The confused Cell looked at Blond (A/N: I didn't know there was a difference between blonde and blond)
"What the hell do you think you're doing?" I yelled.
"When I first got here I didn't know if I was going to win or not… but now I know I can't win." said Blond
"what's he talking about Vi'?" asked Eresa nudging me.
"I… don't… know…" I responded.
Who would take Blond's place? The other guys on the side lines looked pretty weak and Dad had a stomach ache.
"If you give up I will wreak havoc upon the planet!" Cell threatened.
I was too scared to say anything.
"Don't worry. There's another person you have to fight."
"Who?" cell and I asked together.
"My son." said blond as he pointed to the kid.
I felt like there was a little man inside of me who had nothing better to do than stab my heart over and over again.
"What? I refuse to fight anyone less powerful than you!" Cell fumed.
I felt like fuming too.
"He's just a boy you're crazy!" I yelled at the TV.
"Yeah get out of there kid!" Sharpner added.
"Are you nuts?" yelled Krillin.
"Dad… me?" the boy stuttered.
"Son, you're the one who will beat cell,"
"No Dad is" I said without thinking.
"Shush!" whispered Eresa.
"You can do it. You had no trouble keeping up with the speed of the fight. And you thought I was holding back because you were comparing my power to yours. You are stronger than me. Go beat him for me."
Every one on the side lines gasped.
"Ok, dad. I will." I boy nodded determined to win.
"Krillin give me a senzu bean." Blond said holding his hand out.
"Sure" Krillin said tossing him a weird bean thing.
"Hey, Cell catch. You're gonna need this! It's not fair that Gohan has to beat you in your weakest form." said blond as he tossed the bean.
"Do you want him to die?" yelled Krillin.
I felt my eyes get teary. 'Why do I feel this way about someone I haven't even met?' I thought as I rubbed my tears away.
"Videl are you crying?" mocked Sharpner.
"NO I'M NOT PENCIL HEAD!" I screamed and gave him a fat lip.
"OK! OK! Sorry, shesh!" Sharpener mumbled covering his mouth.
"Don't worry Videl I'm sure he's not going to die." Eresa said happily.
I gave her one of my best glares. The boy stepped into the ring.
"Who's that?" asked the announcer.
"I think he's the Refreshment boy"
Boy, dad is dim.
"Oh, yes. Excuse me! Refreshment boy! Do you have a coke on you?" called the dimwitted announcer.
All of a sudden a hurricane of light and energy swirled around the cute boy.
"A hurricane, look out!" I yelled hoping he could hear me.
Eventually the hurricane died out and the boy remained unscathed. Faster than the speed of light they took off. Every punch that Cell made and connected felt like the little stabbing man had found a chainsaw. The boy did seem to hold his own though. He may be a little stronger than me. Almost every kick or punch made He was able to block! The boy slammed his fist against cells face then blocked a side kick with one arm. Suddenly they disappeared.
"I HATE it when they do that!" I fumed.
They appeared in the air and appeared to be equally matched. A white light surrounded Cell for a second. Then Cell battered the boy into some mountains. Tears ran down my cheeks. 'Stop it right now Videl! I promised myself to never cry again!' I thought as I took a deep breath. The boy got up but was thrown right back into the mountains. The little stabbing man with the chainsaw is picking up the pieces of my broken heart, pasting them back together and starting all over again, stupid little stabbing man. Cell started to throw glowing balls at the boy. Most of them missed but two hit him right on. Cell appeared in front of the boy and sent him down hard next to a mountain and the mountain crumbled on him. The little stabbing man has gotten his hands on a nuclear missile.
"He's dead?" I whispered in sorrow.
"Oh, my God!" shrieked Eresa.
"That monster!" yelled sharpener.
"Now, it's finally time for Mr. Satan to fight!" said the announcer.
"Uh… Oh, this stomach ache is so bad." moaned dad as he rubbed his stomach.
"Oh, poor Boy!" Erasa cried.
"That was almost too easy!" Cell chuckled.
All of a sudden the rocks exploded and out came the cute boy. He had golden light surrounding him as he flew up into the air to once again face off with cell. Even though it was a trick it was a pretty cool trick. Now he had a bloody lip and a bloody forehead.
"He looks like a god!" cooed Eresa.
