A Wonderful Life

Chapter 7: Day of Release

A/N: This is my favorite part in all the story I have planned, and you'll see why. Enjoy!


Vegeta had been very bored as of late, with the lack of events over the last 7 years of his human life and nothing to do than eat, train and beat Cell all day. But today was different, as today was the introduction of a new threat. Vegeta, Future Trunks, Piccolo, Shin and Kibito were currently flying towards the two henchmen that had escaped the Tournament earlier

Krillin and Gohan soon caught up with the group. Krillin pulled the five pills out of his pocket that Bulma had just given him

"Hey guys! Bulma gave me some spare Senzu Pills just in case things go south!" He shouted against the wind as he flew up to his friends gave each of them a pill, except Shin and Kibito

"So that's what she calls them! I keep forgetting the name!" Gohan exclamed as he put the pill in his pocket

"These are FAR more convenient than having to ask that damn cat for his always short supply!" Vegeta said as he put his pill in a small pocket at the edge of his right glove, a hint of pride enveloped him knowing that his wife was able to make something so powerful. In fact he used them all the time during his training

"So, you gonna tell us what you two are here for or what?" Piccolo asked the Supreme Kai as he put his pill in his belt

"Kibito and I are here in dire need for your help. But I have already began training Son Goku in case things go south." Shin began, who received a glare from Vegeta

"No shit." Thought an impatient Vegeta, who received a side glare from Kibito

"I am a Kai, one of the thousands of beings that oversee this universe. To be specific, a Supreme Kai oversees all the Kais, and a long time ago, I wasn't the only Supreme Kai around. There was one for each four quadrants of the universe. The Supreme Kai of the North, Supreme Kai of the West, Supreme Kai of the South, and lastly me, the Supreme Kai of the East. There is also the Grand Supreme Kai, who overlooks Overworld, Hell and the living world. For a Millennia we Supreme Kais supervised the events of the Universe with care...until an evil wizard named Bibidi created a tyrant only known by the name of Majin Buu." The Supreme Kai began his monologue

"The evil wizard controlled the monstrosity and destroyed many planets, inhabited and uninhabited." Continued Kibito. "Soon he set his eyes on the Supreme Kais, and after only one Earth week, Majin Buu killed almost all Supreme Kais minus Shin. At one point Bibidi tried to release Buu once more on Earth, until Shin attacked Bibidi and managed to kill him before he unleashed the evil Buu. Buu's container, however, has been sealed away within the depths of Earth, never to be found until now."

"So if Bibidi is dead, then what are you two doing here?" Asked Trunks

"Because before Bibidi's death he sired a son known as Babidi. And now Babidi has followed in his father's footsteps and found Buu's container. He is collecting energy in order to use the inchantment passed on by his father, to reopen Buu's seal once more." The Supreme Kai finished

"Of COURSE the next threat is conveniently already at our doorstep. Is there by ANY chance, anything else that we must know?" Questioned a sarcastic Vegeta

"You must show more respect to the overseer of the universe prince. We have seen everything that this group has done in the past and the milestones you all have achieved. But we also have seen the malicious acts YOU have committed in the past seven years, Saiyan Prince Vegeta." Said Kibito, who made Vegeta shocked

They've seen him do everything to Cell?! He thought that his acts would be something of the between him and Cell, something that he could hide beneath rug when he was done. What would Bulma think if she found out that he tortured her star project?

"What is he talking about Vegeta?" Gohan asked as he and everyone else looked at the stunned Vegeta

"That is unimportant right now." The Supreme Kai said. "And per your request Vegeta, we have a suspicion of Babidi. We are unsure that Babidi only has Majin Buu. But that is simply a hunch that I have." Said The Supreme Kai

"What do you mean only Majin Buu? I thought you said you were here because of Majin Buu." Piccolo questioned

"It is possible that Babidi has managed to seal another powerful creature in recent years, otherwise he wouldn't have as much confidence as to reveal himself and seek the hidden Majin Buu." Kibito responded

"Damn, and I thought today was going to be a normal day..." Complained Krillin. It was then that the group spotted a large desert field, and as everyone landed behind a cliff they saw that both Spopovich and Yamu were with three others.

