Disclaimer: I do not own DBZ or any of the DBZ characters etc. What I do own is my own original characters storyline etc. you guys know the deal.
Chapter 17: The Road to Completion
"Do you think that Vegeta can handle Cell all by himself? I mean come on Goku can't even beat him!" Bulma said concerned.
"I have no idea how strong Vegeta and your son from the future have become but we have to put faith in them that they will stop them…at least until Goku and Gohan finish their training." Piccolo said to her with a serious tone.
"Yeah mom I am sure dad can beat him! I mean he definitely changed I could tell when he came out of the chamber with me dad can do it!" Trunks said to her.
Bulma looked down at her young son and gave him a small smile.
Man this is nuts, Vegeta and his damn pride…if he just waited for Goku and Gohan I am sure they would be able to beat him but nooooo he has to go off and be a jerk that is so like him! She thought to herself.
"So how long are Gohan and his father going to be in the chamber again?" Videl said getting frustrated with their conversation.
"One whole day Videl but really for them it's going to be a year!" Reilena said running up to her.
"Actually we don't know how long they are going to be….the most they can stay in there at a time is 24 hours…but they will be in there as long as they seem fit…they won't come out until they have ascended." Piccolo said to her.
"Ascended….what you are talking about...your dad mentioned something about that." Videl said confused.
"Dad and Gohan are going to train to a level beyond Super Saiyjin just like Vegeta and Trunks from the Future it is going to be so awesome I wish I could transform into a Super Saiyjin…" Reilena said disappointed.
"What….a level beyond Super Saiyjin? There is a level of transformation beyond what they can do…this is too much….what have I gotten myself into?" Videl said shocked.
"Well we don't know for sure…we are assuming that Vegeta and Trunks made it to that level…Vegeta and his pride wouldn't allow for us to know…man he hasn't changed a bit since the day he arrived here…" Tien said frustrated.
"Tien Vegeta is one of the strongest players we got right now…we can't afford not to trust him, as much of an arrogant person he may be…we have to trust him." Piccolo said to Tien.
"Yeah Tien my Vegeta delivers you'll see!" Bulma said confidently.
Videl just stared at them blankly as they continued with their conversation.
"This is really too much…what kind of people are they…I guess I will just have to see it for myself when they come out." Videl said as she leaned against a pillar near the door.
"All we can do now is hope that between now and when Goku and Gohan finish their training that Cell doesn't absorb the other android…because if he does then…it's over." Piccolo said to them.
"Don't worry my dad will beat him so we won't have to worry about that." Trunks said confidently.
"But Trunks even my dad and Gohan couldn't beat Cell before he absorbed the androids." Reilena said to him.
"So that doesn't mean anything my dad is way stronger than your dad and brother right now!" Trunks said to her getting angry.
"Nuh uh." Reilena said sticking her tongue out.
"Uh huh!" Trunks yelled back at her as they continued to argue.
"Ok, ok, OK YOU TWO STOP THIS RIGHT NOW!" Bulma yelled separating the two.
"You two apologize to each other, this is no time for silly arguing!" she continued.
Trunks and Reilena stared at each other and reluctantly conceded "Sorry." They both said simultaneously.
"That's more like it!" Bulma said with a smile.
"Grr I can't just stand around here and wait for Goku and Gohan to come out of the hyperbolic time chamber I need to do something now Vegeta and Trunks are going to need our help!" Tien said getting aggravated.
"Tien, come on now you know you're no match for Cell all you have to do is wait this one battle out, and if Vegeta and my son from the future can't beat him then I am sure that Goku and Gohan can! Goku has never let us down before right, so what makes this time so much different?" Bulma said with a smirk.
"Bulma this is way different then any battle we have ever fought it's not like we can just kick and punch our way through this one!" Tien yelled back at her.
"Oh really is that so? Well if I remember correctly you guys said the same thing when we were on Namek fighting Freeza, and when the Saiyjin's arrived, and when Piccolo here attacked at the 23rd world tournament, oh and did you forget King Piccolo? Goku defeated all of them!" Bulma said matter-of-factly.
"Yes that may be so but if Cell absorbs the other android we're toast. So all we can do is sit here and wait." Piccolo said to them looking at the time chamber door.
