Chapter 20 Faith in a Girl: Save the Universe Super Trance Aht?
Disclaimer: Aye yeah whatever
Hollow Bastion
Cell and Beezlemon stared in shock and confusion as the little girl floated towards them, she had changed into something far greater than a usual Trance transformation and as she moved the ground seemed to crumble and crack beneath her feet , sparks of electricity shot out from her as he now blue hair began rigid and sharp looking, her cute girly face had been replaced by a scowling face of sheer hate and anger, she didn't look like herself anymore.
"Holy shit" said Sora slowly, Aht's transformation had caused them all to fall to the ground due to the sheer force of the energy she was giving off, he was holding onto Kairi who had fallen onto him during the explosion. "Wow, I didn't know Aht had that in her" said Kairi as she stared at the little girl in shock. "Aht was hiding such immense power inside h er that she caused the entire planet to shake, now let's see what she can do with it" thought Riku as he held onto Xion.
Garnet and Zidane looked on at their friend in horror "Aht, be careful" Garnet whispered as the girl started floating closer and closer to Cell and Beezlemon. " Hey what's going on here?" said Beezlemon in confusion as Cell chuckled and grinned "Your making the same mistake Maximus made, girl. Don't think you can beat me just be powering up" as Beezlemon aimed his blaster at her "You'll excuse me if I'm not impressed princess but you happen to be in my way" he said before firing another blast at her.
She didn't block the blast or even move and it engulfed her in a massive explosion, Beezlemon laughed as the sky was lit up by the explosion, then it cleared an d he quickly yelled in shock, she was standing right in front of him. Before he could react she grabbed his gun and snapped it clean in half with a karate chop attack. She then jumped and kicked him in the head sending him flying; he collapsed and tried to pick himself up but collapsed and lay still.
Cell frowned and crossed his arms as she floated closer to him "At last you've come out of hiding, now the game will really get exciting" he said chuckling, she frowned and floated up so that they were eye level "No games" she snarled, he was surprised at her change of voice, it had gone from sounding soft and sweet to harsh and violent. He tried to grab her but she disappeared and appeared high above her, he flew up towards her.
Then she charged towards him "Yes" he shouted in excitement getting ready to punch her but she became transparent and went straight through him and when he looked up she was high above him, frowning down at him. He flew up towards her and started punching at her; she dodged every punch without even trying. He growled in frustration "Stop mocking me" he said annoyed.
She then started punching at him and he dodged but found it incredibly difficult as she was moving so fast, he then punched out and their knuckles collided, they kept punching each other's knuckles. Then he kicked out at her and she blocked with her elbow, while he growled and yelled as he attacked, she remained silent .
She flew back and he fired a small ball of energy at her which she casually slapped away as he sped towards her and tried to punch her, she flew back to dodge. She flew back until she was near the ground and she disappeared just as he hit the ground trying to punch her.
"Aht, she's so fast" said Garnet as she and the others watched the fight in amazement, Reno watched the battle fascinated "How did Aht achieved that much power? " he said to himself as the two fighters collided and then bounced off each other. They flew back and started punching at each other again, the impact of their knuckles hitting each other creating small fissure in the sky and the ground seemed to shake. "Wow that little girls good" said Envy as he and the others watched. "Cell has lost his advantage" said Pride.
By this point where the arena once stood now lay what looked like a small canyon,there were craters everywhere and giant fissures in the ground. Cell flew down towards Aht while yelling "Your mine!" but he only ended up creating another crater in the ground. He growled in frustration as he looked up to see her standing on a cliff above him, looking down at him almost mockingly.
"How did she do that?" he said in annoyance as she floated back down towards him . They continued to stare at each other in hatred; sparks flew out of Aht as she continued to look at the creature she despised more than anything else while Cell continued to growl in frustration at the little girl who was mocking him.
He punched at her and she leaned back to avoid it before kicking up at him forcing him to disappear to avoid it, she then looked up to see him and floated up to wards him, he yelled and started punching at her again and she dodged them expertly "Why do my punches always miss you" he yelled in anger as she continued to give him the silent treatment.