I ignored my ditzy friend. What was going on? That kid had suffered too much damage to just have a bloody forehead and lip. The boy calmly walked up to Cell as if it where another day at the beach.
"We don't have to do this Cell…" He started.
What did he mean by that? For the first time since we turned on the TV I wasn't yelling or beating up Sharpner. Instead I was staring at that boy. Did that mean he wanted to give up, or that he wanted Cell to give up or that he wanted to spare Cell's life? I looked at the boy with a curious expression. He was so mysterious to me, so many secrets just waiting to be found out.
"This fight Cell, It's meaning less."
Cell started to laugh at the boy. I glared at Cell. How could someone be so cold as to laugh at someone willing to spare your life?
"Do you really think I'll stop my Cell Games just because you think there meaning less!" Cell continued to laugh.
"Yes" The Boy responded in a serious tone of voice.
"Let me explain something to you. If you don't fight and beat me now I won't stop! I'll destroy the earth!" Cell sneered.
"Even though you're Evil I really don't have any interest in killing you." He responded.
"That boy is crazy!" I claimed.
"What did he say?" Eresa squeaked.
"Didn't you hear; he doesn't want to kill Cell!" I responded.
"Like he could!" Sharpner sneered.
"Ignore Him, How do you hear what they're saying? They're talking WAY too quietly!" Eresa said.
I blinked a few times. Even though I didn't know it back then I already had started a bond with that kid ever since I saw him. Yes, it was extremely weak and fragile but it was enough so that I could hear every thing that they said.
"That's so strange…" I muttered innocently.
"Did you just threaten me? What makes you think that you can kill me?" Cell chuckled.
"I now know what my dad meant. I know now why I'm the only one who can take you down! When I was just a little boy, A Saiyan warrior named Raddiz came to the earth. He was just like you, He enjoyed hurting others especially my dad. Raddiz continued his ruthless torture and I was trapped inside his space ship, but I could still hear my father's screams. Each time he screamed out in agony my heart cried out along with him. The pain I felt about not being able to help him was maddening. Then something happened… something snapped… the pain that I felt became so great that I lost myself in it. A furious blinding force began to flow through me. And I knew only one thing; I had to help my dad no matter what. That was the first time I found out that I had a hidden power, but I didn't know where it had come from or how to use it. Fortunately those where things Piccolo was determined to teach me. I think Piccolo realized my power for what it was. He knew the only way for it to surface was if I were faced with a crisis so great, that I had no other choice but to use it. This wasn't a voluntary decision on my part, it was more like a feeling a gut reaction that was beyond my control. Once again I lost myself and the power emerged. Piccolo knew this would happen but I don't think even he expected my power to be as great as it was. I would learn even more about my hidden abilities when we were on Namek, fighting against Frezia. Krillin was hurt really badly, but I knew there was still a chance to save him. I tried to get to him as fast as I could but before I had a chance to do anything Frezia was right there, laughing. Krillin, my friend was sinking to the bottom of that lake dieing. And Frezia, that cold-blooded monster was actually enjoying it. I couldn't control what happened next… I attacked. I didn't care that Frezia was greatest fighter in the universe… I didn't care that he had the ability to destroy entire planets with one finger. All I knew was that I had to help my friend and the only way to do that was through Frezia. I still don't know how it happened… My memories of those moments aren't really that clear. I was lost in a ragging swarm of emotion; unable to control my actions… like a switch had been pulled… something opened up deep inside of me and once it opened nothing could stop my power from rising to the surface. For those few moments I was an unstoppable force. Once unleashed the hidden power inside of me was enough to bring Frezia, the most terrible tyrant the universe has ever known crashing to his knees. That was along time ago and since then I've gotten real stronger. I think my dad realizes that if you were to push me too far there'd be no telling how powerful I'd become. What damage I could do…" The boy explained.
A billion questions swarmed through my head. Who was Raddiz? What or Who where Saiyans? Was he a Saiyan? Who is he? What does he mean by Hidden powers? How do you harness energy? Who was Frezia? Was Frezia a Saiyan too? If Frezia was such a terrible tyrant why hadn't I heard of him? Could this boy really defeat cell? What was he? Where did he get his powers? Was he stronger than my dad? Why did that boy seem so familiar? And yet with all these questions I could still understand him. 'He doesn't even sound like he completely understands himself' I thought with a caring look on my face.
