"Dragonball AS: Ultimate Cell Saga"

Chapter 68- "All Hell Breaks Loose"

By- Tiny

Goken stood watchfully in the front of a martial arts dojo, one of the ones owned by his grandfather as a matter of fact, and carefully kept his eye on the inexperienced, yet promising crowd of students. Most had already mastered the art of ki manipulation, a marvelous feat in itself, and it brought a small sense of pride into the Saiya-jin's heart at knowing he was their teacher. Well, one of them anyway...

Off to the older man's side was his cousin Goshin, although most would've mistaken them for twins at first glance, barking instructions at the terrified students nearby. Both Saiya-jin took great pride in teaching at the school of their forefather's, although Goshin had done so more to support his children then for enjoyment as Goken had done. Still, they were two of the best teachers in the whole division and that alone was something to boost their egos.

Two of the students in the front, in particular, managed to hold a constant gaze from the watchful instructors as they battled it out in front of the crowd. Both were humans, that much was evident to anyone, but there was something about these particular humans that bared watching, and with good reason.

Human's with the kind of potential that was abundant in the Z fighters were extremely rare, so much so that it was believed that the Z fighters were the only ones who could advance the way they did. These two, however, had energy levels that far surpassed any of the other students in the dojo despite being only a few years older than Goshin's twins. It was quite a sight indeed to watch the two fight, but Goken eventually had to intervene when things started to get rough.

"Alright guys, what have I told you about that?" the Saiya-jin said sternly, "You have to keep your energy down to a minimum when sparring inside the dojo. Do you both get that? Tyrone? Angela?"

Both children looked up innocently at their instructor, their wide, almost believable grins reminding Goken oddly of himself at that age. Tyrone was no secret as to where all his power came from, being the son of Trevor and the dark-skinned fighter's wife, a normal woman named Kayla. The young human boy wore his hair in dreadlocks, just like his father was so famous for, and was clad in the modified version of the Kame school gi, a pair of orange cargo pants with a blue weighted t-shirt and an orange vest over all that.

Angela, on the other hand, was of no relation to any of the older fighters and yet still had a power level that put most men three times her age to shame. The human girl had shoulder-length red hair and hazel eyes, not to mention a temper that gave even Vegeta a run for his money. She too was clad in the modified gi of the Kame school worn by all new students, her hands in her pockets as the instructor glared down at them.

"Master Goken, this is just boring though!" Tyrone groaned, "These other guys aren't even a challenge to us anymore and you keep insisting that we train with them around. It's not fair!"

"At least you get to train with a more powerful fighter at home," Angela huffed, "I have to put up with parent's who get mad at me for fighting at all but can't do anything about it."

"Well, you two might just get a good spar sooner then you think then," Goken chuckled, "Yuno's bringing his star student by later today, not to mention the fact that the twins and Damien will be here in about a half hour."

"Really!?!" the two children beamed, "Gokou and Vejita are coming? Plus Damien and Kyle? This is too good to be true!"

Goken smiled as the two jumped around excitedly at the prospect of sparring with their friends, promising a real challenge to end the day. Gokou and Vejita, Goshin and Bikini's little boys who looked remarkably like their namesakes, were a favorite amongst the young fighters. Damien, Lee and Shell's son, and Kyle, a young boy trained personally by Tien and Chautzu, were also skilled fighters in almost every aspect of the word and it was always quite a sight to see the six young ones fight.

Goshin came over to his cousin just as the two children ran off to get ready for their upcoming spar with the Saiya-jin twins and their other two friends, smiling from ear to ear. He knew that the children were excited at the idea of fighting with their most challenging opponents around, save the older fighters, but also knew that Goken had forgotten to tell their student's about two others that were coming along.

"You didn't bother telling them that Chiku and Koshi were coming along, did you Goken?" Goshin smiled, reminding the older Son of his cousin and Boxer's son.

"Oh no, they're coming along?" Goken gulped, "After what happened between them and the twins last time?"

"Yeah, Boxer just told me this morning," Goshin nodded, "Said something to the extent of Koshi not being beaten by a sissy girl and her double-teaming relatives."

"Oh boy," Goken shook his head, "Can this day get any worse?"

In the dismal, dusty terrain that is Hell, a lone figure sat staring blankly across the plains at the others fighting amongst themselves in the pits. This man was rather tall with skin that looked like the exoskeleton on some kind of an insect, like a locust or something to that degree. His purple eyes glared down contemptuously at the others battling below him, inferior to him in all aspects of life as far as he was concerned. He was probably the strongest fighter in Hell next only to a stray Saiya-jin or something, and that gave him a sense of pride that was rivaled only by his massive ego.

This being was known to everyone simply as Cell, the 'perfect' creation of Dr. Gero's vast intellect and scientific laboring. He was a bitter, angry, and egotistical being and had been ever since his arrival in the dusty wasteland, killed off by a child not even half his age. That alone was enough to anger the bio-android to no great ends, but it did little good since he couldn't escape his prison.

Things hadn't gotten much better even after Cell's only real friend down here, the former Kurudo-jin tyrant Frieza, had simply vanished into thin air and never was heard from again. They had all learned later that the lizard-like being had been reincarnated as a human female and was killed by yet another Saiya-jin, although she had not yet shown up in Hell. Cell would have liked to see his old friend, despite the changes in appearance, but figured it was best to stay miserable in the mean time.

"You look down, my large friend," a raspy voice coughed, "Why the long face?"

"Nobody asked for your observation's Babi-di," Cell growled, "But if you must know, I am bored! There is nothing left to do in this infernal prison except fight and bicker over senseless bullshit!"

"I agree, but there is nothing we can really do about it," Babi-di shrugged, "Or, on the other hand, is there someway to escape?"

"You know something wizard," Cell realized, stalking over to the impish man and hoisting him up, "Tell me what you know now or else!"

"Or else what?"

"Or else I'll blast that bulbous little head of yours into nothingness."

"Very well, but this is solely between you and me do you understand?" Babi-di gulped, "I wouldn't want anyone else to know about this little development."

"I grow impatient, wizard," Cell grumbled, "Speak now or I will reduce you to nothingness!"

"Alright already, I'll spill," Babi-di sighed, "There is a spell that I've recently come across in my books that can, oddly enough, rip a hole between dimensions and allow people from one to filter into the other."

"What does this have to do with me?" Cell cocked an eyebrow, now interested in the wizard's ramblings, "I'm no wizard."

"No, but you are a powerful and vengeful person Cell," the wizard chuckled, "Would you not like to claim your revenge on those who have wronged you in the past and see them grovel before they die?"

Realization as to what the wizard was hinting at hit the bio-android like a ton of bricks going a hundred miles an hour. Babi-di had somehow found a way to travel out of Hell and into the living world, only without the aid of a guardian's magic or some inventor's machine. The prospect made Cell's body almost tingle with excitement and bloodlust, his smirk reminding Babi-di frighteningly of the Saiya-jin prince Vegeta.

"Do what you have to do, wizard," Cell laughed, walking off to the battle pits, "I'll be waiting...."

NEXT TIME: The monstrosity Cell and the devious wizard Babi-di, through the aid of some ancient spell, are planning a little excursion into the living world to exact revenge on the Z fighters! This will take some time, but even the wizard doesn't know how much and Cell has to keep things quiet. Will he be able to keep this a secret for long or will the other residents of Hell decide to tag along for the ride? More importantly, will the Earth survive yet another threat to it's safety after only a few years of peace? Find out in the next installment of Dragonball AS!!!!!!!
