Locate Goku. Another android

After stopping at a clothes store for 18 and losing the cops, we finally made it to Goku. On our way here, I and 16 detected a high power level stronger than the twins. Then it disappeared; something about that high power level made me uneasy. But as of right now, I need to prepare to fight Goku. 18 goes into the house and comes out in a new outfit with an annoyed look on her face.

"Empty! Goku's long gone. How could we have missed him?" 18 says in a sarcastic tone.

"Chill out. 16, 22 do you have anything," 17 ask.

"No, but I feel he is hiding his power level," 22 says.

I think the two logical places for him to hide is Capsule Corporation or the Island where his Master, Roshi, can be found," 16 says.

"Well, okay. Which is closer?" 17 ask.

"The Island is closer. Approximately 1600 miles to the southeast." 16 say.

"Alright, let's fly," 17 said, and the rest of the androids nodded in agreement.

We all took off, flying in the direction of where Master Roshi's house was. We arrived there an hour later. I was the first to land on the small Island and look for Goku. I then began searching for his power level, but I did not see anything.

"Yo 16, can you detect Goku because I'm not picking him up," 22 asks.

"No, he is not here," 16 say, and 22 let out an angry grunt.

Piccolo and the others come out of the house.

"Goku's not here. So I'll ask you once to leave quietly," Piccolo says with anger in his tone.

"Scary, hmm. Tell you what we will leave when you tell us where Goku is," 17 say.

"So just like that, huh? You think we will talk," Piccolo says.

"Well, yes, this can be very easy or painful, your choice," 17 say.

"Alright, if it's a fight you want, then over there. There is another island we will have more room," Piccolo says.

"Whatever, it's your funeral," 17 say.

"Rest of you stay here. You will only get in the way if you come," Piccolo says.

He then takes off flying to another island, 16, 17, 18, and I follow behind him.

Piccolo lands on the Island, and we land too.

"I'll take this one," 17 says, stepping up to Piccolo while rolling up his sleeves.

Piccolo then begins powering and letting out a yell. His aura was purple. Then it switches to a glowing white color.

"Something is wrong here," 16 says with a surprised look.

"Huh," 17 says, turning his to 16.

"This Namekian is not Piccolo," 16 says with seriousness in his tone

"Who is he then?" 17 ask with surprise on his face.

Piccolo then vanishes, attacks 17 without giving him a break, knocks him to the ground, and releases a powerful energy wave. 17 stood up, unfazed by the attack. After a couple of blows and moving to another island, Piccolo's stamina was wearing down, and 17 was damaged. All of a sudden, Piccolo looked up at the mountain, and his face was full of shock. I look up and see a humanoid creature with an insect-like feature staring at 17 like a snack.

"Damn it. It's Cell. I was so caught up in the battle to notice him," Piccolo said

I begin searching my data banks for the name of the creature Cell, and I see a file pop up saying. The profile says that he is the creation from the fusion of different cells from the strongest warriors on earth and villains Goku has faced. Thanks to absorbing my Father and 19, I see that Cell is incomplete, and he needs to absorb 17 & 18 to complete his design. I then turned back in when I saw that the creature had jumped down from the mountain and landed at the base of the hill in front of Piccolo and 17. The Cell then begins powering up while laughing evilly, and I see his energy aura has the soul of all his victims in it. I step back in horror, causing 18 and 16 to look at me.

"He's a monster. His energy aura contains souls," 22 says in a disgusted tone.

18 looked again and saw it, and was disturbed by it. Cell then powers up even more and creates a dust cloud, stopping. He walks passed Piccolo, who is in a state of shock, and stops.

"Oh, and Piccolo. Just one more thing. I'm warning you this time, stay out of my way," Cell says in a warning tone.

"You managed to power up even more than I imagined. How many thousands of innocent lives did you have to sacrifice, Cell," Piccolo asked.

"Oh, a few, but they should feel honored. I made them one with perfection," Cell says.

Cell then walks until he is a couple of feet from 17.

"You know we kind of in the middle of something here. So whoever you are, you'll have to wait until I'm finished with him," 17 says with his arms crossed.

Cell lifted us his stinger-like tail, not caring what 17 had to say.

"No, 17! Don't underestimate him! He's dangerous! He came here to absorb you! Move!" Piccolo shouts at 17 in a warning tone.

