Chapter 3

Both Android 19 and 20 took a small step back, their fear rising almost as fast as Vegeta's power, silently wondering where all his power was coming from. The Saiyan Prince was about to raise his power to tis limits when a strong hand with an iron grip clasped around Vegeta's tail. Goku yanked harshly on the furry appendage, pulling Vegeta back and into the other Saiyan. Goku steadied Vegeta by placing both his hands upon Vegeta's shoulders. When the shorter Saiyan was over the shock of Goku pulling on histial, Vegeta immediately shook Goku's hands away.
"Don't touch me!"
Goku looked at Vegeta with an apologetic grin, one hand going up to the back of his head, scratching lightly, 'Boy, he's mad.' The goofy Saiyan's obvious thoughts were broken as Krillin suddenly stepped up inbetween the enemies and his friends.
"Uh...Give us a second to work out a strategy, please?"
Android 20 laughed at the short, bald warrior, "Take all the time you need, we are in no hurry to kill you all."
Vegeta snarled as a high pitched laugh erupted from Android 19. The small group fromed a small huddle, except for Vegeta and Piccolo. The Namek stood with his back facing everyone, whether they were friend or foe. He stood silently, not taking any part in the discussion, for he already knew what the outcome would be. Piccolo closed his black eyes as he slightly began to meditate. Vegeta stood with his back to the huddle as well, though the angry and annoyed Saiyan Prince was facing the 2 Android, his black eyes narrow as a firece glare was upon his handsome feautres. Instead of having his arms crossed infront of his chest in his usual fashion, Vegeta was holding his tail in one hand while the other rubbed the slighlty sore spot, the spot where Goku had grabbed it.
"We need to form a plan of action." Tien muttered quietly to the others.
"Gosh, dad, do you think a strategic plan is the best course of action?" Gohan looked at his father, the full blooded Saiyan crouched there with his friends, only serious when about to fight.
"Its up to you, Goku..." Krillin smiled lighlty, "You know we will always follow you."
Goku grinned a goofy grin at Krillin and was about to say something, when Vegeta's angry voice rang out, loud enough for all to hear.
"Enough!" Yelled the now irritated Saiyan, his tial now lashing about behind him lightly, "I refuse to wait any longer while you idiots try to think up some stupid plan!" The huddle broke as Vegeta walked a little closer to the Androids, even Piccolo had turned around at the outburst. AGoku was suddenly infront of Vegeta, his arms stretched out beside him in attempt to stop the other Saiyan.
"How about this, Vegeta? I'll fight first and if I lose, then you can take over."
Vegeta smirked lightly, though was annoyed at the fact that he couldn't show of his power...yet, "Why do you get to go first?"
After smiling at the others, who all looked pretty worried, even Piccolo, Goku turned to face the Androids, "Because I'm the strongest."
Vegeta let out a small laugh and smirked evilly at the other Saiyan's back, "We'll see." He said quietly.

Android 20 just smiled, glad that he was finally about to get revenge on Goku for destroying the entire Red Ribbon army when Goku was byt a small boy.
"19, why don't you start things off?"
The pasty white skinned Android laughed with his high pitched laugh as both he and Goku took battle stances. The Saiyan warrior frowned lightly with seriously, clenched his fists tightly as he let out a battle cry, powering up. A brilliant gold aura surrounded his muscular boyd, his pwer rising incredibly high that both Androids took a step back. Goku's goofy black hair stood straight up on end, then turned bright gold, the long spikes swayed slightly as he continued on, his power still increasing. Kind, black eyes soon turned a sharp shade of emerald green as Goku finished his ascent to a Super Saiyan. Both Android and Saiyan stood still in the sudden silence, staring each other down. Goku's eyes shined with power while 19's shined with slightly amusement, still thinking that he had a chance. Goku blinked and in that small millisecond when Goku's eyes had closed, 19 dove straight for the Saiyan and was infront of Goku just as he finished blinking.

Goku raised raised his arm and used his forearm to block the blow 19 had tried to land on his jaw. When Goku tried to counter with his own punch to the face, 19 easily blocked it, just as Goku had. The two fighters continued to exchange kicks and punches, though neither had succeeded in landing a single hit. Suddenly, they both phazed out, only flashes of gold and white could be seen in the sky, the two of them moving with incredible speed. All movement stopped as Goku and 19 stared at each other once again. Goku seemed slightly out of breath which seemed a little odd to the spectators. 19 stood there silently, then suddenly dived towards Goku once again. The onlookers simply expected the Super Saiyan to once again the Android's attack, and were extremely shocked as the pure white fist struck Goku's cheek, causing the warrior to go down fast and hard. With a loud thud, Goku crashed to the ground.

"Dad!" Gohan shouted as he lept forward to aid his father, but a firm hold upon his shoulder stopped him. Gohan looked back at Piccolo in question. The Namek only shook his head back and forth lighlty as he released the small half Saiyan from his hold. Both Piccolo and Gohan once again rested their eyes upon Goku.

