Vegeta eyed the stranger for a moment longer then was polite, but he couldn't care less about showing weakness to these two. Trunks… for he wasn't sure if he was a version of him that was made by himself…
'Timelines and shit... needn't bother with that crap but he they were.' he kept silent, eyeing the other once more, looked like some random Saiyan… and the punk had green hair! A female, curious though not that much, though when the Saiyan spotted Towa nearby to where Kron stood, among the likes of Pyrrha, Zangya, Winter… then those other housewives of his, the Saiyan charged in, a direct path for Towa-
-She was halted, the Trunks moved forwards and called out to her even while nearby Tien and Yang, Chiaotzu held up a hand that glowed… halting her advance as she twitched then and there.
"-H-Hold on there now, that Towa isn't the one we've been dealing with. Though I'd ask you to state your intentions in this timeline, I can attest that the two here aren't the duo we've been fighting against-" Vegeta heard Piccolo interrupt, speaking calmly all the while as Chiaotzu maneuvered the halted Saiyan girl into position nearest to that Trunks with his telekinesis.
"We've already tussled with another Towa in our universe, though as of now she has been dealt with and by someone even more dangerous, someone who was spotted among the Frieza Force army yesterday. Demigra as he called himself, well before he became a she. Anyway, the… whatever that person is was spotted among their number, in multiple places and faster then any of us there to escape whenever one of us approached to attack. You two, explain… just who is this guy and why we should be worried about them? We've got a lot to do before we're allowed to deal with Frieza and Cooler… should they return."
"Emhm… yeah, me and my partner here came because there was a distortion… since you know about time travel I'd imagine, due to another Trunks I'll get to the point of the matter. Demigra is a dangerous foe, a demon once from the demon realm who obtained great power and even still, worked to obtain even more power. My… boss, was able to seal him away. The distortion of your timeline was immediately picked up on by my… uh, boss and they sent me here to assess the situation. We've been told to only tell as much information as we can, for no one should know their futures and uh, this timeline is one of the newer ones in our vast vault-"
"-The heck you on about boy! I just got one thing to ask, are you… his spawn, or did I end up with that loudmouth engineer over there! Also, don't be worrying about some nobody, they show their face again and I'll crush them piecemeal. I've been beaten into the ground recently, my strength has risen-" Vegeta was stopped, a hand on his shoulder; Raven stared at him while that scientist woman had a hand, curtsy of Pyrrha, on her mouth.
"Uh… anyway, he's never been able to manifest before though me and my partner here have been dealing with the distortions meant to weaken the lock on his prison, via another version of you there and Mira. This one is much weaker in power, a fragment and by the looks of things, hasn't able to make any sort of changes." Vegeta kept quiet while this Trunks spoke on, Vegeta was sure that this version of Trunks was his own son… though he wouldn't act on it. He wasn't 'his', just another-
"-It is very lucky he hasn't able to be able to change anything, timewise for if he could… according to our boss, will be capable of manipulating the threads of time at a whim, rewriting past battles to favor another side, empower those he deems worthy to augmented power… even erase timelines or create paradox's. As to what his purpose yesterday, a lot of you here mentioned… you spotted him within the battlefield? I'd imagine that his purpose was to obtain fighting energy, Demigra would have that kind of power. We won't meddle, though our priority will be to destroy Demigra… or the version of him which has penetrated his prison in uh, you're timeline.
"And what are you proposing, he is able to escape us should we try and target him and within that body he's possessing also came with a staff and some unique powers as well. He's a demon right, Dabura…" Dabura growled in his booming tone, the Trunks there looked surprised at seeing Dabura for a moment, then returning to a stoic look with eyes watching the Demon king or whatever title he went by these days, Vegeta cared not.
"He was never the ruler of the demon realm, my father was king for a long time before I took to the throne… a lot more of our lineage before our father. Demigra is a demon god; whose magic is still forbidden, he paraded through a lot of… dangerous branches of magic. Though he was sealed away some seventy-five million years ago, before our time, hmph… so whatever knowledge we have of him is… ancient ramblings and old forgotten tomes-"
"-We've got a lot of information about him at our disposal. Seeing you all here, we just wanted to inform you that myself and my partner here shall be moving through your timeline. So get a feel for our Ki now, for will be investigating any sights of Demigra, to try and defeat him before he can fully gain use of his full power."
"Why don't you just extend us your information, leave it to us to defeat him. Since he's the one threatening our timeline, should be our task in dealing with this guy." Tien said, skeptical.
