( A/N: I`ve been trying to write for Muun but it just doesn't hit the same anymore, be it because I'm tired from the daily grind or the burn from a 100+ chapter story. All in all, imma keep writing whenever I can come up with plots I personally like.
Side note: All of the Scriblle Hub chapter of Muun's story has been fixed. Before, some chapters were full of ´´ ???? ´´ everywhere, should be fine now :D. )

" So Auntmei, how much has your timeline deviated from ours? Feeling your presence, it feels weird that we have never heard anything related to someone like you. "
Flying between West City's buildings, closing in on Capsule Corp, Gohan feels the strong wind against his face as he tries to keep a side glance at the one following directly beside him.
His face displayed a mix of curiosity and awe at how easily she could follow such speeds in such a weird pose… - " There's quite a lot of crap going on there to be honest. Explaining everything wouuuld take me a while, ye… Just know that I'm unique to there, leave at dat. "
Flying while sitting midair with her legs crisscrossed and nonchalantly waving an arm around as she explained the very surface of their background. Mumei's eyes moved around the buildings they went by, the distinction was weird, as even if they're supposed to be the same, they still had their differences.
Some small details, while others, like the store where she bought her bike, it had become something completely different. Instead of the vehicle store she bought her bike from, they had a fancy restaurant here, be it because they had sold it out to another party or bankruptcy, who knows?
" Uh, unique… What about the others? " - Still wanting to know more, Gohan somehow broke the Owl out of her roaming thoughts.
Getting her eyes back into Gohan, she gave him a smug grin that left the man a bit worried before she continued. - " Heeh, curious aren't we? Know that if you want to catch up with my younger version of yourself, you'd better work your ass off for quite a few years. "
Taken aback at the absurdity, the Hybrid's eyes shook. - " H-How many years are we talking? "
His voice was trembling as he closely watched the woman's facial expressions change from a thoughtful one to deadpan. - " Ya shouldn't wooorry bout'it! Ahahaha! "
Laughing at the face of the other's despair, Gohan sweated before choosing to end his friendly interrogation…
Although the thought of a younger version of himself being so strong at least left him relieved, the little one should keep their home safe. Unlike him…
" Put some of ya attention at the moment, get the next evolutions of Super Saiyan, grind the hell out of the gifts I'mma leave to y'all. What you lack in strength at the moment can always be made up by drinking sum juice and pulling some iron. Haven't ya learned from that Prideful Princess? We Saiyans can pull power out of our asses, just.. Don't try too hard… might stain them- "
" PFFFT- " - Gohan lost his composure mid-flight, having to weave out of the way of the building he almost hit in his distressed moment. Trying to hold a chuckle to himself, he couldn't believe how sharp his supposed teacher could shift topics.
Watching him go back to fly normally, Mumei shook her head, still holding a smug face before following close beside, not even commenting on the man's short loss of his flight control.
" Adult my ass, he almost did what that plane pulled in the Neutral World… Wait-....Hmmm…. Can I get canceled here?…Uh... Naaaaah." - Muttering to herself, Mumei switched topics and brought up what the others in her timeline were doing.
Bringing surprise after surprise to Gohan, as she mentioned how Raditz was alive and had reformed to the differences in the following events from the moment she appeared up to today.
Mumei kept to herself every power-up other than the main line of Super Saiyan ones out of her storytelling; she wanted to talk about those when everyone was together.
She even advised Gura and Kronii to let her do the revelations, which they accepted with no problem. The Owl had the forms and knowledge of how they worked, so it was fitting.
How would she be displaying them? Well, she wanted a certain Prince to know how far he was from anything related to true strength. For one, it would give this one a motivation to rise up to protect his family, and another was her playful sadism kicking in when she thought about the expressions he would show her.
Even if they're not the same, this future Vegeta should still be quite arrogant. - ' It's tis birb's job to humble that big ol' forehead of his down a bit! '
They soon arrived in Capsule Corp, with Mumei having been able to explain to Gohan the surface of most events that transpired in her time.
Now they faced a weird glare coming from a Prince, who tried to look fierce, but given the sharky who was currently hugging him like a baby koala, any serious attempts he might have had at showing fierceness were broken in an instant.

( Location: Capsule Corp - Pov 1st Vegeta's when he revived. )
A vivid nightmare, that's the best way to describe what I remember.
