"EEEK IT'S A MONSTER!"
Said monster walked down the street with its crane wings, eel tail, ox head and feet, and yeti body, seemingly bored with the latest reaction to his form; he had more important things on his mind.
Namely, a little redheaded girl in a wheelchair.
The Jusenkyo cursed boy let out a rather loud sigh as he remembered how he met the girl for the first time. It had been after he tracked down the man to give him his original name all to the way to this very same district, however contrary to his first beliefs the old freak wasn't going to go down easily.
So the next day he ha followed the man around until he saw him talking to a girl bound in a wheelchair, and unlike every other female this man came across, she didn't try to bash him in or anything after he showed up.
Thinking this was the edge he needed Taro kidnapped the girl, wanting Happosai to come after her; which he did two days later when a rescue party consisting of some girl who couldn't swim and a guy that needed to turn around five time just to walk in the right direction failed.
After a rather lengthy battle and some hot water Taro was beaten, but after being held by him for awhile Ranko finally asked why he was so mad at Happosai, to which the little freak informed her.
But instead of lighting at Taro or taking pity on him (which he saw as even worse as he wasn't some kind of wimp) she actually did the impossible, and got Happosai to change Taro's first name.
Trunks Taro. Ok, so maybe he was still named after underwear since Happosai wouldn't except anything less, and at the time he thought it was pretty stupid, but that was in the past.
After returning to China and accidentally flying into a Dragonball Z Anime convention due to exhaustion, he could see now that under the circumstances, Ranko had probably gotten him the coolest name she possibly could!
So the weeks passed, and Trunks Taro (now proud of his name) kept thinking about the wheelchair bound girl. He thought how she was extremely cute, her cheerful personality, and her rather crude but fiery spirit. Until finally he couldn't take it anymore and flew back to Japan to see her again.
'Hmm, maybe I should bring some flowers' he thought after walking past a flower cart owner as the man dropped his things and ran; causing the monster to sweat drop. 'And maybe change back while I'm at it'
