Breaks Super Perfect Cell's jaw and splinters his skull

The creature growled, a monstrously low roar coming from the back of his throat. There were no more arguments he could make, nothing else to try, and no more time to be bought. Lowering his brow, the bio-android began to center his energy. "So be it...Super Saiyan." Throwing his hands to his side with abandonment, Cell began to summon all the energy he could. His regeneration had aided him significantly in those moments, but it was far from making a substantial difference. The monster's golden aura shot out around him, small thin crackles of blue electricity barely noticeable within it. He groaned and shook, yelling furiously as rocks cracked off of the ground around him and lifted into the air, only to shatter into fragments.

"Is this what you wanted, Vege—!?"

SMACK!

Before the monster had even finished yelling, the Saiyan prince had closed the distance between them. His speed was unobservable, incomprehensible. Vegeta backhanded the creature right in the mouth, cutting his words off and spinning Cell's head to the right. The monster was stunned, truly realizing how little chance he had of winning. He started to curse, but Vegeta connected with a hard right, silencing him again.

"Sorry, I didn't catch that last bit," Vegeta laughed. "Were you trying to threaten me?"

Cell's face stung like fire. His jaw felt like it was already broken in several places, though it had begun to regenerate. He bit into his lip, drawing blood with his wrath. "I swear to you, Vegeta! You WILL pay for this!"

Vegeta responded simply and effectively, by vanishing at super speed and reappearing directly behind the frightened monster. "Consider that you're the one threatening to destroy my home," he whispered into the demon's ear. "That you are the one who nearly beat my son Trunks to death!" Cell shuddered, feeling a cold shiver travel down to his toes. "Now you tell me...honestly... Who's the one that's about to pay?"

The creature grit his teeth angrily, suddenly swinging his right arm behind him in an horizontal slash. But Vegeta dodged it effortlessly, backflipping away from the monster in two casual hops. Cell instantly charged him at full strength, peppering the prince with a barrage of punches from every angle. Each one met with the Saiyan's knee, elbow, or fist as they were blocked with perfect precision and accuracy. The spinning vortex of blows and attacks seemed completely even, but only in the sense that not a single blow got through to either side.

Cell's anger and frustration only grew as the prince smirked at him, defending against each of his attacks as if it were child's play. What more could he do, though? Suddenly halting in midair, the bio-android quickly charged a Kamehameha wave in his hands. "You may be strong, Vegeta. But you'd be a fool to take this head on!"

FROOOM!

His attack fired into the air, crossing the few meters of empty air as it pursued the prince. Yet Vegeta hadn't even defended himself, as his hands and feet were completely relaxed at his sides.

"Ahahahaha!" Cell laughed, thinking the prince's overconfidence would actually grant him an advantage. But his joy suddenly turned once more to hatred.

"Head on, you say?" the warrior suddenly laughed. Vegeta cocked back his neck just as the blast was upon him, then slammed his forehead directly into the blue energy wave. Upon meeting with the Ascended Saiyan's impenetrable skull, Cell's blast rebounded directly back. The monster even had to dodge to the side to avoid impact, only to then be subject to an immediate ramming as Vegeta headbutted him just between the eyes.

Cell sputtered, his eyes flinching between shut and open. Blurred as his vision was, he could only just make out the prince's form before another harsh blow slammed into his face. Dazed and disoriented, the creature could even feel the mighty crest atop his head beginning to splinter from the blows.
