Title: Crimson-dipped Obsession

Summary: Bulma Briefs' life made a horrifying turn when an obsessed Saiyan prince arrived on Earth and wanted her to be his! What's more to this alien was a dark secret that has caused a change in the history of Dragon Ball Z, and if it is revealed, it holds the fate of the entire universe.

Genre: Horror, Psychological Thriller, Romance, Mystery

Disclaimer: I do not own Dragon Ball Z. Some events in this fan fic is also inspired by Mirai Nikki and DBXV.

Warning: You might find Vegeta out of character in this story as this fic is made as an answer to the question 'What if Vegeta was a yandere?'. Vegeta is originally and generally a tsundere. A Tsundere is a character who is initially cold and even hostile towards another person before gradually showing a warm and caring side over time. The yandere personality is the exact opposite of a tsundere personality. A Yandere is a character who is genuinely kind, loving, sweet or gentle, but can suddenly switch to being aggressive or deranged. (From wiktionary).

If you don't like Vegeta to be like a yandere then I suggest you to turn back now and stop reading as this story also contains lots of blood, gore and violence.

There will also be lots of death in this chapter.

Chapter 26: Sealed

[Age 763, September 5, 9:45, The Island nine kilometers Southwest of South City]

The Z fighters, composing of Son Goku, Son Gohan, Piccolo, Krilin, Yamcha and Tienshinhan all met up at a high rock formation that overlooked at the South City. Late in the evening yesterday, they all received a call from Goku about Vegeta's claim that the Androids were already in here. Nobody believed him at first, saying that Vegeta might be making up stories and set another trap for them all to be killed.

[Age 763, September 4, 22:45, Son Residence]

"Yeah, I suppose so." Goku agreed with Krilin's logic. "But it won't hurt to try and see. What if they are really in here? I would want to fight them!"

"But what if this is another trap set up by Vegeta?!" Yamcha asked him, clearly he could not forgive the Saiyan for what he did to him. All those sufferings and tortures he endured in that cramped room completely traumatized him.

"You wouldn't believe the state he was in now. He's badly beaten to a pulp. He said the Androids did it to him. As evil as Vegeta is, he couldn't have inflicted that much damage to himself, could he? I cannot just leave him alone like that. After all, Bulma will be safe so long as Vegeta's under my watch."

However, when Goku returned to his room where he left Vegeta, the prince was gone. Seeing the windows to his room opened with the curtains billowing with the cold night wind, Goku thought that Vegeta must have left.

Goku became alerted at that and wondered where Vegeta went to in that state he was in. It doesn't matter, Vegeta's too injured to do anything to them.

[Age 763, September 5, 6:00, Son Residence]

Early this morning, Goku was surprised that Vegeta has not done anything to them after all. Now where did he left to?

[Age 763, September 5, 9:45, The Island nine kilometers Southwest of South City]

Now, they're all in here. Standing on top of a cliff overlooking the island nine kilometers Southwest of South City, completely clueless whether the early appearance of the Androids were true or not or if it's just a trap set up by Vegeta.

"Hey guys!" They heard a female voice call out above them. They all looked up to see Bulma approaching them in her yellow jetplane.

"Bulma-san!" Krilin asked.

Bulma landed her jetplane behind the Z-fighters and then went out of it. The red headed detective from the future also came out of the jet after her.

"Bulma! What are you doing in here? It's dangerous in here!" Yamcha told her, surprised and annoyed that she was in the danger zone where the Androids or Vegeta might attack them.

"Sorry, she's too stubborn..." Irami apologized, rubbing his hair with a sheepish grin.

"Well, I heard from Son-kun the news about the Androids. So I came all the way in here to check things out!" Bulma exclaimed. Her bravery burning up in her cerulean orbs.

"H-how did you know about that, Irami?" asked Krilin.

"I met up with Vegeta-san early this morning when I found him pacing around the West City... He looked quite disheveled when I saw him so I treated him breakfast..."