One was small with a very wrinkly head that was oval shaped, he had large eyes bulging out of his head, with a brownish green skin color, with a bright orange cape and a blue skirt that stretched to his chest. He had a small black armor pad on his chest, with a silver buckle at his crotch with the same mysterious 'M' on it

The man behind him had a blue suit somewhat similar to Kibito's, only with a more open chest with a white scarf attached to both ends of his chest and curved around his neck like a hood. He had white boots and a white belt, and pink skin. He had also a black goatee and large, pointy ears

The last had a dark green jumpsuit with white armor around his chest. He wore white gloves and boots and his head was mostly a large white oval. His skin was light pink with yellow lips and green eyes. Both pink skinned warriors had the same 'M's on their foreheads as Spopovich and Yamu. Behind the three of them was a strange pod that was dug into the ground with a door. On top of it was a harmless lady bug. What would one be doing in the desert?

"So, who is who?" Gohan asked the Supreme Kai

"The small wrinkly man is Babidi, though he isn't physically strong, he's mastermind of everything. The biggest one is the King of the demon realm, Dabura. He is the evilest of them all, and only seeks chaos and destruction. And the one in the back is known as Pui-Pui. He's another minion of Babidi who can easily level planets." Said The Supreme Kai

"And do any of them have any special abilities that we should know?" Asked a weary Future Trunks

"Well, Babidi can control dark magic, and Dabura is part of the demon race, which can materialize anything from thin air and use telepathy. Both he and Pui-Pui can use ki, but Dabura can also turn anything he spits on to stone." Said Kibito

"Wait, you mean that there is a race of Demons?! And Dabura is the King of them?!" Said an exasperated Krillin

"If Dabura is the king of demons, then why is he serving Babidi?" Asked Piccolo

"Babidi can bend any evil of heart into his will, usually by using their twisted goals to do so. None of them consider themselves to be henchmen in any way, until he discards them once they cease to be useful." Explained The Supreme Kai

"Damn, I'd be a fool if I ever ended up being another tool for destruction." Said Vegeta

"Well, at least they aren't Androids..." remarked Trunks

"That's the ONLY plus side." Said Krillin

The team settled down as they began to look at the events that transpired. Spopovich handed the device to Babidi, and Babidi turned his back away from the duo

But without warning, his eyes turned red as he looked at Spopovich with a wicked smile. In mere seconds an ear piercing scream was released from Spopovich as his body expanded rapidly. Soon his body was a giant ball as everyone looked in horror. After a few seconds, his body exploded, vaporizing all his remains

Yamu flew away, but with a simple order from Babadi, Dabura aimed his right hand in the direction of the escapee. He fired a large dark red ball of ki that obliterated Yamu in the distance. The remaining people turned and headed into the structure

"How can he just kill his own partner?!" Asked Krillin

"I have only seen this level of evil from the Androids!" Stated Future Trunks

"Kami, this reminds me of Demon King Piccolo..." said the inner voice of Nail

"But you were never there." Stated the inner voice of Kami

"Oh right, I've just been skimming Piccolo's memories." Said the inner voice of Nail

"Can you guys be quiet?" Thought Piccolo, who wasn't too fazed by the situation. He's seen worse from Frieza and his own father, or rather what he remembers

Both Pui-Pui and Babidi entered the structure, but Dabura stood alone in front of it

"Do they already know we're here?" Gohan suspected

"Most likely..." Trunks stated as Dabura's cape began to flap wildly

Dabura suddenly flew and charged towards the direction of the team with great speed. Once he arrived, he held an outstretched hand towards Kibito. With a maniacal expression on his face, Dabura charged a dark ball of energy and released it towards Kibito, destroying his head and vaporizing it. Kibito's body dropped like a rock as Dabura laughed. He then tried to spit on Krillin, who managed to dodge the projectile

"You bastard!" Yelled Trunks as he leaped forward in anger. Dabura tried to spit on him, but he dodged in time as the saliva landed on Kibito's remains

Trunks threw his fist as Dabura blocked the attack. Vegeta and Gohan flew into the fray as they shot ki blasts at Dabura, but the demon kicked Future Trunks back and he swatted away the barrage of attacks. Just then Piccolo leapt towards Dabura as well, and stretched his arms to grab him. But Dabura side stepped to the left and suddenly created a curved blade from thin air that he used to cut both of Piccolo's arms off, making him yell in pain

"You all are a strong bunch of warriors, I'll even make an offer. You have one chance to leave unharmed, but all are welcome to try and stop us, even you, Supreme Kai." Said Dabura as he flew away, cackling evily. He entered the structure as the lone ladybug flew in, the door slamming shut behind it

