Souless
AN: Yes I am alive! hehehe…er sorry ppls about the late update. I just finished my half-yearly exams which was held over the last 3 weeks, and before my exams I had an interview, so I didn't exactly have the time to write. Once again I apologise, I hope you enjoy chapter 4.
Disclaimer: Of course I don't own dragonball z, if I did then I'll be a stinkin' rich millionaire and probably off on holidays in Hawaii, not some pathetic fan typing away at the computer.
Chapter 4- Welcome to HFIL
"Well, well, what do we have here?"
Gohan slowly opened his eyes. He woke up to the sound of a familiar husky voice. When his eyes fell upon the origin of the voice he wished that his eyes were still shut.
"Hmm…I think I'm going to have some fun with you." It said and moved to kick the boy. "Get up!"
Gohan groaned in pain as he felt the kick. Freiza should pose no treat to a super saiyan, but he doesn't have enough energy to summon up the power of a super saiyan. With his injuries, the slightest breeze could knock him over.
As Gohan moved his hands to nurture his wounded stomach, Freiza drew back his foot and shivered slightly. "What are you?" Freiza gasped looking down at the child. The kid…he's not solid. My foot feels like it hit icy cold air. Is this what happens to children when they are sent to hell?
Gohan groaned some more, his body was aching all over and he felt quite cold though the gust of wind that just blew past was quite if not very hot. Great, just great! Another one of those nightmares where the past villains come to haunt me. I wonder who else is going to be here. Gohan focused his vision again on Freiza. Funny…how come he looks…Gohan puzzled over the expression on Freiza's face, it looked amazed, dazzled, frightened?
"Freiza! What are you doing wasting your time over there?" Came an annoyed yell. "Come here and help me search for some nice blue and orange ogres so we can have some fun and maybe get the hell out of here!"
"I…I think I found someone that you might have some fun with." Freiza stammered. "It's a little demon child, probably been naughty so he's sent down to HFIL with us."
"I can't possibly find any fun torturing a little kid. Honestly Freiza, the kid'll probably cry or even be scared to death again just by looking at me." The voice replied while getting louder as the being approached.
Wonder which one this is? Garlic Junior? Captain Ginyuu? Maybe even my uncle Radditz.
Gohan mused himself pondering over which villain this one is going to be that came to torture him. The creature's shadow loomed over Gohan and its face finally came into view."AHHHHHHH!" came the startled and frightened shout from both the boy and the monster. Both looked at each other with hate and fright filled eyes.
Gohan placed his hands firmly on the ground and pushed himself upwards. He stood there in front of the two villains not sure if he should run or attack. Boy does he want to wrap his hands around Cell's throat for the pain that he had caused. But he want to run far away where he can just forget about the past, forget about the pain, forget about Cell and his father. The two conflicting emotions caused him to stand there and only stare at the 'thing' that killed him off inside.
Cell too stared hard at the boy, the boy that had brought him here. He wanted revenge and he wanted it bad. But something inside of him was scared, scared of this child, scared of what he can do. He can't let that weak feeling take over him. Revenge is the way to go, so Cell raised up his fist and slammed it against Gohan's face, or tried to anyway. Just like Freiza before, Cell realised that something was not right with the kid. Instead of connecting his fist with the child's cheek it passed through it and felt cold air all around. As questions began popping up into Cell's head one question caught his attention and it's been looming in his mind when he first saw the half-saiyan. What's Gohan doing here?
Cell might not have been able to hit a solid form, either way Gohan still felt the blow and the pain it brought. He had seen Cell's fist passing through his face, and more grief was brought upon him as he remembered the events prior to this. Oh great, not only is Cell and Freiza here, so is my dad and I just happen to be a GHOST! What kind of psycho dream is this? WAKE UP GOHAN!!
Freiza looked on as he saw the angry and frightened face turn into a painful expression when Cell delivered his blow and then turn into a look of desperation. As if, if he didn't get away from them soon, then he'll explode. Just who is this little demon? He seemed to have given Cell quite a fright. Freiza's question was answered when Cell spoke up.
"What are you doing in hell Gohan?" Cell asked puzzled, curiously and patiently. If Gohan had really died and for whatever reason he had ended up in hell, then he'll have eternity to torture him.
Hell? What's he talking about? I wish I'd wake up. I wish I'd just wake up.
Gohan could only stare up at Cell, he has no answer to his question.A cheeky smile lit up on Cell's face as he laughed like all villains when they have accomplished something evil or think they will accomplish something evil. "Don't look so confused Gohan. Hell isn't that bad. What better way to spend the rest of eternity than with me? I don't care why you are here Gohan or why you do not have a solid form. All I care about is that I get my chance for revenge. Enjoy your stay in hell Gohan, because it's going to be hell."
Am I really in hell? Am I really a ghost? Did I really die? Then, that means, this is really Cell and that was really my dad. Hn…hell…I deserve to be down here, I deserve to die and spend eternity with my enemies. This is what I get for killing my dad. Why doesn't Cell just attack me and make me pay instead of teasing me? Hn…he's mocking me, making fun of me. If he thinks that I will just stand here and let him hit me with all he's got then he's wrong. I'm gonna fight on, I may have failed everyone but I don't want to fail myself too and let Cell have the satisfaction of beating me to nothing.
Gohan placed a leg behind the other and raised his fists in a fighting stance. "Give me all you've got Cell." Gohan said and lunged for Cell. Okay so maybe this isn't such a good idea. I mean look at me! I can collapse any minute now. Gohan thought as he was about to land a punch on Cell's face. Cell moved his head swiftly away from Gohan's attack and attempted to grab him by the wrist only to have his hands pass through his wrist. The same strange cold sensation spread through Cell's body from his hand. He can survive in any kind of climate, he shouldn't even notice a little chill. But this feeling was not a little chill, it felt painful and grief-stricken that if he doesn't get his hand away from Gohan, it feels like his heart might freeze, not that he has one.
Cell quickly withdrew his hand from Gohan's wrist. Slowly the icy feeling disappeared. Both Cell and Gohan looked at their hands. Cell's hand was feeling normal again in no time where as Gohan's wrist is now bleeding. Gohan stared on in shock. Blood. Why do I see blood on my wrist? Cell hasn't managed to do anything to me, yet my wrist feels like it has been squeezed and shattered. It was like before when Cell punched me in the face and Freiza kicked me in the ribs. Their attacks had gone through me yet I still felt the pain. Why? Does this mean I'm not a ghost? Why am I transparent? Why aren't I solid?
Gohan was kicked back to reality by Cell. Cell's kick landed right through Gohan's stomach. Soon the young half saiyan dropped to his knees. Blood spilled out of his mouth as he began coughing and struggling to breathe in air. It felt to Gohan like Cell's kick had tore his stomach open. I can't take any more of this. Gohan thought as he was grasping air into his lungs after he stopped coughing, all the while Cell was watching with amusement. If I want to live through this and find out just exactly what is going on then I have to get away from Cell and Freiza until my wounds heal, that is if I'm still alive. It doesn't seem like my wounds would heal anything soon. I better get away from here fast and find a place to hide. This just feels too real to be a dream.
Gohan gathered up his strength and slowly got to his feet. He looked right into Cell's eyes and spoke words too calm to be coming from a frightened, confused and injured child. "I'll be back later." He said and lifted off the ground and flew right through Cell.