Goku pulled his body out of the ground as the Android 19 landed near by. The Super Saiyan kneeled upon the ground, one hand trying to steady himself as the other hand clutched at his heart.

"Piccolo, what's the matter with Goku?" Tien was looking a little worried. Krillin took a small step towards Goku, but didn't pass Vegeta, who was the closest to the battle.
"His power is getting lower, what's happening?" Krillin snuck a quick glance at the cold hearted Saiyan Prince next to him. Vegeta was ilent throughtout the entire fight so far. His face told of the carefully controlled rage burning within his tense body, his dark, mysterious eyes actually held a small amount of an emotion foreign to the Vegeta : Concern.

Gohan had kept his eyes glued to his father as Goku was up on his feet, only to be tackled to the ground by the Android.

And that's when Gohan knew what was going on.
"Its his heart!"
The others, other than Vegeta who continued to ignore everything around him but the battle, held dumbfounded expressions upon their faces.
"He's suffering from that heart virus that that boy told us about!"

Gohan turned to Piccolo as the Android wrapped his white hand around Goku's neck, the Saiyan warrior was helpless.

Goku's power was swiftly leaving him...he fell out of Super Saiyan.

Piccolo was instantly in the air about to help, when he was suddenly shot out of the sky by an unseen force. Android 20 was not inbetween the battle and the small group, smiling away.
"No one will interrupt 19 while he drains Goku's power."
"Drains his power?" Krillin was confused while Vegeta was becoming irritated. That was when Goku lost consciousness and Vegeta disappeared. Just as Goku's last drop of energy was about to be sucked out of his body, Android 19 was suddenly slammed away from Goku, a white boot pushed itself into 19's cheek. 19 righted himself as he fell back and landed shakily on his feet, a large bruise shaped foot print upon the side of his face. Vegeta landed gracefully next to Goku's body, and even though he was unconscious, he could still hear everything around him. Dark eyes looked down on Goku, then drifted to the Androids, who where now standing together.
"No one kills Kakarot while I'm around. Destiny has reserved that pleasure for me." Vegeta looked down at Goku again, then reached one white gloved hand down and took a hold of the front of Goku's gi, lifting him slightly into the air.
"Pathetic." With little effort, he threw the larger warrior to Piccolo, who caught him and gently set Goku upon the ground. Vegeta turned his attention to the Androids, keeping his black eyes upon them whilt the others gathere around Goku's limp body.

Gohan knelt down by his father, placed his hands upon his shoulders and gently shook him.
"Daddy!" His voice shook with heavy concern, "Please, wake up, daddy!"
Krillin looked down at Goku sadly, "Oh, Goku."
"Gohan?"
The small boy looked up to see Piccolo standing over him.
"Take your father home and give him that medicine."
Gohan nodded lighlty to the Namek, then wiped away a few stray tears with the back of his hand. He was about to pick his father up when Tien did. The 3 eyed human slung Goku'sbody over one of his shoulders.
"Let me take him. You're stronger than me, Gohan, they'll need your help more than mine."
Gohan nodded seriously, "I'm counting on you, Tien."
Tien smiled lightly at the boy, then took to the sky, flying towards Goku's home as he dared to. When Tien was out of everyone's sight, they all turned and looked at Vegeta. It was his turn.

Vegeta smirked evilly as he closed his black eyes and started to power up, letting out a loud yell. He powered up to his limits as a Saiyan, his power level soaring to unbelievable heights as he broke through the barrier that contained his power. A soft, though angry and powerful, gold hue covered the Saiyan's small body as the black spikes of his hair shined a bright gold. Vegeta's brown tail lashed about him angerly as the soft fur turned gold as well, his power still increasing, seeming never ending. His yell suddenly stopped as did his powering up. He stood there silently in glory and power colored gold and as the Saiyan Prince opened his eyes, a sharp, evil shad of a beautiful emerald green stared at the Androids. To say the least, everyone was shocked.

"Vegeta..." Krillin muttered in disbelief as his eeys never left the Saiyan wrapped in gold lightly, "He's...he's a Su...Super Saiyan!!"
Piccolo studied Vegeta's new form, determining how power the young Saiyan now had. His black eyes suddenly widened.
"He's stonger than Goku!" The others looked at Piccolo, then back to Vegeta.
"You're right, Piccolo...wow!" Gohan was slightly in awe, both Vegeta and his father were Super Saiyans, which meant one thing...he was next. Gohan smiled lightly. Krillin, however, was slightly scared now.
"He is on our side...right??"

Vegeta suddenly started laughing, having heard the panic within the bald fighters voice, though he remained silent, ever staring at the Androids.
"I will kill Vegeta now." 19 announced, lookin at Vegeta with a smile.
"Very well." replied 20, though he looked less happy than 19 was and took a step away from the other Android. Android 19 took a battle stance, Vegeta did not. The large, white Android laughed as he dove forward, fist outstretched infront of him, a punch aimed for Vegeta's face. The Saiyan Prince did not try to block...Vegeta did not make a move.
