If you like this fic, you'll surely like his.
Death at The Cell Games
It was 9:00 AM when the alarm clock went off. The sound it gave off was its own demise. Kaiser smashed it with his tail and now he would have to answer to his mother but since today was the day the planet could be on the verge of destruction, he wasn't gonna get scolded. He slowly opened his eyes and turned his head to the side where Brila was. Her face was so peaceful and beautiful even if she was just 11 years old. She was an Angel that had descended from the heavens. Kaiser slowly and gently moved the lock of hair that was on her face so he could see her better.
Brila slowly opened her eyes and saw Kaiser staring into her eyes. "Did you sleep well?" He said almost romantically.
"Yeah. You?" She asked.
"I did. Come on let's get changed and go downstairs." Kaiser said as he got up from the bed. "I'll see you downstairs." He said as he disappeared behind the bathroom doors. She smiled and left the room. She slowly crept towards her room hoping that no one would see her. After a minute of sneaking around she finally got to her room but as she was about to enter someone caught her by the shoulder. She jumped in surprise and then she slowly turned around and saw Bulma looking at her with a warm smile.
"Where were you?" She asked casually.
"Err…Um…I-I…Was…Um…" She stuttered.
"Just joking, I know where you were." She chuckled.
"What? R-Really?" She gasped.
"I came to Kaiser's room last night and I saw you two sleeping together. That was so adorable. I took a picture too." She giggled making Brila blush profusely.
"Please don't tell anyone." She whispered.
"Well there's only one who I have told." She chuckled sarcastically.
"What? Who?" She asked hoping that it would not be Vegeta.
"Why Vegeta of course." She said making Brila almost fall over.
"Why him?" She whimpered.
"Well he's my husband, Kaiser's father and your father in law." She said with a bright smile.
"Yeah, I guess you're ri—FATHER IN LAW?" She exclaimed in surprise.
"Whoops, sorry. That slipped." She chuckled. Brila was now blushing and she was blushing hard. Although the thought of marrying Kaiser wasn't all that bad. She quick snapped back to reality and regained her composure. "Go get changed and then come down for breakfast." Bulma continued. Brila nodded and retreated into her room.
Kaiser was in the shower with the temperature on maximum. The whole bathroom was filled with steam. It was so bad that you couldn't see what was in front of you. Kaiser was standing right under the shower as lava like water beat down on the back of his head. The water ran down his small yet ripped body. The temperature of the water could've easily burned any human but Kaiser was no human, the water didn't even faze him. He slowly opened his eyes a little. He held out his hand in front of his face and stared into his palm. He clenched his fist tightly and grunted.
"I really hope that Goku has a plan. He's the strongest out of us all and if he isn't as strong as Cell then who is? I might die today…But I'll make sure that it won't be in vain…hopefully." He thought to himself as he clenched his fists even tighter.
After a while, everyone had gathered on the table. They ate their breakfast silently. Even Kaiser who managed to say one thing or the other remained silent. The only sounds that could be heard were the clashing of the cutleries and the baby sounds of Trunks. As soon as they finished, the warriors along with Bulma and baby Trunks stepped outside.
"Goku told us to meet him at the lookout." Trunks said he broke the silence.
"Then off to the lookout we go." Kaiser said almost cheerily.
"Wait!" Bulma said worriedly. Everyone turned around to face her with not very surprised eyes. It was obvious that she was worried senseless and she wanted everyone to come back unharmed but unfortunately for her, she knew that they were gonna get hurt. She first stepped over to Vegeta and without saying a word she placed her soft lips gently on his. He was taken slightly off guard but he returned the kiss without hesitation.
After a couple of brief moments, they split apart. Bulma smiled lovingly at him and Vegeta also gave her one of his rare smiles. She then moved to Trunks and hugged him tightly. "Take care Trunks and keep your father, brother and Brila out of trouble." She said as she kissed him on his cheek.
"I will mom." He smiled brightly. Bulma then moved to her young one. The one who influenced many lives. The reason this family was so happy.
"Kaiser. You keep an eye out for you know who." She said sheepishly as she hugged him tightly. "Please come back safely. I love you." She said as she kissed his cheek.
"I love you too mom." Kaiser said as he gave her his trademark smile.
Finally she moved over to Brila. She put her hand on her cheek and massaged it slowly.
"You've only been here for a few days and yet you have become a part of this family. You're practically my daughter now but then again that would be wrong." She said as she rubbed her chin.
"Wrong?" Brila asked as she raised an eyebrow.
"Well you are gonna be my daughter in law sooner or later." She blurted out making Brila and Kaiser blush immensely.
"MOM!" Kaiser yelled with his face till very red.
"I am kidding." She chuckled as she hugged Brila. "Take care of yourself and make sure your boyfriend thing doesn't get himself into trouble." She said receiving a determined look from Brila.
"I will." She said boldly.
"Alright, well I won't be keeping you any longer. You guys have a job to do and I wish you the best of luck." She said as she stepped away from the warriors.
"Alright guys grab on." Kaiser said as he put two fingers on his forehead. Trunks grabbed his right shoulder and Vegeta grabbed his left shoulder and like always, Brila tied her tail around his and within a second they vanished.
At the lookout…
They reappeared in an instant in front of the rest of the Z-Gang who were all ready to go.
"Hey guys!" Goku greeted cheerfully. This did raise a few eyebrows.
"Please tell me you have a plan Goku." Trunks said seriously.
"What?" Goku said innocently.
"You're acting all relaxed and all. You must've a plan of some sort."
"Oh I do. We'll win for sure." He paused. "You guys ready to go?" He asked as he lifted off. He was replied by several bodies lifting up into the air and in the next second they shot towards the Cell Games. Gohan flew closer to Kaiser and Brila in order to make a conversation.
"Hello you two." Gohan said casually.
"Hey G." Kaiser replied without looking at him. Brila however did look back at him.
"Hi there Gohan." She said warmly.
"So what's this plan your dad has in mind?" Kaiser blurted out.