What, they all fought King Piccolo? But he tried to take over the world…almost twenty years ago these guys were only teenagers…no way how could they have…Gohan's father was the one who defeated him? Well my history teacher did say that they all think that some kid defeated him but it was just a myth…or was it…this is getting way too weird even by my standards. Videl thought to her self with a look of shock on her face.
Reilena looked over at Videl who was still in a state of disbelief.
"Videl what's wrong, you look like you were just hit by a train or something." She said to her slightly confused.
"Your dad…he…HE defeated King Piccolo? Bulma you never told me that…but how he couldn't have been any older than 15 if he did?" Videl said to them.
"Yup Goku defeated King Piccolo alright, Tien here saw the whole thing and I am sure you remember right Piccolo, but that's our little secret ok?" Bulma said to her winking.
Videl slowly nodded her head then realized something "wait a minuet…Piccolo…King Piccolo…wait are YOU King Piccolo?"
Piccolo gave her a glance with his eyes then went back to concentrating on tracking Vegeta and Future Trunks.
"Nah, Piccolo is just the reincarnation of him but don't worry Piccolo is good now, he even trained my brother when he was a kid in the woods for a whole year!" Reilena said proudly.
"Yeah he's on our side now, just like my dad is even though he tried to destroy the earth too when he first arrived here!" Trunks chimed in.
"Re…incarnation…what…." Videl said still shocked.
"Don't worry about it kid, Gohan will tell you when this whole 'crisis' passes I am sure of it!" Bulma said to her with a smile.
Videl slowly nodded her head as she positioned herself on the floor and began to go into deep thought.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Alright son, here we are the hyperbolic time chamber….isn't this exciting?!?" Goku said in excitement.
Gohan looked around at the housing area and shrugged his shoulders "well I guess so sure dad its cool."
"It's so hot and heavy in here…weird." Gohan said in observation.
"Yup, it's just you and me now Gohan for the next year so get used to this, we don't really have a choice. So do you think you are ready to train in here?" Goku said to him.
"Yeah dad I definitely am, the Earth is counting on us!" Gohan said to him.
"Good, now son I have a question for you…" Goku began.
"Uh sure dad shoot." Gohan said back to him.
Goku smirked "what's the deal with you and Videl again…is she your giiiiiirlfriend? Come on you can tell me I won't say anything to your mother."
"WHAT no dad she isn't my girlfriend! She is just my FRIEND from school who happened to take an uh…interest in my home life….I think she is just trying to dig up more blackmail to use against me really." Gohan said back to him.
"Right….so tell me do you like her….honestly Gohan…" Goku said to him with a stern look.
"What….dad what are you talking about….I….well….she is a nice girl even though she can be even pushier than mom…it's just you know…." Gohan said stuttering.
Goku smiled at his son "well I take that as a yes! Don't worry Gohan I am sure that she likes you back too, I can tell I have an ear for these things!"
"What really dad you think so?" Gohan said blushing.
"Yup definitely! Videl is one special girl I wouldn't let her get away." Goku said winking at his son as he led him through the chamber.
"So which bed do I get?" Gohan asked confused.
"Uh, well I guess you can have the one on the right and I'll take this one, since it's the same one that I used when I came in here as a kid." Goku said flopping down on it.
"Right, so what else is there in this place?" Gohan asked him.
"Ah, let e give you the grand tour! To your left you have the bathroom fully equip with a shower and toilet to your right you have the most important room of all….the kitchen! In here there is enough food to last us for a whole year!" Goku explained to his son as they kept walking.
"Right dad, with the way you eat it might last us a month." Gohan said laughing.
"Ha, ha yeah well I'll make sure that we don't starve!" Goku said laughing.
All of a sudden they came upon where the training grounds began.
"What, there…is nothing…how is this possible? How can this room be floating out here in the middle of nowhere?" Gohan said in shock.
"See what I mean; now you know why I couldn't last more than a month in here when I was a kid training with Kami and Mr. Popo. This place stretches for an eternity it can be quite overwhelming at times." Goku said to him with a soft smile.
"I see this…" Gohan said still in amazement.
"Listen, the temperature can change from hot to cold drastically and the air gets denser the deeper you go and the gravity is ten times the earths normal gravity so I think maybe until we both get used to this new environment we stick close together so we don't get lost." Goku suggested.
"Yeah, good idea dad." Gohan said in agreement as they walked toward the training grounds.
