Right now, the fight between U12 Sixteen and U19 Eleim is on. The Heloite has pinned the android to the ground with some gravity device embedded in his armor.
'Give up now, or I'll finish you off,' he threatens.
'No,' Sixteen replies in his robotic tone of voice.
'Sixteen!' U12 Trunks cries, worried. 'You have done all you could. Give up!'
'Why are you so stubborn?' Eleim asks, trying not to show his concern but remain threatening instead.
'My sense of honor shall not allow me to resign,' Sixteen answers, not showing any fear. 'I will gladly accept being hit by your blast and going to the shadow realm instead.'
Trunks sweatdrops as Eleim charges his finishing blast and says in his head: 'I have to save my planet, even if that means reducing a totally sentient being, albeit a mechanical one, into pieces.'
'Err, Sixteen, I don't know how to break this to you, but you won't go to the Shadow Realm,' Trunks tries, awkwardly. 'You'll just die.'
The fallen Sixteen turns his head to his comrade. 'Wait, what?' he says, really fast and having taken a more human expression, but retaining his robotic tone of voice nonetheless.
'I have began charging my blast,' Eleim cries. 'It is too late to stop it now, even if I wanted to!'
'Are you sure blasts do not send you to the shadow realm?' Sixteen asks, his robotic voice now revealing some concern.
'Err... almost totally sure,' Trunks sweatdrops. 'Powerful blasts mean death.'
'What about having your head reduced to a pulp by a kick coming from a vastly superior opponent?' Sixteen asks, now talking very fast. 'Doesn't this mean you go to the shadow realm either?'
'Nope. This means death too!'
'What about an opponent's fist piercing through your abdomen?'
'Still death!'
'What if I selfdestruct with the bomb Gero implanted in me?'
'So death!'
'The blast is almost fully charged,' Eleim's cry interrupts their conversation.
Sixteen has a pensive expression for a while. 'Isn't this fanfic written by 4kids?' he finally talks to Trunks again.
'Err... no,' the Saiyan keeps feeling awkward.
'Crap baskets, I think I just made a fucking terrible mistake,' Sixteen says really fast, horrified but still in his robotic tone of voice nonetheless.
Before he can finish the sentence above, the blast annihilates him.
Trunks remains silent, grieving for his friend. 'Don't worry,' U1 South Kaioshin pats him on the back. 'He'll come back to life with the dragonballs later.'
'But I thought that dragonballs cannot revive mechanical beings,' Trunks wipes a tear.
'And I thought that a soccer manager of Jose Mourinho's caliber would have enough dignity to leave by himself when everyone in the squad hates his guts instead of waiting till they fire him so that he gets his millions of dollars worth of compensation,' South Kai replies. And, patting Trunks once more, he continues meaningfully: 'Obviously, we both were wrong.'
Bonus: A scene from the (never aired on TV) 4Kids' version of Dragon Ball...
Cell is about to fire his ultimate kamehameha.
'No, this will send us all to the shadow realm,' Krillin cries, terrified.
'Har har, this blast is powerful enough to send to the shadow realm not just the Earth but also the entire solar system!' Cell cries.