"Uh…well…I…don't know." Gohan said uneasily.
"What do you mean you don't know?" Kaiser growled making Brila and Gohan jump a little. Kaiser immediately regretted his outburst. The pressure was starting to get to him.
"Kaiser…don't be like that." Brila whispered.
Kaiser took a deep breath and looked at his best friend. "Sorry Gohan. I am just tensed, that's all. I didn't mean to yell at you." He said as he bowed his head in shame.
"Don't worry about it K. I understand how you feel. I don't feel very good about this either." Gohan said warmly.
"Thanks G." Kaiser said with a smile.
"Don't worry Kaiser. Everything will be fine." Brila added.
"Thanks Brila." Kaiser said as he tied his tail around hers making her blush slightly.
"Kaiser, I need you to promise me something." She said as she got closer to him.
"Anything." He said unfazed.
"Promise me that you won't die." She said ever so seriously. Kaiser looked at her for a few seconds and then his lips curved into a smile that she always craved for.
"I promise." He said warmly. Brila smiled lovingly at him and proceeded to kiss him gently on his cheek making him blush immensely. Gohan laughed uncontrollably at this making both of them blush even more.
"You two look so cute together." He said as he ceased his laughter.
"Shut it G." Kaiser said angrily making Gohan laugh even more.
"You can be so rude you know." Gohan said playfully.
"What do you mean?" Kaiser said with an annoyed tone.
"How come you didn't kiss her back?" He said boldly knowing that he might get hit but instead he found a puzzled look on Kaiser's face.
"He's right…why didn't I?" He thought to himself. Brila was not too happy. This was the 5th time that she had kissed him and she still got nothing in return. She slowly tried to get out of the hold of his tail but he tightened it not wanting to let go. She looked up to him and she saw that his face was just inches away from hers. He moved closer and brought his lips over to her ear.
"I am sorry Brila. I can be clueless sometimes." He whispered as his hot breath tickled her ear. She was almost shivering now. She just felt such warmth which was gone now and the cold air that was beating on her face wasn't helping either. He then moved back to her cheek and planted a gentle kiss that lasted for a good five seconds. He opened his eyes to look at hers and then on that note he moved back. "Happy?" He said warmly.
"V-Very." She said as she felt the cold feeling leave her instantly. Kaiser smiled warmly at her once more and then he looked back at Gohan who was watching everything with great interest.
"And are you happy too?" Kaiser asked playfully.
"I am always happy." Gohan chuckled making his two best friends laugh with him. Their laughter was interrupted when they spotted Tien and Yamcha waiting for them.
"Hey guys. We'll be joining you but we won't fight. We're outclassed." Tien said in a defeated tone.
"But if this is Earth's last hour than I'll be more than happy to go out with you guys." Yamcha said bravely earning several nods of acknowledgement.
"That's fine you two. Let's go." Goku said as he resumed his flight making everyone do the same.
10 minutes later…
They had finally touched down outside the ring. Inside the center of the ring was Cell who standing there as cool as a cucumber but there were others there too. Two news reporter and a man with an untidy afro and a mustache. He was wearing a white cape with a maroon shirt and white lowers.
"So that's Cell. He's even uglier than you described!" Brila gasped making Kaiser and Gohan laugh but then her gaze fell on the three human strangers. "Who are they? Do you guys know them?" Brila asked.
"I don't." Gohan replied.
"Two news reporters and Hercule Satan." Kaiser said with a bored expression.
"Who?" Gohan and Brila said in unison.
"Hercule Satan. This year's champion of the World's Martial Arts Tournament. Dad, Trunks and I watch that stuff on TV and make fun of them about how crap they are." Kaiser chuckled.
"Satan…why does that sound so familiar?" Gohan said as he rubbed his chin. He only received shrugs from Kaiser and Brila. The name Satan did not remind them of anyone else besides the oaf with afro.
"Oh dear." Kaiser said as he dug his face into his hands making Brila and Gohan turn their heads towards him.
"What is it?" Gohan asked.
"He's here to fight." Kaiser said with an annoyed expression.
"That fool! He'll die." Brila said angrily.
"Don't worry." Gohan said as he pointed towards his father. "Dad's going first."
They all took a sigh of relief but that was cut short when Hercule stepped up. "What is he doing now?" Kaiser growled.
"He says that he's going to go first." Brila replied.
"That's right! I! Hercule Satan will show this bug whose boss." Hercule yelled as he stepped into the ring.
"This isn't gonna end well." Gohan said uneasily.
"You said it G." Kaiser replied. Without warning, Hercule dashed towards Cell with such speed that the Z-Fighters would consider 'sluggish'. He proceeded to hammer away at Cell who wasn't even attempting to block those attacks.
"You see that folks? Hercule is not even giving Cell enough time to block any of his attacks! Cell will be down in no ti-" Before he could finish, Hercule was slapped on his face sending him flying out of the ring and crashing him into a nearby mountain. The young Saiyan trio tried their best to suppress their laughter but in the end they allowed themselves to chuckle just a little but now a serious question arose, whose turn is it now?
"Right. So that old oaf is out. He's still alive, that's good. Dad would probably slap me for this." He said as his lips curved into a smile. He knew that his father would've wanted Hercule to die. "But on a serious note. Who's going next? Hm?" His thoughts were answered when Goku stepped into the ring with Cell. "So it'll be Goku. Why so early though? He's probably the strongest out of us all. Why would he go first?" Kaiser asked himself as his expression became sterner. Brila noticed the change of expression on Kaiser's face and then she poked him with her tail wanting to that what's on his mind.
"What's wrong Kaiser." She asked.
"Why is Goku going first?" He asked plainly making Gohan turn his head to his best friend.
"What do you mean by that?" Gohan asked curiously.
"It's just that, he's probably the strongest from our side and it just doesn't make sense. Shouldn't someone else go first and weaken Cell so it'll be easier for Goku to beat him?"