"Listen we didn't come here for a vacation, we came here to train! But I want you to know before we start that I am a much harder trainer than Piccolo…even though we trained together preparing for the androids, Piccolo was still your master but now it's just you and me son so no slacking!" Goku said to him.
"Right don't worry da…" Gohan began but was cut off as he stepped out onto the grounds and went crashing down to the ground.
"Oops sorry forgot to tell you that the first step out here is a dozy but don't worry you will get used to this kind of gravity pretty quickly…it's only here to help you….and don't try to transform, you should learn how to deal with this kind of gravity in your natural state." Goku said reassuringly.
"Right…thanks….for…the…warning…" Gohan said as he struggled to get up.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cell was just about ready to blast the island that androids 16 and 18 were hiding on when all of a sudden Vegeta appeared out of nowhere.
"Vegeta…" Cell said shocked.
"Yes…and you're Cell…hello." Vegeta said with a smirk.
"So tell me Vegeta….why are you here? Are you trying to protect the androids from their destiny?" Cell said with a laugh.
"That's not why I'm here…I've come to tell you, you're time is up." Vegeta said confidently.
"Really, are you sure about that Vegeta, I've been through some changes as of late…incase you couldn't tell." Cell said with a smirk.
"Oh really…well I have some news for you android…so have I…" Vegeta smirked.
All of a sudden Cell's attention was distracted from Vegeta and focused on Future Trunks who stopped himself behind his father.
"I hope this isn't a privet party…" Future Trunks said in an almost whisper.
"I see you have been through some changes as well Trunks…so I guess it's safe to say we are making this a family affair." Cell said to Future Trunks.
"He is only here to watch the fight…I don't need reinforcements I can take you on myself." Vegeta said to him.
"That's really not going to be much of a challenge…" Cell said skeptical of Vegeta's power.
"So…Cell…are you ready now….to witness a power not seen for thousands of years?" Vegeta said with a smirk.
Before Cell could respond Vegeta began to power up…to the amazement of Cell. Before he knew it Vegeta had transformed into his ascended Super Saiyjin form.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Whoa…is that…." Tien began as he sensed the battle below on earth.
"It's my dad he is powering up, he did it he ascended, he ascended alright dad!" Trunks said excitingly as he sensed everything that was going on.
"Wow your dad got real strong Trunks he's stronger than my dad and Gohan…" Reilena said impressed.
"See I told you!" Trunks said sticking his tongue out at her.
"What no way really your father ascended beyond a Super Saiyjin…maybe Vegeta can beat Cell after all!" Bulma said happily.
Videl looked at them all confusingly having no idea what they were talking about.
"I really need to learn how to do that sensing thing I hate not knowing what's going on." She said as she diverted her attention to the time chamber door.
"Vegeta's power is still growing; this is amazing I have never felt power like this before!" Piccolo said in shock.
Come on Gohan hurry up and come out of there…there is so much I need to know…so much that you are going to teach me Videl thought to herself with a smirk.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vegeta looked at Cell and smirked as he completed his transformation. Cell just stood there in shock when all of a sudden Vegeta came at him full force and punched him in the gut.
"Father has him against the ropes…he's won the game…" Future Trunks said looking on.
Alright father, please just put your pride aside for once and defeat this monster…the earth is counting on you. He thought to himself.
"Alright where did you get this new strength…there is no way that you could have achieved this strength the old fashioned way." Cell said still in shock.
"I do push ups and sit ups, oh and I drink plenty of juice." Vegeta said sarcastically.
Cell began to get frustrated "listen Vegeta I came all the way from the future to absorb the androids that you destroyed in my time, now I have absorbed my android 17 and I will be damned if you kill me before I can get to 18! You must tell me right now how you got so strong, you have to be bluffing!"
"Oh I am not bluffing, here how about I prove it to you and turn my back, see now am I bluffing?" Vegeta said to him turning around.
Father stop this and finish him off it's not worth it! Future Trunks thought to himself looking on.
"You will pay for your insolence Vegeta!" Cell said as he powered up and got ready to fire off an attack.
"Hey that's my fathers Gallic Gun…no way he's not going to use father's own attack against him is he? Father I hope you know what you are doing." Future Trunks said looking on.
"Gallic Gun fire!" Cell yelled as he released his attack on Vegeta.
To Cell's surprise though he was still standing, unphased by the attack and began to attack Cell.
