Everyone watched as the lavender-haired man started to fly towards a random direction, feeling unsure if he was telling the truth. "I'm going to follow him," spoke Gohan, feeling that he should trust the unknown man.
As Gohan started to fly, Krillin followed shortly behind him before the rest of the fighters started to follow closely behind. Vegeta was still skeptical if they should follow him, needing to know how he was able to become a super saiyan.
They watched closely as the unknown man landed at a specific location, guessing that he was telling the truth. As they landed, Bulma noticed that the man had pulled out a small box of capsules that had the same logo as well.
'How does he know about those? Only my family uses those products...' The lavender haired man then threw the capsule onto the ground as it popped open a small cooler. "We still have three hours left until Goku and Nemui arrives"
Opening a can of juice, he gave one to the hybrid, chuckling as he made him smile. It seems that Gohan and Bulma were able to easily trust the man, but Tien, Piccolo, and Vegeta were still thinking about it.
They knew that he defeated Frieza and the other individual with ease, but they still kept guard. The man noticed that the blue haired woman was staring at him. "Have we met before?" Bulma questioned, receiving a no from him.
"So how did you know my dad and Nemui?" spoke Gohan, wanting to see how much the man knew about them. "I've heard stories about them, but never really met them" he answered as he averted his eyes away from them, but Vegeta was able to catch it.
"Who the hell are you? How did you manage to attain that kind of power?" The short saiyan was bombarding the unknown man with questions, seeing that he was starting to feel a bit nervous.
"I-I'm sorry... I can't tell you that" he mumbled an answer. "But when you defeated Frieza, you turned into a super saiyan, didn't you?" added the hybrid, earning a shaky nod from him.
"Lies! The only saiyans remaining are myself, Nemui and Goku. And the little half-breed kid here, so there's no way that you could be a saiyan" Vegeta then studied that young man's features, noticing that he had lavender.
"Plus, saiyans are supposed to have all black hair..." the saiyan informed, causing Bulma to take a look at his appearance as well. Looking at the purple jacket, she noticed that it had a 'Capsule Corporation' patch logo on the arm of the jacket.
She questioned the man to see if he was one of their employees, never seeing that they had merchandise. "I can't tell you anything, but I can tell you that I'm seventeen years old," he informed.
As the conversations had died down in the tense atmosphere, everyone started to relax somewhere in the area, seeing that they're going to be there for a while. Bulma watched Vegeta staring at the boy, never taking his eyes off him.
"Hey, do you think those two look alike?" Next to her was Krillin, watching the bald warrior cock a brow at the question. "Maybe a little... But their personalities are completely different"
Krillin could feel the frustrated energy from Vegeta, guessing that he was trying to pressure the boy with more questions. 'This is going to take a while...'

As the three hours had passed, they watched the lavender haired man stand up from the ground. Taking a look at his watch, he alerted everyone that you and Goku were about to arrive.
Looking towards the sky, they see a saiyan spaceship heading towards them, but it was slightly bigger than a normal one. "So he was telling the truth..." Vegeta muttered as he started to feel a familiar energy.
Eventually, everyone started to feel the familiar energy, but they noticed that it was just one. "It's my dad's! He's here!" shouted Gohan, his voice filled with excitement as he took flight.
They watched the spaceship crash a few yards away from them, making everyone follow Gohan with eagerness. They watched as the door slowly started to open and reveal two saiyans with similar hair.
The first one to reveal was Goku, his wide obsidian eyes surveyed the area to see that everyone was here. He also had a different outfit on. "When did they get here...?" As he stepped out, you followed close behind him.
A tired grumble escaped your lips while you rubbed your eyes, seeing that you just woke up from a nap. You also had the same outfit Goku had. "Goku! Nemui!" Yamcha shouted as you both slowly ascended to the air.
"How did they know that we were landing here?" you questioned in a tired tone. "That's what I'm trying to figure out..." Goku replied with a confused expression. Vegeta watched closely at the both of you.
'So they did escape...' he thought, something deep inside him was glad that you both escaped in time. "Hey you two, this boy right here told us you would be landing here!"
"Do you guys know him?" questioned Gohan, watching his father tilt his head. "No... Who is he?" he answered, watching confusion laced their friends' faces. "We've never met him." you stated, wanting to clarify the statement.