"You have point there brat." Vegeta grunted making the three young Saiyans jump in surprise. "I don't know what's on Kakarot's mind but whatever it is; I hope it does us good." He concluded. The three Saiyans nodded in agreement as they watched the fight start.
"Kaiser?" Brila spoke up making Kaiser look at her with a warm smile.
"Yes princess?" He teased making her blush. She looked down trying her best to hide her red cheeks. Her chin was then lifted by Kaiser gentle fingers and he looked into her black orbs that would always send him into a trance. "What is it?" He asked.
"It's cold." She said cheekily making Kaiser chuckle lightly. Vegeta watched all this and wanted to slap them both across the head.
"Why are they doing this in the middle of a battlefield?" He thought to himself letting out a growl that only caught Gohan's attention.
"Come on Veggie. Let them have some fun." Gohan said playfully.
"Silence brat." The prince hissed making Gohan laugh a little.
"What do you want me to do about it?" Kaiser asked in a husky voice as he ignored his father's and best friend's comments.
"What you always do." She said as she got closer. Kaiser merely nodded and pulled her towards him hugging her tightly. This is had somehow caught Cell's attention who was dodging and blocking Goku's blows.
"Looks like I know who to kill first." He thought to himself as a grin surfaced on his lips but this had distracted him enough to earn a kick to the abdomen sending him tumbling almost out of bounds.
"What's wrong Cell? Distracted?" Goku asked as a smirk surfaced on his face. Cell quickly got up and returned Goku's smirk with a smirk of his own.
"Kind of." He said evilly.
"Kind of?"
"I was just wondering who to kill first after this is all over. I know now." He said maniacally. This caught the attention of every warrior there. Who was it? Who was going to kill first? Everyone had those sorts of questions swarming into their head.
Goku growled and dashed towards Cell with explosive speed and then the two resumed their fight. They exchanged blow for blow. They looked so evenly matched but some could tell that Cell was just holding back. With a final blow the two fighters separated.
"I must say Goku. You are a worthy opponent for someone as perfect as me." Cell spoke.
Goku wiped the blood that escaped his mouth and looked at his opponent with a smirk. "You are quite powerful yourself Cell but I got something up my sleeve." Goku said as he took a power up stance and began channeling his energy and with burst of blinding light he powered up to his maximum. He yelled as hard as he could to channel his energy to perfection. One could tell that more than half of the Earth was shaking uncontrollably. Everyone watched in awe as Goku powered up to his maximum.
"I-Impossible!" The prince gasped. "He's almost as strong as Broly! Where did he get this kind of power?" Vegeta hissed.
"So that's the power you have been hiding." Cell said as the smirk disappeared. "Now let me show you my power." He said as he began to charge up. With a loud yell he too powered to what the Z-Fighters thought was his maximum. Cell regained that smirk and within an instant he vanished and resumed his assault on Goku. Goku did the same as he resumed his onslaught.
"So that was your dad's plan all along?" Kaiser asked in disbelief.
"Yeah I guess." Gohan said as he watched carefully.
"I hope not." Kaiser replied raising several eyebrows.
"What do you mean by that?" Trunks asked as he stepped next to his brother.
"Have you all forgotten? Cell can regenerate! It wouldn't be a problem if Goku's power totally eclipsed Cell's but that's not the case. Goku is equal to Cell right now." Kaiser said as he clenched his fist.
"Don't worry boy, that isn't Kakarot's plan." Vegeta said calmly.
"What do you mean Vegeta?" Brila spoke as she finally found the courage to speak up.
"What I mean is." He paused. "Kakarot would never enter a battle like that. He knows that he can't overpower Cell. He has a different plan. What that is? I don't know." He explained answering everyone's question.
"I hope you're right dad." Kaiser said as he resumed his gaze on the fight. Vegeta looked at his son and the girl in his arms and grunted.
"Are you ever gonna let go of her?" He exploded.
"Jealous pops?" Kaiser asked cheekily.
"Kaiser! Shush!" Brila whispered. "I am sorry Vegeta. I'll step away from him if you want." She said boldly. Vegeta watched her curiously. She was doing as she was told but that was supposed to be a good thing or was it?
"Grr. No it's fine. Forget it." The prince gave up. She looked at Vegeta and then back at Kaiser who had the same confused look that she had but that look immediately vanished as she dug her face into his chest however their moment was interrupted when Cell flew up high into the sky. He told something to Goku that made Goku panic.
"EVERYONE! GET AWAY FROM THE RING! CELL'S GONNA BLOW IT UP!" He yelled as he moved away from the blast that Cell released the moment Goku stopped talking.
Everyone readied themselves to fly away from the scene. Kaiser held onto Brila tighter as he blitzed his way out of there. She could not believe the speed Kaiser had just used. He transformed into a Super Saiyan making their getaway last only a millisecond. Gohan made a little detour; he actually bothered to save Hercule and the camera crew.
As the blast hit the ground, it totally obliterated the ring and also any nearby mountains. The Z-Fighters regrouped on a nearby cliff, of course Gohan set Hercule and Co. away from them so they wouldn't suffer Vegeta's wrath.
"Shit just got real." Krillen whimpered.
"KRILLEN!" Tien hissed.
"What?"
"There are kids here." The Yamcha continued.
"Yeah Krillen! There are kids here!" Kaiser chuckled.
"Well you guys shut up!" Piccolo growled making everyone shut up instantly.
"You actually bothered to save them G?" Kaiser whispered not wanting to anger the Namekian.
"What do you mean? Of course I did!" Gohan exclaimed.
"Calm down G. I was just kidding." Kaiser said as he scratched the back of his head making Gohan laugh somewhat.
"Kaiser why did Cell destroy the ring?" Brila asked.
"It was meant to happen. Cell would never settle for a fight fought within a ring." Vegeta intervened.
"What he said." Kaiser continued. Brila looked at the two with a slight hint of fear. She knew that Cell was much stronger than her and she had a feeling that he even might be stronger than Broly. That sent goose bumps down her spine. She snapped back to reality as she noticed Kaiser staring at her.