Alright father let's see what you can do, you've played with him long enough, you are strong but it is dangerous to let this new found strength go to your head. Future Trunks thought to himself.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Wow Vegeta's so powerful…he's even more powerful than Goku now…I don't see either of the androids down there…man that's not good that means that 18 has probably been absorbed already!" Krillin said observing from above.
"Well maybe it's all for the best anyway I don't know if I could have used this thing on her." He said looking at the remote and thinking of android 18.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I think my dad is going to do it…I think he is going to defeat Cell!" Trunks said as he sensed the battle below.
"Yeah I think he is too wow I wonder if my dad and Gohan are going to get that strong when they come out?" Reilena said intrigued.
"Piccolo what's wrong, you seem to be worried about something…at this rate I think we are winning down there." Tien said to him.
"Yeah Piccolo lighten up my dad is kicking butt down there!" Trunks said to him cockily.
"I don't want to be blunt kid but your father could have beaten Cell along time ago…he's just toying with him now." Piccolo said to Trunks.
Trunks looked at him slightly taken a back when all of a sudden Bulma came storming up to them "Hey Vegeta will do it; he will defeat Cell…he just likes to do things his own way."
"No offence Bulma but Vegeta has never been a team player…his selfish goals might ruin the one chance we have at defeating Cell I don't trust him." Tien said to her with a cold stare.
"You think I don't know that by now? I've lived with the man for the past ten years! But I think Vegeta has more brains than that…he wouldn't jeopardize the fight I say let him have his fun!" Bulma said yelling at him.
I wonder why Trunks's dad hasn't defeated Cell yet. I know he can be kind of a jerk sometimes with stuff like this but Cell might blow up the whole world before my dad and Gohan finish training! Reilena thought to herself.
"Hey Reilena come here for a minuet." Videl said to her.
Reilena turned around to see Videl standing away from the group and made her way over "yeah Videl what's up what did you need?"
"What are they talking about over there….you know with that Vegeta guy." Videl asked her.
"Oh Trunks's dad…well umm he can be kind of a jerk sometimes when he fights so I think he is playing around with Cell a little before he defeats him and Tien and Piccolo are worried that he is giving Cell a chance to escape and find the other android." Reilena explained.
"Wow, someone has a big ego…" Videl said in response.
"Yeah, that's what Bulma says all the time when I go over there to hangout with Trunks." Reilena said as she walked back to where the others were.
"Man I wish I could see what was going on down there with my dad…" Trunks said looking to the ground.
"So, why don't we go down there and see for ourselves?" Reilena said with a smirk.
"What…no way Rei we can't…I mean my moms standing right there we would get into so much trouble!" Trunks whispered to her.
"So, I think its worth it don't you? I mean besides we will be fine you are a Super Saiyjin after all and your dad knows so you don't have to worry about hiding it." she said trying to convince him.
Trunks looked at her with a serious look then sighed "fine, you win but how do we go about leaving the look out…if my mom doesn't see us I am sure that Piccolo will catch on at some point."
"Just leave everything to me…just follow my lead." Reilena said as she walked away with Trunks in tow.
"Hey guys I think I am going to go back to the Kame House now and see how my mom is doing…Trunks said that he was going to come with see yah!" she said as she took off flying down the lookout with Trunks behind her.
"What…no Trunks you come back here right now it's not safe!" Bulma yelled running after them.
"No wait you two stop!" Piccolo yelled but it was too late they were already gone.
"Ok, that was a lie if I ever saw one." Videl said as she looked down the lookout from the edge.
"They aren't going back to the Kame House they are going the opposite way." Piccolo said with his head down.
"WHAT?!?! You don't think they are going to where Vegeta and my other son are, do you?" Bulma said worried.
Piccolo just nodded his head slowly.
"No, Trunks and Reilena are going to get themselves killed why don't you go after them!" Bulma yelled.
"It won't do any use even if we do catch up to them they will just escape…they are much more powerful than they look." Piccolo said to her.
"Yeah Trunks is a Super Saiyjin there is no competing with that." Tien said to them.
"What…what did you just say Tien…did you just say that MY son is a Super Saiyjin?" Bulma said in shock.
Piccolo looked over at her with a serious look "yes Bulma Trunks can become a Super Saiyjin."
All of a sudden Bulma's face went from shock to anger "great, now Vegeta is going to want to turn him into a heartless warrior! This is the last thing I need right now! How the hell am I going to be able to punish a kid who has the power to blow up small planets?"
