"So your true power has finally revealed itself. Perfect! Now we can get down to business!" Cell said as he looked at the transformed Gohan. Gohan looked down at Cell's hand and saw the bag of Senzu Beans and with a swift hand motion, stole the bag from Cell. Cell blinked before looking down at his now empty hand. "Wh-What!?" Gohan then vanished and reappeared in front of one of the Cell Juniors. He just stared at the little gremlin with a deadly gaze. Cell Junior lunged at Gohan, only for Gohan to sidestep the attack and swipe his hand through the Cell Junior. Literally through it, cutting it in half and causing it to blow up. "Oh…!"

"All right, would anyone care to explain THE FUCK!?" Vegeta shouted.

"He just...killed one of the bastards in a single hit…" Nappa muttered.

"After all the trouble we've been going through just to defend ourselves against them, Gohan took one out with ease." Raditz stated in disbelief. Gohan then looked over to where Krillin and I were and quickly moved over here.

"He's so fast!" Trunks exclaimed. "He's even faster than Cell is!" Gohan looked at the 3 Cell Juniors that were in front of me and Krillin and raised his hand towards them without a word. A small energy ball formed in his hand as he readied an attack. The Cell Juniors looked terrified as they flew away from Gohan, firing energy blasts at him as they did. My eyes widened as I grabbed Krillin and moved out of the way, but Gohan just turned and looked at the blasts as he did. The blasts hit and caused a big explosion. The CJs smiled before they turned around and saw Gohan right behind them. Gohan then vanished and reappeared in front of one of them and kicked the CJ in half, causing it to explode.

"Wh-What is going on right now?" I found myself asking in confusion.

"Is that really...Gohan?" Piccolo asked. The rest of the Cell Juniors flew at Gohan and began to attack Gohan. Gohan threw the bag of Senzu Beans up into the air and began to attack the CJs, knocking them away with only a few blows before catching the bag as it fell. The CJs got back up and growled as they attacked Gohan again. One of them threw a Destructo Disk at Gohan, causing Gohan to jump up into the air. The other CJs then jumped up as well and fired a Kamehameha, Special Beam Cannon, Double Sunday, and Galactic Photon Ray at Gohan. Two more then flew above where the blasts hit and fired two Tri-beams at Gohan as well.

The CJs smiled before going back to being completely stunned and horrified when they saw all of that did nothing to Gohan. He didn't even have a scratch on him. Gohan then screamed, firing multiple blasts straight out of his body at the Cell Juniors. The blasts destroyed some of the CJs, while also damaging others. Gohan flew to the injured CJs and glared at them. "I've had enough of you monsters as I can stand." Gohan muttered as he punched one of them in half, the two pieces of the Cell Junior exploding like the others. He then moved to another Cell Junior kicked him so hard he burst into pieces. He then flew to the two more Cell Juniors and kicked one of them in half before moving to the other one to punch it's head clean off.

Gohan then looked at the last Cell Junior and flew in front of it. He then slapped it down to the ground and moved to where he was going to land to kick it in half. He then looked down and stopped on the Cell Juniors severed arm, destroying the last traces of the little imps. "The hesitation...the unwillingness to fight...they've vanished. He's the Ultimate Warrior now, fueled by anger." Piccolo said as he helped Goku to his feet.

"This is what you wanted, Cell." Goku said. "Whatever happens, you brought this on yourself." The rest of us just stared in disbelief at the scene in front of us as Gohan turned his glare to Cell.

"Hand these out, Trunks." Gohan said as he tossed the Senzu Beans to Trunks.

"Oh! Uh, sure. On it." Trunks responded.

"Try to forget you're half-Vegeta and don't fuck it up." Gohan told him.

"FUCKIN'...!" Vegeta grumbled. Trunks didn't say anything as he handed each of us a Senzu Bean.

"So...what are we going to call this? 'Cuz it's way stronger than Super Saiyan." Goku asked after eating his Senzu Bean.

