IK91: Welcome back. Here's Chapter One. Don't forget to read and review! :]
Also, I issued a warning in the Author's Note that this story is rated M for a reason. If you skipped that and you're not 17 or older, leave now. I will issue a rating in -every- chapter. I am not getting in trouble because a kid decided to read this story and say "OMG. They're saying bad words!" That is why this story is for mature readers only.
So, without further ado…
Rated R/M: For language, sexuality, and possible crude/violent images.

Chapter One: Three Years from Now...
"My name is Trunks and I have come almost twenty years from the future." A purple-haired boy, around the age of seventeen, spoke.
"From the future?" Goku squealed. He had just returned from his two year voyage in outer space.
Trunks nodded and began again, "Three years from now, two artificial humans will appear. They are artificial humans that Dr. Gero from the Red Ribbon Army has created."
"The same Red Ribbon Army that I destroyed all those years ago?" Goku asked.
"Yes. Dr. Gero survived and continued his research. However, soon after he created the artificial humans, they killed him. They are monsters." Trunks explained.
"Wow. For you to be Super Saiyan and stronger than Freeza, they really must be monsters. Wait! Where's everyone else? Don't you have any allies?" Goku asked.
"No, in the future everyone has lost their lives. Tenshinhan, Chaozu, Yamucha, and even Piccolo. And four years ago, they even killed my master Gohan. As you know, if Piccolo dies, the Dragon Balls disappear so no one could be brought back to life." Trunks said.
"But wait! What about me?" Goku began frantically.
Trunks' face fell. "You don't get even get to fight them Son-san. You contract a rare viral infection in your heart and soon pass away..."
"Man, this sucks! And I wanted to fight them too!" Goku slammed his fist into his open palm.
"You mean, even after I told you what monsters they are, you still want to fight them? You're not scared?" Trunks asked surprised.
"Well, yeah, I'm scared. But it's kind of exciting at the same time…" Goku's face went from angry to sheepish.
Trunks smiled. "Nothing less to expect from a true Saiyan." Trunks reached into the pocket in his jacket and pulled out a small bottle. Trunks tossed the bottle at Goku who caught it easily.
"What's this?" Goku looked at the bottle curiously.
"That's the antidote. There's not any treatment in this era, but they create one twenty years in the future. Take it when you start to notice symptoms." Trunks explained.
Goku jumped up in the air. "This is awesome! Thanks!"
Trunks grinned and said that it was time he left before he altered time too much.
Everyone ran over to Goku when they saw Trunks fly away.
"What did he say, Goku?" Kuririn asked.
Goku rubbed the back of his head, "Nothing much really...hehehe..."
"If you won't tell them, then I will. I'd rather not die in three years." Piccolo gave Goku a look.
"You heard everything he said?" Goku asked.
"Don't worry; I won't say anything that would jeopardize your friend's existence. However, I'm sure everyone would like to train before these new enemies arrive." Piccolo said.
Piccolo explained to everyone what Trunks had said and everyone was stunned.
They all ask Goku why it took him so long to come back to Earth and he explained what happened on Namek and how he escaped. He told them how he got to the planet Yardrat and learned a new technique. Everyone suspected that he probably stayed to train. He shows them his new trick which is instantaneous movement. He comes back with Master Roshi's glasses.
Everyone is amazed. Goku handed Master Roshi's glasses to Kuririn and asked him to give them back to their rightful owner. Kuririn put them on and tried to strike a cool pose.
"Back to the matter at hand…" Piccolo cleared his throat.
"What if we find this Dr. Gero and stop him before he makes the androids?" Bulma's eyes widened at her own great idea.
"If you do that, I will personally kill you!" Vegeta growled. "Some of us actually want to fight." He glared at Bulma.
"Yeah, I want to see how far I've come in my training." Tenshinhan said.
"Goku, knock some sense into them!" Bulma looked at him expecting him to side with her.
