Author's Note: 2 planned chapters in arc remaining
Pan fell to her knees. Gohan and Gotenks approached the figure. Buu's body suddenly seemed to convulse and lost its shape, becoming a pink cloud once more than shifted around. Gohan and Gotenks approached cautiously and were confused as to what had happened. Suddenly, two massive tendrils emerged from the pink blob and each engulfed Gohan and Gotenks, where were pulled into the blob then returned to its more recognizable form of a massive humanoid creature. It laughed at its own trick and regained powers. Once again absorbing Gohan and Gotenks left Super Buu feeling nostalgic, and so he decided to recreate another moment in his memory.
Buu raised his hand into the air and fired billions of pink energy blasts.
The blasts spread across the entire planet and began vaporizing the infected inhabitant. In Bulma's lab, the inventor herself was slowly waking up, near her was her own daughter Bra, still transformed into a doll. Uub had been keeping the doll safe and it was now one of the few things left after his demise. The Doll's hair blew slightly in the wind and was covered in dust being kicked up. Bulma looks dup and saw a ki blast heading towards her and closed her eyes,e expecting death only to feel nothing and then opened her eyes to see Vegeta now as a Super Saiyan 4, standing in front of her with his chest smoking but no damage.
Vegeta: Get out of here.
Bulma grabbed Bra's doll and fled. Vegeta then spotted the cloned Super Saiyan 4 experiment of himself lying there in a broken chamber surrounded by broken glass and covered in a red fluid. Vegeta began to fire ki blasts into it, which after a while began to leave holes in the clone. He got more and more angry and began firing more blasts. One of the blasts tore off a hug chunk of the clone's face and before long chunks of skin and meat sometimes with red hair were raining down with trails of red cloudlike streaks following them as they rained down. Soon there was nothing left to the braindead clone.
"There is only one Vegeta"
Chi Chi and Videl also woke up and upon seeing what was happening, they quickly grabbed the unconscious Goku and made a run for it. The women had Goku slung over both their shoulders. He woke up while being carried and looked to his wife.
Goku: What's going on!
Chi-Chi: Yu idiot! you got taken out by that little shit, and I thought you were supposed to be one of the strongest in the universe.
In that moment, one of Buu's blasts hit Videl and she was vaporized. Chi Chi continued to carry Goku but with the loss of her support she was sent flying forwards. Goku stretched his hand out as he weakly fell to the ground. Ki blasts were exploding around them but everything seemed to slow down. Goku's hand reached towards his wife's but he only managed to touch her fingers. One of the blasts hit Chi Chi in the back and she let out a scream. Goku watched in horror but could do nothing in his current state except fell backwards onto the ground, practically lifeless and without energy.
His eyes stay open as he simply lied there. He could sense something else throughout the universe.
He was losing minds under his control. In fact he was losing entire planets under this control.
He tried to look into the minds of the people under his control. What he saw surprised him. On one planet he saw Frieza's soldiers slaughtering the planet's inhabitants. Another race under his control was currently in a space battle and he witnessed Frieza destroying a planet and cheering delightfully, his brother and father were also destroying planets on other sides of the galaxy. Cell was also destroying a planet and other races under his control were being slaughtered by Saiyans, Frieza soldiers, Red Ribbon Army soldiers and others who swarmed onto the planets with massive numbers like a swarm of bees. It wasn't just many soldiers and Saiyans, it was every single member of those groups who had ever died in their entire history. Frieza's army was centuries old and its dead members were immeasurable. Goku realized his forces were being overpowered everywhere in the universe, his plan of enslaving the great Majin Buu had failed spectacularly, and there was only one thing he could think to do. Goku slowly raised his hands into the air.
"Universe! Lend me your energy!"
On Planet Yardrat, the Ginyu force was completing a mission that their first deaths had delayed them from doing. Jeice pointed something out to the rest of his squad.
Jeice: Hey,any of the rest of you noticed how they're not fighting back or screaming. They're just standing there.
The Yardrat inhabitants were all standing with their hands raised.
Recoome: yeah what gives?
On all the planets being attacked and destroyed all the residents were doing the same thing. Some of the villains such as Frieza and Bojack were angered by this and began to slaughter more and more infected but they still did not scream, instead they all began to glow and emit energy that floated upwards.
NEW PLANET TUFFLE
Pan's eyes were filled with tears from witnessing Uub's death and both her and did not see one of the blasts fired by Super Buu heading towards them, fortunately Piccolo leaped in the way and with one hand swiped away the blast, redirecting it towards the ground.
Pan: Piccolo!
Piccolo: Pan! Satan! Get out of here.
Piccolo looked around and saw Dende and Moori standing from the top of a tower. Piccolo flew towards them and pushed them down to avoid the blasts coming towards them.
Piccolo: where are the Dragonballs! Either of them!
Moori: The Namekian dragonballs are in that tower.
Moori pointed to a white tower in the distance.
Moori: but they're inert.
Piccolo: not for long.
He began to move.
Moori: wait! what are doing?!
Piccolo: I am hold unimaginable power in my hands. I will find a way to free Porunga,even if I have to break the dragonballs to let him out.
Moori: YOU CAN'T RELEASE HIM! IT WILL BE THE END OF EVERYTHING!
