Chapter 9

~~~~

My daughter...this entire time...she was my daughter. And I didn't
even notice the resemblence.... He thought bitterly. Usagi was
still standing next to Trunks, having just told the rest of them the
truth (and given Goku his medicine)...My own daughter....after all
I did to her...She still saved me.

He closed his eyes. Usagi....little Usagi...not so little anymore...She
had been 16 years old when he had last seen her...and she had
grown up...Spent the last two or so years with Goku...

He scowled. That 3rd class Saiyan had not only become a Super
Saiyan before him...but spent the last TWO years training HIS
daughter...And that made him angry. Who was HE to train his
daughter...especially Usagi. The girl who would have given her life
for any one of them...

"Usagi." Vegeta opened his angry eyes and looked at the silver-haired
girl.

She looked at him, straight into his eyes. Her silver eyes still held
everything they had when he had first seen them...but it...wasn't until
then that he noticed...she was still a Super Saiyan. Why? How? He
didn't know...

"Yes, Vegeta? Father?" She whispered coldly...She wasn't sure if he
would accept her...not after the way he had rejected her on Namek.

"We're leaving." He said, and her eyes widened...

"Um..and where are we going?" She whispered.

"To train." Usagi blinked...then nodded.

She turned to the others, including Trunks. "It appears that I have...a...
previous engagement. I'll be back as soon as I can..." She looked at
Trunks...hugging him. "I'll miss you, Trunks...Train hard."

"You too..." He whispered, then looked at his father. He wouldn't stop
them....if Vegeta wanted to train with Usagi, then Trunks wouldn't stop
him...

The others watched as Vegeta lifted up off the ground, Usagi following.

Two years later....The day the Androids arrive....

"This isn't them..." Trunks whispered angrily. (he's now 18...and Usa
is 20) Standing before them were Androids 19 and 20...one was actually
Dr. Gero.

"What do you mean, it's not them?" Krillin asked.

"Exactly what I said..this isn't them...the Androids in the future
different...I don't know why...but when we came back in time, Usagi and
I must have disrupted the timestream a little." His eyes narrowed. Which
reminded him. Usagi and Vegeta had been missing for the last TWO years!

He glared at the Androids. Goku was currently fighting 19...and it wasn't
a winning battle either. His energy was being drained. And to make things
worse, he was in pain. The virus was attacking him...

"We have to help him!!" Piccolo said and rushed forward as 20 sent a blast
towards them. It never touched him...but he was thrown away from it by
some unknown force.

20 smirked. "That was *too* easy." Then, the next thing he knew was he
was being punched into a mountain....19 was tripped and thrown over towards
20.

"You!" Piccolo glared at Vegeta. "It was YOU that stopped me."

Vegeta smirked from where 19 had last stood.... "Only *I* will kill, Kakarot..."
He said with a smirk...his blonde hair and green eyes filled with energy and
power.

Standing where 20 had been was Usagi...now 20 years old... The years with
her father had taken their toll. She looked much stronger, and her eyes held
a look very similar to Vegeta's...She was very intimidating as her entire body
glowed silver...her eyes and hair...She glared at the Androids. "You aren't
them..." She whispered coldly, angrily. "These aren't the same Androids,
father..."

His eyes narrowed slightly. "It doesn't matter...an Android is an Android...
and either way, I'm going to destroy them."

Usagi nodded. "Be careful, we can't since their power levels. And it
appears they are capable of draining energy." She turned towards the
Zfighters for the first time since she arrived back, nodding at them.
"Yamcha...take Goku to his house. Give him the medicine...and hurry." She
whispered coldly.

Yamcha nodded, knowing that it wouldn't be wise to disobey her...

She turned back towards the Androids and Vegeta. "They're all yours,
father." She said with a smirk....

Trunks stared at his sister. What had happened to her? Was this what
happens when someone trains with Vegeta? Obviously all the traits she
had inherited from her father had come out when she spent enough time
with him.

They all watched as Vegeta quickly decapitated 19. All but Usagi had
stunned looks on their faces...Then 20 decided it would be better if he
ran away from them. Usagi's eyes narrowed slightly. "We must follow
him..." And the two Super Saiyans took off after him, a second later,
the others did as well...

Soon, Trunks caught up with his sister and father. It was silent...until
Usagi broke the silence. "Trunks, was it just me, or did Android 20
look a little like Dr. Gero."

"Yes...I..I think you're right."

She nodded to herself. "Isn't it true that 17 and 18 destroyed Dr. Gero
when he activated them?"

"Right again...What point are you getting at?"

"Dr. Gero named his Androids from when they were created. Obviously,
he's already created 17 and 18...he just hasn't activated them yet. If he
was in trouble, I'm pretty sure the first thing he would do was activate
them...and because of the changes already made to the timeline...we can't
know for sure if they will be the same strength they were in our time."

"Meaning they could be weaker?"

Her eyes flashed slightly. "Or stronger...."