"We may not look it, or that at least when those here I can recognize… look at me you see someone familiar to you. I am someone on a mission, I can assure you that we're powerful, knowledgeable of our enemy and experienced in fighting those who manipulate timelines. And your timeline as it happens, seems to be a ongoing process; our boss wanted us to make it understood that our presence shall not be in anyway an interruption to-"
"-This kid… Demigra and we, we've already fought. The guy even sent a few of our enemies at us, where Lord Beerus got involved. Meaning he used that 'Hakai' technique on those this Demigra empowered against us. Make no mistake now kid, that Demigra guy is on our shi- uh, hit-list along with Cooler and Frieza. Not that I was there… I had heard-" Yamcha interrupting Trunks was himself, interrupted when Goku spoke up, for once the clown had a serious demeanor to him, Vegeta's interest already peaked…. a little.
"I may not know you Trunks, but we've worked with one of a similar background. I think we can trust you, though do know we will help in full once we're finished with this tournament coming up. We're going to be training in the meantime and watching over both Earth, Namek and Sadala. I think will most likely split us up and train on these worlds, best to keep the dragon balls of Earth and Namek with more eyes and the planet Sadala also guarded. I've a question for you too, if you can answer." Trunks looked confused when 'Sadala' was mention, though he kept quiet and listened to Goku. Trunks replied then.
"...Sadala, right. Ask away Goku."
"It might be best if Kron asks. It does involve his daughter after all. Kron, the Jaina from the future, this might be a good chance to see about why time travel hasn't worked when you both tried to get to that future she came back from. Ah shucks, I'll ask. Do you or does your boss know the reason for that." Vegeta looked to Kron for a moment, then to this Trunks when his voice was heard once more.
"Ah well, that I can tell you actually. Not specifics, just that the timeline is currently sealed, for the moment as the being who has infested that particular alternate timeline; branching from your timeline is-"
"-Well then keep it sealed for the moment. Will deal with that locked timeline after we've settled things in our own time. A tournament… then the Cold brothers. And Demigra too. Your boss seems capable enough to keep those two sealed there for a long time… they can continue to do so. Now your welcome to train with us if you find yourselves time to do so. As for this meeting… I feel I might have overplayed my hand when I took the fight to Cooler. Enjoyed myself, for he was one opponent who I can dish out my full caliber of strength and the lizard can take it… which is why I was slow in defeating him before Lord Beerus gave the order to spare him. Enemies like those, are becoming less a sighting in our universe for we've dealt with most of them, with Cell now being erased forever too. So, I'll sorry but not sorry, Cooler will die by my hand in time…" Kron turned to Goku, adding.
"Gives you and Vegeta the time also to deal with Frieza with finality, after the tournament is done with. Now we all, here except for the time-traveling duo; which planets we shall be separated on for the time being. I'll volunteer for either Sadala or Earth."
"I'll stay on Earth then, Yang too. Chiaotzu also… yeah, he agrees." Chiaotzu was done nodding, Tien finished speaking as Yamcha spoke up next.
"Earth, I've got baseball practice to attend, got to keep my job and all. Puar would miss me too. Krillin." the bald shrimp shrugged, with eyes all on him he slightly shrank back for a moment, replying with a hesitant tone.
"Y-Yeah, Earth or Namek would be good. Though if we're to go to Earth, do we get supplied with you know, a capsule house and supplies? Gravity chambers and whatever else-" that woman Winter nodded, replying with a firm tone, cutting through his words before he could add anything else.
"-Yes, naturally. Within reason of course. Though for those thinking in training on either Sadala or Namek, there is always the opportunity for you to learn the 'Instant Transmission technique' from one of those who know so. Mastering that… you could train on your chosen world and easily be capable of returning home. Remember that King Kai is listening in and will offer support for those who need the assistance afforded to you by his power to increase the range of that technique if you lack the skill to use it."
Soon enough, others left and right were offering their own words, choosing planets out of the three they were to train on, Vegeta decided on taking his family to Sadala… set himself up nearby the first city that had over the years formed there, to train himself in familiar territory of his race. Also he would knock around his subjects to a degree, see if any of them were worthwhile as guards or something… shit, he is king but he was finding himself not caring in the slightest about whatever the heck they were getting up to, leaving most of the leading to Nappa and Bardock. His father as well… the old man was becoming a nag, Vegeta and his brother Tarble were finding more common ground… their father, not so much.
(Shin-POV)
He oversaw the meeting on Earth until it's conclusion, before his sights were set on seeing what Cooler and Frieza were doing. Once Lord Beerus delivered them to their capital planet and their spent force returned to their home worlds did Shin move his gaze away from them for the time being, now on the lookout for any sign of Demigra. Learning about these two Saiyan's from the future, sent here from some unknown time was… unsettling. This Trunks and their partner were to be searching for that Demigra primarily, Shin decided to meet with them sometime later on and introduce himself to the two, as the Supreme Kai he felt it was his duty to meet these time travelers. Soon enough he will. For now his old comrades, with the other Supreme Kai's taking a huge load off his shoulders in taking their past duties, he had more time to observe the universe.
