Chapter 21- Revenge…

Goten let out a shaky breath as he stood in front of the braided android showed no sign of fatigue. Said android smirked before crouching down to Goten's level. They had been at it for weeks and weeks, and Goten has shown great progress, though he is still not at the level that 28 and 29 need him to be.

"Yo Goten, not bad." She chuckled as she held her hand out to him. Goten grinned and took her hand, letting her pull him up. 28 chuckled to herself, seeing Goten rubbing his now sore arm. "Yo sorry for that hit to yo arm."

"Oh, It's fine. Can't have training without bruises." Goten grinned. Feeling a presence approaching, he looked over to see 29 walking up to them. 28 glanced at Goten then to the direction that Goten was looking only to see 29 with a thoughtful look on his face. "What's up 29?"

29 stayed silent, only raising her suspicions, "I….don't know…" He said to the tall android. "I just have this strange feeling. Like something horrible has just happened." This brought a strange and tense air around the three warriors.

"Horrible?" 28 questioned. "That's a strong word to use dawg."

"I know but….It's the only way that I can describe this feeling. I'm sure but….it's just that I can't shake that something outside of here has just recently happened….and that it was defiantly not good." 29 muttered.

"Do you think that we should go back?" Goten asked. Truth be told, he did not want to leave just yet but if something bad happened outside of the Chambers, he was willing to cut his training short to help his friends and family in any way that he could.

28 shook her head. "Nah, 27 holding down the fort." She stated. "Plus all yo otha friends should be handlin things if somethin bad goin down."

"I guess you're right about that…." Goten muttered, still feeling slightly concerned for his friends outside the Chambers.

"Besides we can't just go cause of a feelin." 28 crossed her arms. She too had a spontaneous bad feeling that came out of nowhere. It was like someone died or something…..But she knew that it could only that, a feeling. And to stop this training from just a feeling would not be the smartest choice. "Goten, five minute break then back here." Goten nodded and ran off to the temple, leaving the two androids to themselves.

"28….."

"I know 29, but we need to do this…" She sighed. "I ain't one to go on just feelins you know."

"Yeah but, this feeling isn't normal." 29 touched his heart. "I'm afraid that….something might happen that…."

"Ain't nothing gonna happen 29." She interrupted. "27 and 26 got things in control." 28 said with confidence. Though she and 27 were never the best of friends, some might even say that they hate each other. She knew that he was no weakling and that he would protect 26 with his life. Old memories that she thought were gone surfaced to the open, reminding her that 27's silent protective nature towards 26 could at times blind his own judgment, but she was not worried about that. He may not look like or even act like it but she could tell that he changed. He was not as violent as he was before; he was calmer, less hostile. He was something that she never thought he could ever be, and she was actually glad about that. So she was not as worried as 29 when it came to this strange feeling that dared to try and interrupt their training.

"Well you seem to have full confidence in 27." 29 chuckled.

28 nodded. "That lil bitch may get on my last nerves but he ain't no push ova, he got things in check. Plus 26 ain't no push ova eitha so she should be cool as well, maybe a lil bit distracted by her man but what ya gonna do?" She chuckled before turning her body to the direction of Goten. "Betta get ova there before Goten thinks that I'm playin." 29 nodded and followed 28, still thinking about the strange feeling in his stomach that refused to go away. 'I hope that everything is alright.'

Yamcha looked up at the large moon that hovered over them with a heavy heart; flashes of what happened earlier flew through his mind like a marathon of a less than entertaining show or movie. How could this have happened? Of all the people to go…..why did it have to be them? They had done nothing wrong. They were good people, kind and caring, sure they may have worked for the Red Ribbon Army but why would Karma chose something like that as the reason for their demise? The look on 26's face…..the hurt….the pain….he hated to see her like that; he hated….He shook his head with his fist balled at his side. 'Fortissimo…..' Yamcha growled as the bastards face flashed in his mind. All the young man wanted to do was to go and take that monster down. He had caused 26 too much pain, too much fear. At this time she was not even speaking to anyone….he broke her spirit. The light that was once in her eyes had vanished into the wind…falling into the abyss of darkness, never to rise again. To see her like that was like a thousand times worse than anything he has ever experienced in his life. It was like something in him was dying slowly. He was so into thinking into his own feelings that he did not notice the presence of his blue haired friend approaching him.

