A/N: This is it, the final battle! It all ends here! Enjoy!
The Saiyan Princess bit her bottom lip, not wanting to let out a cry as the perfect Android reached out and hefted her by her golden locks. Dangling in the air, turquoise orbs burned loathing into laughing purple ones, a feral sneer escaping the female Saiyan as she visualized the numerous ways that she could kill him.
Trying to make her fantasies into reality Bra lunged forwards, only to have Cell laughingly seize her wrist. Flailing the rest of her limbs in a desperate attempt to break his hold, the Bio-Android put that to a stop with a swift punch to her stomach with the use of his free hand.
"I saw the look in your eyes you know. You seriously thought that when you ascended, that you now possessed the power to defeat me didn't you?" Squeezed her wrist tightly, hoping to get a cry of pain, Cell frowned when her rage-filled orbs didn't falter; if anything, her fury increased in intensity.
Instead of letting him continue his typical villainy speech, Bra gathered as much saliva as she possibly could, which was difficult as it was rather dry, and hurled it right at Cell's face. The Saiyan Princess gave a smug smirk upon witnessing the look of revulsion on the Android's face when her spit splatted against his face.
"My face…my perfect face…" he whispered, smearing her saliva off with a hand. "What have you done!?"
"Don't worry bastard, my 'Saiyan cooties' are clean!" Bra jeered, obviously enjoying the look of discomfort and anger across his features.
Bearing his teeth, Cell protruded his clawed handout, hovering it mere inches from her left breast. "You filthy Saiyan!"
"Do it!" she instigated, arching her back until her chest expanded. She tightened her jaw when his pointed black claws pricked her skin through her white shirt. "Come on! Do it!"
"Very well!"
Accepting defeat, Bra released a deep sigh, her body slacking as her spiked golden hair curled down like a dying flower, the wisps of aquarium tresses falling until they kissed the length of her pale neck. I'm sorry Goku…I tried…
Jerking his hand back, Cell thrust his hand towards her chest, grinning gleefully because once he took care of her, there will be nothing that could stop-
Seemingly out of thin air came the son of Goku, his fist cocked back and poised to strike as a warrior's cry ripped from his throat.
"Gohan?!" Bra and Cell exclaimed, though for different reasons.
His eyes widened with shock as the half Saiyan's surprise strike connected successfully, turning his left cheekbone completely into dust and causing him to relinquish his grip on Bra's mane.
Without hesitation, Bra took advantage of his dropped guard by pressing her palms between his stomach and chest and yelled-
"Final Shine Attack!"
Cell's enraged screams echoed loudly, tearing the sky apart as he soared further and further across the rising sun, leaving a glittering green trail of energy behind.
Watching the Android as he became nothing but a speck in the distance, Bra's shocked rounded orbs then landed on Gohan's, who looked somewhat uneasy and tense.
"Go-Gohan? How did you-?"
Reaching into his pocket, Gohan pulled out the remaining half of the Senzu bean. "One of Videl's friends found the bean lying around somewhere. It must have gotten lost during the battle."
"Videl heh." Bra murmured, smiling mischievously.
This unsettled Gohan. "Wh-what?"
Rolling and shaking her shoulders until her butchered jacket slid off her back and pooled onto the terrain, the Saiyan Princess dusted herself off and waved her hand in dismissal. "It's nothing."
Giving her a confused look, which only further amused the Saiyan Princess, Gohan extended his hand over Bra's open hand and dropped the bean onto her palm.
Eying the bean while furrowing a brow thoughtfully, Bra said. "Gohan…I don't think I can do much…just take it yourself and try-"
He shook his head. "No, I can't do this alone! Just eat the bean please…"
Staring at a pair of pleading eyes that were nearly identical to his, Bra sighed, flicking the bean into her mouth. Crunching the magical bean first before swallowing it, she tightened her muscles when her strength returned. Bringing forth her Super Saiyan power to the surface, her aqua hair turned blonde within an instant. Chewing on her bottom lip hard enough to nearly draw blood, Bra searched even deeper within her, trying to find the power to ascend…
Got it!
Releasing one loud grunt, Bra ascended into her Super Saiyan 2 form.
Gohan frowned.
"What's wrong?" Bra inquired.
"That's it?"
"Ehh? What do you mean that's it?! At least I'm much stronger than you right now!" Bra shouted, looking and sounding similar to Bulma.
