Infinite Attack Power!! The God of Destruction, Cell, Is Born

The entire area around the island is completely dark, as if day has turned to night prematurely. Lightning strikes all over, and a green dome of energy surrounds the island. The ocean around the island is choppy. Waterspouts form. Three waterspouts surround the island, enclosing it in a triangle. Another lightning bolt strikes at the dome. In the center of the green dome is a small, bright light.

Trunks and Kuririn stand helpless, watching Cell transform. Cell is enclosed in a mini-green dome, glowing brightly. Energy flows freely over the surface of the barrier around him. Trunks and Kuririn stare in wide eyed astonishment. Kuririn's mouth gapes open. Number 16 stands right beside the barrier, staring at it with amazement. Vegeta hovers above Cell. His eyes glow, and he grins, anticipating the fight. "You'll soon become a whole body. Don't let me down." The barrier is so thick and powerful that Cell can't even be seen through it anymore. Number 16 slowly steps back. Kuririn, "What?" Trunks continues to watch in silence. Number 16 falls to his knees. Kuririn looks over at him. "I'm a good-for-nothing. I didn't even destroy Number 18." He shuts his eyes and looks away.

Finally, Cell's silhouette can be seen again through the barrier. Trunks, "Damn it!" He shakes his head violently and pictures everyone he knows dead. Bulma, as well as some Z Senshi who aren't even recognizable due to decapitation and similar dress. And at the center of it all, Cell grins. His eyes glow blood red. Trunks returns to the present. "Damn it, I won't let you go back to the future!" His ki flares up and he shoots into the sky, then flies back down. He goes straight for Cell, but the barrier alone is enough to throw him completely away. He lands and stares in horror as the birth of Perfect Cell progresses.

Kuririn gasps. Number 16 stares on in silence. Finally, the green barrier dies away. It's replaced by a bright golden light, and at the center, surrounding Cell, is a white light. It flashes green briefly. From directly above the island, the golden light is seen sitting at the center of the island, surrounded by the larger green dome that had engulfed the island. The golden light expands and grows stronger. Vegeta is excited about the upcoming fight.

A huge wave crashes down on Kame House. Muten Roshi, "I never thought it would turn out this way!" He stands with his back to the door, holding it up while water leaks through the sides. He's already knee-deep in water. Chichi floats by. "Muten Roshi-sama, if this goes on, this house will be washed away. We must run away as soon as possible." A thump comes from within a suitcase riding on Chichi's little island. The suitcase bursts open and Oolong sits up. "Right. Cell and Vegeta are both too powerful. We'll inevitably get involved." Chichi shuts the suitcase.

Yamucha desperately tries to pump water out. "It's useless to run. This will spread out to every corner of the Earth. It's the same no matter where you run." Chaouzu, "The Earth will be destroyed!" Muten Roshi grunts as another wave crashes upon the house.

A bright light is seen on a point on the Earth from space. The Earth is shown from farther out. A dark shadow slowly creeps over it. Soon, most of the Earth is in shadows. Vegeta grins in anticipation. Trunks and Kuririn stare at the bright light. Finally, all of the light dies away. The only light remaining from the transformation is the light emitted by the glowing body of Perfect Cell. That fades away, and the entire area is shrouded in darkness.

The island is shown from afar, where the green dome suddenly springs back up. Its light grows in intensity and the dome quickly expands outward, surpassing its original size. The light covers an enormous area and extends straight out into space as a column of golden light. It expands further and further out, then fades away, only to be replaced by a single point of light at the center of it, much smaller in size, but much brighter. Finally, even that light fades away. Daytime returns to the island.

Number 16 stares with wide eyes (well, eye... right eye seems to be damaged, and so it's always shut). Trunks, Kuririn, and Vegeta all watch as the transformation completes. At the center is a small crater, and at the center of that is a glowing green cocoon of light that surrounds Cell and still bathes the surrounding area in green light. Vegeta smiles. "Hm. It's finally done." Perfect Cell stands before them, emitting a bright green light.

Chichi hangs clothing and Oolong out to dry in front of Kame House. Yamucha, "The atmosphere has finally stopped vibrating." Oolong, "We're saved." Kamsennin wrings out his orange jacket. "It's only the beginning now. Chichi, Chaouzu, and Oolong all cry out in surprise and fear. Yamucha, "Muten Roshi-sama..." Roshi looks up at the sky. "The real horror will soon begin."

