Disclaimer: I own nothing belonging to Akira Toriyama or Toei Animation, though at least Toriyama has more involvement in Dragon Ball Super than in Dragon Ball GT (which was little to no involvement aside from minor work). Sometimes I wish he did own Dragon Ball GT because he would have done a better job with it than Toei did in my opinion.

Something Worth Fighting For

Time Travel Issues, Tapion and Hoi!

By EmperorDraco7

"The Supreme Kai of Time?" asked Gohan, he and the others were rather shocked to learn that aside from Shin and Old Kai, there was another Supreme Kai that the evil Buu never killed. Yet, the expression on Chronoa's face proved to be a sign that she didn't come to the Earth for idle chat, given the circumstances for her arrival. "Are you sure about this?"

"I wish I could say otherwise, but even I'm surprised that there's one other surviving Supreme Kai besides Old Kai and me," answered Shin as he was still currently at a loss of words right now, feeling it would hinder the training Goten and Gohan were going to have inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for a while. "There are things that you need to know, it involved time traveling."

"Oh?" wondered Videl, blinking a bit as she was still new to the whole concept of time travel as were Sharpnel and Erasa because of just joining the Z-Fighters in doing their part to save their timeline from meeting the same fate Pan's did. "What exactly do you mean, Shin?"

"He means that traveling through time isn't without its share of risks," came Shamano's voice, getting everyone's attention as the male Trimonight seemed rather intrigued to see someone like Chronoa present right before their very eyes. "I'm sure you know what I mean, don't you?"

The Supreme Kai of Time slowly nodded her head; having never expected to see Shamano on the Earth and the fact she explained to Shin and Old Kai about why she was here made her suspect his appearance must had been due to the change in history. "Well yeah, besides I saw that a distortion in history had taken place and I traced it to this period in time," she said with a stern expression on her face and Tokitoki landing on the ground next to her. "Just when I thought one distortion from someone traveling through time wasn't bad enough."

"What are you talking about?" began Krillin, he too was starting to get confused with the whole time traveling having negative repercussions thing and the others knew how he felt since it's still new for them to find out that there were different timelines in general.

"I'm saying that because of Trunks going back to the past using a time machine to prevent his timeline from happening, one of two major distortions took place and new timeline's were created such as your timeline for example," said Chronoa, though she was partly to blame for all of this as much as she wanted to erase them, she chose not to since things could've turned out much worse at the time… that was until Pan traveling to the past. "As for the second distortion, you can thank Pan for that…."

"Huh?" both Gohan and Videl were completely shocked at hearing Pan created some kind of distortion to history by traveling to the past and warning the Z-Fighters about the Tuffle Parasite Baby, in fact the two as well as everyone else were at a loss of words over how Future Trunks caused the original distortion that created their timeline in the first place. It didn't take long before the raven-haired female teen spoke up. "You're saying that our future daughter caused that… by using the Time Machine?"

"Sadly yes, you see my job involves the creation of Scrolls of Eternity, or more commonly known as Time Scrolls, to record history as time marches and I can erase certain changes in time if I feel the need to do so…" Chronoa went on, making the Z-Fighters and their friends and family worried as it seemed she might erase the changes that were made in order to undo the distortions she mentioned.

"Aren't you going a bit far, Chronoa?" Shamano decided to ask her, feeling it wouldn't be right to erase the changes that led to the timeline they know, yes Future Trunks ' initial use of the Time Machine created by his mother Future Bulma did lead to Cell coming to the past and absorbing Androids 17 and 18 when they were alive, which in turn caused the events of the Cell Games, the conflicts with the Big Gete Star on New Namek, the confrontation with Paragus and Broly on New Vegeta, Bojack's freedom from his Stellar Lockdown, Broly attacking Earth before the 25th World Tournament and the events regarding Majin Buu but all and all, everything more or less worked out for the best. "Besides, it's not like Future Trunks and his mother knew something like this was going to happen when they first made the Time Machine."

At the same time, Xeno came home after being dropped off by Tempest, smiling all the way. "And where have you been, young lady?" A female voice asked which caused the red-haired girl to be somewhat surprised at hearing it.

"I went out with a friend, mother." Xeno said, turning to the source of the voice.

Xeno's mother, Xenshi frowned at this, seeing a blush on Xeno's face, coupled with a smile… but this was no fake smile… this was a genuine smile, something she had never seen after her late former husband's political ideas began to take over the household."Is it the same friend whom you've told was helping you with some self-defense techniques?" She asked.

"That he is." Xeno replied as she put her coat away and went to get something to drink.

"Are you alright, Xeno? You feel like you've had a weight lifted from your shoulders." Xenshi asked, approaching her.

"That I have," Xeno said, "I have talked with him about what has happened so far. What surprised me is that he actually listened to understand my side of the story…"

"You trust him enough for that?" Xenshi asked.

"More than that, mom… I think… I think I'm in love." Xeno said with a smile, while Xenshi blinked at the sudden information.

At the same time, Tempest found himself heading back to his apartment, a smile on his face as he thought back on what happened.

'Man, I can't believe that we actually kissed… besides, she is quite a beautiful woman…' he thought to himself as he moved along, a slight blush appearing on his face as he remembered the kiss. Coupled with the time he had associated with her so far made him realize that Xeno was now a close friend of his… but he couldn't get that kiss out of his mind… just thinking about that alone made his heart skip a beat… was he beginning to like her more than just a friend to him? Sure, he's familiarized himself with her and has been great friends with her for several months now, but now she has touched his heart in a way he couldn't ignore… the memory of that sudden kiss was making him blush once more…

"A bit too far?" asked Chronoa, somewhat annoyed with Shamano even asking that of her and especially as there were things that needed to be discussed right now that the Z-Fighters needed to become well aware of. "I'm just here to rectify a distortion before it gets out of hand."

Shamano stayed silent, more so as this was not the time to be arguing when they needed to deal with another issue. "Can't this wait? I mean, look at it this way… would you want to make everything the others have been preparing for a lot less meaningful if not outright meaningless?" he asked her, wanting to make the Supreme Kai of Time think it over before she did anything too crazy. "I mean, from what I heard… you at one point considered doing the same when Future Trunks tried to prevent his timeline from happening."

"Don't bring that up, besides he did cause Cell to steal his alternate timeline counterpart's time machine and go back to the past when the Androids were still alive so he could absorb them and obtain his perfect form. Hence, the first distortion that came to be."