"What?" She asked.
"Don't worry Bri. Everything will be fine." He said reassuringly giving her a warm smile.
"I hope you're right." She replied with a smile of her own as she looked back at the fight.
Goku rushed towards Cell with a roundhouse kick that was easily dodged but he didn't stop just there. He attempted to strike Cell with a back hand but that too was blocked and it left an opening. This allowed Cell to deliver a fury of punches. He must've been hitting with one thousand punches per second. Just when he was about to deliver the killer blow, Goku ducked and kicked him upwards sending Cell flying. Goku followed him with a right hook but just as he was about to hit him, he vanished making Goku stay alert. Cell reappeared behind to kick him but Goku vanished this time and reappeared behind Cell for a lariat but Cell vanished again. This same process happened several times until Goku found the right timing. He kneed Cell to his gut and then punched him as hard as he could making Cell fly down the ground however to Goku's displeasure, Cell landed on his feet.
"Is that all you have Goku?" Cell said as he wiped the blood of his face.
"Oh don't worry Cell. I have a lot more to offer." Goku said those last words with a hint of pressure. He started focusing almost all of his energy in the palm of his hands and took a stance. "KAME!" He yelled out the first chant.
"What the hell are you doing Goku?" Cell asked in disbelief.
"Everyone! Take cover! Goku is gonna unleash the Kamehameha!" Piccolo yelled out making everyone stare at the Saiyan in the sky in disbelief.
"Relax guys. He's just bluffing." Krillen said rather nervously. "If he fires that thing, he'll destroy the planet. Goku is crazy but not that crazy." He added but his eyes widened in horror when he saw a blue orb form in Goku's cupped up hands.
"HAME!" He yelled the second chant even louder.
"NO! Goku! You wouldn't!" Cell gasped in disbelief.
"No dad! Don't!" Gohan said as he looked at his father in disbelief.
"Goku…please don't…" Brila whimpered.
"Goddamn it Kakarot! What are you planning?" Vegeta growled.
"GOKU! STOP THIS MADNESS!" Cell yelled out but that didn't make him stop.
"W-What? No…there has to be something else. Goku would never!" Kaiser said in disbelief.
Then in an instant, Goku vanished and reappeared in front of Cell and looked at him with cold eyes. Cell looked back at him in horror.
"OH SHI-" Before he could finish, Goku yelled out the final chant.
"HAAAAA!" Goku yelled out as loud as he could. The blast was strong enough to disintegrate Cell's upper body. The bright blue light vanished and revealed Cell's lower half on the ground.
Everyone looked in awe at Goku and the lower half of Cell's body. Their look of horror transformed into a delighted one.
"He…HE DID IT!" Krillen cheered. "He sure had us scared." He chuckled.
"Thank goodness!" Yamcha exclaimed.
"If there was anyone who could do it, it would always have been Goku." Tien said as he joined in the celebration but it was cut short when they noticed the stern faces of the other Z-Fighters.
"Hey guys. Goku won! What's with the long faces?" Yamcha asked curiously but the only reply he got were serious faces.
"K…are you thinking what I am thinking?" Gohan asked as he glanced over to his best friend.
"If you're thinking that this was too easy, G, then yes." Kaiser said as he looked back at Gohan.
"What's going on here? Why's there so much energy oozing out of Cell?" Goku thought as he tried his best to get as much oxygen as he can. He was clearly tired, that Kamehameha took a lot out of him.
Then it suddenly hit Piccolo. It was so obvious! "GOKU! IT'S NOT OVER! CELL CAN REGENERATE!" He yelled making sure that everyone could hear him. Everyone turned their heads back to Cell's lower half and then watched in horror as it sprung up. The part from where it was cut started to move making the most disgusting of noises and after a few brief moments, Cell's upper half popped out revealing him undamaged. His smirk had returned and that deadly look was there with it. Everyone watched in disbelief and one question had popped into everyone's mind. Just what is he?
"Well well Goku. I must say that your technique was most impressive. You really caught me off guard with that one but thanks to Piccolo's DNA…" Cell paused as he glanced over to Piccolo making take a step back. "I can regenerate any part of my body." He said as he grinned evilly.
"Stupid bug! What else can he do?" Vegeta scowled but unfortunately Cell heard him.
"You haven't seen anything yet Vegeta." He said with a smirk making the prince even angrier than before. "Shall we resume our little brawl Goku?" Cell asked as he rose above the ground.
"You *pant* are *pant* something else." Goku gasped as he followed Cell.
The two instantly began their brawl however they started with Ki attacks this time. They shot out several blasts that were meant to kill. They parried each other's blasts with their own but unfortunately for Goku, he was running out of energy and fast. Goku then decided to push harder as he increased the amount of Ki blasts that easily over powered Cells forcing him to block them. Even if he was stronger than Goku, those blasts still did significant damage to him
He growled angrily and then he flung his hands up that created a barrier which rendered all of Goku's Ki blasts useless.
"Not *pant* bad *pant* Goku." Cell panted.
"*PANT* *PANT* PANT*" Was all that Goku could get out of his mouth.
"What's wrong Goku? I feel your energy slipping away. I don't think you can last much longer." Cell laughed evilly. "It's hardly worth the effort to kill you now but I don't want to disappoint the audience because I know they want to see a real champion. The next battle we will engage in will be your last Goku."
Goku watched Cell as he panted for air but then his frown took a 180 and his lips curved into a smirk. "You're right about one thing Cell *pant*. The world does want to see a true champion and it won't be me." Goku said as he powered down while still maintaining his Super Saiyan form.
Everyone watched in disbelief. It was bad enough for Cell to have the upper hand but now Goku was powering down? What was going? Questions like those were making their ways into the minds of the Z-Fighters.
"What do you think you're doing Goku?" Cell scowled.
"It's over Cell. You win. I give up. I know how strong you are and there's no point in fighting any longer. I can't beat you." Goku said with a smile.
Everyone was taken off guard. Even Cell couldn't believe what Goku had just said.
