Chapter 9

It was a fun Friday in Mt. Paozu, some of the Z Fighters had decided to go camping over the weekend, and Gohan was able to come because their was a storm in Satan City, that just so happened to destroy the building right next to the Highschool. The Z-Fighters who went on the camping trip were currently competing in "The Dino Game" as they called it. The last one to find and kill a dinosaur or the one who doesn't find a dinosaur doesn't get to eat dinner, while playing this game, you can use your ki, but can't track anything with it.

Gohan snuck around the tree, very careful not to make a loud noise, as there was a dino just in front of him. He patiently waited until it turned around, and once it did, Gohan jumped made a sword with his ki, and jumped out of his hiding spot.

"Ahhhhhhhhh" (insert a slicing sound).

Gohan picked up the headless dinosaur and flew back to the camp site. "Damn this is a big one." Gohan told himself. The T-Rex was definitely bigger than most, he assumed it was because his home got destroyed, and he migrated here because of it. Gohan landed at the camp site.

He wasn't the first one there, surprisingly.

"Dad? How have you already caught one"

"Well, I had only ran for about five seconds before I found this guy and killed him." Goku explained.

"Lucky." Gohan replied.

"It's called skill." Goku chuckled.

Gohan smirked. "Totally."

The father/son duo cooked their respective dinosaur. "Hey son. You know what would go real good with this T-Rex?"

"What?" Gohan asked.

"A stegosaurus!" Goku exclaimed as he looked at the dinosaur, he soon glanced back to Gohan, and when their eyes met, they took off.

They were running. Twenty meters away. Ten meters. Five meters. (Insert slicing sounds) They were too late. Someone already got it.

They waited for the dust, from the collapse of the stegosaurus to blow away. What emerged from the shadow may not be what was expected.

"Goten? Is that you?" Gohan asked.

"Yeah! And now I get two dinosaurs!" He said while jumping up and down, and eventually stopped and stuck his tongue out.

So, the Son family finished first, as they all expected. So, they decided to wait for the others. By the time the sun was just barely setting it was over. Everyone had returned, except one person. Yamcha.

"Let's go find him." Krillin spoke.

"That's weird, I can't sense him at all." Tien Replied.

"Maybe he's trying to be really calm to track a dinosaur." Trunks spoke.

"Doesn't mean he'd have to lower his ki." Gohan replied. "Let's split up. Everyone take one person with you." Gohan looked to his dad, who nodded. So they were off, trying to find Yamcha so they could finally end their game. The father son duo flew around the area and saw nothing. No movement except dinosaurs, bears, snakes, and other animals. No sign of Yamcha. They decided to land and walk around.

They continued for hours. No luck. The group met back up at the campsite. The dinosaurs were finally cooked and they could eat a nice meal, but no one wanted to. They decided to head back and find Yamcha.

"I don't know why it's such a problem. He's a pathetic earthling, forget about him. I'm staying and I'm eating my dinosaur." Vegeta spoke.

"Fuck off. He's not a pathetic human, he's my fucking friend. I'm tired of you talking shit to everyone you dick. He could need our help out there, hell, he could be dead, and you're standing here talking about how he's some pathetic earthling and you'd rather eat a dinosaur than help him. You know what go right ahead. It's your life to ruin." Tien spoke as he flew off and everyone else followed behind him, instead of going in groups.

Twenty minutes had passed, and then Tien saw something red on a tree. "Hey! Look!" He shouted to the rest of the group as they descended to the ground.

It was blood. It looked like someone had drawn a message on the tree.

"It says help." Tien spoke, starting at the tree in shock.

"Yeah, and it's fresh blood. Yamcha was here." Krillin spoke.

"That's why we can't sense him. He's dead." Gohan looked at the ground and clenched his fist. "I'll make whoever did this pay!" Gohan shouted as he transformed into Super Saiyan 2.

"Gohan. Calm down. We can wish him back with the dragon balls. We have to stay calm and act, rushing into a fight isn't always the smart thing to do." Goku told his son, who looks back at him in question, and then took a deep breath and went back to his normal form.

"You're right." Gohan replied walking to the tree. "If only there was a clue." Gohan said as he walked around the tree.

"Guys Look!" Goku pointed at the ground. An arrow, made of blood, pointing to the right.

"This means Yamcha either went to the right to escape or the person or thing that killed him went to the right, so we need to stay cautious of our surroundings." Tien spoke. The whole group turned around, looking and sending for anyone.

Someone was there.

"Piccolo?"

"Goku. This is what you were looking for." Piccolo replied as he threw something at Goku, as it got closer they recognized what it was. A head. A head of an Android. "It was weak. It must not be the only one. There could be hundreds or thousands of here things out there somewhere. I'm sure that just one of these couldn't kill Yamcha, unless it snuck up on him." Piccolo replied.

