Better time

I called out to 18 as she opened her eyes. "Heya! Sis, you really took a nap there. You cool down enough to think straight?"

"What just happened? Did you let him go?"

I nodded, "Why not, though he did get under your skin didn't he? Rare to see you so angry."

18 shook her head, "It was a tad overboard... 17 what are you thinking though?"

I tapped my nose, ah she knew me too well. "I want to be a park ranger!"

She looked at me, "B-but, you can just."

I took a breath, "Hear me out, I get to beat up poachers, I get to see nature and exotic creatures everyday. Finally, I get to wear a cool hat and look down on tourists!"

18 shook her head, "Really? Are you kidding me? Is this about the wish he mentioned? You can literally wish for like anything, like a million Zeni or a bigger dick."

I frowned, "My dick is fine, and I clearly don't need a million Zeni. I mean are we paying for stuff right now?"

18 paused as she got up. "Okay that's fair I guess. Why did you let him go then?"

I shrugged, "The guy didn't get any stronger, yet he came up with a plan to beat you. Using our own arrogance to beat you too. Besides why kill him when we can just have him hunt down Gero instead of us."

18 thought about it, "That is true. Knowing Gero if he uploaded his brain to a computer who knows what else he will do. Why were we even destroying shit by the way?"

That was a hard question, it wasn't really any particularly reason besides testing how strong we were. So I gave a meaningless gesture that made 18 sigh. "Fine we will do it your way."

I dropped to the ground before I fell to the ground. i had spent just about all the energy I could afford. I barely made it to Capsule Corp. I opened the door and wandered forward. I waved to the secretary at the front desk and entered the lab.

"Alright, I don't wanna jinx it. However I think I got the androids to stop blowing shit up."

Dr.Briefs pulled a pair of goggles up, "How did you manage that?"

I plopped down on a chair, "By appealing to their boredom. Told them about the dragon balls talked about wishes. General things."

Dr.Briefs got me, but it was Bulma that responded. "So you didn't fight them?"

I shook my head, "Nope, I did fight them, actually used all my energy to blast one to sleep. So I gotta just recover my ki."

Dr.Briefs spoke, "Would you like something to eat?"

I gave a shrug, "I don't wanna bother Mrs.Briefs. Anyway, you mentioned that the androids may not be the his actual weapon?"

Bulma waved a special wrench that reminded me of something like a tire iron. "Yeah something like that. Basically each of the androids all have two sets of blue prints. One is their base blue prints and the other is something like a phantom blue print that only is completed when combined with other androids."

Bulma put down the tools and picked up a cup and drank from it. "From what I matched up, they all combine into 2 other blue prints. One is some kind of bio android that I think uses 17 and 18 as its components. I can't confirm obviously since number one it is completely different from the others since its biological. The second problem is that I don't have 17 and 18's blueprints. However it is safe to say that they are the base components to make this bio-android into his complete form."

I looked at her quizzically, "You said two phantom blueprint?"

She nodded, as she drank so Dr.Brief took the stand for his daughter. "Eh, that one is something I can hardly believe. You see I studied with Gero in the past I met his wife his son. i know what they look like. Simply put, Gero has a blueprint of an already built version of his son and a not yet complete blueprint of his wife. The one of his wife uses some kind of unknown substance he found underground."

Unknown substance? They saw the look on my face and explained, "Some kind of pink goo we have no idea. Closest thing we can think of is a type of sticky gum that Preanadon's produce. So do you think you can get strong enough to beat whatever comes next?"

I gave a heavy sigh. I honestly had no idea, however whatever it was I would have to get stronger than the two sibling androids to beat it. Guess it was time to go find Piccolo and do some good old fashion sparring. If it comes to it me and him can always tag team the threat, hell Gohan could help as well.
