Unexpected Turn of Events

When Vegeta arrived alongside the rest of the Z-Fighters. He was surprised to see a much younger-looking Dr. Gero, and a fat Android 19, that looked like the Android 1900 from dragon ball online.

"Odd...is this the only change to be made by my interference. If this is all, then I really will be disappointed. Hopefully, Cell will provide better entertainment," Vegeta thought, casting a spell as he flicked his finger at them.

Vegeta tried casting his Zoom spell, when all of a sudden, his spell shattered as if it ran into a solid wall.

A massive and defusive reaction occurred when Vegeta's Mana crashed onto their skin. He was met with heavy interference and stalwart resistance.

Whatever they were made of gave them a very high level of Magic Immunity.

Vegeta grinned and said, "Maybe this won't be so bad."

Landing down next to them Gero spotted his rival and grinned, "Ahh, Son Goku. We have been looking for you for some time now. So good of you to arrive in person. Any longer and I would have started to blow this town to smithereens."

Goku frowned, "So you must be the Androids," Goku looked around at the people staring at them in wonder, after all, they all flew down from the sky.

"How'd you know..." However before he could continue, Goku held his hand up, interrupting the Cyborg in disguise.

"I understand you want revenge for the Red Ribbon Army, but not here. If you want a fight, we'll pick a deserted location." Goku demanded before flew up and started to head for the ocean.

Vegeta grunted and followed after along with the rest of the Z-Fighters.

Dr. Gero didn't mind in the least if Goku changed his location. After all, he was getting what he wanted, to kill Goku.

He and Android 19 flew across the sky, following the Z-Fighters until they ended up in the middle of a barren wasteland of stone and dirt.

"This place is as good as any." Goku landed on the ground alongside the rest, Dr. Gero then smiled as he said, "Android Super 19, destroy Son Goku."

Android 19 walked forward and smiled, "Target confirmed, commencing assault protocols."

Dr. Gero chuckled and said, "If you want to survive, you best use that Super Saiyan 3 transformation that you used when you fought that purple and pink alien."

Everyone frowned when they heard Dr. Gero mention the Super Saiyan transformation.

Goku smiled and said, "I don't think that's going to be necessary,"

Goku transformed into a basic Mastered Super Saiyan and smiled, "We've been training for your arrival, we're much stronger than we used to be."

Vegeta walked up beside Goku and transformed into a Super Saiyan as well.

"I got the thin one," Vegeta said as he cracked his knuckles.

"Error, presumed power readings are fare below current results, with a difference of 500% greater, altering strategy." Android Super 19 raised his arms and charged towards Goku.

"Don't let him grab you Kakkorot, those objects in his hand absorb energy, use melee only." Vegeta charged at Dr. Gero who had a look of surprise on his face, "Vegeta saw through my absorption pads? How?"

Goku dodged Super Android 19 with ease. It wasn't even a proper match, especially since Goku noticed how often the Andriod reached out with open palms and grabs.

Vegeta, on the other hand, was surprised to see how strong Dr. Gero's new body was.

Dr. Gero was able to keep up with his Super Saiyan form with ease, Vegeta punched and kicked up a storm, only for Gero to doge every one of them.

Instead of getting pissed off, Vegeta's Saiyan blood began to Boil, "Yes! This is what I hoped for, a challenge! Don't disappoint me now, Android-Man!"

Vegeta offered his arm, and because Gero was no fighter, he didn't know it was bait. Like a predictable rookie, he fell for it, hook, line, and sinker.

As soon as he reached out grab in order to absorb Vegeta's Ki, Vegeta smirked and swiftly transformed into Super Saiyan 2 for a split second.

At that moment, his fingers balled up into a fist before it shot out past his target's defenses.

Dr. Gero felt intense pain coming from the depths of his bowels, "Why did I install pain receptors?" he thought as Vegeta's fist stretched out his gut like it was made of rubber.

Vegeta took a step forward twisted his fist before he swung in an arc. Gero's body reeled back violently, his arms snapped outward while his body turned into a rocket that went flying into the distance.

The force from Vegeta's attack sent the Android flying into a nearby pillar of rocks at supersonic speeds. A series of loud and successive explosions were heard for miles as Gero went through ten different rock pillars.

