Thanks for the Memories

Gohan and Dabura immediately butted head. Both grabbed one another's hands and pushed off, each trying to affirm his dominance. Sparks began flying around, and soon both were surrounded by a growing aura. It was Dabura who released the hold first, jetting into the sky, Gohan in pursuit. Gohan, the quicker of the two, immediately caught and began throwing punches and kicks. Dabura just barely dodged each and every one of them until he was hit with a knee to the stomach. Gohan took advantage of this and threw a right hook, colliding straight with Dabura's face.

"I thought when you challenged me to fight you'd at least get me to turn super," smirked Gohan before throwing a ferocious right round house kick.

Dabura felt the impact right on his ribs. He suddenly felt as though he were falling, and fast. He saw the ground, and he was getting closer and closer to it. He crashed landed on the some trees, and lay on his back. He watched as Gohan triumphantly descended from the air. He was bombastic and brash. He had surely underestimated Gohan, he was far stronger than on Babidi's ship. It was a good thing though that Gohan wasn't his intended target.

"Get away, Kamehameha!" screamed Goku, The demons that had surrounded him were all thrown back. However, the one who grabbed Chi-Chi was getting away. He was getting passed the mountains, and Goku was done toying around. He placed his right index and middle fingers on the center of his forehead and closed his eyes, and simply vanished. He reappeared looking dead straight at the demon. In one swift motion Goku landed a thunderous forearm to the demon head's, forcing it to release control of Chi-Chi. Goku embraced Chi-Chi holding her tightly against him.

"Sorry it took me so long Chi-Chi, better late than never right?" Goku said jokingly.

"Goku watch out!" shrilled Chi-Chi. The demons had emerged from under Goku and had now wrapped themselves around him. As Chi-Chi stood and watched in horror and dark portal opened, and the rest of the demons began to flee into it. Goku tried to power up, but his energy was slowly being drained by the demons. He cried out in agony, but Chi-Chi could only watch as the demons proceeded to drag him through the portal.

"Goku! GOKU!" she chased after the demons, but that had already vanished through the portal.


"Tien, do you feel that?" stammered Piccolo, his jaw fully opened.

"Yeah, it's Goku, his energy level just disappeared, no way, is he dead?" Tien managed to get out.

"Dabura's demons, they've taken Goku to the underworld," exclaimed Dende. " I know they have, I can feel it".

"So, what are we doing, Piccolo, Chiaotzu we have to rescue him," Tien quicky remarked.

"It's not that easy. There is no portal on Earth that can take you to the underworld. Dabura is the King of the Underworld, and so he is the only access to and from it. Dabura or his demons must open the gate. Long ago, Kami wished to venture to the Underworld to destroy the evil that was within him. He found that there was no entrance to it, and so separated himself from his evil, thus creating Piccolo," spoke Mr. Popo softly.

"Alright then, we're not just going to sit around and be useless again. Tien, you and I we're heading to the other world. Dende, get ready to teleport us. I'm not just going to sit here and wait for Shan to kill us, we're going there and making some noise," exploded Piccolo. He was furious. He wasn't going to let Shan come to Earth and make easy work of him like Cell and Buu had done. "Chiaotzu, head to where we Goku energy was last present, you'll have to find some clues there. If not head back to the Lookout and tell Yamcha and Krillin the situation when they get out of the chamber. Are you ready Tien?" Tien quickly nodded. "Then Dende, teleport us to the check in station,"


"You poor man, everything is going to be just fine. Honey hurry up with the hot water," a man ordered to his wife. Nappa hadn't the slightest clue where he was. He remembered fighting Three Eyes and The Clown Freak on the island, but nothing after than. He saw a woman come near him and force something down his throat; it tasted awful. He closed his eyes, and struggled to open them again. The last thing he remembered was woman holding his hand whispering, "You'll get through this, we're here for you,"

"Mr. Vegeta, Trunks, the demons, they're running away," Goten said astonished. The demons that were so hell bent on destroying the city had all began to flee. Trunks, Goten and Vegeta all powered down from their Super Saiyan states and watched the demons stunned. The demons were clustered together like geese, all trying to get as far away from the city as they could.

"I'm confused, did we win?" naively questioned Goten.

"No, they aren't leaving because we won. No, Kakarot's energy, I can't sense it. No, they're leaving because they've killed Kakarot.

"What? No, not my dad, daddy!" bellowed Goten.


"If you tell me what you're up to, I may spare your life Dabura," spoke Gohan sternly.

"Do you take me to be a fool? Gohan, I don't believe you will kill me. You see, I've been beated, and I can't defend myself. I am no threat to you, and I know it is not in your nature to kill me," Dabura said smirking. Gohan refused to look at Dabura any longer. He turned his back and began to walk again.

"You've lost Dabura. I suggest you go far away from here,"

"No, Gohan, you're the one that has lost. Can you sense your father's energy?" Gohan stopped dead in his tracks. Dabura wasn't lying. He couldn't sense his father's energy. Gohan violent turned arounded and blasted Dabura's fallen body, however, Dabura managed to quicky move out of the way, and reappeared in front of Gohan. He retaliated by spitting on Gohan. Gohan slowly watched the spit on his arm, and tried wipe it off, but it was useless. Gohan's whole body began to turn to stone. He tried to fly away but his feet were already turned in stone, and stone it began to encroach his entire face, until finally Gohan was set in stone.