"Sorry, Bulma. I wanna fight them too…" Goku told her with a sheepish grin.
Bulma huffed knowing she lost the argument.
Tenshinhan flew off saying that he'll see them in three years.
Vegeta looked at Goku. "I'll train and become stronger, Kakarrot. I will defeat these artificial humans and then it will be your turn."
Goku nodded. He looked forward to the day he would fight Vegeta again.
Vegeta smirked at Goku and flew off.
"Piccolo, do you want to come train with me and Gohan?" Goku was getting excited.
Piccolo smirked. "I was planning on it anyway."
"What about you, Kuririn? Yamucha?" Goku turned toward them.
"Nah, I'll stick to training with Master Roshi." said Kuririn waving a hand in front of his face.
"I don't like to admit it, but I couldn't keep up with your training..." Yamucha's face glowed red a little.
"Alright then! We'll see you in three years!" said Goku.
The trio took off and headed for the house in the mountains.

As soon as they got to the house and explained to ChiChi what was going on, Goku and Gohan found that she was not happy at all.
"I absolutely refuse! Gohan will not waste three years on training when he could be studying! And for you, Goku-san, to say otherwise is ridiculous! What kind of a father are you? Always going off, training or fighting, doing whatever you damn well please! What about me? What about Gohan?" Chichi screamed.
"Are you saying that his studying is more important than saving the Earth? Are you crazy, woman? If there is no Earth, how can he possibly study? Besides, we could use his help! We don't know how strong this new enemy is!" Goku retorted, who was becoming angry now.
"Yes! His studying is MORE important than learning this stupid Kung Fu!" Chichi yelled.
"It's not fucking Kung Fu!" Goku retaliated. He was so angry that he was shaking. Why did she never understand?
"Listen here you big ass monkey! You can choose your family or you can choose to continue your damn training and fighting! Take your pick." Chichi glared at him with her arms crossed.
Gohan stood to the side not knowing what to do. He wanted to fight alongside his friends. He didn't want to spend hours studying when there was a battle brewing.
Goku's face became stern and without hesitating, "I choose to fight."
Chichi's arms fell to her side and she bowed her head.
Goku didn't care. He was not sorry for his decision. If he didn't fight, what kind of future would there be?
Chichi's head snapped up, her face fierce. "Fine! Go off and fight your battles, but don't expect me to be here when you get back to bandage your wounds!" She yelled.
"That's what the fucking senzu beans are for!" Goku tried to restrain himself. Gohan had never heard such language from either of his parents and was afraid to step in.
ChiChi glared at Goku with all the hate she could muster. She brushed past him into their room and began to pack her stuff.
Goku took a deep breath and let it out slowly. He looked at Gohan. "Let's go, Gohan. Piccolo is waiting for us."
The two went outside and began to spar with Piccolo. Neither of them noticed Chichi leaving the house.
-Three hours later-
"Father….what are we going to do about supper?" Gohan asked as he looked at the empty dinner table.
Goku sighed. This was probably the only thing he missed about Chichi.
"Go catch us a fish, Gohan. I'll start a fire." Goku said. Piccolo just shook his head.
-Three Years Later-
"It's almost time…" Piccolo was looking at the sky as if he expected the androids to fly right over him.
Goku nodded. Gohan had just come back from playing with Haiya Dragon.
They had trained for three years straight and were sure that they were ready for this battle.
"Gohan, it's time to go." Goku said. Gohan ran over to him and they took to the sky.
They flew at a normal speed, but Goku noticed Gohan was a little ahead of them. Gohan seemed in a hurry to get there. "Gohan! You don't need to use up your power to get there. We have some time." Goku yelled towards him.
Gohan heard him and slowed down, but pointed in front of him. "Look, father! There's Kuririn!" he yelled back.
Sure enough, they had caught up to Kuririn.
"Aren't you happy to see us, Kuririn?" Goku smiled, asking one of his oldest friends.
