Finally, Chapter five is out! I apologize for the long wait on this chapter been busy with a lot of stuff and hardly fund the time to write this chapter. Anyways I hope you all enjoy this chapter as we delve into the Android saga!.

Edit Jul 4th: Just a quick edit to preserve continuity with a mistake I made :).

(Been a while since I wrote a story so it might be rusty if you see any mistakes feel free to point them out thanks!)

Three years later…

The time had passed quite quickly for everyone at capsule corp while their days were filled with training Grimoire and Caulli found other ways to pass the time, Grimoire enjoyed learning more about cooking and the many recipes on earth he could learn, he'd also grown a bit taller nearing Goku's height. Caulli begrudgingly hung out with Bulma who would often drag her to the city wanting to teach the young Saiyaness how to properly dress and act like a lady since Caulli was older and had to act like it, which was not easy as Caulli was not into wearing a dress, accessories or makeup.

She was a warrior, not a damsel which led Bulma to threaten her that she would not eat or train unless she tried to get used to earth's customs. It was a long stubborn battle between the two but ultimately Bulma proved that not even the stubbornness of a Saiyan would match her own.

This also came to apply to Vegeta as well as often throughout the years he would push his body to its breaking point in the gravity chamber, despite Bulma's intention to have the three train together that only happens for a few hours each day. The prince's stubbornness refused to take a break not letting any time to improve got to waste. Grimoire admired the resolved but despised the reckless training believing the Saiyan would kill himself before reaching the level of a Super Saiyan.

Caulli was eager to push herself as well but Grimoire would not have it, they'd train hard but not to a level where their bodies were at risk of falling apart like the prince. If not for the human woman the prince would've died countless times, there was something growing between the two a connection that both seemed to be becoming aware of.

This came more obvious to him when the gravity machine was destroyed and Vegeta was in tatters, Bulma had shown such concern and care for the prince even telling him that she knows he's strong and he didn't have to torture himself to get stronger. Bulma and Yamcha separated shortly afterward. To the frost demon's surprise, some of that cruel demeanor the prince carried with him seemed to fade in her presence as the prince even began to listen to her sometimes without her losing her temper.

Regrettably, improving the relationship between him and Vegeta was slow the prince never truly letting go of his animosity towards the frost demon, the only real time they interacted was with training and mentoring Caulli. He tried to discuss strategy with Vegeta about facing the androids but the Saiyan would have none of it, insisting that he would be the one to beat them by surpassing Goku and that he and Caulli better stay out of the way.

When it came to Vegeta and Caulli there was a lot more progress he'd ask her about what she remembered about home and Caulli was more than happy to tell him everything she could, though her more chipper attitude did annoy him Grimoire say the Saiyan prince warming up to her. Although there were some conversations that he'd overheard mainly Vegeta trying to convince the Saiynaess that the frost demon was manipulating her. It upset him hearing stuff like that but Grimoire knew better than anyone that it was well deserved King frost and Frieza were ruthless and well spoken, traits that made them rule most of the galaxy.

However when he and Caulli would meet up he'd ask her what she felt and she told him that she trusted him and that wasn't about to change, that faith she had for him was everything to Grimoire as it separated him from the stigma of Frieza and his family.

They'd occasionally meet up with Goku,Gohan and piccolo to train- though Grimoire also liked to get recipes and ideas for meals from Chi-Chi- and things were far more sociable with them as Gohan and Caulli become quick friends and Piccolo and Goku were eager to see what the two had to offer in training. Eventually they'd both learned how to sense energy which Grimoire found to be an incredibly useful ability and trained further to test its limits.

A big surprise came when they'd return from Goku and Bulma had an announcement for them, she was pregnant with Vegeta's child. The news had been a big surprise to the two Caulli being overjoyed about the new while Grimoire was stunned, Vegeta didn't seem at all interested in a family or a relationship anytime soon.

