If Cell knew everything of what he was in for that day, he probably would
have reconsidered. The two Saiyans lead him into the silver hallway with
the many doors, all the way talking about their dreams.
"It was so weird." Orenji whispered. "That Dream-Catcher really works. I had dreams that were all about sex. Not with me of course, but a bunch of horny guys." Ichigo snickered.
"That's nothing. I dreamed that vampires had taken over the earth and held me as their queen. And I had sex with one of them."
"What?" Orenji laughed. Cell's eyes rolled in disgust as the chattering continued. Finally, Ichigo opened the last door in the hallway. She flipped on the light and Cell saw what awaited him.
It was a large white medical room that looked like a dentist office with a large table in the middle. Ichigo pointed to the table and said, "Lay down." He sat uncomfortably and Ichigo sat on a rolling chair by his side. "Right then. This-is going to be very weird. But it's the only way to train." She paused, in search for something to say, but couldn't find anything. "I'm very sorry."
Cell sighed and looked up, swallowing hard. What was she going to do to him? "Have you ever been to the dentist?" Orenji asked. He looked up at her with a 'what?' written all over his face. "Well, just think of it like surgery without pain killers."
'What?!" He jumped up, but Ichigo pushed him back down. Orenji handed her a vaccine, which she injected into his arm.
"Don't worry. This stuff deadens the nerves in you, kind of like a Valium, so you won't feel anything other than the physical. Think of it like a root canal. I know what I'm doing, don't worry."
"Ugh." He wanted to complain, but he found it was hard to stay awake. As a matter of fact, he began to feel nice-bright. His body was loosing all feeling except when she poked him hard with her finger to see if he felt. He did, but it didn't hurt.
"Okay. Let's begin." She grabbed a pair of pliers and opened his chest from his breastplate. Cell had only a vague idea of what was going on as he felt her pulling and twisting on his insides. He could hear her asking Orenji- chan for objects, but the vaccine made it hard to understand. His body was very interesting to look at. He had a mechanical heart, which pumped artificial blood to the dermis of his skin. His bones were made of titanium, and his organs were computer chips that did everything that a real body did.
"His body is incredible." Ichigo said to Orenji. "The detail is amazing. Dr. Gero may have been crazy, but he was a genius. Now lets see, what needs fixings." She potted a broken bolt in his left kidney, and she took it out and replaced it with a new one. "His blood is made from Metallic AV; that's out of date."
"What do you want?" Orenji asked.
"Get me four gallons of Repto-Metallic. We'll start him off with that and see how he does." Orenji brought a large bucket of green glue-liquid, and Ichigo drained Cell's body of the purplish fluid and emptied the bucket into his dry system. Cell felt a new surge of energy that was painful and he gasped. "Give him some more of the vaccine." Orenji stuck his arm again with the needle, and he calmed down immediately.
An hour and thirteen minutes went by. There was a lot of noise and frustrated words coming from Ichigo. Orenji was in pure trance at Ichigo's amazing work, Cell could tell by her face. Suddenly, Ichigo's face emerged from the opened shell of Cell's chest. She was wearing a mask that had microscope binoculars and had needle-like scissors in her hands. She took off the mask and pushed his chest back down with a click.
"Well?" Orenji asked, arms crossed.
"He's good. No need to check any more. He seems adequate enough to train for a beginner, but we shouldn't rush him, not until the blood kicks into his system. He'll need to get use to it." Orenji nodded and walked over to Cell, her hands on either side of his head.
"We're done. You're fine and ready to train. You should wait a while for the vaccine to wear off. I'd say.oh.fifteen minutes. We'll just be setting up the first course." They both walked out of the room, leaving Cell dazed on the table. There was a strange new sensation in his body, and it felt horrible.

(Okay, side note here: If you're having trouble seeing the training room, remember the Power Puff Girl episode where Bubbles gets really tough? It's a lot like that training room and does the same stuff)
The fifteen minutes passed, and Cell was already up and wanting to get the hell out of that room. He felt just as strong as he ever was, and wondered what the big deal about testing was. Orenji-chan came to the door and led him out and into the door right across from it.
This room was very different than the last. He entered a small room that was like the one that he saw Ichigo in the other night. Sure enough, Ichigo was sitting at the desk, which was covered in buttons and levers and different computers that were all turned off. There was a large window, which showed a small white tiled room and nothing inside it.
"Welcome to your first training session, Cell." Ichigo said. "Go through that door and stand in the middle of the room. A little warning; don't be afraid of what you see. They're just graphics and we can repair you in any way possible."
