Experiment 421

by: 1-800-Great-Saiyaman

Sometime before dawn, Puar awoke to the sound of Yamcha's chattering teeth. She was furry and warm, and except for the long hair on his head, Yamcha was hairless and cold. He honestly thought Bulma would forgive him if he apologized and wasn't prepared to sleep out in his buggy. He wasn't about to return to the city until Bulma forgave him, either.

"Oh Yamcha," Puar sighed in her squeaky cat voice." You should've told me you were cold." She transformed into a small, but warm, blanket. She could only cover him from his shoulders to his hips, but it was enough to keep him from shivering.

Yamcha's cell phone started to ring. Puar transformed the blanket's edge into a paw, and reached into his pocket to answer the phone." Hello? Hello?" She looked down at the phone." it's from Bulma!" The phone rang once more, and Puar pawed at the phone, accidentally sending it to voicemail.

Puar jumped into the air, transforming back into a floating cat." Yamcha, Yamcha, wake up! "

" Twist the shiny gold thingy! Something amazing will happen if you do it! Trust me."

421 twisted the shiny gold knob like the female had instructed. He smirked as the screaming female was knocked off her feet as the door fully opened. Even he would've had the sense to move. His smirk turned into an agitated scowl as his upper body was pelted with stinging bullets.

421 raised his head a little, inhaling the stench mixed with the bullets: raw brain sealed behind glass, chromium, and formaldehyde stained fingertips. He knew only one man who carried this stench.

"Oh my Kami!" The female fearfully shouted - even louder, if that was possible.

421 snorted, so even the female could smell the dreaded scent of Dr. Gero.

Seeing that shooting 421 with regular bullets wasn't working, Dr. Gero stopped firing.

" Come with me Experiment 421," Dr. Gero growled, trying to sound less frustrated than what he was. He tossed his large black gun onto the ground and raised his left arm in surrender. He locked eyes with his experiment while slowly reaching for the small gun under his seat. Unlike the previous gun, one bullet would be enough to stun his experiment.

421 averted his eyes to the blue haired woman staring at them, her mouth hanging open, by his feet.

smiled." Ah, I see you've made a friend. No matter. She can come with us." It was suprising that 421 hadn't slaughtered the woman when he broke into her house. Although time was of the essence and he didn't want to chance losing 421 again, Dr. Gero couldn't help but be fascinated by his creation. "Was Experiment 421 protecting the woman, or was it just a coincidence he came out when he did? Since when did he learn to open doors?" Dr. Gero briefly forgot about the gun under his seat as he gawked at the blue haired woman." Where have I seen her before?"

"I'm not going anywhere with you freaks!" The woman shouted, picking herself up on shaky legs.

421's tail flicked in annoyance, and in one swift motion, tossed the screaming woman over his shoulder and ran from the dome house, and from Dr. Gero.

"No! You idiot!" Dr. Gero shouted, slamming his foot into the gas pedal. Out of all the directions 421 could've ran, he chose the direction leading to civilization. They were miles away from the nearest city, but at the rate 421 was running...the destructive alien Dr. Gero had found and altered, would reach the city hours before him.

Dr. Gero looked out his window as he passed a small buggy, which had come to an abrupt stop when the naked 421 ran by it. He immediately recognized the wide-eyed driver has Yamcha, the martial artist friends with Son Goku.

"Of course," Dr. Gero muttered, slamming on his brakes. His mind reeled with this new information and how he could benefit from his current circumstance. Perhaps he didn't need to wait for Androids 17 & 18 to be completed for him to get revenge on Son Goku after all.
