.
Somehow… they survived that experiment but what happened to their souls… they didn't know as Their memories had been split… stored inside chips Maybe… even their souls had broken apart the same way.
Dr. Gero had created two android versions of them as Their real bodies… Android 17 and 18.
And their backup bodies… 71 and 81.
It was all part of his plan.
If 17 and 18 ever died… their memories would be transferred into 71 and 81.
A backup life.
After absorbing Android 16, 19, and 20… their power had increased a lot as They had become stronger… much stronger.
But then… they entered that secret room everything changed.
Most of their energy was absorbed Even their blood… because they were cyborgs which mean they are half human, half machine.
But That room didn't just drain their power…It did something else ...Something unexpected.
As It broke the control over them.
That control… the one that had turned Android 17 and 18 into mindless monsters...The control that erased their emotions…Erased their memories and left behind nothing but cold, cruel… killing machines.
But now…That control chip… was gone ...Destroyed.
And NowThey remembered everything.
Android 71… his real name was Lapis.
Android 81… her real name was Lazuli.
For the first time…They were free but at the same time… they were weak.
So weak that they couldn't even destroy the lab heck Even with their near-infinite stamina their bodies just wouldn't respond.
So… they left.
Walking slowly… barely able to move After some time… they reached a small village.
The village head took them in.
Days passed.
Slowly… their strength started coming back as Their bodies began to heal.
But something was different that They had lost their regeneration...The ability their old bodies17 and 18 once had… was gone.
Now… they were closer to humans again.....They could feel emotions.
Pain… guilt… regret but even then…They could never forget what they had done.
What they had become… as Android 17 and 18 and now…Gohan was coming as they can sense him.
They knew… they were not at fault but still… in a way, they were.
They didn't even know anymore what in their memories was real and what was not.
After all… they were Lapis and Lazuli.
Their memories… their souls… everything had been stored in chips, passed from one body to another again and again.
But even then… how could they forget?
The people they killed…The destruction they caused… without mercy and Gohan… that boy had every reason to hate them.
Lapis looked at Lazuli, his voice heavy.
"Sister… what do we do?"
He clenched his fist.
"If we fight him… we'll die. And we both know it."
He paused, breathing slowly.
"That attack on the lab… it drained us. Took part of our energy. Yeah, we're recovering… slowly. That's good."
A small, bitter smile appeared.
"We're stronger than before, sure… after absorbing 19, 16, and 20… but still… right now… we're weak."
Lazuli stayed silent, tears slowly falling from her eyes as she thought.
Lapis spoke again, more hesitant this time.
"What if… we surrender? Tell him the truth?"
Lazuli shook her head immediately.
"You really think he'll believe us?"
Her voice trembled.
"We killed people close to him and right in front of him while Mocking HIM."
Her fists tightened.
"We killed them… and so many innocent people too."
She looked straight at him.
"If it were you… would you forgive us?"
Lapis forced a small smile, trying to find even a tiny bit of hope.
"What about the Dragon Balls? They were talking about them, right? We can bring everyone back…"
Lazuli shook her head again, this time more firmly.
"No… didn't you hear them?"
She wiped her tears.
"They were talking about that green guy… With the Antina. What was his name… yeah… Piccolo."
Her voice grew quieter.
"He was some kind of guardian… and he's dead now."
A pause.
"They said… without him… the Dragon Balls are gone."
Silence fell between them.
Lapis looked down, his expression dark.
"So… we destroyed our only chance at redemption…"
He let out a deep sigh.
Lazuli closed her eyes.
and in that moment… she made a decision
"So How about … we leave," Lazuli said quietly.
Lapis nodded.
"Yeah… we run."
Gohan was already on his way.
Lazuli got ready to move, but she looked back for a second… her eyes filled with tears.
"Lazuli " Lapis grabbed her hand. "Let's go. Now!" as She took a deep breath and nodded.
"Yeah… he's almost here."
Lapis spoke quickly,
"Don't forget… he can't sense android energy. The longer we stay, the worse it gets."
"He'll be here in five minutes." as Lapis clenched his teeth.
"We need to leave… right now."
As They slipped out from the back of the house.
First, they ran as fast as they could… trying not to be seen and After getting some distance, they slowly took to the sky and started flying.
Both of them were silent… nervous as The wind rushed past them after a while, while flying, Lapis glanced at Lazuli and gave a bitter smile.
"Before… he was running from us."
He looked ahead, eyes dark.
"Now… we're the ones running from him."
He let out a quiet breath.
"Hunter and prey… huh… fate really changed the game."
Meanwhile…
Gohan was approaching the Back side of village as He stopped for a moment, looking around carefully.
"…They sensed me."
His eyes narrowed.
"I knew it."
"I read Dr. Gero's files… those androids can sense KI energy."
He clenched his fist.
"17… 18… and the backup bodies… 71 and 81…"
Gohan sighed.
"I still don't understand how that crazy old man turned souls into memory chips…if given time this Man can compete With contigency's plan with certain Bat of Gotham"
Earlier, Gohan had taken many computers, cameras, and data devices from the lab and sent them to Bulma for analysis.
Now, he stood there, scanning the area.
"If they try to fly… I'll spot them." as His gaze sharpened.
"And now… they can sense me too." as He remembered what was written in the files.
"They have enhanced abilities… better than humans… but not like 17 and 18."
"No full regeneration… just faster healing Not enough to regrow limbs like before…"
Suddenly
Beep… beep…
His wrist device started buzzing.
Gohan looked down.
"It's Bulma."
He tapped it and answered.
"Hello? Bulma How is it were you able to access the Data "
Bulma's voice came through.
"Gohan! Yeah, I'm working on it, but putting all those computers together took forever!"
She sounded annoyed… and hungry.