"I suppose for simplicity's sake, we could just call this Super Saiyan 2, I guess." I told him.

"Super Saiyan 2, huh? Yeah, that sounds good." Goku said.

"Guys, we should get moving. We need to get a safe distance away from the battle." Trunks told us.

"Yeah, let's move." I nodded as we all flew further away from Gohan and Cell. We made our way over to where Mister Satan and the other people were, since that was a fair distance away. "Hey, you guys ok?"

"Y-Yeah. We haven't had any problems ever since you brought us here." Jimmy told me.

"Wh-What is happening right now?" Mister Satan asked.

"I'm not sure, but I can tell you that Cell doesn't stand a chance against Gohan now." I told them as we watched what was about to occur. Cell only smirked at Gohan and readied himself for the fight.

"Come." Was all he said as Gohan rushed at him. The two began to fight, but Cell couldn't land a single hit on Gohan. Gohan was just effortlessly dodging Cell's attack as if he knew what he was going to do before Cell even knew. "You call that speed!?" Cell yelled as he tried to kick Gohan, only for Gohan to block that attack and start his own barrage of counter attacks.

"H-H-How!? How is the boy dodging Cell's attacks!?" Raditz asked.

"I should have known. I guess we're finally seeing the real reason why you wanted to fight Cell first, huh Goku?" Piccolo said. "You wanted to give Gohan the chance to study his opponent's moves before he had to face him himself."

"Is...Is that true Kakarot?" I asked. Goku only smiled as he continued to watch the fight.

"You did well. After watching you fight, Gohan's anticipating Cell's every move." Piccolo commented.

"No, I can't take any credit. It's all Gohan. He's fighting at a level way above Cell's now." Goku said.

"You think so?"

"He's kinda...awesome!" Krillin said.

"At this rate, he might just win!" Tien added.

"Don't get comfortable boy!" Cell told Gohan. "Even with luck on your side, the odds of beating me are hardly in your favor."

"You're wrong." Gohan responded. Cell's eyes widened before he composed himself.

"Yes. That's the spirit. Too bad you're gonna lose it once you've witnessed me in all my petrifying glory!" Cell then charged all his power to get to his full power. Gohan didn't even look impressed. "So then, still feeling like this is your lucky day?"

"Can't say that I'm impressed." Cell narrowed his eyes at Gohan's statement and punched Gohan in the face at speeds far greater than he had shown up until that point. Cell's eyes widened once again when he saw that Gohan didn't even look hurt by the attack. Cell went to punch Gohan again, but Gohan quickly punched Cell in the stomach before he could move. Cell mouth opened in pain as he spat out blood immediately. "Careful Cell. You're Vegeta's showing." Gohan then uppercutted Cell away several feet. Cell struggled to get back up, but kept falling back down to the ground. He repeatedly coughed up blood and saliva as he groaned in pain.

"Wh-What...in the…?!" Cell began to say. "T-Two punches! There's no way I should have taken this much damage from just two punches! Aaaaah! Damn it! I'm invincible!" He screamed.

"Cell, you don't get it. I hate this." Gohan told him. "The vibrations through my fists on contact… The taste of blood in my mouth… The sound of my heart in my ears… I hate it. I always have. But right now…in this moment…the only thing I hate more than it...is you. Because you were right about me. I was a coward. Scared of what would happen if I snapped. Afraid that, if I lost it this time...I'd never come back. That I'd finally...kill someone. But I'm not scared anymore, Cell."

"Well, g-glad I could-" Gohan then kicked Cell in the face and sent him flying several yards.

"Because there's no point in being afraid of the inevitable." Gohan finished. Cell slowly got back up and stared at Gohan in a mixture of fear and disbelief.