"Yes and it changed things for the better too I might add," added Shamano, although there were some bad things that came out of it and even then everything worked well in the end. "And from what I could tell, what Baby did in Pan's timeline is far worse than anything the Androids ever did. Plus had Bulma not risked her life to save Videl, then maybe everything would have turned out similar to her timeline if not exactly the same."

"He's right…" came Videl's voice as she and Gohan decided to have a few things to tell Chronoa themselves, even more so as Bulma having sacrificed her own life to save the raven-haired female's was for the best after hearing what transpired in the timeline that the Pan and Bulla originated from. "Not only this but last we checked, our alternate selves from Pan's timeline were much weaker than we are and that was from the lack of training over the years leading to what happened."

"Yeah, and?" Chronoa's arms were crossed at Gohan and Videl since the two wanted to protest with her and the fact she wanted to undo the changes made to this era. "Your boyfriend and the others trained for the Androids but that wasn't enough to beat them and then Cell came into the picture, leading to the events that transpired as a result. So what makes you think it wouldn't be the same case when Baby comes to Earth."

"We're going to be better prepared not just physically but mentally as well," added Gohan, remembering that Baby could possess the bodies of his victims at the sign of any injury inflicted and being capable of laying eggs inside them too, something they'll have to be ready for. "I mean with Garlic Jr's Black Water Mist, Piccolo, Krillin, Icarus, Yajirobe, Korin, Kami, Mr. Popo and I, were lucky enough not to be infected while dad and Vegeta were in space at the time."

"But Baby's eggs aren't like Garlic Jr's Black Water Mist…" reminded Chronoa, her expression slowly starting to darken as she argued with the two in front of her and Shamano sighed because it was getting them nowhere fast, plus it wasn't a good idea to anger the Supreme Kai of Time in any circumstance whether good or bad.

"That's why I paid Pan's timeline a visit by myself… to at least acquire one of Baby's eggs for the worst case scenario," he interrupted, revealing that he still had the specimen back onboard his spaceship and how despite losing one of his arms in order to acquire it, this made his trip all the more worth it in an effort to help the Z-Fighters. "Yes, I know what you're going to say but I have my reasons…"

"Also need I remind you that my own future daughter died because of that bastard, not just Gohan and Videl's own child?" Vegeta was the next to speak up, the scowl on his face meant that he wasn't in the mood for the Supreme Kai of Time's intentions when there was still training to be done. "And to make matters worse, that parasite used me as his permanent host and that's something I will not allow to happen once I'm done with him!"

"Sorry Chronoa but they have made up their minds after all and you know how humans and Saiyans can be, plus even I can't let you do this either I know how the Tuffles are, and cause I'm here means Baby will want my ship to go to other worlds best you just let them remember." Shamano said with his arms crossed over his chest.

Videl nodded as she stepped forward looking at the Kai known as Chronoa with a frown on her face she was not going to let her mind be whipped and then forget her daughter, Videl was going to make sure her future daughter that she would one day have would not have to go through that pain of her future counterpart.

Gohan saw the look that Videl had in her eyes as well and he knew that she was not going to let this all be undone for nothing as he looked at the female Kai and a part of him wanted to yell at her for what she was going to do.

Vegeta on the other hand looked over at Gohan and he knew that he was not going to stand for this just like he wasn't going to either as he too now looked over to Chronoa with a bigger frown on his face. "He's right and something tells me even if you did he would just tell us again and again." Vegeta said with a frown as he looked over to where Shamano was standing.

Chronoa just looked at the last Trimonight who simple shrugged his shoulders at this as she knew that she was going to need to talk to him as well about this.

However, Videl stopped the Kai as she began to talk once more looking at the Kai before her. "Nothing you say will make us change our minds and my own daughter died in my arms, I…" she began as she stopped with tears threatening to come down her face as she remembered her dream. "I have nightmares of her dying, what it must have been like for her trying to save us as we just spit in her face!"

The others looked at her as she said this knowing that this would not be the first and knew Videl was hating this as she looked up at the Kai, and Videl right now wished that Gohan was here but he was busy training Goten so they could be ready for Baby.

Bulma nodded at Videl as she didn't want her future daughter to die either as she looked at Chronoa knowing that what Pan and Future Trunks did was bad but it saved them and so many lives as well. "Look we know that this is bad but look at what could happen all of us as slaves and who is to say Baby will not stop there?"

"Do you really and honestly think we should all simply let things run its course and happen again? I don't think so…" Piccolo then said his now arms crossed as he looked at the Kai with a frown on his face. "I understand you want to prevent people messing with time and all, but extreme measures have to be taken if we are to save the things dearest to us. If you were so adamant on preventing people from messing with time, it would be better to cut the roots of the problem, in this case being the parasite known as Baby, before it can grow and throw the entire universe into chaos. After all, there are fates worse than death."

Chronoa remained silent as she looked at the Namekian, who continued. "Besides, say that by some chance someone does find a counter for the parasite and the victims are freed… don't you think that they would retain the memories of whatever they have done while being possessed? Sure, the real culprit would be the one whom possessed them and by all means will be held accountable, but the fact that they were actually doing it would hurt even more. I know for certain that, if they would be freed from Baby's control, both Gohan and Videl in Pan's original timeline would be utterly devastated if they would find out what has happened to their daughter, even more so when they learn what they had even done to her while being possessed. That by itself will most definitely because a level of guilt so severe it would be incredibly hard to even recover from."

"How can you know all of this?" Chronoa asked.

"I've known Gohan when he was only a toddler and he tends to get VERY upset if something bad happens to the ones he holds dear. He wanted to tear that brute Spopovich's head off for what he had done to Videl back at that tournament and as I saw him and Videl tending to their dying child, I could feel that Gohan wanted to hunt the perpetrator down and utterly destroy him and Videl was wanting the very same thing, even though she was more devastated by what her counterpart has done as Pan told us everything." Piccolo said.

Videl on her turn felt touched that Gohan actually wanted to maul Spopovich for torturing her back in the tournament, which in turn made her blush slightly. If it were up to her, she would have let Spopovich have it, if it weren't for all the other events that had transpired afterwards… She in turn wanted to stop Spopovich and Yamu herself for draining Gohan's energy thereafter or slap Shin for not giving Gohan a chance to defend himself, no matter if they were only after his energy instead of his life… it made her realize how much she and Gohan cared about each other and they truly are in love with each other…

"But what is also important to know is WHY we can't bring Pan and Bulla back; Future Trunks was killed by Cell during the Cell Games and was revived just fine without any repercussions that came with it. So why is the case of Pan and Bulla so different that they can't be brought back since they didn't die from a natural cause? Or we could have let them get healed by Dende to some degree." Piccolo then asked, which made Videl shudder at the thought of that as well something that didn't come to her mind.

