4:23 P.M.

I got out of the bushes and walked up to him, shaking while my heart is beating faster than before. He had these obsidian-like plates on his chest and on his shoulders.

Most of his body was green with dark dots, like a suit of armor. He also has this V-shaped helmet with a ebony orb sitting in the middle of it, and large, metal, yellow boots he was wearing.

Wings were on his back and his height was like a giant. His skin was extremely pale, and he had this yellow chin rest. There were purple markings from underneath of his eyes to his jaw. His magenta eyes darted at me from the distance, looking intimidating as ever.

"State your purpose, human," He demanded.

"U-Um. I got lost..." I spoke softly, fear was in my voice.
He shut his eyes, "Hmph. Fool."
I raised my chin, looking at him surprisingly, "W-What?"

'That's stinking Terry's fault, not mine!' But I gave in Rosetta's advice and decided to not say anything rude. Cell is strange. He seems different from I imagined from the tone of his voice. He is even more frightening in person than on TV. Maybe I should learn about this Cell. I don't want to talk to him, I'm scared. But it is better to talk than to keep silent.

"You should leave before your doom approaches." He warned.

I gave him a warm smile, "I should. But I want to learn more about you."
He opened his eyes and frowned, "Do you know who I am human? I am no ordinary creature. If you seek to learn about me, I am sure it will be a terrifying experience to you."

I sweatdropped, but still able to pull out a smile, "W-Well, maybe I'm not who you think I am. Who knows, maybe I'm different. But I do know that everyone is scared of you and barely even have a chance to talk to you. If they do that, does that mean I should?"
'I hope I said it right.'
He took a moment and sighed, "Fine, you shall stay with me for a week. I won't end your life, but if you are rude and ignorant, I will."
My smile faded away, "Y-Yes sir."
I was scared for my life. But at least he spared me, which it was shocking. Why would he spare me? He would've killed me now since he doesn't care if someone dies or not. What does this mean? After that conversation, he was resting, and I was sitting, thinking of what and how to say something to Cell. There was this long silence.

He glared at me, raising his eyebrow, "Well, are you going to talk or not?"

"O-oh sorry. I-It is just my first time meeting you in person." I stuttered. "My name is Tatum."

He didn't say anything. 'Okay, probably not the social type. That's alright.'

I gazed at him, curiously, "So where did you come from? And who are you?"
He smirked, "I am an android, composed of cells from the strongest fighters throughout the universe. I traveled here from the future to absorb Android #17 and #18 to achieve my perfect form. Since I reached perfection, I will have a tremendous battle at the Cell Games. In particular with my opponent, Goku. Therefore, I do have to give credit to my creator, Dr. Gero, for this brilliant design." He explained looking confident.

My eyes flashed at the mention of an android, "It's like The Terminator!"

His expression blanked, "Terminator?"

I clenched my fists up in excitement, "Yeah! It is a movie about a cyborg from the year 2029 traveled to 1984 to assassinate a woman which her unborn son will fight against the machines in the future!"

He shut his eyes, grinning. "How strange your culture is."

I don't know why I got so excited now, I know the movie was good. But now, he is right. He is no ordinary person. He is an android. I thought he was what people call him, a 'monster'. We didn't do anything to him, so what made him kill people? Is it because we are weaker than him, or is it he is doing all this for his amusement? There are so many possibilities he could do this!

I bet Marshall and my parents are worried right now. I have been out for a while, all I just want is to see my friends and families again. Why does he need to blow up the planet? He is truly heartless if he is killing people for fun.

Most people kill each other for the stupidest of reasons nowadays or they kill people for their valuable materials. But with him, he doesn't care about anything. He only cares about to be perfect, which no one is, but if I said that to Cell, he will kill me.

How am I supposed to stay with him for a week if he is this? I know I am not rude but there are sometimes where I got to be. I think that in my school, sitting next to someone that is annoying, loud, and seeks for attention for the whole semester is the worst. But I changed my mind, this is a death seat and I am sitting right on it.

Cell shifted his eyes to his right. Did he see someone? There was a ZTV news van and 2 cameramen and a female news reporter came out of the vehicle, walking towards Cell.

"You idiots better not screw this up for me. Mr. Ackerman owes me that money, and if you idiots mess this interview up like all the other interviews I went through, I'll make sure you don't have a job," The news reporter threatened to the cameramen.

One of the cameramen said, "You don't have to worry about a thing, Monique."

She clenched her fist up, "It's Monica!"

I'm sorry for saying this, but she has a loud mouth from being so far away. I'm serious, haha. They came to Cell, and Monica started the interview.

She gave out a bright smile, "Hello Mr. Cell! I am Monica, your news reporter for the day. And I came here to do an interview with you. Let's get this started."

Cell seemed to be ignoring her, not making a single move. I would ignore too but I want to see how this goes out.

"First question, do you think our hero, Hercule, will finish you in the Cell Games?" She asked, holding a microphone towards his face. I see his eye starting to twitch.

"What kind of question is that?" I asked her, confusedly.

She gave me a look, "What are you doing here brat? Get out of my interview!"

"I—" I sighed.

I look at Cell and he still didn't take a glimpse at me or the crew.

Monica's face was concerned, "Cell?" She smiled, "Don't worry. You don't have to answer that question. Second question, what made you kill people?"

He still didn't answer.

She pouted, "Alright, you are pissing me off. Answer the darn questio—"

He glared at her. Monica's eyes lit up; she flinched and crossed her arms, scowling. "I asked you a question."

He smirked, "You expect me to talk to such an ignorant human?"

"You! I—" She sighed. "No sir."

His face turned sullen, "Then I'll suggest we end this interview of yours."