Cell thrust his tail at 17and at the last second, 17 dodged. Cell then repeatedly tries to stab 17, but 17 avoids them all. Cell then grabbed 17's arm and slammed him to the ground, bringing his stinger-like tail inches from 17's body. Piccolo then flew in and kicked Cell in the face making him jump back. Cell then let out a chuckle as he wiped his mouth from the attack he took.

"A surprise attack? Now that's just rude! Who is this freak, and what do you mean he wants to absorb me?" 17 ask Piccolo.

"I'll keep it simple. You're looking at another one of Doctor Gero's creations built by his computer in the secret lab. Only he's not complete yet; to reach the final form, he needs to absorb you and 18 into his body," Piccolo says.

"What was that? 18 ask.

"That information matches Cell's profile in my database," 22 confirmed that the information was correct.

"Yes, it's all true. Once I complete my design, I'll become a super being of unimaginable power the likes of this universe have ever known! Join me and help fulfill our Father's lifelong ambition to create the perfect warrior," Cell says while offering his hand to us.

"I've heard enough of this nonsense. Dr. Gero already created the perfect warrior. He's standing right here. Why would I join you?" 17 say with a confident smile.

"What you want makes little difference. Like it or not, you will be absorbed," Cell said in a severe tone.

"We'll have to see about that. Bring it on! 17 say while getting in his fighting stance.

"No,17! Retreat!" 16 shouted at 17, surprising him, and 18.

"His power is much greater than yours! You can not win! If we allow him to reach his perfect form, he'll not be satisfied with just destroying Goku. He'll destroy the entire universe!" 16 shouted.

"I agree he has no goal and will go on a power trip that will kill every living creature in the universe," 22 says in a severe tone.

"Heh, how about that? 16, you finally decided to open that big metal trap of yours, and it's to tell me to run away. Not a chance! I don't run from anyone! 17 say with an overconfident smile.

17 charges at Cell to attack him, but he dodges using his extreme speed, which is faster than 17. Cell overpowered him by elbowing him into the ground. Piccolo joined in at tried to kick Cell away, but Cell grabbed his leg and punched Piccolo in his hand, sending him skidding across the ground. I watched Cell walk to Piccolo, who was recovering from the last attack. Cell then kick Piccolo hard and sends him rolling on the ground meters away.

"18, you need to run now. Cell is stronger than you and 17. He will absorb you if you stay here now," 22 say.

"I agree. It is true that if you and 17 are absorbed, Cell will be unstoppable. This world will be his.," 16 says with a severe tone.

What about you guys? Are you coming?" 18 ask.

"I'm not needed in his plan to help him gain his perfect form. I'll fight to give you and 17 some time to escape." 22 say with a calm tone.

"Why would you do that for us," 18 ask

"You both are like me, we used to be humans, but we are not now. I want you two to have your freedom and live your life as normally as possible." 22 say.

I then focused all my attention on Cell as he approached a heavily exhausted Piccolo. Piccolo slowly brought his hands together until his fingertips touched each other, and he started to charge a massive amount of yellow Ki between his hands.

"Wow, he could seriously end one of the twins by himself with this kind of power," 22 thinks.

17 noticed what Piccolo was going to do, so he ran away before Piccolo launched his attack. Piccolo fired that massive amount of Ki at Cell, which was powerful enough to destroy the area in front of him. Once the dust and rubble had calmed down, the only thing left in the place where Cell was standing was water from the ocean. I sensed that Cell energy had not gone down.

"They got him! I guess you were wrong." 18 say.

"Negative. Cell didn't take any damage from that blast." 16 say, and 22 nod in agreement.

Cell rises out of the water slowly, not damaged by Piccolo's attack. He floated back to land and started walking toward Piccolo, who didn't know what to do next. Cell stopped right in front of him, and they stared at each other until Cell glanced over at 17, who was watching this happening.

"Hurry, 17! Ruuuun-!" Piccolo shouted at 17 but was interrupted by a hard punch by Cell.

I looked in horror at the sound of Piccolo's neck-snapping and let out a grunt as I saw Cell blast a hole through his chest. Cell evilly chuckled before he threw Piccolo's body into the ocean, and they watched as the body sank slowly into the water.
