Chapter 10

The Rematch: Gohan vs Cell

"Hey, Gohan, what did you mean when you said your friends race was almost extinct. I always figured you were human?" Sonic asked.

"Well, to be honest with you, Sonic, I'm not fully human." Gohan said. "I'm actually half human, half saiyan."

"What's a saiyan?" Sonic asked.

"A saiyan is an alien race that loves to fight. They're basically addicted to it. I also love to fight." Gohan said.

"Yikes, no wonder you're so strong. Kinda makes me jealous." Sonic said.

Suddenly, a large explosion just occurred, and made Gohan and Sonic jump outside to see Cell, in his complete form.

"Why hello there, Son Gohan. Happy to see me in my perfect form?" Cell asked.

"Cell, how did you transform? 17 and 18 aren't even here!" Gohan said.

"It was actually surprising for me too. One minute I'm in my imperfect form, the next, I have all my power back. I hope you're ready, Gohan, because I don't plan on losing to you this time." Cell said.

"Did you forget what I said back there? I told you I got a lot stronger since then. I'm probably at a level far above yours." Gohan said.

"Hmph, we shall see, Gohan." Cell said, flying towards Gohan and punching him towards Sonic.

"You haven't gotten any stronger since than." Gohan said, punching Cell in the gut. "I probably don't even need to super saiyan to beat you." Just than, a green light almost hit Gohan and Cell.

"Citizens, watch as I protect this young child." Naugus said.

"Oh, yeah, you protected me all right, by almost killing me." Gohan said.

"Who is this worm?" Cell asked.

"He's nothing. Now where were we?" Gohan said, kicking Cell into Naugus.

"Hsss, back off, child, I'm trying to help." Naugus said.

"I don't need your help 'king'." Gohan said. "Hey Sonic, can you get rid of him?"

"With pleasure." Sonic said, turning into a ball and hitting Naugus down.

"I hope you don't continue to waste my time, brat." Cell said, blasting Gohan with a kamehameha wave, but Gohan deflected it back towards him. "You really have gotten stronger since than, haven't you?"

"I've doing a lot of training so people like you would now go down easier." Gohan said, blasting Cell with a masenko.

"Ugh, you know, I figured you would be taller after 7 years. Did you stop growing or something, shorty?" Cell asked.

"I don't know what happened, I just turned into a kid, is all." Gohan said, Kicking Cell into a tree. "You know I'm going to defeat you, right Cell?"

"Stop being over confident boy." Cell said.

Gohan and Cell jumped at each other and were locked in mortal combat. So far, Gohan has the upper hand, but Cell transformed in his super perfect form.

"Let's see if you can handle this without becoming a super saiyan." Cell said.

"I swear to you, I won't need to go super saiyan on you." Gohan said, punching Cell in the back, and blating him to pieces.

"That's gross and everything, but at least you beat him." Sonic said.

"I didn't beat him yet Sonic. It'll take more than that to take him out." Gohan said.

"Honestly Gohan, did you have to be that messy?" Cell asked.

"No, I just wanted to mess with you. I know how to kill you Cell, so you better give up now while you can." Gohan said.

"HA. That's a joke, right?" Cell laughed, smacking Gohan into Sonic. "So far the fight's even, Gohan."

"Just wait until I get down to business. Than I'll show you." Gohan said.

"Do you need anything Gohan?" Sonic asked.

No thanks, I'm good." Gohan said. "I just need some more time to prepare."

"Are you cooking up a scheme?" Cell asked.

"Tell me something, did you kill Dr. Gero?" Gohan asked.

"Of course I did. I would've destroyed the fat lard over there, but he got away." Cell said.

"You killed your own creator!? That's sick!" Sonic said.

"Gero was a nuicence. I needed to free myself before he could use that dreadful off switch." Cell said.

"You really haven't learned your lesson, have you Cell." Gohan said.

"Let's face facts, Gohan. You need to become a super saiyan in order to defeat me. But you're afraid that these creatures will fear you, isn't that right?" Cell asked.

"Why do you want me to become a super saiyan so badly? You remember what happened last time. I nearly slaughtered you." Gohan said.

"That was the past. I don't intend to lose this time. I hope you're ready, boy." Cell said.

"You saying you got any stronger since than?" Gohan asked.

"No, actually, I haven't." Cell said, realizing that Gohan had spent the entire 7 years training.

"You look like you've seen a ghost. Are you scared or something?" Gohan asked.

"Don't mock me! You'll regret it later!" Cell cried, launching a giant Kamehame wave at the city. Gohan deflected the kamehame with another kamehame.

"Like I said before Cell, give up. You're no match for me now." Gohan said.

"B-be quiet!" Cell said, blasting Gohan, but a shield got in the way. "Wh-what!?"

"I shall not allow you to attack this city, or its inhabitants." Nicole said.

"Who might you be?" Cell asked, regaining his calm demeanor.

"Why should she tell you?" Gohan asked, disappearing behind Cell and blasting him until there was nothing left. "Good bye Cell!"

"NOOOOO!" Cell cried, getting destroyed. "I was so close to victory..."
