Age 764: Goku kills Freeza and Cold.
At some point between Freeza's death and the wakening of the androids, Goku dies because of the heart virus.
Age 766: Trunks is born.
Age 767: Androids kill Vegeta, Piccolo etc. Only Gohan survives and there are no Dragon Balls.
Age 780: Gohan is killed by #17.
Age 784: Trunks loses to the androids and goes back in time to give Goku heart medicine in age 764, creating AT1.
Age 785: Trunks makes his 2nd trip to AT1 to help out against the androids in age 767. He then returns and defeats the androids with shut down device.
Age 788: Cell kills Trunks and goes back further in time, creating AT2.
2) Altered Timeline 1
Age 764: Trunks(OT) kills Freeza and Cold.
Age 766: Trunks is born.
Age: 767: Androids attack, but are eventually defeated by the use of the shut down device, that the Dragon Team stumble upon. Trunks(OT) returns home.
3) Altered Timeline 2
Age 763: Cell(OT) arrives from the future.
Age 764: Goku kills Freeza and Cold.
At some point between Freeza's death and the wakening of the androids, Goku dies because of the heart virus.
Age 766: Trunks is born.
Age 767: Androids kill Vegeta, Piccolo etc. Only Gohan survives and there are no Dragon Balls.
Somehow Cell(OT) ends up dead. Let's just say, that the androids in their random rampage lucked out and destroyed the very field Cell was developing in(as Cell first reached his 1st form a little while after the initial Android attack, leaving enough time for the androids to destroy him before he could complete his development).
Age 780: Gohan is killed by #17.
Age 784: Trunks loses to the androids and goes back in time to give Goku heart medicine in age 764, creating AT 3.
Age 785: Trunks makes his 2nd trip to AT3 to help out against the androids in age 767. He then returns and kills the androids with superior power.
Age 788: Trunks kills Cell.
4) Altered Timeline 3(Main Timeline)
Since Trunks(AT2) travels to a date(764) after Cell(OT) had already arrived(763), Cell(OT)'s existence is a part of the history of AT3, thus there were 2 versions of Cell(OT) travelling back in time, one somehow got killed before getting to absorb the androids, thus barely making AT2 different from the Original Timeline and the other is the Cell we know, who held the Cell Games and got killed by Gohan.

Why?Evil Vegeta said:The newer Chozenshuu removed the 4th timeline entirely. I can understand why now.
CellWho is "he"?
In that case what he said doesn't make sense, because Cell didn't create a new (5th) history/timeline. He ended up in the same one as Trunks (history 1), which is literally what I said in my post. What a waste of time. Next time fucking read before you post cryptic bullshit as usual.