"Yamcha…." Bulma said calmly, awaking the man from his thoughts. He glanced at her for a moment before looking back up at the moon. "How's 26 doing?" She said as she moved next to him.

"I….don't know actually. She's just so…" He sighed. "I don't know what to do." He had no idea how to bring back the light that was hers. How could he return the lives of one of the first humans that showed her any kindness? They were like the mother and father that she never had. She created a special bond with them that and now thanks to Fortissimo, the bond has been broken and shattered.

"Trust me I know how she feels…..having someone you care about taking from you…." She said softly, the memory of Vegeta sacrificing himself in his attempt on defeating Buu long ago. "Just give her some time…she should be fine. I'm not saying that she would be good in a matter of minutes. In fact I cannot say that she will ever be the same but….the wounds will feel eventually." Yamcha glanced at Bulma before sighing.

"I know that but….still I hate seeing her this way. It's killing me that she's suffering in there and I can't do anything to help her….I…." Yamcha said with frustration bursting out of his voice. Seeing Yamcha like this was defiantly something she thought that she would never see. Yamcha was the wild guy, the one that you could always see smiling. Never has she ever seen him so disturbed before. She never saw him worried for someone as much as he is worried over 26…..'He must really love her….' She thought with a smile.

Bulma gently touched his shoulder. "You can be there for her. Let her cry on your shoulder, let her release all that anger and sadness that she's feeling." She tried to comfort him. "This is not a time where things could simply be fixed in just a few words. She needs someone to comfort her, to tell her that everything is going too alright, even if she doesn't believe you. Just to hear those words would be enough for now. You need to give her that hope." Yamcha looked at Bulma for moment, soaking in all the words that she said to him and nodded.

"I know…." He finally spoke. "I know but…I'm scared, what if I say something that….that makes her hate me. I don't know how to talk to someone who has just lost one someone let alone two. Especially people that were as close as those were to 26." Yamcha complained before looking down at the ground. "She doesn't even want to see me anyway. You saw the way she ran off, the way she cried away. I ran after her and I tried to talk to her but she forced me out, even 27 tried and she did the same thing. She doesn't want to see anyone."

"She just needs time." Bulma giggled. "Let her soak in the information before approaching her, eventually she'll want to talk to someone, trust me." Yamcha tried to give the blue haired woman a smile but could not fine the ability to yet. His mind was still on the girl crying within the temple. He wanted to believe the words that she had just given him, Android 26 eventually return to be the Android that he fell in love with. But she looked so broken back there, like nothing could fix her, that no amount of words would be able to relieve her off the pain of knowing that the old couple that took her in not long ago has left this world….no….were taking from this world by a crazed monster. He needed to see her once again. He could not wait and see when or if she would open up to him. Bulma saw the conflicting emotions that were battling within Yamcha and sighed. She knows it must be hard for 26, losing people so close to her. She also knew that it would not easy, accepting their death but she knew that it was possible. That thinking about them, knowing that they were no longer alive, was never going to go away but it would not hurt as much; that the memories that you have with them would keep them alive in your heart would help her return to who she was before. She just hoped that Yamcha would start to think in that light as well.

This pain…..this everlasting pain that refused to let her be continued to stab at her heart. She clutched her arms around her as burning tears fell down her face. How could this have happened? Why did this happen? This was not how things were supposed to be…..Android 26 continued to cry as the memory of what she saw on the television not long ago flashed into her mind. They had done nothing to deserve that…..they were kind people, loving enough to take her, a stranger and killer android, into their home and treat her like a daughter. They showed her kindness and love that she has never felt from a human before. Sure she had once felt love from the boy back then and the love that she feels now for Yamcha. But the love that they gave her was a love that she has only read in books that she had found within the Library of the base that she was created in. The love between a parent and their child, the kindness that they share, that was the love that she felt for them. They were the parents that she had never had the pleasure to have. Her heart felt like it was breaking, crashing into the pits of some dark ocean. Why do the people that she cared about always get taken away from her? She gasped as the memory of the man that she knew long ago returned to her. He was the first ever human to show her kindness….the first human that she ever felt close to. Like them he was taken away from her, stolen from her from fate. She wanted to scream, throw something, break something…..no….break someone….Android 26 looked up with her tear stained face. It was all cleared to her….It was his fault….Fortissimo. He took the closest thing that she had as parents away from her. She wanted revenge, she needed revenge. She needed to see that monster crushed, destroyed….killed. She could not wait for Goten any longer. She needed to take action now…that was the only thing that she could do. She felt something in her stomach; some animalistic feeling in her was like something she had never felt before.