[Age 763, September 5, 6:45, West City]

A few hours ago... As Irami flew back to Capsule Corporation he saw a familiar figure pacing impatiently around the streets of West City Capital. Good thing he was looking for him these past few days to interrogate him about those bones he found on Pepper Island. So he landed quietly behind the desheveled Saiyan Prince. Vegeta automatically turned around and snarled at him but immediately relaxed when he saw who it was.

Irami took Vegeta into a nearby eatery for breakfast. The Saiyan prince began to chomp down the food before him in no time, not even worried if it was poisoned or not.

"Everyone's treating you as an enemy now after what you just did on Paradiser's Island. What do you think of it?"

"I could care less what those fools think of me now." Vegeta responded as he continued chomping down his breakfast.

"But Bulma-san, too."

With that, Vegeta stopped eating and put the rice bowl down. The look on his face was of sorrow... his eyes looking at the bowl with such sadness. Irami saw the pain in his eyes so he decided to change the topic.

"So you killed the owner of those bones in Pepper Island, huh?"

"I already told you, yes I did."

"Why did you do that? What was your motive for the murder?" Irami asked.

Vegeta's obsidian eyes looked up to him and he forced out a smile. "I think that was none of your business."

"Okay... If you don't want to tell me that then at least tell me whose bones were those."

With Vegeta stood up and walked away without bothering to answer the detective's question.

"Eh? Vegeta-san?" Irami watched as Vegeta walked out of the eatery. He saw Vegeta stop at the exit and turned around saying, "The Androids have come earlier than expected. Please watch over at Bulma for me."

"Eh?"

"I met them yesterday and got myself beaten. They're coming today at ten, at the island nine kilometers Southwest of South City."

And with that, he left. Irami thought why he avoided his question. He turned to see the spoon Vegeta used to eat his breakfast. "It's alright, though..." he thought.

When he returned to Capsule Corporation, Bulma was waiting for him. She looked like she had no sleep after being terrified yesterday night.

"Irami-kun. You are going to take me to the battlefield now!"

"Eh? But Bulma-san! It's dangerous!"

[Age 763, September 4, 22:48, Capsule Corporation]

Bulma was calling at the Son Residences for the while now since her mother was gone. She was borderline worried and scared, but was trying to be brave and courageous. Goku's line was busy. She could not understand why he would be on the phone at this time of the night. And it took long before Goku was able to answer her.

"Hey, Son-kun! I thought you're going to check on me! What's taking you so long?!" She demanded him.

"Sorry, Bulma. Something just came up. I found Vegeta outside my house just now... He's badly beaten."

"Eh? Why? What happened to him?!" Bulma didn't know why she sounded so worried for the well being of the person responsible for her and her friends suffering on Paradiser's Island.

"... Well... uh... He got into a fight and he's uh... not good."

"Serves him right!" Bulma said. "After all he did to us. Did you even know he sent a real heart as a present to me earlier after I talked to you on the phone?"

"Really? Uh... that was disgusting. Anyways, Vegeta said the Androids are here."

"EH? The Androids? That's ridiculous! Aren't they coming in four years? Why now? That's suspicious!"

[Age 763, September 5, 7:15, Capsule Corporation]

"That was suspicious, indeed." Irami muttered.

"See? What if it was all a trap set by Vegeta? I need you to take me in there! Only I can save them!" Bulma said as she showed him her invention. Irami suddenly felt fear of her and her device, knowing what it was capable of doing to anyone with superhuman powers.

Irami didn't know who between Bulma and Vegeta was more dangerous. He finally understood the reason why Vegeta likes her so much. Her mechanical genius alone would make her dangerous even to those with powers such as himself. It was good that Bulma Briefs was a good natured woman. The thought of Vegeta corrupting her genius mind with his evilness was a scary thought. Irami erased those thoughts away. It's impossible. Even in the future, it was Bulma who influenced Vegeta to change, not the other way around. She was always a strong willed woman who refuses to be controlled or be influenced by others, not even Vegeta himself. It's going to be okay.

"Alright..." Irami sighed as he gave in.

[Age 763, September 5, 9:45, The Island nine kilometers Southwest of South City]

"Vegeta told you that?" Krilin asked in disbelief.

"Yes, I don't think he has an intention to come in here." Irami said.

