Android 17
The note of the engine on the car than I had picked sounded good but it wasn't
the best. On the other hand I hadn't picked the best garage in the world. It had
none of the new flying cars after all. As I smashed through the glass and pulled
a perfect handbrake turn I noticed something important. 16 was to big to fit in
the car. It only had two seats anyway. "You will have to leave that one and pick
another" 18 commented smiling as she exited the building. "Not necessarily. You
guys can take another car." 18 shook her head as she walked away "To be cursed
with a mad brother." I smiled, 18 would be happy enough once we reached a
clothes store and it wouldn't matter to her how long she spent in there. Turning
my attention back to the store I noticed there was panic in there. Some female
human was screaming and there seemed to be a panic. Why were they making such a
fuss, it was only a simple heist? Some men had made there way to the window and
were peering out. Faintly at first and then louder and louder sirens started to
ring. A cop chase? This day was certainly turning out to be very interesting. 16
and 18 seemed to have finally picked a car. It was a Land rover, a large ugly
car. Nothing I would ever like to drive but it was one of the few that 16 could
fit in. Motioning at them I jammed my foot down on the accelerator. Even at high
speeds I was able to negotiate between the cars very easily. I was used to
moving at 50 times this speed normally after all. As I skidded round the last
bend I saw the exit in front of me. The road was long and straight but closing
in on the garage were four sets of flashing lights in front of me. Checking my
rear-view mirror I saw that 18 was still quite close behind me. I flattened my
foot on the peddle and my car jerked forward as it started to accelerate. See if
you can keep up with that I thought. As I neared the police cars I saw they were
riding in a formation of three tight together blocking the road. Excellent, a
game of chicken. This would be good. The wind was blowing through my hair and
the sun was shining down. Perfect weather for a car chase. I wondered which of
the three would turn. The middle one couldn't move so one of the side cars would
have to let it out if they did decide to do so. The cars were almost on me now.
500 meters, 400, 200, 50,. I could now see the drivers clearly. All three were
humans two men and one woman. The man who was in front of me was old, his hair
was a dark grey. I met his eyes and grinned. His eyes which were determined
suddenly filled with fear. He knew I wasn't going to budge. He tried to turn to
his partners but it was too late. 10 meters, 5, 3, 1. Smoke suddenly filled my
eyes and all around me My ears were also filled with the sound of an explosion.
I turned back to see what was going on. Two of the cars remained, the other
destroyed. Seconds later a land rover exited the cloud. 18's hand was still
sticking out of the window. She was still smirking as she pulled up to me.
"Spoilsport" "You are wasting too much time" I turned away from her and
accelerated forward at bit. Now that I had some time I checked out the interior
of the car. The seats were leather and the dashboard was too small. It only
really had room for a radio and a CD player. But there were no CDs so I was
forced to scan the waves. Country Western music filled my ears. No way.

I closed my eyes and started to try and sense power levels to get an idea were
everyone was. There was one power from the north coming towards me at a fast
pace and two more from the south. Another was way above me and I could sense a
Super Sayain quite far off. It must be Vegeta I supposed. But the northern power
was the closest. It would be one me in under a minute. I opened my eyes and
focused them on the white light. As he came closer I recognised the mass of
hair. Gohan, just perfect. The next fighter I had wanted to kill. He didn't
notice me at first. He was headed straight for his house. He stopped in the air
shocked as he saw the large crater. "Daddy?" he asked softly. "He's dead." He
turned quickly. "What did you say?" he asked. "Goku is dead. I killed him." He
took it badly. Tears filled his eyes. "He can't be dead. Daddy!!!" "And you're
next" Sorrow turned to anger quickly. "You monster!. You killed him! You killed
my father" I smiled for second but it died suddenly as I watched the fire in
front of me. He seemed to be powering up A vein appeared on his forehead and his
eyes were no longer that of a child but that of a beast. Suddenly his power
level rocketed and he blasted forehead. punching me in the stomach. As I fell
forward he kicked my head and punched me again. I fell toward the ground before
stopping myself in the air. I couldn't see him any longer. How could his power
level be so large? He was more than I had estimated. A fist punched my spine and
then I was hit again by a double punch. This time I couldn't stop myself and I
went headfirst into the ground. Pulling my head out of the ground I just managed
to see yellow blasts thundering down towards me. Pulling my arms in-front of my
face I prepared to last out the onslaught. Blast after blast thumped me back
ward pushing me deeper and deeper into the ground. He wasn't giving me time to
power up. If I tried I wouldn't be able to defend against his attacks. My anger
against myself increased. I had underestimated my opponent. How could I be so
wrong? I wanted a challenge but I didn't want to die. Suddenly the blasts
stopped. I took my arms from my face slowly expecting a trap. My eyes widened.
Gohan's power was increasing again. As I focused up at him I saw he was charging
some sort of beam above his head. He could concentrate his power into attacks? I
only had seconds to prepare before I heard him scream "MASSENKA HA!!" The beam
lanced down towards me at amazing speed. I thrust my hands out in front of me to
try and stop his attack. As it hit my hands it threw me backwards again. The
power was too big. My hands were burning up trying to stop it. My head and back
smashed against rock as my tunnel downwards increased. My elbows suddenly bent
outwards and the beam was inches from my chest and face. The heat was incredible
and I was struggling to keep my hands on it. A little closer and I would be
fried. My eyes were screwed shut and I was screaming trying to push it back. My
decent into the earth seemed to have slowed down. My back broke through one last
wall and I felt nothing behind me. I must be in some sort underground cave I
thought. Suddenly I felt heat lick against my back. Why would there be heat
underground? My eyes jerked open. Lava! I was now between two death points. Lava
and the beam which was still pushing me back ward. I redoubled my efforts to try
and push it back. I was sweating visibly at this point and my uniform was
scratched and dented. My tail which was below me touched something boiling hot
and shot upwards. I was meters away from my destruction. I suddenly felt power
inside me. At last, I thought grimly. Just then also the beam seamed to weaken.