"WHAT?" Cell growled.
"Y-You coward!" Vegeta scowled in disbelief.
"No! Don't do it Goku!" Trunks gasped.
"That can't be!" Krillen whimpered.
"Goku never gives up!" Tien exclaimed.
"He's actually giving up?" Yamcha said in disbelief.
"W-Why?" Brila gasped.
"THIS WAS HIS PLAN?" Piccolo growled. "You can't let him win like this!"
"T-This isn't happening." Kaiser said wide eyed.
"No! Dad!" Gohan said as his knees began to feel weak.
"Surely you're joking! You can't just say 'I give up' and just expect to walk away!" Cell growled.
"Sure I can. You beat me. I give up."
"Grr. You can quit if you wish but if there's no one else left to fight me, I am going to vaporize this planet!"
"There's still one more person left for you to fight."
"What? Well if get to pick then please let me fight Kaiser." Cell hissed as he pointed towards the young Saiyan who immediately stiffened in response. "I have wanted to shut him up since day one."
"Sorry Cell but you won't get to pick."
"You're actually going through with this?" Cell said angrily.
"What do you think you're doing Kakarot? This better be your master plan that you kept secret from us." Vegeta thought to himself as sweat trickled down his forehead.
"The person I am about to pick is a lot stronger than I am so if you had fun fighting me Cell, you're going to like this one even more."
"You seem to have a lot of confidence in this fighter of yours. Out with it! Where is he?"
"Oh he is here."
"I am losing my patience Goku! Say the name!" Cell yelled angrily.
"Alright guys. I can't go on and I need one of you must take over." He said as he glanced over to his friends.
"Who's he gonna pick? No one is as strong as him or Cell. He was more or less the guy who was supposed to beat Cell. It can't be Brila. She's weaker than me and if he does pick her, I'll make sure she doesn't fight. Could it be Gohan? No. He's weaker than me too. It could be Piccolo because of his experience but then again he isn't too powerful. That leaves dad, Trunks and myself. Both Trunks and dad are stronger than I am but dad is stronger than Trunks so does that mean that he's gonna go next? What's on your mind Goku?" Kaiser thought as his grip on Brila got tighter.
"Kaiser?" She asked in a concerned tone.
"What is he doing? He knows full well that no one is stronger than him then WHY?" Kaiser growled. Brila didn't know what to say in response. She too was wondering what the older Saiyan was thinking.
"The person that'll fight Cell is you, son." Goku said with a broad smile. Several gasps were heard. Kaiser turned his head slowly towards Gohan who was shell shocked.
"G-Gohan? But why?" Kaiser whimpered. "GOKU! Pick me instead! I am stronger than Gohan!" Kaiser said as he did his best to protect his best friend from certain death.
"Don't be silly Kaiser." Goku smiled.
"W-What?"
"Gohan is stronger than you." He said as he flew over to his son. Kaiser just watched Goku in disbelief. He didn't know what else to say.
"G-Gohan…No…" Piccolo growled silently.
"K-K-Kakarot! You fool!" Vegeta growled but Goku merely ignored him.
"What do you say son? I know you can beat Cell. You have the power to." Goku said as he put his hand on his son's shoulder.
"I don't know dad. If you couldn't beat him, how can I?" Gohan asked nervously.
"Just believe in yourself Gohan. You always had that hidden potential. I am confident that you can put Cell down. The sooner you defeat him the sooner we can go home and live happy." Goku said as he ruffled the boy's hair with his hand. Gohan looked down for a moment and then he looked back into his father's eyes. He could see belief and trust and that for him, was enough.
"Okay dad. I'll do it." He said calmly. This made Kaiser's heart sink. How could Goku do this to his own son? What was he thinking?
"That's my boy. Hey Krillen, give me a senzu bean."
"Oh sure. Here you go." He said as he threw a bean over to Goku. Goku caught it and looked over to Cell.
"Hey Cell!" Goku called out to the Android. This spiked everyone's curiosity, what was he doing now. "Catch!" He yelled as he threw the bean over to Cell who caught it and looked down at it.
"This is gonna cost you a lot of lives." He said as he chewed and then swallowed the bean. Everyone felt his energy return but what shocked them more was what Goku had done. Even Vegeta was dumbfounded.
"GOKU! Have you finally lost it?" Piccolo growled.
"Calm down Piccolo. I want it to be a fair fight, that's all." Goku said as the smile didn't fade. Piccolo along with everyone else were shattered at Goku's response.
"A fair fight? ARE YOU CRAZY KAKAROT? THAT IS YOUR SON THERE!" The prince yelled angrily.
"I know. Don't worry Vegeta, he'll be fine." Goku said casually.
Brila saw the despair on Kaiser's face and she frowned and moved her hand to his cheek making him look at her. "If things go bad, we will step in. I'll be with you, now and always." She said with a loving smile. Kaiser smiled back at her and nodded. Kaiser let go of her and walked over to Gohan.
"Good luck G. Don't worry. We have your back." He said reassuringly with a smile. Gohan nodded and smiled back at him. He then took off his cape and jumped down where Cell had landed. Kaiser walked back to Brila and put his arms around her once more.
"You are brave Gohan. I'll give you that. Not many sons are willing to fight their father's battles." Cell smiled.
"Let's cut to the chase shall we?" Gohan asked as he began to power up. He took a stance and let out a yell allowing him to reach his full power. With a final yell, a bright light engulfed Gohan and he was left surrounded by a golden aura.
"I-Incredible! Gohan! You're so strong!" Piccolo exclaimed.
"But this isn't enough Piccolo. Kaiser was right. He's still stronger than Gohan." Brila whispered.
"I know. I just hope that this won't cost him his life." He growled.
"Not bad boy. Your power is quite impressive. I guess this won't be as bad as I thought it would be." Cell said with an interested tone and then without warning Cell dashed towards Gohan without warning.
