[The shot opens on a slightly damaged small island, where Android #17 stands bloodied with torn clothes]
#17: I'm telling you #16, you are truly state of the art. I'll admit I was scared there for a second, but now - now I know - soon we'll have the whole world as our playground -
[From behind and under Android #17 there is a fissure in the island, which Imperfect Cell slowly hovers up and out of]
#17: Just the three of us, doing anything we want!
[Imperfect Cell is now behind Android #17, its stinger raised. Tien, in the air, panics and points]
TIEN: #17, look out! He's behind you!
[Android #17 whirls in panic. Imperfect Cell, hovering menacingly, opens the stinger of his tail which becomes a funnel]
IMPERFECT CELL: You should have listened to your friends -
[Imperfect Cell pauses, glancing up at a bright light in the sky. Android #17, #16 and #18 wince, as does Tien and Piccolo, and the light begins to dim]
[A humanoid-bipedal insect creature stands in the dissipating light. It looks not unlike Imperfect Cell, and is more female than male]
[Imperfect Cell stares, then quivers]
IMPERFECT CELL: Aah! Impossible!
[The Z Fighters, Androids and Imperfect Cell stare up at Female Cell. From below, Android #16 gapes]
#16: This cannot be.
[Imperfect Cell hisses from below, the shot focuses on just its face]
IMPERFECT CELL: I am Cell!
[Female Cell glances at Imperfect Cell]
FEMALE CELL: Although it is your nature, I must destroy you for the humans you have killed.
[Imperfect Cell grits its teeth, then laughs]
IMPERFECT CELL: Me? You are a Perfect version of me. You have absorbed Androids as I mean to!
[Female Cell is silent]
FEMALE CELL: In another timeline. Yet I have come to this world, to protect it, to prevent such a recurrence. To that end -
[Female Cell looks at Imperfect Cell]
FEMALE CELL: You must be destroyed.
[Imperfect Cell quivers with rage, yelling]
IMPERFECT CELL: You Will Not Stop Me!
[Imperfect Cell flies towards Female Cell, the shot zooming in on Female Cell whose eyes are calmly closed, with arms folded. Imperfect Cell lands a kick straight on Female Cell's face, which seems to have no impact.]
[The shot cuts to the wider shot with the Z Fighters and Androids watching Imperfect Cell's leg, frozen as Female Cell stands there unaffected. The breeze blows and the ocean settles]
[The shot cuts to Female Cell's face, mostly obscured by Imperfect Cell's foot. A mosquito flies in and lands on Female Cell's face, for a few seconds, then darts off]
[The shot cuts to Imperfect Cell, teeth grit in a smile, then the shot goes to Female Cell, whose eyes remain closed]
FEMALE CELL: Have we started?
[The shot cuts to Imperfect Cell, whose faces quivers with rage. He darts around Female Cell, delivering several punches and kicks, all of which make impact but do not faze Female Cell, who stands with eyes closed and arms folded]
[The shot cuts wide to Piccolo and Tien, and the Androids watching from below]
[The shot cuts back to Imperfect Cell, who at a last kick, backflips and teleports into the air some distance away.]
IMPERFECT CELL: Take this!
[Imperfect Cell takes a stance with his hands cupped by his side. Tien gasps]
TIEN: No!
[Android 16 raises his voice]
#16: Watch out!
[Imperfect Cell hisses in a smile.]
IMPERFECT CELL: Ka - me -
[Female Cell, with eyes closed and arms folded, is immobile. The shot goes to Cell, whose cupped hands glow with energy]
IMPERFECT CELL: Ha - me -
[Tien watches and shakes. The Androids are transfixed. Piccolo grits his teeth]
PICCOLO: He'll destroy you!
[Imperfect Cell aims his cupped hands in front of himself, teleporting in front of Female Cell]
IMPERFECT CELL: Ha!
[A bright flash illuminates then widens to cover the area. Waves become rocky and bits of the ground rise up. The Androids and Z Fighters cover their faces]
[The flash begins to die down. Imperfect Cell is heaving and grinning. The blackened silhouette of Female Cell begins to dissipate.]
[The shot focuses on Imperfect Cell, who hisses and smiles, then the shot zooms in on Imperfect Cell's face who shudders]
[The shot cuts to Female Cell, who in the reveal, is shown to be exactly as before, with closed eyes and arms folded]
IMPERFECT CELL: This - cannot be!
[The waves rock back to normal. Pieces of the ground which were hovering, settle and fall back to earth. The shot focuses on Female Cell's face]
FEMALE CELL: I am afraid you can only cost humans their lives.
[Imperfect Cell quivers as Female Cell, eyes still closed, sets her arms by her side, then raises one hand, finger outstretched. Imperfect Cell, shaking and hostile, watches as Female Cell's finger comes closer, and the fingernail touches Imperfect Cell]
[With a screech, Imperfect Cell promptly explodes, and the Z-Fighters and Androids duck for cover. The smoke clears, and Female Cell lowers its arm]
#17: That - thing!
#18: Impossible!
[Female Cell slowly descends to touch down on the island. Piccolo, Tien and the Androids stare. Female Cell opens its eyes.]
FEMALE CELL: No human should be harmed, nor any person or innocent. I am here to ensure that.
[Female Cell turns to the Androids, who freeze]
FEMALE CELL: Your programming ensures a life of destruction. If you do not now commit to cease those acts, I will destroy you.
[Android #17 takes a step back, gritting his teeth, shaking. Android #16 glances at #17.]
#16: You must listen, #17. Although I have orders, the two of you can still survive.
[#18 turns to #16.]
#18: You can't be serious! That thing is -
[#16 glances up at Female Cell]
#16: From my calculations, my power level is four hundred forty million.
[The shot cuts to a panning-up of Female Cell from the bottom up, resting on its face]
#16: And this Cell is twenty times that.
[The Z Fighters and other Androids show a great degree of shock and disbelief on their faces. Female Cell nods]
FEMALE CELL: If you would collect the Dragon Balls, a wish might be used in making the Androids forget their bestial nature.
[#17 grits his teeth]
#17: No! I won't believe it! You are just another Cell - and I will destroy you!
#18: #17, no!
[#17 powers up, then flies at Female Cell]
FEMALE CELL: So be it.
[#17 flies with a punch at the ready, and Female Cell whips out its tail, and upon impact, #17 is cut in half, and #18 gasps]
#18: No!
[#17's halves lie on the ground. Female Cell turns to #18 and #16.]
FEMALE CELL: If you persist, I have no choice.
[Piccolo clenches his fists]
PICCOLO: Why are you helping us?
[Female Cell turns to Piccolo]
FEMALE CELL: To feel powerful.
