Resident Z 2: Search for a cure!
"Eww…"
Sherry tried to climb the rubbish once more as she had gone straight down and into the slurry pit below.
"Found anything?" Cell shouted from atop the fridge.
"No not yet."
Gohan continued wading around.
"You know, I have a degree in the art of chiropractics!"
"Really?" Gohan sighed looking at his spine sticking out of his skin. "At least it was kind of painless" he smiled and carried on searching. "OW!"
"What is it?" Cell jumped down, but hastily flew up into mid air before coming in contact with the slurry.
"Something but me!"
"Hang on …your spine snapping out didn't hurt you much ... but being bitten did?"
"It's strange being the undead" Gohan put his hand in his mouth. "Ew ... and unappetizing."
"Well don't worry you wouldn't eat yourself anyway but more to the point what did bite you? Surely Trunks didn't gnaw his way out of that sack?"
Cell looked at the small air bubbles coming up.
"Look..."
Cell pointed to them and Gohan looked on with a lazy eye.
"ROAR!"
"EEEK!"
Cell leapt up into Gohan's arms as a small green slurry covered midget emerged from the deep.
"Help!"
Gohan began to sink due to the weight of Cell...
"Hey!" Cell yelled at the author. "I'm not heavy!"
Yes, yes...anyway.
"Help!" Gohan began to sink as his zombified limbs were too weak and his snapped spine did not help when he was holding someone taller and perhaps heavier then himself.
"Ha ha!"
The green slurry monster came closer, he slithered (more like swam) along through the slurry.
"We are doomed!" Cell screeched as Gohan became submerged.
No one around could help them as they were too busy trying to figure out a way to stop the spinning fan, however a small hand came up from the deep and grabbed the arm of the slurry monster.
"Hey!" The monster yelled as it pulled away and looked on as a small sack rose to the surface. "Oo! A present for me!"
Excited in an abnormal fashion the slurry monster began to open it.
"I recognise that sack!" Cell pointed,
"I recognise that abnormal excitement!" Gohan rose up dropping Cell.
"TROTENKS!" They both shouted at the same time resulting in their voices melding together.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Frieza turned around alarmed at the name shouted.
"Quick now's our chance!" Goku shouted as Buu grabbed Frieza's tail, covered it in pieces of scrap metal and shoved it in the fan.
"Hey!" Frieza turned back and squinted as the fan stopped when it collided with his tail.
"Hey look its Goten!"
Goku flew down and wiped the slurry from Goten's face.
"Daddy!"
Goten hugged him.
"What were you doing down there?"
"Well the vent was clogged with the stuff so I swam, oh and I didn't know which way was up so I just glided around a bit and when I finally found the way up I thought ... why not rise shouting ROAR!" Goten smiled.
"The whole family is sick..." Cell wretched.
"Are you insulting me…?"
Gohan looked at Cell who just frowned at him.
"Gohan, I don't know if you've looked in the mirror lately but your spine is sticking out, your moulding, rotting, you pupils have got back into you head and you have a lazy eye."
"At least I have a reason!" Gohan pleaded then felt strange as a small hand grabbed his kidney.
"Oh my..." Cell picked up the sack where Chibi Trunks had been. "It's empty..."
He looked at Gohan.
Goku turned with Goten laughing and saw the empty sack.
Meanwhile…
"So let me get this straight…"
The Piccle sat down on a nearby box and looked at Mika and Rotory.
"You are mercenaries sent by some organisation, and you are trying to find William Birkin so that you can take that which he has created off his hands and back to your employer?"
"Yes ... but I don't remember telling you his name."
"No I just assumed, as I did see the Smodov's nametag when he was next to me."
"What?" Rotory looked at him and then put his head in his hands. "I give up!" He pulled his helmet off and threw it to the ground.
"Come on now it's not that bad, especially now that we have The Piccle on our side!"
"Actually I'm not called the Piccle and just called Piccolo." He looked at the ground embarrassed.
"What?"
"I was happily training when I felt a bit tired, so I went to sleep then woke later to find I had been infected with a virus and was floating naked in a tank being smiled at by scientists."
"Ooook then." Rotory stood up and stretched. "I just want to kill Goku then I'm on my way."
"What so you're just going to forget the money we are being paid for this?" Mika walked over and put him in a headlock. "Listen pretty-boy! I did not wait around in a zombie infested city, mess around with people's diary's then narrowly escape The Vortex of Pointless Characters during this fanfiction just so I could see you ruin the mystery of your character and the confusing element in just one simple sentence and chapter!"
"Actually we all have now…" Piccolo sighed. "You know I can't actually remember anything other then my name, but I do know that I want Goku dead as well as you Rotory so let's just go."
He stood up, picked up both Mika and Rotory then flew off down the tunnel.
"Well at least we have transport..." Mika smiled.
"Yeah well I forgot my mask..." Rotory frowned.
"Damn you..." Piccolo slowed down, turned around and flew back.
Meanwhile…
"What now?" Cell asked as he looked down from the fridge top.
"Well we wait until he shows himself, then we jump him!" Gohan watched the slurry closely.
"No ... you jump him!" Frieza yelled from the fan.
"Why me!" Gohan looked round at Frieza nearly breaking his neck.
"Well because you are already dead and he can't infect you if he bites you."
"What about you and Buu!"
"Well I have already lost half my body today and Buu ... well ... he ... yes - Buu what about you?"
Cell looked at Buu clinging to his back.
"Buu no like smell! Buu fan!"
"Oh yes of course, he can't stand the smell and he's already been shredded by a fan!"
"Damn..."
Everyone except Frieza sat on the top of the fridge and waited.
BEEP BEEEP BEEEEEEEEEP
"What's that?"
"Well Father, my guess is either the filter or the compressor." Gohan watched as the slurry began to drain.
"Hey! Atleast this way we can see him flapping about like a fish!"
"Erm...yeah...who exactly is supposed to be down there?" Goten inquired with a smile.
"It's best you didn't know." Cell watched the draining sewage, waiting for the slightest movement.
"Somebody called Chibi Trunks I think." Sherry replied patting Goten on the back.
"Trunks!" Goten leapt off the top into the pool below.
"Not again!" Goku laughed "He is quite the squirmer" he joked.
"Yes, hilarious father ... except I think we should take out chances and follow him."
"Why is that? Are you mad?" Cell grabbed his shoulders and shook him.
"No but I think I know why the slurry looks to be getting smaller."
He looked up at the ceiling.
"Well it's draining..."
"Cell ... didn't you notice anything about the floor of the pit?"
"Apart from it being filled with waste, erm…"
He put his hand up to scratch his head but hit the ceiling with it.
"Hey!"
"It's not draining ... we are rising."
"But how!"
Goku lowered himself from the fridge with Sherry by his side.
"It's the compressor!"
Gohan flopped himself down and followed his father by sliding.
"EEK!" Cell shrieked as his horns snapped in half.
"Jump you fool!" Frieza yelled from the safety of the fan.
"Oh yeah!" Cell crawled down the pile and into the slurry.
"I found him!" Goten pulled Chibi Trunks up by his arm.
"Argh!" Gohan pulled him away and Cell caught the lashing boy.
"Thank God! Buu!" Cell called out but there was no reply. "Where is he! Oh no!"
"Don't worry" a voice came from behind the raised floor. "He took the smart option and crawled through the fan and into the shaft it was blocking"
"I just want to leave this smelly place." Sherry sighed while trying to keep herself up from the pit.
