Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one

Countdown to the change in life that's soon to come

Your life has just begun

-Creed, "Are You Ready?"

"So, I've called all of you here because you are the top scientists, engineers, and computer specialists in Capsule Corp.," Bulma proclaimed, standing at the head of a long confrence table. "And I am in need of your assistance."

"We will do anything to help you, Mrs. Breifs," spoke up one of the engineers.

"Uh, yeah. OK," she continued. "The problem is this: There is an alternate timeline in which there is there are two rogue Jinzounengen. They are demolishing everything, and brute strength can't stop them. Does anyone have any ideas on how to stop them?"

The room remained silent. Somewhere, a cricket chirped.

Bulma sighed. "Ok, I will assign two people to work on this problem." She surveyed the room and saw Amano Miura, the newest, and most promising, computer technician at Capsule Corp.

"Miura, are you willing to undertake and assignment like this?"

The girl's head shot up, and she cast Bulma a determined look with deep violet eyes.

"Yes, I will try."

"Good." Bulma smiled at the girl; just out of High School and taking on challenges like this. It made her wish she was young again.

Looking around the table, Bulma's gaze rested on Montana Saniko, the American geneticist who dropped out of college because it 'didn't prove to be a challenge' to her. Montana was one of the finest minds on the planet, rivaling Bulma's own knack for solving the imposible problem.

"Montana, you always say you're up for a new challenge. How 'bout it?"

The American raised a fine, blue eyebrow and shrugged.

"Mission accepted."

Bulma smiled, knowing that the future was in good hands. "Ok, the rest of you are dismissed. Thank you for your time. Montana, Miura, I will set up a laboratory on the basement floor where I will have all the data on the Jinzounengen sent. Also, you will be working with some friends of mine, they have had first hand experiance with the androids, and will be able to help you. And I will send you all the information of the Mirai timeline , so you won't be confused when we talk about it..."

Bulma trailed off as she left the room, planning her next big project, leaving the two girls in the room to talk.

"Do you have any idea what she was talking about?" Miura asked, brushing her waist-length indigo hair out of her face. Montana adjusted her own shoulder length blue hair, then fixed a serious gaze on the younger woman.

"No. I seriously think Mrs. Briefs has lost it this time."

Miura nodded her head in agreement, and the two left to get ready for the next days work.
