I opened my eyes and took in my surroundings. I was in a forest of some sort. The sky was dark and star littered the sky. I looked toward the moon and took a deep breath.
'Okay. First I need to figure out where and when I am. With that information, I can plan from there.'
I stood and looked down at my hands. I seemed to be a young adult judging by my overall size.
'RoBro…hold on…Should I be calling you that? You seem more self-aware now. Would you like to maybe pick your own name?'
[RoBro will do]
'But…technically you're closer to artificial intelligence than a robot. I don't know what I was thinking.'
[And technically the Androids are Cyborgs]
I froze for a moment. I couldn't process what I had just heard.
'RoBro…was that…did you just make…a joke?'
[Yes]
'Ha...haha! My brother has broken out of his shell! You're making jokes now? What a day.'
It took me some time to stop my laughter. When I had regained my composure, I stopped for a moment. When was the last time I had laughed with such honesty? I had laughed before, but those felt different.
Fake.
Since I had gotten my memory back, I felt…different. I recalled my time in the Dragon Ball Universe. It was a strange feeling. My every decision was mine yet…I felt I would make a different one if I had the memories I had now. I would have been even more fake.
I watched myself, uninhibited by the memories of my treatment in the facility, act like a fool in that universe. By the standards of society, I was mentally ill. Gohan's betrayal had come as somewhat of a surprise but I took it in stride.
Now I all I could feel was hurt.
He was my student. Even he deemed me an unnecessary existence. One that would cause only harm.
I felt angry at myself. A second chance at life, wasted just like that.
'RoBro…is that why you sealed my memories?'
[Yes. This is my own treatment method.]
'Heh. It's more effective than the facility that's for sure.'
I had no intention of being an existence that would help others excessively for no reason. However, I wanted to at least be someone who wouldn't die at the hands of their own student.
'I appreciate it RoBro. I'll better myself. For now…bring up my status.'
[Compiling Status…Complete]
Name: //

'That's a simple enough status sheet. Now let's try…'
I sat down and crossed my legs. Similar to my previous body I tried to sense my energy. Even after repeated attempts, I couldn't sense a thing. Ki was an energy that came from every single cell in the body. But now, that energy was missing.
'Guess the laws really are different.'
I instead focused on my abdomen and felt a faint energy nestled there. As soon as I reached out to touch it, it expanded and filled my body.
'So this…is chakra. How bizarre.'
I took a moment to get accustomed to it before I came to a decision. I have no idea where I was. It was dangerous to move around being as weak as I am. I'd wait for the sun to rise before I made any moves. I found a gap in the roots of a large tree nearby and crawled inside to sleep.
