Chapter 1: Adhere to Power
It was unusual, too unusual. There was a feeling of a foreign force in the air, yet it seemed somewhat familiar. Gohan had felt it for some time since he left his house. It was a feeling of hate and anger that seemed to belong to a ghost that would haunt a mansion. As Gohan was halfway to Orange High, he tried to pinpoint what it was and where it was coming from.
"I don't remember it at the house. It can't be actually here, because I can't sense anything physical. Why is it so familiar? Somewhere in the regions of my mind, I know I've sensed this before."
Gohan was now about to enter into the Satan City limits. He assumed it was nothing to be concerned about and tried to focus on where he was going. Just as nimbus was about to pass over the forest, something hit Gohan in the spine. After a mild shock, he stopped nimbus and turned around to see what had hit him. Nothing. There was nothing for miles. He stood up and shouted.
"OK! Whoever you are, show yourself! Are you afraid to hit me when I'm looking?"
Nothing answered him. All there was to see were the birds that were startled by Gohan's shout. The silence was a little too much for him.
"I must be losing it. Maybe I should cut down a little on the studying, just a little. Maybe I'm having a psychosomatic lapse. At least my fighting reflexes are still good."
"Yes they are."
Gohan looked around franticly. He still saw and sensed nothing in the area. After landing nimbus and placing his feet on the ground, the voice came back.
"I see you haven't been training since then. Don't worry. It's not a problem."
"Who said that?" Gohan asked to nothing. "What are you?"
"Oh, please. Don't tell me you can't recognize your old friend."
"You're in my mind, aren't you?"
"Even your father could have deduced that more quickly than you. Are you sure you learned anything in school?"
"Then you must be using some sort of telepathic technique, like King Ki."
"Not exactly. And for your sake, I would stop talking and just think. You sound crazy talking to no one."
"I must be. I'm hearing voices and feeling phantom pains."
"Oh, that hit in the spine. That was just me."
"You? What are you? Do you also have telekinetic power?"
"There you go again with that stupid question. ' Who are you?' You know who I am, Gohan. I certainly know my executioner."
"Now who's crazy?"
"If I cannot jog your memory, then this will."
Suddenly, Gohan heard voices from the past.
He could hear his child voice. "Kaaaameeeee…haaaa…meeeeeeee…"
"Now you die!"
"HAAAAA!!!"
"You fool! Don't you realize yet you're up against the perfect weapon!"
He could hear Piccolo, Krillin, Yamcha, and Tien shouting out there attacks.
"Please guys. Not too close! Be careful!"
"They just keep lining up to die!!"
Then he could hear his father telepathically. "Release it Gohan! Release everything! Remember all the pain he's caused! The people he's hurt! Now make that your power!!"
"Say goodbye! Ha ha ha ha ha…huh!" A loud boom was heard in the background.
"VEGETA!"
"NOW'S YOUR CHANCE!"
"AAAAAHHHHHHGGGGGGG!!!"
"Ahhgg! Ahhgg! AHHHHGGG!!! IDONTWRRAAABBBRRAAAACH!!!!"
"Ring a bell?"
"The Cell Games. Cell!"
"The one and only."
"It can't be you! I killed you! You're…"
"…dead? I can assure you I am, at least in a physical sense."
"Then what the hell are you doing in my mind?!"
"That place you mentioned. You sent me there."
"Wrong Cell. You sent yourself!"
"And you're my way out. Thanks to my creator, I have transferred my mind and power to your body."
"Dr. Gero? How?"
"He was working on a way to physically escape hell, but he hasn't perfected it yet. I forced him to use it to do this very act."
"What for Cell?"
"Revenge. With your power combined with mine, I shall kill your precious family and friends. Yes…I will enjoy devouring them."
"I won't let you do it!"
Gohan staggered around the forest. Cell was already taking over his body when his legs refused to move. Gohan used all his will power to try to force the fiend out of his mind, but it only made him feel a tremendous amount of pain.
"I won't let you do it! I won't!!!"
"This isn't like our last battle Gohan. I will have your mind and body."
Gohan raised his hands into the air and started to shout. The ground started to shake and the air started to whirl around the half-Saiyan. An aurora of yellow fire surrounded him as his hair turned yellow, and his eyes turned green. The trees started to be up rooted. Gohan's eye turned pure white as he yelled even more; his hair was now spikier. Ascending beyond a Super Saiyan, Gohan's body started to generate electrical currents around him. The ground started to crater under him, and everything around him was blown away. He gave one last shout and collapsed on the ground. The power around him had settled, and he returned to his normal state. Gohan opened his eyes to see the ground. He looked around and saw the damage he did. Then he laughed. Soft at first, but gradually became louder. It was not Gohan's voice emitting from mouth of his body, rather it was the sound of a deep, British-accent tone. Cell had won.
Tell me if I should keep going. I accept any comment.