"One doesn't feel too cheerful not knowing if their life is going to end today or not, Goku…" Kuririn looked down with a worried look on his face.
"Aw, don't be negative like that!" Goku said with a sweat drop rolling down the side of his face.
"On another note, I'm surprised you're actually already headed this way. I thought Chichi would give you a hard time…" Kuririn gave Goku a side glance.
"Chichi left." Goku replied, his face becoming stoic.
"What? Why?" asked Kuririn, completely surprised.
"She gave me an ultimatum. Family or fight. Which do you think I chose?" asked Goku, keeping his face forward.
"I always thought she was crazy." Kuririn said with a slight smile, hoping it might cheer Goku up a little.
Kuririn noticed the smile on Goku's face as they kept flying.
They finally reached the island and found that Yamucha, Bulma, and Tenshinhan were already there. They all noticed that Bulma had a baby.
"You guys made it!" Yamucha raised his hand at them.
"Yo!" Goku waved.
"You guys finally got married?" asked Gohan innocently, looking at Yamucha and Bulma, referring to the baby.
Yamucha crossed him arms. "That's not my kid. You'll never believe whose it is."
Goku walked over to baby Trunks. "Your pa's Vegeta ain't he, baby Trunks?" Goku made a silly face which made Trunks squeal with delight.
"Goku! How did you know? I didn't contact anyone because I wanted to surprise them!" Bulma exclaimed, who was now shocked.
Goku rubbed the back of his head, laughing. "Maybe I've become psychic?" He said shrugging.
"It's past time. Why haven't they showed up yet?" Piccolo was watching the small city for any sign of the androids.
Everyone looked at Piccolo wondering the same thing. They walked to the edge of the cliff looking down at the city as well.
"Someone's coming!" Tenshinhan pointed toward the sky. A small aircraft was making its way to the cliff.
As it got closer, they realized it was Yajirobe.
"Yajirobe! Did you come to help us fight?" Goku grinned as Yajirobe stepped out of the aircraft.
Yajirobe gave Goku a look that said 'Are you stupid?' and threw a small brown bag at him.
"Those are from Karin-sama." Yajirobe nodded toward the bag.
Goku opened the bag to find at least ten senzu beans.
"Thanks! Are you sure you won't stay and fight with us?" Goku hinted once more.
Yajirobe ignored him and climbed back into the aircraft.
"I'm outta here!" Yajirobe exclaimed as the aircraft blasted off in the direction he came from.
They watched the aircraft get smaller and went to talking about what they thought was going to happen since the artificial humans had yet to show up.
They heard a huge explosion and turned to look to see where it came from.
"That was Yajirobe!" Goku's face became a look of terror.
"The ones who attacked him are still up there! Look!" Piccolo focused in on the two dots in the sky.
They all strained their eyes to see the ones who had attacked Yajirobe. They saw the figures descend from the sky into the city.
"Did you see where exactly they went?" Piccolo looked toward Goku.
Goku shook his head. "We'll have to scour the city…"
"Bulma, you need to get out of here." Kuririn said.
"What! No way! I didn't come all the way out here for nothing! I want to see these so called artificial humans." She bounced Trunks up and down.
"Bulma…you need to go. We don't know what we're dealing with here." Goku stated.
Bulma huffed, but decided to say nothing more. They watched her climb into the aircraft she came in and take off.
"Gohan, you go check on Yajirobe. He should still be alive. Kuririn, you hang on to these." Goku said, throwing the bag of senzu at Kuririn.
"Let's go search the city, you guys." Goku clenched his fists.
They all flew down to the city, going separate ways.
Goku was looking everywhere. He went down each alley and street. There was no way to tell what these androids looked like though.
'We don't know what they look like. How are we supposed to find them? They have no ki…' Goku thought.
He heard a huge explosion behind him and flew off in that direction.
