DRAGONBALL: A RETELLING
I do not own Dragonball or the characters in it. i am just a fan. andI don't like be accused of theft nor does my sister.
Note whenI say Raditz twice in a row it's just that Goku's older brother has a twin that is named the same. And note that whenI refer to Raditz with Zetheros its the good one. The older one is the good one.
DRAGONBALL
THE BEGINNING
CHAPTER 5: THE ANDROIDS
It was three years later and Gohan, Goku, and Piccolo all left for Ambeno Island. When they got there they saw everyone there but Vegeta. "I hope you don't think I'm crazy, but what's the deal with the baby, Bulma?" asked Krillin "Is he your son, Yamcha?" "He's not my kid and if you think that's a shock just wait. Wait till she tells who the father really is." said Yamcha "I bet it's Vegeta. Right Trunks?" said Goku "Now how did you know that Goku? I was trying to keep it a secret." said Bulma "Well I thought I'd guess. I mean he looks like Vegeta." "Yeah but you guessed his name too." said Bulma "Yeah what are the odds of that? Maybe I'm psychic." said Goku. "Who would have thought? Bulma and Vegeta." said Krillin. "And while we're on the subject, where is Vegeta?" asked Piccolo "I really don't know. I know he was training to come here but with the baby and all I guess I lost track of him." said Bulma "Don't worry. He'll show up. He wouldn't miss a good fight." said Goku "Kakarot's right." "Huh?" "Hey Zetheros. Where's Rage?' asked Goku "he and Raditz left after you defeated Frieza." said Zetheros "So they don't know about the androids?" asked Goku "No they don't" said Zetheros. "That don't matter. We already have Goku who is a Super Saiyan, and we have three other Saiyans; Gohan, Vegeta, and Zetheros." said Krillin "And not to mention we had three years warning, and training." said Gohan. "Yeah" said Krillin "Hey don't you guys notice something?" asked Tien "It's after 10:00 and there's still no sign of these androids." "Man I cant believe we trusted that guy!" said Yamcha. "Oh don't be so critical. It's only 10:02 ." said Bulma "Hate to break it to you Bulma. But they're not coming." said Yamcha. But as he said it there was a rumbling "What was that!" asked Zetheros "It was those androids. It had to be. But I don't see them." said Piccolo "I saw them but then they disappeared." said Goku "I didn't even get a read on their power levels." "Well they're Androids right? Maybe they don't have one." said Gohan "What how are we going to fight them if we cant sense were they are?" asked Yamcha "If we can't sense them then we'll have to find them the old fashioned way. With our eyes." said Piccolo. "Now remember if anyone finds the androids don't try to fight wait for the others." said Goku "Right!" And with that everyone took off searching for the androids. But it was Yamcha who found them. "Hey! You guys! I found them!" yelled Yamcha. Everyone went to where Yamcha had yelled, but when they got to the site they saw Yamcha being held up by someone they assumed to be the androids from Trunks' prediction. "Yamcha! Let him go Android!" yelled Goku "Its strange that you should that we are androids. What makes me even more curios is how you knew we were going to be on this island, Goku." said the android." Wait. How did you know his name was Goku?" asked Tien "We know everything about you lot. Piccolo, Goku, even you the one called Tien." "Let's get aquatinted later. Lets get out of here." said Goku.
So Goku and the others left and the androids followed them. Meanwhile Vegeta, who had taken a ship to go to space to train, was talking to himself. "Until Kakarot came into the picture I was the strongest fighter in the universe. My father would always tell me stories about the legendary Super Saiyan. A fighter so strong no man could touch him. How can Kakarot achieve what we both wanted for so long, so easily? It has to be the care he has for his friends including me. It also has to be that he has a pure heart. Ohh this is so frustrating. That's it! No more! I don't care anymore. I don't care about being stronger than Kakarot. I don't care about anything anymore. AAAHHH! Yes I've done it. I've become a Super Saiyan. This power is incredible. But its like I've felt it before." that's was when Vegeta remembered a battle that him and Goku fought in a long time ago. The battle with Cerino. The battle when Goku and Vegeta both powered up. "Kakarot behind you! Lookout!" "Huh?" "Kakarot!" yelled Vegeta, jumping in front of a blast that was aimed at Goku. "Vegeta! OHH! AHH!" then there was when Cerino nearly killed Vegeta and Goku jumped in in the way of the blast hurting him. So by the time Vegeta and Goku beat Cerino they had awakened the legendary Super Saiyans within them. "that's it! It was when we were facing Cerino. That's what it was when our hair turned gold." said Vegeta. He powered down and said "I need to get back to earth." so he took off in his ship and when he got back to Earth he said "Those androids should be here by now. I doubt Kakarot and the others gave them the greeting they deserve." he took of looking for Goku and the others.