Android 26 stood up from her position on the ground and stared up at the moon. Its light illuminated onto her skin, causing her skin to glow a haunted shade of white. This feeling…..this killing intent….was this the same feeling that 27 got….? Did she have the same blood thirst that he had? She gazed into the mirror that hung on the wall next to her and sighed. This is what she was….a monster….she can no longer run from what she was anymore. She stopped gazing at the mirror and turned to stare at the window. She closed her eyes, trying to sense the presence of the rampaging monster that dared to attack and kill two people that she considered a mother and father. She searched the ground, the air, and the trees that she called her close friends, anything that would lead her to the crazed killer. Finally sensing his presence she narrowed her eyes, complete focus burning within them. For years she has told 27 and 28 that vengeance was not the way. That nothing would come from seeking such a selfish desire….but what if they were right….she was told once that revenge is sweet….is that true? Was revenge that only way that she could seek peace….She shook her head. This was no time for thinking it over; it was time that she stopped thinking and starting acting.

Yamcha sighed as he continued to walk down the empty halls of the temple. Everyone has gone off to bed, that was except for him. The words that Bulma gave him were still echoing in her head. Maybe she was right…..Maybe he needed to let her get some time to get herself together before approaching her. If he was her he wouldn't want anyone to bother him either.

"26…." He muttered to himself. Suddenly out of nowhere he heard a loud explosion coming from down the hall, obviously awakening anyone within the temple. Only one thought came to his mind at that moment. '26…!' Panic came to his face as he raced down the hall and pass the clouded smoke that covered the once shining and marble covered temple. Covering his mouth so that the dust doesn't fly into his mouth, he pushed himself through the smoke and entered the room where it was most dense. He looked around and gasped seeing a huge hole in front of him.

"What the hell is going on?!" He glanced behind him to see Piccolo and the rest of his friends running towards him. Yamcha looked back at the hole and realization came to him.

"She wouldn't….." He muttered. 27 pushed passed the group and growled, already realizing what happened. With his fist balled he pounded the wall near him, creating a large crater.

Vegeta, who unlike Yamcha and 27, had no idea what was going on decided to speak out. "What the bloody hell happened?!" Bulma gasped with shock in her voice.

"Android 26….she…."

"She ran off to go and get revenge." Piccolo pointed out. Everyone turned to the Namekian, giving him their full attention.

"What?!" Vegeta shouted. "Why the hell would she want to do that?!"

27 growled and narrowed his eyes at the ground. "I knew that this would happen….."

"What are you talking about?" Videl asked. 27 continued to not look at them and sighed.

"26 is never one to fight out of anger. To her peace is the only true way of winning a fight. But….I'm going to assume that….the death of the old couple that took her in piled with the death of that man from long ago must have caused the latent killing intent that she tried so hard to control to become released." Yamcha was surprised at the look in 27's eyes, full of regret and pain. "Damn it…."

"So…she's going after Fortissimo." Piccolo concluded. 27 nodded and looked out into the sky.

"I have to go get her before she goes and faces Fortissimo. If she goes up against him, she isn't going to win." Yamcha felt his heart racing with fear at the thought of Android 26 going after that mad man. This was not happening; this had to be some nightmare that he was trapped in.

"But going after her would be suicide!" Vegeta spat. "You'd have to be-."

"I am not going to let her die..." 27 narrowed his eyes at the Sayian prince. "….And if that makes me an idiot then so be it…." He turned on his heel and shot into the air, leaving all of them behind. Yamcha glanced at Vegeta before joining 27 in the air. He was not about to let his true love go off and fight against that monster.

"Wait Yamcha!" Goku shouted before blasting off himself. Piccolo sighed and quickly followed after, knowing full well that nothing good would come of this.

