"No, this is all before I altered anything. This is all still current up to my time-line, my past. Their future." Trunks explained patiently. "The Androids continued their reign of terror, decimating cities and killing people all for their own amusement." Again it was clear he carried a lot of weight and guilt here, tone solemn as he shared his memories. "I think Gohan had started trying to help people, to fight back--but he couldn't take on the Androids."
A sigh, and Trunks was taking another deep breath. A slight shift of his posture, calling on inner discipline to keep himself calm even as he shared painful memories. "When I was 14, I managed to get in touch with him, and to mother's frustration--even though she knew she couldn't stop us--Gohan started to train me properly. I'd learned some stuff myself--it's in my blood, if nothing else. He had managed to achieve the state of power, in terms of level, that Goku had. I kept trying to achieve it myself--I believed if we had that level, we could fight back and beat the androids."
