Raditz arched an eyebrow in great bewilderment, these young people didn't sound familiar to him and he didn't understand how or why they knew Goku either.
'They have a strange appearance, besides... I don't feel their energy' Raditz mused, alarmed by the latter. He had never experienced anything like that.
"Honey, who's at the door?" Launch stood behind the warrior, who placed his arm to prevent him from leaving, "What's wrong Raditz?"
"How do you know me and why are you looking for my brother?" Raditz asked seriously.
"Calm down, calm down... we just came to have fun with him, you don't need to get upset, Raditz" declared 17 with a small smile.
"Unless you want to intrude on our fun too" 18 added looking at his nails, and then to Raditz, "Now tell us where Goku is"
Raditz clenched his teeth, as he still did not understand the purpose of these beings. But suddenly he realized an important thing.
'Are they the androids?! No, that boy said that they would be powerful and destructive beings, not teenagers!' thought Raditz after realizing it.
But this was the only explanation for the fact that they were looking for Goku and that they knew who he was, but he didn't understand why they were so nice.
'I shouldn't trust myself... what a great moment Kakarot chose to go to another planet' inquired Raditz smiling ironically, "My brother is not here"
"What?" 18 put his hands on his waist.
"Are you deaf brat? He's not, neither here nor on this planet" Raditz replied with a smile, "And now let's cut this nonsense, androids!"
Raditz ejected his Ki pushing the two androids back and Launch looked at him in surprise, although due to the breeze caused she sneezed.
"What the hell is going on, Raditz?" Launch, now with blonde hair, demanded with a frown.
"It's time to fight! Get in the house and don't get out of there" answered Raditz seriously and went out to meet the new enemies, who were waiting for him.
"I'll take this to mean that you want to fight us, you Saiyans are so brainless" 17 smiled calmly.
"Look, something you have in common" said 18 mocking 17, "Let me take care of him, I'm sick of this place and I want to leave now"
"Pff, as you like, according to doctor Gero this is not the strongest subject among Goku's friends, it won't be complicated" the android spoke.
"Oh yes? Let me prove you otherwise" Raditz got into a fighting stance ready to show the fruit of his intense training.
Although the initial plan was to train for three years, as advised by Trunks, the early arrival of the androids completely ruined everything.
'I've trained for a year, I should be able to take them on' Raditz thought without losing her smile, and 18 crossed her arms disinterestedly.
"How long will you keep staring at me? You're not my type, so fight!" said 18 flying towards him and Raditz stopped her with her elbow, but hardly.
18 frowned and with a quick spin kicked the Saiyan warrior's waist, and joining his hands gave him a powerful ax blow to the head.
Before Raditz's body hit the ground 18 kicked him in the abdomen sending him crashing into a couple of nearby trees.
"Wow, you seem to have really disliked that Saiyan" commented 17 with a smirk.
"Shut up" 18 dusted off her hands and slid a lock of hair from her forehead, "Let's get out of here, I highly doubt that..."
But before the beautiful girl could finish, the felled trees shot up into the sky in an explosive flash of gold.
Raditz's hair had turned blonde and his eyes turquoise blue. A smile remained installed on his face, that irritated 18 a lot.
"So this is the famous Super Saiyan, it's getting very interesting" 17 got up from the rock where he was sitting.
"Time to get serious" once said that Raditz flew up and punched 18 on the cheek sending him to the ground, "Sorry, does it hurt?"
"Damn asshole!" 18 felt the blood that was dripping in the socket of his lips and that increased his anger, "Now you'll see fool!"
18 got up without wasting time and creating a flurry she threw it point blank at Raditz, who covered himself by putting his hands together in an "X" shape.
A smoke screen was produced as a result of the attack. And shortly after, Raditz took an 18 to the face.
The girl took him by the shoulders and threw him to the ground. But Raditz got up quickly and somersaulted away from 18, who came at him.
Raditz smiled at this and flexed his right arm at a perfect angle pointing in the girl's direction, "Burning Thursday!"
Suddenly an incandescent sphere shot towards 18, who opened her eyes somewhat surprised. Even 17 looked at him in disbelief!
The attack came towards the girl and suddenly the whole place turned a reddish orange hue and the temperature of the place increased tremendously.
Raditz crossed his arms with a superior smile on his face as he watched the show. But something caught his eye.
"How?!" he exclaimed, but he couldn't say more when a strong knee from 18 knocked the air out of him, forcing him to spit blood from the blow.
The girl kicked him in the chest sending him into a forest and she reached out her hand, ready to create one last attack.
Raditz half opened one eye and saw how a yellow ball was sweeping through the forest until it reached him. Then, the place was filled with fire.
18 sighed in exasperation. He wanted to get out of this place and find new clothes as soon as possible. "What are you waiting for 17? We have to find Goku"
"Didn't you hear? He's not on Earth, besides if he's not in his house..." 17 was going to say something but magically the forest fire dissipated.
17 opened his eyes perplexed when a subject began to land from the sky surrounded by an aura and golden hair, it was another Super Saiyan!
"I heard that they were looking for me, so here I am" said the man with Raditz in his arms, it was none other than Goku, who had come from Yadrat.

"You have to relax a bit, you've been training day and night all week" Yamcha spoke walking through the streets with his friend Krillin.
They were in the western capital, they had decided to pay Bulma a visit after having been training for a whole year without a break.
When they found out that the androids were coming, they decided to train hard in gravity machines, like Gohan did.
Knowing how bad Trunks' future was, they couldn't afford to end up the same, so they put their all into it throughout the year.
They went from a 15x gravity to a gravity increased one hundred times in three months. It was difficult for them to adapt, but it was not impossible.
Both of them strengthened their body, not only to increase their strength, but to resist techniques such as multi-fold increased Kaio-ken.
"I know... but I want to be ready for when our enemies arrive" Krillin said clenching his fists tightly, "Now they are androids"
"Well...against Frieza's father and the Ginyu forces we weren't ready and we easily won that battle, remember?"
"Yeah, but..." Krillin muttered doubtfully.
"Besides, we have five Super Saiyans on our side...although I still don't trust Vegeta and Nappa, but there's nothing to fear!"
"I guess you're right... but we'll train tomorrow, huh!" exclaimed Krillin resigned.
"Sure dude! Besides, what can go wrong?" Yamcha asked smiling, but suddenly a gas station in front of them exploded without hesitation.
People started running away scared. Krillin and Yamcha looked at each other sternly, they had a feeling that it wasn't an accident.
This was confirmed when two figures emerged unharmed from the flames. They had a strange appearance and suits with the Red Ribbon logo.
Were they other androids?!
Happy New Year to all! I hope the holidays have passed well, for my part I did have a good time. Here's the chapter, I hope the university allows me to update more frequently throughout this year.
Finally the androids have shown up and Raditz has faced 18, will Goku and his brother be able to defeat the androids? What will happen to Krillin and Yamcha in the western capital? Will they be able to defeat the new enemies?