Goten sighed as he looked up at the empty white sky of the Chambers that he and the other two androids have been training in. It was the end of the second month and he was dead tired. Transferring from 29 vicious training t 28's was a feat that no one should have to experience. The torture that he had gone through for the past two months was an excuse enough for him to just want to lie down and rest. But….for some reason he couldn't. He tried everything from counting sheep to trying to bore himself to sleep by naming the books that his mother had told him to read during his time within the Chambers. Yet her he was hearing the soft sounds of 29 and 28 sleeping. 'I wish that was me….' He thought. For some reason this weird feeling in the pit of his stomach would continue to keep him from achieving the sleep that he was craving for. He didn't know why but….something deep within him was telling him that something was about to happen outside of the chamber…Something bad. He wanted to go out and see what was happening but he knew that what 28 said earlier was true. He could not stop his training for something as small as a feeling. He had a duty that he needed to do, too many people were counting on him….He sighed once again and turned his body so that he was lying on his side. 'Why can't I sleep!'

New Androids

She looked around through the air, searching the ground for a sign of this man who dared attack her loved ones. She knew that what she was doing was wrong, that nothing good would come with what she was doing, but….this blood thirst that she has…this feeling of pure rage and anger. It was controlling her, consuming her, making her do something that she knew was incredibly dangerous. She needed to do this…..she needed to seek revenge…it was the only way for her to move on. She sighed as she continued to search around, hate and rage being the only thing that fueled her body.

New Androids

"27 looked around with anger in his eyes as he continued to race through the skies. He could only how long he has been searching, being that when he started the night sky was nothing but pure black with the moon being the only thing that brought some ounce of light but as he look around now he could see the small evidence of light coming through. What the hell was going on with 26? This was unlike her; this was something more of his field. Back there he had told them that the latent killing intent that she tried to hold back. But he himself did not believe the words that left his mouth. Could it be true….? Was the impact of losing the old couple combined with the held back feelings of that boy she met long ago so great that it brought out the true android that lied underneath her kind heart? He shook his head; he could not dwell on those questions right now. The only thing that he should be focused on was searching for his rogue sister before….

"27…." He looked back to see Yamcha following him and scuffed. Yamcha frowned and sped up so that he was side by side with the android. "We'll get her back….I promise…"

"hn, words mean nothing if there isn't anything to back it up…." 27 narrowed his eyes and continued to fly.

Yamcha sighed, knowing that talking with him was not going to help him. His mind instead went to the pink haired beauty that decided to seek revenge. He tried hard to not think too much into it, try to stay positive. But he couldn't this itching….breaking feeling of fear in his heart. He needed to get to her fast before she goes up against that monster. He could not let that monster touch her…that was something he vowed he would prevent. The mere thought of it actually happening was fuel enough for him to accelerate his speed, passing the android next to him.

Android 27 was surprised at the serious look in the human's eyes. This human….the feeling that this human shared with his sister was interesting to say the least. Though he will try to accept this relationship that he has with her, it will still bother him. But, seeing this guy so focused on getting there to stop 26 from doing something as stupid as going up against Fortissimo…..maybe he wasn't that bad.

"Android 27, do you know anything more about this Fortissimo guy?" Goku asked. Goku could tell that by how the situation is now….they might have to actually get into a fight that he knew that they were not ready for. But he could not back down; he needed to know who they were facing.

"Not much, Dr. Gero was good at keeping us out of the blue when it came to a monster like this. All that I know is that if 26 goes up against this guy….." 27 did not even want to speak of the outcome if she meets up with that man. Goku understood and nodded before glancing at Piccolo. Piccolo looked at the expression on Goku's face and knew that this was more serious than he thought and nodded. Looking back up ahead, Goku and the others sped up through the air, hoping to make it in time before it was too late.

Destruction, nothing but pure glorious destruction was all that Fortissimo could see. Looking around the now barren city brought a smirk to his face. He chuckled as he hovered above the now deserted city, his tail swinging around him like a snake.

"I can feel it…my power is slowly returning." He said to himself while taking in a deep breath. He could feel it, the power that truthfully belonged to him. The electric like shock that flowed through him was like and orgasmic thrill. He wanted more, needed more. But unfortunately he was still not up to par enough for him to absorb those androids. He just needed a little bit more time, and then he could finally achieve his true perfection, his true power. A smirk grew on his face as he felt a very familiar presence approaching him. He slowly glanced behind him with a smirk on his face. "So you finally decided to show after all. Have you finally accepted your fate?" He questioned as the person stood in front of him, their eyes full of nothing but burning hate and anger.