Videl came up to her and put her hand on her shoulder "don't worry Bulma I am sure they are going to be fine, they are smart kids I am sure that if it gets too dangerous they will leave."
Bulma turned to face her and gave her a sigh "yeah, well you don't know how they get when they are together."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Wow Rei that actually worked." Trunks said impressed as they flew.
"Yeah I know I can't believe none of them stopped us." She said in response.
"Oh well come on we aren't too far from where my dad is." He said as they speed up.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vegeta landed on a rock as Cell fell to the ground for the umpteenth time.
"So had enough yet…well let me introduce you to someone who is also like me, my son Trunks…he too is a true Super Saiyjin. He is not quite as strong as I am but I think it would be pretty hard to tell the difference between us he has incredible power." Vegeta said pointing to Future Trunks.
Where are you going with this father? Future Trunks thought to himself.
"No…impossible how can this be I killed you in the future!" Cell yelled in frustration.
"Face it Cell you took a gamble and you lost." Vegeta said with a smirk.
Reilena and Trunks landed and hid behind a rock near by.
"Hey look there's your dad!" Reilena whispered to her.
"Yeah and there's Cell I wonder what they are talking about?" Trunks pondered.
Cell growled in frustration but then started to laugh evilly.
"Vegeta allow me to make you a proposition…you truly are superior to me in every way…but if you let me absorb android 18 and become perfect…I am sure you would love the challenge of fighting me at my full power." Cell said to him.
Vegeta looked at Cell contemplating his offer when he all of a sudden sensed Reilena and Trunks near by great the brats left the lookout and made their way here…well I guess I can show them what a true warrior is.
No father please you can't…all this work would have been done for nothing! He is just toying with your pride! We have come too far…I have come too far for this to end like this! I can't let mom and Reilena down finish him off now! Future Trunks thought angrily.
All of a sudden Future Trunks looked over to see himself and Reilena over behind a rock.
Oh no why are they here? Future Trunks thought to himself as he floated down towards them.
"Why are you two here don't you know it's dangerous?" Future Trunks said to them.
"Well we got tired of waiting around and sensing what was going on at the lookout so we came here." Reilena said proudly.
"Well if I were you I would leave now…things aren't going to get pretty." Future Trunks said.
"Come on Vegeta…you are a fool who doesn't know what real power is…at least let me have the opportunity to show you." Cell said with a smirk.
"Me…a fool who doesn't know what real power is…well I beg to differ." Vegeta said to him.
"Well then Vegeta…why don't you take my offer and prove it." He said to him.
"You don't think my…I mean our dad is actually going to let Cell become complete do you?" Trunks said looking up at his future self.
Future Trunks looked down at him "I don't know…at this point your guess is as good as mine kid."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Man, Cell is just dying to find 18…he is trying to trick Vegeta into letting him go find her! Somehow I have got to find her first…and use this on her…" Krillin said looking at the remote from above.
Krillin, it's all for the best man it was meant to be this way…maybe after you deactivate her you can bring her to Capsule Corp and Bulma and her father can fix her…only after Cell is defeated of course. Krillin thought to himself as he began to look for Android 18.
"Wait no; this only immobilizes her…to get her to be useless I would have to…blast her to pieces…" Krillin said nervously.
Man does anything ever go my way? Krillin thought to himself.
"Alright there is no way that she is on this island…she might be though girls are funny that way they always do what you least expect." Krillin said as he floated around looking for her.
All of a sudden Krillin noticed androids 16 and 18 hiding on the island below.
"Ah, there she is…with that other android too…at least I'm not too late." Krillin said as he floated down towards them.
Remember Krillin you have to be within ten meters of the android for it to work. Krillin remembered Bulma saying to him.
"Ok Krillin you can do this…everyone is counting on you." Krillin said as he landed on the island.
Ah ok, ok they are right there…oh man look at her she is so…so beautiful…Krillin this is insane how can you be attracted to an android? Come on Krillin get your act together! He thought to himself as he inched closer to them.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You know fighting you in this state is a joke…do you honestly think that by me allowing you to absorb the other android you will become much more powerful?" Vegeta said with a laugh.
"Yes Vegeta, it is almost certain, it would be the ultimate challenge…do you think you can handle it?" Cell said to him.