"Well, that was good." Tien commented. "I couldn't stand being with that psycho after all."

Then suddenly out of nowhere, Vegeta dropped down into the buff below them. Everyone, except for Goku and Irami, suddenly tensed. Vegeta turned around to see them with a deep scowl before he let out a wide arrogant smirk. "Hoooo... I didn't expect that all of you are here. You have the guts to come in here knowing that you stood no chance."

"Vegeta! What do you think you're doing in here?!" Yamcha growled.

"What do you think I'm doing in here, weakling?" Vegeta snapped back. "Of course, I came in here to destroy the Androids!" And then Vegeta noticed Bulma behind the group, hiding behind Irami and Goku. "Bulma!" He called out happily. The scowl on his face melted and changed into his sweet, childish smile. He raised his hand and waved at her. "Bulma! My dear little Bulma! I finally found you! Watch me! I am going to protect you!"

Bulma stared at him in horror. Was he beaten up yesterday? Goku said he was in a terrible state. How come he's perfectly well now? Did Goku give him a senzu?

Then she noticed the armor he was wearing was strikingly familiar. That style. The armor we was donning was white and gold just like his old ones. The difference was the golden shoulder straps replacing the golden shoulder pads of the armor. He was still wearing a blue long-sleeved jumpsuit under the armor, white gloves on his hands and white boots with golden toes on his feet. The first thing she thought was "Just as I thought. That would look good on him.", then she wondered, "Wait... How the hell is he wearing that? Did he read my mind or something? I was thinking of making that for him when he fights the Androids but...!"

Vegeta's armor was made of synthetic and advanced rubber composite that was both stretchy and very durable. Bulma was thinking of recreating the material through extensive research and make a customized new armor for Vegeta to wear when he fights the Androids in four years. She drew what she thought was best to fit his magnificent figure and yet would give him the best protection. That was the sketch she was looking at yesterday and threw in the trash bin.

She could not understand how and why.

"Vegeta-san!" Irami called. "Would you like to come up in here for a second? Bulma-san wanted to tell you something!"

Bulma turned to Irami in panic, "Wha-?"

Irami turned to her and winked, "Take care of him for us. We need you to look after him as the battle goes on."

"I see..."

Vegeta cheerfully climbed into the rock to see his girlfriend immediately. The very moment Vegeta approached her, she threw her new invention towards him like a frisbee. The device was about twenty inches long, a silver metallic band. It spun around him, surprising him greatly, he clearly was not expecting that. The device hit him on his throat, and locked around his neck snugly. Vegeta immediately collapsed into the ground in disbelief and choked. He rolled into the ground, feeling his powers being drain out of him by the strange device. No... it cannot be.

He heard Yamcha cheered for Bulma because she was successful on rendering the great Prince of Saiyans powerless. "What's the matter, Vegeta? How does it feel to have a taste of your own medicine?"

"Bulma! What do you think you're doing?" Goku said through clenched teeth. "I thought I told you not to do this."

"Shut it, Son-kun! Can you blame me if he's that dangerous?" Bulma retorted back, giving him a glare that made the Saiyan Warrior step back in fear.

Vegeta tried to rip the band off his neck but found out that he could not. He even tried to summon his powers but was not able to. He knew it was useless after all. He looked up at Bulma as she argued with Kakarot. Tears of pain and betrayal fell from his eyes. "Why? Why are you doing this to me?!" he yelled at them, demanding answers.

'Because you're scary and dangerous.' She wanted to say.

"This is just for precautionary measures in case you use your powers against us." Bulma told him coldly.

"Are you an idiot? The Androids are here! They're going to kill us all! You know only I have the power to destroy them all! Take this thing off me!" Vegeta shouted at her, clearly aggravated.

"You're not going to do anything to us anymore!" Bulma shouted back, anger boiling in the surface and fear... fear of having Vegeta go berserk and murderous. She had enough of his craziness and she didn't want him to lock her up again and go killing her friends.

"Who says I'm going to do anything to you?! I am here to protect an idiot like you!"

