Aquaria dived down, following a school of tropical fish, to see the coral reef.

'It's so pretty!' thought Aquaria excitedly as she breathed through the scuba gear.

The majestic tropical schools of fish moved like a shimmering sheet of colour through the crystal-clear water. The coral reef was a wonder in itself.

Cell was sitting inside, reading the newspaper.

"Does nothing happen in the world any more? A bank robbery? Please, that would be an act of World Peace compared to what I could do," Cell snorted.

Then he came across one article, "Citizens fear Cell may not be dead?!" Cell read aloud.

'Gohan,' thought Cell sourly as he read the article, "Cell's armour had been found hidden in a cottage home to a miss. Aquaria Caidoz!" cried Cell.

'That brat! How could someone do that, he was supposed to be her friend!' thought Cell in anger.

Aquaria surfaced, the Sin gleaming down on her wet body.

"What the?!" mumbled Aquaria, noticing something sticking out of the water, "Oh my!" whimpered Aquaria.

"Shark! Shark! Shark! Shark!!! Cell help!!!" Aquaria cried, not moving.



Cell looked out the window, saw Aquaria, and the shark's fin swimming towards her.

"Aquaria!" shouted Cell, "Dammit shark! Expect no mercy," he growled, and fired a ki blast, and due to Cell's perfect aim, the shark was vaporised instantly.

Cell flew over to help Aquaria out of the water, Aquaria glared at Cell, "How could you?!" she protested.

"The shark? It was attacking you! I had no-" Cell was cut off by Aquaria.

"No! No! I hate sharks. The ki blast! Gohan!" explained Aquaria.

Cell cursed lightly and picked her up, and flew her back to the island.

"What? No 'sling-Aquaria-over-the-shoulder'?" teased Aquaria.

"No, because there is something behind us," growled Cell angrily.

"Oh no, three guesses to who it is," whimpered Aquaria.

"Yes. It's Gohan," murmured Cell.

They landed on the island.

"Cell?! What are you doing?! We have to get out of here!" hissed Aquaria as Cell put her in the house. "No. I'm not endangering you again. Wait in the house, if Gohan wants to fight, I'll go with him to another island," stated Cell firmly.

"Cell. . . Please don't go!" whimpered Aquaria, "I know Gohan seriously kicked your butt last time, and I'm positive that he'll try and kill you this time!"

"If I go. . ." started Cell, "You'll be safe here. I can't let any danger come to you. You are all that I have Aquaria. . ." whispered Cell, "I. love. you."

Aquaria was about to reply, when Cell dashed out of the house, to face Gohan.



Gohan stood on the beach, glaring dangerously at Cell.

"Gohan, I must congratulate you for finding us here. But I can't do the same for your lack for pity and compassion. You had every right to threaten me, but Aquaria had nothing to do with this," hissed Cell.

"Wrong Cell! Aquaria had everything to do with this! If it wasn't for her you wouldn't be alive right now!" argued Gohan coldly.

"And what's so bad about me being alive? I haven't hurt anybody, Aquaria and I were happy the way we were. You practically threatened to kill her! I see no need to fight any more, I've served my fighting purpose. Your father is dead, no one else needs to suffer," growled Cell.

"You killed my Dad! And all of those innocent people! I can't see one reason why Aquaria even had the stomach to go near you!" cried Gohan, powering up.

Cell looked at the ground, "Nether do I. . ." Cell looked up at Gohan, "But because of her I have a friend, someone I can talk to, someone who doesn't think I'm a monster and has accepted me into their life! And if I have to fight you to protect her, so be it!"

Gohan narrowed his eyes and shot a ki blast at Cell. Cell didn't power up, or even move, 'I would die for Aquaria. And now I have to!'

"Cell! Gohan! Stop it!" cried a feminine voice as a skinny figure ran towards them.

Aquaria ran in front of Cell, to block him from the ki blast.

"Aquaria! Get down!" yelled Cell, powering up.

Gohan, in his rage, didn't see Aquaria.

For Cell, it was the most frightening moment of his life, more frightening than worrying for his own neck. It was over in a flash, then everything went almost in slow motion. Aquaria's limp body lay on the sandy beach. Cell stood over her, tears streaming down his shocked face. Gohan simply stood there, horrified at what he had just done and the realisation of his actions.

"You killed her!" yelled Cell, to upset to even check her pulse.

"I- I didn't mean to!" protested Gohan weakly.

"Aquaria, oh please Kami no. . ." whimpered Cell, cradling the limp body in his muscular arms.

"Cell, I'm so sorry," apologised Gohan, resting a hand on his shoulder.

"Gone. . . I only ever had one person that ever cared. And now they're gone," whimpered Cell, continuous streams of tears falling down his face and onto Aquaria's.

Aquaria stirred and opened her deep, doe-like chocolate eyes to see Cell. He was holding her and tears were streaming down his face.

'Cell's upset?' thought Aquaria worriedly, "Who died?" she asked groggily.

Gohan was still trying to get over her death, "You did," he mumbled sadly.

"Aquaria?! Your alive!!!" cried Cell half in shock, and half in pure joy.

"I suppose. I think I fainted just before the ki blast hit, I fell to the floor and it zoomed over my head. Cell powered up just in time to fend off the ki blast," Aquaria smiled weakly.

Cell gently stroked her cheek with his thumb, "Are you okay?" he asked gently, still holding her. Aquaria smiled weakly, "What's the best way to call a Gorilla?"

Cell smiled at the bravery she had shown and gently hugged her to him.

"Long distance," Aquaria sighed, before falling asleep.



Aquaria lay, unconscious on the bed, while Cell and Gohan talked.

"She's going to be okay, isn't she?" stressed Cell.

"I dunno. The ki blast, although it missed her, could have damaged her internal organs. Kind of like radiation if you don't wear a lead apron when you get an x-ray," Gohan sighed. Cell stared at Aquaria, her breathing was harsh and laboured, "She's dying. . . Wait! What about the senzu beans?" asked Cell desperately.

"No, Aquaria is allergic to beans, and I haven't got any," explained Gohan.

Cell looked at Aquaria, then he saw something, "She's not breathing!" he cried, checking her pulse, and finding none.

"She, she's dead?! Again?!" cried Gohan.

"Wait here, there is only one thing that can be done," Cell said in a dangerous tone, before flying out of the window.

Gohan could only sit and watch his pen-pal's pale and dead face, "I- I killed her. . ." he whimpered, tears running down his cheeks.