Monica just got shut down! Ahem, sorry. She and the cameramen walked away, mumbling. They got into their van and drove away. I can see how he assume we are strange. But we are not that strange! Are we? Nah. Probably.

He glanced at me, "Do you understand why I despise humans?"

I tilted my head, "Well... sorta. But all humans aren't bad."

He shut his eyes, "Hmph. Humans tend to beg and plead for their lives to be spared. They still use toys to fight without even showing their all. How can I fight a mere human if that human has no intelligence and power?"

I gaze at the clouds, "What you said is true. People in this world are often stupid. They'll talk all tough, but when you come to confront them, they get scared easily."

He grinned, "Isn't that so?"

6:03 P.M.

We didn't talk at all after that conversation. I was on my phone and texted my mom where I'm at. My mom freaked out! I told her that I'll be fine. Probably. Right then, a loud growl was heard from my body. I flushed, face palming myself.

Cell got up and gave a half smile at me. "Well, it is about time."

I set down my backpack. Wait a minute, does he even have a car? He lifted me up by his side and raised up to the sky! What is he doing?

I gaped, seeing that I'm far away to the ground than I thought, "Um... Bad time to say this!"

"What? Are you afraid?" He chuckled.

I smiled bashfully, "Maybe."

He shook his head and flew. I gazed at the view, my eyes widen. It was amazing!

I held up my hands, "This view is awesome!"

He rolled his eyes, "I suppose."

Everything is so small and tiny down below, and over to my right, I saw a plane. It wasn't close but it was just enough distance from us. I see a little boy looking through the window and his mouth was wide open. It wasn't that boy who was staring but everyone was. I can tell from their faces that they were panicking.

I look at Cell, raising my eyebrows, "Why do you kill people? Do you care if they are dead or not?"

He glanced at me and closed his eyes, smirking. "I don't care about anyone that lives on this pathetic planet. Everything is so boring and dull. However, killing humans over and over, the screaming, was enjoyable to watch until it got tiresome. It started as a routine, they beg for their lives, I kill them. Delightful it was."

I didn't say anything after that. What he just said was just horrifying. He kills for fun? That is the cruelest thing I heard anyone say that to me.

I gaze at the land. I know he did warn me, but I was curious about him that he would have some kind of backstory for the reason why he kills people.

But there was no backstory, or maybe there is but he didn't tell me yet. I mean who kills for fun?

It's disgusting and cruel! He is something else than I imagined.

I gaze at the sky, the sky was this orange-pinkish color, it was beautiful. I tilted my head down and it seems that we are going to a town. Cell descended to the ground and then landed. He let me go and I decide to see where we at. This town doesn't have anybody here. Strange that there were clothes everywhere. But maybe this is the place where it all happened.

I whirled around to face him, "Are we at Nikki Town?"

He crossed his arms over his chest and shook in laughter, "Yes. Terrifying, isn't it?"

I sweatdropped, "U-Um. Well—"

He chuckled, "You have 30 minutes. Use your time wisely."

I itched my head, "O-Okay, but would this be stealing?"

He rolled his eyes and shuts them, "Just go do it."

I laughed, "Alrighty then."

I entered a restaurant and began making myself some pizza. Why did he let me eat? I am grateful, but there were some things I expected from him.

He could've never taken me here to eat, but he did. Maybe he is planning something and I might be included in it. Or I should relax for awhile, cause I have a major headache. But so far, he's nice a bit.

(Cell's Point of View)

This human seems odd. It is strange for a human to not run in fear but to converse? Does she know I can end her life any minute? Why should I, Perfect Cell, talk to a lowly human? I am an ultimate lifeform! Talking to a human is a waste of time. However, I want to observe how this human says she is different.

As of now, the girl is in fear. I advised her to leave me in peace yet she wants to stay. Even before, I know she knew what she would be expecting out of me.

If this girl is unusual as she says she is, then I am interested.

(My Point of View)

I finished my pizza. It was okay, at least I ate something. I exited out of the restaurant, seeing Cell sitting on a bench, crossing his arms as usual.

"Are you satisfied?" He questioned.

I bobbed, my mouth curved into a smile, "It was alright but yep."

He picked me up and flew back to the arena. During the flight, I wondered if he eats at all, or even sleep?

I lifted my eyebrows, "Do you eat?"

He looked at me and looks away, "No."

I continued to question, "Do you ever consider of eating someday?"

"No."

"Really? Okay," I said quite confused.

He narrowed his eyes to mine, "What is it?"

"First, I guessed you would like to eat since you never did it before."

"No. Humans eat food to savor their taste. I absorb people to get stronger. See the difference?" He stated.

"Yeah. But do you still need to absorb people?"

"No. I am in my perfect form, I don't need to absorb." He added.

My eyes gazed at the sunset, "Oh...so does this mean you don't need to sleep neither?"

"No."

"That's cool…"

We made it to the arena. He put me down and started meditating. I took out my phone out of my backpack and started playing on my phone. What can I say? I love my phone. We didn't say anything else for the rest of the day. This is cool for my first day here with him. Although, he is Cell, who knows what he can do.

12:03 A.M.

I haven't gone to sleep at all, therefore, I kept playing on my phone. Yes, I do admit the game Plantasia is addictive but I have to finish these quests! I went on a spree by killing monsters over and over again just to get that 1,000,000 EXP rumor that the people in the chat were talking about! I yawned, my eyelids were half-closed, making me even more tired.

"Miss," He spoke.

I raised my chin up, "Yes?"

"Go to sleep," He suggested.

"Can I do this one missio—"

"Go to sleep, miss, " He interrupted me.

I slumped my arms, "Okay…"

I put my phone in my backpack and lay my head down on my backpack as a pillow.

I softly spoke, "G-Good night."

He nodded, and then I shut my eyes.
