DISCLAMER: I DO NOT OWN DRAGONBALL Z OR ANYTHING ELSE MENTIONED IN THIS STORY!

A/N: Wow, it's been a long time since I've written a DBZ fic. I actually have written a lot, but never published them. I have long since deleted them because they do kinda suck. Most of them had self-insertions of me, but that was way back when I was 16, and I've grown out of that phase…I'm 21 now.

This fic will be Android #18 centric, and it won't be all that humorous.

Just to give you an idea on the timeline, this will take place very shortly before Buu.

Enjoy!


Unsolved Mysteries

Chapter 1: Shock

It was a beautiful sunny day at Kame House. Roshi, Oolong, and the Turtle were gone, and so 18, Krillin, and Marron had the house to themselves. Krillin wanted to get some of his daily training done, but little Marron wanted to play. 18 sat on a lounge chair outside and watched with a small smile as her husband and three-year-old daughter played with a ball on the beach. They were busy laughing and playing, when 18 looked at her watch.

"Alright you two, time's up. Marron, it's your nap time."

Marron was disappointed. "Ahhh…but I'm not tired."

"Yes you are." 18 said as she picked up Marron and started carrying her inside.

"18, I'll just be out here training for awhile." Krillin said as 18 walked in the house with Marron in her arms.

"No nap!" Marron protested.

"Yes."

"Why mommy?"

"Because I said so." 18 or Krillin went through this almost every day with Marron. She just refused to take a nap when she was told to. Other times, she would just fall asleep even though it was not her nap time.

As 18 reached Marron's room, she tried to calm the little girl down as she laid her on her little bed. After a few minutes, Marron finally closed her eyes and 18 left the room.


18 was bored. Marron was taking a nap and Krillin was outside, and so she plopped herself on the couch and turned on the TV. She started surfing the channels, but could not find anything that looked interesting. 'Of course there is nothing good on at this time of the day.' 18 thought to herself.

Finally, she settled on something that looked sort of intriguing. It was a show where they tell stories of missing persons. The show had just gone to a commercial break, but she got interested and decided to leave it on that channel.

About two minutes later, the show started back up again. They started talking about a different missing person case after the commercial break. The narrator of the program was saying:

Ten years ago, two twin siblings by the names of Akito and Megumi have gone missing. They were last seen leaving their high school…

'Interesting.' 18 thought.

Then, 18 was stunned. She gasped as she saw a picture on the TV screen of the two missing teens on the show. Megumi looked just like 18, and Akito looked just like 17!

18 was staring at the TV screen just absolutely stunned. "It…couldn't be. This must be before Dr. Gero got me and 17!" Of course, she did not remember anything before Dr. Gero since he wiped out all her memories.

Krillin walked inside the house and saw 18 staring at the TV. "18, are you okay?" he asked as he saw the looked of horror on his wife's face.

Krillin then saw what she was watching, and he too, became almost just as shocked as she was.


A/N: So, what did you think? I'm not done with this yet! I thought this would be interesting to write since not many people write about 17 and 18 before they were cyborgs. If you're confused by anything, just ask in your reviews or in one of those private message things. I hope you liked this! Now, don't forget to READ and REVIEW! I really want the feedback!
