Light Of Willpower [Future Trunks x OC]

57: A New Journey

After a short while, Trunks returned.

Niya smiled at him as she leaned over the edge of the Time Machine. "How'd it go?"

Trunks chuckled and jumped in next to her. "Without a problem," he sat down. He leaned back against the seat and closed his eyes, letting out a breath.

"Are you okay?" Niya sat in the seat beside him.

"Yeah," Trunks opened his eyes and sat up. "I'm just glad it's all over now. No more Androids."

Niya smiled and grabbed his hands. "Yeah. No more," she placed a hand against her cheek, leaning into it. "So, let's do this short visit so we can continue from this morning." She smiled rather innocently for referring to something not so.

Trunks chuckled and rubbed her cheek, "Alright. I've been dying to continue." He pulled his hands away and set course for the Past.

"It's so embarrassing how we keep being interrupted," Niya blushed.

Trunks' cheeks were a bit pink as he pressed some buttons. The Time Machine began to whir and lift into the air. "Maybe we should go somewhere more private," he suggested.

"Yeah," Niya agreed. "But where?" She wondered.

"Maybe," Trunks started, and then they flashed into the Past, "your old house?"

Niya was a bit surprised. "Well, okay. If it's still standing."

"It doesn't need to be," Trunks slightly smirked as the glass of the Time Machine lifted, and he jumped out.

Niya blushed bright. "Trunks! You're so crazy!" she told him, leaning over the edge.

"And yet, you still love me," Trunks crossed his arms with a smile. "Now, come on. Let's go say hi to Mom and everyone."

With her face still warm, Niya jumped down, and they capsuled the Time Machine.

Trunks held her hand. "For them, it's only been a few days since Cell was defeated," he explained.

"Oh, okay," Niya nodded. "That's pretty weird since it's been so long for us."

"I figured it would be best this way," Trunks replied. "So we wouldn't see ourselves too much."

"That's smart," Niya commented as they walked inside Capsule Corp. "But I think Little Me and my family are back on this Planet Ayata now." She seemed a bit saddened.

Trunks wrapped his arm around her shoulder and rubbed it. "What's important is that they're alive and safe."

"Yeah," Niya agreed a bit quietly. "You're right."

Trunks gave her a reassuring smile and kissed the side of her head. "Let's find Mom now."

Niya nodded, and they went to do so.

"Wow, I'm really happy for you guys!" the Past Bulma smiled at the couple. "The Androids are gone, Cell is gone, you guys are rebuilding cities -- everything is really looking up now!"

"Yeah. Everything is going great," Trunks smiled. Beside him, Niya smiled as well.

"You know what we should do?" Bulma stood from her seat. "I'll call everyone over so we can have a little get together party!" She reached for the phone and started dialing.

"Mom, really, you don't have to!" Trunks raised his hands.

"Yeah, that's not necessary! I'm sure everyone's busy!" Niya added.