"Well, there is no doubt in my mind that I can." Vegeta responded.
"So you are willing to allow me to absorb the other android?" he said to him.
"Well, let's just say that I am thinking about it." Vegeta said with a smirk.
"Father this is ridicules I can't believe…wait yes, yes I do believe you are considering it but you can't actually go through with this!" Future Trunks said looking on.
Man mom, Rei what would you do in my situation…I can't just interrupt and tell him not to do it…as much as I would like to…that won't accomplish anything. He thought to himself.
"Come on Vegeta, wouldn't you like to test out your new power against such a superior being such as myself?" Cell said to him.
Vegeta just stood there thinking.
"Come on Vegeta all you have to do is say the word, I will go absorb her and we can resume where we left off as simple as that." Cell said trying to convince him.
"Trunks your dad can't let Cell become complete you heard what Piccolo and the others said!" Reilena said to Trunks.
Trunks slowly nodded his head as he looked on dad please don't let Cell become complete…defeat him now so we can be together again!
Future Trunks looked at the two man I can't believe he is actually doing this in front of them…in front of me doesn't he see how much his son looks up to him…how much I look up to him…
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Listen 18 I think that you better go hide now." 16 said to her.
"What do you mean I am hiding, with you." 18 responded.
"No away from here, if Vegeta let's Cell go he will surely find you here." 16 said to her.
"Do you really think Vegeta is willing to risk letting Cell go?" 18 said to him.
16 hesitated for a minuet then responded "yes, yes I do."
Alright Krillin you are almost there…just a little bit closer and you should be able to use this thing. He thought to himself.
Ok…GO. Krillin thought to himself as he inched just a little bit more closer to the androids than he was before.
Ok, I am in range…this is it all I have to do is push this button…come on Krillin all you have to do is just push it…that's it and then blast her it can't be as hard as you are making it out to be. Ok, Ok Krillin lets think this over a bit…if I don't destroy her she can be absorbed by Cell…defenseless…that's not fair to her…I can't let that happen to her…I know I'll just charge her push the button then blast her really quick so it doesn't hurt that much…can androids even feel pain? Man I really can't stop thinking about that kiss…it was just a kiss it didn't mean anything…right? Krillin you are such a hopeless romantic…SHES AN ANDROID not a real person you would never be able to get with her…but she looks so scared…maybe she is real and the android thing is a crock! Man could I really be in love with an android…an android designed to kill my best friend?!?! Listen Krillin weather you are in love or not you HAVE to push the button everyone is counting on you! No, I can't…yes you can…no…Krillin everyone is expecting you to do this…but I CAN'T!! Come on don't let your feeling's cloud you're judgment! No…I can't do it…I…love…her… He thought to himself as he dropped the remote and crushed it.
All of a sudden 16 and 18 looked over at Krillin as he destroyed the remote.
"Hey…it's you….why are you here did you come to destroy me?" 18 said in shock.
"Nice day huh, I did come here to destroy you…but you…you don't deserve it…listen you really shouldn't be here right now…if Cell finds you then we are all doomed…please go now before it's too late…there is a way to sneak over to the other side of the island just lay low you know?" Krillin said to her.
"Why are you doing this? You are taking a great risk by letting me go!" she yelled at him.
"Don't think that I don't already know that? It's because…I…you see…" he stammered.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Well now Cell you certainly have aroused my curiosity…so be it go find and absorb the other android…hopefully the next time I see you, you won't be in such a pitiful state." Vegeta said to him with a smirk.
"Oh no dad no…you can't let him! We are all counting on you!" Trunks said in horror.
"Trunks did he just say what I think he said…" Reilena said in shock.
"Father no are you insane? You can't let him absorb android 18! Please father can't you see he is tricking you, he is going for your pride that's your weak point!" Future Trunks yelled slightly regretting then end of the last statement.
"Will you shut your mouth you are worse than your mother! I never asked you for your opinion and I DON'T have a weak point! Now if I were you I would take the two brats and leave this place at once you are just a distraction!" Vegeta yelled back at him.
"Now as for you get out of her now before I change my mind!" Vegeta yelled at Cell.
"Alright, as you wish." Cell said as he floated away to look for 18.
"This better be worth it Cell…otherwise I will make sure your death will be a painful one." Vegeta said as he looked on.
All of a sudden Future Trunks appeared in Cell's way transformed.