"Enough of this" he yelled and punched straight at her, smashing a small cliff nearby into a million pieces, there was nothing left and yet when he looked up he saw her looking down at him, when he looked back down however she was right in front of him as if she had been there the whole time. He was shocked at how quickly she moved and continued to stare in awe as she floated away from him and back down to the ground.
He landed down in front of her and continued to glare at her, then he smirked "Don't get over confident, for I young warrior have yet to show you what I'm truly capable off, but you will see soon enough" he said, "Can it" she suddenly said, he looked surprised but quickly started laughing "A cheeky one eh? Didn't your parents even teach you any manners?" he said mockingly, at the mention of her parents Aht's eyes widened and then the burning hatred returned and before Cell could act she punched him as hard she could in the gut.
Cell yelled in pain and his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, he held his stomach in pain as he backed off in utter shock, he could hardly breath and as such wasn't prepared when she jumped and punched him in the face sending him flying, he back flipped and skated across the ground as he landed on all fours, he could hardly stand up, every time he tried to he fell over back on his knees. He continued to gasp and coughed out purple blood "She only hit me with two punches" he said in horror as he tried desperately to stand. "So why am I so damaged?" he said in pain.
Kairi and the others watched in shock as the little warrior seemed to have brought Cell to his knees with only one punch "Aht your amazing" said Kairi, Terra smiled and watched as her friend fought the monster, then Maximus began to stir and she cried out in surprise when he grabbed her hand "Terra?" he said weakly, she cupped his face and gently stroked his hair "Yes Max I'm here" she said as he sat up, he looked round confused "What happened, the last thing I remember I took a hit for Reno" he said, Terra kept her hands on his shoulders "We haven't won yet, Aht's fighting him right now" she said, he looked at her in shock before looking to the battlefield to see his partner in front of the kneeling Cell.
"That's Aht?" he said in shock as he took in her radically changed appearance "What's going on? What happened to her?" he said in panic, Terra kept a hold of him "She awakened her hidden power" she said gently, Maximus turned to her as if she had lost it "Are you insane, why did you let her do that?" he yelled, she looked at him in shock "So she can defeat Cell of course, she has incredible power didn't you know that" she said, he yelled in frustration and slammed his fist into the ground "Of course I know that but do you have any idea what she might do with this power? For Christ sake Terra she's only a little girl! She can't control that sort of energy!" he shouted.
Terra looked hurt and shocked as he yelled at her before she too got angry and started yelling at him "Well if you hadn't been so incompetent then this wouldn't have happened! If you had actually let her help! But no you wanted to prove yourself when there wasn't even any need!" she yelled, he glared at her "So your saying this is my fault!?" he yelled and she was about to shout back when Garnet s topped them "Guys stop it! She shouted.
They both stopped and then huffed refusing to look at each other "Well I'm not going to sit around here, my partner needs me" said Maximus and he tried to stand up but he gasped in pain and collapsed again "Don't be stupid Max your badly injured you need to stay still" said Terra as she supported him, "Well then you go" he said, she winced and clutched the side of her head "I can't I can't move to much or else I get dizzy" she said embarrassed, he cupped the side of her face gently "Sorry for yelling at you" he said gently, she blushed and then leaned into his touch "Same here" she said softly.
It was amazing how quickly they went from wanting to tear each other's throats out to affectionate and sweet to each other in a matter of seconds; it always con fused Garnet whenever it happened. The two leant against each other as they watched the fight continue "Do you think she can win" she whispered, "It's not about whether she can win or not, it's about whether she can control that much energy " he said as he wrapped her arm over his shoulder.
White and gold aura began to pulse out of Aht as she continued to watch Cell in agony as he tried to stand up, his face was bruised and there was blood leaking from his lips, he was growling in anger. Then she slowly started walking towards him, he growled in fear and stepped away, she kept walking until they were just a few inches away from each other, he was snarling down at her while she merely glared at him.
