(this story takes place the day they discovered Cell)
~**~

16 year old Meilin ran out out of her apartment, to her Benz, opened the trunk and threw her suitcase in, closed the trunk, opened the door, got in and pushed her foot to the gas pedal and pulled out of the driveway. She couldn't take it anymore. Her beloved Li Syaoran was in love with Kinomoto Sakura. She was happy that they loved each other. She and Daidouji Tomoyo had even helped them get to together. Meiling still can't believe they did that. Tomoyo was in love with Sakura and she happily hooked Sakura and Syaoran together. Tomoyo claims that as long as Sakura is happy, she's happy.

Meilin smiled when she thought of Tomoyo. She always thought Tomoyo was a bit...weird, but in a cute way. Tomoyo's favorite phrase was "Sakura is so KAWAII!!!". Meilin shook her head and concentrated on the road. She had to leave, there was nothing for her here. Everyone had someone except her. Sakura had Syaoran, Touya had Yukito, Eriol had Mizuki-sensei, Chiharu had Yamazaki, Rika had Tereda-sensei, Tomoyo was happy as long as Sakura was happy, and Nakuru...she was well Nakuru. She was content hanging over every cute boy she saw. As for Naoko? Just give her a ghost stiry and she'll be fine. Everyone had something to be happy with except for her. Even those little stuffed animals Kero-chan and Suppi-chan were happy fighting with each other.

She realized she was now in a town. She had been so lost in thought that she just drove straight without stopping. God only knows how many red lights she ran. She parked her car in front of a small store. She was hungry and she needed something to eat. She got out of the car and looked around confused. The streets were empty and there were clothes all over the place. What happened? Did a department store explode or something? she thought as she walked into the store, whice was also empty except for the clothes lying everywhere.

Meilin didn't feel hungry anymore. Something was terribly wrong. Cities like this were usually full of activity. Now, it was like everyone was sucked up or something. She bent down to pick up a shirt and examined it. It had a hole in the middle and some blood on it.Meilin gasped and let the shirt fall from her hand. These people were stabbed and all that was left of them were their clothes. Even little children's clothes lie scattered. Meilin choked back a sob. This was so awful. Suddenly her fear turned into anger. What monster could do such a thing to a bunch of innocent people!?

Just then an energy ball came flying right at her and barely missed her scalp. Meilin gasped and duck as the ball hit a building and it crumpled to the ground. Luckily she wasn't close to that particular building so she wasn't harmed. Meilin cautiously stood up and turned around and gasped at what she saw. Standing not too far from her was the most Horrible monster she had ever seen in her life! It was a tall, green with black spots here and there with orange on his stomach, insect-like yet, it had a human like body and a scorpion-like tail.

Slowly, the creature made it's way towards her. His pink cat-like eyes were locked on her. Meilin was scared to death. Not of the this hidious creature was going to kill her in a few seconds, not because it stalked towards her in a way a panther stalks it's prey.

She afraid because she was not afraid of him.

Cell stopped and stood just inches away from her. 'Perfect. The perfect snack.' he thought staring at her. He then noticed something about her that was completly unlike his usual victims. His usual victims begged for mercy on their knees, his usual victims would turn around and try to run as fast as their puny human legs would take them. But this girl just stood there as if he was no threat to him. The girl obviously didn't know who he was. But still, his appearence should have been enough to frighten her.

He looked deep into her scarlet eyes and found nothing. No trace of fear or even nervousness. He was beginning to think that this girl had no soul. But he knew better than that, he knew all humans had souls. He decided he'd see just why this girl appeared to be totally unafraid of him.

"What is your problem?", Cell asked her,"Aren't you afraid?"

"Afraid of what? Afraid that I'll die or afraid of you?", she countered.

Cell wasn't expecting that. His eyes widened for a minute but then he spoke,"Are you afraid to die?" he asked her raising her tail.

"No", was all she said.

"Are you afraid of me?"

"No"

"Why not? I thought my appearence would frighten you like most humans"

" I've seen ugly disgusting things before. So, I'm just adding another one to the list", Meilin shrugged.

"How very charming", Cell commented,"Now answer my question, human"

"And what question was that?", she asked keeping an emotionless face on. It was almost as if Yue gave her lessons.

"Why aren't you afraid of me?", he asked getting annoyed by her indifferent attitude.

"Because, I only fear what is worthy of my fear. And you are not worthy of it", she said conversationally.

Angered by this, Cell grabbed her arm and tossed her half way down the street. Meilin tumbled a bit but quickly got up to her feet, her eyes were wide with suprise and she was breathing heavily. Cell was pleased that he summoned some emotion out of the ebony haired young woman. But the fear he thought would be in her eyes along with suprise wasn't there. And the suprise soon faded too until all that was there was anger and disgust.

Meilin felt a rage boil in her stomach. Nobody tossed Li Meilin around like a rag and gets away with it! Not even if the one who did it was a mutated son of a bitch with a bad case of the uglies.

"You're gonna pay for that, you freak!" she screamed.

