Driving was a new experience for me, though Dr Gero had left instructions how to
drive in my memory banks it was one thing to think it and another to actually.
Though I would never admit it to him I was slightly jealous that he was a better
driver than I was. I was a bit too small to drive mine properly and the interior
was a little too large. His car was also faster. Once he really got up to speed
I couldn't catch him. But what was I thinking about, driving cars was stupid.
Flying was a much better gift. I was able to move much faster and it was much
more exhilarating to be able to go in any of the three dimensions. I kept
feeling what a disadvantage it was not being able to go up or down but this was
a pet interest of 17. I could see he was still slightly annoyed about what I had
done earlier. What he would have said was that he was just having fun but it was
really time wasting. Where was Goku and why wasn't he with his friends? He
should have been at that battle and so should have his son. Something strange
was going on. "Something is going on" I took my eyes off the road to look back
at my bronzed friend. He was sitting in the back seat taking up most of the
room. He had one of those infernal animals on his lap. I think it was the same
dog we had seen earlier. Now I knew what he been doing earlier. But his eyes
were serious as he looked at me. "At Goku's house a fight of some sort was going
on. Gohans power had risen to incredible levels but I couldn't seem to sense who
he was fighting. Then I sensed the biggest power I have ever sensed for a brief
second before it vanished. Gohans power has dropped dramatically since then. I
think he was beaten." "But by who?" "I don't know. It was a new power." "I knew
17 was wrong to waste time." Suddenly I felt a ripple in the air. As I glanced
up I saw what normal to normal people would have been a spec of light but to my
eyes it was revealed as Vegeta. He seemed to be in a real hurry somewhere. I
accelerated forward up to where 17 was weaving about on the road. As I looked
down his eyes were closed and he was listening to some sort of weird music. "Hey
17, pull over" He glanced at me and saw that I meant it. "What's wrong with you
now? I told you we would get you clothes at the next store." "This is more
important." "Ok, whatever you say" Just up ahead of was a bend in the road. We
pulled up and I got out of the Land rover first. The step was too high and I had
to jump from it to the ground. I walked over towards 17's car, which had pulled
to a halt. He still hadn't got out of his car. He still was annoyed at me. "This
isn't the time for that." 16 had followed behind me. "16 says there's something
going on at Goku's place. We've wasted too much time trying too get there." 17
had finally turned back to me. "What do you want to do?" "I don't know." "One of
you two could head over to Goku's." "Only one of us 16?" "Less chance of getting
noticed." "Why should we have to hide?" "Dr Gero fitted me with sensory systems.
I sensed a power from Goku's which was higher than yours 17. We should be
careful." "Your sensors are on the blink 16. I'm the most powerful entity on
this planet. Nothing can stand up to my power!" I looked across at 16. He had a
curious expression on his face. I couldn't tell what he was thinking. "If you
are so keen to go 18 go on right ahead. It might be interesting to know what
they are planning. Its obvious that they will being thinking of some method to
beat us." He smiled "Like that would ever happen." "It would be wise not to
underestimate them. If Dr Gero was able to turn us off they might be able to do
the same thing." 17 grin faded "Bulma, of course Dr Gero says that she is very
intelligent." "And she has a company behind her. It might be wise to shut them
down." "Ok, I'll do that. What about you 16?" "It would be best if we didn't
travel alone. Stay close to the Z fighters. It'll be protection." "They protect
me 16? Your circuits must be really round the bend. We just beat them up" His
only answer was a short smile. "Are you two sure you want me to go? Me with the
only brain of this trio" I jumped up into the air and started to fly before 17
could make a reply. I was wasting time. I could only faintly see signs of
Vegeta's aura. I would have to hurry if I was to catch up with him.

I turned to 16, who was standing behind me. "You heard what the girl said. Lets
go." I turned towards the car and started the ignition. I accelerated her out
into the road raising a cloud of dust behind me. After a couple of minutes I was
surprised when I didn't hear the sound of a car behind me so I glanced over my
shoulder. 16 was flying beside my car with something brown in his arms. He
obviously didn't like driving. Ahead of me there were other cars but not much. I
checked the time on the dashboard to see that it was 2.30. The motorway would be
relatively free for about an other hour and then it would become packed. I had
better hurry. Traffic jams would be boring. I accelerated the car till was close
on its max. The car seemed to shake a bit at it reached its top speed. I was in
the centre lane dodging round the other slower cars. Why couldn't 18 see the
real joy in driving cars at high speed? She seemed to treat her car just like a
mode of transport and she had no eye for a proper piece of equipment. Her large
van had no other purpose in life other than to be dumped. She should relax a
bit. If she tried to fight everyone within the first day we would have nothing
else for all the years to come. A siren drew my attention back to the road. It
was coming from behind the hill just in front of me. The road wound round it so
my view was blocked. Anything could be waiting for me around that corner. I
would be playing a little game with the police now. I had to try and keep my car
in as good a condition as I could and they would obviously try and destroy it.
