Chapter three
Gohan concentrated all his energy to be able to transform, he did not reach the super saiyan level but a white platinum aura surrounded his entire body when he transformed to show Mirai Trunks all his power, on the other hand, the man with the lilac hair was surprised by the Sudden transformation of his friend, there was no doubt that he was probably a little stronger now after returning to train with Piccolo to restore his ki, the last time he saw him transformed was in Super Saiyan level two in his final battle against Cell. He immediately left his trance shaking his head from side to side, he had not come to the chamber of time and spirit to distract himself, he had come to train and to defeat Black Gokū.
“Surprising. I must admit that you impressed me, Gohan” Mirai Trunks commented to see the transformation of his friend “however, I have also increased my power” the half-saiyan concentrated all his energy and from one moment to another, his hair changed from lavender to gold, a few golden and light blue bursts arose around him “this is my full power”
“Great! It seems that we are equal" Gohan said with determination, smiling at the time traveler "what if we put our levels of power on test, eh?"
“Uh...” Mirai Trunks blushed, seeing Gohan smiling at him that way reminded him of his sensei, Mirai Gohan, he could even swear that he had seen him smile and greet him with present Gohan, that only made his heart beat with more strength inside his chest, gods gods! If he did not calm down soon everything would get out of control.
“And what do you say, Trunks? Do we make an attempt or not?" Gohan asked, taking the time traveler out of his thoughts.
“What? y-yes, Gohan! let’s go! we have to do it.”
-----
Gohan wandered alone in the middle of the desert, the weather was very hot, the sun was strong and the breeze blowing there did not provide enough freshness. The traces of his boots were marked in the sand leaving a path that the breeze then covered with more sand, there were a few palm trees located in some dunes, the leaves were slightly rocked, the kid's face was slightly red from the heat and the strong sun rays, breathed raggedly and did not stop sweating.
“I'm so lonely...” Gohan thought aloud without stopping walking, his throat burned, he was very thirsty and all he thought was to find a place to drink water “it's so hot...!”
He walk a little more and suddenly stopped when he saw a beautiful oasis just a few meters away. Gohan approached a little more and could see a lavender haired teen was cooling in the water of the oasis; the younger half-saiyan was surprised and he could recognize that that person was Mirai Trunks! What was he doing there? He reacted when he heard him call him, apparently he wanted him to cool off with him in that oasis, he gathered his courage, gathered energy and began to run towards the oasis but as soon as he arrived, he collided with a glass dome that separated them.
“What? No no why? why?! This should not be happening” Gohan thought lightly hitting the glass dome, under the head, was about to mourn but he heard the voice of his best friend of the future calling him.
“Don't worry, you don’t have to cry” Mirai Trunks said from the other side of the dome supporting her hand with Gohan's “you can join me if you want... you just have to say a word”
A word? But what word he should have said to be with Trunks in that oasis? Gohan thought about looking for the word he should say but could not find it, suddenly he could see how Mirai Trunks moved his hand away from the glass of the dome and began to walk in the water away from him, desperate, Gohan began to hit the dome to Get your attention but it was not working.
"Please don’t go!" Gohan said, still knocking on the dome glass, but Mirai Trunks was not listening, just walking away more and more "please stay! please...!" he hit the dome with more force and felt the glass break “come back, I need you, don’t leave me... I... I LOVE YOU!”
With one last attack he managed to break the dome that separated them, some fragments of glass began to fall around the oasis.----
Gohan woke up suddenly, a new day just started in the chamber of time and spirit, the second day he was there, he could not afford to relax as he wanted, he had to take advantage of the time he had to train with Mirai Trunks before it was too much late. He got up sitting on the bed, put a hand to his face rubbing his eyes, lately he had no idea what was happening to him or because he had those strange and recurrent dreams but the dark haired half-saiyan had the feeling that those dreams were trying to tell him something, something he had not yet been able to find out. But anyway! enough of thinking about dreams with hidden messages, today would be the day when he would try to break the ice and finally talk to Mirai Trunks, not only to train with him to defeat Black Gokū the time they would be in that chamber. He got up from the bed, took his old purple gi that he had never used again after the battle against Majiin Buu and with only that in hand, he went to the bathroom he had in the room he shared with Mirai Trunks to go to shower before breakfast.
