ChickFlick Chapter 2
Finally, they were all here together. Chichi was impatient to start the meeting, but she was nervous too. She made everybody sit down before she started.
"Ok guys," said Chichi depressedly, "what do you want to hear first; the bad news? Or... the bad news?
"Uh... the bad news I guess." Said Pan, looking around at all the worried faces.
"Ok." Said Chichi. Here we go, she thought. "I just got a message from King Kai. Have any of you guys seen your men since last night?" everybody silently shook their heads. "Well, Goku, Gohan and Goten haven't come back either. And early this morning, King Kai contacted me. He told me... he said that..." she hesitated for a second, then said in a rush, "Cell wished all our enemies back with the dragon balls and they stormed into the party last night and captured everyone. Someone's invented some special machine that shoots rays at people to stop them using energy attacks!!!"
There was a stunned silence all round as a million thoughts flashed through each of their minds.

It was all her fault.
That was the first thing Eighteen thought when Chichi told them her news. Poor Krillin. Poor everybody. She pictured them all locked up in some dark and gloomy dungeon, unable to use their powers to escape. If only she had never been made by Doctor Gero. Then none of this would have happened.

Bulma's hand flew to her mouth as Chichi finished speaking. Vegita... Yumcha... EVERYONE! [Of course she was no longer dating Yumcha but does that mean she can't care about him?!]. What was going to happen to them? Her fingers grasped her necklace tightly. She had always thought of it as her good luck charm. She remained silent, but her worried eyes told everything.
* * * * *
Pan bit her knuckles to stop herself crying out. Daddy! And all the guys! What was Cell and his stupid 'henchmen' doing to them?! She couldn't let this happen. Her eyes narrowed, and then burned with anger. It's Cell's fault. It's Cell who did this, she thought. Her hands balled into fists and her whole body vibrated with rage.
* * * * *
Videl's stomach gave a lurch. She always thought it was meant to be the other way around; the men were meant to save the beautiful damsels in distress. I guess this time it's gonna have to be us that does the saving, Videl thought ruefully. Oh, I hope they're all okay...
* * * * *
Chichi looked around to see her friends reactions. She had reacted the same way when King Kai had told her the news. Goku, Gohan and Goten meant more than the world to her. If they were gone......
But she rubbed a tired hand across her strained face, and, deciding that everyone had had enough time to get over the devastating news, she spoke up.
"Come on guys! We have to get them back somehow!" everyone looked at her with dubious faces. They knew how strong Cell was by himself, and they might stand a small chance against him alone. But with an army of henchmen...
"Ok, there's no use denying it, we're up against a tough one here. But if we train, we just might be able to do it! You know we've got to at least try!" reluctantly they agreed, and started their training session, with heavy hearts and worried faces.