"But he knew exactly where you two would land at" informed Bulma. You watched the unknown man look towards the ground, as if he was hiding something. "So who was the one that defeated Frieza? While we were on our way here, we felt his energy disappear..."
"He was the one who dealt with Frieza and the others" explained Piccolo as he pointed towards the boy. "He could also become a super saiyan as well" the added information caused Goku's eyes to widen.
"Another super saiyan?! That's amazing! And you're so young as well!" he exclaimed, causing the boy to slightly flush with embarrassment. You felt eyes on you as you turned to see that it was the unknown man.
'How does he know about us? We've never seen him before...'
You noticed that he told you both to come over to him, seeing that he needed to word from you two. "Can I talk to you two for a bit. I need to tell you guys something" You and Goku exchange a look before giving him a nod.
Yamcha wanted to know why couldn't say anything in front of everyone, but they just ignored him. You three walked towards a boulder a few yards away, seeing that the young man wanted to speak in private.
"We should thank you for defeating Frieza. I'm still wondering how he was even alive..." the man gave you a sheepish smile. "It's fine, fathe-" the man quickly closed his mouth, causing you and Goku to cock a brow.
He cleared his throat before speaking. "Um, you two were supposed to defeat Frieza, but for some reason, you guys weren't going to make it in time. So I had to intervene." Goku hummed at his explanation.
"But I'm sure we were going to make it in time. We both picked up a technique, it's called 'Instant Transmission" The boys widened at the information, as if he didn't know that was going to happen.
"When we escaped from Namek, we landed on a planet named Yardrat. The people on the planet taught us some useful techniques" the more you continued to speak, the more the boy continued to sweat.
'So... That means I've needlessly changed the course of history... I was only supposed to meet Goku and Nemui...'
The boy took a deep breath, needing to calm himself down while controlling his breathing. "Goku. Nemui. Before I go, are you two able to freely transform into a super saiyan at will?"
The lavender haired man had a pleading glint in his eyes, as if he needed to make sure everything was right in the timeline. You both gave him a reassuring nod, causing the boy to smile.
In an instant, you both powered up, watching your black hair turn into blonde as your eyes turned teal. He noticed that your super saiyan forms were different. Goku's hair was spiked up while yours flowed freely.
"Is this okay?" you questioned, earning a grateful nod from the boy. "Yes, thank you both..." he spoke as his expression turned serious. "Now I'll turn into one..." you watched as his lavender strands of hair started to float as it turned blonde as well.
"We really do look alike..." the statement caused you both to smile, seeing that the boy had trained hard to achieve this form. You both watched him pull out a sword, but you didn't make any movement.
With quickness, he aimed his sword towards you, but you didn't move away from the attack as he froze with uncertain. "W-why didn't you move out of the way?" he questioned with a stutter. "Because we didn't sense any malicious intent..." you replied with a knowing tone.
The swordsman hummed at your statement before he swung his sword with precise accuracy. With one finger, you both blocked the weapon with ease, not breaking eye contact with the boy.
Vegeta and the others watched with disbelief expressions. You three moved with incredible speed, only seeing blurs. "S-so this is what a super saiyan can do?" He watched the swordsman stop his furious attacks, putting it away as he powered down.
"Amazing, so the stories I've heard about you guys were true. You guys are even better from what I've been told" you both smiled at the boy, knowing that he meant no harm in those attacks.
An audible gulp was emitted from the boy as his facial expression turned serious with a pleading glint in his eyes. "Please keep everything I'm about to tell you locked away in your mind alone" he received a reassured nod from you, telling him that he was okay to speak.
"This is going to be hard to believe for someone of your era, but... I came here in a time machine, roughly twenty years in the future..." He then took a deep breath, seeing that he had more to say.
"My name is Trunks. The reason I carry saiyan blood is because I am the son of Vegeta" shocked expressions washed over your serious ones. You were both silent for a moment, making sure to take in the information before speaking.
"So he's your old man, huh?" you questioned as you turned towards the group from far away. "I was born two and a half years from now," he added. "But there is something important I need you two to know."
He explained that in the next three years, on May 12th, a fearsome duo are going to appear. The two enemies were artificial humans on earth; basically androids. "The one who created them is a mad scientist of the Red Ribbon Army, Dr. Gero."