"What did he say Videl?" Eresa asked nudging me a bit.
"Nothing…" I lied.
I really don't like lying to my friends but I didn't want to tell anyone about his business. Cell laughed.
"You fool! You've just given me something to work towards!"
Everyone gasped.
"That Jerk!" I screamed.
"That's right kid; you're going to show me your power!" Cell continued.
And with that Cell charged after him.
"RUN KID, RUN!" Sharpner and Eresa screamed at the top of my lungs.
I fought back tears that were threatening to run down my face. Cell kicked him down and put one foot on his head, crushing it. Cell then grabbed Him by the collar and yelled
"Do you hear me? I want you to be furious!"
"LEAVE HIM ALONE!" I screamed throwing a fit.
"Videl, there's nothing we can do for him!" Eresa said comforting me.
Cell went into a furry of punches. I felt every punch that made contact.
"And Cell as just delivered the Delivery boy another furious attack!" yelled the stupid announcer guy.
'You'd think by now they'd realized that kid isn't the delivery boy!' I thought and shook my head in shame. Cell disappeared and reappeared in front of the other strangers and swiped a bag that Krillin was holding before Krillin could give Blond a weird healing bean thing.
"Hey!" I yelled annoyed with Cell.
Angered the Boy charged after Cell but ended up in a vicious bear hug. After listening to the Boy scream like crazy Cell released him.
"He can't beat Cell, he's just a boy!" Eresa cried.
"Duh! That's what I've been saying this whole time! Only Mr. Satan can defeat Cell!" Sharpner yelled.
I was starting to agree with Sharpner. For a second I was shocked. A part of me actually thought this young boy could beat Cell instead of my Dad? My Dad was more suited to beat cell. After all he was the World Martial Arts Champion.
"A mere boy can't defeat Cell only a man can do the job!" Dad proudly claimed.
"Oh, does this mean your stomach is better and you're gonna fight?" The announcer asked excitedly.
Dad clutched his stomach and moaned in pain. I sweat dropped. Ok rule dad out on that one. Suddenly a very muscular red-head with a weird outfit came from the side lines and put cell into a bear hug. I couldn't help but cheer for the brave stranger.
"I am going to self destruct and take you with me cell" the read head's voice was computer-like and almost emotionless.
He started to glow. I squealed in fright and shock and sunk into the couch. But nothing happened. I expected to see the guy blow up and his and cell's guts to go flying everywhere.
"W-wh-what?" I stuttered.
"Oh, Now I remember! Bulma told me that she removed 16's self destruct unit because they thought He'd use it to kill Goku!" Krillin revealed.
"They know THE Bulma Briefs?" Eresa asked.
"What IS that guy?" I asked.
"16…that's a weird name!" Sharpner snorted.
Eresa and I glared at him.
"It's better than being named after a Pencil Sharpener!" I screamed glaring daggers at him.
Sharpner shut-up instantly and slumped into the couch.
"Sorry 16 but I don't think an explosion like that could kill me anyway!" and with that Cell blasted 16 to bits.
"Th-that monster!" I stuttered with a look of disgust plastered on my face.
Eresa went into a crying frenzy and Sharpner muttered
"Well at least we know he's a robot."
"Hey look his head survived!" I pointed out as it rolled towards my Dad.
"If I can't make you angry by inflicting pain on you I'll just inflict pain on your friends!" Cell yelled.
A weird looking tail popped out of Cell's back. The tail released seven blobs.
"Eww… what are those?" Eresa squealed.
"I have a feeling we don't want to find out!" I said.
The blobs turned into little chibi cells.
"Aw, they're so cute!" Eresa cooed.
Honestly Eresa can be so ditzy.
"Now, children, see those people on the cliff? They're our enemies! Go torture them! It's ok to kill them!"
Cell laughed pointing to the strangers on the side lines. The tiny monsters dashed off to the seven Strangers. Two strangers turned their hair blonde. "How'd they do that?" Eresa asked. They dodged every kick and punch that the strangers made. 'Wait… why didn't Cell make a Chibi cell for Dad? Does he know that Dad would beat them or… No it couldn't be! I Dad weaker than Cell and Cell doesn't even want to bother with dad?' I shook that thought away 'No, couldn't be! Dad's the strongest in the world!'