Gohan surprisingly managed dodge all of Cell's attacks. He was quick and Cell knew it as none of his blows were connecting with his tiny body. With a final attempt that failed, Cell dashed away from the demi Saiyan.
"Not bad Gohan. You are quite quick but what do you say we kick it up a notch?" Cell said as he dashed towards Gohan again but this time, he was much faster and he managed to land a blow on Gohan on his first try. He didn't just stop there. One fist became two, two fists became three and then three became one thousand. He proceeded with a kick to the abdomen that sent him crashing down on the ground.
Kaiser watched uneasily but he knew Gohan had a lot of fight left in him. "Come on Gohan." He thought hopefully.
Soon after crashing down, Gohan jumped out of the rubble of rocks with a stern face. He wasn't injured a bit but you could tell that he too was surprised by Cell's sudden power up.
"Tell me Gohan, how fast can you dodge?" Cell asked as he stuck out a finger and took aim at the demi Saiyan. Gohan looked at him curiously but then in an instant a pink laser shot out of Cell's finger and then in the last second, Gohan dodged it.
"Watch out Gohan! That's Frieza's attack!" Piccolo warned his pupil.
Gohan acknowledged the heads up and proceeded to dodge the rest of the lasers but then in an instant Cell appeared in front of Gohan delivering a strong punch that he blocked in the last second. Cell then released tons of more punches and kicks that were blocked with great difficulty. The two took the fight into the air where they exchanged Ki blasts and more punches and kicks. It was obvious that Cell had the upper hand. He didn't seem too tired as where Gohan was starting to show signs of fatigue.
Kaiser clenched his fists in frustration. "Why is Goku letting him fight? Can't he tell that Gohan can't beat him? Wait a minute. He said that Gohan was stronger than me but he isn't. What was that supposed to mean?" He thought to himself as he was starting to lose his temper.
"Calm down Kaisy. You can't lose your cool now." Brila said sternly. Kaiser nodded and took a deep breath. If it weren't for Brila, he would be throwing a tantrum right now.
"Come now Gohan. I am sure, you have more to offer than just that. If you don't do something now, I'll kill your friends." He said as he tried to land a blow on the demi Saiyan.
For a moment Gohan felt his anger swell and then he managed to find an opening that led him to proceed with a roundhouse kick on the side of Cell's face that sent him crashing down the ground. Cell fell on his back with a little blood dripping from his mouth. Cell slowly got up and wiped the blood of his face and then looked at the demi Saiyan with a rather calm expression.
"This is still not enough." Piccolo growled. "Goku! Make Gohan forfeit before it's too late!" He pleaded hoping that his former enemy would agree but to his despair he took no action. "FINE! If you won't do anything, I will!" Piccolo yelled as he began to take off his weighted clothing.
"You'll do no such thing Piccolo. You haven't trained him inside the Hyperbolic Time chamber, I have and I know what he's capable of. He'll win." Goku said coolly making Piccolo take a step back.
"Goku…you fool…" Piccolo thought to himself as he gritted his teeth in despair.
"That actually hurt Gohan. It seems as if I am getting to your head but I won't let that go unpunished." He said as he quickly dashed towards Gohan and enveloped him into a bear hug. He began to crush the life out of the demi Saiyan. He didn't want to kill him instantly. That would just ruin the fun and he still wanted to see that hidden power Goku was going on about. Gohan let out an agonizing yell that deafened the ears of those who knew that he was in trouble.
"Damn it! Gohan!" Kaiser yelled as his energy began to rise.
"GOKU! Look at him!" Trunks yelled. Goku, who had a smile not too long ago, now had an unsure frown.
"What's going on? Gohan should've unleashed his power right now! Was I wrong? Oh no…This is my fault." Goku thought as his hopes were starting to extinguish. Then he heard another yell of pain from his son. He had enough now. He wasn't gonna stand by and just do nothing now. He needed to help him. "Krillen! Give me a senzu bean!" Goku called out to the bald monk.
"It's about time." Krillen replied cheerily as he began to take a bean out of the bag. However he stopped his movements when he saw Cell drop Gohan's body on the ground.
Kaiser clenched his fists tightly when he saw Gohan's body drop to the ground. He was breathing heavily and it those cuts and bruises just made it worst.
"Stubborn boy. You refuse to fight back despite all the pain I inflict on you. Perhaps you respond better to the pain of your friends." Cell said evilly. Gohan shot his eyes open at this and slowly looked up and watched Cell as he flew off to the Z-Fighters.
"Wait! Stop!" Gohan exclaimed but it was no use. Cell was already there.
"He landed in front of Krillen and he raised an arm, striking immense fear into the bald monk. Krillen closed his eyes when Cell moved his hand. He reopened them to find out that Cell had stolen the senzu beans. He gave Krillen a smirk and simply flew off.
"Oh no! He took the senzu beans!" Krillen yelled.
"Who gave it to this useless baldy anyway?" Vegeta hissed.
"Hey…"
"Silence!"
"Oh no! I should've taken one when I had the chance." Goku whimpered.
Cell looked down at the bag of senzu beans with a smirk of delight and then he resumed his gaze at Gohan. "You see this Gohan. Your beloved senzu beans are now mine. Now I am going to use friends to get that hidden power out and if they end up dead, you will be to blame for being so stubborn."
"No please! Don't! I don't know what will happen if I release my power!" Gohan yelped.
"Oh believe me Gohan. After I am done playing with you, I'll kill you." He said as he turned around to face the Z-Fighters who were standing on a cliff not too far away.
"Everyone! Get ready! Cell's about to make his move!" Piccolo growled as he took off his weighted clothing.
Everyone stiffened at this and readied themselves for Cell's onslaught. Kaiser let go of Brila and turned to face her.
"Brila…Leave." Kaiser whispered as he looked straight into her eyes.
"What?" She gasped in disbelief.
"I don't want you to stay here. I can't bear to see you get hurt. Watching you fight Broly was bad enough and now this? No. Please run!"
"Are you crazy? How could you even say such a thing?" She said angrily making Kaiser take a step back.
