Cell was bored out of his mind and flew around without any proper destination in mind.

Goku's visit wasn't in his interest, and Cell hated that Goku tried to blackmail him. Even though Cell didn't have to comply, he wasn't sure what Goku could do if he continued his mischiefs. Cell needed to fight Goku, but what if he didn't show up? Goku not showing up to his tournament wasn't something Cell believed in, but he had to think about his time travel and the ways it could have affected this timeline. There might be things possible that seem out of the ordinary. Could Goku be more ruthless in this timeline than usual and ... leave? Isn't it Goku's goal to save the world, or could he be a different person altogether? Cell wasn't sure what to think of this situation. Goku was alive and found a way to train in a few hours like he trained in a month. How did he do that?

Cell tried to locate Gokus aura.

It felt like Goku didn't train because he didn't emit that much power. Does he take a break, or doesn't he care for the earthlings? Pointless to think of that. If Goku didn't take him seriously, then planet earth would pay for his ignorance. Cell needed the challenge and only Goku was able to deliver.

Cell wanted to kill Goku, not because of the red ribbon army, but because he liked to kill in general. His tournament would reveal if Goku was either being the hero or the challenge Cell had to overcome and prove himself his perfection. He was perfect, but by killing Goku, he would fulfill the purpose of why Dr. Gero created him. Everything Cell knew about Goku and his friends served to accomplish Dr. Gero's revenge... and Cell didn't care. If he killed Goku, then it was because he liked to do so, and not because of revenge. But what if Dr. Gero wasn't killed...had Cell to serve him? Like ... a puppet? Cell didn't see himself as some goon who would take orders. Not from anyone... not even Dr. Gero. How would Dr. Gero affect his life if he was around? Cell was happy he wasn't. He had to confess to himself that he most likely would act like 17 and 18 if Dr. Gero limited his freedom, and that angered him to no limits.

While thinking, Cell noticed that the temperature got colder by the second.

Looking around, he saw only water and icebergs. He wanted to fly back to his tournament ring.

How is he supposed to not get bored until his tournament takes place? His day was ruined.

Maybe he should train?

He flew faster now.

Without death, something was missing in his life and he didn't know how to distract himself.

Reaching his ring, Cell realized that a woman was standing in the middle of it.

He took a deep breath in.

Why do people have to annoy him?

He breathed out.

Please no.

Cell couldn't feel an aura, so this person wasn't even worth talking about.

When he landed on his ring, the woman greeted him. For a quick second, he thought about the other woman, but it wasn't her. This one had black hair and the other was a brunette. His anger grew. What does she want?

Their eyes meet and she smiled.

Why was she here? Why did she have the audacity to annoy him? Was she also a hillbilly? No. At this point, everyone had to know. How unpleasant...

"Hey, Cell! What about a challenge!?" He couldn't believe it. Is she dumb?

Slowly, he shook his head. He didn't want to talk to anyone at this moment.

"We should fight!" Yep. She was either dumb or stupid. He didn't say anything at all but she continued.

"You could train me." In Cells mind, she was both.

"Go back Home to your family and spend your last days in fear!" Where are these people coming from who had the audacity to disrespect him?

"Awww, come on, you're probably bored!" He didn't like her tone. She was disrespectful, and he wasn't fond of her presence, so he wanted to make her leave.

"You'd like to change that? I could crush you to a bloody pulp if that is something you wish for." He tried to fake an arrogant smile to show that he was more serious than she thought. "Haha, sure! I haven't had a great opponent in forever!" Enough! His power was not on a merely human level. He was above all. How dare she talk to him like that!?

His smile vanished, and he wanted to emphasize that she had to go now.

"Go home. You're nothing. I'm the sun, and you're a grain of sand. Look how untalented and ignorant you are. You probably can't even use your KI!" She looked annoyed. "I can! And I can even fly!" Was that supposed to impress him!? Pretentious! "Amaaaazing! You know the basics!" He rolled his eyes, but she had to respond with, "I can do more than other people!" His patience was running dry with this woman.

"I don't care what you can! Leave now or regret it!" The black haired wasn't that happy anymore and looked like a toddler who didn't get her candy.

She smiled and said, "Your girlfriend is sooo pretty. For how long have you known each other, he?"

...

...

Pardon me?

He was confused. What was she talking about!?

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"Well, the nice brunette that had been here before!"

...

...

Who?

...

It clicked.

Ohhhh, that one!

He couldn't stop himself from sounding sour.

"Ohhh are you jealous? Don't worry, that's not any of your business and now" He gesticulated with his hand, "bye bye!" The woman didn't move.

"Honey, this is your last chance! Get lost!" She didn't move, and that made him furious.

First Goku and now this. Why do people have to provoke him?

Why couldn't it be the other woman? At least she did as he said.

She scoffed and turned her back to him.

"You know. I thought you weren't that bad... but you're an asshole." And with that, he kicked her mercilessly. She crashed into a mountain and because of the impact rocks were flung around.

