"Has anything changed?", asked Son Goten to himself as his dead-on black pupils pierced through his slowly opening eyelids. He sat up ever so slowly and hugged his knees to his chest gently. The sky was still dark, so it must have still been very early morning.
The only sounds he could hear were the faint airplane noises high in the sky. The young man continued to stare ahead at the town before him. "Could something have gone down while I drifted off?" His eyes lowered to the ground.
He never would have thought that fate could have been that cruel to him, having the androids appear in town at the exact point at which he'd have no real knowledge of it. Could that possibly be?
As Goten continued to stare down in despair, a devilish feminine voice came from behind him. "What are you thinking about?" Fuck! Goten instantly backflipped into a standing position, landing on an opposite side, just firm enough to face the new challenge. Android Eighteen.
She was dressed as she always had been when he had seen her. The 'classy teenage stylish killer' outfit. She laughed ever so tauntingly in a very quiet tone. "So...boy...none of your friends with you? Vegeta? Trunks? Maybe that girl?"
Goten's hands hung down at his sides, both fists clutched as he stared dead ahead at the female android. "I'm going to make you pay for all you've caused...on everyone. Just tell me...what the hell have you done with my father and brother?!"
She laughed a slight bit more loudly this time. "We had hours of fun with them. Their attempts to defend were amusing to both of us, but we just had to finish them off anyway after it got boring." Goten's ki was flared up like a rocket as his hair turned golden, his eyes taking on an angry shade of green.
"Damn you!!!" He charged right for the android and threw out a high sidekick that leveled her jaw and knocked her into the air. He tried to regain his control through all of this, but it was no use. He flew after her like a madman and seemed to dismiss all careful technique.
As he reached her in the air, he threw out a fist directly for her throat, but she alertly flew lower just in time and elbowed him right in the stomach, causing him to spin from her and clutch his ribs. The android then followed it up by darting over to him and sending a chop to the back of his head that caught him totally off guard, his eyes rolling back just before they closed shut, unconscious.
Eighteen caught him by the collar of his coat just before he fell, Goten then slipping out of the coat and falling down towards a bronze statue, smacking right off of it just before his inactive body took a tumbling spill to the floor.
The android held the boy's coat in her hand, looking it over. "What a repulsive thing." She then opened her other palm and fired a blast at it that disintegrated the entire thing in a matter of seconds.
Android Eighteen then took another look down to Goten's body on the ground which appeared totally still, and she tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear just before casually flying ahead toward the foggy town.
At a small warehouse near the opening of the town, three confused figures sat inside, the only thing lighting the inside being the small bit of moonlight that cracked through the windows. There they sat; ...Jotaro, Ayeka, and Ripper.
"So there are two of these androids?", asked Ripper in a scornful tone. Jotaro nodded slowly to him. "I don't know if you were able to get a very good look at them when they appeared, but one of them is a dark-haired boy and the other is a blond-haired girl."
Ripper took a look down at one of the blades in his hands. "When I'm finished with them, no one will be able to distinguish. Fuckin' cretins." Then, a small sound could be heard at the other end of where they were sitting. The sound of slight shufflings and falling cardboard boxes. Someone was there. Ripper and Jotaro instantly stood up, Ayeka's head turning to the source of the sound. It was abit too shadowed to know who it was, but whoever it was, they were coming closer.