Bulma's ire flared and she took her control device that looked like a small remote control. She pressed a button on it and Vegeta screamed in agony. "Where is my mother?!" She roared.

"I do not know what you're talking about-"

"Where is my mother?!" She roared even louder.

"I said I do NOT know! I swear it!" Vegeta cried out. Bulma gritted her teeth in annoyance. Such a liar like him deserved to die. Her anger at the fact that she has no clue where her mother was was getting the best of her and she tortured Vegeta with her device out of rage. The Saiyan prince screamed in agony and Bulma felt her heart pound in strange joy at the pain she was inflicting on the Saiyan.

This monster deserved to die, to be sent to hell where he belongs.

"Bulma, stop!" She heard Goku's voice snap her out of her blind rage. Bulma blinked her eyes, as if waking up from a dream.

"Eh? Son-kun?" She muttered. Everyone was looking at her direction in both shock and terror. For the moment, they thought how Bulma acted almost like Vegeta during his bloodlust. And wow, she was even more terrifying than him.

She turned to see Vegeta jerking on the floor and she dropped the remote on her hands. She grabbed the sides of her head and she cried out in despair. Yamcha then pulled her closer to him and embraced her as Vegeta watched at them with his glassy onyx eyes. Jealousy burned in his chest and it pained him so much he shed tears.

The Z fighters heard several, quick footsteps and they turned around to see and overlook at the island. Vegeta picked himself up pitifully to look. Android 16, Lapiz and Lazuli were dashing quickly towards them along with five other companions. They were dashing towards where the Z fighters were, with incredible speed, it almost looked as if they were floating in the ground, and with their V formation they were like geese flying towards them.

Leading the other seven Androids was an old looking man whose codename was Android 20. He was short and lean, with long, disheveled gray hair and a large, bushy white mustache. He wore two dangling earrings, orange baggy pants, an extra large banana white strap on vest, a broad red sash and black pointed hat. Not far from his sides were Android 16 and a pale, pudgy Android numbered 19 who wore the same clothing as 20. On 16's right side were the Androids 17 named Lapiz and 18 who was also known as Lazuli. On the left side of 19 were Androids 13, 14 and 15. The one numbered 13 was a muscular and mulleted man with long white hair that goes to the middle of his back. He wore a yellow vest adorning the Red Ribbon Army logo, gray suspenders, brown vest, black pairs of gloves and boots and a yellow baseball cap. Next to him was Android 14, who was a large, heavily built muscular man with long dark braided hair, he was donning a brown brassard and belt, large brown gloves, long green skirt and yellow and black boots. He is also noticably pale. And lastly was the shortest and smallest among the eight Androids, was the one numbered 15. He has dark skin and pink broad lips, he wore a large green hat with a red ball on top, a black and white tuxedo shirt with a dark yellow and blue overcoat, baggy light blue pants and black boots. A red bow was around his neck.

All eight of them have the same pale blue eyes piercing at the Z-fighters, who were surprised at their number.

"They're here..." Tien growled, tensing his muscles for the fight.

"Those are the Androids? I thought they were only two of them?" asked Yamcha. "W-why are there eight of them?"

"I-I don't understand either." Goku said.

"It's the cause of a paradox created by Trunks-san's interference." Irami answered. 'Or someone else's' Irami didn't say that out loud but his eyes flickered at Vegeta for a second.

"It doesn't matter. They're all here. We have to fight." Piccolo said.

"Yes, Piccolo-san!" Gohan obediently replied.

The eight Androids stopped before the Z fighters, looking at each of them with their cold pale blue eyes.

"Ah, It has been a long time, Son Goku." said the leader.

Goku glared at the Android numbered 20 and said, "How did you know about us?"

"Haha, well then. I guess I have to tell you after all. Ever since you have destroyed the Red Ribbon Army, I, Doctor Gero have spent my time researching about what could kill you, Son Goku. I have been watching you all these time using microscopic robots and has learned everything about you until your fight with Vegeta. I used that knowledge to create the Androids who would bring the death of you and your friends!"

"Huh? That's... Doctor Gero?" Bulma said.

Everyone turned to her, "Do you know him?" asked Gohan.

