Chapter Four: Androids!

"Trunks! NO!" Kao screamed, as the energy beam warped toward the young Saiyan. Kao raced forward and barred himself in front of the incoming attack, shielding Trunks from the deadly blow.

"Well, we have a troublemaker." Android #22 growled. "You should step down before we get angry."

"I don't think so tin man." Kao growled. "You leave my friends alone!"

"Hmm, I guess we'll have to show this little one a lesson. #23?"

"As you wish." the small little Android with a Mohawk stepped forward. In a second, he was all over Kao, who tried his best to keep the blows at bay. Kao shook him off and set a well-aimed kick in #23's left arm. #23 skidded back, but kept up the pace.

"Give up boy," he smiled. "us androids have unlimited energy. You, on the other hand, aren't so talented."

"We'll see!" Kao growled. He retreated from close combat and flew into the air. Gohan watched as the young Saiyan fought the androids one-on-one.

"He's something that kid," Gohan whispered.

"I've never seen a boy with that much potential!" Pan said. "It's amazing!"

"Stop this, you piece of useless junk!" Kao shouted. "Masenko HA!" he fired a massively strong energy projectile toward android #23, who was directly in the line of fire. An large explosion erupted around the park, eventually creating a crater in the earth's floor. When it all cleared, Android #23 was in the middle of the crater, panting heavily. His right arm was sliced off completely, with wires and metal sticking out of it.

"That boy isn't like the others…" #22 thought. "He's better."

"He just severely damaged that android!" Gohan said shocked.

"I can see that you're powerful." #22 said. "We are no match for you at the moment. So we'll be leaving. But next time we meet, you will die."

"Don't count on it," Kao growled. The androids flew off without a backward glance, and soon, they were out of sight. Gohan rushed down with a small sack of Senzu Beans. He one to Kao and went off to feed the rest. Soon, everyone was back up to their normal self. All the fighters gathered together later on.

"Kao, how did you get so powerful?" Goku asked. "You weren't even a Super Saiyan,"

"I guess…I was born with it." Kao shrugged.

"Let's get outta here." Vegeta growled. "This place is annoying me."

"What's with him?" Koa whispered to Trunks.

"Just a sore loser…" Trunks replied, quietly.

"Dad," Gohan said, walking over to his father. "we need a plan to take these Androids down."

"I'm aware of that… we just need to know how." Goku replied. "The Hyperbolic Time Chamber won't be of any use. The Androids would have destroyed too many cities by then…."

"We'll just have to take them on." Goten said.

"Krillin, take everyone to Master Roshi's house." Goku said.

"But… where are you going?" Krillin asked.

"I'm going to train." Goku replied.

"But… where?" Trunks asked. "There's no place to train."

"I know one, and I'm headed there." Goku said, taking off.

"I'm coming!" Goten shouted, and shot after his father. Trunks followed and soon, Piccolo, Vegeta and Gohan all flew off to follow Goku.

Krillin stared after them for a while then took the rest to Master Roshi's island home.

The Kame House

"Androids eh?" Master Roshi asked.

"Yeah. Four of them." Kao said.

"Why didn't you tag along with Goku?"

"I guess…I didn't want to get involved." Kao replied.

"Boy, you're already involved!" Roshi replied. "You destroyed half an android!"

"I-I don't want to fight. I've seen too many deaths in my time. It haunts me." Kao replied.

"One thing you gotta learn about fighting, son, is to fight for what you want." Master Roshi explained. "There's nothing wrong about fighting for good. Fight for what you believe is right."

"I… can do that…" Kao thought. "I'll think about it."

"That's my boy…" Master Roshi grinned, and headed for the fridge.

The following day…

Master Roshi switched on the television and saw the morning news. The Androids had hit Pepper City, and were wrecking havoc among the buildings.

"These Androids will stop at nothing! They are on a wild killing spree!" the reporter shouted, over the sound of the explosions. Krillin was with. The TV woke Kao, Puar, and Oolong.

"What's going on?" Kao asked sleepily.

"Androids." Krillin replied. Soon, everyone was wide awake and watching. Kao couldn't stand anymore. The androids were killing innocent people. They had to be stopped. Kao quickly put on his orange and blue jumpsuit and slid into his boots.

"I'm going to Pepper City." he said. "These robots have to be put to a halt."

"I wouldn't be surprised if Goku and the gang are headed that way too." Roshi said. "Be careful."

"You got it gramps." Kao grinned. He burst out the door into the morning sun, and was halfway in the air when Master Roshi called him back.

"You might want this!" he shouted, and threw a long blade at the Saiyan. Kao clipped it around his chest and gave them a thumbs up. He then turned and sped toward Pepper City.

Pepper City

Androids #22, #23, #24 and #25 were still blowing up houses and towers when Goku arrived with the Z Fighters.

"Hey, androids!" Goku shouted. The four robots turned to see five Saiyans hovering in the air.

"Well, if it isn't the losers." #22 grinned. "Come to watch the show?"

"It's over today." Goku replied, landing next to the androids.

"I see. And how do you plan to defeat us?" #23 asked, joining #22 at the front line, ready to fight the five Saiyans.

"The easy way." Goku said. He started to glow gold, as his hair spiked up into a blonde yellow color. Super Saiyan color. Soon, Vegeta, Goten, Gohan and Trunks had all transformed into the same state as Goku.

"You fools don't know what you're up against." #22 grinned. "Well, dumb blondes, right?"

In an instant, the five warriors went onto an all-out assault on the androids.

On the way, Kao was headed to the rescue.

"Why has androids appeared?" he thought. "This is all so strange…" when he arrived at Pepper City, everything was practically gone. Buildings, houses, the lot. "What have they done…?"

Then, he heard an explosion. Hw flew over to the scene, where Goten and Gohan lay motionless on the blackened road, and Goku, Vegeta and Trunks fought the androids, though heavily outnumbered. Goku was booted back into a tower, which collapsed around him, burying him completely. Vegeta let his guard off when he turned to watch Goku fall.

"Kakarot!" instantly, he was blown off his feet and slid across the ground. With him, came Trunks. Their hair went back from blonde to their original hair colour.

Kao stepped out.

"Causing trouble again?" he growled.

"Well, the REAL competition joins us." #22 grinned.

"This time androids, there's no holding back!" Kao shouted. A golden aura exploded around his body, and the ground started to break beneath his feet. his hair stood to attention and flashed into the blonde/yellow color of a Super Saiyan.

"Hmm… I can see you aren't the same as the others." #22 said.

"You're right. I'm better." Kao said. "And you androids are going down."

"Bring it on little man." #22 smiled. "This'll be interesting."


That's That! I wonder what happens next? wait, I'm writing it! Anyway, R&R, no flames