Massive eruptions of debris and dust hailed down from the sky while a plume of smoke rose up.

The group was quiet.

Vegeta smirked and watched as Goku had grabbed the stunned Android's arms and started to tear on them in a similar fashion Vegeta did to the original timeline.

Goku's feet stomped into Super Android 19 and with a simple pull, yanked his arms off.

"Sorry, but I can't have you destroying my planet, but thanks for the fun fight!" Goku powered up a Kamehameha and blasted the remains of Super 19 into dust.

Vegeta clapped, "Well done Kakkorot, now for the other one."

Dr. Gero's eyes widened, "How is this possible!?" He then clicked his teeth and looked back at Vegeta before letting his eyes drift across the rest of the Z fighters.

Quickly dashed over to who he thought was the weakest of the group, Gero attempted to attack Krillin from behind and take him hostage.

Krillin's eyes widened as he suddenly rolled forward narrowly avoiding Dr. Gero's grasp. He powered up with a Kaio-Zenken Times 150 and kicked Gero's face into the ground.

"Thought I was the weak-link, didn't ya, robot man?" Krillin chuckled as he stared down at the weakened Cyborg.

Gero jumped back and shouted, "Damn you!" as he tried to grab Krillin again.

"Well, you're wrong," Krillin said while he sidestepped the attack and landed a solid punch against Dr. Gero's waist, sending him flying back into another rock formation.

"I'm actually the strongest human on this planet," Krillin blew the dust off his knuckles.

"I'd like to contest to that," Tienshinhan raised all three brows.

"You want a piece of this? And are you even human? Aren't you like, part god or something?" Krillin bravely mocked.

The two smirked and laughed before Vegeta landed next to Krillin.

Vegeta chuckled as he powered down and said, "Well done human, that technique is equal to a Super Saiyan 2 power-up."

Krillin rubbed his nose and laughed, "I've been working on this technique to catch up with Goku."

Goku smiled, "I haven't fought you in a long time! It will be fun!"

Dr. Gero quickly caused an explosion with a rage-fueled yell, "I will kill you all!"

"I heard that line before," Vegeta chuckled as Gero screamed in anger.

Dr. Gero then jumped at the crowd and threw out a strange grenade. A blinding flash of light went off that was similar to a full-powered solar flare.

Everyone covered their eyes while feeling the blinding sensation that nearly scorched their retinas.

"Aghh! So that's what getting hit with the Solar Flare feels like," Vegeta groaned as he tried to shake it off.

When they opened them, Dr. Gero had gone, "He ran!" Gohan shouted.

"We can't sense his Ki!" Piccolo growled.

Vegeta tilted his head and said, "Fan out, he couldn't have gotten far."

Everyone scattered off in different directions and began searching for the runaway doctor. After a few minutes of searching, the Z-Fighters sensed Bulma flying over with Future Trunks behind her.

Vegeta smiled and flew over to meet them.

"Vegeta!" Bulma shouted before jumping into his arms.

Vegeta hugged her back and looked over to his future-timeline son and said, "It's good to see you, what brings you back?"

"Someone stole the time machine in my timeline. I figured that I might as well help you kill the androids while I'm here as well." Trunks replied.

Vegeta smiled and pointed back to the pile of ash, "That fatso and the white-haired guy aren't much trouble. I'll admit, that Android Super 19 was as strong as our base Super Saiyan forms, but Super Saiyan 2 seems to be out of their reach."

"White-haired guy? Fatso? Super Android 19!?" Trunk's eyes widened.

"Those don't sound like 17, or 18 at all! What's going on!?" Trunks shouted as the rest of the Z fighters arrived.

He then explained that the androids they were fighting weren't the same ones in his future, in fact, even Android 19 and Doctor Gero seemed a bit too powerful.

"Energy absorption? You're telling me, they can absorb our Ki! This is bad, really bad!" Trunks started to stress out.

"Calm down moron!" Vegeta slapped the back of Trunk's head. "I assume you know who created the Androids right?"