Over the course of the following months, they had helped Bulma with whatever she needed when they weren't training, Vegeta seemed to not care for Bulma or their child making little effort at all to help Bulma during her pregnancy. Eventually, baby was born a boy who Bulma named Trunks. While Bulma was always showering the baby with affection Vegeta showed disgust towards the hybrid making no effort to interact with his son. This made arguments between the two very frequent and Vegeta became more distant than ever.

Later Vegeta managed to achieve training at 450 times earth's gravity getting a good lead ahead of Grimoire and Caulli but still frustrated that he could not achieve super Saiyan he had Bulma's father make a ship and went to space to train with no distractions from anyone. Bulma asked Grimoire and Caulli to keep trunks birth and father a secret as she wanted to tell everyone herself. Grimoire and Caulli grew much stronger over the years Caulli was a little sad she had not achieved super Saiyan but she knew she was close from the hints she got from Goku on the transformation, Grimoire was impressed with his growth as he was close to Goku's Super Saiyan power level and soon it was time for the Androids to appear.

Grimoire and Caulli in an updated armor that Bulma made which had the same armor pads that were smaller, a white battle suit with long hazel boots that rise under her knees. Bulma had made the armour when she had broken her old set during training, Bulma was outside with them with baby trunks in her arms along with Yamcha and Tien on Amenbo island where the android were supposed to appear. They were just waiting on Goku, Gohan, Krillin, and Piccolo though Tien had been surprised to see Trunks especially after learning that he was Vegeta's son.

Grimoire was looking at the city keeping his senses out for any strong energy "Grimoire take it easy the android aren't meant to show up for another 30 minutes or so" Caulli told him placing a hand on his shoulder but he still looked to the city "I'd rather be safe than sorry Caulli, I just wanna make sure we don't miss them" he replied to which Caulli sighed in response "There's no convincing you huh?" Grimoire nodded making her roll her eyes "Hey guys Goke and the others have arrived, Hey over here!" he yelled waving an arm as Goku, Gohan, Krillin, and Piccolo landed.

Grimoire turns to see them feeling a little relieved now that they had their strongest player with them, Goku,Gohan and Krillin talk to Bulma " What are you doing here Bulma" Goku said "I wanted to see the Androids in person, don't worry I'll stay for a while then I'll go home" she replied as Trunks looked at Goke before smothering his face onto his mums shoulder. Krilli walked up to Bulma "I hope you don't mind but what the deal with the baby Bulma" Gohan looked to Yamcha who look frustrated "Is it your son Yamcha I bet it is!" he said happily Yamcha crossed his arms " He's not my kid" he replied.

Both Gohan and Krillin looked surprised but Grimoire noticed Goku didn't seem as surprised by revelation, Yamcha sighed "if you think that's shocking what tell she tells you who the father is…" he said with a low voice before walking away. Both Krillin and Gohan were confused then Goku walked up to Bulma with a smile "I'll bet it's Vegeta's isn't that right Trunks!" everyone stared shocked at Goku, Grimoire was stunned how in the world had Goku guessed it right away?!. Then something clicked in his mind Goku had been told by a Saiyan from the future about the androids and Bulma's son is the only Saiyan that would be born around the time they appeared, could it be was the Saiyan from the future Trunks. He couldn't believe it but who else could it have been it all point to that conclusion.

He'd missed the rest of the conversation as Caulli interrogated Goku on how he'd known the Saiyan saying he was psychic or something, but Grimoire was certain he knew the truth. Piccolo then walked forward "Speaking of which where is Vegeta?". Grimoire crossed his arms "Offworld last we saw him he wanted to train by himself but he should be here any moment he wouldn't miss this" he stated Tien walked near Goku "I left Chiaotzu at Roshi's I don't think the little guy can handle what we're about to face" Goku nodded his expression serious and stern.

"So, what's the time now?" Bulma checked her watch "According to my watch it's nine thirty so we have another 30 minutes" Goku then moved towards her "Bulma you should go while you still can, it's gonna be dangerous here soon" he asked Grimoire and Caulli walking off knowing that she would not leave that'd already wasted to much time on the way here trying to make her go back to Capsule corp. Piccolo was overlooking the city along with Tien with Grimoire standing with them while Caulli caught up with Gohan.