"W-What?"
"We've only met a couple of days ago but the bond we have created is equivalent to a billion lifetimes. I'll never leave you. Either I live with you or die with you. I won't ever leave your side, even if you want me too." Brila said as her anger turned into a warm smile. Kaiser looked at her with wide eyes but then he too transformed that frown of confusion to a smile of pride.
"Thank you Brila. I am so sorry for even considering such a thing. I can be a fool at times." He said as he hugged her tightly. She returned the hug with passion and then the two parted and readied themselves for Cell's onslaught.
Vegeta looked at the two with a proud smile. "So young yet so devoted to each other. The girl has surprised me. She'll be a fine mate for my son." He thought to himself with a smirk of pride.
"I won't let you hurt them!" Gohan yelled as he jumped at Cell with the intention to hurt him any way he could but he was just kicked away easily by the green monster.
"So Gohan, we still haven't gotten you mad. Let's try another method of persuasion." He said as he turned back to the Z-Fighter. "Let's see…how many are there? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight and nine. No problem there." He said as he took a stance. The tip of his pointy tail expanded just like it was when he absorbed 17 and 18. He let out a soft yell as the Z-Fighters saw his body twitch slightly.
"What is he doing now?" Kaiser gasped as he saw the weird gestures Cell was making.
Then in rapid succession, nine objects got spat out of Cell's tail. The Z-Fighters watched in horror as those things had tremendous power levels. The next thing they knew, they heard gigging and when their enhanced eye sight caught a glimpse of these new life forms, they were shocked to the core. They were mini Cells! Just in blue color.
"What in the name of Dende are those things?" Piccolo gasped.
"Now my children. Those people up there are your enemies. Go play with them." He said as he pointed to the Z-Fighters and then without warning, the Cell Juniors. dashed towards their enemies.
"Everyone! Be on guard! They might be small but they're very strong!" Goku warned.
Vegeta, Kaiser, Brila and Trunks burst into their Super Saiyan forms and readied themselves for battle. Tien and Yamcha didn't want to get involved but they had no choice now. All of them took their stance and prepared themselves. It didn't take the Cell Juniors too long to find their opponents.
"Grr. You stupid little bug!" Kaiser hissed as he unleashed a fury of punches that were either blocked or dodged.
"Hihihihihi" The Cell Jr. muttered as he jumped over Kaiser's death punch and right after dodging it, he planted a right hook on Kaiser's face but Kaiser took the pain and punched back sending the Cell Jr. flying a couple of meters away but he quickly reappeared in front of Kaiser and kicked him on the side of his rib cage sending him crashing down onto the ground. He wasn't the only getting beaten up, the rest of the Z-Fighters were having a hard time too.
Gohan watched everything from a distance. He felt his heart drop to his stomach when he saw his father and his best friends beaten down. They were trying but it wasn't good enough. A yell from Kaiser made him want to die. "Why did you have to do this dad? Why did you count on me so much? If you're so sure I have all this power then tell me how to release it! I want to save everyone but I can't! I don't know how! Help me! Kaiser! Brila! Dad! I can't do this alone!" He thought to himself as he watched his friends and family fall before the might of the Cell Juniors.
"That's it! I will not be toyed with! FINAL FLASH!" Vegeta yelled out as he shot out a yellow blast from his hands. The Cell Junior just watched as the blast approached it and then to everyone's horror, he just blocked it and then swatted it away.
"What are those things?" Vegeta asked in disbelief and then he felt a sharp pain in his gut and when he looked down, he saw Cell Junior kneeing him into his gut.
Trunks was also having a hard time as he tried his best to defend against the wrath of Cell Junior but unfortunately it found an opening in Trunks's defense and so proceeded with a right hook that sent Trunks flying.
For Goku, it was the worst because he was already tired and injured from his fight with Cell. He could've beaten Cell Junior but he was too tired. He also fell before shortly after his fellow Saiyans.
Brila was trying her best to keep up with her opponent but she was easily beaten but the Cell Junior didn't stop just there. It tortured her more and more. Kaiser watched from a distance as she was getting beaten up and that fueled him with rage but even that didn't help him against his opponent.
With a powerful roundhouse kick Kaiser was thrown onto the ground. He tried to get back up but his body wouldn't listen to him. His vision started to go all blurry but his eyes widened when he saw Brila's body fall not too far from him. He could see tears rushing down her bruised face. She opened her eyes slowly and looked at him.
"K-K-Kaiser…h-h-help m-me…" She whispered but her voice was loud enough to reach his sensitive ears.
That was enough; he couldn't take it any longer. No one was gonna die on his watch and especially not her. "No…No….NOO! ENOUGH!" He yelled as he jumped up and exploded with energy. Everyone froze and slowly turned their heads towards Kaiser's direction. Kaiser yelled as hard as he could and channeled so much energy that it almost rivaled that of Brolys. His hair became spikier and his muscles became somewhat larger. The amount of power he was generating was insane. With a final yell he focused his energy and gritted his teeth and shot daggers towards his opponent. He blitzed towards Cell Junior and punched its head as hard as he could causing its body to explode. He then shot towards Brila's opponent and repeated the same feat. This struck fear into the other Cell Juniors but they prepared themselves for a combined assault on the raging Saiyan.
"Stand back." Cell commanded. "I'll take care of hi-" Before he could finish he was punched on his face that sent him flying back. "W-What the h-hell?" Cell gasped.
"GRRAAHHH!" Kaiser yelled as he dashed towards Cell to continue his assault. He unleashed a fury of punches and kicks which Cell couldn't block and then with a final roundhouse kick, he knocked Cell out of the Earth's orbit.
"*PANT* *PANT* *PANT* *PANT*" Kaiser gasped for air. That took a lot out of him but his energy didn't start to decrease just yet.
"W-What power! How did he get all that?" Vegeta exclaimed.
"Oh my Dende! He's beat the crap out of Cell!" Trunks gasped.
"Unbelievable." Goku said in awe.