"Not really but... I've seen him in newspapers. He's one of the greatest scientists in the world."

"Haha, I am quite flattered that a girl like you would know of me." Doctor Gero said.

"Ah yes, he looks exactly like the Doctor Gero I know!" Goku recognized. "Y-you made yourself an Android, too?"

"That's right! In order to complete my creations and to see your demise, Goku I have pursued artificial immortality by being an Android myself! This is going to be your end! All of you!"

Everyone, except Bulma and Vegeta, fell into their fighting stances, bracing theirselves into a fight.

"Bulma! You have to go now!" Goku told her.

"O-okay! Good luck, Son-kun!" Bulma said before she climbed up to her jet plane.

The huge Android 13 was about to shoot at her but Doctor Gero ordered, "Let her be! Let's focus on defeating Son Goku and the others first before we go and kill the rest of the small fries."

"I understand, Doctor." Android 13 obeyed.

As Bulma was about to close the hatch of the jet plane, Vegeta climbed into the seat next to her.

"What the fuck, Vegeta?! Get off here!" she yelled at him. He completely ignored her and stubbornly sat next to her.

"Drive," he ordered.

"Stop ordering me around, you jerk! Get off and fight with Son-kun and the others!" She shouted.

"Are you an idiot? You've sealed my ki, how do you think am I supposed to fight them huh?! Should I bite them like a dog?!" Vegeta snapped back at her.

"Get off!"

"Release me first and then I will fight for you."

"No!"

"Then drive!"

"Arrrgh! Vegeta you jerk! Why are you being like this?!" Bulma angrily roared as she piloted the jet to levitate.

Meanwhile, outside the jet plane, the battle between the Z-fighters was about to begin.

"Huh? Hey look, Vegeta's trying to escape." Lapiz noticed.

"15! Go after Vegeta!" ordered Android 20.

"As you wish, 20." said the Android numbered 15, before disappearing into the battlefield.

"No! Stop!" Goku shouted, knowing that Vegeta was along Bulma in the jet plane. They're going to be in danger. He was about to stop the two androids when Lapiz fired at him.

"You're not going to go anywhere, Son Goku-san," Android 17 said.

Android 20 was smirking at him. "16, 17, 18, take care of him! The rest of you take care of the other small pests that would get in the way!"

"Yes!" said the Androids except for the one numbered 16.

The Androids charged at the Z-fighters with the intent to kill. The twins charged at Goku simultaneously as the huge Android 13 charged at Irami. Android 14 charged at Piccolo and Gohan while Android 19 attacks Tien, Krilin and Yamcha. Android 20 remained watching at the battle on the sides, pleased at the upcoming blood feast. Doctor Gero's ambition was to kill Goku and after that, to dominate the world and destroy the worthless pathetic insects called humans. Soon, this world will be his to rule over.

When Android 20 noticed Android 16's lack of cooperation, he asked him, "What do you think you're doing, 16?! Go and kill Goku!"

"I refuse to fight Goku if he's outnumbered like this. I prefer to fight him on a one-on-one battle, Doctor." Android 16 said. "Let Androids 17 and 18 handle him. They are enough to kill Goku."

"Oh? I see."

"Why did you let Android 15 go after Vegeta and his girlfriend alone?"

"He is of less importance as of now."

"I recommend that you have Android 19 to go after them too."

"Why do you think so?"

"Because Vegeta is a much more dangerous enemy than Son Goku and the others."

Android 20 glared at Android 16 and tried to think of his creation's suggestion twice. "Alright then."

Goku was using his Kaioken to his maximum at fourty times. He was able to match the twin Androids' attacks but with more effort than what the twins were putting.

Irami's battle with Android 13 was an equal match as well. The brute was equally as powerful as he is. While Piccolo and Gohan's combined efforts were still nothing against the might of Android 14. Tien, Yamcha and Krilin were easily dominated by the pudgy Android 19.

"Aaarrgggh! What's the meaning of this? It seems like they're not getting tired at all!" Yamcha said.

"They're Androids, I bet they don't feel fatigue or pain at all," Tien said.

