Jero Ribbon's eyes were strained as he rapidly typed on his keyboard, his eyes strained from staring at his screen all night filled with equations and formulas.
He worked tirelessly; finally finishing the formula which had taken him ten years to complete was finally underway. Soon he would be able to make Android Seventeen and Eighteen... perfect.
The Bio-Energy he'd collected over the years from the Earth and his drones on other planets would fuel the twins' power and the new data he'd collected on the Z-Fighters would give them a further advantage. This time there would be no pests coming from the future influences events and his data.
The thought provided him with cathartic relief.
"The time is now." He thought aloud, the moment was prepared for. He lifted his head from the computer screen and looked into his reflection seeing his black top hat with the RRR ribbon logo, his ginger quiff, pale skin, red RRR bow tie, white shirt, tweed jacket and trouser mirrored by the protective one way glass in his metallic room.
In the other dull grey metallic room filled with black screens and the base of a sphere covered the roof and wires connected to twin white person-sized capsules, rounded protruding out at the top, straight all the way down. The RRR ribbon symbol under the greenish semi-spherical window, his Androids slept inside. The shoulder length black haired man stood eyes closed in the right coffin and the short blonde haired woman stood eyes closed on the left.
Below the white banner belted around the centre had a number scribed on each one.
17.
18.
Jero grinned, his finger hovered over the enter key. One simple press of this key would upgrade his Androids far beyond anything he had ever conceived; even Cell would pale in comparison.
"The Red Ribbon Revolution has won."
And with that he pressed the key.
There was a faint hum at first as the orb above began to glow yellow, followed by the buzz as the black screens lifted allowing bright light to follow out.
The room began to roar with noise as the orb below began to grow so bright that Jero had to cover his eyes with his arm and then in one thunderous noise the light zapped through the wires and the capsules electrified before the light erupted and consumed the room -
Judgement Saga:
52. Boot Camp
Day 1 – 2 days before Jero attacks.
"Okay," The aged master said with his hands on his hips. "So you've all seen me and the others use Ki. Since you've seen what it looks like, it shouldn't be too much of a problem showing you how to let it out."
"It works a little like this," Goku sat cross-legged with his hands facing each other as the Impulse's watched as bright yellow sparks began to dance between the Master's hands. "You slowly, draw out the power within your body. Master Roshi always taught me by saying it comes from your heart or in my case my gut and then you push it down through your arms to your hands and out your body." The power grew until a bright orb expanded in his hands, Goku smiled letting everyone watch for a few more moments before he stood letting the energy dispatch.
"Okay now you all have a shot at it." Goku grinned, with his hands on his hips again as Eugene, Mako, Deval, Pebble and Bliz all sat cross-legged with their hands parted in front of them, concentrating on their hands. "Remember sit still, relax and focus on pushing the Ki from your heart through your arms and out through your hands."
Mako focused and the Ki emitted in his hands like Goku's, though it wobbled and shook in his hands, not perfect but it was there.
"There you go Mako, you've done it ha, ha." Goku grinned chuckling.
Mako smiled, the light of his yellow Ki illuminating his dark skin. "Pan taught me a thing or two about Ki before all of this."
Eugene frowned, hearing this and watched as Deval's Ki began to emit, then Bliz's and finally Pebbles' began to spark. He grit his teeth trying to unleash his Ki, but only his usual transparent azure energy sparked. Not Ki.
"Arrgghhh," Eugene frowned, a lump built in his throat. He couldn't do it.
"Hey, you're forcing it. Your Ki won't come out if you're so tense you need to relax." Goku lectured. "Same for you to, Pebble." Goku pointed and the builder grunted.
"So, err, why do I need this again anyway?" Eugene huffed, losing faith in the task. "I can pretty much summon up an army, armour for myself and can fly with my Warp Star. So why do I need Ki again?"
"Well..." Goku scratched his head, thinking.