The fact that I was in no personal danger did take a little of the flavour from
the experience but I would try and ignore that. This would show how good a
driver I was. I slowed down as I reached the corner and started to glide round
the bend sticking close to the apex. The slower I started the corner the faster
I could accelerate. Some fool then took this opportunity to try and pass me. He
was in one of the new flying cars and from the cut of his suit I could see he
was a businessman. He was going to get in my way. I started to accelerate now
that I had moved enough round the corner. The man tried to block me but with a
quick twist of the wheel I dodged round him. As I pulled along side he scowled
and stuck up his fingers at me. This surprised me. I thought I was supposed to
be the irresponsible teenager and him the adult. Well I would have to teach him
some manners. I jerked the wheel so that I crashed into the bottom of his car.
Before he could react I had leaped from my car up to his. He turned to face me,
and I could see he was a flabby man of a fat build. "I need your car."
"W-w-what?" I lifted him up and threw him to the ground. I don't know wither he
lived or not. I then looked up the road. The police had formed some sort of
roadblock. Within seconds I was back in my car and starting to accelerate again.
As I began to near their block I saw that there was a wall of police cars and
the officers were behind those with their weapons. As I closed with them they
began to fire. They obviously weren't going to try and give me a chance to give
up. Bullets began to fly past me. Their aim didn't seem to be too great. Just
after I thought that their machine gun spoke up. Five bullets hit into my car
before I swerved the car to the left. I was 400 feet from them now and their aim
seemed to be getting better. My car was hit three more times before I moved
again. I was aware all the time that it would only take one shot to destroy my
car. The machine gun tried to get me in its sights a couple more times but I was
weaving too much. At 200 feet there seemed to be a pause in their fire.
Reloading were they, I smiled it looked like I had one. I didn't notice the
missile until it was too late. I could have hit it but that was against my
rules. As the car exploded round me my only thought was Police 1Me 1.

There seemed to be some sort of meeting in progress around the prostrate figure
of Gohan. I recognised Krillen and Vegeta but the young boy was still a mystery.
I had landed beside a tree and was staring from behind it at them. It wasn't
that I was scared of them but I knew I could learn more from them if they didn't
know that I was there. The young boy and Krillen seemed to be very upset and
once I focused on Gohan I saw why. There was a bleeding hole on his chest and I
read from his ashen expression that he wasn't far from dying. All around me the
ground was broken up and there was evidence of an intense fight. Vegeta wasn't
with the other two. He seemed to be searching about on the ground for something.
Suddenly he dived down and brought up a body. As I started at his red uniform I
thought Goku? But then Vegeta threw him at the other three and I saw that it was
Yamsha. He was unconscious. Vegeta landed beside the other two. "Kakorot isn't
anywhere near here. Where did he run to leaving you to fight on your own?" Who
was Kakorot? Gohan started to cough. "Dad didn't run away." A tear dripped from
on of his eyes. "She killed him." "Don't try to talk Gohan. We will get you to
help. The boy started to try and lift Gohan but a groan from the former stopped
him. "Don't Trunks, I know I'm going to die. I would prefer to die here, at
home." "You can't die Gohan. Not after, after all we've been through. Come on
buddy even Freesia could kill you." I noticed that the mention of that name
seemed to strike Vegeta. A vein appeared on his forehead. Vegeta must have had a
bad experience with that person. Gohan coughed again "I must tell you something
before its too late. In my last battle I became a Super Sayain." "What!" All
three stared at him in amazement. What was a Super Sayain? There were too many
new names being used today. "But it wasn't enough. I was fighting against a
female." "Android 18!" the boy gasped "Not again! I've let her kill Gohan
twice!" Twice! I haven't even killed him once. But how could Gohan have died
before. Something confusing was happening. Gohan started to cough violently
spitting blood everywhere. "It couldn't have been, it couldn't…. be…an Android….
Because, because she, she." Gohan's head fell back and his head fell to the
ground. "NOO!!" The boy's head was flung back and his hair was hanging down to
his shoulders. The small bald man was staring at the ground with tears in his
eyes. Vegeta's was face was slightly pale but other than that he wasn't showing
any emotion. Suddenly Vegeta's eyes met mine. "Android!" he shouted.
