	Trunks looks over at what Cell's looking at, then he spots ~~No. 18~~ too, and Kuririn is with them. He realizes they ~~don't~~ know Cell has noticed them, and screams out, "Heeeeey!!!! Cell has found you!!!!" No. 18, No. 16, and Kuririn all freak out, and Cell flies toward them. Trunks says he ~~won't~~ let him reach his perfect form, then he bulks up like Vegeta and follows Cell. Vegeta thinks it's lucky the artificial humans ~~were~~ here, and then tells Trunks he ~~won't~~ let him interfere. Trunks almost reaches Cell, but Vegeta kicks Trunks away, into a nearby mountain. Cell lands in front of them, and No. 18 and No. 16 prepare to fight him. Cell tells No. 16 not to do anything unreasonable while he's on the verge of shutting down, and says that Vegeta wants him to reach his perfect form, too. Kuririn curses Vegeta.

	Trunks gets up from the rubble and tells his dad he's mistaken, they ~~can't~~ let Cell reach his perfect form. Cell's power might become far greater than their own, and then what will they do?

He says even if he has to defeat his dad, he~~'ll~~ stop Cell from reaching his perfect form. Vegeta doubts he can even attack his own father, never mind defeat him. Trunks then lets off a huge two-handed blast at Vegeta, and flies over toward Cell. Cell then uses a ''Taiyō-Ken'', blinding Trunks, Kuririn, No. 16, and No. 18. He opens his tail and sucks up No. 18, and Trunks and Kuririn freak out when they regain their sight. Vegeta is surprised Trunks really did it, but notices that Cell his changing.

==Summary==
Cell is transforming, and Vegeta is pleased with this. Trunks thinks he’ll stop Cell right now, and tries to attack him as he’s transforming, but it seems there’s a barrier around him. Trunks gives up, and there’s a big explosive flash. The smoke then starts to clear. Up at God’s Palace, Piccolo tells Tenshinhan and Bulma that Cell has reached his perfect form. Bulma asks about the controller she made, and Piccolo tells her Kuririn broke it himself. But he blames Vegeta more. In the Room of Spirit and Time, Gohan has transformed into a Super Saiyan, and Goku tells him he’s done well. Then he goes back to normal and stops to catch his breath, saying it’s hard. Goku says they’ll take a break, and he’ll give Gohan a much needed haircut.

Cell’s perfect form: basically more smoothed out than last time, and less bulky. His tail is mostly gone, though his wings are more distinct now, and he has a much more human face now. Vegeta thinks this is good, while Kuririn is pissed at what he did to No. 18. Cell is looking himself over, and Kuririn angrily flies over and punches him in the back of the head, then kicks him. But Cell doesn’t flinch at all. Cell starts throwing his arms out, testing his own power, and then he turns around and kicks Kuririn in the side of the head, sending him flying.