Trunks shook his head and relaxed, "Actually, yes, we did some investigating in my timeline and discovered the location of Dr. Gero's lab. After you used the dragon balls, we realized that Gero must have been resurrected by the wish as well, and we were right. After killing him and destroying his base, we discovered a bunch of new blueprints in a hidden basement, we also found a remote that can disable the Androids. However, our timelines are so different I'm not sure if the information is any good."

"Well, what are you waiting for?" Vegeta said slapping his hand against Trunk's shoulder.

"Lead the way!" Goku shouted, excited that these other Androids might be able to offer them a fight.

Trunks nodded his head and started to fly off towards Gero's lab. Along the way, Gero, who was stealthily making his way back, noticed them flying above.

The brain-in-a-bot quickly dashed for cover, tucking his body behind a large stone pillar while he hid and observed them.

"Where are they headed? Wait, they're headed towards my LAB!!" Dr. Gero started to worry, "Damnit, why do they know so much!?" In Gero's desperation, he quickly started to pick up the pace.

Gero had risked revealing himself several times before he managed to reach his lab, but thanks to his advanced computation power, he accomplished his task without notifying the Z-Fighters.

When he reached his lab, Dr. Gero immediately activated Android Zero, Android 2, and 3.

Dr. Gero was designated as Android 1.

2 and 3 came after and were much more advanced. One was in the shape of a young maiden that resembled, Dr. Gero's wife.

Similar to Android 21, she had a very curvaceous figure, long bushy auburn hair, blue eyes, and was approximately 5 feet and 7 inches tall.

She wore a gold ring on her left middle finger, a pair of golden hoop earrings.

A large white Doctors Coat was worn over with a sleeveless blue and red short dress, beneath it was a pair of black stockings, and around her arms were thin black arm sleeves.

Around Android 2's feet were a pair of blue and red heel boots that gave another 2 inches to her height.

The next to stand up was a tall man with wild and long black hair. On his face was a cross-shaped scar, his eyes were pitch black, he stood at 5feet; 11 inches tall, and his body was shaped with a fighter-type build only long-standing martial artists could achieve.

Android 3 was originally the long-lost Yamcha.

After being losing touch with the group when Vegeta first arrived, Yamcha decided to return to the Desert. Unfortunately, this ended up spelling his doom.

Dr. Gero eventually came across him when he was alone and out of the public eye. Since Gero was in need of experimental subjects, he decided because of Yamcha's high Ki levels, the once Desert Bandit was perfect to use in an experiment.

Dr. Gero soon discovered the results of this experiment were fascinating, to say the least.

Other than Android Zero, Yamcha was his strongest creation yet, only slightly stronger than Android 2, which was still thousands of times stronger than himself.

The only advantage Gero gave himself over the rest was the ability to absorb energy, the same perfected one that absorbed through the skin rather than the pads on 19's hands.

In time, Gero might have been able to grow stronger than even his greatest creation in the basement.

Android Zero was made to absorb all of his previous creations. All of his old projects were updated to the best of his current ability before being absorbed into Zero's body, making him the only true Android.

While he and the remaining Cyborgs were Human in origin, Android 2 and 3 had their cells altered on a physiological scale, giving them cells from the most powerful warriors on earth.

Other than human cells, Android 2 was given Frost Demon's genetics that gave her incredible potential for Ki Growth, Saiyan Transformation genetics, and Namekian's genetics for regeneration.

While Yamcha was given a fusion of Saiyan Zenkai genetics traits, Frost Demon Ki growth, and the Namekian Regeneration Factor, along with brand new infinite energy reactors.

As a bonus, the two Cyborgs also sported bombs that could destroy the entire solar system.

Gero woke them up and shouted, "Son Goku and his friends are headed here! Time to go to battle!"

Android 2 shook her head, "What about Cell?"

"He's not done yet, and he still has to absorb Android Zero." Gero snapped back at the doll he turned his wife into.

"What about this guy?" Yamcha said looking at a pod labeled S16, "I thought you got rid of all your old projects."

"Danmit Android 3, don't touch him! He's...too broken to absorb." Dr. Gero shouted.

Yamcha smiled and made his move, he grabbed Gero's arm and twisted to inspect the microscopic absorption device built into the pores in his hand, "This is new. Why didn't we get one of these?"

(A/N: Come on, be honest. You all thought I gave ol'Yamcha the TFS treatment, didn't ya?)