Chronoa on the other hand was at a loss for words. She felt rather conflicted at this point. Sure she felt that the cause of the Z-Fighters was benevolent in regards to them wanting to give their loved ones a chance at a better future, so she had to admit that Piccolo was right on that regard, but she also knew that messing with the timeline could create anomalies and alternate timelines, which wouldn't make a difference to the original timeline in the slightest.

"Now that I think of it, when Buu healed Pan… it didn't stop her from dying either," added Videl as she still didn't understand how despite his healing powers, Buu wasn't able to prevent Pan's death from happening when he healed Bee and Mr. Satan when they were injured prior to Evil Buu and eventually Super Buu coming into the picture thanks to Zant and Smitty making things worse. "I mean, none of this makes any sense at all things considered and..."

Soon enough, she got a message on the communicator and she gave a small sigh as this couldn't have happened at a worse possible time. "Huh? Yes, I'm a bit busy right now and it may have to wait," she spoke, having a feeling that it might be some kind of crime taking place and both she and Gohan were needed as the Great-Saiyamen in order to clean up the mess. "What do you mean it can't? What do you mean that the lower half of some kind of monster is attacking the city at this very moment?"

"What?"

Gohan was just as shocked as Videl was, especially as a monster attacking the city though what caught them by surprise was the fact that it was just the lower half… normally it wouldn't be possible since a monster was nothing if this was the case. "Fine, we'll be there right away!" said Videl before ending communication and turning her attention towards Chronoa. "Sorry but Gohan and I need to deal with whatever this thing is attacking the city, we'll finish this later."

"Don't worry, I have plenty of time to spare," responded Chronoa as Tokitoki landed next to her and she patted his head, though she hoped that this wasn't the result of a distortion in the space time continuum since she had to admit she never expected to come to Earth to discuss matters with the Z-Fighters directly. "Just make sure you don't get yourselves killed okay?"

Gohan and Videl nodded as the raven-haired male Half-Saiyan used his Instant Transmission to get himself and the girl he loved to the city that was being attacked as soon as possible since there wouldn't be enough time to retrieve the Z-Sword beforehand. They prayed that they'll be able to save the people there and stop whatever was destroying the city before it could do any permanent damage.

The people in the city were screaming in fear as the lower half of an unknown monster was terrorizing their home. Earth's Army was currently doing their absolute best in trying to take the creature down but no matter how many bullets they've fired, they weren't doing any meaningful damage. The good news was Gohan and Videl, as their alter-egos Great-Saiyaman and Great-Saiyawoman, arrived at the scene and after seeing what was going on neither of them were at all pleased to see the destruction that had been caused. "What could have done this?" he wondered, feeling some anger at what's happening to the city and they had no idea on what they could be facing as they flew down towards the burning part of the city itself.

Their arrival didn't go unnoticed as one of the soldiers from Earth's army spotted the two Saiyamen coming to help them against that creature. "Captain, the Great- Saiyamen has just arrived at the scene." the helicopter reported to his superior, hopeful that they'll be able to help stop the creature from causing anymore damage to the Earth.

"Good, let them deal with this mess."

Upon arriving at the ground, Gohan and Videl saw that a Helicopter had already been destroyed and were praying that there weren't any human causalities along with the ones that the military had suffered as the Earth was just recovering from the conflicts with Majin Buu. Soon enough, they saw the lower half of the unknown creature and knew they needed to stop it. "Halt!" Gohan declared, wanting that thing to stop causing its rampage and the fact he had to hide his newly re-grown tail under his Great-Saiyaman outfit was for the best since he didn't want to succumb to being weakened should anyone grab it when he least expected. "You're under arrest!"

"You're kidding, right?" asked Videl, wanting to remind her boyfriend that they weren't dealing with criminals but rather something that had no upper half whatsoever. "This isn't a thief we've been called to stop you know, it's something I don't even know what it is…"

Gohan was currently at a loss of words, realization that what Videl heard about the creature having no upper half and yet was still causing destruction in the city was indeed true. Suddenly, a damaged building started to collapse on itself and a huge tremor that started tearing through the area that they were in came their way and they were forced to take to the skies to avoid being crushed, even more so Videl since she's a human being.

"What kind of creature is that?!" she asked him, still not believing that there was another threat to the Earth just when they were given time to prepare for the one their future daughter warned them about before dying in their arms though it didn't take long before something clicked into the back of her mind as she remembered what Hoi told them beforehand. "Gohan, look! The evil that destroyed planet… whatever… could this be what Hoi warned us about?"

She pointed to the giant creature that had no upper body; having a feeling it might be the creature that was mentioned to them and they needed to do something fast. "Alright, let's stop this freak show!" she declared to her fellow crime-fighter much to his shock.

"Wait, you mean…"

"You know the words," Videl interrupted, having a feeling that Gohan would want to fight it on his own and not wanting to see it becoming a repeat of when she fought Spopovich at the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament as the two of them were much stronger since then due to their training in the six months after Kid Buu's defeat. "Besides, I'll be fine this time."

Giving a stern expression on his face, Gohan knew that she was right though that didn't mean that they should take this thing lightly because they weren't sure if it was stronger than Majin Buu or not. "Okay, but in the worse case, you should help with evacuating everyone in the city." he recommended as they needed to make sure it didn't harm anyone else and may need to lure it to a different location so the fight wouldn't cause anymore damage.

With that, Gohan and Videl made their way back to the ground and confronted the creature, which would be a bit difficult to lure it out of the city since the lack of an upper body would keep it from seeing and hearing them but they needed to stop it somehow.

Yet Videl still had a bad feeling on all of this as she looked around as the creature out this lower half attacked them as Videl jumped away from the swing of its tail, which simple resulted in another building getting destroyed by the unknown creature.

"Videl we need to stop this thing." Gohan said with a frown on his face and the creature smashed the ground around him as Videl nodded at this knowing that they needed to think of something and quick as well.

Videl nodded as both she and Gohan jumped into the sky and looked at Gohan. "Let's try that combo move we've been working on Gohan." she said with a smile on her face and while it was still a working thing that they were still getting used to both she and Gohan knew that they had no option right now.

Gohan just nodded as he joined her and the two placed their hands together for a new attack that they had been working on together. "Eat this you monster, a daughter's justice!"

The blast headed towards the creature as he had little effect to it which made the two teens give a moan at this knowing that this was bad. "Damn I was hoping that would work." Gohan said with a frown and watched on trying to think on what he and Videl could do.

