Vegeta and 18 were standing in a wasteland. "You sure that you want to go through with this? I'm not afraid to hit a woman." Vegeta told her.
"Didn't you say something like that the time I broke both of your arms?" 18 replied.
Vegeta fired a shockwave at 18, knocking her towards a boulder. "You're right about that Android. You did beat me the last time we fought. But we both know that I'm far stronger than you now." He began to walk towards her while she started to stand up. "You weren't able to defeat any of Cells forms. But I wiped the floor with him until he became perfect." He fired another shockwave at 18, causing her to crash through the boulder. "Not to mention that I've been training everyday for a year since Cell was defeated. I've only been getting stronger and stronger."
"Are you done yet?" 18 flew towards Vegeta and punched at rapid speeds. Vegeta tilted his head to dodge each strike.
"Question? Have you ever trained a single day of your life? Maybe your punches would hit a little closer to home if you did." Vegeta punched 18 to the ground. "The only reason I agreed to waste my time on you because I don't like having a losing record against you."
"Do you ever shut up?" 18 flew into the air and fired a barrage of ki blasts down at Vegeta. With his bare hand he deflected them all. Vegeta flew into the air and punched 18 in the gut.
"Give up yet?" Vegeta asked. 18 grabbed Vegeta's arm. The force that she was putting onto it told Vegeta that she was trying to crush it. "I take that as a no then." Vegeta kicked 18 several miles away, forcing her to let go of his arm. "Ah, damnit. I forgot that I can't sense her energy. I don't know exactly where I kicked her." Vegeta flew towards the direction he kicked 18.
The blindfolded Krillin turned to his left and prepared to block. He blocked a punch from 17, but was overpowered, and punched through the building. "Ugh." Krillin stood up. "I'm ready again 17!" Krillin yelled.
17 rushed towards Krillin. Krillin tilted his head to the right, dodging a punch. "Not bad." 17 attempted to kick Krillin, but Krillin grabbed 17's leg before flipping him to the ground.
"How do you like me now 17?" Krillin asked.
17 responded by uppercutting Krillin hundreds of feet into the air. "Getting cocky huh?" 17 flew behind Krillin to hammer him downwards.
"Solar Flare!" Krillin yelled. A flashing light blinded 17.
"What the?!"
Krillin grabbed 17, and flew downwards. "I'll just piledrive you into the lookout!" Krillin yelled.
After several seconds, 17 was able to see again. "We already flew past that!" 17 yelled.
"What?"
17 broke out of Krillin's grip, and kicked him downwards. Krillin took off his blindfold and saw that he was kicked through a plateau in a wasteland. "Oh."
Piccolo and Mr. Popo flew down to where Krillin and 17 were. "That wasn't bad Krillin." Piccolo said. "You managed to tell where he was and counter him even though you couldn't sense his energy."
Krillin stood up. "That's a good start to when I fight 18 then."
"Now that you're getting used to sensing the androids movements, you'll be moving on to actually fighting 17." Piccolo said.
"I thought I was already fighting 17." Krillin said.
"If you think I was even using half my effort against you, you're nuts." 17 told him.
Krillin sighed. It figured that 17 was barely even trying. "Hold on a minute. I think I sense something coming toward us!"
"What are you talking about?" 17 asked.
"I can't sense any ki energy, but I can tell something's flying towards me-" Krillin was interupted by 18's body crashing into him. "Owwww." He said weakly.
"Alright, we'll have to get you working on dodging next." Piccolo said.
18 and Krillin stood up. "What are you doing here?" 18 asked Krillin.
"Well I'm...uh...you see..."
"He's training for when he fights you." Piccolo answered.
"So like what I'm doing then." 18 said.
"Wait, what?!" Krillin asked.
"You thought I was going to just sit back and do nothing before we fight?"
Krillin sighed. Just when he thought he was getting closer to standing a chance against her he finds out that she's been training also.
"Don't worry about it short-stuff. That just means you'll have to get better." 17 told him.
18 noticed her brother, and her eyes widened. "17? I haven't seen you since you got absorbed."
"It's been a while sis." 17 replied. "How'd you come crashing in like that though?"
"There you are." Krillin, 18, and 17 looked upwards and saw that Vegeta was flying in the air.
"He's why." 18 answered.
"So, you want to keep trying or what?" Vegeta asked.