"Ok I've changed my mind those things aren't that cute anymore!" Eresa said watching the chibis torture the poor strangers.
It was ridiculous! Punches faster than the eye could see! The small and tiny chibi cells were actually beating those adult men!
"The unknown band of Strangers are being pumbled by these new little monsters! Everyone is fighting at once in an all out punching frenzy! No rules! No order! And no hope for any of us!" The announcer guy cried, "Unless of Course you're ready to fight, Mr. Satan?"
"Hey just because I don't cry about my serious stomach virus like a sissy, doesn't mean it still doesn't hurts!" Dad yelled.
I sweat dropped. Please tell me this wasn't my father. He was nothing like me! I fight my own battles! I'm not a coward! I'm honest! I'm not a poser! Unfortunately I won't see my father's entire fault's until I'm older and met the mysterious boy.
"This is horrible!" Sharpner yelled.
The battle worn boy got to his feet and started to growl. He looked as if he were deep in thought. His hair started to act differently too!
"We can't keep filming! We'll be torn into little pieces!" Cried the camera guy
"Yes, Good point! The viewers will understand! Why don't you say we get on out of here!" the announcer guy cowered.
"NOOO!" screamed every viewer at once.
"Maestro Hurcle Go with them yes?" Powroski begged.
"Go if you want but a true champion never runs from danger!" Dad said stubbornly.
"Yes! That's the dad I know, a brave Hero!" I cheered.
"But first I have to go to a hospital to fix my stomach of course but then I'll return!" He continued.
My face faulted.
"Now I'm off to the doctor so I can come back and win!" Dad said walking off.
"Wait!" called a computer-like voice.
"No… it couldn't be!" I muttered
"That red-head guy! How is he alive? Cell blew him up!" Eresa yelped.
There wasn't much of the guy left, just his head.
"Please help me" the head continued.
"EKK! A TALKING HEAD!" Eresa screamed
"Before you go please take me to the area where the rest of them are fighting." The head continued.
"The head… it talking!" cowered the less than bright announcer guy.
"Please it is for the good of the earth." The head continued.
"You must be insane; Cell and his minions are out there!" Dad whined.
My heart dropped. My idol, my hero was being a coward? Surely you'd laugh at me now for having Hercule as an idol but if you found out your idol who you'd thought was the greatest thing in the world turned out to be a coward what would you do?
"Yeah that's right! We can't let our Hercule go into this mess!" The announcer guy agreed.
"I thought you'd be eager to help the planet. You are its greatest champion are you not?" The head said with a small smirk.
"Hercule is the World Champion of mankind and that doesn't include monsters like you and Cell!" The Announcer guy argued.
"Hey shut up! They might be monsters but I can crush them all with one hand! I just need a doctor first!" Dad said.
Some of the weight on my heart lifted. At least Dad wasn't a total coward.
"Help me… Champion." The head said.
"A couple of Nobody's and even a kid are fighting cell! It would be wrong if I didn't help!" Dad said picking up the head.
"I will help you!"
All I could see was my dad quickly running up to Cell and throwing the head to the boy. After that Dad quickly dodged behind some rocks.
"16?" The boy asked a little shaky from watching his friends get tortured.
"Let it go. It is not a sin to fight for the right cause. There are those who words alone will not reach. Cell is such a being. I know how you feel. You were always gentle you do not like to hurt. I know because I too have learned these feelings, but it is because you cherish life that you must protect it."
Cell groaned in disgust once he saw 16's head. Cell walked over let 16 say his last words of encouragement to the boy and stepped on his head. My eyes bulged.
"That heartless monster!" Eresa wailed.
"That's it Cell deserves to die!" Sharpner yelled.
I looked at the boy with concern. I could tell that this robot thing had once been his friend. I wanted to see his reaction. His face looked as if he was lost in sorrow but he found his way out by turning that sorrow into blinding rage. It scared me for a second. I could feel my heart pound.
"What's happening?" I yelled
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" the boy screamed the top of his lungs.
Streaks of lightning swirled around him an even bigger hurricane of light swirled around him. His hair spiked up and dust and rocks flew as if it were a tornado. The energy was flying every where. And with that the TV went on the fritz and I fainted.
