Episode 22: Semi-Perfect Cell is Born
Back at the fight between Cell and #17, Cell sneaks up and punches him dead in the stomach. Android 16 steps in and blasts him into the earth's core. As 16 took off his hands, he charges a blasts and says, "Cell, you will kill no more! Die! Burning Flash Fire!" (Whoosh) (Boom) (Sssss) As Android 17 witnessed the defeat of Cell, he yells, "Ha! Take that, you bastard! Try to come at me now!" But as a hissing sound went off behind him, Cell appears unscathed and yells, "Well then! Your wish is my command!" (Bloop) (Squish) (Slurp) (Slurp) (Gulp) (Whir) (Cell laughs evilly) Meanwhile, at the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, Vegeta prepares to train with Trunks while Shadow fights Silver. "So, Trunks, you ready to tap into your true Saiyan instincts?" Shadow and Silver already started fighting. (Bing) "Is this a joke?" said Silver. Shadow powered up and said, "Oh, now you pissed me off!" Shadow goes Super as did Silver. Vegeta goes Super Saiyan and punches Trunks. (Wham) "Hmph. You call yourself my son?! How pitiful! You can't even land a single blow! Now, come on. Let's work on your offense." Meanwhile, back at Cell, as he absorbed #17, he began to transform. (Crackle) (Crackle) (Whir) (Whoosh) (Crackle) "So… this is what my 2nd form feels like. I must say… I feel a lot stronger," says Cell. Android 16 punches him in the face, but Cell wasn't affected at all. Cell just stands there and says, "16, I am very disappointed in you. I thought you would be a lot stronger. Oh well." (Bam) Cell blasts him in the head, causing major damage to him. (Cell laughs evilly) "Now, 18… it's your turn to become part of me!" Tien yells, "I don't think so!" Cell looks up and laughs. "That's really cute, Tien. But everyone knows you don't have a chance in Hell to stop me. Now… prepare for death." Metal Sonic drops in and says, "Cell, I am going to join you. My mission is to kill Sonic and Son Goku." Android 16 yells, "Dammit, not you again!" Eggman drops in and says, "So… you're the one they call Cell." Cell asks, "Who are you? And why are you interrupting my conquest to reach my perfect form?" (Eggman laughing) "I'm here to aid you in your conquest. You see, I did some analysis with Dr. Gero and it says you need Android's 17 & 18. I believe my technology can benefit you." Cell smiles and says, "Ok, but mess up once, and I'll exterminate you." Tien said, "Eggman! Get out of the way or I'll kill you, too!" "Try me, Cyclops. You don't stand a chance in Hell." Tien powered and unleashed a Tri-Beam. "Haaa," screamed Tien. (Boom) (Boom) (Boom) Metal Sonic created a neon blast to intercept the Tri-Beam. (Boom) Meanwhile, at the Lookout, Goku and Sonic sensed Piccolo and Knuckles' energy depleting fast. Sonic yells, "Goku! We have to go save Piccolo, Knuckles and Tien! Their energy is dropping faster than a brick!" Goku replies, "Yeah, you're right. Gohan, stay here. I don't want you or Tails doing something risky. Let's go, Sonic." (Zip) (Zip) Back the scene of Cell, Eggman, Metal Sonic and Tien, Android 16 grabs #18 and flies off to another island. As Goku and Sonic arrived at the scene, Goku said, "So… you're Cell. I must say I'm disappointed in your power. Eggman, I should've known you and Metal Sonic were up to this." Sonic runs to Knuckles and teleports him back to the Lookout. Eggman pulls out a Chaos Emerald and says, "I'm sorry, Goku. Were you looking for... this?" Goku charges a Kamehameha at Eggman without hesitation. Sonic said, "Goku, wait! Killing Eggman isn't worth it. Besides, we'll get it back somehow. Trust me." As Goku grabbed Tien and Piccolo, he went back to the Lookout and gave them Senzu Beans. Mr. Popo walked out the meditation room and said, "While Goku and Sonic were saving their other friends, Vegeta, Trunks, Shadow and Silver have finished their training." As they all stepped out the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, Vegeta was all banged up. Bulma comes flying in and says, "I hope everyone's doing well with their training. I brought some saiyan armor Vegeta wore when he was on Earth for everyone." So as everyone else tried on the saiyan suit, Piccolo said, "No thanks. I can't train under saiyan technology." Shadow said to Sonic, "Stand aside, Sonic. I wanna test out my new form." Sonic replied to him, "I can definitely feel your energy rising. It's like you're not you anymore." Tien said, "I can feel Cell's energy rising fast. It's horrific." Vegeta said, "Well, then. Time to go find who this so-called Cell is. Shadow, you going to join in on the fun or just sit this out?" Shadow smiled and said, "And miss out on testing my new form? Not a chance. Let's go!" (Whoosh) (Whoosh) Trunks said, "Ugh! Why can't my father just accept it? He won't win if Cell is in his perfect form!" Silver said, "It's no use! This history is done for also!" Tien told them, "Wait! Cell hasn't absorbed #18 yet. Maybe there's still time for you two to go defat him before it's too late." (Whoosh) (Whoosh) Meanwhile, at Cell, Dr. Eggman explained why Sonic is a nuisance to him. Cell went on his own to search for 18. "18, come on out! You cannot hide forever! Do not test me! If you think you can escape, think again!" Eggman talks to Cell and asks, "Why don't you just blow up the whole island? That way, she has no choice but to come out of hiding." Cell nods and charges up a blast. (Boom) Almost half the island was gone. "Aha! I finally found you! Your terror ends here, Cell!" yelled Silver as he went Super. Trunks just stood there fazed as the thought of losing everyone again. Cell laughs and says, "Well then. Looks I'll have to kill you again… except there's no returning for you both." Vegeta and Shadow appears and says, "I don't think so, Cell." Cell laughs and says, "If it isn't Vegeta and Shadow. Care to join your friends into oblivion?" Shadow said, "No, but you can go straight to hell! You're going down!" Eggman laughs and yells, "I don't think so! Metal Sonic, do your thing!" So as Metal Sonic grabs Cell's tail, he becomes absorbed and increases his power. Shadow powers up and says, "Hmph! You think that little trick made you powerful? Ha! Let me show you the true power of the ultimate life form." (Shadow powering up) Vegeta looked at Trunks and said, "Son. Witness the power of the Prince of all Saiyans!" (Vegeta powering up) Cell tries to punch Vegeta, but Shadow kicks him in the face and charges a blast. Meanwhile, Sonic, Goku, Tails and Gohan enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber. "Well, Gohan, time to show you how to become a Super Saiyan like your dad." While our heroes are training to beat Cell, Vegeta and Shadow seem to have the upper hand in this fight. Can our rivalry heroes defeat Cell once and for all? Or will they fail and lose their lives?
