This is a story about Cell's quest to go Beyond Perfect! It takes place during the 7 year time skip between the Cell Games and the Majin Buu Saga, and later after Ressurection F. The idea for this fic probably isn't very original but I'll try to make up for it with my writing! Also I'm not totally sure about what Hell is like in DBZ so if I make any inaccuracies PM me or make a review. Anyways, Hope you enjoy!

Prologue, Immediately After Cells Defeat

A blinding ray of light can be seen contrasting with the cold darkness of space. It soon dissapears. It's point of origin being a small, but powerful 11 year old Saiyan named Son Gohan. The victim of this powerful Kamehameha was a being named Cell, who was completely obliterated never to regenerate and only to be seen again in Hell along with the other ferocious villains who were defeated by the Z Fighters.

Cells vision of a beam struggle with Gohan was soon replaced with a blinding blue light. When his vision returned he was lying back down staring up at a yell sky. He sat up and scanned his surroundings, "Wh-What is this place?" He says in an angry tone. There was a fountain spewing a red liquid in the center of the area he was in. A dead forest with coal black trees in the distance and mountains and caves surrounded the area. Very little vegetation in the first place and the ground was a bright yellow.Cell stands up completely and begins frantically looking around for an answer. He stops mid-way and h to himself.

"Heh...I must've had a mere nightmare after defeating Gohan and destroying the Earth. How could I possibly lose to those weaklings anyway, so silly..."

After saying that, He hears footsteps and detects a powerful level far surpassing his. He instantly recognizes the energy and the voice he hears confirms it, "Ohohoho!" Frieza giggles in a delighted tone. "Perfect Cell was it? You put on a delightful show, but I suppose you were never meant to win."

Frieza stood with a sinister smirk on his face and a hand on his chin. The white and purple alien stood about 2 feet away from Cell, staring up at the green bug-like creature who was far taller than him.

Cell realizes Frieza has gotten considerably stronger, even stronger than him but he cannot believe it. He maintains his composure but grits his teeth. "Frieza..."

Frieza's grin becomes even wider as he notices Cell's reaction. Cell has obviously noticed the wide power gap between the two and Frieza was just about to rub salt in the wound. Frieza removes his hand from his chin and begins walking casually towards Cell. Cell is taken aback by this and tries to step backwards, only to be stopped dead in his tracks by a powerful blow to chest that completely knocks the wind out of him.

"Oh well...I suppose you'll make an excellent training partner."

Frieza removes his fist from Cell's chest. The Bio-Android clenches his stomach and takes 3 steps backwards. His grip on his chest tightens and releases as he smiles and says to Frieza, "Frieza do you really think that, even with all that training, you'll be able to defeat me!" He says arrogantly.

Frieza shrugs and says sarcastically "Hmm, I suppose not."

Cell grins and begins flying towards Frieza at lighting speed.

"GOOD! Because after that, you're dead!"

Frieza disappears from Cells view, and Cell gasps in suprise, his eyes widen in confusion. "What!?" He yells . Not after long his face in slammed into the ground by the 3 toed foot of Frieza. Cell's body slides accoss the dirt floor as Frieza pushes him into the ground. Frieza removes his foot from Cells head and he goes flying through a tree and into the distance.

Cell slowly comes to a halt and he begins to stand back up. He grunts in pain and grips his arm. "Damn it, I didn't think he'd get this strong. Guess I'll have to get a bit serious." He looks up into the sky and sees Frieza flying towards him. "Damn that Frieza, I'll show him... TRUE STRENGTH!" Cell begins flying towards Frieza head on. They race towards eachother, with Frieza keeping his smile and Cell having a frustrated look on his face.

Once they are close enough to eachother, Frieza immediately gains the upper hand in combat quickly dodging all of Cell's attacks and counterattacking each one. He begins to toy with him opting out of using his hands and only using his feet and tail as he did with Goku a long time ago. He strikes Cell in the face with his tail and follows up with a kick across the face. He pauses for a moment... then slams the bottom of his foot into the top of Cell's head, sending him crashing into the ground.

Cell cry's out in pain as he is pummeled. Frieza looks down at the following explosion of dust and begins to slowly hover downwards. As the dust settles he can clearly see Cell attempting to stand again, and as soon as he does Frieza crushes him back down with a tail strike to the back. Cell yelps in pain again.

He stands above the defeated Android with pride. "Oh Cell, did you really believe I'd be in Hell just moping around. I have been getting stronger too to defeat that worthless monkey Goku, and you will be my training partner until then. Or at least, until you run of use for me..." He laughs while Cell is shivering in pain and fear below him.

"Trust me, I assure you that this is also in your benefit. You'll make a perfect asset to my army, I'll supply you with shelter, and you'll get plenty strong as well."

Cell's shiver become even more dramatic as he realizes he can't win, and the thought of being a mere pawn, especially to someone like Frieza. He was supposed to be the perfect being, but he was defeated by Gohan, and now humiliated by Frieza.

"This... will not stand! I swear to you Frieza, I WILL DESTROY YOU!" Cell thinks to himself as he grits his teeth.

It would be a long journey, but a worthwhile one.