Meanwhile during this time Goku and the others landed in a mountain area. "This is far enough. We will fight here." said Android 20. "Before we get started, I think we would all like to know how you knew all of our names." said Goku coughing when he finished talking "Very well. You have been under close observation since you were a boy. You had a device planted on you during the World Tournament when you was still a kid. So every one of your techniques was revealed. Even the secrets behind your Kamehameha was revealed." "I wonder were you spying on me when I was fighting on Namek?" "No there was no need." You may think you know everything about me but your wrong." "Did your calculations predict that Goku would become a Super Saiyan?" asked Piccolo "What!" "OHHAHH!" and with that Goku transformed in to a Super Saiyan. "This is an interesting development. But still Android 19 should be able to win still." said Android 20 "Alright lets go.' said Goku. Goku and the Android fought and the Android never touched Goku but for some reason Goku was on the ground and no one knew why. "Goku what's wrong?" asked Krillin "He must be hurt real bad but how?" said Tien "It has to be the heart virus. Its attacking his heart right now." said Goku "Yes that's it! But its happening a lot later than that boy from the future said it would. Goku just thought he made a mistake, but evidently his visit has already changed the past." said Piccolo "Oh no, Goku changed back. He's not a Super Saiyan anymore." said Yamcha "Daddy" "This should be easy." said 19. But just as 19 was going to kill Goku they saw someone come in blasting 19 away from Goku. "Not so fast Android. If there is anyone who is going to kill Kakarot here its me." said Vegeta "It Vegeta." said Krillin "You're pathetic Kakarot. You were warned of the heart virus and going Super Saiyan only made it worse." said Vegeta. He turned to the others and said "One of you needs to take Kakarot home and give him the antidote" "I'll do it. I hate to say it but I'll probably just get in the way." said Yamcha. And with that Yamcha took Goku and flew him to his house. While Yamcha was taking Goku home Vegeta was getting ready to fight the Android "Tell me android does a computer experience fear?" asked Vegeta and with that Vegeta transformed in to a Super Saiyan surprising Gohan and the others. "Lets do this." said Vegeta.
So Vegeta and the Android fought and within no time Vegeta had defeated 19 with a big bang attack. After he beat android 19 he went to fight android 20 and that's when they found out that the android was actually the infamous Dr. Gero. "You're beaten." said Vegeta "Hey look it's Trunks." said Piccolo as Trunks came down from the sky landing in front of the other warriors. Seeing dr. Gero Trunks let out that he was confused "What's going on this isn't one of the androids from my time." said Trunks "What? Are you sure about?" asked Piccolo "Yes" said Trunks 'On no not another one. I don't have any data on this one.' thought Dr. Gero. "Enjoy your victory while you can because I will unleash androids 17 and 18 on you." said Gero and he left causing a huge scene. "You told us a pack of lies boy. You told us that Dr. Gero was killed by his androids." said Vegeta "The time line as I know it must have shifted when I came back. Oh man I was afraid this would happen, but it was a risk I had to take." said trunks. "That doesn't help us." said Vegeta "Wait where's Goku?" asked Trunks "he came down with that weird heart Virus." said Krillin. "I cant believe time has slipped up this much." said Trunks "Bulma do you know where that crazy doctor's lab is?" asked Vegeta "Now that you mention it I remember read something about a hidden lab in a mountain side in the northern mountains." said Bulma "Trunks do you know if the androids that Gero mentioned are the androids from your time ? If so then there might be a chance we could destroy them before Gero even gets there." said Piccolo "I would never do something that cowardly . Only one cause of action could possibly satisfy me and that's to find these androids and destroy them with my bare hands." said Vegeta "you must never underestimate the power of the androids. If you want to destroy them then we have to do this Piccolo's way." said Trunks. But Vegeta ignored him and took off and Trunks followed him. Although history had changed piccolo told them that they still had to fight. Piccolo also told Gohan to take Bulma and Yarjirobi home. Then he told Krillin and Tien to go with him to find Gero's lab.