'This enemy is illusive still. Dangerous a foe, I'll also make sure that this individual doesn't try and revive any of the high level dangers in the hellish dimensions.' he and King Kai would work together for until this foe is found.
(Piccolo-POV)
Piccolo decided to go with Nail to the new Namek when Moori finished wishing it back, also wishing it a lot closer to Earth and Sadala; closer then the original spot. The meeting didn't go on for much longer, for there wasn't much to discuss besides the why about Cooler and Frieza now going to be their teammates… along with the Trunks and his fellow Saiyan from whatever future they came from.
He arrived, himself and Nail came together with the Namekian's, where he began his training in earnest, nothing no longer to halt his time in training. Just the summons, when that would happen, until it did he was starting his training and at the moment, was standing opposite a clone of him. He flickered forwards, their clash beginning once more.
"Haaaaaaaagh!" flickering from spot to spot, they kept up their brutish melee clash somewhere far off from the main islands, over one of the smaller islands of Namek, the planet having been recently returned in it's most pristine condition.
He didn't come alone to the planet, besides Nail and the Namekian's he also arrived with Nouva Shenron and his 'sister' Oceanus Shenron, she only came to guard the planet until the threat to the dragon balls were dealt with, namely Frieza and his brother. Besides them, the only other one who went with them was Raditz, who went somewhere more remotely with Nouva for their training.
"Haagh, come on then, let's finish this for the day with one last attack." the clone smirked, two fingers held in front of his face, Piccolo himself now matching him in attack. The energy being poured into the 'Super Beam Cannon' technique hummed loudly, air around the two of them slowly rippling and in a moment after, the two thrust both their attacks forwards, the beams entering into a energy clash, the flashing of both techniques subject to blinding them which is why he and the clone were squinting at the other.
The beams detonated a moment after, a sudden bright flashing and the energy that flashed brightly fading quickly after. Piccolo then flickered forwards multiple times, meeting up with the clone in the middle, though they only stared at the other for a few seconds when the two flashed forwards a second after, the clone folding into Piccolo as he growled out loud when he reabsorbed the clone and the energy back into his reserves. Piccolo also left his transformations drift away from use, returning his skin color to it's natural green.
"...Nail, when did you arrive. I didn't sense you until now, your own training has improved." Nail floating nearby, smirking back at him.
"Just a few minutes Piccolo, the elder from the nearest village invites you to be watered there, should you lack some comforts of your home Earth. Other then that… I'm just moving through the lot of you whose begun training here and making sure you're all settled in."
"I will consider it, the nearest village… Ah yeah, that way. Nail, when are you going to join me for training, hiding your strength aside. I could show you the transformation should you impress me enough." Nail chuckled, the two landing on the small island directly underneath them.
"We've only used two of the wishes, so the elder Moori also wanted to offer it to you all should you need to make use of it. Come brother, our water will quench your thirst so make sure to help yourself."
"I'm fine now. Also, keep the spare wish to your people, we've no need for much and should the others need supplies, Raditz at least came with his Capsule. The dragons… they eat like they do, Kron made sure they were well equipped. I surmise will be for another month, perhaps two or more."
"And we're grateful for your presence here. Will be easier with using the 'Instant Transmission' technique now, that we're much closer to Earth and vice versa. Ah yeah… well Piccolo, when did you want to resume your training." Piccolo regarded him for a moment, replying after a few seconds.
"I'll meditate for an hour. Then will spar, Nail." the Namekian smirked once again, regarding Piccolo with a hint of challenge.
"Looking forward to it."
(????-POV)
"Trunks, Demigra has most certainly left this timeline, we've tracked him to the past, another time scroll. I'll recall you soon, for the moment I want you and your partner to learn about that timeline." she listened in, Trunks standing nearby with his ring emitting the imagine of the Supreme Kai of time, Chronoa flickering in the image.
"Yeah… they are similar or those I know are similar to those of the timelines we frequent through. Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Gohan… the others, Tien… Chiaotzu, Krillin… Eighteen. Eh, even Yamcha seemed familiar. Though in some ways, they are much more different than the other counterparts of them. I even spotted the version of me there, different father… same mother." Chronoa responded.
"Until I track down the exact position in time, you have time to remain there, study this timeline and those there who are obvious to us, that their… positions there are seen clearly as direct changes which have since shaped this timeline. The scroll you mentioned Trunks, about the sealed timeline directly connected to that one you and your partner are within, the creature inside that timeline has been most disgraceful! If you're sure it can be dealt with, I can return the scroll to that particular set… and no longer need to make sure the little parasite inside can affect another timeline." Trunks nodded at their bosses words, she did so as well, silently.
"I believe this Kron could be another piece that made this timeline possible. Not all the conclusions can be made Chronoa but we will be figuring it out, while patrol this time..."