"You….." They muttered with venom in their voice. "You…killed them….."

"I'm sorry but you are going to have to be more specific." He chuckled. "I have killed many people in the past two days so names tend to escape me." This apparently hit a nerve to his opponent for as soon as he said that they shot straight at him, landing a fist to his face and sending him falling to the ground. A loud boom irrupted as the impact of his body caused a large crater be created into the ground. 'Tough cookie…..'

Android 26 had no idea what came over her but hearing him saying those words with such joy just caused her to lose it. She looked down at the monster underneath her and frowned, knowing that he was still alive and well.

"That was a decent shot." He said as he rose back into the air. "But you're going to have to do more than that in order to in place a bruise on my face." He chuckled evilly. Android 26 slowly moved back before charging energy into her hands.

"Fine…THEN TAKE THIS!" She shouted as she shot a bright and large Ki blast at the monster that had attacked nothing but the innocent and weak. Fortissimo smirked before teleporting just before the impact of the blast hit him, angering the pink haired android. She narrowed her eyes and scanned the area before shouting in pain as a hard object slammed into her back and sent her crashing into a nearby building, causing it to fall onto her. Slowly moving herself out of the rubble she looked up to see Fortissimo so smirking down at her.

"Was that all?" He asked. 26 growled before rushing at him. Fortissimo easily dodged her fist but was surprised to find that she slipped gracefully behind him and grabbed his tail. Using all the force she had she slammed both her and him into the ground below them, causing debris and smoke to spread around them, Quickly getting up, his tail still held tightly into her hands, she growled as she continued to smash his body from one side to the other before spinning around in the air and letting him go, throwing him into a building. Stepping back, she moved both her hands in front of her with narrowed eyes.

POWER BLITZ!" She shouted as she shot a large Ki blast of bright pink energy at the already smashed building, creating a large and destructive explosion. Feeling the anger still growing in her she cried out and continued to shoot barrage after barrage of Ki blast, not stopping for a second. The memory of how kind and caring they were to her….how much love they had showed them….brought a power that she never knew she had, a power that she feared.

"26!" She stopped her barrage and looked up to see Yamcha flying down to her. She couldn't help but blush as he grabbed her by her shoulders and stared deeply into her eyes. "What the hell is wrong with you?! Going off like that you could have been killed!" She looked down, knowing that he was right, and refused to answer him. "Do you have any idea how worried I was…how scared I was?!" She gasped feeling his body close to hers. "I was scared that….." He muttered softly. She felt her shoulder becoming damp and knew that he was letting out tears, which only made her feel even worse. She was about to say something when she quickly pushed Yamcha and her to the ground, sensing a strong blast heading towards them. She and him both looked up and saw a shadowing figure within the smoked area. Knowing what that figure was, she quickly grabbed Yamcha and pushed him away as a long and snake like snake shot from the dust and wrapped itself around the young Android's neck. Yamcha watched as 26 was hovered into the air and quickly glanced over to see Fortissimo walking slowly out of the rubble with a sinister smirk on his face.

"I think that I'm starting to get my power back, I might actually have enough power to….." He snickered. Yamcha growled and shot a Ki blast at the monster, only for him to deflect it with ease. This however gave 26 and opening as she, with all the force in her body, starting whip her neck around her, pulling him as well. She continued to whip her neck around until the hold his tail had around it weakened enough for her to break free, launching him away as well. Yamcha quickly ran over to his coughing girlfriend and gently rotated his hand on her back.

"26 are you okay?" She looked up at his concerned face and nodded.

"Yeah I'm okay….I'm sorry Yamcha." She gently touched his face.

"26….It's fine…."

"Oooooohhhhh how cute the loooovveee of the youth" They looked up to see Fortissimo chuckling, his haunting opera like voice sending shivers down their spines. "But I'm afraid it must end in tragedy."

A/N: Hey every one, I hope that you all liked this chapter, trust me it was hard knowing exactly where to cut this thing off so I just made it into a cliffhanger. Now the cover that I had mad for this story is only temporary until I think of something a little bit better. ANYWAYS, till next time : )