"You are as foolish as your partner, it' s time for you to learn some respect" he snarled before kicking at her which she blocked easily, he yelled and kept kicking "Fight back!" he yelled, she caught his leg and yelled as she brought her leg back and leaped up and kicked him hard in the face sending him flying and crashing head first into the dirt several metres away.
He groaned in pain as he picked himself up and turned to glare at her, his mouth was bleeding even more and some of his teeth had popped out "I will not be humiliated by a child, this had gone on far enough, I'am tired of playing these games!" he yelled as he stood up and began to power up, he clenched his fists "This is impossible, I'am complete. It is impossible for a child to defeat me yet alone one who couldn't even defeat Freiza, I have no equal! And yet somehow she's different, it's obviously some form of Trance she's using but what is it and how did she acquire it?" he thought as she continued to just stare at him. "Very well , you want to go once again? Then so be it but this will be the last time" he yelled in his mind as he kept powering up as she started walking towards him.
He began to yell and held his hands out as two giant discs of energy formed on both of his hands "Destructor Disks" he shouted as he threw the two discs toward her "Look out!" shouted Sora, Aht put her hands out and caught the disks with her bare hands. "She caught them, she caught the disks" said Zidane in amazement, "Impossible!" yelled Reno in surprise. " Aht" said Terra in amazement as Maximus kept watching.
"What kind of kid is this?" said Envy as he watched Aht grab the discs "One you clearly don't mess around with" said Beezlemon weakly as he stood up, he looked on in awe at what was happening before him "I tell you something she was not this strong when she fought against me on Namek all those years ago" he said as he kept watching.
Aht yelled and the discs evaporated into nothing, Cell looked shocked and then he growled in anger "You little fool, I'l l show you what true power is!" he yelled and he flew high into the air "Makakosappo" he yelled as a giant piercing laser beam shot towards her, she stopped as he began laughing maniacally "Now what will you do!" he yelled.
"Watch and learn" said Aht as slapped away the beam into the sky with the back of her hand, the blast exploded in the atmosphere briefly lighting up the entire planet in a yellow and purple aura. Then the sky returned to normal as she calmly put her hand down and awaited Cell's next move.
"Curse you!" he shouted as he watched his attack fail, "Rapid fire!" he shouted firing hundreds of little beams at her which seemed to go straight through her, he stopped firing and stared at her in confusion "What, she's still standing!" he said in surprise as she remained still . "Those blasts went right through her, it's impossible" he thought as she kept walking.
He stared at her in fear as she came closer "What are you so afraid of Cell? Isn't this what you wanted? To fight the greatest warrior in the universe and test you strength? But now you're scared because you know you're finished and that I'm going to kill you" she snarled as he yelled in terror and flew high into the sky.
"He's running away!" shouted Xion, Riku grinned and then looked panicked as he s tarted charging an attack "Oh shit!" he shouted when he saw what he was doing, " Kamehameha!" Cell shouted at the top of his lungs before firing a giant blast at her "No!" screamed Maximus as the others all took cover "Not like this" cried Sora as he hugged Kairi unexpectedly.
"I'm going to destroy this planet now and there is nothing you can do about it" yelled Cell as he laughed, "Final…." muttered Aht as she powered up and placed her hands together "…Flash!" she shouted firing another massive beam that engulfed Cell's and blasted it right back at him "No! What have you done?" he yelled as the blast moved towards him, he put his hands out and tried to stop it but it was just too powerful "I can't stop it" he yelled in panic, then the blast exploded engulfing him, Cell could only scream as the blast consumed him and carried on into space. "Gosh" said Mickey as he watched the blast fly into space; he had seen many battles but none on this scale . The explosion sent a massive dust cloud at everyone and they all ducked and took cover as they were engulfed by dirt.
Reno shook dirt of him as he surfaced and looked out onto the battlefield, there was no sign of Cell anywhere "How can Aht have that much power? Incredible" he said to himself as the others surfaced. "Who knew defeating Cell would be such a blast" said Zidane chuckling, Kairi then looked up and gasped "No Cell is still alive, I can feel his soul wavelength, it's a lot weaker now but he is still very much alive" she said.