That can't be right…what about that blue hair form she did earlier? Maybe it wasn't a transformation after all…
Ignoring her outburst, he pocketed his hand and drew out the vial, which immediately caught Bra's attention.
"The virus…" She whispered, looking at the vial in his hand. "I forgot about this…this could have helped us beat the other Cell…and-and even have stopped this bastard from killing-" she choked back a cry when the memories of her soulmate's death seeped into her mind.
Grabbed one of her hands and giving it a squeeze, Bra was taken aback when she saw Gohan wearing a smile, a smile that was so unlike all the others he had given her. It wasn't forced and had no bitterness, resentment, or hatred; it was downright sincere and well, it warmed her heart, soothing some of the pain of her recent loss. Returning the gesture while she wiped her tears away with the back of her wrist, the younger half Saiyan withdrew his hand.
"Bra…we're going to be okay…" Gohan said with a smile.
Bra didn't miss the double meaning.
ZIZZT!
"That's where you're wrong boy!"
With a wave of his hand, Cell hurled an energy attack towards the two half Saiyans, grinning victoriously as he knew his aim was perfect.
Seeing that Bra was too frozen in shock to evade the attack, Gohan threw himself into the target's path without a second thought. Gohan screamed, his eyes whitening as scorching hot pain flooding his body when Cell's 'Perfect Shot' collided with the center of his left arm, the force of the attack easily snapping his bone clean in half.
Eagerly waiting until the cloud of dust settled, the Bio-Android gave a fanged grin when he saw the smaller half Saiyan rise onto his feet, his left arm bleeding profoundly as it hung lifelessly at his side.
"Oh hell…" Bra whined, standing upright while eying the damage that Cell's attack had done to Gohan.
Saving the World
While everyone looked on in horror at the turn of events, Vegeta was furious.
"Maybe I should have taken the bean because the both of them are morons!" The Prince shouted. "They should have saved that sentimental bullshit for a time that all our lives aren't in jeopardy!"
The others couldn't agree more.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxTHE-CELL-GAMESxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
"Gohan…"
"Don't apologize. It was either you or me…" Gohan coughed, his orbs half-lidded as he glared at Cell. "I didn't have a choice…"
From the corner of her eyes, she took note of the fact that Gohan had lost grip of the vial.
Fuck!
Kick it…
Huh?!
Just kick it…
Gohan?
Yes! Just kick it behind you! If Cell see's it we're really screwed!
But he'll see me move!
I'll take care of that.
Throwing back his working hand, the half Saiyan jumped into the air and yelled. "Masenko-Ha!"
Now!
Cell defecting Gohan's blast gave her just the right amount of time to cover the space between her and the vial. She quickly rolled it under her feet and punted it behind her with the heel of her boot. This was stupid! I should have just picked it up!
It would have been too obvious! At least this way, it's safe from harm.
So what are we going to do now?!
Gohan didn't have an answer.
Flaring up his sinister electrifying aura, Cell ascended higher into the sky. Cupping his hands together, he spread his legs apart as he brought his hands down and slammed them against his hip.
The two half Saiyans took a step back, not liking where this was going.
"I've grown tired of the both of you, the others and the whole damned planet!" A blue orb of energy began to wink into existence, rolling and growing rapidly between his palms.
"The universe is extraordinary and vast, filled with billions and billions of species, stars and planets!" the blue ki ball churned faster, rotating faster and faster as it glowed brighter.
"I could be out there exploring the billions of galaxies in the universe, obtaining greater knowledge and strength just so I could become that much more perfect! Yet here I am, wasting my precious time on two filthy monkeys!" His violet orbs gleamed with pure hatred, the ground tremoring while the orb continued to grow in power.
"So what do you say monkeys? Care to entertain me one last time?!"
Exchanging looks, Gohan's mouth dropped as he saw Bra glare at Cell, extend her hands outwards and cup them together.
This was it. If they fail to counter Cell's attack…well, it will be over for good. There will be no more second chances since there'd be no more Dragon Balls and the only means of escape was Trunks's Time Machine, but the machine could support just one person and it was also way too far to reach before the planet meets its end. Anyways it doesn't matter; the Saiyan Princess wasn't going to run…not again…
Not ever…
"Come on Gohan…" Bra gritted her teeth as sparkling green energy ki developed within her pale palms. "Let's show him what Saiyans are truly made of!"