"Yeah but we'll stop this thing Gohan I know that we will." Videl said as she looked at Gohan with a smile on her face, and went on the attack once more as Gohan and Videl tried to do all that they could to find a weakness for this monster.

Soon both went on the attack but still they had no luck as the monster used its tail to try and attack Videl, while Gohan fired a Masenko at the creature which caused Gohan to see what happened when his attack had hit the monster. "Hey Videl this thing has a weakness! When it attacks its flesh is vulnerable." Gohan cried as Videl nodded as she watched Gohan attack the monster from the left and waited for the right moment.

Gohan began to punch and kick the creature's legs as he now knew how he could hurt it all he had to do was just wait for the right moments that he could hit it, and as soon as he saw the monster use its tail to try and attack Gohan went on the attacks. "Alright now's our chance Videl!" Gohan yelled towards where she was as the two gave it all they had to stop this monster as it fell down onto the ground destroying another building.

"We need to make sure that this is over Gohan!" Videl said as she and Gohan knew that this not even close to being over.

They were about to attack again when they heard some music start to play as both looked around to see where it was coming from.

Gohan however noticed the creature that they had been trying to fight just vanished from sight which made him frown at this and Videl noticed this as well as she took of her helmet. "Something tells me that this is not over yet Videl."

Videl simple nodded at this and then looked to Gohan. "I think we better head back to try and work this and and maybe tell the others what is going on as well." Videl said knowing that another threat was here on Earth.

Gohan looked at Videl as he knew that she was right and looked at where the monster had been as he soon thought that he saw someone within the smoke but he just shook his head at this and looked at Videl. "Good idea Videl." Gohan said with a smile as the two took off into the sky and back to Bulma's house to tell her what they had seen.

Climbing up from underneath some rubble, Tempest got up as he stretched his back, having seen the monster's attack in the city.

"Dang, what in the name of the Martian Elder was that?! What was that creature attacking the city?! Something is quite fishy out here…" He said, wincing as he felt his arms and legs, "Oh drat. That's going to leave a mark or two…"

Tempest shook his head and brushed his outfit off, before looking to the direction of where the attack had taken place.

"Something's fishy, I know it. This definitely isn't like some kind of monster movie, this was real… I'm having a bad feeling about this… I should probably head back to my apartment…" He said.

At the same time, Xeno was watching the news as there were reports about the sudden attack, with many ambulances moving in to secure and treat the wounded. Xeno in particular was nervous as the attack took place in the area her boyfriend had been in just now, so she hoped that he was okay.

Her mother Xenshi was watching her eldest daughter with a frown, obviously suspecting that something was up that was catching her attention…

It wasn't long before both the superhero couple had arrived back to Bulma's as the others all looked at the couple with Bulma feeling a little worried having seen the news on what had happened. "We all saw it on the news what the hell was that thing?" Bulma asked with a frown on her face as knew that this must be the danger that they had been told about, and just when the others had all gone home to Train or rest for the night.

Videl simply nodded at this looking at Bulma. "The only thing was it was missing the top half which is strange." Videl said as she took of her helmet that she had been wearing and gave a deep sigh at this knowing it was hard to fight that thing. "It was hard to even hit the damn thing."

Hearing this Goku was a little worried as well but knew that there was not a lot they could do. "Well this could be what Hoi was talking about." Goku said as Videl gave a light scoff at this knowing something still didn't feel right.

Hoi just gave a laugh at this and nodded. "It is this shall only be the beginning of all this." He said with a smile that none noticed as the others were all too worried about what this could mean.

"Well we did find something about it while me and Videl were fighting it." Gohan said sitting down, but he too was wrorried mainly that it was only half of the creature, he couldn't help but wonder where the top half it was.

Videl nodded as she plaved a hand on Gohan's shoulder and gave a smile. "Yeah we kicked its ass plus with all of us and the training we've been doing I feel that this thing will not stand a chance."

Hoi just looked at the human with anger but knew that he couldn't show it all everything would become undone that he had been working so hard for. "Foolish girl I shall make sure she shall be the first to suffer."

"Hey what's going on?" A voice called out that Videl knew and gave a smile too at who it was.

Looking to where the voice was Videl saw it was her father and Mr Buu, which would make things easy as Buu had been doing some training as well. "Hey dad, Mr Buu." She said as she as she went over to hug her father.

Hercule just gave a smile as he too had seen the news and knew that this was bad. "Does anyone know what that thing was then?" he asked as he looked at the Z Fighters that were here at the moment.

All anyone do was shake their head at this as they had little to no information right now on the thing which made them all worried as they had no idea when it would attack again. "Sadly no, but I know that we'll beat this thing." Videl with a frown but smile all the same.

Gohan nodded at his girlfriend and he knew that she was right they had been training a lot since the beat and killed Kid Buu so this was something after all. Even Buu nodded at this as he too wanted to help out right now as well as Hoi was looking at the pink monster. "Buu help Buu help!" he cried out in a happy tone of voice as he looked at the other.

"So this is Majin Buu that they said destroyed the world before I arrived to this back water Planet full off stupid useless humans," Hoi thought looking at Buu and wondered just how something like this was such a danger to the whole Planet. "That thing doesn't look like it can do a thing its too fat to be a threat to me or the great Hirudegarn."

Videl and Gohan both gave a smile at this as Videl looked around and saw that the Supreme Kai of Time was missing as well as Shamano as well. "Wait, where's Shamano and the Kais?" Videl asked as she did think that they would still be here.

Bulma just looked at Videl and smiled at the young girl. "Well they are in the next room talking on just what they should be doing and trust me I have been hearing Shamano yell at her ever since you and Gohan left to deal with the monster that was attacking the city."

Chi-Chi nodded at this as she gave a frown and looked to where the room was as it seems that the yelling at stopped. "I heard that Old Kai yelling as well, man I will say this Shamano can be scary when he is angry, then again he did yell at us after all."

"What why…?" Videl asked as she looked at the two women wondering what had happened and knew this must have been while she was either away with Gohan or…

"It happened back when we we're dead," Bulma said with a frown as she knew from what King Kai after Shamano left to Help deal with Buu he had lost a lot. "He said that he wanted nothing to deal with helping us then again he was in a great deal of pain from losing something, like he had been crying." She said with a frown but knew that they just had to wait for the Kais to come out.

