	AND NOW ON WITH....

	Chapter 3: A new hero enters the spotlight.



"Excuse me miss..." he said.

"Yes? What can I do for you young man?" asked the lady responding to the 
teenager with purple hair that stood next to her.

"I was wondering if you could tell me where you kept your geography and 
history books." Trunks responded.

"Certainly." she said "The geography section is on the second floor and our 
history books are at the end of that corridor." pointing to her left.

After thanking the lady, Trunks went towards the history section of the 
library. 
He spent most of the day repairing the time machine, but without the adapter 
that would arrive in about a month there was nothing else he could do but 
wait. Therefore, he decided to go to a library and learn more about the 
world he would be staying in for the next month. Trunks, unlike his mother, 
was no rocket scientist, and studding was certainly not one of his hobbies, 
from where he came, you had to learn more about self defense than 
mathematics. Maybe Gohan was the exception, but Trunks didn't share the same 
kind of interests.
He then took a pile of books, headed towards a nearby table and took a seat.

"Okay... here we go." he said grabbing the first book with a bored expression.

It's not as if he had a choice. Yesterday, Ami, Usagi and Makoto were asking 
him a lot of questions. If it wasn't for that monster that appeared 
interrupting their little chat, they might of guessed that he didn't came 
from this world. In other words, Trunks had to be ready to answer a lot of 
questions, like "Where do you come from?" "How did you get here?" "Where do 
your parents live?" etc....



Meanwhile, at Hikawa temple:

"Well, girls. We certainly have a new enemy." Luna spoke.

"You're not kidding." Minako added "That werewolf was really tough."

"Any idea where did it came from, Luna?" asked Ami.

"Not a clue." she answered "And that worries me, It didn't look like the 
other enemies we've faced before..."

"What are you talking about?" asked Usagi "What made him so different?"

"Think, stupid!" Rei told her "It wasn't after peoples energy like the other 
foes we've faced."

"Well Excuuuuuuuuse me for not noticing!!" she said "And who are you calling 
Stupid?" as she stuck out her tongue.

"Well who do you think???" was Rei's answer as she stuck out her tongue also.

"Girls! Could you save that for later?" Artemis demanded "We have to find a 
way to deal with this problem."

"Tell me, Rei?" Luna asked her "That feeling you had two days ago about some 
weird energy, have you felt that again lately?"

"Well now that you mention it..." she said "I did have that exact same 
feeling while we were fighting that werewolf yesterday."

"Tell us more about it." Artemis insisted "Did it came from the monster?"

"Well....no." she responded "But it did came from near the area where we 
were fighting. Besides, I only felt it for a second."

"You're sure it didn't came from that monster?" Ami asked.

"Absolutely."

"Well, maybe that energy has something to do with the monster appearing out 
of nowhere." Minako suggested.

"But what are we supposed to do?" Usagi asked "How about you Mako-chan? What 
do you th..."

It was then that everybody noticed that Makoto wasn't paying attention since 
the beginning of the reunion, she was stareing at the roof all the time 
while making big dreamy eyes.

"Wasn't he great?" she said "The way he saved that poor boy from death...  
<sigh>..."

Everybody was looking confused at Makoto especially Minako and Rei who 
didn't knew who Trunks was.

"Hey, Usagi." Minako asked "Who's she talking about?"

"Some guy named Trunks she met yesterday." Usagi told her.

"You mean she hardly knows him?" Rei brought up "Hey Mako-chan, are you sure 
he's *the one*? You hardly know him?"

"That doesn't matter!!!" Usagi stated (striking a pose pointing with her 
index finger towards the heavens. We see the background turn like the fourth 
of July) "Each woman must follow her quest for love in search of the ideal 
guy, I trust that Mako-chan's choice in men SHALL bring her happiness!!!!!"

Everyone now stares at Usagi (The 4th of July background fades away).

"Well he is cute..." she explained.

"Usagi is right." Ami added "And besides, he also has a great butt."

Now everybody stares at Ami, obviously they didn't expect HER to make that 
kind of remark.

