Trunks' power dropped down to normal as he fell to his knees, panting heavily. He looked up, seeing what appeared to be a meteor shower, as Broly's remains burned up in the earth's atmosphere.

He'd done it. He'd defeated the legendary Super Saiyan. Against all odds, the earth was safe again. Although he never would have been able to do it without 18's help.

His eyes widened. 18! Where was she? She hadn't still been inside Broly when he had…

"Oh God… 18! Where are you? 18!"

"Stop screaming."

He turned in the direction of the voice. A person covered from head to foot in Broly's blood stood up from the river of green that had poured from the legendary saiyan's wound. Wiping the blood from her face, she looked down at herself in disgust.

"Gross." She powered up, and her energy flung the blood off her. "I'm not doing that again."

Trunks breathed a sigh of relief. "You had me worried. I was afraid you may have been…"

Raising an eyebrow, 18 gave him a smile. "Trunks, dear, are you admitting that you were worried about my well being?"

Trunks looked away, a blush staining his cheeks.

Up in the sky, Shenron looked down at the two of them irritably. This had been his worst summoning to date. "Um, excuse me, but are you going to make a wish, or not? You better after the way you summoned me!"

Just now noticing Shenron, 18 looked up at him with wide eyes. "Holy… now that's a dragon."

"You try my patience!" Shenron growled. "Make your wishes!"

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Trunks looked up at Shenron. "Yes, sir. And thank you for helping us defeat Broly."

Shenron sweat-dropped. He hadn't really done anything. He'd simply appeared in the saiyan's stomach. "If… you say so… Now speak! Tell me why you have summoned me!"

Trunks nodded. "Yes, could you please return the earth to the way it was before the Big Gete Star came?"

"It shall be done!" Shenron declared, his eyes flashing brightly.

Light engulfed the land, blinding them all. As if someone had hit the rewind button on reality itself, all the damage done to the planet reversed until it was exactly the same as it had been before.

"You're wish has been granted!" Shenron told them. "Now tell me your second wish!"

18 glanced at Trunks. "Mind if I take this one?"

Trunks motioned towards the Eternal Dragon. "By all means."

"Thanks." She looked up at Shenron, feeling rather intimidated by the giant dragon. "Please restore all the lives of those killed by Broly and Cooler."

"Excluding Cooler." Trunks added, remembering that he too had been one of Broly's victims.

"Yes," 18 agreed, "except him."

"Very well!" The dragon's eyes flashed once again, and the feeling of life being renewed swept through the city. "You're wish has been granted! Now I must go!"

Just like Porunga, Shenron was surrounded by beams of light until he was no longer visible. The dragon vanished along with the light, and the mystical Dragon Balls floated up in the air. They hovered around for a few seconds before shooting in different directions, scattering across the planet.

They returned to Capsule Corp. Whatever damage the place may have taken had been repaired from the wish they had made. But the thing that Shenron hadn't fixed was Bulma's temper, and she was furious.