The next morning Bulma and Videl were washing the dishes talking to each other as both Videl and Bulma knew that Trunks had been going to see Tapion a lot and been bring him food as well, which both found sweet. "There's been twice as many dishes to wash since Trunks new friend arrived, I think he's sneaking him food." Bulma said as she looked at Videl with a smile.

Videl simple gave a smile at this as she looked at Bulma. "Is he I think that's sweet, he's a good kid."

Bulma nodded at this and gave a sigh. "Yeah Trunks has always envied Goten for having a brother, he gets lonely I think he likes having someone someone else around he can play with." Bulma said with a sad smile on her face as she looked out the window.

"Being an only child can be pretty rough I know what he is going through." Videl said as she soon let out a deep sigh. "And now that he knows he will have a sister one day…" Videl said looking out at the night sky and over to Bulma both having suffered knowing the fate of their daughters to be.

But they knew that there was not a lot that they could do right now all the only thing was to wait and hope that the egg Shamano brought back would at least help them out and percent them from becoming a Tuffle made both women feel sick at what they would become.

"Well I have been working on the sample that Shamano gave me," Bulma said with a sigh shaking her head as the little Tuffle egg was a pain in her ass. "So far not much, but I will keep working on it."

Videl just nodded at this but she still had a lot on her mind right now on what the monster that was attacking the city, however she was brought out from her thoughts as she heard someone grunting in anger and both she and Bulma thought that this was Vegeta.

Until the looked back to see it was Shamano sitting down and rubbing his head from stress. "Stupid Kai's…" he said as they both looked at him.

"I take it that the whole talking thing didn't go over all that well." Videl said with a frown on her face as she knew that the Supreme Kai of Time still wanted to talk to both her and Gohan which just caused Videl to frown even more.

"Well you could say that, trust me you'll find out when you talk to her," He said rubbing his head once again over the whole situation. "So what's been going on then as I have heard some of it and all I keep hearing is some topless monster attacked the city."

Videl just nodded as Gohan was with the others right now talking on what it was and coming up with a way to stop it should it show up again which they all knew it would, it was just a matter of time. "Yeah you could say that." Videl said with a sigh and at the damage the city had been in thanks to this thing.

The two women soon started to tell him what they knew and what information they had as well as the last thing they wanted was for anyone to die. "That's all we know right now, Gohan and the others are all trying to work what this thing is." Bulma said as she looked out into the night hoping that it wouldn't attack them again.

"It's just one thing after another," Videl said as she crossed her arms over her chest and then looked to Shamano as she hoped that he would have some answers that could help them out or at the very least provide them with information. "Do you know anything about a little man called Hoi?" Videl asked with a frown still not fully trusting him.

Unknown to the three Hoi was listen in on the three with a frown on his face as well and a look of anger as well over the black hair human female. "I mean you are a Trimonight after all and been alive for such a long time you might have heard something about him, I'm asking this since I don't trust him."

Bulma knew that Videl didn't trust him and looked at her. "Well I can look to this what the thing is I do have a vast library so I might have something, until then ask Tapion what he knows, he may be able to shed some light on just what is going on. As for this Hoi keep an eye on him."

Videl nodded at this and so did Bulma while Hoi took this chance to leave, knowing that this was the time to act before it was too late, and all his long time planning failed.

Meanwhile Trunks had arrived back to where Tapion was staying as the young half Saiyan and brought him some more food and saw a cat was instead eating the food that he had brought Tapion. "Hey you stupid cat that food is not for you go on get out of here!" Trunks cried out in distress over what he was seeing right now, as he tried to chase away the cat.

Tapion who had been playing his Ocarina looked over to Trunks as he saw the cat had run away, but what neither of them knew was that Hoi was looking down on them with a scowl on his face and listened to what they were saying. "Hey you don't have to stop playing because of me you sound great. I've heard you playing before, that's an ocarina right?" Trunks asked with a smile as he walked over towards Tapion who looked back at Trunks.

Tapion just looked out into the city and soon decided to walk back inside the old building that he had been staying in as Hoi jumped down from behind, while Tapion looked back at the masked Hoi as Trunks cried out.

Hoi at this very moment went rushing towards Tapion at high speed knocking the Ocarina that Tapion was holding as it went flying out of his hands and crashing to the ground away from him as Hoi looked over to where the Ocarina had landed as Trunks ran over to where it was and picked it up.

With a hidden scowl Hoi went rushing over to Trunks. "Give me that flute boy!" Hoi yelled out in anger and he tried and failed to attack Trunks, but the young half Saiyan kept dodging the attacks that Hoi as they knocked over the lamp that gave them light, which soon caused a fire.

"Trunks give it to me hurry!" Tapion cried as he saw Trunks land on some of the ruble close to him.

Trunks nodded at this ready to do what Tapion had asked him too, that was until Hoi cried out to Trunks to stop what he was doing. "Wait, hear me out," he said as Trunks looked over to where Hoi was and gave a frown at the short alien. "Tapion is not a hero! In fact it was he who destroyed the city!" Hoi cried out as he looked over and pointed to Tapion with a smirk on his face.

Hearing this, Trunks looked over to Tapion horrified by what he had just been told, however Tapion stood where he had been standing as he looked at Hoi with a frown on his face. "No Trunks, don't listen to him his lying to you."

"Once you hand him the flute he'll destroy not only your Planet but the whole universe!" he cried out as he looked over to Trunks and gave a sinister smile and soon out-stretched his arms. "Give it here, I'll save you." He said in a low and sinister voice and laughed lightly.

"He won't, he is evil." Tapion on said he eyes never leaving Hoi, while all Trunks could do was look back and forth from Tapion and Hoi not sure which one was true.

Trunks just looked down at the Ocarina that he was holding as he saw the evil smile that Hoi had on his face taking one last glance at the two and doing his best to judge on which one was right he gaze went over to Hoi who just smiled at this. "That's it I'm on your side after all boy and I will protect you dear child." Hoi said with an even larger smile on his face.

Looking at Hoi intensely Trunks raised his arm almost ready to throw the Ocarina over to Hoi while having a frown crossed over his face. "Tapion catch!" Trunks yelled over to him as it was then that Trunks jumped and threw the Ocarina over to Tapion who grabbed it with his right hand.

Hoi on the other hand gave a frown at this as he looked at what had happened and jumped on the steal beams as he ran off knowing that there was not a lot that he could do. "Tapion I think that we need to tell my mum and the others what happened." Trunks said with a frown, after all as much as he wanted to hang out with him they had more pressing matters right now.

Tapion looked at Trunks and knew that he was right as he looked in the direction that Hoi had run off in and knew that Trunks family and friends needed to be told about Hoi and his people and the danger that would happen if Hirudegarn was to become free.