He was shocked to find, when he arrived, a man had his hand on Yamucha's face and his other hand protruded through Yamucha's back.
"Yamucha!" Goku screamed.
The rest of the guys arrived and were shocked to see this as well.
The man threw Yamucha to the ground and stared at Goku.
"Kuririn, take Yamucha somewhere safe and give him some senzu." Goku instructed him. Kuririn gulped and nodded. All of them knew these must be the androids.
"Ah! The infamous senzu bean. Those can't keep you alive forever." The old man finally spoke.
"How do you know about those?" Piccolo yelled at the artificial human.
"I'd rather you tell me how you know what we are and you knew we would be coming to this city…" The older looking android said.
Goku was shaking with anger.
"But, of course, this saves us the trouble of looking for you." The fat, younger looking android finally spoke.
"Yes, you're here to kill me. But why?" Goku asked.
"Because you destroyed the Red Ribbon Army and its dream of world domination." The older android spoke again.
"If you want to fight me, we'll go somewhere with less casualties." Goku commanded them.
"I can easily take care of that." No. 20 said. He looked at a building and red lasers shot out of his eyes. He turned his head, the lasers still going, destroying houses, buildings, and cars.
Goku ran at the android and punched him in the face. "Stop it!" Goku screamed.
"Apparently, this does not satisfy you." No. 20 stared at Goku with a blank face as if the punch did not faze him.
Goku glared at him. "Follow me. There will be no casualties where we go."
They all took to the sky and flew to a secluded area of land.
They landed and stared at each other for awhile.
"There is no chance you will beat us." No. 19 had a small smirk on his face.
"We've watched you for years, Goku. Since you destroyed the Red Ribbon Army." No. 20 said believing Goku didn't stand a chance.
No. 20 went on to tell them how Dr. Gero spied on them with little robots in all their battles and created androids that could withstand their power.
"So, you didn't spy on our battle that took place on Namek?" Goku asked.
"There was no need. We had all the information we needed." No. 20 shrugged.
"Hardly," Goku scoffed. "You missed the most important battle and power up."
Goku clenched his fists, bent his knees, and began to concentrate his power. He was breathing hard and felt sort of weak. He turned Super Saiyan and began breathing harder.
No. 19 flew at Goku and they began trading punches with one another.
As the fight went on, Yamucha, Kuririn, and Gohan arrived at the scene.
"I have to tell Goku what those androids can do!" Yamucha was terrified.
"What do you mean?" Tenshinhan asked.
"They drain your energy with their hands. They zap it all…" Yamucha explained with a scared look on his face.
"Look at Father!" Gohan shouted. Goku was getting beat up, but Gohan noticed he was clenching his chest.
"What the…" Kuririn started.
"He's sick! It's the viral heart infection!" Realization hit Gohan like a brick.
Goku slammed into the ground. No. 19 sat upon him and grabbed his neck. He began to drain Goku's energy.
"I can't…stop him…my energy…" Goku thought.
He felt the android kicked off of him and opened his eyes a little. He saw Vegeta standing there glaring at him. He could barely make out what Vegeta was saying to him.
And Goku didn't know what happened next, for he blacked out, dead to the world.

IK91: NO! Not dead, dead. Just unconscious. So, don't freak out, okay?
So, this doesn't confuse anyone…when the android asks how they know what they are, it's because Yamucha had already figured it out before other others arrived on the scene. I didn't want to have to go through explaining what happened to Yamucha. In my opinion, he's a wimp. But, we won't talk about that! :]
Also, for all the ChiChi lovers who are trying my story out…I want you to know that I'm watching DBZ season five right now and ChiChi is taking care of Goku while he is sick. I feel a pang in my heart. However, I like my couple a little bit better. Haha. Sorryyyy.
And I'm sure she wouldn't refer to their fighting as 'kung fu' since she is/was a martial artist, but they're angry…and this is -my- story. So go with the flow. :P
Review and stay tuned!