Cell was in utter agony, both of his legs were gone, his right arm had been singed to pieces at the elbow and most of the top of his head was missing along with his wings, Aht smirked in satisfaction.
She made no other move; she just continued to watch him groan in shock and pain. "Hey what's going on? Why isn't she finishing him off" said Riku as Maximus kept watching.
"This can't be, there's no way that little brat could be so strong" said Cell, Zidane then realised what would happen "Aht! You have to finish him off now other wise he'll regenerate!" he shouted to her but she ignored him. "Zidane's right Aht you have to finish him now!" shouted Maximus.
"Now? No I think I'll wait, I wanna make him suffer first" said Aht in a tone Maximus had never heard from her, "Suffer, no Aht" he whispered, then he frowned and stood up, he had regained some strength and he ignored Terra's cries as he walked onto the battlefield.
"That's not how we do things Aht" he said as he walked towards her, "My rules now" she spat glaring at him. "Listen to yourself Aht this isn't you, your angry and you're afraid, I get that but you need to focus otherwise you'll end up just like him" he said pointing to Cell who started to grow his lost limbs back.
Aht's face changed to a look of surprise, before going back to her usual scowl " No I won't end up like him, you don't have to worry Max. I got this under control" she said but even as she said that he could see her shaking, she looked like she was going to burst any second.
Cell floated down towards them, he looked battered and bloody. "What kind of monster is this Maximus?" he said in shock as he continued to look at Aht.
"She's my partner and my friend and she' s beaten you so there's no need to continue this anymore, leave now Cell go back to your masters and give them a warning , we're coming for them!" he said, Cell growled and fired a blast at Maximus sending him flying "I don't take orders from the likes of you!" he shouted, "Maximus" screamed Terra as Aht looked in shock as her friend lay on the ground.
Then she yelled in anger and began to glow white "Cell!" she screamed at the top of her lungs, her entire body began to glow and the ground cracked and became uneven, it felt like the entire world was going to fall apart.
"Everyone we need to get out of her right now!" shouted Mickey as he pulled out a Star Shard, "Terra, Maximus, Aht!" shouted Zidane not wanting to leave behind his friends.
A giant dome of white energy began to shoot out of Aht as she continued to yell, Cell backed off but found himself drawn to the ground like there was an invisible hand holding him down, Terra grabbed Maximus and flew away from the incoming blast "Aht!" she screamed as the little girl disappeared in the blast.
Cell could only scream in pain as his body slowly dissolved into nothing "I'am perfect!" were his last words as he broke apart and was disintegrated, not a single cell surviving. The blast caught up to Beezlemon and the others, Ridley tried to fly away but his wings were burnt off and he crashed to the ground, several Homunculi were caught in the blast, Envy escaped by transforming into a small lizard and hiding in a crevasse while Pride teleported away just in the nick of time, Beezlemon was able to survive but his face was badly burned as he was sent flying by the aftershock "This can't be happening!" he yelled as he was crushed and buried by the planets crust.
"Run" shouted the others as everyone grabbed hold of Mickeys Star shard as the blast went towards them, Mickey concentrated and though of Yen Sid's tower as the Star Shard glowed and then they were gone.
The blast finally ended and all that remained of where the Cell Games once took place was Aht as she floated down toward the ground, she had her eyes closed and it looked like she was sleeping, she fell to her knees and then fell forward, exploding into tiny pieces of light that flew away, like fireflies, into the air.
And then there was silence on the dead planet
A/N Yes, go Aht! Wait she died? Noooooooooo! Yeah well that's what happens when you put all your energy into an attack, The Cell Games saga comes to a close in this rather sad ending, Maximus and the others must deal with the loss of their friend but the fight against evil is far from over and the Alliance is still going strong, New worlds await our heroes in Chapter 21 Wish You Were Here: There's Trouble in Alexandria?
