CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

I kick the metal pipe out of the way as we land on the remains of Doctor Gero's laboratory. The wind here was sharp and icy, like little knives cutting our skin. Krillin, Trunks, and I scan the ground for the secret underground laboratory.

"Aster, Krillin-san, please stand back a moment," Trunks says and he blasts the ground. We get the idea and do the same, causing the debris to expose the earth below.

"Guys, this must be it!" He says and we walk towards a hole with a ladder leading down the darkness. No doubt it. It was the way to the computer and Cell.

We jump down and approach giant metal doors that were surprisingly open. Trunks pushes them in and we enter cautiously. I feel the wall for a light switch and flick it on. Dim light fills the room and there the computer was, next to a strange long tank filled with green liquid.

"Rotten piece of crap! This is the computer, huh?!" Krillin says.

I stare into the green tank and I knew at the first look at it that it was Cell. He was small and shriveled up, yet to become a larva.

"Dammit, this is what has all the cells of the martial arts masters gathered within it? Me and Goku must be included in there! Just looking at it disgusts me!" Krillin growls.

"I-In time, this will become a larva, shed its skin, and become Cell!" Trunks says. "And then after that, he will suck out the life energy of others as he approaches his perfect form...all of it under instruction from this computer."

"Let's destroy this whole underground laboratory right now!" Krillin says to us.

"Hold on!" I say and I walk toward a desk with a pile of sheets on top. It was messy with hurried handwriting and diagrams.

"They're plans!" Trunks says.

"What are the plans for? This Cell guy?" Krill questions.

"No, it's No.17," I say and an image of his demonic facial expression flashes in my mind.

"I-If I have Mom look at these, she just might be able to catch on to a weakness in No.17!" Trunks says, excited at our lucky find.

"Yeah! That's a good idea!" Krillin exclaims. "Say, are there any more? Maybe the ones for Cell, or..."

"The rest of these are useless." I say, inspecting the papers underneath the plans of No.17.

"Alright, then let's bring down this underground laboratory!" Krillin says and we begin to tear this place down with Ki blasts thoroughly. Trunks finishes off the awful computer and we all glare at the cracking tank containing the unfinished Cell and do it in. Cell completely perishes and there were more explosions.

"Let get out of here, quick!"

"Okay!"

The fire chases after us as we run for the hole out of the underground laboratory and flames seal the entire place just after we fly right out. Krillin gives the hole a last Ki blast and we escape the detonation.