Cell only laughed at her anger,"I'm going to pay, am I? What are you going to do to me little girl? Hmm? What are you going to do, child? Hit me with your dollies?", he asked laughing louder.

Meilin got into a fighting stance and balled her fists,"I've had just about enough of you, bastard!", she said through clenched teeth.

Cell was suprised at how daring this girl was. No one ever said anything like that to him! Sure, a few curses were screamed at him from his victims that begged for his mercy right before he made them a part of greatness, but never has anyone ever talked to him in that manner!

"Why don't you just make it easy on yourself and come here and be part of greatness" he said never taking his eyes off of her.

Meilin glared,"What do you mean by that?", she asked still in her fighting stance.

"Become one with me. It'll give you a purpose. Just like all of the others." he said in his ragged voice.

Meilin gasped and looked around her at all of the clothes that lie scattered on the street,"You monster!", she yelled.

Cell merely laughed at her shock,"You see, my little snap dragon, it is futile to resist the inevidable. Now, be a good little dog and come here", he said calmly.

"Never. I'd never give my life to a freak like you without a fight!", she screamed,"I'd rather die at my own hands than at yours!", she screamed.

Cell had heard just about enough. He jumped up and charged toward her, his tail pointing straight at her chest. Meilin used her arms to shield her chest. She wasn't going to give up so easily. The point of his tail was three inches from her chest and then she wasn't there. His tail smashed through the concrete. He looked up fustrated and then smiled.

"Well. Hello there Piccolo", he said standing up.

Piccolo was hovering high in the air, the girl in his arms. He was glaring down at Cell while holding the girl protectivly in his arms.

Piccolo held the girl tightly so she wouldn't fall. She still had her eyes closed and her arms were still over her chest. Piccolo surveyed the area and took in the clothes that lay scattered. His stomach burned with rage and loathe,"Cell! You're going to pay for this!", Piccolo yelled.

Meilin was suprised when the pain she expected never came. She opened her eyes and found that she was now floating in the air, in a green man's arms. Meilin started to feel weary. This is all too weird. She was used to Clow Cards and magical stuff but this?!! 'I leave town to get away from my misery and then I get this shit. What's next?' She thought siging heavily. Then she remembered, the green guy had called the monster 'Cell'. 'So that's this freak's name' she thought.

Just then a man with three eyes flew over to the one Cell called 'Piccolo'. Meilin's eyes widened when she saw him. First an ugly freak, then a green person, now a guy with three eyes and they can all fly. Is this the Twilight Zone or the Outer Limits? she thought as her head started to hurt.

"Tien. Take her. Get her somewhere safe", Piccolo said breaking her thoughts as he placed her in Tien's arms.

"I will. Good luck Piccolo", Tien said right before he flew off.

Piccolo turned to Cell and landed gently on the ground,"Well. Shall we begin?", he asked smirking. Piccolo charged at Cell and aimed a punch straight for his head. Cell blocked the punch with his hand and socked Piccolo in the jaw. Piccolo flw into the air and all was seen was two flashing lights colliding with each other.

~*~~*~~*~

Meilin turned to Tien as he flew,"You're just going to leave your friend back there?!", she yelled outraged. She'd never do something like that to Syaoran or Sakura.

Tien shook his head,"He's fought Cell before. He'll be fine", he said.

Meilin suddenly remembered her car was back there along with all of her stuff,"Turn around!", she screamed,"My car is back there along with my stuff", she said.

"What? Look kid. You can buy another car and more stuff", he said.

Meilin glared,"Let me down! I want to get my car!", she screamed. 'And I want to show that ugly creep a thing or two.' ,she thought silently.

Tien shook his head,"I'm not going to let you endanger your life just for your car. Now where do you live?", he asked.

"I live far away from here and it'll take forever to fly me home and I don't want to go home! I wanna get my car and shove my size 7 straight up Cell's ass!!", she screamed losing her temper.

Tien looked at her as if she had just went crazy,"Have you lost your mind?! You've seen what that thing can do and you want to fight him?!", he asked not believing his own ears. This girl was half his size and she wants to take on Cell?! She had spirit. He had to give her that.

"If you won't take me back, I'll go myself", she said keeping her eyes on the trees that passed under her. None of them knew what she was capable of. She was a descendant of the great Clow Reed. She wore out the Fight Card, and nearly won. She helped Syaoran defeat the Twin. She could take on that monster!

"Look kid. I'm not going to let yo-", that was as far as he got before Meilin riggled herself from his grasp and fell into the forest.

"NO!!", Tien yelled as the girl fell into the forest. He flew after her and hoped she didn't hit the ground already.

Meilin tucked herself into a ball and rolled until she landed on her foot on a tree branch. She looked up and smiled. She'd have to move fast if she wanted to get back to where they were. She jumped from branch to branch, moving with incredible grace. All of those years of training had paid off. She smiled when she saw the two clashing forces of Cell and Piccolo battling. Suddenly they both dropped to the ground. She could see Cell with that arrogant smirk painted on his face. Oh how she would love to wipe that smirk off of his ugly face.

"Just you wait, Cell", she whispered,"Just you wait"
