Dragon Ball: Rise of Nitrate [DBZ/DBS X Icejin OC]

Chapter Eleven: The Cell Games

[Nitrate POV]
-----------------//-]

Ten days have passed since the announcement of the Cell Games, and I have been resting alongside Goku and the rest of the Z Fighters. Between these days of relaxation, I had to remind Goku about the lack of Dragon Balls for use to use once Cell is defeated, and he was quick to instant transmission to New Namek to search for a Guardian who could watch over the Earth.

He decided to ask Dende for assistance, and to become the Earth's new Guardian, and the young Namekian agreed to his terms. With the Dragon Balls fixed and the Cell Games closing in, myself and Goku decided to spend some time gathering the wish orbs in preparation for the future. We left the Dragon Balls at the lookout and returned home.

Now, after everything that's happened, we are preparing for the Cell Games. I felt really excited for the event to come, and Goku seemed to have a similar outlook about fighting Cell in the tournament, but I was also curious to see how the event would proceed now that I was there alongside the Z Fighters. I was really excited.

[3rd POV]

In the Son family household, Goku was preparing his GI for the Cell Games. The Saiyan was stand in the middle of the dining room with a dark-blue wristband, that he pulled on his hand and over his wrist. He then proceeded to grab his boots and slipped them onto his feet before tying a rope around the top of the foot. 

Goku smiled to himself before standing up from the floor and pumping both hand at his sides. The Saiyan was very excited, as he always was when it involved fighting, and seemed to be thinking about something.

Goku: "All righty!! Time to go!"

As Goku prepared to leave the house, Nitrate wandered into the dining room and cracked his neck, producing a loud noise that caused Chi-Chi -who was standing behind Goku with a worried look- to visibly cringe. The Icejin looked around the room and noticed Goku standing in the middle with a large smile on his face, eyes sparkling.

Nitrate: "Hey, Goku. We leaving already?"

Goku: "Yep! Let's go!"

Nitrate: "Sure thing."

The two of them walked outside and began chatting with each other, barely noticing the worried looks they received from Chi-Chi as they reached the garden. Eventually, she rushed outside and stopped the two of them. Goku turned around with a curious smile, and Nitrate angled his head with a knowing shimmer in his crimson eyes.

Chi-Chi: "Be careful, you two. Don't get killed."

Goku: "I know, I know."

Nitrate: "Don't worry, Chi-Chi, I'll keep an eye on Goku and Gohan. It's the least I could do."

Chi-Chi looked towards Nitrate and smiled, happy to know that there was at least one person in the house she could rely on to keep her family safe. However, after reminding herself of her son, Chi-Chi shifted her gaze back to Goku and narrowed her eyes menacingly. The Saiyan flinched at the sudden change, and began to sweat nervously.

Chi-Chi: "Speaking of Gohan. He is NOT going to fight in these games! Right?!"

Goku: "Oh... Um..."

Goku, doubting, looked towards Nitrate with a worried glint in his eyes. The Frost Demon shrugged his shoulders and grinned knowingly, which earned a small smile from Goku as he turned his head back towards Chi-Chi. The woman was standing with her fists raised in the air, as if contemplating punching her husband in the face.