"I'm not afraid of anything you have to throw at me." He smirked and went through the door.
Ichigo cocked and eyebrow as Orenji sat down next to her. "Uh-huh." Ichigo said as both her and her friend placed a pair of earphones on and Ichigo flipped on a switch, turning everything on.
Cell, walking into the room, saw that there really was nothing there, except a large mirror, which he couldn't see through. "What are you gonna do, pull up the gravity? Please, this is insulting."
"Shut up." Came Orenji's voice through an intercom and Cell jumped. "What you're about to experience is a virtual and physical mission into saving your own life. This is the first mission because you don't need agility or weight training, you get that all in this. Know that this is only the first, and the other twelve will be much harder. Do your best bishonen!"
"Stop calling him that." Ichigo growled, then coughed and said aloud, "Mission begins-now!"
Suddenly, Cell found the walls changing, expanding, and growing dark. There was nothing except blackness-he was alone. The gravity had changed to over two thousand, and his strength was depleting. "Um.?"
There was a buzzing sound coming from somewhere unseen, and Cell became anxious. If he couldn't see it, how was he suppose to-?
BANG!
Cell jumped and spun around. Levitating across from him was an oval like robot the size of a boat engine. It had large snapping claws and a laser beam from its forehead. The laser had blown up a piece of ground under them. Cell snorted. This was the big mission? He reached out and punched the thing so hard that it flew back twenty feet.
"That was bizarre was truly easy. Come on! Give me something I can really work with!"
As soon as he'd said it, he found that he couldn't move and was being pulled up. He looked up and saw that the robot was grabbing his shoulders- not a scratch on the thing! Oh well, maybe this was a slight challenge, nothing he couldn't handle. He reached up and tried to grab it, but it pulled up and threw him hard at the ground. Cell jumped up as it came crashing down at him and landed on his feet, but no sooner had he did than the robot slugged him as hard as it could in the abdomen. It was as if he was beating a half of himself! He gagged, but suddenly felt a surge of new found strength inside him-a power that Ichigo gave him-and grabbed the machine kicking it with all his power. This time, the robot fell and broke apart. Cell sighed and wiped his forehead.
Suddenly the lights came back on and he found that he was in the same room. The mirror became a window and Orenji-chan and Ichigo-chan were sitting at the desk, their hands to their foreheads. Orenji put her tongue between her teeth and smiled, laughing into her palm. Ichigo smacked her on the forehead and turned to the microphone. "That was very good, Cell." Orenji started to laugh again, and Ichigo kicked her out of her seat and onto the floor.
***
Cell sat in a chair in the hallway trying to recover from that very strange training session. Orenji was standing out with him. "Ya alright?" She asked. "I told you there was danger. We don't fuck around down here."
"I see that." He growled. "So it's like virtual reality that's actually real?"
"Yeah. Hey, it's the future; there are a lot of new developments. These were actually created by Ichigo and some other scientists a couple years ago. A break-through in sparing techniques. They're actually kinda fun if you get right down to it."
"You would think so, wouldn't you?" Ichigo said, coming out of the door and carrying a bunch of rolled up papers. "These are just your well- being inside the training chamber; basically how you did and your improvements over time."
"Am I going to be doing more today?" Cell asked, a sense of agony in his voice.
"No, not today. Tomorrow, yes. Today you can help me." Orenji said.
"Do what?" Cell looked up at her.
She smiled. "Help me with my art poses."
***
The next month Cell trained almost every day. Some days he had to repeat one or go back to an earlier session. He fought robots big and small, fifty- foot monsters, a giant metal dog (lesson eight), and even a Killian for lesson nine. He wasn't entirely ready for a lot of it. All they were doing was exercising his new body, but he still wasn't half of their strength. He didn't get to anything greater than nine, so they excepted that, and decided to wait it out till he got better. He tried getting use to their rules and their house, but wasn't allowed to go back out farther than the edge of the forest. The other people just weren't ready for him yet, not after the Killians.
Cell knew that life would get pretty strange from here on out, but just how far would he get?
(That is the end of the first story of Saiyans Of The Sun! Thank you so much for your attention and enjoyment of my story! Don't worry, it's NOT over! In fact, this story will be the longest story I've ever written; due I'm hoping for FOUR completed stories! This is only the first, and I promise you that you will NOT be disappointed with later chapters. Prediction: Marija learns of Cell, interests develop [not exactly what you may think], Edain has a big part, Ichigo's tragic past is presented, religious differences [you get to understand Mali and her past], some more attacks on Orenji's psyche from the unknown force.