"Well it's almost show time, only thirty minutes left…" he said as the three kept their senses on the city.

A while later…..

Grimoire, Piccolo and Tien were still looking out while the others were around the baby Caulli and Gohan making silly facing making baby trunks laugh, then Grimoire picked something upcoming towards the group "Something coming our way everyone!" he announced as everyone looked up to see an object heading towards them. "Do you think it's them?" Gohan said "I can't tell yet" Krillin replied to the young Saiyan "Well it is them their in for a beating!" Caulli said cracking her hands. As the object drew closer then realized it was a capsule corp vehicle and as it landed a chubby man with a long wild mane of black hair wearing a sleeveless, knee-length red yukata with black stripes, a black obi, black wristbands, shin bands and straw sandals with a katana at his side.

Goku laughed with a smile "Hey Yajirobe you came to help us fight the androids!" Yajirobe turned to him with a stern look taking off a small leather bag and handing it to Goku "No way!, I just bought these senzu beans from Korin" Goku took the bag "Thanks Yajirobe but are you sure you don't wanna stay and help out" the large man got into his vehicle turning to Goku "If you guys wanna stay and get yourselves killed that your own business, me I'm getting out while I still can" he replied as he turned on his vehicle and flew off. "So what are these Senzu beans?" Caulli asked, "There special beans that can recover and injuries you have, so if any of us are hurt we can patch them up right away!" Goku answered.

"Don't you think it's a bit strange?" Tien said some of the others looking at him confused "It's ten already yet there's no sign of these androids" Grimoire turned to everyone "He's right it well past the time they were meant to arrive something feels off here" Grimoire added. "Don't be so literal you two it's only 10:17 I don't think we should believe they'd be on time" Yamcha smiled "Face it Bulma there not coming if they were here we would have sensed their power levels by now" he stated and just on que an explosion rang in their ears, everyone looked up to see a cloud of fire and smoke trails across the sky into the city "What the?!" said Caulli as Yajirobe's car was spiraling down to the city.

Grimoire looked around the sky spotting to figures in the sky but something was wrong he couldn't sense them "Everyone up there I see the androids!" they all looked up in time to see small dots fly down to the city. No one could sense the energy of the two figures which didn't make sense if they were to be stronger than frieza they would certainly feel that kind of power. Gohan then spoke up "Well they are androids perhaps we can't sense them" what he proposed chilled everyone to the core if it's true then they had no way of tracking the android if they weren't in sight. "Hey Bulma hold onto these will ya," Goku said throwing the bag to Bulma but Grimoire moved and caught them with his tail "I'd feel better if we had the beans on us Goku if one of us is hurt it'd be better to have them on hand".

Goku looked unsure but nodded since time was of the essence "Okay everyone let's spread everyone and remember when you find the androids will wait for the others to get to you" he looked to Gohan and Caulli "Gohan, Caulli the both of you check on Yajirobe and see if he's okay" he said to the "Right!" they said in unison. "Let's go!" Piccolo shouted as everyone blasted off to different sections of the city.

Grimoire was scouting from up on top of the building try to spot any odd figures on the street ut not seeing anything out of the blue, he'd use his power to speed up and cover more ground quickly occasionally making light go on or a car act up but nothing caught his eye. He kept his senses on his friends to make sure they were okay. Meanwhile, Caulli and Gohan were lifting Yakirobe out of the ocean taking him back to Bulma "Did you see who attacked you?" Caulli asked the soaking man "No they just came out of nowhere and before I knew it my car was toasted!" Caulli looked back to the city "Be safe Grim"

Back in the city Grimoire was getting nowhere he seen nothing odd or unusual among the populace of the city, suddenly he felt a sudden decrease to Yamcha's energy he must be hurt. Speeding through the town as a bolt of lightning he arrived in time to see a truck rush by and crash into a gas station exploding blanketing the streets in walls of flame, He witnessed as an old man in an odd outfit was holding Yamcha up with one hand accompanied with a chubby man with white skin. They hadn't seemed to notice him yet so he decided to wait for the others to arrive that is until he saw the android holding Yamcha raised its hand towards his chest.