"So we should expect more than one of these things huh?" Gohan said, looking at the android head in his father's hands.

"So that's an android? Cool!" Goten exclaimed. Admiring the machine.

"They're not cool son. They're heartless killing-machines." Goku told him.

Gohan turned to everyone else. "You guys can look for Yamcha's corpse or whatever. I'm going to go find the dragon balls." Gohan said in an almost angry tone as he started to fly away.

(Gohan's POV)

Before landing in West City, he decided to get some anger out at the forest about five miles away.

"I messed up again. I could've stopped this, but I wasn't careful enough. I wasn't aware of what was in the forest. I wasn't smart enough. It's all my fault." He said as he punched a tree causing it to fall. He decided to punch another one, to get the rest of his anger out, but when he turned around, it wasn't trees that crowded his vision. His eyes widened. There was hundreds. Thousands. Millions of eyes beaming at him. 'Oh crap.'

"Gohan Son. We have been programmed to eliminate you and destroy your father's legacy once and for all." An android in the front spoke. He was an orange color, with red horns all over his body. The rest of them were shorter, blue skinned fighters with purple horns across their bodies.

"You and your army are different than the ones who killed Yamcha."

"Yes. You are correct. The ones who killed your friend were the failed projects. They were useless. Just like your friend. We couldn't think of a better way to eliminate him."

"You bastards!" Gohan shouted as he transformed and charged at the leader. The leader just stood there and the army attacked. Gohan got to the leader before the minions got to him, he threw a punch at the leader, but it was too late. He was gone. Gohan turned around just to receive a "knuckle sandwich" sending him flying to the ground, but before he landed, the leader flew after him and punched him in the gut once more. He landed on the ground, helplessly. Soon after hitting the ground the leader put one of his horned feet on Gohan's head.

"Any last words?" The leader asked.

"Yeah." Gohan said. "GOLDEN DOME ATTACK!" He shouted as he created a shield with his ki and then fired the ki upwards hitting the leader and blasting him into the sky. Gohan flew up to him at full speed. "SPECIAL BEAM CANNON!" He shouted as he fired his mentor's signature move, unpairing the leader of the group as his minors just stood on the ground and watched in awe.

Gohan descended to the ground as the leader's corpse hit the ground. "You guys think y'all can't get away without punishment, don't y'all? Well that's not the case for killing my friends and trying to kill me. "MASENDON!" He shouted as he charged a masenko like ki, and threw it in a grenade like ki blast.

After the explosion faded, Gohan walked over to where thousands, possibly millions of androids stood. "They never learn." Gohan spoke to himself and sighed. He made sure his friends' ki signatures were alright and then flew off to Capsule Corp.

He arrived in a matter of seconds, after getting in with his fingerprint, he walked into the lab, where Bulma usually leaves the dragon radar.

"Gohan? What happened? Are you alright?" Bulma asked rushing towards Gohan.

"I'm fine. I need the dragon radar."

"Why? What's going on?"

"There is more androids. This time a whole army. About a million of them attacked me and I defeated them. Sadly, those weren't even close to all of them. I need them because Yamcha couldn't defeat the ones that attacked him, and now he's gone."

"Yamcha's dead?"

Gohan nodded.

"The radar is in the second drawer over there. Go save the Earth kid.

Gohan nodded. "Bulma, do you still have the Kamahameha wave Gun?"

"Yes, do you need it?"

"No. Take my mom and your parents in your fastest Jet Copter and fly to the lookout. They may be after you guys too." Gohan told her.

She simply nodded and ran out of the room. Gohan grabbed the radar and sprinted out the door and flew off for the first dragon ball. 'Satan City. I've never seen one there before.' Gohan thought, accelerating to his max speed.

Once he arrived in Satan City, he pushed a button to make the dragon radar zoom in, to give him more of a precise look at where the dragon ball was. He descended in an alley and ran towards the dragon ball's marked location. He soon arrived at the location of the ball.

"No way." He said as he looked around. He was at a place that he was relatively familliar with. Videl's house.

"Gohan? What are you doing here?"

(AN: CLIFF HANGER! Thanks for reading this chapter, I hope it was a good one. Sorry it took so long, I got a little bored of writing and I only have about an hour of free time at home, considering I have football practice and a lot of homework most of the time. Well, thanks to all who read this chapter and have reviewed, I'm trying to make it better and better. I'm sorry for whatever grammar mistakes I've made, I talk a lot of slang irl so it's a habit. I only re read this once also... anyways, I'll try to update this weekend, but I won't guarantee anything after what happened last week. Well, I hope you all have a great day. Peace.)
