Bye Bye, Everyone! Goku's Final Teleportation

Liquid pours out of Cell's gaping mouth. He falls to his knees and grabs Number 18's head. Kuririn, "Number 18!" Piccolo throws his arm out. "Wait!" Kuririn stops.

Cell stands up, throwing his head back to scream. Satan's group watches in awe at the events. Reporter, "What a surprise! A massive attack by the little boy has apparently caused massive damage to Cell! This is a big upset! Is that little boy the winner of the Cell Game?" Cameraman, "Ah, the mic still doesn't work..." Reporter, "Oh, right. This is the end of our broadcast. Thank you."

Wind begins to blow out from Cell. Yamucha, "What's that? What's going on?" Goku watches silently. Cell grunts and groans as the light wind blows outward in a ring around him. Smoke rises from his body. To the shock of the Z Senshi, Cell reverts back to his Imperfect stage. Cell breathes heavily as the transformation quickly finishes up. Trunks, "Cell's original body is back!" (note: this isn't Cell's original body, this is the middle stage. I think the fansubber mistranslated.) "He no longer has the Perfect Body!" Piccolo, "Gohan has won. There's no contest anymore." Vegeta watches in amazement, but is quiet.

Cell turns behind himself to look back at Gohan with wide, fearful eyes. Gohan glares at him. "DAMN IT!!" He steps forward slowly, the ground cracking under his feet. "Damn!!" He leaps forward to attack, but Gohan easily dodges the attack, and Cell hits nothing but the ground. Cell turns to him and starts attacking again, but Gohan easily dodges. He jumps forward and throws Cell back. Kuririn, "Way to go, Gohan!" Piccolo, "Do it! Give him the final blow!!"

Cell slowly recovers as Son Gohan approaches. He looks back with wide eyes. He takes a step back and falls into the crater, catching himself as he falls in. Gohan walks over and stares down at him for a moment, then steps on his hand. Cell grunts. "What's wrong? Come back up here!" Cell looks up at him in fear. "Damn it...!" He tries to pull himself up, but Gohan's foot finds his face, pushing him back down. Gohan's aura flares up a bit and Cell falls in.

Cell catches himself on his descent and stops, then flies straight back up. As soon as he emerges from the crater, Gohan hits him hard in the face with a shout. Cell flies back into some rocks; Gohan walks to Cell's new position.

"There's no point in continuing. You've already been beaten." Goku, "Gohan, don't toy with him! Do it now!" Gohan walks slowly and calmly up to Cell. Cell stares at him, frightened. "I... I won't... I won't let you!!" He hunches over and raises his ki, generating a strong wind, Perfect body or not. After all of the strong winds the Z Senshi have been through today, though, this one doesn't quite have the ability to throw them off their feet.

Cell's eyes suddenly look off to either side (damn my mind, I can't think of the word to use here, but it's basically the polar opposite of being cross-eyed). His body begins to grow; not in the muscular sense, but in the "way too much fried chicken" sense. Satan's group watches in confusion and fear. Reporter, "I don't understand what's going on! Cell's transforming again... Actually, he's swelling up, just like a big balloon."

Out on the battlefield, Cell is indeed swelling up. His legs expanded a bit at first, but have now pretty much stopped, so it's just his torso that's expanding, both vertically and horitontally. Cell is pretty much constantly groaning through the whole process. He holds up his hands; Gohan watches the transformation silently.

Trunks, "What...? What's he doing now?" Everyone watches in shock and confusion. Suddenly, Son Goku's eyes go wide. "Oh, no!" The bloated up Cell laughs. "This is the end of you! I will blow up soon. I will die, and so will all of you. The whole planet is going to blow up with me." Gohan, "What?" Vegeta, "Blow himself up?" Piccolo, "He's right. WIth his power, this planet will easily be blown up." Kuririn, Ten, and Yamucha watch in fear and shock.