Before he could react the android stabbed his hand through Yamcha's chest Grimoire sensing his energy began to plummet dangerously low as Yamcha's arms fall down with no strength left. Grimoire body went cold as he saw his ally take a mortal blow his anger welling up he sensed someone approaching and saw the others arrive in time to see the android pull out its hand from Yamcha's chest before dropping him onto the street. Goku looked to Grimoire "Grimoire there's still a chance to save take Yamcha and go somewhere safe to give him a Senzu bean" as he said that the androids turned to the frost demon "Well this is a surprise I have not seen a being like you before" his eyes flashed red "It seems, however, you are of no concern" Grimoire walked forward taking Yamcha as the android kept its eyes on Goku seemingly lost interest in him.

"I'll be right back Goku!" with that Grimoire carried Yamcha flying away from the city heading back to Bulma where Caulli and Gohan were watching her and Yajirobe. As he landed he placed Yamcha down as the two young Saiyanes rushed over at the gravely wounded ally "What happened to Yamcha "The Androids is what happened " moving his tail he took out a bean from the bag as feed to Yamcha, to his and Caulli's surprise the wound began to close up as Yamcha empty eyes began to fill with life and he gasped for air.

"Easy there friend are you alright?" Grimoire asked amazed that such a healing item existed just then a series of explosions went off in the city destroying half of it. "Did the androids do that!" Bulma screamed as everyone watched in shock at the destruction they witnessed. Grimoire was disgusted at the sight reminded of the countless horrific acts king Cold had done in his service to the tyrant. They saw some figures fly away from the city Goku seemingly in the lead "Goku leading out of the city" Grimoire said before Yamcha placed a hand of his shoulder "we have to warn them the androids can drain their energy!". Everyone looked at him in horror "What do you mean?" Caulli asked him "When they had me in their grasp I could feel my energy being drained out of my body!".

Caulli ran to the edge of the cliff they were on "Then what are we waiting for come one we have to warn them!" she yelled then followed by Gohan they both flew off following the group "Caulli wait dammit!" he turned to Yamcha "You good to fly again?" Yamcha arms shaked "I'm not sure I wanna get back into the fray I almost died back there" Grimoire laid his hand on his shoulder "I understand your fear just tell what was it like when they drained your energy" Yamcha's arms shook "It felt like he was draining my strength into his hand slowly ripping my life away it was such an odd sensation but you would definitely know if it was happening" Grimoire nodded "Look after Bulma, Trunks, and Yajirobe!" he said before taking off faster than the others covered in lightning.

Catching up with Caulli and Gohan filling in on what Yamcha told him they tried to locate the others eventually picking up Goku's energy signaling he had gone super Saiyan they needed to hurry!. Finally, they found the others as Goku was in the middle of pummeling the android with ease the enemy not getting a single hit "Hey Goku got this guy looks like we don't have to worry!" Grimoire eyes narrowed on the fight "Goku needs to be careful these things can drain energy!" everyone looked to him "What?" Piccolo replied in shock "Yamcha explained to me that when the android got a hold of him it drained his energy". Everyone looked back to the fight where Goku was in the middle of pummeling the Android, yet something was off normally Goku was more effective in a battle and patient but it looked like he was desperate.

He knocked the android to the ground where it looked up waiting on Goku who looked winded breathing heavily "What's going on with Goku why is he so exhausted all of a sudden?" Caulli asked concerned that the man she'd seen so alive in a battle look so tuckered out. Goku then began to charge the Kamehameha "No Goku don't the androids can absorb energy!" Grimoire screamed too late as the super saiyan unleashed the fury of his ki wave at the android who smiled raising its hand as in a horrifying display it absorbed the energy rapidly till the attack was completely consumed.

