Chapter 20
Vegeta came out just as the androids had started their attack, Piccolo and Superman trying to hold them off.
"Piccolo, get the rest of them out of here now! I have unfinished business with these tin metal freaks!" Vegeta said hurriedly
"Vegeta, am I glad to see you, we were starting to think you guys wouldn't be here in time. Where's Goku?" Krillin said with a smile.
Vegeta didn't bother to respond, but he searched for the energy signals of his son and his wife.
I HOPE I WASN'T TO LATE MY ONNA, I HOPE NOT, YOU TOO MY SON.
"So, the Saiyan arrives finally, but he looks rather different don't you think?" The android Vegeta said.
Vegeta looked at him with disgust.
"Android you have sunk to a new level, I didn't even think I was that pigheaded when I was in your current state. And by the looks of it you're getting orders from that computer of Dr. Gero's." Vegeta said with a grin.
Meanwhile at King Yema's palace, Gohan stood in front of the desk of the overseer of souls and waited to be judged.
"Well let's see here shall we? Oh yes, Gohan is it?" King Yema said with great pride.
"Yes your kingship," Gohan said taking a bow, "and I'll be happy wherever you plan on putting me sire."
King Yema liked it when his judgee's gave him respect beyond what he deserved.
"Well Gohan it looks like you deserve to keep your body and train on the planet of the Grand Kai himself. You have been given the stamp of approval by his truly. But for now I have more urgent plans for you. Why don't you just step out that door and you will go back to the Planet of the Kai's and train with Elder Kai and Kibito Kai?" King Yema said with great pride.
"With all due respect sir, I don't think it will be necessary. They plan on using a wish to get me back if they can find the normal Dragon Balls." Gohan was trying to be as patient as he could.
"I bet they are Gohan, but we need you to train anyway. I just know your training is going to pay off somehow. The Old Kai and Kibito Kai are waiting for you. I will have you sent there immediately." King Yema demanded.
Gohan decided to do as the giant asked. It isn't every time you die you get to keep your body.
"Ok, but how long will it take?" Gohan asked.
"Well, if I'm right, since time does not pass here, you will be able to train as long as you need time to. But time WILL pass if you watch the fight through that stupid ball of theirs." King Yema replied.
Gohan now understood why King Kai never bothered to watch when he was training his Dad.
"Oh well, if I can come back and make a difference then so be it. Don't worry Dad, I'll be there soon, and this time I'll be ready to face them with you." Gohan whispered to himself.
Meanwhile, back at the lookout, Vegeta was making short work of the Android Vegeta's nerves.
"What do you mean monkey?" The angry android asked.
"Well as Kakarot pointed out to me, you're taking orders and help from a machine! You can't even fight me without consulting that thing at any time. If it weren't for that infernal contraption, you wouldn't have been able to take out Gohan." Vegeta said with a smile.
The Vegeta android was shaking and a look of utter hatred was on his face.
"I'll show you Saiyan, that I am in no need of that contraption. I am just as much an individual as you are." The android tilted his head and a click was heard. The lights inside of the androids eyes disappeared.
"Now then, why don't we put your little theory to a test?" Vegeta exclaimed.
Vegeta then powered up, and his energy shot out around his body. The android looked at him with astonishment, and then attempted to read his energy. The androids sensors detected a vast jump compared to before, and instead of the android's power exceeding Vegeta's, the power from Vegeta was actually bigger than the androids own.
"How, in the world did you make such an enormous jump?" The android said shocked.
Vegeta smiled, gave no reply and then powered up to his maximum.
"Now android, you will face what no Saiyan has ever accomplished except for my dear friend Kakarot. You are now about to experience Super Saiyan 4!" Vegeta said with a grin.
"Super Saiyan 4," The Goku android pondered, "that actually sounds more like something me or the real Goku would say."
Then another sound and another portal opened up and out plopped Goku.
"You're pretty perceptive there you fake," Goku said smiling, "and I'm not even going to mention your clothing choice."
The Goku android looked at him menacingly, well at least as menacingly as Goku would be able to manage. The android then looked at him and pondered a thought.
"Wait, there is something strange about you. You should be dead! Why are you back here? How did you get back here?" The confused android asked.
Goku just grinned and then yelled out loud. The energy around Goku flowed away from him and his body began to glow. Then Goku went into his Super Saiyan 4 form. Black hair, long and spikey, tan pants, blue belt, and red body like Vegeta.
"Well, good to know I can still impress some people," Goku said in a little more horse voice, "but then again how often do you see a person with monkey hair all over their body?"
Vegeta actually smiled at Goku's failed attempt at a joke.
"Not to mention Kakarot, you look silly with all that hair around your head. But it is a definite improvement from your previous form." Vegeta said laughingly.
"So you both have reached new transformations, that is just what we needed for a good warm up." The androids both said at the same time.
Goku laughed, "God the IQ of Dr. Gero's creations have really fallen since the last models that's for sure."
Vegeta shot Goku a smirk and then continued to stare at the two androids
"Dr. Gero must be lacking in his old age," Vegeta said laughingly, "wait he's dead isn't he? Must be that computer going senile like he did."
Both androids looked very pissed off to Vegeta's comment. They both then got a grin and floated away from them for 20 feet. Then they both moved apart a few paces and then started to do something that Goku recognized. They were doing the Fusion Dance.
"Vegeta get away from them," Goku shouted, "they are going to fuse!"
Vegeta looked on in confusion and horror. Those androids gave Gohan a good fight individually, but with them fused they would be a combination that might be stronger than even himself or Goku. Vegeta flew over to Goku and looked on in horror.
