Epilogue
In the Dragonball Saga, there are numerous time gaps, doubtless filled with untold stories:  the five years between the final battle of Goku and Piccolo and the arrival of Raditz, the three years preceding the appearance of the jinzouningen . . .  And yet, perhaps the biggest gap remains largely unexplored, is rarely tread upon by fanfiction writers.

The early Mirai timeline.  A time gap of thirteen years, where many things may have happened.  How did Gohan recover from what was surely the devastating loss of nearly everyone he cared about?  Where did Bulma gain the inspiration for the time machine?  What kind of trouble did a preteen Trunks get himself into?

And there are other characters to consider.  Characters such as ChiChi and Ox King, Videl and Hercule, Uranai Baba and Muten Roshi.  And of course, the jinzouningen themselves cannot be forgotten.

Surely, in those dark and dangerous times, there were a few adventures, a few epiphanies.

Thus the stories you will find below.  I've long felt that the early Mirai timeline deserved to be fleshed out, and these are my efforts at it.  Note that the stories will be listed in chronological order, not the order in which they were written.  Each one is self-contained, though there will be occasional references to at least one of the others.

Now, without further adieu, I present to you the stories of the Mirai Continuity.
Thought Processes