She was either dead or unconscious. Both didn't matter to him. Who plays with fire burns themselves.

Finally, Cell could enjoy the silence.

He hoped that no one would harass him. He still had Gokus words in mind. It shouldn't matter when he would kill humans. After his triumph, he would kill them one after one.

He closed his eyes and crossed his arms. At least he could rest now.

Cell heard footsteps. 'Please not again.' he thought.

"How are your day, Cell? What is your day?" He slowly looked over at her. "... How is your day?... ehm...hi..." He scoffed, "Ts. Why are you here? Death wishes?" He wanted to be left alone.

"I wanted to ask...well... I... ehm..." Unbelievable. Why did she have to show up too?

He took a deep breath in.

Well, at least she would go if he asked her to.

He breathed out.

She noticed that she annoyed him and said, "Look, I don't want to bug you, but I need to know the reason why I'm still alive."

Cell didn't want to tell her the truth that he believed she could gain information about Goku if she was related in any way, of course. He looked at her and asked, "Why do you need to know that? Be happy and go home." "But...that...it's...it's..." Stammering small something. Why couldn't she speak openly about what she had in mind? He continued, "I'm only keeping you alive, so you can witness my victory, and after that, I will kill you."

"Sooo...you are the best...but you still feel the need to prove that?" If she knows how powerful and dangerous he is, then why isn't she leaving him alone!? "I want to test my strength. Besides, my enemies might show up with newly gained powers. I want to know what the outcome could be." She looked sad to the ground. Somehow, he didn't like that but brushed it off as him, being irritated.

"Cell ...ehm...may I ask..." For the love of God, why couldn't she speak flawlessly!? "Spit it out!" She quickly asked him, "What happened to the woman I met here before?" Who? He was puzzled. She caught up on that and went into detail, "There was a woman who claimed, that you train her now? What is up wi-" "Lie." Cell was irritated at how anyone could pull such an ignorant lie. He was offended and looked to the mountainside where he kicked the black haired into. If she was still alive, he would teach her some manners. Why did they talk to each other? Are they friends?

With a sour undertone, he asked, "Do you know her?" "No, but I have been here two hours ago, and she happened to be here too. She asked me what I was doing here." He believed her.

"If she comes back here, I will kill her." He turned to her and added:" The same applies to you. Come, witness my victory and die afterward!" He wanted to scare her, but she seemed unaffected. The only thing she had to say was, "Ok."

What was wrong with her!? He expected a sassy comeback, but she didn't say anything like that. She is so defensive. Almost as if she wanted to stay on good terms. Or she didn't want to argue. Considering what he did to the black haired, her actions weren't wrong.

"Go home." He said it without a harsh tone, and he questioned if the message would get across anyway. He should have said something else, like 'frick off' or something.

"...erm... 'till your...ehm...see you..." What is that supposed to be? 'Just say bye and leave!' he thought.

She squeaked, "See you on Thursday!" You have to be kidding me."Wednesday!" She screamed, "Oh shit!" in a high-pitched voice, and it took him aback. The way she grabbed her head and the look on her face! It looked like she noticed that she talked to him only now. "Ahaa hahaa!" Cell couldn't stop laughing, and tears started to form in the corners of his eyes.

She didn't move nor said anything. He couldn't stop. Laughing felt so good.

"Return home!" He needed her to go. The woman looked confused, and Cell couldn't blame her. She probably didn't understand why he was laughing.

"Come on, go home!" She grabbed into her purse and looked around. She wanted to throw a capsule, but he quickly grabbed her arm.

"Wait!" He felt an aura pop up where the black haired had been. That was his chance to prove, that he wasn't just talking. He was able to kill mercilessly and if the black haired was still alive, he would butcher her so that the brunette would finally understand to not come back.

But nothing. The aura vanished. Maybe he was mistaken?

"I could have sworn..." He let go of her. At least the brunette wanted to leave without the usage of force.

She threw her capsule and a red capsule car appeared. The windows were down; it looked like she didn't take care of it. Speaking of which, the woman looked sad to the ground again. 'Please don't tell me she doesn't want to leave jet.'

"Cell?" What could she want now?

Seemed like it finally hit her, and she brushed whatever she wanted to say off.

"Forget it, see you on Thu- see you on Wednesday!" Her face flushed a bit, and she quickly jumped into her car. What did she want to ask?

She started the engine and loud music started to play. Very loud music. She was embarrassed and turned the volume down. Her face was bright red now.

"You know what Cell? You think I'm crazy, but I'm not! You don't know me!" she yelled at him and drove off.

Maybe it wasn't too bad talking to her. No, frick that. He didn't want to like her. He didn't want to like anyone.

Before she drove out of sight, she turned the volume back up. Gone she was.

Well, and now, Cell had to deal with the black haired again. She stood behind him. Her face was covered in blood and her clothes were ripped. He wanted to end it, but she apologized.

Ok... frick off? She made a pleading face, but he had enough, "Scat!". Finally, she flew away, and he could rest his nerves.