"This is going to be the end for us all." Krilin said. "And I haven't even found a girlfriend yet..." then his eyes fell to Lazuli. He thought she was very beautiful, it's a shame she was an Android programmed to kill all of them.

A loud scream rang above him and they found Bulma's jetplane crashing into the water.

"Bulma!" Yamcha screamed as he was about to jump to save her but...

Bwwaaakkk!

Yamcha let out a loud grunt, his eyes were huge as saucers, shocked and pained. In his chest, Android 19's hand impaled him from his back and went through his front. His heart was on the pale cyborg's hand and galloped it final beating.

Krilin and Tien looked on in shock as the Android mercilessly pulled his hand out, ripping the heart out of Yamcha's body that hit the ground, dead.

A few seconds later, Krilin's desperate cry echoed at the battlefield.

"Y-Yamcha-saaaaaaaaan!"

Everyone turned into his direction and found Yamcha dead.

In the water below them, Vegeta came out of the completely burnt plane with a crying and scared Bulma, swimming into the water like survivors of a terrible plane crash.

"Wha-? What happened?" Bulma asked Vegeta, clinging at him like a scared little girl.

Vegeta didn't say anything as he picked a dino-capsule from his pocket and threw it into the water. A water motor boat appeared where he threw it. He helped Bulma climb into the boat and he immediately climbed into it. "Drive," he told her.

"What just happened in there?!" Bulma demanded.

"Just drive away, woman!" Vegeta shouted as he took out a dino capsule containing several weaponry. Bulma looked on at the set of weaponry he owned and found what it looked to be was a highly advanced laser gun.

"But I heard Krilin crying out Yamcha's name-"

Vegeta angrily turned to her and handed her the gun. "If you don't want to drive then you shoot those damn Androids!" he told her before he went to maneuver the boat away from the battlefield.

"B-But... Vegeta, wait!" She yelped as she fell into her butt. Vegeta was driving the motor boat aggressively at the fastest possible speed. The short Android 15 chased them around, firing blasts after blasts of energy them. The prince expertly maneuvered the motor boat to avoid the blasts.

"Yamcha-saaaan!" Krilin cried out. Everyone's head turned to his direction. "Noooooooooo!"

"Yamcha..." Tien said as he looked at his friend's corpse. One of his friends have died a brutal death at the hands of this Androids. He growled, refusing to be defeated. He thought of Chaotzu, who he told to stay with Muten Roshi in the Kame House. No, he cannot let these mechanical abominations to destroy everyone. He stood up straight and released his ki to charge up. He placed his hands infront of him, forming a triangle with his fingers. Everyone watched as Tien charged his most powerful ki attack. Doctor Gero and Android 19 let out a crooked smile.

"KIKOHOUUUUUUUU!" Tien shouted as he released a powerful golden beam from his hands. Android 19 simply raised its right hand, revealing a red round gem on the palm of his hand.

"Haaaaaaahh!" Android 19's high pitched yell echoes throughout the battlefield as the gem on his palm glowed and absorbed the incoming beam of ki.

"Wha-?!" Tien uttered in complete disbelief.

"Nyahahahahahahahahaha! You think you can defeat me? Look at this!" Android 19 showed them the gem in his hand. "This will absorb any energy and would charge my batteries, making me much more powerful than before!"

"W-Whoah! T-that was... unbelievable! He just absorbed Tienshinhan-san's attack like that!" Krilin said.

"19!" Yelled Doctor Gero. "Finish them quickly! After you're done with those two, go after Vegeta and kill him!"

"As you wish, 20," said Android 19 and then he sauntered forward to kill Krilin and Tienshinhan. The two humans fell into a battle stance and charged at the pudgy cyborg.

All Android 19 did was to blow a hole into their chests and they fell into the ground, lifeless.

"Krilin-saaaaaan! Tienshinhan-saaaan!" Gohan screamed as he ran towards Krilin but was blocked by the bulky Android 14.

"Get away!" Gohan roared, completely enraged. It will only be a matter of time before his legendary hidden power is unleashed.