"But one of my arms are broken-"
"Your other arm works right?
"Yea-"
"So use it!"
"But-"
"Gohan!"
"TAKE THE STUPID PLANET WITH YOU MONKEYS, KAMEHAMEHAAAA!" Cell's eyes widened as he threw his hands forth, freeing a massive Kameha-wave that eclipsed the rising sun.
"FINAALLL SHINNNEEEE-" Pausing briefly, Bra slid her feet apart, brought her hands to the side of her hip and thrust them out, screaming-
"KAMEHAMEHHHAAAA!"
Bra's energy wave exploded from her hands, a trail of bluish-green light tearing up into the sky.
Seeing no way around it, Gohan flung his hand back and threw it forwards, yelling-
"KAMEHAMEHHHAAAA!"
And the beam struggle began, their attacks fusing into one, the two half Saiyans grunting, their feet sinking into the ground as Cell's own blast finally collided with theirs, causing the earth to quake fiercely, creating hundreds of fissures that stretched on for miles.
Creasing her brows in concentration, Bra's crimson boots dug further into the earth soil, the half Saiyan making use of her heels to prevent herself from skidding and losing her grip. Her hands and arms became jittery, wobbling about like jello whilst every muscle in her tone slender body contracted, becoming as hard as steel.
Despite his current state, Gohan was managing rather well, his right hand pumping waves after waves of energy while his left arm swung to and fro akin to swings. Tears were weeping from his lower eyelids, the vicious turbulence causing his orbs to sting so much, that the temptation to extinguish his attack was sounding more and more appealing with each second that passed.
"Impressive, you're both actually holding your own!" Cell praised, his violet orbs shining with exhilaration. "BUT THAT ENDS NNNOOOOWWW!"
The Bio-Android's arms recoiled as he increased the power and potency of his Kameha-wave, the additional energy making it thicker, wider and overall more intimidating than before.
Two sets of turquoise orbs enlarged with horror as they watched the Android's blast tip the scale to his favor, the attack devouring theirs at a rapid pace. The two half Saiyan's became winded, the terrain gulping their feet as they grimaced when their body grew denser due to the added pressure of the attack.
Shaking the momentary feeling of dread, the Saiyan Princess roared-
"NO IT DOESN'T!"
Bra almost lost her balance as a huge amount of energy burst from her palms, halting Cell's blast before it could consume them along with the planet. Seconds later she cursed, her features screwing up upon seeing that the stalemate was short-lived; the energy wave had resumed its course towards them.
Right as fear began to wrap itself around her yet again, she heard Gohan scream loudly. She sighed in relief as she saw their combined energy ricochet back towards Cell. Thank Kami…
Cell had no trouble stopping the blast in its path towards him, but to his annoyance, they were once again back at the start; dead even.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxTHE-CELL-GAMESxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
"It's crazy just how much stronger Cell is!" Yamcha said, raising his arms to block the wicked wind from his face.
"Yeah, but he's nowhere near as powerful as the other Cell was." Trunks said with a scowl, holding onto Videl in one arm while Erasa was in the other. But that wasn't what had the lavender haired Saiyan vexed. No, it was the blond haired boy, Sharpner, as he had his arms wraps around his neck in a death grip.
Videl blinked, the moister in her eyes washing the caked dirt out as she locked her sights on the vial, which was wedged against a large cliff. From the looks of it, the fierce wind must have had enough force to press the button on the vial that would eject the needle.
"Hey, it's the bottle that has the virus!" Videl shouted, pointing at it.
Yamcha smiled as an idea popped into his head. "Guys, all we need to do is go get it, sneak up on Cell and inject him!"
Trunks shook his head. "No, that's not going to work! He'll sense us before we can give him the shot!"
"Damn it, you're right!" Yamcha cursed.
The Prince then solved their problem.
"Wait…the Android!"
All eyes slowly turned to Eighteen.
"What?!"
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxTHE-CELL-GAMESxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
"Ouch! Watch it; my shoulders are very sensitive ya know!"
"Sorry King Kai, It's just that this whole thing has got me stressed out!"
"Humph, you ought to be grateful Tien! I could have been mowing my lawn or watering my flowers or perhaps take a nice and relaxing ride in my shiny red car!" the Kai said, his antennas sparking every time that Bra, Gohan, and Cell's ki went haywire.
