Oh my gosh! Chapter 4! Only one more chapter till the special reedited ending! But, alas, we're on this one first. Alrighty! I only got one review for my last chapter. I know you have already read the chapters deleted, but it would be nice to tell me what you think of my new ideas. My last chapter had a lot more Sariell and Cell relationship stuff. Kind of. Bah, curse it all! Here's the chapter.
I do not own Dragon Ball Z. But I own Sariell, unless someone else thought of her first. I'm pretty sure they have not. But if they have, too bad. So sue me.

Chapter 4: Sariell's True Colors.
Everything seemed to go in slow motion.
Meanwhile, Sariell's head was raging a silent war as her two sides battled it out. Her two sides included her responsible, sensible, rational side, but also her crazy, impulsive, irrational side.
Her sensible side was saying something along the lines of; Cell's fine. He can handle that blast and besides, he doesn't need my help! I can just stay where I am.
Her impulsive side disagreed, you don't know what that blast could do! Cell may not be strong enough to block it! I punched him through a wall for heavens sake! Do something! Even if he's an android, I can't just let him get hurt!
Sariell's mind battled for a little longer, before one side won.
Guess which one.
Without another thought, Sariell dashed and planted herself in front of Cell just as the blast impacted.
Several different opinions took place after this.
Trunks yelled out, "What is she doing?"
"What's it look like she's doing, boy! She's protecting Cell!" Vegeta snarled.
Cell, however, didn't say anything. Didn't even move. What was inside his head was much more interesting; what does that half-Saiyan think she's doing? Why would she jump in the way like that? …Almost as if she were defending me. But WHY would she do that? I just don't understand it!
When the light finally cleared, Sariell was in a defense position, arms crossed over chest in an X position kind of thing, and still smoking slightly.
Trunks ran up to Sariell, ignoring Cell for the moment. "What are you doing!"
"You wouldn't understand." She said softly, letting her arms fall to her side.
"Why were you protecting Cell?" Trunks continued.
"It's just…I don't know. I just couldn't let someone get hurt, even someone as bad as Cell." Sariell replied.
Both were unawares that Cell had disappeared.
"Don't you get it, Sariell! He's evil! He'd kill you! He wouldn't do the same for you!" Trunks roared.
"No, #17!" We both turned to see #18 shriek as her android brother got Cell's tail latched on to him.
"NO!" Trunks went to cut Cell's tail off, but Cell was ready this time. Without stopping his absorption, he batted Trunks away, sending him sprawling into the dirt.
"Sariell, stop him!" Goku pleaded.
Sariell hesitated; she did have the power. But she was rooted to the spot. Blind fear took her over.
For, you see. Sariell does not scare easily. She's one of the bravest people ever. But, as Cell was absorbing #17, his power-level was rocketing. Sariell shuddered; she'd never felt anything like it. Cell's power was already terrifyingly high, and it was still rising.
When it finally stopped, Cell looked much different. He had big pinkish lips, his once pink eyes had gone pale blue and he looked much more humanoid than before.
This was probably one of the first things Sariell noticed, before scolding herself. He's not human! No matter how much I may wish otherwise, he's not human. He never will be…
"Hmn…this look is much more fitting than the last." Cell murmured. He looked around, eyes trailing to #18, #16 and slowly setting on Sariell.
"This is all your fault, Sariell! I came to the past to try and change the future and you've only helped it! The world is doomed, thanks to you!" Trunks cried angrily.
Sariell cringed; I thought Trunks was my friend…
Cell, in the meantime, appeared before android #16 and said simply, "Opposing me? Naughty, naughty." He fired a Ki blast that sent #16 flying into the nearest rock.
Goku suddenly appeared, "Everyone. New plan. We get out of here, till we have a better plan. There's nothing we can do at the moment. We should make use of the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. It'll make us stronger."
Everyone agreed, except for two who weren't listening.
Tien and Sariell.
Tien was watching Cell with a thoughtful expression, and Sariell was doing pretty much the same.
Goku used his instant transmission to teleport everyone away, except Tien, Sariell, and of course, the damaged Piccolo, who hadn't moved since being shot.
Tien started flying in the general direction of Cell.
"What are you doing? You can't attack Cell! You're not strong enough!" Sariell gaped.
"I have to try." Tien argued.
So, Sariell could only watch as Tien got into a position above Cell.
Cell was looking hungrily at #18, before realizing Tien meant to oppose him. "Fool. What does he hope to achieve…"
Tien made his hands into a triangle shape and cried out, "TRI BEAM HA!"
Cell was thrown into a hole in the ground.
Sariell winced but another part of her felt like crying out; Unbelievable! She wondered if she should help. But then she wondered; help whom…
This went on for some time. Tien threw Cell back into the ground with his Tri Beam attack. Cell sometimes nearly got out, but then Tien would slam him down again.
After awhile, he stopped to yell at #18, "What are you still doing here! Get out of here! NOW!"
#18 watched with her mouth open for a few more seconds, before nodding, grabbing the damaged android #16 and taking to the air very slowly.
Tien continued, "TRI BEAM HA!"
But, Tien was no android. He did not have unlimited energy. After awhile, he began to tire.
He cried out his last, "TRI BEAM HA!" and fell to the ground.
"Tien…" Sariell murmured, now hovering in the air, undecided.
Cell got out of his hole and landed, shooting a look of such hate at Tien, Sariell flinched.
She thought hopefully; maybe Cell won't hurt him? Maybe he won't.
No such luck.
Cell walked somewhat calmly over to Tien and lifted his foot above the defeated warrior's head.
"NO!" Sariell took off and hit Cell with as much energy as she could.
To her shock, it only tilted his head back slightly. It was as she feared; he had become too strong for her to beat.
Cell was also in the same opinion, because he cackled, "My dear Sariell, it seems you best me no more!" And with that, he hit her so hard she was flung backwards.
"Leave…her alone!" Tien said weakly.
"That's not up to you." Cell turned back to Tien, but to his surprise, Goku was in his way.
"Goku!"
"Yes. You will pay for what you did to Tien and Piccolo, Cell! Just…not today. I need to train." Goku picked up Tien.
"I've waited all this time to face the legendary Goku, and all you say is see you tomorrow?" Cell snarled.
Goku ignored him and used Instant Transmission to reach Piccolo. "Piccolo! You're still alive!"
"He is?" Sariell weakly got to her feet.
Goku noticed her for the first time, coming over. "Sariell. I'm so very sorry. I wish I didn't have to do this, but…the others, they said you're a danger. They want…they want you to stay here. I'm sorry. You cannot be a Z fighter with us anymore."
Sariell nodded; she couldn't expect any more. They had done enough for her. Although, that sense of belonging vanished, and she felt somewhat lonely.
Goku disappeared, and Sariell just realized what that meant.
She was alone.
With Cell.
Who was in his second form.
In a really, really bad mood.
