The Z-teamers are all in one area, or most of the Z-teamers anyway. Vegeta is begginning to get along with the Earthlings a little now, and Yamcha is OK with his presence. Tien hates him though. Vegeta is still feeling enraged that Gokuu has the ability to become SSJ, though and hates him for it. Trunks comes back from the future in the time machine. Freeza, new and improved is also coming to Earth with his big pappy, King Cold. They land on Earth and Freeza is anticipating his meeting with the legendary Super Saiya-jin, but is also scared. King Cold is unknowing of the extreme power of the Super Saiya-jin. Trunks arrives and sees Freeza and King Cold, they talk and insult each other ect... And Trunks eventually goes SSJ and kicks the crap out of Freeza, slicing him to hell with his sword. King Cold sees this, and his son's futile attempts to defend himself, but since his pride is so high, he will not admit to himself that his son could be killed by a mere "monkey." He assumes that Trunks' sword is the reason for his sucess. He tricks Trunks into giving him the sword and then strikes Trunks. Trunks merely catches them blade and proceeds to kill King Cold, despite his pleas.
Shortly after Trunks returns from killing Freeza and King Cold, Gokuu arives in a Saiya-jin pod. Meanwhile, Vegeta is stunned, horrified and blazing with rage, after realizing there is yet another Saiya-jin who has suprassed him. Trunks almost instantly asks Son Gokuu to talk to him, and Son agrees. They talk, Trunks tells Gokuu that in three years he will die of a heart disease, and two androids will destroy the world. Gokuu is upset, not because he is going to die (been there, done that), but because he won't get to fight the androids. Trunks then tells Gokuu that he has an atidote to the heart disease. Trunks processes this statement, and realizes that the legendary Son Gokuu is all that the legends made him out to be, and possibly more. While he and Gokuu are talking, he goes Super Saiya-jin. Suddenly, out of nowhere, he lunges at Gokuu holding his sword in front of him, much resembling the strike he hit Freeza with. This is to see if Gokuu is strong and fast enough to stop him. Gokuu simply doesn't budge. Gokuu sensed that there was no killing intent, and so, did not move. Trunks stops, inches before Gokuu's forehead makes contact with the sword. Gokuu tells Trunks he didn't move because he knew Trunks would not strike him. Trunks then tells Gokuu that next time, he won't stop. Gokuu agrees. Trunks strikes again and again and again. Each time Gokuu stops the sword using two fingers. Trunks decides that Gokuu is possibly strong enough to defeat the androids. Trunks gives Gokuu a specific date and time for them all to meet, and at that time they will face the androids. Then he leaves, but not before telling Gokuu who his father and mother are (Bulma and Vegeta) and not to say anything that might endanger his existance (if they found out, Bulma and Vegeta might never fall in love!). Gokuu agrees saying "Don't worry, I don't talk much." Gokuu goes to the group who have been watching the whole thing, and tells everyone what happened (leaving out anything about Trunks' parents) but forgets the date to meet. Fortunately, Piccilo, with his Super-Nameck-Auditory-System overheard the whole thing and tells everyone the date, but he too does not endanger Trunks' existance. They all go their seperate ways, in order to train as hard as they can for the next three years. Gokuu, Gohan and Piccilo go to train, Tien and Chaozu go off with each other, and Krillin and Yamcha each go their seperate ways.
The next several years go fairly uneventful, while the Z-teamers train. There are a few things of notice, such as the time when Gokuu and Piccilo are forced to get driver's licenses by Chi-Chi, that's a really funny episode. After the three years have passed, everybody goes to meet at the specific point given to them by Future Trunks. As it turns out, the island they were supposed to meet on contains a huge city. The Z-fighters are surprised to find Bulma there holding a baby (Trunks) in her hands. Gokuu mistakenly calls him Trunks before Bulma gives him the name, but since Trunks has already been created, there is no danger in revealing who he is. Since the Z-fighters cannot sense the KI of an android, they must look for the androids with their eyes and ears, and that may take a while. Eventually, Yamcha finds the androids, and is surprised to see what they look like, since no one ever got a description from Future Trunks. The androids quickly absorb Yamcha's energy through red semishperes in their hands then promptly punch a gaping hole through Yamcha's stomach. The other Z-fighters eventually find Yamcha and fight a little with the androids, but soon give up, realizing that the fight is causing too many casualties. Yamcha is taking back to the original meeting place on the island (on a hill) and given senzu, which revives him. The androids and the Z-fighters all go to an island. Surprising, Gokuu is winded just from flying. Something is noticably wrong with him. He begins to fight with android #19 and is kicking his ass, but seems to keeping getting in worse and worse shape. Eventually the android overpowers him is taking energy from him. Piccilo is about to rescue him, when Vegeta rams into android #19 with a flying kick. The Z-fighters realize that the reason Gokuu is in such bad shape is because his heart condition hurting him. As it turns out, he has never taken his medicine, because the symptoms never came. Yamcha takes him back to his house, where he is given the medicine. But the medicine doesn't seem to be working...
Meanwhile, back at the island, Vegeta has a few surprises of his own. Unbeknownst to the Z-fighters, Vegeta has aquired the ability to go Super Saiya-jin. He explains how ironic it was that his very anger at not being able to go Super Saiya-jin was the thing that caused him to go SSJ. Vegeta and Android 19 fight around a bit, and it becomes clear that Vegeta has the upperhand. Eventually, Vegeta lets the android grab onto his arms, the Andriod begins to drain his energy saying "I'll never let go!" Vegeta asks "Never?" and after assuring himself that the only way the android can absorb energy he jumps up, puts his feet on the andriod's chest and pulls the andriod's arms off. Vegeta then continues to kill android 19. Meanwhile, #20 is astonished that there can possibly be anybody this strong. He flees into a giant mountain, using the cracks to conceal himself, since the Z-fighters cannot sense his KI. Vegeta is given Senzu and follows the android. The rest of the Z-fighters follow Vegeta. Android 20 is contemplating what to do. He decides to pick off the Z-fighters and steal their energy, then move on to Vegeta. He tries to steal Piccilo's energy, but since Piccolo has a supreme auditory system, he knew the attack was coming. Unbeknowst the android, Piccilo was actually destroying his energy while he thought he was abosorbing it. Piccilo then takes a senzu and challenges #20 to a bout. 20 agrees, assuming he should be at least as strong as Piccilo after absorbing his energy. But since Piccilo was destroying the energy he thought he was absorbing, he gets the crap kicked out of him. He then flees into the cracks of the mountain again and is going back to the lab. For some reason though, he seems distraught on having to return to the lab, but it is not revealed in that episode.