"WELL WHAT??" she said unable to keep herself from blushing "I'm allowed to 
make that kind of observation once in a life time, aren't I??"


As time went on, the five girls left the temple heading to the Tsukino 
house. Usagi invited all four of them to have supper at her place.

"So, Mako-chan?" Rei brought up "Tell us about this guy Trunks."

"Yeah! Tell us what makes him so special." Minako added.

"Well I really don't know much about him." Makoto answered "Besides the fact 
that he's really cute and that he's a foreigner."

"If he's so cute maybe he already has a girlfriend." Rei suggested. Makoto's 
happy expression was immediately replaced by a serious one.

"Nice going, Rei!" Usagi told her "You really know how to break a smile in 
a girl's face."

"Hey! It's something she should consider!" Rei stated in her defence "He 
might have a girlfriend!"

"I really hope he doesn't..." Makoto said slightly depressed.

"Oh dear." exclaimed Ami.

"What? What is it?" Usagi asked her.

"I forgot to return this book to the library." she answered "Is it okay if 
we pass to library before they close Usagi?"

"Sure. Where is it?" Usagi asked.

"It's a few blocks from your house." Ami told her as she sweat dropped.

"Of course that's something you wouldn't know." Rei added "The day we see 
*you* in a library will be the end of the world as well."

Everybody began to laugh, except Usagi who was glaring at Rei.

At the library (which by coincidence was the same Trunks was at the moment):

"Why hello, Ami." the library lady said "What brings you here today?"

"Good evening." she said politely "I came to return this book." handing over 
the book.

"Finished already?" the lady said surprised "Any other books that you might 
be interested in? We just got that new book you wanted."

"Great! Where is it?"

"Over there." she pointed "By the literature section."

The five girls went to the aisle next to were Trunks was. 
Both groups not noticing the other. Trunks was almost asleep after so many 
books he read, eventhough he only understood half of them.

"Let's see......Hum.........here it is." Ami said as she pulled out the book 
from the shelf. As she did, an opening was made between the two aisle and 
Amy could see Trunks on the other side.

"Oh my, isn't that Trunks over there?" she added.

"Where?" Makoto asked showing spontaneous interest, then moving Ami one side 
to be able to see Trunks "It is him!"

"Well, let us see!" Minako demanded as she took Makoto's place "We want to 
know what he looks like.............Wow, he really is good looking."

"Let me see! Let me see! Let me see!" Rei insisted.

"Usagi..." Makoto said as she turned towards Usagi "Can I ask you a favor?"

"Un... Sure." she said a little confused.

"Would it be too much trouble if you could invite Trunks to have supper with 
us at your house?" Makoto asked hopefully "I would really appreciate that."

"Sure. But what's going to be my excuse for bumping into him?" 

"Hi, girls." said a voice behind them, it was Trunks who was returning the 
books he borrowed.

"WHHAAAAAA..." screamed the girls in surprise.

'SHHHHHHHHHHHHH' said the other people in the library.

"Oh. Trunks. It's you." said Usagi holding her chest still in a little bit 
of shock "We didn't hear you."

"What a coincidence to find you here." Makoto exclaimed "What are you doing 
here anyway?"

"Just came here to read some books." Trunks answered showing the books he 
was reading "What about you?"

"We came accompanying Ami in search of a book." Minako told him "By the way, 
I don't think we've been introduced. I'm Minako Aino"

"And I'm Rei Hino." Rei added "Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you both, I'm Trunks" he said.

"Trunks, we were wondering..." Usagi brought out "Would you like to join us 
for supper at my house. Everybody is coming."

"Well... I don't know..." he responded, after all they seemed determined to 
find out more about him "I wouldn't want to impose on your family."

"Don't worry" Usagi replied "You're our guest of honor, we still haven't 
thanked you formally for saving Mako-chan yesterday."

"Thank me... formally?" he asked [What is she talking about. You girls have 
already thanked me about three time each. How much formal can you get?]

"You saved Mako-chan?" Minako and Rei asked simultaneously "If that's the 
case we insist you tell us more about that during supper."