Kaiser slowly approached Brila and poured some of his energy into her. "How do you feel?" He asked in a husky tone that made Brila melt on the spot.
"B-Better. How did you get this strong?" She asked.
"I don't know. Please check on Gohan. He might need some help and I can feel Cell returning." He said as he looked up in the sky. Brila quickly nodded and rushed to Gohan's aid.
"You okay Gohan?" She asked.
"Y-Yeah. I can't believe. Kaiser is stronger than Cell!" He exclaimed. "He can beat Cell.
"Yeah. He can. He'll save us all." She said as she glanced over to him with a smile but her smile quickly faded when she saw Cell land on the ground and he was not too happy.
"So you're the one with all that power." Cell hissed. "I should've known better."
"You also should've known not to come back but I am glad that you did. You're gonna regret sending your blue midget self to hurt us. What you're gonna regret more is hurting her." He said with a deadly voice.
"Cocky as ever eh? Do you want to know a secret?"
"Not really insect."
"Grr. I'll tell you anyway. This isn't my full power."
"I know." Kaiser smirked.
"Oh is that so? Do you know how strong I really am?"
"Should I care?"
"After this you will." Cell said as he began to power up to his maximum. Kaiser watched Cell with no signs of worry.
"He's still not a threat. Wait a minute…WHY IS HE STILL POWERING UP?" Kaiser thought to himself. He looked worried now and the worst part was that Cell hadn't finished yet. Kaiser watched in horror as Cell's power had gone through the roof and now with a final yell, Cell had finished. His power was so overwhelming that it made most of the Z-Fighters tremble in fear.
"Do you care now?" Cell smirked. His smirked turned into laughter when he saw Kaiser's fearful face. "Let's begin shall we?"
Before Kaiser could even begin to take a stance he was punched by Cell sending him flying. Cell appeared behind Kaiser and delivered another sickening blow and he repeated the same process until Kaiser used the Instant Transmission to escape this cycle of pain.
"BURNING ATTACK!" He yelled as he made several hand gestures. He then shot out a giant golden ball of death that was sent to kill Cell.
Cell merely smirked and slapped the blast back to Kaiser. Kaiser watched in horror as the blast approached him, there was no time to dodge and the blast hit Kaiser thus engulfing him and creating a large mushroom cloud. Out of the cloud, Kaiser's bloody body hit the ground with a sickening splat.
Brila held both her hands in front of her mouth. She had never felt so distorted or so helpless. She couldn't live without him. She wanted to help him but her body didn't let her. She was frozen. The sight of Kaiser's bloody body was torture. His silky hair was now dry and sticky because of all the dried blood.
Kaiser could feel all the pain of all the bones that had been broken. That made him want to yell in pain but he couldn't find the energy to yell. His shirt had been disintegrated when he was hit by the blast, exposing his scarred upper body. Everyone watched in horror as the Saiyan was now on the verge of death.
Vegeta couldn't watch any longer so he rushed towards his son's aid but he was cut off by a Cell Junior. He gritted his teeth and tried his best to fight his way through.
Trunks was not gonna see his brother die again. The last time it was painful enough but not again. He tried to overpower his opponent but nothing would work! They were too strong.
"No Kaiser!" Goku yelled out. He tried to rush to his aid but he was too weak to fight back.
Cell landed next to Kaiser's body and smirked. "What's wrong Kaiser? Not so cocky anymore although I must hand it to you, I didn't think anyone would force me to use my full power." Cell said cockily making Kaiser growl in anger. "Now now, no need to be angry. I am actually praising you but that doesn't change the fact that I'll kill you." He said evilly but then he noticed something most interesting. "Oh I totally forgot, you have a tail. Look at it, it looks disgusting. Let's fix that shall we." He said as he grasped his tail. He looked at Kaiser with maniacal expression and at that moment Kaiser's eyes widened in horror. Cell cut his tail in half with his hands and that made Kaiser yell out as loud as his lungs allowed him to. Everyone could feel their hearts sink as they saw the amount of pain and suffering Kaiser was going through and the worst part was none of them could do anything about it. The pain was equivalent to million broken bones. His body was trembling.
"Kaiser…no. Please STOP!" Gohan pleaded but his demands fell on deaf ears.
"How does it feel Kaiser? You used this same tail to cut my arm off and now I have used that same arm to cut your tail off." Cell chuckled. "Well time to die now." He said as he extended his arm but his gaze fell on Brila and Gohan who had tears streaming down their face. "In fact, I have a better idea. I think I'll torture you first by killing them." He said as he started walking towards Gohan and Brila.
Kaiser's eyes shot open when he heard those words. "NO! Stop!" He said as he got up, but he was quickly knocked back down by Cell.
"Stay down boy." He said as he walked towards the two. Brila and Gohan froze in fear. This was it, they were gonna die now. If Kaiser couldn't stop them, no one could. "I think I am gonna give you two a slow death and painful death. I'll stab the two of you so Kaiser can watch." He said as he extended his tail.
The two made an attempt to attack Cell but they were both flicked away by him. They were already low on energy but now they could barely move.
Kaiser watched in horror as his friends were staring death in the face. He glanced over to the rest of the Z-Fighters who were being held back by the army of Cell Juniors. There was no one there who could help them.
"Time to die." Cell said as he raised his tail. Brila watched in horror but if she had to die she wouldn't look at death itself, she would look at Kaiser because at least that way she would be looking at the love of her young life as death approached her.
Kaiser tried to scream, move, punch, kick or anything that could draw Cell's attention but nothing was happening. He could only watch as Cell would kill the two.
With a final smirk, Cell moved his tail with insane speed.
Brila looked at Kaiser and Kaiser looked back at her. He didn't want her to die, he wanted to protect her.
Gohan closed his eyes and waited for death to take him to the Otherworld.
Brila closed her eyes at the last moment. She could sense his sharp tail inches away.
Kaiser watched.
He shut his eyes tightly.
He clenched his fists.
He let a few tears out.
He broke the promise.
His life…was over.
