Cell
is one of Dr. Gero's creations. He was made of cells from
many different great warriors such as Goku and Piccolo. In
other words, he is a "clone", well sort of, of
un-imaginable power. Okay here's the story of his
creation. Dr. Gero knew that the androids were not
indestructible so he programmed his computer to gather
Cells from the amazing fighters on Earth. This
process took 20 years and when Cell was finally born he
was instructed to absorb androids # 17 and #18 but Trunks
already destroyed them in this alternate, alternate (yes 2
alternates) future. Cell needed 17 and 18 to become
complete so he killed Trunks but he couldn't fit in the
time machine so he went back to his larvae form and went
in the time machine to go find 17 and 18 in the
past. When he made it to the timeline we know he
grew for 4 years and then started absorbing people.
He battles the Z team for a while but eventually absorbs
the androids (Vegeta helped him absorb 18). Perfect Cell
fights with Vegeta and Trunks after they trained in the
room of spirit and time. Cell is amazed how much stronger
Trunks had become in such a short amount of time and asks
if he could get stronger. Cell decides to hold a
tournament in 10 days similar to the Tenkaichi Budoukai.
He invited anyone who thought they could defeat him to
attend the tournament. He called this tournament the
cell game. Cell is destroyed by Gohan who is the
first one to reach Super Saiyan level 2. Cell has three
humanoid stages. The first is an insect type creature
looking one similar to the last. The second, after he
absorbs #17, looks like the first but much more muscular,
kind of like the Hulk. The last has a more human face, is
purple and green. He eventually spits out #18 when Gohan
hits him really hard.