Goku looked completely drained to the confusion of everyone present "Why does he look so weak did the android really drain that much energy!" Krillin screamed, "I don't think it was the android something else is draining him!" Piccolo replied as everyone watched the tide turn as the android got the upper hand of Goku. The android began to take Goku hits and hit him back pushing Goku back, Goku attempted to use another Kamehameha but failed as he clutched his chest breathing heavily blood pouring from his mouth.

Gohan then yelled, "It's the virus it's attacking his heart right now!" Grimoire and Caulli looked in shock a virus was attacking Goku's heart! "Yes That's it but it's happened much later than the boy from the future predicted, Goku thought it was a mistake but it appears that his presence has already altered history!" Grimoire was more confused than before but they had to do something "What can we do to help him!" he screamed to Piccolo as Goku landed on the ground falling to one hand as he tried in vain to stand up breathing heavily. Krillin then flew towards Goku with the bag of Senzu beans he took quickly from Grimoire "Goku here's a Senzu bean!" he said before throwing one of the magical beans to Goku who ate it. The other Android, however, made no move at this "We are well aware of the healing properties of the Senzu, it's magic has begun to heal your body but we won't give you enough time for it to heal you".

The android engaging Goku let forth bright energy beams from its eyes at the Saiyan creating a small explosion of smoke, Goku flew out of it only to be met by hard punches from the Android no time to counter or block it's blows. As Grimoire watched this occur his mind was filled with dread Goku was their best fighter if he fell know it would put them at a disadvantage especially now since the android stole his energy. Slamming Goku's head the android sent the super Saiyan flying to the ground where he could barely lift himself up not looking healed at all from the bean. "It's no use he has to take the antidote but it's back home!" Gohan stated as Goku was being pummeled by the android being kicked around as if he was a toy.

"If we're going to do that we need to keep these two busy" Grimoire muttered to himself before looking at Caulli who looked at him back with a knowing glance. Raising his hand he raised two fingers and flexed them twice Caulli nodding as the others focused on the fight, Grimoire, and Caulli powered up before they rushed forward towards the fight the Z fighters looking in terror as the two rocketed off "No wait!" Piccolo yelled but they were not stopping in their flight. The other Android in a flash of movement appeared before them about to speak but Grimoire and Caulli then split off in two directions both heading towards Goku. At this point, the Saiyan was n the ground losing the transformation as the android began to choke him as lights flashed around his body draining what little energy was left in his body

"You won't make it far" the Android declared as he fired his beams rapidly at the two who were doing their best to avoid the blasts as they drew closer to Goku. Piccolo clenched his fist as he began to power up "We need to help them if we're gonna get Goku to safety come on!" with that the fighters flew to aid their friends as they were closing in. Caulli was hit but luckily her armor had taken most of the blow but her shoulder was burnt and her arm began to numb "Dammit!" she kept flying as Grimoire rushed towards her just barely evading the beams "Stay near me!" he yelled as a barrier of purple energy formed around them as the two arrived to help Goku.

"They will not interfere not after all the effort we've gone through" the android said just as Piccolo appeared behind it ready to slam it with his hands, the android turned quickly firing beams into the Namekians chest arm making him scream in pain before he threw a kick into his gut sending him plummeting to the ground as the other fighters stood there in shock. "You know if you fight you won't survive let me demonstrate..." as he said that he disappeared before appearing above Caulli and Grimoire his hand reaching for the barrier.

The moment his hand touched the barrier it immediately began to sucked into the androids hand, Grimoire felt his barrier being drained making it disappear before the android got any more energy "Go Caulli!" Lightning began to travel around Grimoires body "What!?" the android yelled before the frost demon bursted towards him managing to grab both arms before both of them took off away from the area to the rock cliffs. Caulli then went towards Goku who hands were losing their grip as the android laughed maniacally. Just as the Saiyaness about to throw a punch before a shadow passed by her at blinding speed as a familiar white boot slammed into the androids face sending him flying into stone, Caulli had a smile as she and everyone save for Grimoire at the new arrival "Prince Vegeta you made it!"