Once both Trunks and Tapion arrived back to Capsule Corp so they could talk about just what had happened and knew that this was something that had to be told, right now Tapion was with Trunks in his room as Trunks was showing off all the toys that he had.

Bulma and the others however were all talking about what Trunks had told them and what Gohan had seen as well. "I'm really starting to wonder what Hoi is planning." Videl said with a frown on her face hearing what Trunks had said to him and the lie that Hoi had tried on Trunks.

Bulma nodded at this as she knew this was not good as she was wondering what was going on as well and was thankful that Tapion had been there to help him. "We just need to wait for Tapion, Videl and see what he says on the matter."

Videl looked at Bulma and smiled as she offered her a cake. "Thanks Bulma." Videl said with a smile on her face.

In Trunks room, the young half Saiyan was getting ready for bed yet he had one thing on his mind right now and looked over to Tapion. "Hey Tapion do you have any siblings?" he asked with a look of sadness on his face as he thought of his future sister and that fate that would happen to her.

Tapion looked over to Trunks and nodded at this. "Yes I do I have a younger brother in fact named Minotia." Tapion said with a frown not knowing what the fate of his brother was right now.

Trunks just gave a simple smile at this. "Cool so what's he like then?" Trunks asked as he gave a light smile towards his new friend.

"He was a good kid and had a good heart." Tapion told Trunks who had a frown on his face as the young Saiyan looked at Tapion. "What about you Trunks?"

Trunks gave a frown at hearing this as he looked outside and soon tightened his fists in anger, and this didn't go unnoticed by Tapion at all as he was now getting worried for Trunks and he was about to call out his name. "I did have a sister well sort of it's hard to explain really." He said with a continued frown on his face.

Tapion on just looked at Trunks when he said this and knew that there was more than Trunks was saying and it just caused Tapion to wonder what Trunks meant. "What do you mean?" he asked as she looked at Trunks seeing his head looking down.

Trunks looked up to Tapion as the young Saiyan soon started to tell Tapion everything that had happened and the future that Bulla and Pan had come from and what the two had told them that shall happen in their own time-lines.

He told Tapion on the evil Tuffle that was known as Baby and what he had done to Pan and his own sister saying that both girls were now dead thanks to Baby, which just caused Trunks to feel more anger over what the evil Tuffle did and the pain that both Pan and Bulla must have been in, after all they had both suffered in their own ways after all.

Pan had to suffer in not being able to save her parents from the monster, and from the look that her body had been in she had been bad tortured by Baby, while Bulla was not only most likely trapped within her own mind but also later killed when she was freed from Baby.

Hearing all of this and what had happened just caused Tapion to frown at this and the name of the race that Trunks had mentioned as well. "That's why we are all training as hard as we can to stop that Tuffle monster from making us his slaves and so that neither Pan nor Bulla will have to suffer the way that they did."

Tapion on nodded at this and can understand why Trunks and the others wanted to do this after all, after all he still remembered what he and his brother did to save their people from total destruction.

"It's also to save everyone else from becoming slaves to Baby as well," Trunks said as he began to think of the countless Planets that would fall under Baby control if they didn't stop him. "Tapion, what's your Planet like was it anything like Earth?"

Tapion just gave a smile on his face. "Well it's almost like Earth my home was in the south galaxy, a small Planet called Konats. Green lush forests and water so clear you can see the bottom of the deepest ocean, it was a beautiful world, before the nightmare Hirudegarn a phantom of mist and shadow," He said with a deep sigh and a frown on his face and began to bite his hand with anger. "What it found in peace it left in pieces." He was about to go on when he looked over to Trunks and saw that he was now fast asleep.

Tapion just gave a sigh as he left the room and noticed Bulma and Videl outside both who couldn't get much sleep. "Yeah I just can't sleep Bulma because of the nightmares I keep, oh hi Tapion." Videl said as the two saw him.

Tapion gave a frown at this as Bulma looked at him. "You know that you can stay here for the night, we do have plenty of room here after all, and I'm Trunks would love it as well." Bulma said with a smile on her face as she looked over at Tapion.

However all Tapion did was just gave a frown at this. "You should forget what Hoi told you, he's not to be trusted at all."

Videl nodded at this knowing she was right not to trust Hoi at this but she also knew that Tapion knew a lot more on what Hoi wanted. "I knew I had a bad feeling about him the moment I saw him, I think we all need to know more."

Bulma nodded at this as well as she looked from Videl to Tapion. "She's right why don't you tell us it would help us after all." Bulma added as the three made their way the livening room.

"You know if it's hard for you to talk about then you don't have to." Videl said as she looked at Tapion.

"No I'm fine, but to tell you my story I must first tell you about Hoi and his people first," Tapion said as he gave a deep frown. "Hoi is a member of a race known Kashvar a race who believed themselves to be the dominant species of the universe with all other life compared to them being scum and pathetic."

Videl just gave a frown at this and looked over to Bulma. "I knew that he was evil and not to be trusted, but please Tapion go on." Videl said as Tapion nodded at her. "I guess this means we need to stop him then before he tries to destroy the Earth or whatever it is that Hoi is planning to do." she thought as she now had a frown on her face at how to deal with Hoi.

Remaining silent for a brief moment, reflecting on how Trunks in some ways reminded him of his little brother then reluctantly he decided to tell the two females more about the story behind Hoi. "On Konats, they revived an evil long thought destroyed by my ancestors… Hirudegarn, a malevolent assassin that consumes its victims and imprisons their life force." he spoke, remembering at the very back of his mind how Hirudegarn was once a statute of a powerful Demon God that watched over the Planet Konats and purified people's hearts until one day the sorcerers of the Kashvar race used their dark and powerful magic to transform it until the powerful monster that ravaged his planet.

"Kinda like Cell whenever he absorbs someone in order to increase his own power." began Videl with a frown as she thought about what she, Sharpner and Erasa learned of Cell from the Z-Fighters and it made her cringe upon learning that though never would have guessed that Hirudegarn was capable of doing something similar to what Cell did. Even Bulma couldn't believe what she was hearing and didn't know what to say right now.

"Oh?"

She sighed, realizing that Tapion had no idea who Cell was but that was a story for another time. "I'll tell you later." she replied, then Bulma decided to talk after taking in everything that she and Videl had learned concerning Hoi let alone Hirudegarn.

"Still, I should've known Hoi was a villain," she spoke upon realizing that Videl was right in not trusting Hoi when he first came to Earth and got them to use the saved wish to open the music box that Tapion had been previously trapped in. "Those whiskers are a dead giveaway."