Bulma stares down at the Earth in amazement. Piccolo's expression is enough to tell us how he feels about what Vegeta has done, but he states the recent event for us anyway. "Cell has become a whole body." Bulma gasps and looks over to Tenshinhan, who nods in affirmation. Bulma, "Why? Didn't Kuririn use my controller?" She gasps and looks up to Piccolo. "Kuririn smashed the controller himself." She screams. "Why?!" Chibi Trunks begins to cry. Piccolo clenches a fist. "Vegeta is really responsible for all of this." His cape begins to billow out behind him.

Perfect Cell hovers above the ground. Vegeta stares down at him, smiling. Cell's feet barely touch down, then he bounces back up. Kuririn stares at him in shock. Number 16 climbs to his feet. Trunks, of course, stands there silently. We're finally given a good view of Cell that doesn't involve glowing and green light.

Cell's tail is now gone. It's been pulled up and into his body, so that only the little needle at the end remains where his tail used to start. His black and shiny wings shield the stump of a tail from harm. His feet finally touch down again and he lands. His lower legs (as in, shin and calf) are black, and above that is the normal green with black spots skin. His chest and shoulders are black, as if he were wearing a black breastplate. He clenches a fist. A better view is shown of his upper torso. It expands out a bit. He lifts his head and stands upright. He looks much more human, aside from the wings, tail stump, and the V-shaped thing on his head. He simply stands in silence.

Clocks tick. A petal falls from a flower in a vase. Son Gohan screams and flies back. Goku stands over him and Gohan tries to dodge an attack that never comes. "Are you alright, Gohan?" Son Goku holds his hand out to help his son up. Gohan stares at him. Goku laughs and looks down at him. Gohan climbs to his feet without his father's help. He begins to raise his ki. "Gohan..." Gohan jumps into the air. He flies down to attack Goku, but Goku blocks and/or dodges every hit Gohan throws. He swings around and trips Gohan. Gohan jumps up and forms a ki blast, but doesn't throw it. "Piccolo-san once told me that you cannot be my master. You're too gentle." With that, he throws the blast. Goku catches it and throws it back. Gohan jumps over it. "You're not..." He attacks, Goku blocks. "Harsh enough!" He throws another kick and comes up empty-handed. "You can tell by looking at me..." He flips back and lands. "...who is over protected!" He leaps forward again. Goku throws his knee up to block the attack, and Gohan flips back off the knee. Goku throws a hit this time, but Gohan blocks it. "Am I finally understood?" He jumps forward to attack, but Goku jumps out of the way and knees Gohan in the stomach. Gohan falls to the ground and bounces away, then springs off his hands back up to his feet. He forms a ki blast. "I was spoiled by you!" Goku catches the blast. He jumps forward and throws it back, but Gohan jumps out of the way. "Father, please do it like you want to kill me. Even if I really die, at least I gain that strength." Goku stares at him. "Otherwise, my level can never excel yours."

Son Goku turns Super Saiya-jin. The force of the sudden power up throws Gohan back. Goku jumps into the air. Gohan, "I don't mind if I have to die." He climbs to his feet. "If I don't gain the real power, I can never become a Super Saiya-jin." Goku looks down at Gohan, then cups his hands together and pulls them over to his side. "Ka...! Me...! Ha...! Me...!" Each time Goku calls out a syllable of the attack name, a quick cut to Gohan is shown, then back to Goku. The ki forms into a ball in the cup of his hands. "HA!" He throws the ki blast at Son Gohan. Gohan holds out his hands and catches it. He gains no ground against it, but succeeds in keeping it from killing him. "I won't run away!" He struggles against the ki blast, and on the other side, Son Goku continues to pump more ki into it.