Cell laughs in that same old evil, maniacal, villain way as his body expands. Gohan prepares to fight him again. "I won't let you do it!!" Cell holds up his hand. "Hold it, take it easy, boy. You don't want to be responsible for blowing me up prematurely, do you? Before everyone's had their chance to say goodbye..." Gohan glares at him, stunned and finally afraid. His fists slowly lower as Cell laughs. "We're almost there! At this point, even I can't stop it." Gohan rises back to his full height.

Kuririn, "No..." Ten, "What can we do? We've got to do something." Piccolo, "We can't... It's too late." Kuririn stares on fearfully. Cell bloats up a bit more. "It's almost time." Gohan recalls just a few minutes prior.
Perfect Cell hangs crippled in the sky, stunned and missing limbs. Goku, "Gohan! You're the only one who can give the final blow to Cell! Do it now!" Gohan smiles at him. "We don't know what he's capable of doing next!!"
"Is this what Dad meant?" He falls to his knees. His aura fades away; he smashes the ground with his fists. "It's my fault! I should have killed him sooner!"

The Z Senshi watch. Trunks, "This is it!!" Random views of outer space, followed by the Earth itself, are shown. A light starts at the top of the Earth and spreads down over the entire planet. The entire planet glows golden, which soon turns to firey red. Piccolo, "Earth is blowing up!! Damn it!" Vegeta watches silently, with a strange look on his face. Goku, also silent, stands nearby behind him.

Cell laughs. Goku stares out at him, then turns to everyone behind him. He smiles. Kuririn, "What is it, Goku?" Goku, "I've thought it over, and this is the only solution I could come up with." Kuririn, "Eh?" Piccolo, "What do you mean, Goku?" Trunks, "Goku-san?" Goku raises his fingers to his forehead and raises his other hand to wave to them. "Bye bye, everyone." Vegeta spins around. "What?" Kuririn, "Goku...? You're not going to..."

Cell laughs at Gohan. "Are you ready? This match looks like it ends in a draw." Gohan ignores his comment, and Cell continues laughing.

Son Goku vanishes. Kuririn holds out his hand. "Goku!!" Everyone else watches in silent shock. Goku reappears right next to Cell. Gohan looks up. Cell gasps. Goku glares up at him, then smiles. Goku looks back to Gohan. "You've done well, Gohan." Gohan, "Father..." Goku smiles at him. "Tell Mom that I'm sorry. I've been so selfish and given her such hard times." Gohan watches him in fear and shock. "Goodbye, Gohan." He turns back to Cell, who utters some sort of incoherent sound. Piccolo, "Goku!!" Son Goku vanishes. Gohan, "FATHER!!" Kuririn, "Goku!!" The other Z Senshi are stunned.

Kaiousama holds up his arms, screaming. "No, don't bring him here!" Goku and Cell appear on Kaiou's planet. Goku, "Sorry, Kaiousama, but I didn't have a choice." Kaiou, "But..." Cell, "Damn it..." His voice warps into some deep, roaring noise as he speaks. Kaiousama's planet begins to crack and break up. Bubbles and Gregory fly into the air. Kaiou watches helplessly. Lightning begins to surround Cell; he finally explodes.

Son Goku is engulfed by the bright, white light. Soon, it envelops Kaiousama, Gregory, and Bubbles. It flies out in all directions from Kaiousama's planet, and finally, as it begins to clear, the planet is revealed to be gone.

Son Gohan stares at the spot his father and Cell had occupied just moments ago, still in shock. His mouth hangs open, his eyes wide. Each of the Z Senshi's heads are bowed in grief and shock (except Vegeta's, of course). Piccolo, "He's... He's gone. I don't sense Goku's ki anymore." Kuririn falls to his hands and knees and begins to cry. "Goku..."

Tears begin to roll down the side of Gohan's face. He shuts his eyes tightly and screams. "FATHER!!" His scream echoes through all of the surrounding area.

Muten Roshi suddenly becomes more alert. "Hmm?" Bulma, "What's wrong?" Roshi, "I've lost track of Goku's power... and Cell's, too." Bulma, "You mean... Son-kun's dead?" Roshi looks away. She jumps to her feet. "No!"

