I'm sorry again! Suddenly my life is so full of things to do that I had no time to update the fic, I'm really sorry! I'll try to post the last two chapters next week (I can't promise nothing on this one), and I hope you all like the end. Thank for all favs, follows and reviews I got so far! I know I have issues with my English, and some chapters could be better (in length, and quality) but I also have author's blocks… sigh. Ok, no more talking!

Disclaimer: as always, I don't own Dragon Ball Z, just this madness I wrote ~~

Chapter 20

Gohan and his crew stopped midair, a few meters away from the barricade the Z warriors made. A fearsome smile crossed his face as his gaze passed by all of them; Kuririn, #18, Vegeta, Piccolo and Goku. His gaze went to his crew of 10 men; they were greater in number, but he knew by his holster's memory that he shouldn't underrate them. With a nod he spoke.

"It's nice to see you all again. We are glad to at least, gave you all a fair fight. We know you should be anxious for the fight, but as I have something to do, have fun with my fellows." With a fast movement his crew went ahead, two against each one of the Z warriors, and Gohan laughed to his heart content. He carefully watched the fight, getting mad at how easily they were handling their opponents, but flew forward anyway; he wanted to find someone. #18 had her blank face while avoiding the punches and kicks of her two opponents, she easily grabbed one arm and a leg from each spinning around the two men, making them clash on each other. A sadist smile came to her face as she dropped them before charging a ki blast that killed both in a fast move; soon a sudden yell from her husband startled her.

"Eighteen! Why did you kill them?!" Kuririn he had a frown on his face, but soon enough he looked to his own opponents. He could just block their attacks; sure he was the strongest human on earth, but these guys were powered up by the evil's power. His wife sighed madly at him.

"They are the bad guys. If I didn't kill them, they would try to kill me. It's better if you do it too." She emphasized the word 'try' just to make clear she was stronger than these fellows. Sighing with angry he put his hands up, charging his ki; she did had a point there. He waited for a perfect chance, what came fast because the duo charged at him without thinking twice.

"Kienzan!" With a fast movement he threw the sharp ki towards his enemies, cutting them in half, blood splashing around. Making a disgust face he turned to his wife. "God that was gross." She raised one eyebrow at him.

"You know you could had used another attack right?" #18 got closer to him, now a smirk on her face. The bald man shrugged.

"Well, I didn't really think about it." She giggled and after a kick kiss on his cheeks they looked to their friends. At distance Gohan looked back after feeling pain inside his body, noticing that four of his comrades died; cursing under his breath he turned back to his way. Goku in the meanwhile was dodging fast; his two enemies where strong, but he was more. He kept analyzing their movements, frowning once he noticed these guys weren't anything at martial arts; they were just trying to hit him whit whatever they could and that was making him bored. With a sigh he saw that Kuririn and Eighteen had killed their opponents, and, although he hated to admit it, he knew he had to do the same. After a deep breath he made an energy ball in each hand and aimed for his enemies and after the impact nothing more could be seen of their bodies. Piccolo and Vegeta didn't had more issues with their fights, and after noticing that even Goku killed the 'humans' both did the same.


Erasa, Sharpener and Eve were looking at her friend with concern; right after Videl woke up and talked to the fighters she fainted. A high fever started to grow within her, her body was somehow changing – she had a black goop on her forehead, strange symbols were emerging on her skin – and that made the trio frown in fear. What was happening to their friend?

Wake up and come to me.

Videl's eyes opened instantly at the sound of the voice that came inside her head. Looking around she noticed the three people on the same room, they went to her as fast as she sat down on the bed.

"Videl! What are you feeling?" Erasa was the first to talk, but as an answer she got a frown.

"Your friend… Is not here anymore." The two blondes narrowed their eyes at the brunette. What kind of nonsense was she saying? It was Eve who answered their inner questions.

"You… did you consume her? I can't feel Videl's ki anymore. I could until…. Her, no, you woke up." The girl looked at the kid, her dark orbs looking right inside the kid's and for her surprise Eve didn't looked away.