The silver-skinned Android found the boy's ki rising so he mercilessly kicked the half Saiyan boy into the ground. Gohan crashed into the Earth. As the powerful Android was about to blast the ground, Piccolo attacked the android head on though his attack was futile against the tough enemy. Android 14 turned to him, grabbed his arm and blasted him with a powerful blast to the chest. Piccolo's body fell into the ground, dead.

"P-Piccolo-saaaaaan!" Gohan cried out as he saw his mentor and best friend lay dead into the ground before him. Purple blood pooled on the dirt. With that, the half Saiyan's rage exploded. Gohan roared his wrath, powering up to unbelievable levels.

The half Saiyan son of Goku leaped from the ground and blindly charged at Android 14. He pulled his fist on his side and punched the muscular Android on the face. Then he let out several rapid punches on his enemy's frame but it were all nothing against the tough Android. Gohan refused to give up though so he charged up a very powerful Masenko blast which was easily knocked away by his enemy.

Having used all his power into that attack, Gohan was exhausted. He dropped into the ground, his power level depleting greatly.

"That was it? Hmmm... Very astounding but it means nothing against our might." Doctor Gero said.

Android 14 appeared from the smoke caused by Gohan's Masenko earlier and he was completely unscathed.

What kind of monster is this abomination? It seems that there's no way for them to neat these monsters. The stories from the boy from the future flashed on the young warrior's mind and he feared that this was actually happening right now.

Was there no hope? But... then, his father was there. Still fighting against the Androids. He knew his father could cause a miracle and change the tables. He hoped so.

Android 14 appeared before Gohan and raised his arm.

Irami saw what was about to happened and tried to go and save Gohan but the vicious Android 13 continued attacking him.

"Gohan!" Goku screamed at his son but Androids 17 and 18 were relentless on attacking him, too. He saw the bodies of Krilin, Yamcha, Tien and Piccolo and then he suddenly snapped.

An ear-piercing powerful scream echoed across the entire Earth.

The planet was suddenly cloaked in darkness, dark thunderclouds enveloped the skies as flashes of lightning lit the skies. The ground began to tremble at the wake of the legendary power of the Saiyans.

Everyone turned their eyes towards Goku, whose body was trembling uncontrollably due to the rage and power that he was trying to contain and control.

"Krilin... Yamcha... Tienshinshan... Piccolo... Grrrrrrrrrrghhh!" He growled as he shook in fury that was greater than what he had ever felt his entire life. "Y-you... You Androids... T-t-this is... completely unforgivable... Grrrrgh! I will make you pay... for this... with your blood!"

After seeing his best friend and his other friends die at the hands of the ruthless Android 19, Goku exploded with pure wrath. At first, what he only felt was anger at his friends' deaths and then followed by the desire to make them pay, for what they did. With that, he felt the beast within him trying to take over him. His desire for vengeance was slowly turning into blood lust, the desire to kill. Goku felt the beast trying to possess him, telling him to let it free, to release it from being asleep within him. His head jerked up, his black hair standing up straight and glowed with golden vibrancy. His body began to be enveloped by golden aura as he roared loudly in pure rage.

He doesn't want to lose control, he doesn't want to become like a beast, but he needed power, he needed the power to stop these Androids from killing Gohan, Piccolo, Irami, Bulma, and the humans. The power and blood lust was intense, and so as his anger, he needed to have this power but he has to control it before it controls him.

Goku decided to have a deal with the beast, to let go but he must have control. In order to stop the Androids he must.

Goku finally understood how Vegeta felt now. How it felt to slip out of control, to give into the desires of your own primal instincts. The thirst for blood and destruction. The intense desire to kill and destroy. But it doesn't mean that you need to give in entirely. Your need to protect your loved ones would always be greater than the rage of the beast. And that made him very different from the Prince of Saiyans.

Son Goku roared like a beast as he let go, releasing the beast within himself, letting the power and rage consume him, but holding to his desire to protect his loved ones. It was a hard struggle though but he was able to hold on the only thing that would save him from insanity.

Finally, another Legendary Super Saiyan has awakened, and his name was Kakarotto, also known as Son Goku.

TO BE CONTINUED.