"Besides," Usagi added "we never got to finish our chat yesterday because of 
that monster, we still have a lot of things to ask you."

"Hun... right ... our chat yesterday..." Trunks said now even less convinced.

"Come on." Ami insisted "You'll love the way Usagi's mother cooks."

Well... it *was* late and Trunks had nothing to eat so far, not to mention 
that refusing a free meal from these girls would be rude.

"Okay. I'll join you." he said [What's the worst thing that could happen?]

A few moments later Trunks and the girls are walking down the street to 
Usagi's house. Makoto is walking next to Trunks, he on the other hand is 
thinking of the answers he would have to come up with if he was interviewed. 

"Welcome home, Usagi." Said her mother "I see you brought visitors. Who 
might this young man be?" looking at Trunks with a friendly smile.

"My name is Trunks" he said "Pleased to meet you."

"Well it's always nice to see our daughter making new friends." Usagi's 
father said, suddenly appearing next to his wife "Please come in."

"Trunks." Usagi brought out "This is my mother and father, and that over 
there (pointing at a boy playing Nintendo) is my obnoxious little brother 
Shingo!"

"I heard that!" Shingo said out loud.

"Why don't we all sit down for supper." Usagi's mother suggested "The food's 
ready!"

Everyone sat down at the table, Makoto and Minako were next to Trunks, in 
front of him were Usagi's parents, at the right and left side of the table 
were Ami, Shingo, Usagi and Rei.

"So, Trunks?" asked Usagi's father as he started the conversation "Where are 
you from?" everybody looked at Trunks as he became the center of attraction.

"I'm come from America." he said as he remembered that name from one of the 
books he read earlier.

"Really?" asked Mrs. Tsukino "You speak Japanese very well for being an 
American."

"Yeah... un... well... er... my mother is Japanese." he lied.

"Oh that explains it." 

"Well anyway." Mr. Tsukino continued "Tell us what brings you all the way 
here."

"That's right." Ami added "You told us you got here by accident."

"Well..." Trunks responded as he tried to explain "I think you could say I 
made a wrong turn."

No one was quite sure of what he meant by that, but Usagi's father nodded 
instead.

"I see, those occidental air lines are a real mess. I remember when I last 
used one." he claimed "Anyway, it must be very hard for you to be on your 
own in a place like Tokyo."

"There's no need to worry, sir." Trunks replied "I can take care of myself."

"Maybe so." Mr. Tsukino said "But does your family knows where you are?"

"Yes, they're aware."

"And what about your girlfriend?" Makoto asked nervously awaiting for an 
answer "She must be worried."

"I... don't have a girlfriend." Trunks responded a little confused by that 
type of question.

"NO WAY!!!" said the five girls at the same time "NO GIRLFRIEND????" Makoto 
suddenly regained that happy look on her face.

"Well... yeah... What's so strange about that?" he asked still confused.

"It's very unusual that such a handsome boy as yourself doesn't have a 
girlfriend." Mrs. Tsukino explained.

"Handsome??? Who? Me?" Trunks asked even more confused and no less 
embarassed. No woman ever told him he was good looking, (Well maybe his 
mother that didn't really count) he was surprised by that kind of remark. 
Where he came from it didn't matter if you were pretty or not, what counted 
was how well you fought.

"Anyway." interrupted Mr. Tsukino trying to change the subject as he saw how 
Trunks was getting a little embarrassed "How long will you be staying in 
Japan?"

"Well I'm not sure." he said "I think I'll be here for a month or so."

"Why such a long time?" Mrs. Tsukino asked "If you're in the wrong place, 
shouldn't you try to get home as soon as possible?"

"I tried." he answered "But I'm having problems with my... er... passport! 
It'll be about a month before everything is fixed."

"I see." Mr. Tsukino went on "And what about school?"

"What about it?" 

"Aren't going to school while you're staying here?" he asked him.

"Well... not really." Trunks answered.

"How can that be?" Mrs. Tsukino asked quite surprised.

"Well... er..." Trunks said as he was trying to find an excuse "As I told 
you earlier... hum... I had a few problems with my documents and therefore I 
can't enter school. [I hope they'll buy that]"

"Oh, so that's why you were at the library?" Ami brought out "Since you 
can't enter school you're studding there instead."