"I had no other choice, and I'm sorry for that." She made a pause. "I'll get going. A battle is happening and it's better if I go help his father. At least, before I end up losing my control too." Eve frowned at that, but she got what 'it' wanted to say; she could feel the battle outside after all. Erasa and Sharpener looked worried, but in the end nodded; if 'Videl' was telling them to go, they should let her go.

"Just… take care." Sharpener said with a sad tone, and an equal sad smile came to the brunette's lips.

"I'll take care of her body as much as I can." Getting now up from the bed, she walked to the windows and flew away after opening them.

"Everything will be ok, right?" Erasa asked to no one in specific.

"I really hope so." Eve answered.


Gohan was frustrated. All his men were defeated so easily that his angry grew from deep inside him. A new power started to rise with his being as he watched the five fighters fly to him. With a deep breath he powered up to super saiyan; his hair was still gold, but his aura was as dark as his eyes, that were now all black. He felt his 'target' coming in their way and a smile crossed his face; talking to 'it' was the best decision. Goku looked at his friends as he felt 'Videl' coming to them; he was sure they felt it too and it didn't really mean something good.

"I'll fight him. The rest of you go meet Videl, she's coming here and I don't know if it is a good thing at all." They turned to him for a moment before nodding, but he decided to talk again. "Vegeta, stay here too. I might need help." The prince rolled his eyes.

"Right…" His tone was sarcastic, but Goku knew he was waiting for a good fight afterwards.

"Move only after I attack him." Piccolo, #18 and Kuririn nodded. With a fast yell Goku powered to super saiyan 2, he used all his power. 'I need to finish this as fast as possible.' Without warning he dashed forward, hitting Gohan right on his chin. The three warriors speeded away, following the just made plan. As his enemy recovered from the hit Goku didn't let him think for a minute. Spinning in midair the full saiyan used his leg to hit Gohan's ribs, but the blow was easily caught. Not giving a chance, Goku put his hands forward and charged a ki blast right on the boy's chest, hitting it with success. The impact let his leg free and using instant transmission he showed right behind his son. With fast movements he charged another ki blast.

"Kamehameha!" It hit Gohan fully, sending him to the ground bellow. Vegeta was watching all with narrowed eyes. 'Kakarot wasn't lying… but I think he can still develop further. No. I know that he can.' The prince looked at the ground when a snarl came from the crater that the boy's body made after falling down. A peak of power went out of the hole; it sent the two full blood saiyans a shiver down their spine.

"That can't be good. Need a hand?" Vegeta said looking at Goku, who was looking at him with a smile, making the prince sweat drop.

"Not yet! I want to fight him a little bit more!" Vegeta tickled his tongue; he wanted to fight that awesome power too. He was a saiyan after all! Gohan's energy stabilized and in a minute he was right beside Goku, whose eyes widened; it was faster than he expected. The man felt a kick on his waist, together with punches on his face and torso. He couldn't block the hits, and it frustrated him. With an urge he powered up, sending a few punches aiming for his son's ribs. The movement seemed to work, as Gohan stopped attacking to avoid them, getting a little distance from him. 'Strange… he could block it easily at the speed he is showing… something's off.'

"So you are the one who abandoned us." The voice was as deep as ever and Goku stopped his upcoming attacks, crossing his arms on his chest he looked a bit confused.

"Who exactly did I abandon? I remember that I was very clear when I said why I wasn't coming back." Vegeta let his own hand slap his forehead; Goku was really something to stop a fight to talk about nonsense. Gohan's laugh echoed in the air.

"You abandoned us and your family. Just because you explained it, it doesn't change the fact of what you did." Now Goku frowned and pouted; that wasn't right.

"No. It changes." Vegeta rolled his eyes 'Such an idiot! This is not the time for talk!'

"How so?" Gohan seemed annoyed; his ki grew faster before coming to a normal level, matching Goku's, whom was still with a deep frown. Vegeta sighed; that wasn't going the way he wanted to.

"Just fight you two! This isn't going anywhere anyway!" The prince's annoyance raised the highest level, not that his own limit was too big. Powering up he headed to Gohan, who got hit straight on the face but for the saiyan surprise he didn't move. Cursing under his breath Vegeta turned super saiyan two, and the fight restarted. For a few seconds Goku stood there, blinking his eyes in shock at his friend's outburst, but soon he powered up and entered the fight. He wasn't pleased to not be able to fight alone; at least it was exciting his saiyan blood.


