Future Tien

Future Tien is the alternate timeline counterpart of Tien. He is seen briefly in Dragon Ball Z The History of Trunks, and in the Dragon Ball Z episode "Ghosts from Tomorrow" during a flashback.

Background
Future Tien's life was exactly the same way as his main timeline counterpart's life up until the Trunks Saga. In August of Age 764, Tien watches as Future Son Goku uses the Instant Transmission technique to arrive on Earth and kills both Future Frieza, and Future King Cold (something Future Trunks' arrival in the main timeline alters). Two years later however, in Age 766 on August 12, Future Goku sadly dies from a lethal Heart Virus, and is unable to be wished back to life due to the death being of a natural cause. Tien is shown outside Goku's house when Goku dies. He is shock upon Krillin telling everyone.

On May 12 Age 767, two killer androids appear. Coming to the defense of Earth's inhabitants, Future Tien and the other Z Fighters engage the androids in battle. In the TV special prologue, Future Tien is shown in receiving a swift punch to the stomach by Future Android 18, and in Future Trunks' flashback in "Ghosts from Tomorrow", it is shown that 18 killed him by blasting a hole through his chest with her High Pressure Energy Wave. Future Tien is the fourth Z Fighter to be kill by the androids; he dies after Future Yamcha but before Future Kuririn. The only survivor of the battle is Future Son Gohan, who dedicates his life to avenging his fallen friends. Future Tien was 34 years old when he was killed by the androids.