"Er......Yes! That's right!" Trunks lied.

"Well if an adult's permission is the only thing you need to get into 
school..." Mr. Tsukino started "Then we can help you, Trunks."

"You can? [Uh oh, I don't like the sound of this.]" Trunks asked not very 
happy about the idea.

"Why certainly!" Mr. Tsukino assured "I'll personally inscribe you to 
Usagi's school tomorrow morning."

"That's a great idea, dad!" Usagi declared.

"I really wouldn't want to trouble you." Trunks said trying to find a way 
out of this mess.

"It's no trouble at all!" Mrs. Tsukino confirmed "We certainly can't let you 
fall behind in your studies. Besides, I'm sure your parents would want you 
to keep studying while you're here."

"Uh... Yeah... I guess... [Aww man, what have I got myself into???]" he said 
knowing he was now doomed.

"You'll be able to start school tomorrow morning." Mr. Tsukino stated.

"And we can help you catch up in your school work as well?" Ami added.

"Thanks, you're all really too kind. [Great, now I'm stuck with school!]"

"Well, anyway." Minako said trying to change the subject "Enough about 
school. Tell me Trunks, do you by any chance have any older brothers?"

"No, not really, I'm an only son."

"Hun, too bad." she said a little disappointed.

"By the way Trunks..." Makoto asked "Have you found a place to stay?"

"Because if you haven't..." Mrs. Tsukino added "There's always a place here."

"I've already found a place. I wouldn't want to trouble you. You've already 
done more than enough for me. [More than enough trouble that is!!]" Trunks 
explained. The last thing he needed now was to stay with them.

"Anyway..." Usagi said "Mako-chan told us you were a great martial artist. 
What technique do you use?"

"I don't really use any technique in particular, I learn a little from 
everything I see and try to create my own style." he responded a little 
less nervous now that they were asking him of things he knew of.


The rest of the evening went more smoothly, the other questions Usagi, Rei, 
Ami, Minako and especially Makoto asked Trunks were easier to answer, most 
of them where about what he liked and disliked and stuff like that.
Soon it was 6:00 PM and everybody was about to leave.

"Thanks again for inviting me." Trunks said as he and the other girls were 
about to leave.

"Don't mention it, it's the least we could do." Usagi stated "I'll see you 
tomorrow at school, Okay?"

"Hun... right... school..." he responded still not very happy about that 
concept.

Everyone left Usagi's house in a different direction, Trunks was now 
thinking about his new problem.

"Trunks! Wait up!" said a voice behind him, it was Makoto "Where are you 
heading?"

"Home." he answered.

"Oh! You live at the north side? What a coincidence, so do I. Mind if I join 
you?" she asked (Most of you Sailor Moon fans might noticed that this is a 
typical maneuver that the Senshi use to get men, especially when in this 
case, Makoto lives in the exact *opposite* direction Trunks does.)

"Sure, no problem." he told her.

They were walking down the street, Trunks was still thinking about his 
current situation, and as for Makoto, she was waiting for an opportunity to 
make her move. She slowly began to let Trunks ahead of her. Then she 
pretended to trip over some inexistent object, launching herself towards 
the sayan hybrid and grabbing his arm so she wouldn't fall. The end result 
was obvious, she managed to grab Trunks by the arm (Yet another Sailor 
Senshi tactic to get men!).

"Oups!" she said innocently as she held his arm.

"Be careful not to fall." was Trunks' response.

They resumed walking, Makoto was still holding Trunks' arm, happy that her 
maneuver worked. The purple hair boy, on the other hand, didn't mind if she 
was holding his arm, as a matter of fact, he didn't even seem to noticed.

"Hu... Makoto?" Trunks told her.

"Yes?" she asked.

"Can I ask you a question?" he said.

"Sure! [Is he going to ask me out on a date?]"

"Do you remember what happened yesterday at the puppet show?" he continued.

"Yeah, what about it?"

"Those girls that were fighting the monster, who were they?"

