Warning, I'll be using a lot of the dialogue in this because it's from an English subtitled episode. Sorry.

CHAPTER SEVEN

"Hey, Trunks, can you tell me about this Goku guy?" I ask as the Time Machine finally stops juddering and rumbling. I lean against the cushion of the seat and look at my companion.

"Goku is...Gohan's father. I don't know him all that way because he died of a viral heart disease and wasn't able to fight the Androids. But from what've heard, Goku is a great person. Very kind-hearted but...he never finishes off his enemies thoroughly such as Freeza. Goku defeated Freeza. He's nothing against Super Saiyans, really. But he's back; half of his body is made of metal and other materials. His father, Cold, is with him too and he's much more powerful than his son. Not like he can stop a Super Saiyan anyway,"

"I see...does Goku know your dad?"

Trunks's face changes. "Yes. But he wasn't the friendliest to Goku. He was once a bad guy, after all. He was killed by the Artificial Humans in our time when I was a little boy and I can't really tell what his nature was. Mom said he's very arrogant and likes to be ahead of others. He very rarely shows his gentle side to anybody. However, she did say that he's an always one or two step behind Goku. Seems like it."

"I would like to meet them,"

"But we better keep a low profile in case we look fishy," Trunks says.

A silence cuts in after that and I find my eyes slowly shifting towards his sword, which was resting against the control board. "If you don't mind me asking, Trunks...where did you get that sword from?"

He blinks. "Oh, this?" He suddenly smiles. "Ever heard of Tapion, legendary hero of Planet Konats (From Wrath of The Dragon)?"

Tapion? Gatar says. As in one of the brave warriors that defeated Hirudegarn? I have heard of him and Minotia.

Huh?

"When I was nine, a strange little man came to us Z Fighters for help. Tapion was trapped in a mystical music box, to ensure the eternal imprisonment of Hirudegarn. When Hirudegarn was overcame, his top half went to Tapion and his little brother, who helped defeat Hirudegarn with their Hero's Flutes, got the bottom half. To keep the planet in safety, the two music boxes were dispatched to the distant parts of the universe. Tapion was sent to Earth. We didn't know of the true intentions of the little man named Hoi and when Tapion was released from the music box by making a wish to Shenron, a majestic dragon who appears at your command when you gather all seven dragon balls together, we unknowingly put Earth in huge danger. However, I was awestruck by Tapion's enigmatic character and I took a liking to him. He didn't really like me at first. I brought him food everyday and he never touched them. I kept on visiting him later on and one day, Hoi swung by and attempted to steal Tapion's ocarina and I managed to get it in my hands. I didn't know whom to trust with Hoi yelling to me that Tapion is the real enemy but I didn't believe him. Tapion was a good guy. After that, Tapion and I grew closer and closer. Our friendship was strong.

Mom created a new music box, only increased in size, for him to finally relax in but it didn't work. Hirudegarn was freed from Tapion's body. Tapion begged me to kill him with his own sword so that the Hirudegarn will perish along with him. I couldn't. Tapion was like a big brother I never had and even holding the sword above his head pained me. Nobody could stop Hirudegarn. I fused with Goten, my childhood friend and youngest son of Goku, and became Gotenks. We were able to destroy his first form but his second form was more powerful. Goku, who turned Super Saiyan 3, used a Dragon Fist to pierce through Hirudegarn's chest and it demolished the monster for good. Tapion used a Time Machine to travel back to his home planet, Konats but before that he gave me...this sword, the Brave sword, as a farewell gift..."
