"I'm bored," stated Aquaria.

Cell stood in silent meditation, ignoring her.

"Hello? Mr. Cockroach person? Are you even alive?" called Aquaria from the side of the arena. Cell's cold magenta eyes snapped open, "What did you call me?" he snapped.

"Mr. Cockroach person!" grinned Aquaria.

"Why?" frowned Cell.

"Because you never bother to call me by my proper name so why should I waste my precious time learning yours?" sniggered Aquaria.

"My name only contains one syllable, even you shouldn't have trouble learning it," snorted Cell.

Aquaria huffed, "I liked it better when you were an animal!"

Cell turned his head to face her, "I never was an animal, I was simply trying to amuse myself."

"What about the time you saved my slippers?" she asked, still staring up at him with her hypnotic chocolate eyes, "And you put me over in the arena when I fell asleep!"

Cell blushed slightly, "You would've run away." he mumbled, trying to avoid her doe-like eyes.

"No I wouldn't have," replied Aquaria quietly.

Cell looked at her, stunned, then shook his head, "Foolish human." he muttered.

Aquaria leapt to her feet, "Okay! That does it! I was going to wait until the Cell games, but not any more!" she shouted, "When you see my 'secret weapon' you'll be begging for mercy!"

Cell snorted. Aquaria ran over to her bag and pulled something out.

"Ha, ha!" she cried in triumph, holding out a can of Raid.

Cell gave her an odd look, "What are you going to do with that?" he asked, confused.

"You're a bug stupid! Now that I have my 'secret weapon', you will bow before me! Mwuhahahaha!" Aquaria laughed maniacally.

Aquaria ran right up to him, so close that Cell almost went cross-eyed. Aquaria shook the can up, and sprayed a cloud of Raid right in Cell's pale face.

Cell didn't move, "See? I thought I had already told you that only humans are affected by-" Cell was cut short when he sneezed, cutely.

Aquaria giggled, "See! I told you so!" she smiled. Cell sneezed again, just as cutely.

Aquaria's dark chocolate eyes melted into a concerned look, "Cell? Are you okay?" she asked sympathetically.

"Damn- achoo! Piccolo's- achoo! Allergic Cells!" sneezed Cell, sneezing like a cat would.

"Here!" offered Aquaria as she handed him a handkerchief.

"Thank you," he grunted, before blowing his nose.

"Um, could you blow that up when you're finished? I don't really want any Cell bogies, okay?" she smiled nervously.

Cell promptly vaporised the used handkerchief, "I doubt you'll be participating in the Cell Games. I'll give you a lift home," offered Cell.

Aquaria shook her head, "No way! I'm not just going to sit around at home stressing out the last days of earth's life!"

Cell continued to stare at her, his piercing magenta eyes slightly clouded with thought, "I am going to take you back to your house wether you like it or not," he stated, before picking her up and carrying her like a normal person would.

"I'll spray you again!" threatened Aquaria, taking out the can of Raid.

Cell smirked and destroyed the can before she could even register the fact that he'd moved.

"Oh you're so mean!" she cried, her doe-like chocolate-brown eyes showing a mixture of determination and worry.

"And you are perfectly stubborn!" he retaliated harshly, making Aquaria shut her mouth at once, "If you stay, you certainly will be blown up in the first five minutes at least! And who is to say I am going to blow up the world anyway," he muttered.

Aquaria looked at the ground and hunched her shoulders, "I live just on the outskirts of Ginger town, a cottage in the woods with a letterbox carved out of a tree." she told him quietly.

Without a word, Cell levitated up into the air and sped off.



Aquaria sighed as he dropped her off, "How do you make a green Gorilla?" she smiled.

Cell raised an eyebrow, "Where do you get all these jokes from?"

"Cross a blue gorilla with a yellow one!" she smiled.

Cell made a funny face, Aquaria just laughed him.

"Goodbye Aquaria," he farewelled and then turned around to fly off.

"Bye Cell! Good luck with the Cell games!" she smiled, waving at him before disappearing inside.

'Maybe she does like me. even a little bit.' thought Cell, he shook his head, 'No. Impossible.'

Aquaria spent the next few days watching the TV to see if there was any more news about the Cell games.

"Aw! The world is gonna end in three days and there is nothing on TV about it!" moaned Aquaria, lying on her bed, watching the TV and fussing with her long blue hair.

She was wearing jeans, and a white t-shirt under a white trench coat, and of course, her bright pink, fluffy bunny slippers.

The sun was filtering through the partly opaque yellowish-gold curtains that hung loosely over the cottage windows, bathing Aquaria's bedroom in a warm, yellow light. Aquaria was afraid, she knew that if pushed, Gohan could easily kick Cell's head-like butt and it would be all over.

Aquaria was about to doze off, when she heard the news bulletin that they had sent an army over to deal with Cell.

Aquaria sniggered inwardly and turned up the volume, some idiot reporter was sitting in the back seat of one of the army cars. Which, like the others, was loaded with multiple nuclear Weapons. Aquaria could see the camera zoom in on Cell's solitary figure. Aquaria went silent, Cell seemed almost. lonely.

It all went too fast for Aquaria to follow, one minute they were shooting up at the sky, then Cell came into view, and blew up the military.

Aquaria yelped and hid under the bed, as if the explosion would escape from the TV and hit her.

Gohan watched the phone intensely, trying to make up his mind wether to call Aquaria's number or not. Goku had said that Cell was holding Aquaria captive, but Gohan wanted to see if she was home or not, or if Cell was holding her captive in her own home.

"Ring her. ring her not. ring her. ring her not." murmured Gohan.

"Gohan! You are either going to ring her or do your homework! Don't waste time!" yelled Chichi.

Gohan gulped and quickly dialled Aquaria's number.



Aquaria got up from under the bed when she heard the phone ringing, 'What should I do? I'm supposed to be being held captive by Cell. Not at home!' thought Aquaria. She picked up the phone, "Hello this is Aquaria's house! I'm not home right now so please leave a message after the beep. Beep!" she answered in a fake, robotic voice.

"Hey Aquaria, it's Gohan. Just wondering if you are okay and such." came Gohan's voice.

"Aw that's nice!" smiled Aquaria, forgetting that he could hear her.

"Aquaria?!" exclaimed Gohan.

"Um, no! This is. a friend! Yes! A friend! She's a bit busy right now! Bye!" laughed Aquaria nervously, putting down the phone.

'That was close!' thought Aquaria, sighing. Aquaria curled up on her bed, and went to sleep.