"Damn that bastard!" Said Trunks as he stared at the stone body of Kibito

"We'll lick our wounds later, right now we have a job to do." Vegeta declared as he flew towards the structure

"Yeah, we must go on." Said a reluctant Gohan as he followed Vegeta, along with Adult Trunks

"Wait, we must exercise caution, who knows the dangers we will face!" Yelled The Supreme Kai

"Sorry, but we aren't the type to sob over our losses for long." Said Piccolo as he flew towards the structure. After a few seconds of staring at Kibito's dead body, The Supreme Kai followed as well, with Krillin in tow


In the sacred land of the Kais, Goku was currently punching the air with the giant red weights on his arms and legs that King Kai gave him. He was trying to go for 15 tons a piece without turning into a Super Saiyan

"GOKU! I HAVE HORRIBLE NEWS!" Said King Kai as he ran towards the hero

"What is it King Kai? Did things get out of hand on Earth?" Goku asked as he dropped the weights

"Yes! Cell's match up has changed since everyone left to fight Babidi, he is now facing Mighty Mask, Killa, Pintar, 17 and 18 in a Battle Royale, and his match starts soon! Plus Kibito was killed by one of Babidi's henchmen!" Said a panicking King Kai

"Damnit, I knew this would happen, but I didn't expect Kibito to die!" Goku stated

"We have to be prepared for anything, so stay still and search for your friends until I tell you to leave alright. If things get bad I'll need to give you my energy to teleport into the fray." King Kai warned as both Goku and King Kai began to sense Vegeta and the others, hoping that nothing goes wrong


"Aaaaaaallllllright everyone! We resume our fighting! The warriors fighting are Killa, Mighty Mask, Pintar, Lapis, Lazuli, and Trombón!" The announcer yelled as the fighters took their places on separate ends of the grounds, although Mighty Mask looked a bit awkward while doing so

"We should use our human names more often." Suggested 18 as she took her position a few yards away from Killa and 17

"Yeah, but 17 has kinda grown on me, plus Lapis doesn't sound very menacing." Said 17 as he was a few yards away from 18 and Mighty Mask

"Sure, anyway who are we picking off first?" Said 18 as she eyed Cell, she had some business with him

"I'll take the two kids in a dress and you can take Cell, I'll come by once I'm done." Said 17 as he stared at Mighty Mask intently

"Sounds fine to me."

"Of course they're going to play around with their food, those two together are the most powerful ones here, I'll get beat thoroughly before I finally get the ring out." Cell thought as he simply took his defensive stance, which was him putting his arms to the side, facing 18

"On your marks, get set, fight!!" Shouted the announcer as both 17 and 18 dashed with inhuman speed towards their separate targets

Killa and Pintar just stood and watched the events transpire with shock, before getting off of the ring in fear

Cell blocked the incoming punch using his left arm and used his other to try and punch 18's face. But she suddenly dodged to the left and brought her knee up to his gut. Just before the attack landed, however, Cell dashed backwards and then dashed forward to throw a kick to her stomach. The attack landed and sent her back a few feet, only for her to recover and dash forward as well. Cell and 18 began trading blow for blow as both blocked, punched and kicked to no avail

"She was always a bit sloppy with her punches, I can use this to my advantage to hold out a little longer. Matter of fact, she's a lot slower than I realized, I must have the advantage of power over her." Cell strategized

Meanwhile, 17 and Mighty Mask were fighting in the sky. Mighty Mask punched and kicked as 17 dodged and blocked. Soon, 17 grabbed a stray punch by the wrist and used his hand to throw Mighty Mask to the ground, he tried to recover, only to be met with a kick to the back that sent him hurtling to the ground

"Fight harder Trunks!" Said Goten in the lower half of Mighty Mask's costume

"Well what are you doing? How about we switch, you be the head and I'll be the legs." Said Kid Trunks

"Yeah, my legs are tired after soo much kicking." Said Goten as they shifted in place. Soon they flew back up to be met with the same level of resistance as before

Cell's guard began to break as more and more attacks would occasionally land, but with little to no reaction from the bug man as he was already well used to the pain of landing blows, curtesy of Vegeta and the two Androids

Eventually 18 dashed backwards and began shooting a barrage of Ki blasts, each created lots of dust. After a couple of blasts. however, Cell dashed forward, taking the full force of the following blast and punched 18 in the face, sending her away a few yards. Seeing that 18 was starting to lose her ground, 17 began to use more power as he started to increase his speed