As Kuririn, Eighteen and Piccolo flew further they could hear the fight behind them. The trio stopped for a minute, looking behind with concern; Vegeta had joined the fight too and that just could mean something bad.

"Let's go. We need to find the girl." #18 said, but Piccolo shocked his head.

"Don't need to. She's already here." A strong ki, not as big as Gohan's, stopped right in front of them; Videl looked at the trio with not much of emotions. After a deep breath she decided to talk.

"I need to go to Gohan." Kuririn frowned; was that a good thing? With crossed arms Eighteen was the one who decided to speak.

"Why you need to go to him? So that you can help that… thing finishes off earth?" Piccolo looked at her surprised; the android was showing emotion? Videl sighed.

"No. At least, not until I can resist his control. I, as was Gohan, was subdued by my inner demons. The Evil can just possess someone if their psychological isn't really… how I should say…" She made a pause, her features serious. "Straight? Yeah, that can be it. If there's something that is buried inside our being, he'll explore that and eventually we will be subdued." Videl looked at the trio and raised an eyebrow; the human, android and namekian held with a serious frown. Gohan indeed had inner demons.

"So, how you plan to help him?" As Piccolo talked the girl blinked; sure she knew she could convince them with the truth, but she was sure they would at least make more questions.

"You guys believe in me?" Her eyes widened in surprise. Kuririn raised an eyebrow.

"You're telling the truth, aren't you?" She blinked before a nod.

"Yes I am. But I didn't know you guys would believe in me so fast…" Eighteen sighed annoyed.

"Just tell us how you'll help him already!" The blonde was as short tempered as Vegeta, and Kuririn giggled; he loved this side of his wife too.

"First we have to wake him up." The trio blinked; he was awake no?

"Isn't he already, you know, awake?" Kuririn said scratching his bald head. "I mean, he's fighting Goku and Vegeta right now." Videl sighed and crossed her arms on her chest.

"That… isn't really him. Evil has the upper hand over Gohan's conscious. We need something to awake his mind, but we can't take too long. As we speak Evil is feeding himself with his energy and self being. At some point, even if we do manage to separate them, he'll be an empty shell." Piccolo had shock showing on his features; he couldn't let his pupil, his friend, turn up worse than he already had.

"Let's go. We can find out how to do it there; we are wasting time!" He powered up and headed to the battle, being followed by Videl, Kuririn and Eighteen soon enough.


Blood was all over the face of the three individuals on the fight. Even with the two full blood saiyans joining forces it was a tough battle. Gohan had the upper hand, if it was only one of them the fight would ended a few minutes ago. The teenager smiled evilly, his naturally evil being and the half saiyan blood he now had was all he needed to love a good fight. He blocked a fast kick that aimed his head coming from Vegeta, grabbing the leg of his attacker Gohan spun just to release the prince on Goku's body, stopping an upcoming attack.

"Get out of my way Kakarot!" Vegeta said while punching the other saiyan on the face. Goku sighed.

"Can you just stop?! We need to do this together!" He shouted at the prince but the man was already charging at his son a ki blast. Goku sighed; that wasn't working at all. 'Should I use that?' He took a deep breath while thinking. 'That form can easily stop him but… I'm sure he can go to that level too. He's my son after all.' Cursing under his breath the full blood saiyan took a deep breath seeing Vegeta being thrown at the ground with a brute punch on his back. 'Seems like I don't really have a choice…' He then let out a slow breath and concentrated on his own ki, releasing it as fast as possible he reached super saiyan 3. That got both attentions, Gohan's and Vegeta's. The prince cursed out loud his 'friend'; yelling something about "you were holding back all this time you stupid low class". A sharp laugh could be heard coming from Gohan's mouth and it made Goku frown.

"You really are something else! But…" He grinned, his face full of madness. "That's not something new. We, our body, know how to achieve that level too." Goku blinked; that couldn't be something good. Gohan started to raise his ki, the earth started to shake, the air pressure got heavier. It took a few seconds, but he also turned super saiyan 3.

"Shit." Was all Goku said before being attacked.