"Well from what I've seen you rely on your army too much," Deval stepped in. "That RRR Soldier found your hiding spot and would have killed you if I didn't help you out, ya know what I mean?"
"I..." Eugene looked away and clenched his fists, remembering the event. "I just wasn't ready that time. It won't happen again. But I guess I could learn to sense Ki that, err, would guess me a bit of an advantage."
"Sure," Goku sighed but smiled. "I guess we can try that and then you can learn how to use your Ki to its fullest potential."
The green liquid soothed her wounds from her intense training at 450x gravity.
Aprilotine felt her skin knitting up her wounds and she felt her powers growing more and more by the day. She was far stronger than she ever had been and the Zenkai boosts were a nice touch for her power gains.
Opening her eyes she looked through the blurry green waters, bubbles rose in front of her face from her breathing apparatus. The television screen showed the CTTV footage of the area outside of the RRR Headquarters, thousands of her disciplined RRR soldiers were setting up, their fighter jets ready for an all out attack alongside the soldiers within North, East and South City's against the Supers and the KG Soldiers of West City.
She couldn't wait to join in and engage in combat with the strongest of the Supers. She looked at her hand. Trembling, her new blood made her thrive for battle and she couldn't wait to fight the other Saiyans in West City.
Aprilotine frowned; she couldn't let this new blood consume her judgement. She had to remember the real reason she wanted to defeat the Supers.
Goten looked through the window, watching the hundreds of people in the back garden of Capsule Corp. The Impulses were training in one part with Goku and Vegeta who seemed to be yet again arguing with each other, in another part he noticed Pan and Videl sparring.
He had been in his room all day, his black hair was messy he was still depressed about yesterday's revelation.
Knock. Knock.
Goten turned and his brother walked in.
"Valese said you'd be here. She's worried about you and I am too." Gohan said getting straight to the point.
"Other than losin' my Super Saiyan transformation..." Goten sighed. "I'm fine, bro."
"Hey," Gohan smiled, holding out his left hand. "I understand how you're feeling, b -"
"Stop it, Gohan." Goten cut his brows lowered angrily. "Don't act like you know what I'm goin' through, especially you. You hate fighting; you get no thrill from sparring or training like I do. And unlike you I didn't get your godly potential or a hax ability to increase my power the angrier I get..."
Gohan stared. "It's true that I hate fighting. I don't particularly get the thrill like you and the others, but I know how you feel about it and I can't imagine what it's like to have your power taken away like that."
Goten sighed and looked up, closing his eyes. "It's the warmth, the power, the strength, the feeling that I can protect those I care about." He looked down and frowned. "I HATE the fact that it's gone. I feel so weak and helpless. I'm basically the Yamcha of the Saiyans now..."
"I didn't know I helped to raise my brother to belittle others," Gohan scolded. "I doubt dad or mom would be happy with your comment either,"
The mention of his mother cut into Goten, he looked away and bared his teeth. "Mom..." He uttered and looked away clenching his fist in front of him. "I can't believe she's gone." He fought back his tears swallowing.
"Neither can I, Goten." He walked up to his younger brother and placed his hand onto his shoulder, comforting him. "But let's not cry about it, she wouldn't like that. Instead let's focus our effort on beating Jero and the RRR in the next two days. Then we can finally live peacefully again and hopefully for a long time. We'll be with mom again someday, we'll be reunited I promise."
Goten stood silently before finally nodding.
"I want you to beat him, Gohan. You have to."
"I will." Gohan said. "After everything the RRR's put us through, I'll make sure they suffer."
Bra screamed with all might.
Her long golden erected hair stood tall like a roaring flame alongside her golden aura flaring wildly illuminating her tight pink crop top and short black leggings in a yellow hue. Azure lightning snapped, crackled and banged all around her sparking against the white wall which absorbed her Ki and converted it into energy for the city above.