Meanwhile Vegeta was flying around looking for the lab with Trunks not far behind. 'I can't believe my father's so stubborn and self-centered .' thought Trunks. There was a flash back to right after they defeated Gero. "If that's the case then there might be a chance we could beat Gero there and destroy the androids before Gero even gets the chance to activate them." said Piccolo "I would never do something so cowardly." said Vegeta "Huh?" said Trunks "There's only one cause of action that can satisfiy me. I will find these androids and grind them into dust." said Vegeta "You must never underestimate the power of the androids. If you really want to destroy them we have to do this Piccolo's way!" yelled Trunks 'Unless I stop him his arrogance is going to get him killed' thought Trunks 'Don't these fools understand I am one of the Saiyan Elite. And Now that I'm a Super Saiyan my powers are second to none. Hump wait for Kakarot indeed. I will find these androids and grind them in to dust.' thought Vegeta. Mean while during this time Yamcha was still at Goku's house with Chi-chi and Goku, who was still sick in bed. "What are going to if Vegeta can't beat those androids and they come looking for him?" asked Chi-chi "I don't think we have to worry about that. As I was leaving the battle field with Goku I felt an energy that I have only felt two times before. When that kid fought Frieza and his father and when Goku did it when he fought that same kid. A Super Saiyan." said Yamcha "Okay whatever, Yamcha." said Chi-chi. Meanwhile Vegeta was still looking for the lab and Trunks was still following him. "Will you stop following me boy you're getting on my nerves." said Vegeta "Sorry but there's no way I'm going to let you fight the Androids on your own." said Trunks "And just what do you plan on doing to stop me? It'll take more than that puny sword of yours to stop me." "how many times do I have to tell you this before it sinks into that hick head of yours? Never underestimate the power of the Androids." "Ha. And never underestimate the power of a true Super Saiyan who would love to take on a challenge. Well if your going to stay then the least you can do is help me find Dr. Gero's lab." "Grr you're totally impossible!" yelled Trunks.
During that time Tien, Piccolo, and Krillin was still searching for the lab when they decided that it would be better if they spilt up and if any of the others found it they would send out a signal. So they all took off but it was Krillin who found it. He sent out the signal and when Piccolo and Tien got there he told them that Gero got there first. " You should have told us before Krillin! Ugh." said Piccolo . Tien and Krillin tried everything to get in but they couldn't get the door to open when Piccolo said to let him try Vegeta and Trunks showed up "Oh I see you found it" said Vegeta. "Hmm." said Piccolo and he started to power up "Hurry up Namek but don't destroy those androids before I get a shot at them" said Vegeta. "Piccolo don't listen to him. He doesn't know what he's saying." said Trunks "Shut up Boy." said Vegeta. But as Piccolo got ready to fire the blast they heard voices from inside the lab "What now you guys? He's activated the Androids." said Krillin "get out of the way I'll blast it open." said Vegeta "No you must listen to me there is no way we can beat them with out Goku. STOP IT! YOU DON'T KNOW HOW POWERFUL THEY REALLY ARE!" yelled Trunks "Too late kid." said Vegeta and he blasted the door open.
After Vegeta blasted the door open they saw the androids of Trunks' prediction. 17 and 18 the two androids that destroyed Trunks' father, his master, Gohan (adult), and every other thing Trunks' cared about. I guess that's why he tried so hard to stop Vegeta from finding the androids. He didn't want to lose his father again.
"So is this what you lot have been afraid of a boy with long hair and a scarf around his neck and a beautiful young girl. I take it these are the scary androids we've heard so much about?" asked Vegeta "That's them" said Trunks lowly.