Gohan must have stopped it. With an effort I managed to get it away from me.
Pausing only a second I shot forwards aware that the lava was following me. In
front of me I saw day light and I shot out into it. Seconds after I left the
tunnel the lava followed me out. But it was only a tiny eruption and most it
sank back down the hole. Before I did anything else I knew I had to power up.
Gohan didn't seem to be here. Closing my eyes I concentrated on the power inside
me magnifying it and pushing it higher and higher. I was aware of an aura
surrounding my body. It intensified and got greener and greener until I couldn't
see though it. My muscles bulged slightly especially on my thighs and shoulders.
I felt a great calm as I reached my pinnacle power. I dropped most of the aura
as I didn't want to waste it. Gohan didn't stand a chance of fighting me at this
power. I was many, many times more powerful than he was now. I was at about the
power of a Super Sayain. I was slightly less powerful than Vegeta. I started to
hunt down Gohan. He had hurt me and I didn't want him to get away with that. I
searched the ground with my eyes and with my mind. The two southern powers were
still coming in my direction but they wouldn't be with me for about five
minutes. I suddenly saw Gohan below me. He was at the edge of the crater of what
had been his house with another figure. As I came closer I saw that it was a
woman who I didn't recognise. The only woman I had seen with the Z fighters was
one they called Bulma but this wasn't her. She must have been badly injured in
the blast. Her chest and legs were a mass of blood. As I landed she seemed to
roll her eyes back and she died. Gohan's eyes were streaming again but with a
velocity that I had never seen before. This must have been his mother. I
hesitated and then I stopped my advance. I couldn't kill him now. It was against
all the codes of combat even my thin morals. Though I attacked a sleeping man I
wouldn't attack him with his dead mother. I turned away from him. I would go
fight the Androids instead. "Hey you! Where do you think you are going?" His
words were thick with emotion, sadness and anger. As I turned to look at him I
felt slightly uneasy. His face had changed a great amount. It was now reflecting
a huge build up of anger. His fists were tight and his forehead had three or
four veins in it. Things were looking up. I would get a fight now. He was
shaking visibly and his eyes though hate filled were still dripping tears. I
think my face might have shown too much of a smile because something inside him
seemed to snap. He started to scream again at the clouds "Mother! Father!" His
power started to rise again. I prepared myself as it came close to where it had
been before but it kept rising. The flash of yellow across his face suddenly
revealed to me what was happening. He was going Super Sayain! Now I would see if
I was right about my power. His hair started to rise and flash yellow and black.
His eyes were also flashing in and out of green. Just as I began to think he
couldn't change there was a large yellow explosion. I held my arms in front of
my eyes again until the dust started to clear. He was no longer shaking. It
would have looked like a great calm had entered him other than his dark green
eyes. I could see he despised and hated me at this moment. But he was able to
contain that hate at least for a while. For the first time he seemed to size me
up. I could see he was surprised at what he saw. One of may advantages was that
I didn't look threatening. I didn't even really look like a fighter. "Are you a
relation to Freesia?" This comment really threw me. "Not in any respect at all
do am I like him" "You are both evil monsters who get defeated by Super Sayains.
I smiled at this, he certainly had some wit. "You think that's funny do you.
What about this?!" He leaped but I expected him this time. Leaping into the air
I powered forward aware he was behind me. Suddenly I wiped round slashing at him
with my tail. He managed to dodge this and tried a punch of his own.
Millisecond's later we were both throwing punch's and kicks at each other. I was
right it seemed. He was roughly equal to me at the moment. But I also knew that
he hadn't uncovered all of his power yet. I was lucky that this was his first
time but I also knew that I had to defeat him quickly before anyone else came or
he uncovered the rest of his powers. I knew now that one of the powers was
Trunks who was a more experienced Super Sayain. Fading quickly I hit at him but
he had already disappeared and was now behind me. As I turned I blasted at him
and he replied in similar. None of mine seemed to hit. I faded again and tried
larger blasts but he was able to block these as well. I was concentrating too
much on attacking him and I didn't notice his attack until it was almost too
late. This would not do. I was running out of time. Trunks was about a minute
away. Suddenly I sensed another huge power coming towards me. Vegeta was also
coming my way. Things were looking a bit hot for me here. I had to leave quickly
but I also couldn't leave Gohan alive. He had seen me and I couldn't allow him
to tell his friends. Suddenly Gohan caught my punch with his hand and I caught
his. We were now in deadlock. My mind was buzzing. I didn't want to kill Goahn
off so quickly but I knew I had to get out of there. Sighing I decided that I
had better leave Gohan alive. It was a pity now that he would be able to tell
his friends about me but the best plans always go array. Suddenly my brain was
racked with pain. Letting go of Goahn I clutched at my head. "No, no I killed
Goku. Isn't that enough? Ahhhhhhhhhhh?" I screamed as the pain mounted. "Ok I'll
kill him" The pain subsided and I was able to look up again. Gohan started
confusedly at me. "You are going to die now." I screamed again as I started my
change. As Gohan watched his eyes seemed to lose their glaze and he stared in
shock which was quite hard for him being Super Sayain. Not giving him time to
recover I jabbed my tail forward into his heart and ripped it out. Sure he was
dying I reverted back to my original form and sped off away.
I'm sorry that this chapter was almost all about my character who isn't not an
Android. Which makes the title wrong which I'm sorry for. The next chapter will
be all about 17 and 18. Can you review now!!!!