She placed her cup of tea onto the table as Tapion silently nodded his head. "Yeah, he murdered half our population." he said, continuing to reveal the truth about the red-skinned wizard and knowing that it was only a matter of time till Earth suffered the same fate as his planet unless they stopped Hoi before it's too late.

"Just when you think intolerance can't get any worse than it is," remarked Bulma with her arms crossed, they just came back to life following the defeat of Kid Buu and how they were getting ready for an even bigger threat that they've just been warned about but now there's another problem that needed to be resolved and soon then turned to glance at Tapion. "So, how did your world handle such an incredible threat?"

"It wasn't until we stumbled upon an enchanted sword that we realized we even had a chance" he spoke, though Bulma and Videl noticed that the sword he had in his possession was indeed the one he previously mentioned.

"Wait a minute, that's the sword you used on Hoi when you were released from that music box," said Videl, almost immediately recognizing the sword that Tapion wielded the first time he took notice towards Hoi and had a feeling it wasn't a coincidence when he brought up the weapon itself. "Could that be the enchanted blade you were talking about?"

"Yes," he replied back to the raven-haired girl, picking up the scabbard that contained the enchanted sword and showed it to the two females in the room while remembering the confrontation he and his younger brother had against the monster Hirudegarn. "A wizard found it along with two ocarinas; my brother and I used the ocarinas in hopes of distracting the beast."

Memories of him and his younger brother playing their respective ocarinas in front of Hirudegarn flashed before his eyes as he remembered how Hirudegarn was eventually defeated in the end. "They must have been enchanted as well for neither one of us knew how to play" he started to speak again, his thoughts were on how Hirudegarn was in pain when the ocarinas were being played and it caused it to attack them though they evaded a strike from the creature's left hand. "The melody seemed to consume Hirudegarn with rage but try as it might, the beast could do us no harm."

As he remembered, he thought about how the Konatsian Wizard appeared before the monster, armed with the enchanted blade that he previous told Videl and Bulma about and how the wizard used it to ultimately deliver what seemed to be the final blow. "At that moment, the wizard took up the sword and charged. The monster barely had to react before the blade… cleaved him in two." he explained as he recalled witnessing the wizard slicing Hirudegarn right in half after he saw the perfect opportunity to strike.

"What should have ended there, turned out to be only the beginning. Hirudegarn survived." he was pretty reluctant to reveal what happened next but knew there was no other alternative as the monster despite having been cleaved in two halves by the sword was still alive and the upper half roared, ready to attack again when a spell was cast on it which caused the two halves to dissipate into complete nothingness. "To prevent it from becoming whole again, the wizard confined its upper half inside me and the lower inside my brother... A small price for victory."

"My people survived the onslaught, and Minotia and I became heroes." he concluded, feeling that the two female humans now knew the whole story about Hoi and Hirudegarn, including the legend behind himself and his brother.

"That doesn't explain how you ended up in a music box."

That was something Bulma had been wondering, even Videl needed some clarification though she had a feeling that the thing that she and Gohan faced off against before must've been the lower half of Hirudegarn and the music that caused it to disappear may indeed be the music from one of the two enchanted ocarinas previously mentioned. "We had no choice, the only way to ensure that the Kashvar wouldn't be able to get their hands on us," Tapion spoke again, having hated the idea of being separated from his little brother though it was for the best to prevent Hirudegarn from becoming whole again or at least they originally thought it was. "We thought…"

This time Tapion began to remember the day he and Minotia were sealed away within the music boxes by the wizard as much as both hated to go through with it though knew they might be reunited with each other one day. "The wizard agreed to conduct the procedure but vowed to release us once the Kashvar had been brought to justice. We both knew better but were proud to serve" he had no idea that it would be the very last time he would ever see his younger brother before the two music boxes were launched into the depths of space. "As a final percussion ordered by our war council, the boxes were sealed and sent to the opposite ends of the farthest galaxies. That was the last time I saw my brother or my home."

"Now here I am, a thousand years later and nothing's changed," he finished, having hoped that every last one of the Kashvar would have been brought to justice by then but with Hoi on the Earth causing problems then it could mean trouble unless they stopped him soon. "Still a prisoner inside looking in."

"Oh my god… that's terrible," began Videl, having a feeling that Hoi must've somehow managed to open the music box containing Minotia and killed him before heading for Earth with the lower half of Hirudegarn at tow which made her despise Hoi even more than ever before now that she knew the whole story behind that bastard. "I'm sorry."

"What about your brother?" Bulma asked, hoping to hear some good news regarding Minotia though Tapion shook his head as even he wasn't aware of what became of his younger brother.

"Hoi must've killed him…" Videl answered for Tapion, knowing it would devastate him at hearing the news regarding the younger hero but it needed to be said as much as it pained her to tell him. "How else would Hirudegarn's lower half be causing destruction on our planet and your brother isn't there to stop it from happening? Then again, how did Hoi even manage to open the other music box if he needed our help to open the one he had in his possession."

As expected, Tapion's expression began to darken upon hearing of his brother's demise and the lower half of Hirudegarn being free to look for its missing half which made both females even more worried than ever but knew what it was like to lose a member of their respective families. "I think the real question right now is how are we going to stop Hoi and keep him from making Hirudegarn whole?" said Bulma, her arms still crossed ever since learning of the red-skinned man's true colors from Tapion. "Still, he won't get away with this."

"Well so long as I stay awake, he can't free the upper half," Tapion replied, still holding onto the enchanted sword this entire time and hoped that nothing would cause Hirudegarn's upper half to leave his very body. "I never thought I'd say this but I miss that music box."

"Wait" began Bulma, becoming surprised along with Videl at hearing that Tapion never got any form of sleep ever since the wished the Z-Fighters previously saved was used to release him from inside the music box. "You haven't slept since it was destroyed?"

He shook his head silently; confirming that he couldn't take any chances at possibly allowing Hoi to reunite the two halves of Hirudegarn by falling asleep then Bulma got up and smiled. "Hey, I'll build you a new one," she spoke upon having an idea that came to mind which got his attention. "Better yet, I'll build you a whole bedroom. You can stretch your legs out without getting splinters."

"But the music box was specially designed."

"He's right Bulma." added Videl, knowing that it might not be that easy to replicate the one that they freed Tapion from since it involved magic and it would require learning how it was made in the first place due to the wizard having died a thousand years ago following both Tapion and Minotia being placed into each of the music boxes. "I'm not sure if Capsule Corp even has a means of creating a similar one, now that I think about it… even Shamano's ship might not be able to help since it may have some limits on that department."

