Chapter 8: Self-acceptance

In the last Chapter:

Soon he collapsed next to me and he pulled me close for the night, his tail protecting his legacy. I fell asleep and smiled for once as the darkness tried unsuccessfully to break my bond with Cell. Even if he didn't know it; he was helping me just by being with me.

I woke up with Cell holding me tightly. His tail was protecting my stomach and he was purring softly in my ear. I snuggled closer to him and he just opened his eyes and looked at me. I couldn't recognize the emotion in his eyes; I had never seen anyone look at me that way. He yawned and pulled me closer; we laid like that for awhile until I had to get up and find something to eat. Cell got up and gathered my clothes for me. I got dressed and he picked me up and started to fly away. I knew that we couldn't stay in one spot for long, or else the Z gang would find me. I was sad that I could never be friends with them as long as I was in this world. So I made the hardest decision of my life; I would stay with Cell and never see anyone for fear of my mate and child.

Cell noticed that she looked sad and peeked into her mind. She could never see anyone again because she was afraid of what they might do to him or his unborn child. He flew to an uninhabitable island where there was little food or water and landed for a few hours. Sara fell asleep soon after he landed and tossed fitfully in her sleep. Cell could sense that darkness was trying to get to her. The same darkness that had attacked him before they met. He picked her up and flew to a safer place to let her sleep. He flew off to another town and absorbed more people but it didn't seem to help. He was worried about her; Cell couldn't believe it. He was worried about her; he needed to become perfect to protect her. What would happen if he failed? Cell shook his head angrily and continued on his rampage. He couldn't think about this now; it was slowing him down and making him confused. After the down was decimated and in ruins; he went back to where he left his sleeping mate.

I could feel the darkness trying to get me. I was becoming too much of a threat and it was going to send me back home. I needed to stay; I felt like I belonged here. It kept telling me that I was wrong and I needed to go home. I could see that if I went home everything would die and the DBZ universe would lie in ruin. I couldn't leave; until it made me an offer. Leave now or lose my child and everything I could ever care about. I still refused and once again the darkness attacked me and forced me into another universe. I cried and used all my energy to protect my child and mate, but there was something different about this battle. The darkness was fighting more than just me. I fell into my old bed and opened my eyes. I was home again; but I was still carrying Cell's child. I could feel the slight ki inside me. My room looked just like it did before I left; all my DBZ action figures and posters were still there. I lifted my hand to wipe a tear from my eye when I heard the tear hiss as it hit my shirt. I looked down at my hands and saw that I hadn't changed at all. I still looked the same as I did in the DBZ universe! I could hear muffled shouting coming from outside. I ran outside and saw that the Z gang, the androids, and Cell were preparing to fight what looked like Death floating on my lawn. "Cell, what's going on?" I managed to say. Everyone looked at me and I felt like running away again. Cell made his way over to me and stood in front of me protectively. The Death look alike slowly turned to look at me and when it recognized who I was, it flew at me shrieking. I backed away and Cell jumped to my aid. They fell to the ground and rolled around fighting.

Now what am I going to do? The world I'm from isn't ready for the real Z gang and Cell. Plus will death claim me?

Cell: Not in this life time! *wraps arms around Sara and holds her protectively*

Sara: Aww Cell, thanks, that makes me feel a lot safer.

Cell: Does this mean I can go out in public and eat…I mean meet people?

Well what do you think should Cell be able to go out and meet people or should I just keep him to myself?