"Fu-sion-haaaa," Both androids said in unison.
The energy the new form started to put out was more than Goku or Vegeta could have imagined. The new form started to take shape, and it looked like a form they knew all to well. It was their fused form Gogeta.
"Hmmm," said the voice of the new fighter, "this new form is definitely a major improvement."
Goku just looked on in anger, the whole time cursing himself for not attacking them when he had the chance.
"Vegeta, I think this just made things a little more complicated." The worried Saiyan replied.
Vegeta just shook his head, still with a look of terror.
"So, since we only got 30 minutes for this thing to work, I guess we should get started hmm?" The android Gogeta said.
Without hesitation the android then appeared in front of Vegeta and attempted to punch him. Vegeta reacting very quickly however, dodged his attack and then smiled as he launched his own attack. Punching the android in the stomach and then grabbing him by the hair and throwing him toward one of the trees on the lookout. Goku who also wasn't wasting any time appeared next to the android and let off an energy attack at the androids midsection and sent him flying farther. The android recovered and then shot out his own energy blasts at them both. Both Saiyans disappearing and reappearing to dodge the blasts.
"Well, well, well, at least this android is a little better at fighting, I may actually break a sweat," said a cocky Vegeta.
"Not to mention he has better control of his energy," said Goku smiling.
This just pissed off the android more and he started to fight them head on, together and one-on-one. First he would attack Vegeta and then attack Goku. But soon he was gaining the upper hand as he was starting to wear Vegeta and Goku down. But that all changed when Trunks and Goten finally came to their senses and fused. Then Gotenks took his shot at the new foe. Giving the android everything he had. Gotenks even powered up to Super Saiyan 3, fighting the android as hard and as fast as he could. But it still wasn't enough.
"Well Kakarot, looks like our sons had the right idea," Vegeta said.
"Yea Vegeta, but it looks like Gotenks isn't going to last too long," Goku replied.
Vegeta powered up and then flew over to the battle, not wasting any time he started to attack the android. This threw the android off guard and gave Gotenks the chance to launch off one of his more famous attacks. He began to draw in a great breath, and then he started to blow out a white object, which turned into many more. They all had the appearance of Gotenks. And they were laughing hysterically, pointing and laughing at the android.
"Gotenks I don't think that you will be able to pull that attack off fully!" Vegeta said smirking.
"Oh yea Dad? Then check this out, Super Kamikaze Ghost Attack!" Gotenks replied.
The little ghosts started to fly toward the android, but instead of their normal flying towards their opponent and detonating on impact, they stopped a few yards from it on both sides. Vegeta flew away to get out of the way of the attack.
"What the hell is this? Do you think a few ghosts are going to be able to stop me?" The android said.
Gotenks smiled and then let out a laugh, "Do you think these are just a series of simple ghosts? You are sorely mistaken android, they are ME."
Then Gotenks smiled, and motioned his hands like he was about to launch an attack.
"Do you think I'm going to fall for that kid? You get me to respond and then your ghosts run into me. I'm sorry kid, I'm not stupid." The android said.
But what the android didn't notice was that the ghosts were mimicking what Gotenks was doing, and then launched off a Kamehameha attack just at the same time as Gotenks did. The android found himself surrounded by hundreds of the ghosts and their attacks. They all had done a Kamehameha. And the most strongest one coming from Gotenks.
"Look at him go Vegeta, he's stronger than I would have ever imagined. I didn't think their fused form had such a useful technique as this." Goku said in wonderment.
"Bah, fool its just a kids game, its an attack that they created when they were kids." Vegeta said in disgust.
"Maybe so, but the attack possibilities are endless, you could combine that with a hundred or so different techniques if you were to take the time to learn a few." Goku said in response.
The surprised android looked on as the attacks closed in, he could do nothing but guard and hope that he could protect himself against most of the attacks. If he could at least deflect some of them, it would lessen the damage and increase his chances of survival.
"Damn you!" The android said as the attacks all hit him at once.
The ghosts sat and laughed and then one by one they all disappeared. Gotenks, looking very pleased with himself sat on a rock that was next to one of the trees on the lookout. The android sat there in the cloud of smoke. The smoke clearing to reveal his body racked with cuts and bruises. He was still in his guarding pose, hands and arms crossed over his face.
"I sorely hope that wasn't your best technique Gotenks. That may have weakened me, but is must have taken a lot more out of you." The android said.
"Gotenks, here," Goku shouted, "take one of these!"
Goku threw him a senzu bean, which was blasted by Gotenks.
"What in the world did you do that for?" Vegeta shouted angrily.
Gotenks just looked at the android.
"Are you out of your cotton picking mind?" Goku asked earnestly.
Gotenks then looked at them with the utmost disgust.
"Come on Dad, do you think I would use such a technique if it used up too much of my energy? I may be Super Saiyan 3 but I've been able to do it a lot longer than the both of you have. Heck, I've been able to do it since I was 6 if I remember correctly." Gotenks said with a smirk.
"Why you insolent brat, no manners at all," Vegeta swore," damn those kids."
Goku looked at Vegeta wearily, "Let's not ask them for help again when we need it. I can't stand that much cockiness."
Vegeta just nodded in agreement.
Gotenks then looked at the android, got up from where he was sitting, and then powered up again.
"I hope you are watching Gramps, cause I'm going to clean his clock out and throw away the parts" Gotenks said to them both.
The android was trying to calculate his own survival rate, and try to approximate his next battle plan when Gotenks disappeared and re-appeared in the androids face with his foot heading for its nose.