"Wait, time out!!" Said Goten, only to receive a punch to the face and Kid Trunk's head got kicked as well

"Sorry kids, but it's time to end this." Said 17 as he brought both of his arms to his left side and charged his Super Electric Strike

Both boys panicked as they tried to fly away in different directions. 17 brought both arms up as the green line passed right through the open air in the middle, tearing the suit in half. It took a few seconds for the crowd to realize what had happened, and when they did there were two very angry mothers

"WHY YOU KIDS! GET BACK HERE!" Yelled an angry Chi-Chi carrying Marron

"Dang it Goten! Why did you go to the left when I was going to the right!"

"Me! Why didn't you go the other way!"

"Well, it was fun kids, but you two are out of the ring." 17 said as he put his hands in his pockets and floated downwards

"Man this bites, I'm going to run to get some cotton candy." Said Trunks as he flew away

"NO NO NO! YOU TWO GET DOWN HERE!" Yelled Bulma

"W-Wait for me!" Said Goten as both flew off. Both mothers left the seats with Marron and Videl as they went out to find the pair

17 casually landed next to 18, who began huffing a little more than usual

"Need some help." Said 17

"Yeah, bastard's too smart and fast." 18 complained, frustrated but not off the handle, she understood that the two of them could make short work of him

"Hm, then let's make this a little fun, I'll take his left and you take his right." 17 declared as he readied his fighting pose

"Deal." 18 said as she followed in suite. Both twins smirked evilly as they stared at Cell

"Great, let's get this over with." Cell thought, he knew exactly what he was getting into as he readied his defensive stance


Vegeta and the group were waiting for someone to appear through the doorway. They were standing in a large and empty room with only one doorway ahead

"How long is this going to take?" Asked an impatient Vegeta as he walked around the room

"You're just mad cause you lost both rounds." Said Gohan as he held up his hands into the shape of a pair of Scissors

Earlier Gohan, Future Trunks and Vegeta played Rock-Paper-Scissors to see who would fight first, Piccolo and Krillin decided to leave it all to the Saiyans. Trunks won the first game and Gohan won the second, Vegeta lost both

Before Vegeta could say anything in return, the doorway opened to reveal Pui-Pui. "Master Babidi allowed me to fight you all. Even if you manage defeat me, you'll have to get through many layers of the finest soldiers before you can reach master Babidi. This room will absorb all energy that is dispensed. But defeating me is an impossibility! I am the fastest in the universe after all!" He said as he moved around the room quickly

"Where oh where have I heard that one before." Vegeta thought as Future Trunks stepped forward

"Well, let's get the fight started then." Trunks declared as he stood in place. Pui-Pui moved a few more times before standing a few feet away

"I'll show you true power!" Pui-Pui stated as he suddenly spun around and flew towards Trunks. He threw a hard kick to Future Trunk's neck, only for him to grab the leg and blast Pui-Pui in the stomach, killing him in an instant

"...Guess I overestimated him." Trunks said as he casually walked back to the group

"Damnit Trunks, you could have at least built up his confidence some more." L Vegeta scolded

"Come on Vegeta, it was an honest mistake, now let's continue to the next level." Said Gohan as everyone walked to the doorway, except The Supreme Kai, who was very stunned by the strength of Trunks

The gang flew down through the passage way, only to land in another room that looked the same as the last

"Wow, I guess villains do stay consistent." Remarked Krillin as the doorway in this room opened to reveal a large green monster, it also had the the 'M' on it's chest. He had legs that bent backwards at the knees and three toes that had sharp, metallic nails. He had thin arms with the same metallic nails at the ends of his wrists, with three fingers and more nails. He had a wrinkly tail with a nail at the end, plus two more at the hunch of his back. He had several tiny points on his shoulders and he had a very beasty face

"Master told me to expect you...and who do we have here..." the creature said ominously as it began to drool

"Uh, hey Vegeta, you feel like switching?" Gohan asked as Vegeta chuckled

"No no, by all means fight, I'll just wait for the next one." Vegeta said, amused as Gohan stood in front of the beast

"And who, might I ask, is this guy?" Asked Piccolo

"He is the most feared creature in all of the galaxy, Yakon!" Replied The Supreme Kai nervously as both fighters took their positions

After a few seconds of empty waiting, both Yakon and Gohan dashed forward and clashed with each other. Both Gohan and Yakon started to punch and block each other's attacks, before Yakon kicked Gohan away as he dashed towards the ceiling, and dashed back to release his blades at the ends of his wrists and cut a tear from Gohan's gi

"Hey! I just got this spare gi!" Said Gohan as he toyed with the horizontal cut on his gi

"Damnit, Gohan is far outmatched! We must assist him!" The Supreme Kai exclaimed with paranoia

"Nah, don't worry about him, he just didn't expect those blades." Said Krillin

"How could you say that?"