"I was spoiled. Then I was so..." Gohan stares up fearfully at Nappa. Piccolo, "Gohan, now is the time to strike!" Gohan simply watches Nappa fly at him. A saibaman self-destructs, killing Yamucha. Chaouzu self-destructs. Gohan stares wide eyed. Tenshinhan throws a one-handed Kikohou and dies. Nappa flies at Gohan still. He shuts his eyes. "Then I was so..." Rikumu appears behind him and attacks. Gohan sails away. Rikumu appears above him and starts punching him. Gohan bounces away. He throws a ki blast at Rikumu, but Rikumu simply blows it away back at him. Gohan jumps into the air to dodge, and Rikumu appears beside him. He smacks Gohan in the face. Gohan's head twists back and his tongue flies out. "Then I was so..." Freezer throws a cut-through-anything beam at Kuririn, but it turns out to not be the same beam that had just pierced Piccolo's chest. Kuririn floats into the air, but not of his own will. He flails about wildly. Freezer sends Kuririn into the air. Gohan stares up at him and yells something, but no sound comes out of his mouth. Freezer closes his fist. Kuririn screams silently and explodes. Lightning strikes all around the island. Rocks begin to raise into the air. The ground splits. Son Goku's hair flashes gold. Again. Gohan stares in fear at his father. A golden aura swirls around the Super Saiya-jin, Son Goku. Son Gohan stands alone against a black background. "I can't be so weak. I depend too much on others." The 'camera' zooms in quickly on Gohan.

Gohan fights back Goku's Kamehameha. Finally, he screams. A golden aura surrounds him and he throws his father's blast straight back at him. "Hmm?" Goku dodges the blast. It explodes somewhere off in the distance, temporarily lighting up the area in red and orange. Goku turns and looks back to his son. Son Gohan stands before him as a Super Saiya-jin. He's hunched over and making the tongue-clicking noise, as if he's having trouble keeping the state. Goku lands a few feet away, no longer a Super Saiya-jin. "You've finally become a Super Saiya-jin." Gohan yells random sounds. "That's it. Next time, at the same state. Control your mood." More random sounds from Gohan in response. He suddenly fades back out of Super Saiya-jin and falls to his hands and knees. He stares at the ground, breathing heavily. "Well done, Gohan." Gohan looks up at him. "I'm sorry. Father, it's too hard." Goku, "What? Just improve, bit by bit. Hmm? Take a rest. Let me cut your hair for you. Your hair is too long." Gohan looks up at him and smiles. Goku kneels beside Gohan and grabs his hair, and they both laugh.

The activity at the island has finally calmed down. Cell examines his hand. Trunks, Kuririn, and Number 16 all stare at him in wide-eyed amazement. Vegeta hovers high above with his arms crossed. He laughs. "Though you are a whole body now, it seems it is no big deal. Even your size is smaller than before." Cell throws a few practice punches at the air. He holds his arm up and examines the other hand.

Tears form in Kuririn's eyes. He remembers when Number 18 kissed him on the highway. He pictures her face, smiling. He sees her against a dark background, falling. She screams and explodes into hundreds of tiny pieces. Kuririn gets angrier and angrier. Trunks, "Kuririn-san!" Kuririn screams and leaps forward. He throws a punch with all of his strength behind it. Cell doesn't even bother to dodge it. Kuririn hits him right in the back of the head with no effect. Cell almost seems to not even realize he's there. Kuririn screams and kicks him in the same place. Still no effect. He gasps. "That's too much..." Trunks stares in amazement. Kuririn screams and starts throwing punches and kicks everywhere, but nothing he does bothers Cell in the least. Every hit connects, but nothing hurts Cell. Cell, "This is the whole body? This is my Perfect body. I've finally got it."

Trunks glares up at Vegeta. Vegeta smiles and nods at him. Trunks powers up and attacks Cell with Kuririn, but even he has no effect. Cell doesn't even look up. "Great, marvelous strike." The two continue their barrage. Kuririn jumps back. "Go away, Trunks." Trunks jumps back. Kuririn forms a Kienzan. "Don't move, Cell. KIENZAN!" He throws his Kienzan. It spins as it flies toward him. The Kienzan hits. Kuririn, "Yeah!" His cheer was a bit premature, though. The disc spins away after hitting Cell and explodes. Cell stretches his neck, completely unhurt by the attack. He jumps into the air. His wings retract a bit. He spins, points out, pulls his arm straight back. Trunks gasps. Kuririn, "Impossible! Even Freezer was cut in half by the Kienzan!" Cell stretches, throws a few more punches and kicks, stuff like that. Kuririn trembles. Cell looks back at him. Cell flies to him through a series of disappearing/reappearing moves. He gets right up in front of Kuririn. Kuririn backs away, mumbling fearfully. Cell hits him once with a kick. Kuririn screams and flies into the air, landing a few feet away. Trunks gasps. Kuririn quivers a bit. Trunks, "KURIRIN-SAN!!" The screen fades to black.