Goku's eyes widened at the certain name. "Have you dealt with them before, Goku?" you questioned, earning a shaky nod from him. "I fought against them as a kid when I first arrived on earth. I destroyed their bases..."
Trunks then explained that a scientist had survived Goku by hiding away and continuing his research. The scientist had built killing machines who would cause destruction and slaughter for fun.
"Did you have anyone to help you?" you questioned, watching the boy freeze before putting his head down. You could've sworn you saw a tear slowly stream down his face, but he quickly wiped it off.
"No one... Twenty years from now, I'm the only warrior remaining..." his blue eyes were slowly starting to slightly tear up. "Three years from now, my father, including Krillin, Piccolo, Yamcha, Tien, and Chiaotzu... They were all killed."
His body started to shake from the emotions creeping up on him, but he had to finish the explanation before he went. "Gohan had barely escaped; he became my teacher and taught me everything about fighting..."
As you both took in the information, you slightly raised your hand, making him turn his attention towards you. "So where did me and Goku go? What happened to us?" you questioned, earning a nod of agreement from Goku.
"Well... Goku never fought. He will come down with an illness, in which it will resort to his death" he paused for a moment, as if he didn't want to speak of the situation. "And you Nemui... You took care of me and Gohan. You tried very hard to protect u-us... But then you vanished..."
Tears slowly began to stream down his face, the thought of you disappearing and Gohan was the next person that took care of him. "The only thing I have to remember you is this..." you watched as he pulled out a napkin from his pocket.
As he unraveled it, it revealed itself to be a tiny piece of purple glass. He then pointed towards his ear. "When you vanished, we found a piece of your earring in the destruction..."
He watched you blink at the information as you touched your earring. 'It can break...?'
"Aw, man! I really wanted to fight those guys!" Goku whined, knowing that he was going to train even harder. Trucks gave him a wide-eyed expression as he wiped his tears away. "That part upsets you the most is that you won't get to fight? You don't feel any fear?"
"Sure, I'm afraid. But I really want to know if we can beat them!" The swordsman chuckled at Goku's excitement as he folded the napkin with the broken pierce and placed it away. Reaching onto his breast pocket, he pulled out a capsule and gave it to Goku.
"You two are truly genuine saiyan warriors. When the symptoms start to appear, take this. It's medicine that will save you from your disease" The cheerful saiyan thanked him as he placed it in his pocket.
"I have faith in both of you. My mother has faith in both of you as well when she completed the time machines..." Goku then rapidly shook his head as a wavering smile laced his lip. "W-wait... Don't tell me your mother is..."
Trunks chuckled at his shocked expression as he pointed towards the blue haired woman. "Your mother is Bulma?!" you couldn't help but silently chuckle at the information. 'So she left Yamcha, huh?'
"Yeah, she got tired of him playing baseball, and they eventually broke up. Around that time, she saw my father. She explained that he looked lonely, and well. It happened. But they really didn't get married."
A hum escaped Goku's lips as he asked another question. "So what happened to the two?" A faint smile appeared on Trunks lips. "They decided to just stay friends. My father eventually got together with two other people and my mother settled for woman."
A pleading expression then laced his face as he begged you two to keep that information a secret. Otherwise, his entire existence would be wiped out. "We'll make sure to keep to ourselves" a reassured smile laced your lips as patted his back.
"I should take my leave now. I'd like to hurry back to my mother and tell her that everything is going to be okay." You both gave him a nod, hoping that time will change when you defeat the androids.
The lavender haired swordsman gave you both a thumbs up as he took flight. You both simultaneously sighed, the amount of information that was explained was going to be a lot to handle.
"How are we going to explain this to everyone?" Goku pondered. "We can try, but I know that they'll beg us to spill." you replied as you both walked back to the group. "What did he say?!" yelled Krillin.
Goku tried to stutter a lie, but you knew that you two had to spill it. "Spit it out. Something this important will affect all of us." demanded Piccolo, earning a questionable look from Goku. The namekian explained that his sense of hearing is very different from everyone else's.
"Don't worry, I won't say anything that will threaten his existence..." he reassured, earning a sigh of relief from both of you. "But we shouldn't have to die because the rest of us have lacked the motivation of decent training."
"D-die?!"