Tien snorted. "Yeah, yeah, you could do that later!"
All of a sudden King Kai's antennas stood upright, his heightened sense picking up three familiar ki signatures which materialized from thin air.
The Kai pouted, not bothering to turn to the newcomers.
"Hey King Kai…" Goku said somberly, heading towards him.
Spotting the triclops Krillin grinned, walking to him.
"Good to see you Tien!" the former monk exclaimed.
"Likewise."
"Tien, how's the battle? Is the planet still intact?" Piccolo asked, cutting straight to the chase.
"See for yourself." he replied, moving aside to make room for the Namekian.
As he placed his green hand onto the Kai's right shoulder, Piccolo and Tien grumbled when the full Saiyan rudely squeezed himself between them.
"This is it you guys. It's all or nothing."
"Its mind boggling!" Piccolo commented, astounded at the display of power.
"Oh no, Gohan! One of his arms is broken!" Goku said with alarm, his sights zeroed in on his son's limp left arm.
"And look, Bra has ascended!" the Namek pointed out, choosing not to worry about his former student's injury. Besides, the kid's tough…
Goku smiled, feeling proud of his Saiyan Princess.
"Hey! Let me see!" Krillin complained, trying to jump in. His head drooped in defeat as neither of his friends was willing to move so that he could get a turn to watch the battle.
"There's something you should know Goku." Tien began. "When she first ascended, she looked a little different. Like her hair was blue instead of gold. It was very strange...do you have any idea what it means?"
Goku cocked his head, not knowing what to make of that. "Blue hair huh…"
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxTHE-CELL-GAMESxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Their arms beginning to feel numb, the two half Saiyans bit back a moan as the scorching heat which radiated from the gigantic energy waves charred their skin, causing angry red welts to develop on their hands. The merciless wind pelted against their faces, their legs shivering like a leaf as the Bio-Android's blast was gradually overwhelming theirs.
"Br-Bra…I don't think I can keep this up!" Gohan cried doubtfully, the rate in which his right arm trembled increasing by the second.
"Yes y-you can Gohan! We can beat him together!" Bra encouraged, her boots sinking into the earth so deep, that the soil nearly touched her shins. "You just have to BELIEVVEE!"
Like a python revolver firing off a silver bullet, the Saiyan Princess recoiled, her feet staying firm as their attack doubled in size, putting them back on the path to victory. She smirked when she heard Goku's son scream angrily, forcefully doubling their attack's mass again, making it four times greater than it once was.
"You two are quite persistent aren't you? Well guess what?"
Just as their blast began to swallow his, Cell crushed their hopes by pouring five times as much energy into his, sending their attack rocketing back without difficulty.
The miserable look on their features made him laugh. "You can't win! You can't beat perfection!"
Still fueled by adrenaline, the half Saiyan duo roared, their arms jerking back harshly as their energy attack gained enough power to match Cell's, bring it back to the center.
Bra was mere seconds away from announcing that they were going to die when a familiar voice barged into her mind.
Bra…we have a plan!
Okay, I'd really like to hear it bro, cause I was this close to throwing in the towel
Uhhh I can't see how close you-
Trunks!
Okay okay! Listen, the vial that Gohan dropped is not too far from us! So we were trying to figure out who-
Shit Trunks, I can't focus-short and sweet!
Okay sorry! Eighteen, she doesn't have a ki signature! So-
Eighteen will go inject his ass while we are distracting him! That's all you needed to say!
But we also-
I don't give a damn how you do it Trunks, just do it! Shit, this hurts so bad I wanna cry! Please hurry!
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxTHE-CELL-GAMESxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Cutting off their mental connection, Trunks couldn't help but cringe as his sister's swearing marathon, which possibly consisted of every swear known; she even created new ones. F - me with a spoon twice daily? Where did she- and why?!
Dismissing these thoughts, Trunks gave Eighteen a thumbs up. Just as she was about to take off, Vegeta's voice halted her.
"Do you really think Cell isn't aware?"
Eighteen furrowed a brow. "Ummm I'm sure he's distracted enough."
"Let's not take that chance. I'll go and provide more distraction while you grab the virus."
"Father no! You're still out of power! You'll just get hurt or worse!" Trunks stated, worriedly.
With a flex of his muscles, he transformed into a Super Saiyan, proving his son wrong. "I've gotten some of it back." He turned to the brunette. "Go!"
