Chapter 13: Dammit Gohan Chp 11
#VEGITO POV#
"No," I tell Gohan seriously as to what he is planning on doing
"We might not have a choice," He retorts
"And...Gohan we are so close to getting rid of the androids, literally less than a week, if you go..."
"I don't have a choice, they haven't seen me in some time so either I go fight them or they come looking for me when they get bored," He retorts back to me while I try to hold back a snarl getting real angry for the first time in a while
"Gohan, we have to wait," I tell him but he simply turns around while Trunks looks on helplessly
"Gohan wait please, you don't have to do this..." I tune them out as I try to sense any more people being killed around the planet
I easily find them
Dozens of them are being killed at a time
I frown as I stop myself from getting angry knowing that even if I did, I am not strong enough to do anything about it
I watch Gohan fly away as I turn toward Trunks
"Trunks we shall give Gohan a headstart before going after him," I order him which makes him go silent
"Now," I say after a bit as my Ki surges around me as Trunks and I begin to chase after Gohan
Damn it all Gohan
You better not die or lose a fucking arm
After flying for a bit, I sense Gohan is already starting fight
Fuck it
I turn Super Saiyan and arrive a fair distance away from the city
I watch Gohan confronting the androids while cursing Gohan's ancestors to the eighteenth-generation
I grab Trunks and pull him with me to the ground as I keep an eye on Gohan's fight with the androids
Drawing from my inherited memories, I can tell that Gohan is putting up a decent fight against them
But...he is still clearly losing
I take this damm opportunity to at least learn how the androids are fighting and to my surprise and horror, I make a startling realization
They are skilled
Incredibly so
They are taking advantage of Gohan's own inexperience to play around with him
I am not even sure if Gohan is noticing it himself
But, every time Gohan actually manages to surprise one of them, they start to adapt and do their best to block that hole in their defenses
I watch as Gohan starts getting tired but I do take note of his power
Training on the ship has definitely helped him get stronger
Soon enough, Gohan starts getting the shit beaten out of him as he detransforms from being exhausted
I take a deep breath as 18 gets closer to him
"Trunks, go back to the Lookout, I will take Gohan there but return discreetly," I order him before turning back to Gohan
This is going to hurt
A lot
I turn Super Saiyan, and then I do the stupidest thing I can think of...
"Kaio-ken times 3," I say while my body begins creaking as my bones strain against my muscles
I rush toward Gohan as 18 has an evil smile on her face while holding Gohan's arm
I punch 18 sending her flying through multiple buildings before I grab Gohan who is already knocked out unconscious and begin flying away as fast as I can
While I fly away, I catch a glimpse of 17 making his way over to 18
I growl in anger as I see Trunks still staring at the place Gohan was
I turn around and fight through the pain
I almost pass out as blood comes from my mouth
I grab Trunks as I go as fast as I can
(Not good, I can feel myself getting weaker) I think through the pain
After a bit I lose my sense of direction before everything goes dark and I have one thought left in my mind as I pass out
Damn it Gohan...
#SOMETIME LATER#
I groan as I wake feeling pain all over my body
"Careful," I hear a familiar voice say
A voice I recognize
"You hurt yourself pretty badly," I hear Bulma say
I stop trying to move as I try to circulate my Ki around my body to try and alleviate some of the pain
I do my best to ignore the pleasant feeling spreading around me
It's like someone just splashed a bucket of water on me after being in a desert for a while
I open my eyes and even though it takes me a few moments to focus a bit, I look at Bulma standing by the door
I blink a few times as I feel my Ki stop circulating for a moment before I begin to do so again
"You...are out," I croak out
"Surprised," She says back with a cocky smirk as I feel her power
My eyes widened due to how much I had to concentrate in order to do so
But once I do, I let out a gasp of surprise
She is...is 3/5 as strong as Gohan while in Super Saiyan
"So, how are you feeling?" She asks breaking me out of my thoughts
"Like shit," I answer her
"Hold on, let me try something," She says getting closer to me, and through my blurry vision I see her walking toward me
As she gets closer to me, I see her coming into focus
I blink once as I see her face
She looks...younger
I take the opportunity as she gets closer to me to actually see the changes on her body as she is wearing a black tank top
She has muscles now
Similar to Saiyan women on Planet Vegeta except that hers are slimmer, I can tell that much
I look her in the eyes as she places her right hand in the middle of my chest before
I wince in pain but relax as I feel her transferring some of her energy to me
Helping me recover a bit
"Gohan taught me how to give my energy to someone since I asked for some small lessons," She says the moment I open my mouth
"Where is Gohan?" I ask her
"Gohan and Trunks are in the Time Chamber, they will only be there for a month or so and that is for Gohan to finish recovering from his own injuries," She answers as she takes her hand away
She brushes away some sweat from her forehead
"Still getting used to controlling Ki," She says while I stare at her
"How bad am I injured?" I ask her
"You have some very strained muscles and a few cracked bones from the X-rays I was able to perform, much better than when Trunks brought both you and Gohan back here," She says and I hold back a wince
"Thankfully, Gohan suggested that since I am constantly generating energy, I transfer some of my Ki to the 2 of you in order to help heal you," She says while taking a seat on a chair a few feet away
"So it worked," I say chuckling a bit now that the pain is much more manageable
"How long was I out?" I ask her
"2 weeks," She responds as I nod at that...