Still crying, Gohan pounds his fists into the ground. Behind him, the only one who doesn't appear saddened is Vegeta. Yamucha wipes his eyes away with his arm. Kuririn, Tenshinhan, Piccolo, and Trunks all bow their heads. Satan's crew watches in confusion, unsure of what's going on. Reporter, "What has happened over there? Cell is gone. Cell and that young man suddenly disappeared. Huh?" He looks up. "Oh, that's right." His arms drop hopelessly to his sides as he remembers the mic doesn't work. Pizza, "Mr. Satan, what happened?" Satan looks down at her. "Huh?" He rubs his chin.

Gohan sits crying on the ground. Kuririn walks out to him. He pats Gohan on the shoulder. "It's over, Gohan. You and Goku saved us all." Gohan raises his head a bit, but still doesn't face Kuririn. His eyes are shut tightly. "It's all my fault. I could have killed Cell earlier when Father told me to. It was my fault." Kuririn, "Gohan, stop blaming yourself. Earth couldn't have been saved without you, right?" He smiles. "Don't you think Goku looked happy? He was so proud of you." Gohan looks up at Kuririn, surprised and saddened. Kuririn, "Hey, get up." He helps Gohan to his feet. "Let's go home."

A light wind begins to blow. Kuririn, "Huh?" He looks up and sees the unconscious Number 18 lying on the ground, still in the middle of that pool of whatever Cell was drooling. Her hair blows lightly in the wind. "Number 18." He runs up to her. None of the other Z Senshi pay Number 18 any mind, still grieving over Goku. Kuririn bends down and picks her up. Gohan looks into the sky. "Father..."

"I'm sorry, Bubbles, Gregory." Bubbles, Gregory, Kaiousama, and Son Goku fly over the Serpent Road to get to the afterlife's check-in station. "I didn't mean to get you involved in this." Bubbles waves at him. Kaiou, "I can't believe what you've done to me. I'm supposed to be the Ruler of everything, the king of kings, higher than Kamisama." Bubbles does a little dance on the way to the station. "And you... and you... Just for the sake of one planet, you killed me!" Goku smiles, "I've already said I was sorry. You're just too much, Kaiousama. I told you there was no other choice." He gestures with his arms as he speaks, and behind him, Gregory and Bubbles mimic his gestures. Kaiousama spins around. "Goku! Don't talk to me like that! Treat me with respect! Respect!" Goku, "Right... But Kaiousama, I don't see Cell up here." He looks back and forth. "Did he go straight to hell?" Kaiou, "Hmm?" He suddenly stops and turns around, gasping. "You're right... Oh no! He's not with us! Everyone is supposed to come up here first and be judged." Goku, "What does that mean?" Kaiou, "Cell isn't dead... He's alive." Goku, "What?"

Vegeta, "Kuririn, what are you going to do with that Artificial Human?" Kuririn stops and looks up at him. "Eh?" Vegeta, "Kill her, if she's still alive." Kuririn, "Well, she's... Number 18's not that bad." Vegeta, "Hmph. That's now how I see it. You guys have been too nice to her."

A light wind blows over the area. The light wind turns to a strong wind. The Z Senshi spin around. Vegeta, "What?" A giant cloud of dust surrounds the area, and inside, lightning dances about. The entire area turns blue for a moment. Vegeta, "This... This power is..." Trunks holds his arms up against the wind. "It can't be!" Piccolo, "Impossible..." The wind even blows back some of the smaller boulders. A familiar hand points out through the cloud and fires a gold ki blast. The blast passes by each Z Senshi as they watch, until it pierces Trunks' chest; he yelps and flies back, dead before he ever hits the ground again. Vegeta gasps in shock. Trunks hits the ground with a thud. Kuririn gasps.

"So, who was killed? Trunks?" The dust clears to once more reveal Perfect Cell.