Minutes later, Gohan walked down the corridor of the time room already dressed in his purple gi, yawning from exhaustion until he came to the kitchen where he met Mirai Trunks preparing breakfast, he could not see well because he was on his back but something which caught the dark haired half-saiyan attention was that the lavender haired young man was with his back uncovered, when he wanted to ask about it, Mirai Trunks had already turned and what Gohan saw seemed the most provocative he would ever seen in his life: Mirai Trunks approached to the table where he was serving breakfast, wearing nothing but a pair of black boxers and a plaid apron. Gohan could not help but blush at such a view, not even Videl had dared to dress in front of him that way when he prepared breakfast, much less now that they had the responsibility of raising Pan.
“Hey. Hello, Gohan! how are you? I made us breakfast” Mirai Trunks said taking his best friend out of his thoughts, Gohan reacted, he went to the table, took a chair and sat facing the lavender haired young man who placed some plates with hotcakes on the table with cups of coffee, milk and sugar to sweeten the bitter drink.
“You didn’t have to do that, you know? You shouldn’t have bothered to make breakfast for both of us" Gohan said once he settled back in his seat.
“I don’t mind, even if you don’t believe it, this makes me happy” the lavender haired young man comment smiling “it makes me happy to be able to do something for you even if it's for this time”
"Hm, I guess it's fine, thank you very much" the dark haired half-saiyan thanked his best friend, Mirai Trunks smiled and turned his back on him “very well, Gohan. you broke the ice with him, now you can continue talking” Gohan left his brief trance to remember what he wanted to say to the lavender haired young man “hey, Trunks, I...”
He could not keep talking, because when he looked away, he noticed that Mirai Trunks had removed his apron and now he was taking off his boxers, since apparently those were for sleeping, the blush on Gohan's face increased more and involuntarily a hemorrhage erupted from his nose causing him to be unconscious in a puddle of his own blood. On the other hand, Mirai Trunks began to dress up, he put on the same set of clothes with he had arrived at that timeline, he finished putting on his light blue jean jacket with the Capsule Corporation logo on the right sleeve and buttoned the buttons on the torso.
“Well, there we go” the lavender haired young man adjusting the folds of his jacket, he approached to the place where Gohan was “okay, Gohan! I'm ready to..." he interrupted his sentence as he saw his best friend lying on the floor over what appeared to be a pool of his own blood "GOHAN!" the lavender haired young man quickly ran to assist his best friend, he lifted up from that puddle of blood and carried it on his lap with an expression of complete concern on his face “Gohan! Gohan, are you okay? What’s wrong with you? t-there's so much blood here!”
“I-I... I saw it all...” Gohan murmured but luckily Mirai Trunks would believe that he was delirious because of the lack of blood. Mirai Trunks made a quick decision and took care of her best friend, who was still bleeding from the nose, went to get some handkerchiefs in the bathroom and with them began to clean the the dark haired half-saiyan nose with them until it was completely cleansed, after a few seconds of that fright, Gohan woke up, Mirai Trunks sighed in relief and moved away from him so that he could sit up more comfortably.
“Uhm, wow... I guess I gave you a bad time, right?” Gohan asked kneeling in front of Mirai Trunks, holding a hand behind the neck embarrassed, the lavender haired young man just nodded giving him to understand his best friend was right “thanks again, Trunks. you really saved my life”
“Thank goodness! I'm just glad that you're fine, Gohan" Mirai Trunks replied, totally relieved.
“Well, no more time to waste!” the dark haired half-saiyan exclaimed getting up from the floor, Mirai Trunks imitated his action “let’s get to training!”
Without losing more time and without further distractions, Gohan and Mirai Trunks left the room of time to begin training as soon as possible, if they wanted to defeat Black Gokū, they should start training as soon as possible, they would have another moment to talk with more security and confidence, now the important thing there was to train to the limit of their strength and their power level.