Nodding, Eighteen ran as fast and sneakily as she could towards the cliff while the Prince rushed into danger to provide the distraction.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxTHE-CELL-GAMESxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
From his peripheral vision, Cell instantly sighted Vegeta, who had his body and hands angled in the position to fire a blast that he hasn't used in quite a while.
"Galick Gun!" Vegeta boomed, throwing his hands out, letting loose a large purple energy blast.
Growling with annoyance, Cell flared out his aura, effectively overwhelming the Prince, blowing him away as well as his attack. But Vegeta being…well Vegeta, he was back within moments, firing off hundreds of yellow ki balls, which only further aggravated him with each time that it touched his perfect body.
Meanwhile, Eighteen had already reached the cliff, climbed it and yanked out the vial. Rapidly ascertaining the best course of action, she looked for the best route and strategy to sneak up on Cell; she did a mad dash towards a tall mountain, which happened to be directly behind the Android,and went around it.
"Just like a damned roach, you won't stay DEAD!"
Turning his head faster than the eye could see, Cell's orbs lit up, firing off laser beams. Vegeta cried out in pain, the Android's attack having connected flawlessly against his chest, burning through his amour and burning his skin. Flickering back to his base form while he plummeted downwards, he smirked, knowing that he had completed his part.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxTHE-CELL-GAMESxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Having witnessed her father fall and crash to the ground in a useless heap, she called out for him, hoping that he was still alive. Unfortunately, her brief moment of weakness was Cell's opportunity to push through her defenses; shit hit the fan.
"Say goodbye!"
Gohan and Bra were horrified when with one mighty thrust, Cell amplified his Kameha-Wave by six times, causing the blast to rocket towards the two half Saiyans at such an incredible velocity, that even when they had managed to prevent it from touching them, there were still consequences.
Bra felt sick, the darkest of fears consuming her when hearing Gohan cry out, his voice becoming fainter and fainter as he was carried away by the wild gust of wind.
"No! Goha-ughahh!"
Bra screamed in pain, the strain on her body now intensified without Gohan to distribute the weight and power of the blast, her hands feeling more like sand than before, her heart pounding against her chest faster than it ought of which increased her panic.
"Kami no! It can't end like this!"
Cell grinned. "Too bad!" looking at her panic-stricken face with joy, he added. "Tell Goku I said-Ughahh! What the hell?!"
Cell groaned, suddenly feeling dizzy, weak and shaky, his sights blurring as the left side of his neck stung.
"It's a prescription from our doctor, bastard. Go to hell." Eighteen whispered into his ears heatedly, pulling out the empty vial.
Feeling unadulterated rage, which happened to snap him out of his dazed state, Cell ignited his aura, the force sending the brunette miles away.
"What have you done to me?!" The Bio-Android bellowed, biting back a groan. He felt like something was eating away at his insides!
"It's poison, a virus! You can thank Dr. Gero for that! He created it in case you were to rebel against him!" Bra answered, smirking. Thanks to the virus, she was able to push her attack back up, nearly centering it.
Cell froze, dread racing through his body as it dawned on to him that he had screwed up again. He had the Dragon Balls! He wished for perfection! And he could have then wished for immortally! But he hadn't! It appeared that his hate for Goku had clouded his mind and caused him to waste a wish! He could have just saved that wish for last and if the bitch had sent away the dragon, it wouldn't have mattered. He could have just killed Goku, destroy the earth and then destroy Namek. That would have gotten rid of Goku along with his pesky friends…for good.
After all that work! No! I won't allow this!
Cell then lost it.
"You seriously think you all have won?!" With eyes full of madness, Cell thickened his muscles, mimicking the Super Saiyan Grade 3 form, except he still had Super Saiyan 2 traits. "IF I'M GOING TO DIE, I'LL BE DAMNED IF I DON'T TAKE ALL OF YOU WITH ME!"
His insanity grew as he flexed his arms, swelling his attack tenfold, slowly overwhelming Bra's 'puny' attack.
Staring at death's doors, the Saiyan Princess' glimmer of hope died.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxTHE-CELL-GAMESxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
"No-no-no-nooo! Kami No!"
Not wanting to watch, Goku ripped his hand from King Kai's back, finally making room for Krillin.
