A few months have passed since the defeat of Khitan's evil alter-ego, Aku Syojo, but not without casualties. The Condemned City was mostly destroyed and Trunks nearly died as well because of taking too much cocaine and now he is in a coma, struggling between life and death. His mother is giving him special medicine for the cocaine to wear out from his body, but because Trunks is half Saiyan, it takes more time than it normally would, while both Bra and Mizuna watch over him during this delicate moment of his life.
Meanwhile, Khitan went to the Lookout to undergo a special meditation to erase Syojo's personality of good or at least keep him under control, while Goku started teaching Uub the Instant Transmission Technique. After having the time of his life on Planet Gogeta, Gohan decides to return home to Earth. But suddenly, his great grandpa Gohan becomes ill and Gohan realizes that he will pass away soon because of old age. Gohan contacts his dad immediately, and shortly after his arrival Grandpa Gohan passes away happily with a smile on his face, but not before saying goodbye to his loved-ones. Taanipu, Grandpa Gohan's companion during his short time alive again, was more devastated than she thought she would be and after his funeral, and after Gohan's and Goku's departure back to Earth, she felt lonely ( even though Goku did invite her to go back with them to Earth and live there, but because of her stubbornness, she refused ), so she decides to go search for Bardock. She realized she still had some feelings for him and remembered how much she felt attracted to him a long-long time ago. This is all good, but by now, Bardock already settled down with his ex-comrade, Fasha, and things were going well for them, even though they've decided not to have kids for their own. But once Taanipu finds out about Bardock being with Fasha, she becomes sort of jealous and once she meets Fasha, she attacks her head-on. The two women start fighting each other ( during this time Bardock was sent away on a little mission by King Vegeta ), tearing each other's hair out and clothes off, becoming partially naked. But they're both equally strong and only manage to injure each other with no victor, however, Fasha does prove to be more skilled in combat, and after fighting for 15 minutes, Taanipu decides to give up and retreats. But before that, she tells Fasha that she's a great companion for Bardock and wishes them the best, which after she flies away to be never be seen or heard anymore. ( sorry, but some characters' destiny needs to be left unclosed ).
The following stories are thought out to be a filler during these 3-4 months while Trunks is in a coma, like the Garlic Junior Saga in DBZ. Some of them may be less faithful to the series or some persons may feel as if they were out of character, but that's how I imagine them in my head. Here's how I imagine Vegeta's mom's backstory...She was an any ordinary female Saiyan: cold, ruthless, maybe less warrior type, but still quite strong, and very arrogant. I thought of three possible names for her: Maiza ( from "maize"- that's how they call the corn in the UK ), Selori ( celery ), and Kyuuri ( cucumber ). I prefer the latest so that's how I will call her from now on. After she and King Vegeta got together ( I'm not talking about marriage, just soul mates, however, she did become a queen ), Kyuuri became full of herself and bossy. Once she got carried away, and wanting to impress both King Vegeta and Frieza, she sent 50 of the king's best warriors in a mission to conquer a very big planet with strong inhabitants which didn't have a moon and by then the Power Ball technique hasn't been developed yet. So the Saiyan warriors were overwhelmed and suffered a horrible death ( the planet's inhabitants were more like cannibalistic beasts ) and after King Vegeta heard all this, she banished his "wife" from their home planet, but not before she giving birth to Vegeta ( she was already seven moths pregnant ). Of course, she was devastated and apologized to King Vegeta countless times but for no use. She hardly even got to see her newborn baby when the doctors took him away from her and after she recuperated, she was sent away to a distant planet in a space pod. Nappa, who was chosen to be Vegeta's minion, was quite saddened of the situation and for a few years he kept in touch with Kyuuri, showing her pictures with her son and telling her how strong he was getting. But King Vegeta found about them and almost killed Nappa for his actions, but instead she sent Kyuuri far away to another galaxy, so she could never see her son ever again. Of course, that didn't stop her from trying so, but after Frieza destroyed Planet Vegeta, she did not know where to find his son anymore, so eventually she gave up, while Vegeta was always told by his father that his mom passed away while giving birth to him so he never looked for her either. Even nowadays, when King Vegeta was revived, he refused to tell Vegeta the truth, thinking she may be already dead so it was pointless to dig up the past. But Nappa, wanted too badly to mess with Vegeta's emotions as a revenge for killing him all those years ago, so after he and Raditz left Earth 2.0 and also separated from each other, he went to search for Kyuuri on the planet they last met, hoping he would find some clues about her whereabouts. To his luck, after some time he actually finds her, but by now she is very old and can hardly move. Nonetheless, she decided to make a one final trip of her life to be reunited with his long-lost son, so they both head to Earth. Once they arrive in a forest, Vegeta immediately feels Nappa's ki and flies to the landing spot, only to get the shock of his life. After finding out the truth, Vegeta becomes enraged at his father's actions, and actually decides to go to Planet Gogeta and destroy him, but his mom makes him promise not to do that, afterwards she finally passes away in his arms at peace. Vegeta actually starts to cry while he buries her in the place where they met for the first, and sadly, the last time. Afterwards, Vegeta thanks Nappa for reuniting him with his mother, at which Nappa simply just nods and then flies away. Nappa was very touched at what just happened but he was also smiling with an evil grin on his face. Little did Vegeta know, that while he was crying, Nappa took pictures with him with a hidden camera and he later uploaded the pictures all over the Internet. It didn't take long, until the employers at the Capsule Corp. were talking behind Vegeta's back saying that behind all his muscle, he's actually a cry baby. The news spreads away quickly, and turns into the latest gossip until one of Bulma's friends shows her the pictures as well. Bulma becomes very surprised at what could have caused her husband to cry like that and after she talks about it with Vegeta, the prince of Saiyans immediately knows that it was Nappa who posted the pictures on the Internet. Of course, Vegeta goes to look for Nappa so he could kill him again, but by now Nappa was already in space, flying as far away as possible with joy and satisfaction.