"Well, (a little disappointed about the question) those were the Sailor 
Senshi. They fight for love and justice." she answered.

"*Love* and Justice?? [Wow! Is that corny or what?]" he repeated a little 
surprised.

"Is there something wrong about that?" 

"No... not really. [Just sounds corny that's all.]" he told her "Do they 
usually appear and beat up monsters?"

"Well sure, each time a monster appears threatening the citizens, they show 
up." she responded.

"You're telling me this as if a monster on the rampage was a daily thing." 
the Sayan hybrid pointed out a little surprise "Is it?"

"Well not exactly. I mean... It isn't normal, but each time a monster 
appears they show up." she explained.

"And does a couple of girls in mini-skirts using some weird powers are 
considered normal?" Trunks asked again.

"Well... Yes." she answered a little confused.

"You mean people don't ask questions about them?" he asked once more.

"Well, sure they do. But they make dolls and sell video games instead of 
investigating, people consider them more like some sort of publicity than 
anything else."

"It must really be tough on them, to be seen that way" Trunks declared.

"You really think so?" Makoto asked him as she smiled, no one she ever met 
though that way before. Most of the people she knew told her how cool they 
were, but no one ever thought of them as human beeings.

"Sure I do. People should like them for what they do instead of treating 
them as some sort of merchandise." Trunks answered. He then noticed that 
Makoto was smiling at him "Wh... what? Was it something I said?"

"No. Nothing at all. I just... didn't knew you thought that way, that's 
all." she answered "Is there anything else you want to know?"

"Not really." he responded "Thanks for filling me in, Makoto."

"By the way, Trunks." she added "You can call me Mako-chan like all my 
friends do."

"Hun... sure... if you want me to." he said.

"Trunks?" she said. 

"Yes?"

"How do your friends call you?" she asked him.

"They call me by my name." he answered a little confused "Why do you ask?"

"Well..." she said "Can I call you Trunks-kun?"

"Well... er... sure... that's fine by me." he told her still a little 
confused.

"Oh! And another thing..." she said "Would you like to..." she was suddenly 
interrupted by a bipping sound that came from her pocket [Uh Oh, there's 
trouble.] "Um... I have to go now." she told him "See you tomorrow at 
school." as she left Trunks behind.

"Hun... Yeah, whatever..." Trunks said not very sure of what just happened, 
although he did managed to hear a bipping sound.


On another street, Makoto took out her communicator after making sure that 
no one saw her:

"Makoto here, what is it?" she asked to the person on the other side of the 
line.

"Mako-chan, there's a new monster attacking the central mall, we need your 
help!" said Rei "Hurry up!" 

"Okay, I'll be right there!" she responded, then she turned off her 
communicator "JUPITER POWER MAKEUP!"



Meanwhile, Trunks who was now alone, was walking home. He suddenly stopped 
and thought.

[Since I'm now going to school I might as well get myself a uniform and a 
school bag.]

He decided to go to a shop instead of home, after all, he didn't have much 
to do.

[I still can't believe I got stuck in this mess,] he thought [if I ever knew 
they were going to send me to school I wouldn't have accepted that 
invitation from Usagi in the first place.] <sigh>

It only took him a few minutes to find a shop that was open. After finding a 
uniform that fit and a school bag, he was ready to be on his way back home.

[Maybe this won't be so bad.] he thought again [I'll might get a chance to 
know this place better by being a student.]

Suddenly, outside the shop, a bunch of people ran through screaming and 
yelling. Trunks came out of the shop to see what was all commotion about. 
He managed to stop one of the terrified citizens and asked him what was 
going on.

"A monster appeared at the central mall!" the guy said "It started wreaking 
the place... the Sailor Senshi came to the rescue... it's a mad house over 
there!"

He released the guy and went to the mall. The area was now desolated, 
everyone ran away, but Trunks could sense a fight inside the building. Since 
no one was watching, he used the Bukujutsu technique to fly to the top of 
the mall, thinking it would be better if he came from above. 
Once inside, the purple hair boy could clearly see what was happening. The 
Senshi were fighting a monster, or at least three of them were. Sailor Moon 
and Sailor Mars were lying on the ground K.O. The other Senshi were having 
a hard time against the monster. 