"Well it's possible; the remains are in my lab right now so I can reproduce the same material." reassured Bulma with a confident smile forming on her face though Tapion was still skeptical about that idea but in a way, it may help with the situation at hand.

"That's fantastic," Tapion started to show some gratitude about the thought of Bulma being able to reproduce the material that the destroyed music box was made out of and even Videl started to smile since once they made the new music box to have Tapion rest in, they'll be able to deal with Hoi and the lower half without worrying about them acquiring the upper half. "I don't know what to say..."

"We'll call it even if you spend some time with Trunks." recommended the turquoise-haired woman with another smile on her face, glad to see her son getting along with the legendary hero and with both Gohan and Goten training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber together at this moment, it could help Trunks and Tapion at the very least get their minds off of having lost their respective siblings or in the case of Trunks' his future sibling.

Tapion simply nodded to Bulma at the idea. "Deal" he said, with Videl glad that this would be able to resolve at least one issue and hopefully they'll be better prepared to deal with the remaining one when the time came.

As this was going on Gohan was on the Supreme Kai World as they wanted to talk to him about something and with what was going on Earth right now they knew that this was not a safe place to be right now.

"Gohan we are glad that you could make it here with everything that is going on Earth right now," Kibito Kai said as he looked over to Gohan with a smile, and knew that Gohan and the others wouldn't like being here after all he knew who was buried here after all so it was best that he quickly got on with why Gohan was here. "Anyway Gohan we brought you here for a reason Gohan."

Gohan just looked at the fussed Kai as he wondered what it was that he wanted. "Really what is it Shin?" Gohan asked with wonder as he didn't see Old Kai around and wondered what he was doing. "I was about to head into the hyperbolic time chamber when you asked me to come here."

"Well you see with all that we know may come and with what we have heard is going on Earth right now I thought alone with my elder that you would need this." Shin said as he waved his hand as Gohan watched Old Kai bringing over a sword that Gohan knew all too well.

Gohan was shocked at what he was seeing right now as right before his eyes was the now fully fixed Z-Sword that he had used while training to beat Buu. "You guys fixed it?" Gohan asked shocked as he grabbed hold of the sword.

The two Kais simply nodded at this knowing it might be of great help to Gohan and his friends in any way possible with the danger that they could feel that is going on Earth right now. "Yes we have with the threat of Baby and what we had been told his body can do and the creature that is on Earth, we both thought that it could help you out."Shin said with a smile as he watched Gohan using the sword.

"Yeah we have no idea what it is, do you?" Gohan asked as he looked over at the two male Kais and had hope that they knew what was going on.

"Yes we do," Old Kai began with a frown on his face and looked down at the ground. "It's as Tapion is tell your friends right now it's a monster known as Hirudegarn, your girlfriend Videl was right in not trusting Hoi." Old Kai then went on to tell Gohan about all they knew about Hirudegarn and Hoi's people.

Shin nodded at this as he now looked over to Gohan with a frown of his own. "We would have come to tell you sooner but with have been dealing with a lot not only thanks to what Majin Buu has done but now that Hirudegarn is back and with Chronoa as well."

Gohan simply nodded at this and knew that they were both right and just hopped that he could get back in time before Hoi and Hirudegarn or the lower half deicide to attack, at least there was just the lower half to deal with. For as long as Tapion kept the upper half in check then they should be all safe as they worked on a way to deal with Hirudegarn's lower half.

Looking at the sword Gohan knew that it was only a matter of time thou before Hoi got what he wanted and Hirudegarn was fully back together once more, and Gohan knew that he had to be ready for that or who knows what would happen.

For he was not going to let Hoi kill all life on the Planet not while he and his family and friend were alive that is. "Its best that we also inform the others as well then, at least that way we can all be ready." Gohan said as he looked at Shin and Old Kai.

Back on Earth as morning had arrived on the Planet and Bulma had just finished making what Tapion needed so that he could get some rest and to stop Hirudegarn from getting free as well so she went outside to where Tapion was with Trunks and Mr. Buu's dog Bee. "I'm finished!" Bulma cried out to Tapion as she looked down to where Tapion was. "You can come and have a look if you want."

Tapion just looked at the machine that Bulma had made and gave the woman a smile as he looked it over while Bulma was talking. "This chamber generates the same frequency allowing you to get some sleep at least." Bulma said as she looked at Tapion with a smile as he walked into the room looking it over.

Tapion just gave a simple smile as he looked the room over before he looked over to where Bulma was standing. "Its perfect thank you so much Bulma." Tapion on said as he gave her a smile as looked around once more thankful that he was going to get some sleep for once.

"I just hope that this will be enough to stop Hoi," Videl said as she arrived and had a frown on her face as she and the others knew that Hoi would try to attack at any moment. "It's a good thing we have Buu on our side." Videl said with a smile on her face.

Buu nodded at this as before anyone could say anything else on what they should do Kibito Kai alone with Gohan had come back. "Well, so did they want Gohan?" Videl asked as she looked at her boyfriend with a smile.

With a smile Gohan soon showed Videl the sword that Shin had gave him and the others all looked at the sword with a smile, even Tapion was looking at the sword that Gohan had on him right now with awe as Gohan told Tapion about it. "I'm hoping that this would help with not only Baby but if this Hirudegarn becomes whole it may help, bets to think worst case if Hoi gets the other half free."

Tapion nodded and knew that Gohan was right to think ahead. "If he tries it the only other way to stop Hirudegarn from becoming whole once more is to kill me okay." He said as he looked at the faces of everyone in the room which he knew they didn't like at all, but they had little chose right now on this Hirudegarn was a threat after all one that had to be stopped.

Gohan nodded as well as he looked at Videl as she knew he would be going off to do some more training with Goten. "I guess I'll see you once you're done training with Goten and the sword then." Videl said as she gave a smile to Gohan as he nodded and just pulled Videl into a hug before kissing her lips ever so softly, which Videl happily returned. "See you soon Gohan."

To Be Continued…

A/Ns: Well here we are, about time I got not only more of this story done but also the rest of the Wrath of the Dragon events as I'm sure you guys were expecting to see Trunks and Tapion bonding with one another which was one of the most important moments in the entire movie. As much as I wanted to include the rest of the events, there's already so much stuff in the chapter that I'll have to include the conclusion next chapter but don't worry it'll all be worth it in the end… especially as I had a twist for the ending of the movie when I eventually get there.

Till next time!