"Because Gohan still has a lot of power held back." Piccolo stated as the room changed into a very dank and obscure area

"Huh, what happened, I can't see." Gohan stated as he looked around the room

"It's one of Babidi's tricks! He is changing the environment to give us the disadvantage!" Shouted The Supreme Kai

"Hahahaha! You have been taken into my home planet! You all can't see...but I can!" Shouted Yakon as he dashed towards Gohan

Yakon swiped his arms towards Gohan to cut him in half, but before the attack landed, Gohan jumped upwards and kicked Yakon in the face, sending the creature back a few feet

"How can you see!!"

"Me? Oh I can't, but I don't need to. Plus even if I do, I can do this!" Gohan shouted as he turned into a Super Saiyan, illuminating the area around him

At first it seemed like Yakon panicked, but he soon had an evil grin on his face

"...delicious..!" Exclamed Yakon as he swallowed the air like a powerful vacuum and began to swallow the light emitting from Gohan. In mere seconds Gohan reverted back to his base form

"The hell was that?" Vegeta exclaimed in surprise

"It's Yakon's ability, he can absorb light in any shape or form!" Shouted The Supreme Kai

Yakon's stomach began to glow and expanded slightly, almost like he was full

"Damn, then I guess I'll have to do something else." Gohan said to himself as he dashed after Yakon

"Well, are you hungry? Then come on big guy! Eat this!" Gohan said as he charged a Kamehameha

"You fool!" Yakon said as he opened his mouth up wide

"We should stop this!" The Supreme Kai said

"No, he knows what he's doing." Piccolo assured as Gohan continued to charge the beam, which Yakon awaited with delight. However, nearing the end of the charge Gohan quickly dashed after Yakon, and front flipped over him

"Kamehameha!!" He yelled as he launched the beam onto Yakon's back, launching forwards before exploding, sending bits and pieces of him everywhere

"And now you just made a mess of things." Vegeta remarked as he flew over the spilled guts and straight to the door

"Yeah, you could have just beat up like normal." Krillin complained as he wiped away a muscle from his face

Everyone continued to the next floor, the Supreme Kai was left stunned by the current display of power. They've just eliminated threats that killed many populations and destroyed several planets, but the way that they died with ease just left him stunned to the core. Maybe he was overestimating the threat?

The Supreme Kai simply floated towards the doorway in silence as he continued his train of thought


"Damnit! I knew they would kill Pui-Pui, but Yakon! He was my second best asset!" Babadi yelled in fury as he stomped on the ground

"Perhaps you can contract, another, minion?" Suggested Dabura as he meditated in the corner of the room, he was surrounded by a large green

"And, by all means, reveal to me who you have in mind?" Babidi wondered wickedly as he loomed over his crystal ball

"There is an evil Ki directed westward. It is less ambitious, but it will gladly assist us in our current predicament, and possibly even end the Do-Gooders in our ship." Dabura stated as he continued to meditate

Babidi was puzzled at first. How could he not sense it as clearly as the other two humans? Babidi searched westward as mentioned, and stumbled upon gold! How is this ki able to be so well hidden!? Babidi began to probe his mind of information as the image of Cell fighting the twin Androids in the World Martial Arts Tournament was in the crystal ball. It was malicious indeed! And he even had a method of gaining power, far more power than his counterpart, all he needed was a little, push...