Through he was facing the other way, the Kai gave a sympathetic smile. "I'm sorry Goku…"
Pacing back and forth like a mad person, Goku's mind started to race. "I have to go down there and save them!"
"I'm sorry Goku, you can't."
"But I could use Instant Transmission! He's off guard and dying! I'm healed, so all I need to-"
Cutting off the connection to get Piccolo, Tien, and Krillin off his back, he turned. "You can't! You're dead! Besides, even if you did, it wouldn't work."
"Let's find out!" he said, placing two fingers to his forehead.
"No don't Goku!" King Kai pleaded.
To his astonishment, Goku actually disappeared…but then he returned.
He tried again, but failed.
And again
And again
And again
Piccolo looked away, not wanting to see Goku's ridiculous behavior while Tien and Krillin stared at the ground, gloomily.
King Kai shook his head, hating to see Goku like this. "Stop Goku, there is no-"
"No!"
"But you tried-"
"NO! HELL NO!" Goku snapped, blazing into Super Saiyan.
The other flinched, taken aback at the full Saiyan's outburst.
Giving all four of his friend's the nastiest glare they have ever seen on his face, Goku continued to try to use Instant Transmission.
Krillin spoke, trying to calm his friend down. "Hey, Goku buddy…chill out…it's gonna be okay right? I mean we're all gonna see everyone…your son…Bra…"
Apparently, that wasn't the right thing to say because with a grunt, he ascended into his second stage.
"Shut up! You don't understand how this feels!" This earned the Saiyan a look, so he had to reword what he said. "Well I know you've all got loved ones too, but I'm not going to just accept this! So what? We're all gonna stay dead and 'live' happily ever after?!"
"So what do you suppose we do Goku? We're dead and from the looks of it, the others will be here soon…" Piccolo's eyes grew. "Wait! What about the Namek Dragon Balls? King Kai, get us-"
"Not going to happen Piccolo. The Namekians have already used all their wishes recently, so we'd have to wait a year before we can use them." Tien said.
Krillin tilted his head. "How do you know?
"Well, before the Cell Games started, I got the idea to ask the Namekians to revive me. They said they would, but I'd have to wait for a year because they had already used the wishes for something."
"What were the wishes?"
"Something about getting rid of a Big Gete Star…I'm not sure what that is. I asked them if they could explain but they said they didn't want to talk about it." Tien replied. "Anyways, the year wait won't do us any good if Cell somehow overcomes the effects of the virus and goes to Namek and destroys the planet."
While the others have drifted off into small talk, as they had nothing better to do, Goku kept on trying to teleport to Earth, but to no avail. He tried to lock on every one of his friends, his son included, but it was useless. However, things were different with Bra. It was strange…every time he locked onto her, he felt this odd pull against his heart; sometimes the tug would bring about pain, while other times it'd bring warmth and comfort, making him feel at ease.
Suddenly a pair of dazzling aquarium spheres came to mind, followed by a pair of soft lips. His heart thumped faster as the plump flesh was pressed against his skin, leaving behind a chaste kiss that made him yearn for more. Long smooth pale arms drew him in, the thin hands leaving feather-like touches here and there, making him lightheaded. Sea-green hair splashed against his face like curtains, wafting the scent of cherry blossom into his nostril, intoxicating and blessing him with the most highest and purest of emotions-
Love…
Smiling, she winked, blew him a kiss and then departed.
Bra…back then when I told you that I love you, I said that I hadn't understood why I did. I told you that I just knew that you are it, that you are the one. So why is it that I can't describe it? Maybe…maybe I'm just overthinking it...wait! We are connected somehow…our souls? That's it right? Our souls are synced, now one in the same. Then that means… we're soulmates! Also since we have identical souls, I'm sort of still alive! If I think hard enough, I can 'see' her…
Her heart-shaped face flashed before his eyes, giving him the cutest of smiles, the ones that he knew were only reserved for him. Depending on her mood, a few genuine laughs or giggles might escape from her lips, which were a rare thing to see indeed. He loved the way she pouted when she wasn't able to get something she wanted. He loved seeing her ocean green hair splay into the air, caressing the wind, whether in the heat of battle or passion it didn't matter. Her eyes, right behind her scent, were one of his most favorite features of her. So large and wide and full of emotion, he couldn't help but sink into those aqua pools, drowning himself with the love they held-
Th-that's not very nice Goku…
Goku froze.
