Author's Note: YAY! I finally updated! I have an excuse though; I've been busy with school because I got chosen for manager of the dance/drill team! YAY! So that's why it's been a long time before an update…

Gohan: Do not encourage her to torture me more! Those months off were relief!

Goku: Yeah! She just likes to torture us because she hates us!

DC1: That's not true! I love Gohan because he's so cute and adorable, but you, no! I hate you!

Goku and Gohan: WHAT!

DC1: You heard me! I didn't stutter!

Goku growled, "Then prepare for death, Cell!" Goku squatted down and yelled; harsh winds whipping up and blowing through the clearing. Gohan's body lay on the cold dirt, causing Goku to raise his power in anger.

Goku's hair rose even higher then his Super Saiyan form, save for two cowlicks in the front. His aqua eyes darkened to teal as his muscles bulged slightly. Goku straightened up as he finished his transformation.

Goku's cold teal eyes settled on Cell, glaring angrily at him. Cell backed up slightly, trembling in fear, "You've…ascended!" Goku nodded, "That's right, Cell. You don't stand a chance." Goku took flight, aiming straight for Cell.

Piccolo shifted his eyes from Goku and Cell's confrontation to Gohan. Gohan was starting to stir, his eyes slowly opening. Gohan sat up, just as Cell's clones flew forward to ambush and impale Goku.

"Dad! Watch out," Gohan shouted out. Goku's eyes snapped to Gohan, then to the forest, where he could see a shadow rapidly closing. Goku quickly jumped backward, skidding to a stop. Cell growled as his clones appeared and crashed into each other.

Cell whirled around to face Gohan, angrily glaring daggers at him. "Gohan!" Goku gulped; there was no telling what Cell would do to Gohan. "Brat! I told you to stay out of this! I warned you of the consequences and you're going to deal with them!"

Cell raised his hand up and fired a single ki blast at Gohan. Gohan raised his arms up in a desperate attempt to block or dissipate the damage caused by the blast. Goku gasped; there was no way that he would make it in time!

Gohan opened his eyes as he felt himself being moved out of the way. "Piccolo!" Piccolo gently set Gohan down on the ground, giving the tiniest hint of a smile, before grabbing the ki ring around Gohan's ankles and pulling it off. Piccolo shielded Gohan as the blast meant for Gohan's demise exploded, yards behind them.

Piccolo grabbed the ki ring around Gohan's wrist and gently tugged it off; he mentally winced as he saw the red rings left behind on Gohan's pale skin from Gohan struggling to get free. Pulling off the ki ring around Gohan's ankles, Piccolo rose to his feet, extending a hand to Gohan. As he helped Gohan up, he scanned his friend for injuries, noting only minor scratches and burns.

"You okay, kid?" Gohan nodded, swallowing before answering, "Yea." Gohan turned his head to look at his dad; Goku nodded slightly in relief, before turning back to Cell. Cell clenched his teeth, cursing under his breath. "Damn it!" Cell growled. Goku snapped, "If I were you, I'd be worrying about what I'm going to do to you instead of killing my son."

Cell turned back to Goku, eyes wide. The Z fighters stared at Goku; Goku had never been this upset. But then again, nobody had ever kidnapped, tortured, and attempted to assassinate his son while he was watching. Cell stared at Goku as the seconds ticked by, desperately trying to formulate a plan to stop Goku from ripping him to pieces. Gulping, Cell blinked, giving Goku an opportunity to strike.

Cell bent forward, clutching his stomach, blood dribbling out of his mouth. Backing away slowly, Cell shook violently. Goku glared at Cell, cold teal eyes staring into purple. Cell gagged as something big rose in his throat into his mouth. Spewing out Android 18, Cell withered in pain as he slowly transformed back to his incomplete form.

"You…monster! How dare you! I was perfect!" Cell sputtered angrily at Goku. Goku snapped back, "I told you to leave Gohan out of this! I told you not to hurt him! You didn't listen! This is your punishment!"

Cell and the Z Fighters froze in shock. Goku's tone sounded so much like Vegeta when he was angry. The look in Goku's eyes sent chills down each of their backs. Cell narrowed his eyes at Goku, struggling to keep his cool.

Smirking, he thought of a plan to wipe all of them out. "Goku…you may have outmatched me in power, but not in smarts." Cell suddenly started to inflate, bulging to an unimaginable size.

"Say goodbye Goku! Say bye to all your friends. In 60 seconds, it'll be bye-bye Goku, bye-bye Gohan, and so long Earth." Cell trailed off, laughing gleefully as looks of terror flashed upon their faces.

Goku gasped in disbelief, before dropping into an offensive position, ready to attack. Cell held up his bloated hands, "Careful! One wrong move and it'll be all over!" Goku stood up slowly dread washing over him. He had failed to defeat the monster that had terrorized the world and kidnapped his son.

Meanwhile, Gohan couldn't believe that Cell would resort to such cowardly tactics. His anger at Cell swelled up in him, causing his ki to rise sharply, sending him into SSJ. Piccolo backed away slowly as Gohan's ki rose higher and higher. With a cry and final burst of power, Gohan stood among the dirt and dust in the air, standing in SSJ2…

Chapter 3 is finally done! YAY!