Those two brats came out of nowhere and attacked us, luckily I was enough to buy time for Gura to flee… But the power gap was absurd even after powering up to my utmost.
The Earthlings at least worked as a short distraction, apparently, but even the individual strength of one of the bratty bastards was already proven well over mine.
* Fists clenching * - That humiliation…. Further added to what I'd heard in the afterlife, further increasing my annoyance.
While dead, I soon found myself aware of my surroundings. Although there was no body to be felt, the voices I heard were hard not to distinguish apart.
That bastard, Kakarot. He somehow brought me to that man who taught him the Kaioken he used to once outmatch my greatness in our first battle…
From the way he chatted and explained, the situation of the two teenagers was extremely peculiar; my soul's judgment was further extended. But according to him, given the way I've lived my life so far, there was no way to keep a body in the Afterlife…
There was not much I could do to answer, it seems like the only thing I was allowed in this soul-like pathetic form was being able to listen.
And soon the place became even noisier, the Earthlings, as well as Gohan, whom I became extremely irritated with knowing he also perished, showed up.
Before my Soul itself turned into a Super Saiyan, Gohan, being caught up to my current pathetic, sorry state, spoke out on his end, how he made sure Gura had managed.
Which was even the main reason why he perished in the first place, and upon hearing his voice tone, that irritation soon disappeared. Even though I was annoyed that those two had managed to defeat even the hybrid, the fact that he stood up for Gura wasn't ignorable.
And for the first time since coming here…. Makes me own this brat one, tsk!
What transpired next was mostly them catching up; I ignored most of the random blathering. A few things caught my interest, such as the thing Kakarot brought up.
Something about a ´Other World Tournament´, there were beings who could even match the power of Super Saiyan there… My interest was greatly piqued at that, but Kakarot, like the irritating box of surprises he is, announced he managed to break the wall of a Super Saiyan…
He said so frickin casually, I thought he meant it like I did, but no. According to the explanation from Gohan, who was able to actually feel and see it. It was far beyond it, for more frustrating than it was, it was to be expected this bastard wouldn't sit down quietly even after dying.
Something far beyond even my own Super Vegeta…. One would think someone such as myself would be boiling in rage at this moment. But instead of meaningless rage, I shall use this newfound determination.
Kakarot spilled some nonsense about there being even another level he was theorizing about, he has yet to achieve it… Which further pushes my own progress two steps behind him….
Ughhhh! That really put a nail in my once-boiling determination, I would show this fool how great the progress of a True Saiyan really is!
Took him a few Years? Months? I'm going to achieve even further in weeks! No, days!
From then on, all that followed was Kakarot's attempts to push Gohan to also ascend. Even though it's shameful, I kept in mind the tips and the experience he explained to have before unlocking the next stage, which he simply called " Super Saiyan 2 ", prior to that, he was spewing about mastering regular Super Saiyan to have a better shot at achieving it.
Extremely basic for something so grand, but since it appears to be a natural evolution, I couldn't really oppose it. Watch him name the next one '' Super Saiyan 3 '', or something heh…
Wait… that imbecile might end up doing that…
Anyways…. After who knows how long, the Namekian finally moved and revived us. Took him long enough.
My short moment of joy that has grown from being able to finally move around freely, and my now back vision was cut short upon sensing the multiple Ki signatures coming my way.
Though there was a weird thing also coming this way… It was bizarre, I couldn't pinpoint exactly what or where it or who was, but the pressure kept growing, meaning they also were coming this way.
Not even a minute after a flash of blue coming at rapid speeds across the skies almost pushed me off balance, luckily, she wasn't that heavy, so keeping a proper footing was light work.
Hugging my torso, Gura didn't say a word… This…. Agh... I let it be this time alone.
With my mouth ends twitching, I patted her back. Soon enough the others arrived, as well as a weird blue-haired woman, and that weird presence arrived followed behind them apparently tagging along with Gohan.
Meeting the cause of my instincts flaring like crazy, a pair of anomalistic fiery yellow irises stared my way as if seeing a unique animal in a zoo…. My gut feeling already told me a lot.
Just like those two twins, I couldn't feel her Ki. But different from them, she actually had a weird passive pressure exuding out, leaking even.
The others didn't seem to notice it… But since she landed, it kept growing, as if she wanted only me to feel it…
' I already dislike this one…. '