Cell being continuously bombarded from all sides as 17 punched and kicked from the front and 18 did the same from the back. The only thing Cell could do was continue to receive punch after punch after punch with his remaining dignity. There were many dents in his exo-skeleton and there was lots of bleeding, but neither Cell nor the twins were willing to give up

After a few more minutes, 17 dashed backwards as 18 kicked Cell's back with extreme force, and sending him towards 17. He punched Cell's jaw upwards as he flew away, 18 then dashed behind Cell and she kicked Cell's back, and followed with an overhead slam from her arms as he was sent crashing to the ground

"This is pretty fun, can't believe we haven't done this in soo long." Said 17 as 18 landed beside him. He took a moment to feel his numb knuckles. Cell had a tough shell, but both he and his sister were able to play around his silly speed by caging him in like a dog

"Probably cause I have a kid and a husband now, they take a lot of time out of my day." 18 said casually, which was a valid excuse to stop torturing a person

Cell began to stand up, when he felt an intruding presence in his head. Immediately the presence began to try and overtake Cell's mind as he began holding his head, burning with a fire that only existed within his mind and spirit. It felt like a part of him was being extracted from himself and outwards like a strange virus. He clenched his head as he fell to his knees and panted violently, worrying everyone around

"What the hell is up with him?"

"Don't know, maybe we hit him a little too hard."

"Don't resist Cell, I know you want this. The power to show everyone your true self...to release yourself from your prison and have the most fun you could ever have!!" Said a voice as Cell struggled to keep his mind at rest. Suddenly, he received several flashbacks from his past...

Cell continued to scream as Vegeta crushed his larval body with his boot. Vegeta allowed Cell to recover his missing pieces so he could grab the little runt's head and bash it against the ground

"You cannot run, you cannot hide from your punishment!"

Vegeta's golden aura sparked as he sent various ki blasts to slowly eat away at Cell's exo-skeleton. Cell felt every piece of his body vaporizing as the energy attacks slowly ate away at his skin, feeling every last cell in his body give out in pain. Every. Last. Piece.

"I. Will. Break You!"

Cell grunted as he was constantly being slammed to the floor by 18 and 17. After a few minutes, the twins grabbed a limb from Cell and ripped away each arm and leg, then awaiting for him to regenerate to do the same over and over again

"YOU'RE WORTHLESS!"

Cell was bleeding heavily as both 17 and 18 punched a hole through his torso, head, arms and legs. There was a large puddle of green blood and on the floor, along with various hearts, livers and muscle tissue as the twins laughed at the sad sight of the bio-weapon in the dark

"Show to 'those heroes' what true fear is!! Now go, and claim your prize!" The voice said as Cell soon stopped struggling, and gave away his body as he allowed his mind to flood with pain, suffering, anger...and a new sense of vengeance!

Both twins shivered at hearing a very heartless chuckle that soon broke into histeria from Cell. For someone who never spoke a word this was a strange change of pace

"H-hey, I think we finally broke him." Said 17 nervously as he and his sister stared at the sight of Cell. He stopped shaking violently and barely stood with his head down towards the floor

"Both of you...shall pay!" Cell exclaimed as he lifted his head to reveal the ominous 'M' on his forehead. He had a wicked grin that sent chills to the pair, his eyes held a crazed gaze that could only possibly lead to murder...

Cell powered up to his fullest as his aura glowed a dark shade of red. He suddenly disappeared and then reappeared in front of the Androids and punched them square in the gut with both fists

17 and 18 were extremely surprised by this turn of events, never have they ever heard Cell talk, at all! Not only that, but somehow he gained a large boost in power that trumped everything that 17 and 18 had, they couldn't even see him coming!

The two recovered and dashed forward to begin the hyper offensive. Both siblings punched and kicked Cell in every inch of his body, but to no avail. It was wonderful! Cell never had the upper hand against both of the Androids. But this time, he couldn't feel a thing! Not because of his numb body, but because it all felt...soft. Almost like a child hitting wood, rather than two powerful hammers hitting a sandbag

Cell grind wickedly before punching 17's face with his right fist and 18's stomach with his left fist, sending both in different directions

He dashed straight towards 18 and punched her again, sending her further backwards. Cell continued punching her around until she landed on the ground, he then charged a Death Beam that pierced her stomach

He poked the air several times as he shot multiple thin purple beams at the Android. The attacks landed all over her body and her muscles gave away to the holes in them

"TAKE THIS!" Yelled 17 as he appeared at Cell's right side and brought both hands up, releasing a thin green stream of energy that cut through Cell's torso and left arm

Cell quickly brought his right arm to 17's throat as his cut body reconnected in mid-air. After a few seconds of choking 17, Cell threw him upwards, flew up above him and kicked his head, sending his body crashing to the ground as well. Cell shot after 17 as he rapidly punched his whole body multiple times before ending it with one final ki infused punch that sent 17's body further into the earth