She groaned baring her teeth as her body curled over, golden circular glow ran from her feet, up her torso and through her golden hair before she screamed again from all the strain, all the power.
More!
More!
More!
'Come on! Come on! Come on!' Bra inwardly shouted trying to keep a hold of the immense power around her as tears began to run down her face from the pain she was forcing over her body. "Arghh!" Bra groaned pushing. "Arrghhh!" She groaned again, her hair began to shift. It was finally happening!
Then she suddenly gasped and her aura snapped away as her golden hair fell back into its sweaty blue self falling down to her shoulders and stuck to her face, before her knees gave out and she fell to the floor.
With a grunt she rolled onto her back and panted staring up at the strong light above.
"Gravity returning to standard level," Said the robotic voice of the Gravity Chamber as Bra breathed relaxing herself.
"Dammit!" She sat up smashed the floor with massive thud. "Dammit," And again. "Dammit, dammit, dammit all!"
She knew Super Saiyan Three was what she needed. Not only would she be able to crush the RRR, but with training she could become the strongest on the planet, which she knew would honour her Father and repay her debt for what she did to his back during training that time. She winced; she didn't want to remember that.
"Why can't I do it...?" She slumped back to the ground again and screamed before beating her fist onto the metallic floor.
Videl rolled forwards and the back of her yellow boot whooshed past Pan who shifted to the side.
She twisted back to her feet blocking Pan's chop with her forearm and the two attacked each other with a series of kicks, knees, chops, punches, blocks and parries.
Pan dodged another punch from her mom who wore a pink shirt and black leggings as she continued her kicking assault against her daughter. Of course suppressing her powers to her mother's level was making this spar really fun for her.
It was obvious from her previous fight with Aprilotine that she needed to work on her control and concentration, which was the reason she nearly lost that fight despite her being the strongest of the two. So it obvious she needed to work on it here. It was also something that her Grandpa Goku had often chastised for during training sessions, but she was too stubborn back then and probably the reason why she couldn't best him as a Super Saiyan Two.
She dodged another punch from Videl and looked over at Krillin and Marron sitting on the bench talking with Roshi. She couldn't help but feel bad for her best-friend and her father; she wouldn't know what to do if she lost her mother Videl and didn't know where she –
"Arrghh!"
The pain searing strike to her kidney brought her violently back to reality. She held her side as Videl brought back her elbow and used the momentum from her twist to gain ground between her daughter and her.
"Quit daydreaming and fight or your grounded!" Videl yelled, her stance narrow, one foot reared behind the other with her fists clenched and pounced and cocked back her right leg at the last second and kicked her Pan across the face sending her spiralling through the air -
Pan twisted though and stopped herself on all floor before wiping the blood from her lip.
"Owwww," Pan moaned before smirking cockily, the water vapour in her breath visible in the cold air. "Sheesh, you're getting way too into this, mom."
"That'll teach you to stop underestimating your opponents. That Aprilotine wouldn't have stopped attacking then you know." Videl placed her hands on her hips. "And yeah... Maybe I am getting into this it's been awhile, and it's good give you the beating you deserve after making me worry about you when don't call me when I ask!" Videl shouted and charged forwards as did Pan.
Pan dived to the floor, spinning her leg and swept Videl from her feet who adjusted herself midair and rolled before springing back up and punched out only to be quickly parried by the grinning Pan before the two locked into another string of attacks.
The cold air whooshed past the mediating Uub making his mohawk slightly.
His head was bowed, eyes closed and on a closer inspection a pink hued outline emitted from his frame and hair which lifted slightly from his neck.
Inside his mind the scene played out, zooming rapidly past grassy lands, deserts, oceans and cities blurry in peripheral vision as he searched looking for Buu. It had been like this all day, searching every RRR Base that he knew looking for any essence of Ki emitted from his other self.
Finally he felt something calling out for him.
"Uub?" It was quiet, high-pitched echoing. "Uub?"
