Well, wasn't this fight going just swimmingly? The tiny elf had bulked up with the aid of some demonic energy and the horned ogre knew how to make herself invisible. Ricter had taken a beating but stood despite the blood in his matted fur, as if he were much more resilient than his fluffy coat gave credence to. Cell considered standing in to help and tackle the angry elf but leaving the ogre to dart about unseen and strike without warning would hinder that plan too much. No, she had to go down first and then he and Ricter could pool their efforts.
Though in Cell's estimation, the warm up had come to an end.
The bio-android clenched his fists, arched his back and yelled. Power flooded into his body as a shimmering cloak of yellow light enveloped him, shaking the arena. "Ah, that's much better."
The dark haired ogre flashed into vision for the swiftest of moments as she ran the knife along Cell's shoulder. Cell struck out with his fist, his knuckle an inch from her forearm, and she ghosted into the air again. Cell could have sworn he felt the tickle of an arm hair dragging over the back of his hand.
The ogre chuckled sweetly. "You'll have to be faster than that!"
Cell smirked. He wasn't fooled. Powering up to full strength afforded him a speed boost and he knew his speed matched hers now. It was just unfortunate that his last strike had missed the mark.
Another sting flared on Cell's back. Turning his head, he spotted the ogre grinning. Cell matched it as he vanished and rematerialised behind her, wrapping her body with his arms and legs. Wasting no time, he thrust the barb of his tail into her neck. She cried out as her body left the shadows and blood trickled down from the stab wound. The corners of Cell's lips turned upwards. Very few of his victims ever escaped him once he penetrated their skin with his tail. In a matter of seconds, everything internal of the ogre would become a thin mulched slurry and be sucked into the bio-android, increasing his own power and leaving her a pile of empty skin.
"Now this won't take very long," Cell said as the ogre's very cells flowed up through the barb and into his tail like a syringe. "I can't speak to the pain, but based on everyone else I've absorbed, it's not very pleasant. It might be best to think of happy thoughts. For example, you could remember all the times that I wasn't drinking your insides."
The ogre struggled against Cell's tight grip, coming close to wriggling free, but the bio-android's strength held her in check. Cell could feel the ogre flipping the knife in her fingers, trying to find a way to jam it into his flesh, occasionally feeling the cold steel brush over his leg without breaking the skin.
Yet with a concerted and sudden effort, the ogre yanked her knife wielding arm free of Cell's grip and drove the steel into his neck. The bio-android roared, the pain forcing him to release his grip of his quarry. He managed to land a kick to her back, knocking her away and loosing her fingers from the weapon still embedded in his body. Cell pulled it out with a hiss and stared at the feathered design of the blade. The streaks of his blood that coated the steel shrank away until it was clean again, as if the knife somehow drank it in.
Cell grimaced at the purple blood that oozed down his arm. He hurled the knife, spinning through the air until its blade stuck in a tournament tile halfway between himself and Ash. Even bringing his full power to bear, he was having trouble dealing with this ogre. Only Piccolo had managed to break free of him once the absorption process had commenced. Was this creature close to his own strength, just as the namekian was back then?
The ogre applied pressure to her neck wound with her hand. Thin trickles of blood sneaked out between the gaps of her fingers. "That's all you've got?"
Cell cracked his knuckles. "My dear, I've only just started being serious. We've got some time to go yet."
The ogre's eyes locked with her feather shaped knife in the ground. She started towards it, but Cell lifted an open palm to the sky. A deep red disc sprung to life, its edges a neon purple. It thrummed in his hand, spinning wildly.
"I wouldn't touch that knife again," Cell said menacingly. "I wouldn't want you to get a nasty cut."
The ogre ignored the advice and dashed for the weapon. Cell hurled his Death Saucer, spinning like a buzzsaw on a direct path with the ogre. She grabbed the knife, hoisted it out of the tile and rolled to the side as the Death Saucer sailed past, bursting apart against the invisible barrier.
"Big Bang Attack!"
A ball of ki collided with her, knocking her back in a cloud of black smoke.
