Trunks alternate future

In Trunks version of the future, Goku was killed by an incurable heart disease. After Goku dies everyone went their separate ways and lived peacefully. But a half year later,two evil appeared in a town south east of the southern capital. They were very powerful and destructive. The Z team swings into action in an attempt to defeat the new threats. Unfortunately they were unable to beat them and each of the Z team members were killed one by one: Piccolo, Yamucha, Tein-shinhan, Krillin and even Vegita were defeated easily. The two powerful beings were known as the two androids. Gohan was the only surviving member of the Z team. 13 years has passed, and the androids continue to wreck havoc on earth. Seems no one is able to stop them. While Bulma and Trunks are driving towards their home, they hear on the radio that Peppertown was being attacked. A young, teenage Trunks gets angry and attempts to fight the androids alone. By the time Trunks gets to Peppertown the androids had already left. As Trunks looks around the wreck, Gohan suddenly makes his appearance. Trunks goes over to Gohan and asks him "why are they doing this?"

Back at Capsule Corporation, Trunks displays his frustration over the androids and asks Gohan to train him. He wants to become stronger so he can fight with Gohan. Gohan agrees and tells Trunks that he is the key to defeating the androids. After eating a meal that Bulma made, the two of them begin their training. During a rest from sparring, Trunks asks Gohan what his father was like. Gohan says his father "puts up a front, but was tough and showed a lot of pride."  Trunks was happy to hear that his father was full of pride; he never really got to know what his father was like. As the day went on, the two continued their training. In this session Gohan attempts to teach Trunks how to transform into a Super Saiyan. Trunks attempts to change but finds it difficult to make the first transformation. It was Gohan's hope that Trunks would become stronger than himself and help beat the androids. 

The next morning, the androids appear at an amusement park nearby. Gohan and Trunks race towards the park. Gohan confronts android 17 and tells Trunks to stand back. The two begin to fight and between them they seem to be at an even level. But when android 18, who was at the moment riding a merry go round, noticed android 17 stalling in the battle,  she interferes and attacks Gohan. The blow knocks Gohan into a building. Worried that Gohan would be in trouble if the two androids attack him at once, Trunks reacts by attacking android 18. He tries his best to fight, but to no avail, he was too weak to put up a decent fight. Android 18 toyed with Trunks blocking his weak attempts easily. Eventually android 18 grew tired of toying around. As she was getting ready to implement a harsh blow, Gohan quickly notices Trunks being in danger. Android 17 fires a blast at Gohan while he rushes to save Trunks. The blast inadvertently hits Trunks as Gohan grabs him.  Then android 18 provides a critical blast towards Gohan and Trunks. In order to protect Trunks, Gohan had to use his arm to absorb the blast. Gohan quickly finds an area nearby to hide. The androids frustrated that they cant find Gohan expend numerous blasts to destroy the whole area. Since Gohan and a unconscious Trunks was still in the area, they got caught in the blasts. The two androids fly away afterward, assuming that no one survived. After some time Gohan awakens and finds himself badly injured, missing his right arm lost in the blast. He struggles to pull out a bag of sensu beans only to find that there is only one left. Gohan gives it to Trunk before passing out.

 

Luckily Gohan recovers from the battle, but he now has one less arm. A few days later, Trunks continues to train as he attempts to transform into a Super Saiyan.  Moments later, the androids are on the attack again, only this time its the central capital. This sends Gohan into a rage as he powers up to go out and fight the androids again. Trunks wanted to help Gohan, believing he is ready to fight. But Gohan doesn't feel the same. He agrees with Trunks to let him fight. But as Trunks turned his back, Gohan knocks him unconscious. Gohan hoped that if he died, Trunks would take over as protector of Earth, surpass himself in power and beat the androids. Gohan did this to protect Trunks. Soon after he confronts the androids again, with nothing in his way. He puts up a valiant fight. But eventually Gohan is over powered and beaten by the androids. They throw a barrage of attacks and blasts that kill Gohan. Trunks regains his consciousness and realizes what happened to him. He walks into the capital, with the city in ruins and finds Gohan lying on the floor motionless. Trunks goes over to Gohan and sees that he is dead. With the rain falling hard and his anger raging, this triggers Trunks ability to transform into a Super Saiyan as he screams in a rage at Gohan's death!

3 years later, nothing has changed as the androids continue to run freely on Earth. Bulma tells Trunks that the time machine is almost ready to use. She wanted Trunks to go to the past so that he can save Goku from dieing of the heart disease. At that moment the androids attacked Bridge Town. Trunks who continued to train and get stronger, feels he is ready to fight the androids. He goes out to fight the terror duo. And although he has become stronger, his inexperience shows as he quickly runs out of "ki" power. At this point Trunks is powerless as he blanks out at the android's attacks.

Trunks wakes up in a medical bed, wrapped in bandages. He was lucky that Bulma got to him in time. He realized that he needs help in beating the androids and decides to go in the time machine. Bulma feels that if Goku were alive, things would not have turned out the way they did. Trunks asks if Goku was really that strong. Bulma goes on to say that in the past, Goku overcame anything. Trunks smiles and says that he looks forward to seeing his father. Bulma then tells Trunks "don't get you hopes up too high!"

Trunks prepares to go 20 years in the past. Bulma gives him the heart medicine to give to Goku.  On the time machine written is "HOPE!" Trunks gets into the time machine bids his mother farewell and takes off.