He reached out and the images in his mind zoomed forwards and he was taken to the RRR Headquarters which was surrounded by the large red wall and the large forest a few hundred miles away from Korin's Tower.
He briefly saw RRR Soldiers patrolling the area before the image zoomed down beneath the ground of the headquarters. Metallic twisting corridors and then he spotted a massive steel door with a calligraphic M printed into the secure steel door.
"Uub!" The high voice called off the panicked Buu, louder now.
The image zoomed out, but before it did another voice yelled out, the words pronounced perfectly, fluently, deeply, prolonged, a smarter voice.
"Well it's about time you started paying attention to me, Uub. Hey, wait? Where're you going?"
Uub opened his eyes. He knew where Buu was; he had found him and couldn't wait to tell the others. But, that last voice... It troubled him, who or what was it?
Uub shrugged it off. He couldn't afford to dwell on it, not now, not now that he knew where Buu was.
He got up, stretched off his stiff body before heading towards the door from Capsule Corp's roof.
The shinning bright light finally began to die down.
Jero lowered his arms and ran through the door to their room and gasped.
Android Seventeen's and Eighteen's white rounded coffins had been blown open, the doors hung off their hinges, smoke rising from the red glowing tops. Coated in a yellow light the one on the right stepped out first and the left followed.
Seventeen.
Eighteen.
The light dimmed around the two upgraded warriors who began to raise their heads, their ghostly blue eyes opening, their faces emotionless.
"Seventeen, Eighteen... You've achieved your perfection... Can you, hear me?" Jero Ribbon looked at them, with his hand in his jacket's inside pocket on his Sonic Surge pen-like device, fully ready to shut down the Androids should they go rogue. He wouldn't make that mistake again. He looked over the new Seventeen and Eighteen - the experiment had changed his Androids more than even he predicted.
They looked older. The bio energy had actually aged the two.
Then he realised this is what Lapis Termina and Lazuli Termina would look like had he not of conducted his Android experiment back then and stolen their lives.
Seventeen's face was sober, his head was heart shaped the jaw pointed, his light blue eyes fierce a hidden malice filled them, the eyebrows defined bulged out slightly underlined by his thin black eye brows. His black hair was longer, falling just below his shoulder blades, three locks of long hair fell over his eye, one on the right and two over the left.
His orange scarf hung tied underneath his hair hanging over his brown golden trimmed vest and navy blue spandex tightened around his abs and pectorals. It was cut off around his shoulders showing his deltoids and met with his golden wrist bands and gloved hands. His navy blue golden tipped boots met with his skinny jeans ripped over the left knee and stopped at his golden belt which had RRR logo printed on it in gold.
Eighteen stood at the same height as her twin brother, 5ft 9inches. Unlike her brother she had kept her soft features, her face heart shaped with her gold earrings hanging from her ear lobes. Her short blonde hair had grown now falling below her shoulder blades, her fringe ran up at the side running down the side of her face, twin locks fell down her face hanging over her blue eyes.
She wore identical clothes to what Jero had first given her. Her cowboy boots went up to her knees, decorated with golden heels and tips buckled around the brown boot with three gold bands around the top half around her Gastrocnemius'. Black leggings met by short blue skirt, with the same golden RRR belt as her brother's. A short blue denim jacket the sleeves cut off giving a ripped look. Grey fingerless gloves, golden wristbands and a short sleeved grey lined black crop top showing her cleavage.
"Yes... Jero Ribbon. I can hear you, Master."
Perfect Seventeen and Perfect Eighteen said in unison.
Hey thank you for reading the latest chapter! So now we finally have the Super androids appearing, allow a tad bit differently then the appearance in GT. I understand that Bio Energy has already been used with Imperfect Cell, but I thought it be nice to reference back to it and reuse it here. Super/Perfect Eighteen was inspired by this photo here, credit to the artist hsvhrt. Be sure to check it out!