18 flew up into the air and rapidly exchanged blows with Vegeta.
"Wait, 18's been training with Vegeta?!" Krillin asked.
"Since when did Vegeta get so strong?" 17 wondered. "He didn't stand a chance against 18 last time they fought."
"It's been over a year since Vegeta lost to 18. And Vegeta surpassed you two within a day." Piccolo told him.
Both Vegeta and 18 jumped back from each other. 18 was bruised and bleeding while Vegeta didn't have a scratch. "What's wrong. Not going to go the super saiyan that that you're so proud of?"
"Don't make me laugh android. Right now you can't give me a challenge when I'm not transformed. Why should I make the fight even easier for me?" 18 got annoyed. She then disappeared before Vegeta's eyes. "God damnit, where did she go?!" Vegeta started looking around.
"I feel something moving in the air. I think it's 18." Krillin said.
"It has to be otherwise we'd be able to sense it's energy." Piccolo said. "What's she doing?"
"She's moving all around Vegeta. She was at his left just a second ago.."
"Can you guess what she's about to do?" Mr. Popo asked.
"She's behind him right now, so she's going to appear behind him, and hit him to the ground." Krillin answered.
18 did exactly that, appearing behind Vegeta, and hammering him through a cliff. She then fired a blast of energy from her fingers at the cliff, causing a large explosion. "Still think I can't give you a challenge?"
"Yes. I do." 18 turned around and saw that Vegeta was behind her. "What the...when did you..." Vegeta punched 18 in the gut.
"If I hadn't grown soft from having a son, I'd have blasted a hole through your stomach by this point." He pulled back his fist, leaving 18 to hold on to her stomach in pain. "I've wasted enough time on you." Vegeta flew away.
Krillin flew up towards 18. "Hey, are you ok?"
18 coughed in pain. "I'm fine. And don't get all concerned. Remember that we're going to be fighting." 18 flew down to meet her brother. "So you're training him 17?"
"I'm just his partner. It's Piccolo and Mr. Popo who are training him."
"Mr. Popo?" 18 turned to him. She never paid much attention to Popo back when she saw him last year, but taking a closer look at the plump genie-like creature made her raise an eyebrow. "So is that the name of this thing?"
"No need to be rude." Mr. Popo replied.
Krillin flew downwards. "I've been sparring with 17 to get ready for when I fight you."
For a little while 18 said nothing. Then she suddenly kicked at Krillin's head. Instinctively, Krillin ducked, grabbed 18's leg, and threw her to the ground. "Wh-what was that for?!"
18 stood up. "Two days."
"Huh?"
"We'll meet here in two days. That's when we'll fight. Come on 17, you're going to help me train." 18 flew off.
"First time seeing her in a year and not so much as a 'how're you doing?' or something like that."
"Tw-two days?! I can barely get you to try against me, how am I supposed to beat her with only two days of training?!"
"Vegeta got stronger than both me and sis in only one day didn't he?"
"One day in this dimension at least." Popo answered.
"Besides, another big reason why Vegeta, Trunks, Goku, and Gohan got stronger than you guys is because they're saiyans." Piccolo told 17. "Krillin's a human."
"We'll stick with the old plan Krillin, but we'll have to raise the intensity by quite a bit." Mr. Popo told him.
"Urrr. Why did she have to set a deadline so soon?!"
"What, do you want to spend decades of training before you actually challenge her?" Piccolo asked.
"Besides, it just means that she's eager to fight you. That doesn't happen too often." 17 flew off.
"Thinking about it, how will 17 find 18?" Krillin wondered. "He can't sense energy in general, and even if he could, he wouldn't be able to sense 18's."
"Guess he didn't think it through." Mr. Popo said.
"That doesn't matter. Right now Krillin, we'll have to kick things up a notch." He fired a ki blast at Krillin, who jumped out of the way.
"So I'll be sparring with you next Piccolo?" Krillin asked.
"Not yet. I'll be attacking you for 8hours straight. You'll have to dodge each attack."
"8 HOURS?! But..."
Krillin was wide open to be punched in the face. "If you complain, you'll be left wide open." Piccolo started charging energy into his finger tips.
"Is that the-"
"Special Beam Cannon. And yes, it'll kill you if it hits." Piccolo fired at Krillin. "DODGE!"