Meanwhile, I imagine Raditz going planet to planet, having some small adventures of his own, while he finds his place in the Universe. He eventually becomes a better person, as he learns how to love and care, and finds himself an alien female mate, as they settle down on a remote distant planet. Back on Earth, one night at the Capsule Corp. we see a frog sneaking into Bulma's lab stealing one of her inventions away. Later we find out, it was Captain Ginyu all along, who was still stuck in the frog's body; he steals the translator device and goes to search his original body so he can become his original self again. But finding it isn't easy...at all, as he has no clue where to start his search so he changes bodies between Goku and himself. Ginyu wants to use Goku's ki sensing technique to be able to sense out his original self, but fails to do so. Meanwhile, Goku Frog manages to warn Gohan about what's going on, while Gohan starts fighting with Captain Goku outside their house, while Chi-Chi, Goten, Videl and Goku Frog watch them. Captain Goku only manages to transform into a Super Saiyan 2 so Gohan beats him with ease. Afterwards, Ginyu gives up and begs them to help him find his original body as he fell in love with a 41-year-old woman and wants to be with her. After giving Goku's body back and turning back into a frog, Goku takes Ginyu to the Lookout, where Dende locates Ginyu original body near a swamp somewhere South. Captain Ginyu returns into his original body and thanks Goku for helping him out, while he also apologizes about their past encounter back on Namek. Afterwards, Captain Ginyu meets up with his loved one, however, he's still very shy about his looks, and considers taking Goku's body back for good, but the woman tells him he looks handsome his own way and that she fell in love with him because of his personality when he was a frog and not because his looks. In the end, they kiss each other on the lips and like in fairy tales, they live happily ever after.
I additionally wanted to bring back another recurring character, this time from the Dragon Ball series, none other than Master Thief Hasky. I wanted her to go to North and visit her sister, who turns out to be Launch ( well, they do resemble a lot ). Coincidently when Hasky arrives, Launch is turned into the blonde Launch who immediately thinks that her sister visited her only to borrow money ( that's why she visited her in the past, they never had a close relationship, while she only used good Launch to get want she needs, generally money, food, some clothes and gas for her motorcycle, then Hasky immediately dumped her), and tells her to leave; but Hasky responds to her that she came to finally reveal the horrific story she kept a secret for so many years about Launch's double personality. Of course, it was their parents' fault for her turning out that way, more exactly their father's ( their mother died when giving birth to Launch) as he was an alcoholic; all day long, he did nothing than to drink, sleep and watch tv, while his daughters had to go to beg on the streets and clean the house after him. One day, however, the inevitable happened and things got out of control when Launch was only 13-years-old while Hasky was 17; because of the simplest things like Launch forgot to put salt on the food, her father hit her on the head with a glass filled with beer so hard, her head started bleeding badly. But her father didn't become worried as he was used to abuse their daughters and hit them whenever he liked too. But this time, it was different, as the bleeding wouldn't stop. Her dad kept laughing and calling her names, until Launch couldn't take it anymore and shot him on the head with her dad's gun ( her dad was a former police officer until he retired after he accidentally shot someone, but never returned the gun ). After that, Launch fell unconscious while Hasky carried her to the hospital for medical care. There, Launch stayed in a coma for a whole year, both because of the head injury and the shock while Hasky decided to go stealing to get enough money to pay for the hospitalization. A year later, Launch miraculously recovered, or so the doctors thought; it was then when Launch's second personality emerged; both neither of them remembered anything about what happened before they got hit on the had by their father. Hasky later lied to her that he died because of drinking too much, and raised Launch the best she could on her own. As we return to the present, we see Launch filled with tears but also transitioned back to her good self without even sneezing. She then thanks her sister for telling her the truth and hugs her tightly, which she hasn't done for many years. Afterwards, Hasky prepares to leave, but Launch is once more transitioned back to her blonde self and puts some money into Hasky's pocket with a smile on her face. Hasky then smiles back and rides away with her motorcycle. Just then, Tien and Chiaotzu return from the mountains from their training, and ask Launch who it was. Launch, however, smiles at them but doesn't respond, then she looks up in the sky worried about her son's well-being.