Y-you could have told me th-that when you were alive…
He frowned.
And now I'm going to di-die…we all are going to die…
He became angry.
I know I'll get to see y-you again, but I-I'll always feel and see myself as a failure…
His body started to shake and tremble, rage and determination flooding every fiber of his being as he continued to perform the Instant Transmission. He hadn't stopped since he started, much to King Kai's dismay.
I failed my timeline and now I've failed-
"No you haven't Bra!" Goku snarled both mentally and vocally as a column of sea-green light surrounded his body. The cry had startled all those on King Kai's planet.
Tien's mouth rounded. "Guys…are you seeing this?!"
The others nodded, completely captivated by the full Saiyan imposing appearance. Standing tall, Goku was graced with striking light blue spiked hair and a sea-green aura that resembled the Saiyan Princess's hair so well, that they briefly thought that she was actually present.
"Holy cow! Is this the blue hair thing you were talking about Tien?!" Krillin exclaimed.
"It's strange how his ki feels like Bra's!" Piccolo added, observingly.
"Okay, let's try this again!" His turquoise eyes narrowing with resolve, he placed two fingers on his forehead and performed the Instant Transmission technique again…only to appear right back where he started. Yelling with fury, he raised his power, nearly knocking everyone off the tiny planet.
Goku disappeared and though he still returned back to the same spot, his body looked transparent, ghost-like.
Come on Bra! Don't give up!
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxTHE-CELL-GAMESxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx
Watching as the monstrous Kameha-Wave closing in on her with every second that passed, Bra relaxed her body, not wanting to fight anymore.
She was spent.
She had nothing left to give, so she lowered her eyes, accepted defe-
NO DON'T DO IT! DON'T GIVE UP!
Bra's eyes just about popped out of their sockets when a sudden electrifying surge of power rushed inside her body, giving her the strength to halt the blast moments before it could collide with her, taking her life and the planets as well. Holy shit! I feel totally juiced! Wait…Goku? Was that you?!
Oh wow! You can hear me!?
Yeah…and also I can feel your ki! Where are you? Are you here?!
No, still dead he said, his tone sounding upset. But you said you got your energy back right?
Bra nodded, which Goku could strangely see… in fact he can see more than that. His eyes lit up in realization.
Kami, Bra! I can see through your eyes!
And your power! It feels like your sharing your ki with me! It's almost as if-
We are one! they both said simultaneously.
They both smirked.
Let's finished him!
Giving out a thunderous cry, Bra's hair changed into blue, the beautiful colors of her lover's gi enveloping her into a roaring tornado. With his power embracing her, making her feel warm and cozy inside, Bra grinned as she poured a good portion of Goku's energy into her Final Shining Kameha-Wave, successfully propelling her attack towards Cell.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" Cell yelled, clearly astonished. "This is impossible! I was winning! You had no power left-ugh!"
Cell quavered, bile rising from his throat as the virus relentlessly devoured his body. His huge frame shrunk, his power steadily slipping from his grasp, making him shake with pure fear. Forcing the attack to stop pass the mid-way point, the Bio-Android jello hands began to decay.
"NOOOOO! I CAN'T LOSE!"
"Oh that's too bad!" Bra goaded, her orbs filled with laughter. "I hope you rot in hell bastard!"
"YOU BITCH! YOU'LL PAY FOR THIS! I SWEAR IT!"
DO IT NOW BRA! Goku commanded.
"RRRUUUUAHHHHHHHHH!"
With a mighty war cry, Bra released all her and Goku's fury at Cell, the kickback of her blast almost blowing her off her feet. The attack slammed into the Bio-Android with earthshattering force, swallowing him whole.
"NO! I CAN'T DIE! I AM-" Cell cried out in pain, his body thinning, burning and breaking apart.
"PERFEEEECTIONNNNN!"
Witnessing Cell disintegrate with a weary smile, Bra swayed to and fro until she fell backwards, landing flat on her back and returning to her base form.
Perfect my ass…
A/N: And that's it! What did you all think? I really liked how it turned out.
Anyways, the next chapter is the last for the Cell saga and it's like SUPER long *pause* because I wanted to bring closure to everything...well at least I tried to. Unfortunately, because of the length of the chapter, it's going to take me a while to get it ready to post as it's very messy. So I am going to try to post it before the end of the year.
Thanks for reading guys!
Later!
