought of making them on par with 17 from Super, but after discussing with a friend I ended up deciding not to do that.
Becaus DBS 17 was on par, probably stronger than Blue Goku, that makes him waaaaay stronger than anything in my story, so I decided that in this timeline Gero focused on his programming rather than the power of his androids, it's the only way.
And Goku in base is said to have the power of Super Saiyan God so u can see why it's too much of a jump to be consistent with the androids of my story.
If they had this potential, then they'd be too strong for my story, but who knows maybe they'll be a way for them to make the jump or at least scratch the surface at the end of the arc, we'll see.
Well discuss power scaling another time.
So I hope everyone's cool with that decision if not I understand.
I might make another story that is more consistent with canon and the Android's potential one day but we'll see.
Anyway 17 and 18 from Chapter 1 of this story are now taken by Towa and 21, so this timeline will not have Lapis and Lazuli as long as Towa has their bodies.
So we'll call this the Time Travel Saga, an appropriate final arc for this story, hope you guys look forward to it.
The Rocha: There going to have fun causing so much mayhem together lol.
He's gonna have to rename it though lol, we'll see.
Perhaps there's gonna be a lot of time travel here.
Guest: That's what I heard. And glad you enjoyed the chapter and I'll check it out, thank u for recommending it.
SuperSaiyajin4Vegeta: Pretty much, it's basically another version of Royal Blade.
Shadowwriter01: Absolutely, it was a kid naming it so I wanted it silly.
That is true.
Kind of, although it doesn't transfer Ki from one person to another, someone has to transfer their Ki into it and then whoever weilds it can use it as if it were their own, so it's similar.
Sorry guys for the long wait I know the wait wasn't worth it but I hope you enjoyed it for what it was.
Thx for reading guys and hope to see ya'll next time.
Have an awesome day!:)