Unlike the previous monster, this one was 100% metal with an extra pair of 
arms and arachnid legs.

[Those girls are having a hard time against that thing!] Trunks thought 
[Where's that Tuxedo guy to help them out? I've got to help them! But how?]

Suddenly, an idea came to Trunks' mind. He started looking around the mall 
until he found a disguise shop. He immediately went inside searching for 
something.

"SUPREME THUNDER!" Sailor Jupiter shouted as an electric bolt came out of 
her tiara striking the android. Her foe created an energy barrier protecting 
it from the blast.

"Darn! We're getting nowhere like this!" Sailor Venus said "Sailor Mercury, 
haven't you found that thing's weak point yet?"

"Not yet!" she spoke while consulting her computer.

The monster stared at the remaining Senshi preparing his next attack. All of 
his arms started spinning as drills, making the kind of noise you hear when 
you go see your dentist. He dashed towards the Senshi arms first.

"Take cover!" shouted Sailor Jupiter.

All the Senshi closed there eyes (Now why should that help?) expecting the 
worst. At that precise second, about a dozen ki spheres struck the android. 
Although his barrier protected him, the impact sent him against a wall 
instead of its targets.
The three Senshi turned to see who was there savior. What they saw was a 
blond guy dressed in brown leather boots and black clothes. He was carrying 
a sword on his back and wore a black mask which hid his face. Although the 
most impresive thing about him was a) the fact that he was levitating next 
to them, and b) the golden aura that surrounded him. 
It was Trunks in Super Saiyan mode. He managed to find a Zorro outfit in the 
shop but he wasn't using the cape or the hat (he didn't like those).

"If you're so eager to fight someone..." Trunks said trying to use a 
different tone of voice "I'll take you on!" as he flew towards his adversary.

The android regained its defensive pose waiting for its opponent, he was 
quite confused as he noticed he couldn't read his moves or determine his 
position. The metal menace was receiving one blow after another while being 
unable to parry or counterattack. It was finally sent against another wall. 
The impact also cause its shield to stop working.

Trunks suddenly appeared a few feet in front of him, he held both hands 
forward, did some strange arm moves, and then put both hands forward again, 
index fingers and thumbs touching.

"BURNING ATTACK!" he shouted releasing a huge ki blast from the palm of his 
hands. The blast struck the monster turning it into scrap metal. The Senshi 
were amazed by what they just saw, they couldn't even see him hit the 
creature.

"Wh... What did he do?" Sailor Venus asked "I wasn't even able to see most 
of his moves!"

The other two Senshi nodded in agreement, they couldn't find the words to 
express what they just saw. Trunks slowly flew towards the three girls which 
looked at him very amazed.

"Are you girls all right?" he asked.

"Y... yes... thank you." Sailor Mercury finally said.

"Here." Trunks said as he pulled two seeds out of a pouch he had on his belt 
and gave them to her. It was a good thing he visited Karim-sama before 
leaving in his time travel, Sailor Moon and Sailor Mars seemed to be in 
need of a senzu.

"Give these to your friends." he added "All there wounds will be healed 
immediately." he then started to levitate heading towards a nearby window.

"WAIT!!!" Sailor Venus shouted "Who are you?"

"[Uh oh, I didn't think of a name!] Er.......You can call me......er.......
SUPER SAIYA-MAN!!!!!!!" he shouted back as he left through the window.

"Super Saiya-man???" repeated the three Senshi still in amazement. 




End of chapter 3.

Author's notes:

I really hope I'm doing this the right way, I'm not 100% sure if all the 
characters in this fanfic normally act the way I'm making them act. I have 
to admit that I haven't got a clue if Future Trunks is a good student or 
enjoys studying. But since this is MY fanfic I thought it would be fun if I 
made Trunks act like most teenagers who hate school. And as for the Sailor 
Senshi, I really hope I didn't exaggerated with Makoto's lust for men.

See you in chapter 4...