"No! I will not let this stand! I am Perfection! I refuse to be outdone by some sniveling Saiyan brat!" Cell shouted. "I am the Ultimate Lifeform! I will not suffer this humiliation! Destructo Disk!" Cell then created two Destructo Disks in both his hands and threw them at Gohan. Gohan just moved his arms and blocked the disks with his ki. He then screamed before dispersing them with his energy. "Rrrrgh! Comet Barrage!" Cell then created a multitude of energy orbs and shot them at Gohan, only for Gohan to destroy them all with a single hand swipe. Cell then jumped up into the air and fired a Special Beam Cannon, but Gohan just swatted it away.

"I...don't understand!" Cell muttered. "That a mere child's power could utterly eclipse my own...it's inconceivable! And this feeling...is...is this what it is to know...fear?" He then turned to Gohan, who was standing motionless while glaring at Cell. "...Oh fuck this!" Cell then flew as high as he could into the air and then created two energy balls that he compressed together. "Gemini...Ka...me...ha...me…"

"Oh goddamnit! He's pulling a Frieza and is going to blow up the planet!" I shouted.

"We need to move, now!" Raditz shouted as Cell's Gemini Kamehameha grew as large as a sun and then condensed into a tiny orb.

"I could've just done this from the beginning! Instead, I thought I'd have some fun, throw a tournament, but fuck you! Suck my perfect dick!" Cell shouted as he fired his attack. "HAAAAAAA!" The beam shot outward and grew incredibly large in size and strength as it flew through the air, spiraling as it slowly moved towards the earth. Gohan only tightened his hands as he looked up at the blast.

"Ka...me...ha...me…" He said quietly before bringing his hands together. "HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" He then fired an uncharged Kamehameha at Cell's blast. His attack immediately overpowered Cell's and pushed it back towards him. The wind was so great that it was almost like a hurricane. I created a large Saturn's Shield to try to protect us all as the blasts continued to move up to Cell. Soon, Cell's blast was completely absorbed by Gohan's and he had to create his own Saturn's Shield to try to protect himself from the blast. As the blast traveled upwards into space, we looked on to where Cell was.

"Holy shit!" Nappa shouted when we saw him.

"Hey kid!" Cell shouted from where he was. "YOU MISSED A SPOT!" His shield was still there, but it was missing 70% of it. The areas where the shield was broken were the parts of Cell that were completely destroyed. Cell looked like he was in the most pain he had ever been in.

"Gohan, remember why we're here!" Goku shouted. "It's time to finish this!"

"What? You're joking right? I'm not letting him off that easily. First he's going to make sure he suffers just like everyone else he's hurt." Gohan shouted back.

"What was that?"

"Is that really Gohan talking?" Piccolo questioned.

"What's he thinking?" I asked.

"Gohan! You've backed Cell into a corner! He can't win, and he knows it! There's no telling what he'll do now that he's desperate! End this while you have the chance!" Gohan didn't listen as he let Cell regenerate all of his damaged body parts.

"Alright Cell, we saw what losing your cool got you…" Cell muttered to himself. "So tone down the Frieza and chill the hell-"

"Done getting your shit together up there?" Gohan asked. "Because I'm starting to get bored." Cell grew giant as he landed in front of Gohan.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME, YOU HAPLESS LITTLE SHIT!?" Cell screamed.

"I said I'm bored. You're boring me." Gohan answered. Cell tried to slam his hand into Gohan, but Gohan dodged it. Gohan then flew at Cell and kicked him hard in his gut. Cell drooled in pain before he started heaving. He tried to cover his mouth and he bent over.

"So that's what's happening, huh?" Piccolo said.

"He's lost. His power is dropping like a stone." Goku added.

"Then it's just like I thought." I mumbled. "He can't sustain his perfect form anymore."

"Wait, then what's going to happen now?" Trunks asked. Cell couldn't hold it in anymore as he began to puke. Out of him came two very large objects.

"H-He just puked up Android 17 and 18!" Krillin shouted.

"They were swallowed whole! How are they still intact!?" Nappa asked.

"He's finished. This fight's over now." Raditz sighed. Cell got up from his knees and looked into the sky.

"FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!" He screamed. "Fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, NO NO NO, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK, FUCK!" Cell's body then began to shrink and change color as he lost all of his power. And then, it was over. He was back to his first form, tail and all. He then turned to Gohan and then looked down at the two androids. "Uh...so, uhh...gonna eat that?"

"...No."

"Then, uh, can I…"

"No." Gohan said as he kneed Cell miles away. "You know what? Now I actually feel sorry for you. You're pathetic."

"Gohan! Do it now! END THIS!" Goku yelled.

"Fine! Christ, if you want him to die so badly, kill him yourself." Gohan groaned. "Pretty sure anyone over there could now."

"Kill me?" Cell repeated. "No, no, no, no, no! I can't die from this! He's a middle-schooler throwing a TANTRUM! And I'm the perfect being!" Cell then turned to Gohan with a new found hatred in his eyes. "...I was. And he took it away! He took it away from me! So I'll take everything away from you!" Cell then screamed as he grew larger and wider, becoming a big fat version of himself.

"So what was the plan here? Become so grotesque I wouldn't wanna touch you?" Gohan asked. "Because I'll be honest, it's working."

"Oh, my dear boy. I think I finally realized what I inherited from you…" Cell told him.

"Not my BMI, obviously."

"Heh-heh! No, Gohan…" Cell began. "It was your explosive temper!"

"Oh no…" I muttered.

"Oh no!" Gohan shouted.

"OH YEEEEAH~!" Cell shouted. "You see, in less than a minute from now, I'm going to burst, and take you, and this whole wretched world with me!"

"So what you're saying is I have less than a minute to kill you." Gohan said as he got into a battle stance.

"Ah ah ahhh!" Cell stopped him. "Any attack could set me off! A punch; a kick; a wafer-thin mint! So how about you savor the time you have left, before I go pop! HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE CELL GAMES! BYE, EVERYBODY! GOOOO FUCK YOURSELVES!" Gohan then fell to his knees.

"We're...dead…" He muttered before hitting the ground. "I've KILLED us! It's all my fault! I could have finished him, but I didn't!" Cell began to laugh as we watched. We were all going to die, unless something happened. I knew what had to be done.

"Well, I suppose-"

"I guess I should go clean up my mess, huh?" Goku cut me off. Everyone turned to him with a confused look.

"Wait...I know that look." Krillin said nervously.

"I'm sorry. I've thought this over you guys, and anyway you slice it, there's only one sure fire way to save Earth." Goku explained.

"And that would be...what?" Piccolo asked.

"Wait, Kakarot! Think about this!" I begged. "You don't have to do this! I can do this! You have a family here! Think about them!"

"That's why I have to do this." Goku told me. "Raditz, Nappa, please hold Orion back for me."

"Wha-" I didn't get to finish as I felt Raditz and Nappa grab my arms. "Wait! You can't do this! Let me go!" They didn't say anything as they looked away from me with pained expressions. Goku then smiled as he put his fingers on his forehead and waved at us.

"All of you...my friends...take it easy." He said.

"Wait-!"

"Are you-?" Goku then disappeared right in front of us.

"GOKUUUUU/KAKAROT!" Krillin and I shouted as Goku teleported over to Cell and Gohan.

"D-Dad?" Gohan asked in a confused voice.

"...Hey son." Goku simply said.

"Wh-What are you-?"

"I-I'm sorry." Goku told him. "Fighting is… Well, it makes me happy. And I just thought it would make you happy, too! I want you to know that that year we spent in the Time Chamber was the best year of my life." Goku said with a sad smile. "Take care of your mom for me. Tell her I'm sorry that I won't be making it back."

"Hold on! Are you-!?"

"I'm proud of you, Gohan." Goku then gave Gohan a big smile before placing his hand on Cell. "Bye, son." And with that, Goku and Cell disappeared. Gohan got up to his feet to try and stop Goku, but he was too late.

"NOOOOO! DON'T LEAVE US!"
