Today our heroes are enjoying another day on the tropical seas as they continue to explore the Orange Islands with their friend Lapras.

Ash- Hey Tracey, you think Togepi has some mo...Aaaah what is that?

Tracey - It's a whirlpool, a big one.

Ash- LAPRAS GET US OUT OF HERE

Misty- it has already got us

Pikachu- PIKAAAA!

Ash found himself lying on a bed. He could smell something distinctly familiar. Then it struck him I am in a hospital. But how? And where are my friends? No sooner had this thought come to his mind than he heard Misty's voice " Hey Tracey look! Ash is alright." Ash was relieved to see them all safe and with pikachu back on his shoulder he left with Misty and Tracey. However what he had been told was quite unnerving. Tracey's words were still ringing in his ears as though he was speaking again " We were washed to a city here which is out of reach for the pokemons. The whirlpool surrounding this island is too strong so you may find no pokemon center here. And these people here know nothing of pokemon either."

Thinking that the day could get no more stranger, he decided to stay away from battles since he would not be able to heal his pokemon. But there is no pokemon to battle here anyway. Suddenly they heard an announcement, which seemed to emit from the sky.

"People of Earth, can you hear me?" It was a shrill, taunting voice, which seemed to cackle even when speaking. " Testing one, two. I am the all-seeing, all-knowing, all-powerful wizard Babidi. Son of the all-seeing, all-knowing, all-powerful wizard Bibidi. Now, now no peeking, no sense in searching for me, you're not even close. I am using my compressive kinematical abilities to transfer my words directly to you, the people. We are so sorry to bother you like this, especially if you're having another nice piece of day. I do know now what its like to be pestered while having fun. You see, earlier today three nuisances did just that. Now, we're looking for them to return the favor."

"Hey Ash, Misty did you hear that too or was it just only me?" Tracey asked, bewildered. On seeing the nonplussed looks of people all around them it seemed that they were not the only ones who heard the voice. But the discussion stopped as they heard the voice.

" Please be courteous and remember that silence is golden, okay? I now present the stars of my own personal nightmare. These are the three freaks that I am looking for. Get a good look at their ugly faces. For they're the ones to blame for any or all the destruction that may come your way." In his mind Ash could see the pictures of three people out of which two were kids and one was a green alien wearing a white cloak and turban.

" Come out you cowards, unless of course you're scared to get a little out of me. I am rather creepy and more is in store for you if you refuse to show your faces. Oh but wait, first please allow me to introduce myself. The hands of death you now see is none other than me, the great wizard Babidi. They could now see a short green guy, heavily wrinkled and wearing a black vest and a blue skirt with a large 'M' on it. He also had an orange cape, which was quite large for him.

" And this is my faithful servant Majin Buu, the heavyweight champion of the universe. He may not seem like much but he is actually quite unstoppable. Just look at him pumping his fists like that." Now they could see a pink fat creature wearing a black waistcoat too short for him and a purple cape. He was also having a belt with the same 'M' as Babidi had.

"Now do you see this city? It looks like a lovely place, doesn't it! Well its citizens are about to get a special surprise at the high cost of your cowardice while you lookout from your hiding place. The following material is of a violent nature and may be considered quite unsuitable for kids. Enjoy this program. Let the fun begin Majin Buu."

Now they could see the creature called Majin Buu raise his hands to make all the citizens of the city float in the sky. With all the people screaming with terror the sky soon had more people than clouds. Then suddenly the creature shouted " BUUUUUUU" and shot a purple beam at the people. In a flash of purple light all the people were transformed into small balls of candy. Then Buu started sucking in air as though inflating itself. All the candy that was floating in mid-air now zoomed into his large mouth. Then he chewed and swallowed them all together as Babidi spoke again " This is but a small taste of what will happen if you don't surrender." And then he laughed with the same shrill, taunting, cackle.

Will our heroes risk their own lives to save the innocent people in Babidi's way? Do they have any choice? Not as long as the always-hungry Majin Buu threatens to eat everyone in sight until the mystery trio reveal themselves. Will the evil wizard be true to his word and stop at nothing to lure them out?

Find out in the next chapter as the world remains under the terror of Majin Buu.