Standing proud in a blue bodysuit with white Saiyan armor with a confident smirk stood the Saiyan prince "No one gets to kill Kakarot while I'm around destiny has reserved that pleasure for me" he looked to Caulli tilting his head a little "Stay out of this fight Caulli I can handle this one without your help" Caulli looked confused for a second but saw confidence in Vegeta's eyes "Show them Prince" she said before hearing a loud crash turning to see grimoire sliding on the ground taking a defensive stance.

"Took you long enough to show up Vegeta" he said before the other android slowly descended before him "Well I wanted to see what these androids had to offer before I took a crack" Vegeta remarked before seeing the slow breathing saying before him "How pitiful character even though you were warned about the virus you still don't the medicine your too much of a fool to be a true warrior, I'll handle this android then I'll settle our score" with that he kicked the Saiyan towards Piccolo who caught him as the others checked on their fallen comrade. "He's unconscious but he's still breathing!" Gohan said "You need to give him the antidote he doesn't have much time left," Vegeta told them as he looked to the android sizing up his opponent. "Gohan let me take Goku back home, I'm no use in this fight anyway but the others need you kid," Yamcha said before he picked up Goku and flew away.

The large android was about to fly not letting his prey escape so easily "19 enough from the result of your battle we now know that Goku is not a problem for us, so in let's take our time destroying him and remove these other nuisances" he said before he narrowed his eyes at Grimoire as Caulli took his side "Need a hand, Grim,?" she said with a grin "Since your offering sure" he replied as lightning arched around him. The android smiled "Oh yes this will be most enjoyable indeed" 19 then bowed "I shall finish off Vegeta now yes?". Grimoire tightened his stance Goku only seemed to lose because of that virus but how was Vegeta planning to win without being a Super Saiyan. Grimoire eyes widened in realization staring at Vegeta "Has he really achieved that level?" he thought as the old man android gave 19 permission to deal with Vegeta "I'll help myself to his other allies then and don't interfere understood?" 19 nodded and the androids faced their respective opponents.

"You stand no chance Vegeta Doctor Gero studied you thoroughly so I am aware of all your moves" 19 said confidently which did not faze the prince's smirk "Well then why were you surprised when Kakarot became super Saiyan, it's because your creator didn't witness our battles in space so your missing a big gap if information on me" he stated smugly, "oh, is that so?" 19 responded with a smirk of his own " Yes, now let me ask you does a machine like you ever experienced fear?" Vegeta then began to power up as the wind began to whirl around the area as his hair began to flicker between onyx and gold, the ground beneath his feet crumbled and floated as his power skyrocketed. Caulli stared in awe "Has Vegeta really done it Grim?" she asked the first Demon who was smiling beneath his visor "He has Caulli Vegeta's actually reached it".

Both the androids and everyone present watch in shock as a brilliant golden aura enveloped Vegeta as he let out a roar as his hair became gold and his black eyes turned teal, a crater forming from the sheer energy he was producing. "No not him as well!" the other android exclaimed as Vegeta stood before 19 transformed golden energy radiating off his body. "I don't believe it I thought only someone like Goku with a pure heart could become a Super Saiyan!" Krillin yelled as Vegeta walked out of the crater towards Android 19 "Afraid not there's more than one way to reach the goal, my motivations differed greatly to Kakarot as I desperately trained beyond my limit to become a Super Saiyan and stand as the pinnacle of the Saiyan race".

Grimoire looked to Caulli "We'll take care of this one Vegeta should be able to hold off the other one" Caulli nodded as Grimoire shouted, "We got this one Vegeta so don't worry about being interrupted!" Vegeta laughed "Don't bother trying I'll finish this fight in no time then I'm going after the other android myself", Grimoire powered up as the lightning became more intense around him "This, not a game Vegeta we're fighting to save this world, we're taking this android out ourselves" he replied to the prince as Caulli powered up as well while the android looked at both of them. "Well since you're both so eager to die I'll be happy to oblige," he said as his eyes began to glow red.
