I don't own Dragonballz

"Yes, that's him. He told Goku 3 years ago when he first came."
"Oh." was all Tien could say.
"That guy who was running away... he looked really familiar... I'm sure my dad knew him or something."
"Well Bulma, how did he know him?"
"I'm not sure Trunks... wait... I know! That's Dr. Gero, I'm sure of it!"
"WHAT?????!!!!" Everyone stared at Bulma in complete shock.
"Yeah, that's him all right. My dad told me his lab is about 20 miles from here - but didn't you say he was killed, Trunks?"
"He was in my time."
"Well, things have changed. Goku is still alive, and so are most of us. Tell me Trunks, what did the androids from your time look like? If 20 is really Gero, chances are 19 wasn't even one of the original two androids from Trunks' time."
"There aren't any androids named 19 and 20 in my time, Piccolo. Their names are 17 and 18. 17 is a young boy with black hair and an orange scarf. 18 is a blond - beautiful, but deadly. The thing that scares me the most is their eyes. Looking at them is like looking at a cold icy death."
"So, from what you're saying, Gero's lab is within 20 miles, and 19 isn't one of the original androids?"
"Yes."
"Don't any of you get it by now??" Everyone stared at Vegeta. "He's gone to activate the other two androids. Why else would he flee to this area?"
"Why did he leave on foot then, smartass?"
"Because, chrome-dome, he knows we can't sense his ki and it would be harder for us to find him if he's closer to the ground!"
Everyone let the horrible truth sink in for a few moments.
"I'm going." said Mirari Trunks as he blasted off in the direction of Dr. Gero's lab.
*Those fools will never be able to find me, or my lab, unless... dammit! That was Dr. Briefs' daughter! She knows the whereabouts of my lab! Shit! * Dr. Gero started to run even faster. *Dammit, that purple-haired kid is gaining on me.* Dr. Gero sped up even more and eventually reached his lab. Meanwhile...
"Dammit, where is he??" Mirari Trunks was flying slower, hoping to spot Dr. Gero before he could activate 17 and 18. He wasn't getting very far, and Dr. Gero was nowhere to be found.
"Trunks!"
"Krillin! What are you doing?"
"Helping you, obviously. Bulma says Gero's lab is located in a cave or something. She doesn't quite remember-" but Mirari Trunks had already sped off leaving Krillin alone. *Some thanks I get. Yeesh. Everyone takes me for granted.* He flew after Mirari Trunks, with Vegeta and the others in hot pursuit.
Mirari Trunks stopped, then flew down towards a small cave opening in a tall mountain. The others followed close behind.
"HEY! I AM NOT GOING TO BE LEFT BEHIND AGAIN, DO YOU PEOPLE UNDERSTAND ME??" It turned out everyone had left Bulma behind, so she had to fly in her hovercraft - and she wasn't happy.
"Look woman, we're trying save the world here, and we don't need your bitching on top of all things."
"I don't even know why I bother to put up with you sometimes Vegeta, I just don't know."
"Probably because Yamucha cheated again."
"JUST WHAT DID YOU MUMBLE THERE KRILLIN??!!"
Krillin shook as he answered the tyrannic scientist."Um, er... ah... nothing... hehe."
"Good." Bulma stalked over to the hovercraft. "If you guys don't want me here, fine, I'll leave."
"Go with her, Gohan."
"But Piccolo! You guys might need me!"
"You should check on your dad, just in case."
"Oh, all right." Gohan trudged into the hovercraft along with Bulma and baby Trunks. They took off quickly.
"Why are you so mean to her?"
"Look boy, I have better things to do than listen to your mother complain. Now stand aside. I have to break open the metal doors on the inside of this cave." Vegeta powered up and fired a blast at the doors. For a minute it looked as if the doors were too strong, but then the blast broke through.
When the smoke cleared, there stood Dr. Gero, along with androids 17 and 18.
"What the hell..." said Vegeta and Krillin.
"No way are those two the androids. Trunks - those aren't them, right?"
"Yes Krillin, it's them."
"Impossible... they were perfectly normal three months ago..."
"What do you mean Da-"
Vegeta gave Trunks that was a cross between annoyed and murderouss.
"Er... Vegeta?"
"Much better. Remember when you completely spazzed out at the Burger King, yelling and screaming at those two people, claiming they were the androids?"
"Oh yeah... I guess I was right then."
"No way. No fucking way - they can't be androids. They just can't! Since when do androids ask for directions and then go on a date?"
17 and 18 had puzzled looks on their faces, wondering just what they had been awoken to.
"Do you have any idea what the little bald guy is talking about, 17?"
"I have no clue, 18. We have more important things to do, though."
"Right."
Out of nowhere, 17 proceeded to kick Dr. Gero across his lab.
"What are you doing?? I am your creator!"
"You aren't gong to put us to sleep again... old man." 17 viciously said before cutting off Gero's head. Unfortunately, Dr. Gero didn't feel like shutting up yet.
"You cannot turn on me! I forbid y-" His speech was faltered, for 17 jumped and landed on his head with a sickening crunch.
"Now that that's over, lets uncover 16, shall we?"
"Good idea, 18."
"NOOOO! IF THAT CREATURE GETS LOOSE IT WILL BE THE END OF US ALL!" raged Mirari Trunks. He went Super Sayajin right away and powered up fully. He shot a powerful beam at the entire lab itself. Smoke was everywhere, and the Z fighters had barely got out of the way of the blast. Everyone seemed to be coughing, and when the dust cleared, the androids were standing there, completely unharmed. 18 was holding the case where 16 was encased... with one hand. It was gigantic and plain, and it sported a "Milwaukee or Bust" sticker on it.
"Stupid move, boy. Now they know how strong you are." remarked Vegeta. Mirari Trunks was getting quickly pissed off, but for the sake of his mental well-being, he kept his mouth shut..
SLAM!
18 threw down the case and pressed a button. The top slowly opened as the Z fighters silently prayed to God that they would survive. The android that emerged was a tall, muscular man with short orange hair that blew in the wind. His eyes were the same colour as 18 and 17's.
*He looks like Rekuum.* thought Vegeta.
"Why don't you speak up?" 17 started questioning the android, but he remained silent. "What is your name?" Still, the android didn't speak. "Well are you going help us kill Goku or-"
"My name is 16. Dr. Gero created me for the sole purpose of destroying Goku. That is all."
"At least that helps some. Come then, let's find Goku."
"We have to get rid of these pests first, 17. I don't want them in the way when we find Goku."
"You won't have to worry about us being there when you find Kakarotto, because you won't be alive to find him." Vegeta lowered himself to the ground.
"Big words for a little man." smirked 18. It almost seemed to Tien that Vegeta growled at this remark.
"At least I have the strength to back them up."
"Oh really? We'll see." 18 smiled, then flipped her hair back, only to have it in front of her face again.
