Episode 20: Cell is Born
As our heroes were defeated by the androids, Piccolo says, "Ugh. I can't believe that the time has come again." Knuckles asks, "Wait… you don't mean…?" Krillin asks, "What are you both talking about?" Tien said, "Well… are you gonna fill us in or not?" Piccolo said, "If you must know, I'm going to fuse with Kami to gain more power. But don't think this means that we're allies! Knuckles and I will still dominate the world!" (Whoosh) (Whoosh) Back at Kame House, Yamcha and the rest were planning to move Sonic and Goku to a different location. The androids were on their way to kill Goku, when all of a sudden, they see Metal Sonic flying in the same direction. #17 said, "Hey, bub. Where do you think you're going? The scrap heap is the other way." Metal Sonic spoke up and said, "I am programmed to kill Sonic the Hedgehog and Son Goku." Android 16 stared at him angrily and said, "No! My mission is to kill Goku! Anyone in my way will be eliminated." #17 said, "Uh… there's a bird on your wrist. Lemme kill for you." "Noo! Leave the bird. I love these majestic birds." Back at Piccolo and Knuckles, they both went to Kami's Lookout to seek Kami. Kami appeared and said, "Piccolo. I know why you're here." "Can we just get on with it?! I wanna conquer the world already!" Knuckles said, "Piccolo… you don't really wanna conquer the world. You're just scared that your pride is at stake." (Sigh) Meanwhile, at the androids again, 18 wanted a new outfit, so she decided to rob a store. Back at Sonic and Goku, Amy and Chi-Chi checked up on them and saw them all snuggled up in different blankets. (Sonic and Goku snoring) While Krillin was watching TV, he saw a news report of a monster terrorizing the city. "This just in… a horrifying creature is terrorizing Metropolis City! I suggest everyone stay indoors at all times and… Oh, my god! What the f…?" (Static) Krillin said, "Guys! Guess what?! There's a monster destroying everything!" Trunks said, "It's probably the damned androids!" Tails said, "Let's go in my new X-Tornado 3, guys. I added a lot more space." Tien said, "Whoa! You rock, Tails!" (Tails giggles) "It's what I do!" As everyone got in the X-Tornado, Piccolo finally agreed on fusing back with Kami. "(Sigh) Let's get this over with. I wanna take down that monster that's terrorizing the city." So as Piccolo fused with Kami, his power increased dramatically. (Whoosh) (Bzzz) Knuckles said, "Whoa! Piccolo… your power is huge!" Piccolo said to Mr. Popo, "Please take care of the Lookout, Mr. Popo." (Whoosh) (Whoosh) When they finally arrived at the city, Piccolo said, "Ugh! I can sense the bastard's energy! But why is Goku, Sonic, Shadow, Vegeta, yours and my energy are fused together? Knuckles, can you find out who did this?" The monster that was terrorizing the city came out of nowhere and said, "Look no further… my brethren. Mm." Knuckles said, "Oh, god! It's so disgusting." Meanwhile, back on the Tornado, Gohan asked, "Why do I feel my dad's energy when he's right here?" Tails said, "Yeah. I can sense Sonic's energy, too. Vegeta's, Shadow's, Piccolo's and Knuckles' all wrapped up in one! What the heck is going on?!" Trunks yelled, "Tails, open the door, now! Gohan, come with me! I just remembered a huge mistake." Silver said, "Hold on, Trunks. I'm coming, too." Back at Vegeta and Shadow, Shadow was in the city trying to power up. "Dammit! Those androids are going to kill us all if I don't step it up! Vegeta, fight me with everything you got! You're gonna train me until we're strong enough to beat them." (Shadow powering up) Vegeta looked shocked and chuckled. "Very well. But I won't go easy." Shadow chuckled also and said, "Exactly! I'm gonna push myself beyond my limits!" (Vegeta powering up) Shadow threw a Chaos Spear, but Vegeta blocked it. "C'mon, Shadow! Is that all you got?! We're never gonna beat those androids if you don't pick up the slack," yelled Vegeta. Shadow posed and said, "Well, then. How about this move? I learned it from you! Chaos Galick Gun!" (Whoosh) Vegeta got struck and was reverted back to his normal form. (Whir) "Damn! I will admit, that was a pretty good move, but can you handle me at full strength?!" (Vegeta powering up) Back at Piccolo and Knuckles, the monster said, "So… are you both ready to be… inside me?" Knuckles looked at him and said, "Gay." Piccolo said, "Just who the hell are you, you psychotic bastard?!" (Monster laughs) "You're gonna have to beat me first." Piccolo said, "If you wanna do this the hard way, I'll be more than happy to kill you!" (Piccolo powering up) Knuckles went into his Super form as Piccolo took off his weighted clothes. "Special Beam Cannon!" (Bzzzz) The monster blocked it with his own Special Beam Cannon. Knuckles went in for the punch. (Wham) He punched him, but wasn't affected. The monster punched Knuckles, causing him to be out cold. Piccolo said, "Wait. What the hell is he doing? And why do I feel Goku's energy?" The monster poses and says, "Ka…Me…" "No! It can't be! That's Sonic and Goku's signature move! How does this creep know it?!" "Ha…Me…" (Piccolo grunts) "HAAAA!" (Whoosh) (Sizzle) Piccolo looks around and searches for the monster. "Peek-a-boo!" (Grip) The monster strikes him and sticks his pointy tail inside Piccolo's arm. (Whoosh) (Shing) (Piccolo screams in pain) "Shh! This is only gonna hurt for a few seconds," said the monster. Piccolo did an Explosive Wave to fend him off. But his arm was drained and powerless. "Just… just who are you?" The monster said with a smile on his face, "Very well. I am Cell. I am android created by Dr. Gero, designed with your cells. But don't worry, you're not the only one I absorbed. I also have Goku's, Sonic's, Shadow's, Vegeta's, everyone else's. I came from the future to absorb my counterparts, Androids 17 and 18. When I do, I can reach my perfect form and rule the world. Now… to finish you off." Piccolo said, "I don't think so! Now, Knuckles!" Knuckles punches Cell again. (Wham) Piccolo rips off his arm and regenerates. (Rip) (Stretch) "Now… take this, you psychotic bastard!" (Wham) Vegeta, Krillin, Tails, Trunks, Silver and Tien arrive at the scene. "Wh… what the hell is that thing?" yelled Krillin. Trunks said, "No! That's… Cell! He must've followed me somehow to the past. But how?" Cell jumped up in the sun and said, "Yes, I have all of your energy and now I'm going to reach my perfect form! Farewell! Solar Flare!" (Shine) (Everyone grunts) As Cell fled the battle, Krillin hands Piccolo and Knuckles a Senzu Bean. Tien asks, "Piccolo, what the hell was that? It had Goku's, Sonic's, Shadow's, Vegeta's and everyone else's energy. I feel…" Silver said, "That monster you saw… was Cell. He's an evil android created by Dr. Gero. The only way he can reach his so-called 'perfect form' is by absorbing the Androids." Vegeta went up to Piccolo and asked, "You there. How the hell did you get so strong in such a short time?" Tien said, "I know! You finally fused back with Kami, didn't you?!" Trunks asked, "Who's Kami?" Krillin said, "He's the Guardian of the Lookout, or in this case, Piccolo's other half. I can't believe you're so strong!" Piccolo said, "I just hatched an idea! Tien, you come with me and Knuckles to find Cell. Krillin, you, Trunks, Silver and Tails search for the androids and try to stop them. Break!" Will our heroes be able to stop the androids, or worse, Cell? Find out in the next episode.