"No way Trunks are you really going to stop him?" Reilena said looking up.
"I…don't…know…" Trunks said looking on.
"Listen Cell if my father won't stop you then I will myself!" he yelled.
"Get out of my way kid you heard what your father said I don't have time to deal with you!" Cell said to him.
"You are going to need a lot more than patients to deal with me. You heard what my father said before I am just as strong as he is." Future Trunks said to him.
"Oh yeah well we will have to see about that." Cell said as he went to punch him.
Future Trunks quickly dodged the attack and hit him back as Cell tried to get away but he just followed him.
Reilena and Trunks looked on when all of a sudden Reilena noticed Krillin and the androids over in a clearing near them.
"Hey look there's Krillin and I guess those are the androids!" Reilena said.
"Think we should go over there?" Trunks asked her.
"Yeah come on!" she said as they ran towards Krillin and the androids.
"Sorry but you aren't going anywhere without getting through me first Cell." He said to him.
"Damn kid…he's just like his father…" Vegeta said in observation.
Cell started to attack again but Future Trunks was just as easily able to block the attack.
"Listen I am not an idiot, I know you are trying to trick my father because you know that his weak point is his pride. Well guess what as long as I am here you won't get away with it!" Future Trunks said.
"Curse you…hey Vegeta I thought that we had an agreement?" Cell said looking back.
"I'm sorry but I can't control him…he is his father's son after all." Vegeta said with a smirk.
All of a sudden Cell noticed android 18 near by "Yes…there she is perfect…"
"Oh no the android she's here!" Future Trunks said as he noticed as well.
"Hey Cell knows where you are get out of here now!" he yelled at android 18 from above.
"What…" she said in shock.
"Hey Krillin what are you doing here?!?" Reilena yelled as they approached him.
"Oh man what are you two doing here it is too dangerous get out of here!" Krillin yelled at them.
"We came here to watch my dad fight Cell." Trunks said to him.
"Yeah we got bored of sitting on the lookout waiting for my dad and Gohan…hey is that one of the androids?" Reilena asked him.
"Yeah, but that's not the point I don't know what I would do if you two go hurt!" Krillin yelled at them.
"Yes, even though I can sense great power in them it is still quite dangerous…Reilena…Trunks you should leave at once with Krillin and 18." 16 said to them.
"Yeah Krillin he's right Trunks is a Super Saiyjin we will be fine!" Reilena said trying to reassure him.
"Trunk's is what…oh man, it's him!" Krillin yelled as he saw Cell approach them.
"I won't let you do it!" Future Trunks yelled as he followed him down to where 18 was.
"I see…Trunks wants to test out his power as well." Vegeta smirked as he watched them fly away.
Future Trunks began to kick punch and blast Cell to the ground as they moved.
"Listen Krillin get them out of here Cell is probably moving on ground!" he yelled.
"Come on lets go before Cell gets here!" Krillin yelled at her.
"Right…16 come on 16 lets go!" she said as she shook him.
"Listen 18 go…I am too damaged to continue on…save yourself." 16 said to her.
18 nodded her head and took off with Krillin, Reilena and Trunks in tow. All of a sudden there was a blast and low and behold there was Cell slowly approaching them.
Future Trunks was on his way over to where the others were when all of a sudden Vegeta popped up out of nowhere and hit him to the ground.
"Ah Trunks what is you're dad doing? Why did he hit you?" Reilena said in shock.
Dad what has gotten into you why are you letting Cell do this? Trunks thought to himself.
"Stupid boy you have no idea what it means to be a true warrior." Vegeta said as he focused his attention on Cell.
"Ah 18…how lovely it is to see you again…" Cell said when all of a sudden android 16 appeared in front of her and Krillin.
All of a sudden Trunks powered up to Super Saiyjin and Reilena powered up to get ready to fight as they got next to android 16.
"Man, she was right Trunks is a Super Saiyjin that's insane!" Krillin said in shock.
"We won't let you get away with this Cell you can't absorb her!" Trunks said to him.
"Yeah we won't let you destroy the whole world, you've already killed a lot of people!" Reilena yelled.
Cell just stood there and laughed "I appreciate the show kiddies but if you don't let me absorb that android I won't hesitate to kill you."
What the hell is the boy doing did I not tell him to not interfere? Vegeta thought getting angry at his present son.
Trunks and Reilena looked at each other and began to attack Cell but were both knocked out of the way and unconscious.