Both Androids were barley conscious now, as Cell grabed 17's throat and threw his body next to his sister's. Both their clothes were ripped in several places and both were bleeding heavily as they lay defeated in a way that has never been done to them before

The siblings watched in horror as Cell walked slowly with a maniacal grin

"Oh don't worry, I won't kill you. I'll make you both pay for what you've done to me me by reliving your worst nightmares. And I'll do it again, and again...and again..." Cell monologued with a happy chip in his voice as his tail was sung atop of the pair, the end of it started to stretch to it's full width. The pair could only stare wide-eyed as they looked at the tail in horror. After a few seconds of teasing them, Cell used his tail to absorb them both at once

Cell exclaimed in glee as he suddenly felt an overload in Ki. He let out all of his energy while his body provided more from seemingly nowhere. Dust from the craters kicked up as Cell's body glowed a yellow tint of color, many bits and pieces of the area also began to crack and float in the air

Various seconds passed as Cell continued to release his energy, slowly destroying the whole square fighting ground inside of the arena. After a minute, there was large explosion that wiped away the remainder of the fighting ground, as well as the whole center of the arena

"You two kids were very irresponsible! I can't believe you two wou-" Chi-Chi's lecturing was interrupted as she entered the audience seating with Goten and Trunks held by the ears, when she saw that the arena had lots of dust surrounding it. The earth was also shaking and lots of people began to panic

"What's happening!?" Bulma questioned as she was carrying Maron with one arm, next to Videl

The eventually the shaking stopped and the large amount of dust settled to reveal Cell in a blinding golden aura, floating in the air that used to be the ground. But he wasn't the same...his his body was far less monster like and now more humanoid. His green dark green skin was now lighter, his feet were now akin to boots, and his chest area along with his wings shins were colored black. His long, outstretched tail could now retract and hide behind his wings, his face now had actual skin in a pale white color and his horn-like crown now reshaped to look more like a straighter crown. And finally, his strange 'M' sat on top of his crown

Cell looked at his hands in wonder as he admired his whole new body, it sported a more sophisticated yet threatening look, much better than his bug-like body that lost it's scary nature the second people were no longer afraid of him. This one labeled Cell's new personality as a whole, educated, handsome, and so very very sophisticated. He was no longer the tall bug that people would pick on, he has evolved. No, he was different. He was changed, a brand new being come to light

And the power that the form held...SO MUCH POWER! It was intoxicating, he knew for a fact that he could easily level this world with the flick of his wrist. But that wouldn't be much fun now would it? Plus he technically still had a contract to uphold, so he'll hold it. For now...

Cell smiled as he lifted his right hand and charged several yellow Ki blasts that he shot towards the air. Each one was large and were very far away, but they didn't disappear. Instead, after a few seconds, they seemed to get bigger in the sky

The crowd was dead silent as they stared at Cell in fear. That was the guy...the one defeated by Hercule seven years ago! But how is he not dead!

Chi-Chi, Bulma and Videl were horrified by the sight of the golden energy balls that grew more and more every second. Goten and Trunks were also scared, but Marron seemed a bit confused

"Now don't worry! The pain will only last for a second as your bodies disintegrate! All will be worth it in the end! I'll even let the others collect the Dragon Balls so I can do it again!!!" Cell shouted happily towards the trío at the stands, each woman unable to retort or respond

They were helpless, all they could do was watch the sky as the large spheres of ki grew closer and closer

"Auntie Bulma, what's happening?" Asked the young Marron as she stared at the yellow balls curiously. She was a little spooked by the panicked crowd. Where was her mommy? Where was her daddy?

"Yeah mom, what's going on?" Kid Trunks asked with a shaken tone of voice as he saw the balls grow. Was this it? Was there anything he could do?

"...Kids...I want all of you to close your eyes. I'll count to three. When I hit three, you all will open your eyes to see a pretty place with lots of flowers and a beautiful sunshine!" Said Bulma with worry and sadness as the kids glowed

"Really!" Asked Marron innocently

"Yes dear." Chi-Chi reassuringly as she too closed her eyes

Videl could only listen and watch the five of them in shock. Was this it?

Every one of them closed their eyes while the crowd screamed in absolute fear. People stormed away, many fell, and many prayed, but all was done amidst chaos and unrest

The balls of ki were now nearing the earth, a few of them already detonating and causing the ground to shake violently

"...one...two..." Bulma counted as a loud whistle noise was heard...
