Hey guys thanks for waiting so long. I guess it's been a while at least. Well I've had school work going on and didn't have the time to write anything, also just had a lot going on. So on with the show. By the way I don't exactly remember how things went but don't get mad at me and just go with it, might skip a bit of dialog as well. Oh and thanks for the reviews.
Fortunate Son
Carl ran through the streets as car and car was being blown up. Windows were being blown out from the blast waves and glass kept getting on him. He kept running till he guessed he was out of range from the terrorists. He hid behind a car and turned to look at the assailants. There were just two of them, one fat and pale and the other old and skinny. 'What are these guys?' Carl thought to himself as he saw more things being blown up.
Yesterday if someone had told him that tomorrow would be worse he would have laughed in their face. But sitting here now he would have to agree that yesterday didn't even hold a candle to this one. Sure his wife left him yesterday and took their kids but today he thought he was going to die. Not to mention that he had been laid off work due to budget cuts. Yep today was the worst day since yesterday.
The fat one shot some beam of light close to his hiding spot and he thought for a second to run but then a man appeared and directed the beam of light away. He then shot his own beam up in the air and let it explode. Before the man could get ready though the fat one shot at him and hit him. The man flew straight at the car he was hiding behind and was lodged into the front. The pale, fat man then shot another beam of light at the car making it explode. As the blast cleared Carl lay in a bloody mess. "Why is this happening?" he coughed. "Somebody help us." he said before going unconscious
Earlier That Day
Gohan was flying next to his father and Krillin and Piccolo to the spot where the androids would attack and he couldn't help but feel out of it. Piccolo flew on Goku's right and every time Gohan looked at him he just kept staring ahead. Of course Gohan knew why he was like this. After telling him of his origins Piccolo had been keeping a cold distance toward him. Although he knew Piccolo would act differently after hearing his story he hadn't expected this. He just couldn't wrap his head around why his oldest friend and mentor was keeping this distance. But all this was irrelevant, today was the long awaited day.
Piccolo stole a quick glance at 'Gohan,' he wore a gi similar to his but with boots. He still couldn't believe what the kid had told him. How could such a thing as this happen, it was not possible. But then the boy had known about Trunks and his parentage. Only he and Goku knew about that, and Goku hadn't told anybody. Not even his wife. Piccolo knew there was a chance that it was true but if it was then his friend had been taken away. He had been replaced by this other Gohan, one that was battle hardened. Though this would be retribution for the life the androids had stolen from him.
Gohan and the others landed on a mountain outside the city supposedly where the Androids would attack first. But this just didn't sit right with Gohan, the androids attacked a small village first if he remembered correctly. Obviously something had slipped his mind. When he looked at a flat spot he saw that Bulma and Yamcha were already on the mountain and Bulma appeared to be holding something. Something he knew to be Trunks.
"Hey guys!" greeted Bulma when she saw them. She noticed the looks she got when everyone saw that she was holding a baby. But Gohan's reaction was what surprised her. He had a small sparkle in his eyes when he saw her son but quickly replaced it with a look of confusion.
"Hey Bulma, you take up a babysitting job?" Krillin asked the blue haired beauty. He heard Yamcha snort at his comment.
"No I didn't, he's mine." said women replied. She smiled mischievously when they all had blank looks aside from Piccolo who obviously acted like he could care less, Goku who was smiling brightly, and Gohan who only for a second had a smirk on his face before replacing it with confusion once again.
"Congrats, guess you and Yamcha are doing great!" Krillin said.
"He isn't mine." Yamcha told his bald friend with as much distaste as he could. "I'm going to make a sweep for the androids." he said before taking off towards the city.
Krillin turned back towards Bulma after watching Yamcha fly off. "Whose is it then?" he asked.
Goku walked up to the proud mother and son saying "I bet it's Vegeta." before making baby noises and mentioning the name Trunks.
"How did you know?" Bulma shockingly asked him. "And for that matter how did you know his name?" Goku stood up straight and gave a nervous laugh before answering his long time friend.
"Just a lucky guess is all." he responded.
"Doesn't matter." Piccolo called out from his position by the cliff. "What does is the coming battle." he told the group.
Gohan shook his head at his father's stupidity. 'He very nearly gave up the future.' But Gohan's thought would be cut short when a blast from the middle of the city shot up in the air and exploded. 'They're here.' With that thought he blasted off towards ground zero.
Present Time
Gohan landed beside a man who seemed to be unconsience and bleeding all over. He could hear sirens coming and knew he would be taken care of. The others landed by him but he didn't notice. He looked at the androids but not ones he thought he would. 'Shit, I don't remember these guys.' Gohan thought as he glared at the supposed androids. But the ones he knew or not they were still androids.
Gohan reliazed that a conversation had been carried out in his musings and it seemed to be coming to an end. It seemed that most of the conversation was taking place between the older looking android and his father.
"When you took down the Red Ribbon army you took down my life's work, you destroyed everything I lived for!" Dr, Gero exclaimed.
"What does destroying a city have anything to do with me?" Goku asked.
"Nothing, my purpose to all of this has been you, Goku". Dr. Gero told the group. "You will die, and my vengeance will come full circle as I kill all of your friends and family".
Gohan was livid with anger. His father, his father was the reason that everyone he loved and cared about died. Vengeance on his father was the reason his love was gone. But he couldn't let his anger show on the outside lest the others see.
"You want to kill me I'm giving you the chance, but not here". Goku told the androids. And with that he took off to a secure location with all of us in tow.
30 Minutes Later
Goku landed on the very outskirts of the city so no one else could be injured. The others follower suit and landed next to him while the androids landed opposite of them. It was a stare off for a good six minutes before Goku walked up and got into his fighting stance. As Gohan looked at his father he could see the symptoms of the heart virus in his father.
"Dad wait"! Gohan exclaimed.
"No son, this all started with me", Goku stated, "seems fit that the first fight starts with me."
"Not that you will survive, I have been collecting data on you and your friends for years." announced. "You have no advantage I know exactly how strong you are."
Everyone seemed to freeze on that comment. It took a second or two but Goku asked one question everyone knew to be important. "Did you follow our adventures on Namek?"
answered with the best thing any of the Z gang could have hoped for, "There was no need."
"Well then you are in for a big surprise." At that last comment Goku transformed into a Super Sayain. "You've lost."
With those words Goku launched out at only to be stopped by an attack by Android Nineteen. Fists and kicks were traded before Goku jumped back for a breather. He could feel the virus taking its hold on his heart. And he went back and forth between Super Sayain and his base form.
"Is that all the Great Goku has"? taunted .
Goku smiled and took off again at his opponent. Goku sent a kick to the Android's head but was countered when the Android blocked it and sent a fist into Goku's leg. Goku cried out in pain before dodging a kick from the fat drone. He sent a weak punch at the machine which it blocked easily and blasted Goku 50 feet from him. goku coughed up blood and tried to get up but was surprised when the Android grabbed his neck and forced him back down.
Gohan watched as his father battled the android and was put down by him. When the Android grabbed his father's neck he could feel energy being transferred between them. 'It's taking dad's energy'. he thought. Gohan grew angrier with every passing second and could feel his power rising.
Everyone took a step back from Gohan as they felt his power and rage increase. From across the field felt it as well. Goku eyed his son from his position and a smile crept on his face before he passed out.
"I will not let this HAPPEN"! yelled Gohan. His hair went spikier and changed from black to gold and his eyes from their usual black to teal over and over again. Then there was a blinding light and after it faded away Gohan was standing there glaring at the Android as a Super Sayain.
"You die." Gohan said before taking off towards the Android holding his father's neck.