"Well now that those two are out of the way…" Cell said focusing his attention on android 18.
Vegeta looked down at the unconscious Reilena and Trunks, seeing that they were going to be fine he ignored them and went back to focusing on Cell and the androids.
"Well android 16 I would say that you're batteries are running low…why don't you save yourself the agony and let me through." Cell said to him.
"They…were…just…children…" 16 said to him in anger.
"Yes, annoying ones at that." Cell said to him with a smirk.
"You…will…pay Cell." 16 said to him.
"Christ would you just hurry up and absorb that blasted android I don't have all day!" Vegeta yelled from above.
"Great thanks a lot Vegeta…so much for you being on our side." Krillin said.
All of a sudden Future Trunks appeared out of nowhere and began to go after Cell again.
"Imbecile does not know when to quit?" Vegeta said as he blasted him to the ground again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Vegeta…" Piccolo said as he sensed the battle below.
"What, Piccolo what is going on down there are they ok? What about my sons?!?! Answer me Piccolo do you hear me?!?" Bulma said to him frustrated.
"VEGETA IS ALLOWING CELL TO ABSORB THE OTHER ANDROID! There are you happy now?!?" Piccolo yelled at her.
Bulma and the others were taken a back by what he had just said.
"What…no way he wouldn't do that…would he?" Bulma said in shock.
"This isn't good I knew we couldn't leave it all up to him." Tien said.
"Why…would he do that…?" Videl said thinking.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Thank you for the help Vegeta…children can be such a bother wouldn't you say?" Cell said to him.
Krillin began to attack Cell head on but to no avail, Cell quickly through him to the ground. Soon Android 16 tried to attack him but he too was thrown out of the way by Cell. After a moment of hesitation 18 began her assault on him.
All of a sudden Future Trunks emerged from the rubble below.
"You are wrong father for doing this you can't let him reach his final form! There is a good chance that he will become stronger than both of us!" Future Trunks yelled.
"But that's the thrill of fighting; don't you want to see this power he keeps going on about?" Vegeta said with a smirk.
"No, I have seen it all my life! I have lived through the horror that a force like that creates! Look at what it is doing to you! You don't even care that your son and Reilena were beat down by that monster!" Future Trunks yelled.
Vegeta snorted "they were fools for coming down here in the first place…it was their just reward."
Future Trunks gave him a cold stare "well you know what father I won't let him do this, even if it means taking you down too!" he said as he let go an attack.
"Really now, well I know for a fact that you do not have the guts to challenge your own father, emotions are what make you weak." Vegeta said to him.
All of a sudden Future Trunks let go a huge energy attack at Vegeta, who was in shock that he even had the balls to do it.
The battle between 18 and Cell waged on but no matter what 18 did she could not take him down.
As Cell began to approach her, ready to absorb her Future Trunks appeared knocking Cell down.
"Come on you have to get out of here there isn't much time!" Future Trunks said to her.
Man I never actually thought that I would be standing here saying that to her. He thought to himself.
Future Trunks continued to attack Cell head on as 18 looked on. Just as Trunks was to hit him again Vegeta came up and knocked him down.
"Your strong kid but too bad you are playing on the wrong side!" he yelled at him.
Taking the opportunity Cell quickly moved over to where 18 was.
18 looked up at him in horror "you monster!"
Cell just laughed as he got his tail ready to absorb her "Don't worry once you are apart of me 18 you won't have any fear."
18 tried desperately to attack him but it was no use as his tail attacked her and began to absorb her.
"You monster stop this!" the now conscious Krillin yelled as he went to attack him but no avail Cell was able to absorb her in quick.
Cell began to metamorphosis right in front of them all.
"No…no this can't be happening!" Future Trunks yelled from the side lines.
"Yes, the transformation has begun…now lets see if he was correct." Vegeta said with a smirk.
Reilena and Trunks both slowly started to lift their heads as they saw Cell transforming.
"Oh no I think he got her." Reilena said trying to get up.
"I know…this isn't good at all." Trunks said.
"No I can't let this happen!" Future Trunks yelled as he attacked him but it didn't help.
Before any of them knew it the transformation was complete…and there stood before them the newly complete and more powerful Cell.
A/N: Well there is chapter 17! I hope you all enjoyed it :-) so as all ways read and review and hopefully 18 will be up next week!
