Eventually 3 years go by and the day has come as the androids are coming. The z fighters meet somewhere, and see Bulma with a baby who turns out to be Chibi Trunks. But soon the z fighters begin to look for the androids after seeing an explosion. Yamcha runs into them both and nearly gets all his energy sucked up.
Goku comes and tells the androids to fight with him in an empty desolate area. Goku transforms into a super saiyan and battles android 19. Goku at first easily overwhelms the android. But soon Goku's heart virus begins to take affect and cripples the warrior. 19 is able to suck up most of Goku's energy and none of the z fighters can interfere since they are not strong enough. When it seems like there is no hope left Vegeta comes along.
Vegeta shocks everyone and transforms into a super saiyan. He easily disposes of 19 but 20 starts to run away but nearly gets destroyed by Piccolo. Trunks comes back and says that these androids are different from the ones in his timeline. Then Vegeta goes to fight the other androids that Gero is going activate.
They turn out to be 17 and 18. 18 fights Vegeta but overwhelms him easily and the rest of the z fighters show up. They all fight the androids but get beaten up. Piccolo tells krillen to move Goku to a safer place while he finishes some business. Trunks and Krillen get Goku, Chi Chi, and gohan in a helicopter and fly to master roshii's house but on the way there Bulma informs the z fighters that someone has found a time machine exactly like Trunks's.
Gohan, Trunks and Bulma go and investigate the time machine that looks exactly like Trunks'. When they arrive on the scene, they see the time machine covered in mold. Trunks opens it up and sees an egg, and sees some weird looking shell of some disgusting looking insect. Gohan and Trunks know that there is something out there that could be dangerous. A nearby town is completely deserted, and all that is left is clothing of the people. The z fighters are at master roshii's house and becoming suspicious as to what could be going on. Meanwhile, Piccolo has come to Kami's tower to re-fuse with Kami. At first Kami is hesitant but with the new threat on the loose Kami knows that he has no other choice than to Fuse back with Piccolo. They fuse back in Piccolo's body and head down to Ginger town where this new threat is. Piccolo arrives to Gingertown and confronts the villain. They begin to battle with Piccolo showing tremendous power. At the same time the rest of the z fighters can feel all sorts of Ki coming from the battle. Piccolo eventually begins to get beaten up. Then the army comes to destroy Cell but they are no threat. Then Cell absorbs Piccolo's arm and Piccolo says he will submit only if Cell tells him more about his background. Cell explains who he is, that he was created by the cells of all the great fighters of the universe, and that he came back in time by killing Trunks and stealing his time machine, and he wants to absorb androids 17 and 18 to become the ultimate being. This was all a trick by Piccolo, as the time wasted by Cell telling him about his background was enough for Piccolo to rengenerate his arm. They begin to battle again, and Trunks and Krillen arrive along with Tien, Cell begins to run away. They chase him but he always got away.
The androids are heading for Goku's house. When they arrive they see that the house is completely empty. Then they head to master roshii's house where Goku is at the moment. Eventually Goku awakens from his comma. He heads out and trains a bit and tells Chi chi that he will start to train Gohan. Goku teleports to the plane the z fighters are using. Goku then tells them about the Room of spirit and time, a place where you can get one years training in one day. Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, and Trunks head to Kami's place where this room is located on. Trunks and Vegeta are the first to enter the room.
Meanwhile, the androids have arrived to master roshii's and are looking for Goku. Piccolo challenges 17 and they both head to a desolate island. They begin to battle with Piccolo having the upper hand at first. They both go back and fourth throughout the battle. Eventually Cell arrives and nearly kills Piccolo. He then begins to fight 17. 17 gets his ass kicked and is about to get absorbed until the silent android 16 has had enough. 16 gives Cell a rocket punch and begins to overwhelm Cell. 16 destroys Cell's tail but Cell is able to regenerate it. 16 continues to overwhelm Cell and after one blast, it seems as if Cell is destroyed, but Cell emerges and absorbs 17. He evolves and becomes more powerful. After that 16 could not even get a single hit off Cell. Tien comes and begins to distract Cell while the androids escaped. Tien faints, and Goku saves him and teleports back to Kami's place. Cell becomes angered since he cannot find the androids, and begins to destroy every island to find them. There is only one left and that is the one 16 and 18 are hiding. |
