Android 20 slipped out of the grasp of our heroes; he did not detect them following as he realized they relied to much on their ability to sense Ki. "Fools, not training their eyes to pay attention to their opponents. Now to return to my lab where 17 and 18 are. Those updates should have proven to finally fix their rebellious actions. The elder Android flew, having no need to hide himself in the rocks and rubble, and beelined it straight to one of his hidden labs.

-Our Heroes-

"That is no way to speak to your mother!" Chichi exclaimed with a mix of shock and fury. "Young lady, I don't know where you get this attitude. But I will not have any of it."

"Oh yeah, Well Daughter like Mother. You think just because your mother to my past self that I have any care of what you say? I am busy trying to fight for my life on a nearly daily basis, these cloths are light and easy to move in. What do I care if they show a little skin?" Ashe growled back.

"As amusing as it is watching you two bicker, can we move on to something more important." Raditz finally chimed in, the two women instead turning their cheeks from each other and Vegeta seeming to enjoy the little argument. "Such as, where did 20 go? And what do we do now."

"Well, can you guys describe them at all? I can try to use my system for face recognition here at Capsule Corp." Bulma's voice announced from Tarble's scouter.

"I can do one better then just describe." Yurin said as she pointed to the ground, everyone following as they were confused by Yurin's statement. The witch landed on the ground and drew a circle with the toe of her shoe. "Ki Ko Ka, Hon Ha Hap." Yurin chanted as the ground in the circle rose, and shifted to form a dirt status of 20 and 19. "Can you see them well?" She asked as Ashe looked unsure of who she made, having never dealt with them in the first place.

"Bulma, are you able to get a clear view?" Tarble fidgeted with his scouter as he turned on visual feed option for Bulma to look through.

"Yeah, your coming in." Bulma said as she looked over the old man status. She hummed as she looked over the feed. Trunks hollered in the background vocally, for her attention but Bulma held to what she was looking at. She felt she knew who it was but she had been working so much on other projects that she could not pin point it. "Give me one moment." She captured the face, and pulled a facial recognition program.

"My dear boy, your mother is quite busy helping keeping the world safe." Dr. Briefs' voice came through the comm as Trunk mumbled something. "Go play with Grandma, I think she was baking cookies. You might sneak one before mama finds out." He dotted over his grandchild before the toddler ran off to try and get a cookie. The elder docter then looked at the screen. "Who would bother make a Dr. Gero statue?" He asked as he pulled a cigarette out from a pack and lite it as the toddler was out of the room.

"Dr. Gero? Dad you know him?" Bulma asked, before her brain clicked. "Dr. Gero! The robotics expert!?" Bulma's computer chimed as it confirmed that the name matched Dr. Gero most closely to anyone else on her database. "Guys, he is Dr. Gero."

"Woman your saying things like we know what your talking about." Vegeta yelled.

"Yes, Bulma. Who is Dr. Gero, and if it is him where is he mainly located?" Tarble knew they were running out of time and risking giving him time to go into hiding.

"Sorry, I am just surprised he is one of the androids. Though I guess not one of the ones we were warned about. He is a genius, though a complete jerk at the same time. He had labs in the past that he used all over the place, but recently he went into hiding. It is rumored he took residence near North City, converted some cave into a lab just outside of time." Bulma explained.

"North City, got it." Tarble responded, and in a moment the group already powered up and began to move toward North City. "Let us hope we are not too late."

"Too late for a real challenge." Vegeta added with a smile.

"Auntie Yurin, do you think you can summon my sword to it's sheath?" Ashe asked as she flew by her, her sheath held out and showed the vacancy in it.

"Oh, that is right, I am your Aunt. That is a little weird, but not while I am on the move. We are in to much of a rush." Yurin said and saw Ashe bite her lip. "But give me the sheath and I will summon it the moment I can, shouldn't be more then a few moments." Offering her hand, Ashe blushed lightly as she saw Yurin's smile. Ashe handed the sheath over and burst forward to rush forward, vegeta joining her as they both became super saiyans to rush forward.

-Gero-

20 accessed his lab, having slipped through the grasp of his opponents. "Fools will find themselves in the death grasp of my creations." He spoke as he took up the control switch for android 17 and 18, not ready to risk just activating them. First activating android 17's pod, the large pod opened as the young man's eyes opened slowly. "You have awoken, 17."

The young black-haired boy stepped free of the pod; eyes slightly shifted. He took notice to Dr. Gero holding the control switch. A face without emotion turned to Dr. Gero. "Good Morning, Dr. Gero." 17 said as his piercing blue eyes focused on him.

"You are being quite polite today." Dr. Gero said with a smile, believing his updates to their programming. It was perfect timing for them to become obedient. "I will wake your sister now."

"Of course, my creator." 17 said, monotone as he spoke. He watched as Dr. Gero activated the pod with his blond sister.

18 exited her pod as well, a quick glace confirmed Dr. Gero having the control switch. "Good morning, Dr. Gero." She said with a monotone voice as well. "I see you mechanized yourself."

"Yes, Eternal life seemed to be in grasp by doing so." Dr. Gero could not help but to enjoy the fact his creations were following orders. "After the Infinite Power Generators first cause you to be too powerful to control, I was worried that the updates would not bring you more under control." Victory was coming closer and closer.

Without the group just outside the doorway, Gero began to prepare for the next attack. The plan would be to attack Capsule Corp, where Goku most likely would be to heal, and with his friends out looking for him… it meant Goku would have minimum protection from the android menace. But with his attention stolen with his plans, 17 and 18 found an opening. 18 suddenly placed a swift kick to knocked the doctor's head off, 17 snatching the remote as the body fell.

"Looks like our good doctor can not tell when we are faking sister." 17 said as he stepped closer to his head. "Seems he was a weaker model, didn't even give himself a infinite power generator from what I can tell."

"Your right, he must have thought it would be to much for his brain. Go figure he is fine doing it to us." 18 said as she walked to a pod laid to the ground. "And it looks like he did it to this big guy too."

"No, don't! Do not touch him, he… he is defective and will destroy everything." Gero yelled through his mechanical vocals. His complaints ended as 17 crushed his head.

"Sorry, we are not taking orders. You voice had annoyed me so much; I just could not let it keep going." 17 said as he stood and looked to his sister. "Let's let him out, our unknown brother should be fun to play with"

"Don't have to tell me twice, the doctor made me curious." 18 leaned over to activate the pod, the door slowly opening and the blond android kicked it open. Inside the large android 16 opened his own eyes and sat up.

"Well hello, big guy." 17 said as he moved to stand in front of 16. The large android was quiet. "Dr. Gero said you would be destroying anything…" 16 continued to remain quiet. "Anything to say to that." 16's attention brought to 18. "Well, we were programmed to kill Son Goku, are you the same."

"yes." 16 finally answered, 17 laughing as he finally got an answer.

"Well, it would be wrong for us not to fulfill our sense of purpose as mechanical beings. Come on, lets go find him." 17 said as 16 nodded. 18 sighing as 17's little smile told her that this was going to be annoying, the androids leaving the broken body of Dr. Gero on the floor and opening the hidden lab door.


16, 17, 18 are now activated, and are heading out to find Son Goku! Will the heroes find them before they leave? Will they be able to handle the threat? Or will they now have to play cat and mouse before Son Goku is in real danger! Lets find out next Chapter!