"I'm starving here, going through all this data. Your mom is cooking, by the way."
"And hey...you forgot the Dragon Radar again!"
Gohan scratched his head awkwardly.
"Ah… yeah… I forgot. Thanks, Bulma."
Then his tone became serious.
"Did you find anything about the androids?"
Bulma replied,
"Yup!"
Gohan cut in, eyes locked on a house nearby.
"I found them."
He lowered his voice.
"They're hiding among the villagers… I can't Fight them directly."
He watched carefully.
"So I'm waiting…as They're about to leave."
His eyes sharpened.
"And that's my chance."
He exhaled slowly.
"Also… they're injured. Badly....as that's info i got from Villager's"
"Heh… how?" Bulma asked, clearly surprised.
"Gohan… how can they even be injured? Who on Earth could hurt them… besides you, of course?"
Gohan replied calmly,
"Well… I told you, remember? When I gave you those computers and camera recordings…"
He paused for a second.
"That room… and that secret android… that abomination Dr. Gero created."
Bulma went quiet for a moment.
"Hmm… yeah, I remember," she said.
Gohan continued,
"That's why I think they went in there. That room… it drains energy."
His eyes narrowed slightly.
"Their power must have been sucked out."
"And not just that… it felt like it was messing with everything inside."
He exhaled.
"Even I had trouble stabilizing myself after being in that room and I still don't know how it works… but it was absorbing everything."
Then he added,
"I think all the details about that room should be in the documents I gave you."
Bulma replied,
"Alright… I'll check that too."
Gohan nodded.
"Yeah."
Just as he was about to say He saw two figures rising into the sky as His eyes sharpened instantly.
A small smirk appeared on his face.
"…Found you."
Then he spoke into the device,
"Bulma… I'll talk to you later."
"They've moved away from the civilians."
Bulma quickly replied,
"Be careful, Gohan."
He didn't answer But in his eyes… there was something dark as This was his chance.
A chance to take revenge AGAIN.
Those androids…They killed his mentor and Z-Fighter's… right in front of him while Mocking Him.
Back then… he was weak or rather… the old Gohan was and he couldn't even blame him.
Anyone in that situation… would have been the same as Gohan lowered his head slightly… then vanished.
He began to follow them silently Like a hunter chasing its prey.
Meanwhile…
Android 71 and 81 or Lapis and Lazuli Were flying slowly through the sky as They kept looking around, staying careful but they didn't know that Death was right behind them.
After flying about Ten kilometers into the mountains…Lazuli finally let out a breath.
"…We made it."
Her voice had a bit of relief.
"We're safe… Gohan didn't notice."
They increased their speed, planning to go far away… disappear… and start a new life.
Somewhere far from all this.
But then Both of them froze.
"…Wait."
Even without Improper sensing abilities…They felt something or Someone presence… behind them As now they can fell Presence which They couldn't like before…
Just like earlier…When they sensed Gohan coming toward the village as This ability wasn't perfect as it only worked in front of them… and within a certain range.
But right now It was enough Enough Range and what they felt…Made their Half Machanical hearts drop.
Now… they could clearly feel it as Their sensing range was around 500 meters, and anything inside that range… they could feel clearly.
And this presence…It felt familiar both of them slowly turned around and the moment they saw him as Their hearts dropped.
And Behind them… getting closer and closer…was Gohan.
"…Damn it! We've been found!" Lazuli said, panic in her voice.
Lapis reacted instantly.
"Forget everything—let's move! Full speed!"
"Yeah!" Lazuli nodded.
Both of them pushed their power and rushed forward at full speed as The wind roared around them as they tried to escape.
But...Gohan was faster no.....Much faster as His ki aura burst out around him, glowing brightly.
In a flash as He appeared right in front of them, blocking their path completely.
They stopped instantly as Gohan smiled… almost casually.
"Well… where do you two think you're going?"
His tone was light… but his eyes were cold.
"What? Not even a 'hello' for your old friend?"
Lazuli stepped forward, trying to stay calm.
"What do you want, Gohan?"
Gohan's smile slowly disappeared.
He stared at her.
"Women...…You're really asking me that?"
His voice turned heavy.
"You killed so many people....The Z Fighters… the protectors of this planet… innocent people…"
His fists clenched.
"My friends… my teacher…"
A small pause.
"And you're still asking me what I want?"
His eyes sharpened.
"And don't even try that excuse—'we're different androids'… 'we didn't do anything.'"
"I saw everything and I read Dr. Gero's files...so...You're the same. Same memories… same past."
He crossed his arms slightly.
"That memory chip system… I know all about it."
Then he looked at them carefully.
"…And you're injured."
A faint smirk appeared.
"You went into that secret room, didn't you?"
hearing tha Both Lapis and Lazuli froze as Shock filled their faces.
"He knows…" they both Thought
That meant Gohan had been to the lab and He had seen everything.
Lapis stepped forward, standing in front of Lazuli.
"Gohan… it's not what you think—"
"Stop."
Lazuli's voice cut him off.
She stepped ahead, standing beside him… then slightly in front.
Her eyes were calm now.
"If you want a fight… then let's fight."
She looked straight at Gohan.
"If we lose…kill us."
Lapis' eyes widened.
"Sister.....don't!"
But she didn't listen as Her voice was steady.
"Maybe… this is the only way we can atone.....We've killed too many people…"
Gohan looked at her… then smirked.
"Good.....This time… I won't hold back."
A small pause… then he added coldly,
"Well… not like I held back before… when you were killing everyone as 17 and 18."
He stepped forward slightly.
"Come at me.....Both of you."
Suddenly as His golden Ki aura surrounded him as His hair turned golden… rising upward.
His eyes turned sharp as Gohan transformed into a Super Saiyan .