Piccolo stopped and grabbed Moori by the shoulders, raising him into the air.
Piccolo: What are you talking about?
Moori: The eternal Dragons were not created. They were enslaved.
Piccolo:what?
Moori: When the kais died we needed some way of protecting us and the entire universe from the Legendary Super Saiyan and the Frost Demons, so many races got together and performed a ritual where seven beings gave their lives to seal a powerful monster into seven mystical orbs! but we were wrong to do so...the creature is too strong! If you misuse the dragonballs you risk summoning him and then he will destroy everything!
Piccolo had forgotten that there was still a danger and was painfully reminded when one of Buu's ki blasts suddenly hit and killed Moori. Piccolo cursed his luck.
"Damn it!"
Piccolo then got mad and turned to see Super Buu in the distance, who had just finished his attack. Piccolo, Dende, Vegeta, Bulma, Pan, , Goku and Buu were the only ones left alive on the entire planet.
Piccolo got angry and charged towards Super Buu. Pan shouted at him as he flew towards the monster
Pan: Piccolo wait! He absorbed dad!
Piccolo stopped himself from throwing a punch. He came up with a new plan.
Piccolo: Majin Buu!
Super Buu saw Piccolo and smiled.
Buu: Aww a reunion.
Buu then expanded his body outward and enveloped Piccolo in his body's substance. Piccolo allowed him. Buu could not absorb him due to his godly ki. Piccolo found himself inside Buu in a bizarre area composed of organic matter. part of the matter rose from the floor and turned into the shape of Buu's face and chest,
Buu: I remember this trick.
Piccolo: Where are the ones you absorbed!
Buu: I moved them somewhere else. Somewhere you can't reach.
Piccolo started flying through the area, trying to find Gohan and Gotenks as soon as possible.
From the outside Vegeta saw Super Buu, he looked downwards from Buu's distant position and saw Goku lying on the ground with his hands raised, and immediately realized what he was doing. He had to make a choice over which one to attack. Vegeta chose to assist Piccolo form the outside. Nearby Bulma had to make a similar choice. She had attempted to be prepared for anything and to this end she ha built a second machine capable of firing nanites that would infect someone and turn Goku and Vegeta into a Super Saiyan 4. She saw Goku gathering energy and Vegeta moving towards Buu. She decided it would be better to infect her husband rather than avoid turning Goku into a Super Saiyan 4 only for him to match Vegeta in power. Bulma fired the beam and managed to hit Vegeta in th back. It wouldn't transform him since he was already a Super Saiyan 4 but it would bring him under control. Vegeta fell over an began fighting the infection. This lasted for quite a while when suddenly Vegeta smiled creepily. Bulma also smiled at her success, when suddenly Vegeta turned around and fired a blast. Bulma panic and jumped out of the way as the machine was destroyed.
Vegeta: How dare you... HOW DARE YOU USE MY BULMA TO TRY TO CONTROL ME! Did you think I would be that easy? Did you think after all the times I've been manipulated in the past by Frieza, Cell or Bobbidi that I would let something like that happen again?! I AM THROUGH BEING SOMEONE'S PAWN!
Vegeta was fighting for control of his own mind. Despite the mental battle going on inside his mind, he rushed into battle
Vegeta began attacking Buu from the outside. From inside his own body Super Buu was mocking Piccolo's attempts to search for his friends when he felt the powerful punches from outside his body. The entire inside shook violently, something which concerned Piccolo. He resumed his search. Vegeta was happy to have a chance to fight such a powerful foe as Buu without needing to fuse but the two were evenly matched and Vegeta's mental turmoil didn't help either. Vegeta during the fight, saw Champa and Vados, up above and while fighting shouted towards them.
Vegeta: Hey you two! I have a plan! Vados! can you transport us somewhere?!
Vados was surprised to be asked for help but keeps he normal tone.
Vados: why of course. where would you like to go?
Inside Buu, Piccolo had finally found where Gohan and Gotenks were being imprisoned. He also saw something else which surprised him, someone else that was inside Buu. He then heard Vegeta.
Vegeta" Namekian! Find them and get out of there! We're going to send Buu somewhere.
Piccolo obeyed and grabbed Gohan and Gotenks as he prepared to fly out. He chose to leave behind the other person in Buu. Vegeta's plan probably involved sending Buu into the sun and Piccolo hoped that all of Buu including anyone unfortunate to have been absorbed by him would be destroyed, hopefully once and for all. He proceeded to leap out of Buu with his two rescued captives.
Vegeta: Is everyone out?
Piccolo: yes
Vegeta: What about Uub?
Piccolo: he's dead.
Vegeta nodded and flew towards Buu, eventually managing to attack him from behind and grab him.
Vegeta: Do it!
Vados summoned a beam that teleported Vegeta and Buu away. The beam was sending them upwards and through space. They were moving so fact that Vegeta's skin an fur were starting to catch fire. Parts of Buu's body were being torn off and burning from the velocity. The two passed through many cosmic events such as a comet which slowly froze parts of them as they phased through its tail. Buu tried to escape but it was to difficult to maintain a solid form as his body was being burned up or being torn of his body from the velocity. Buu was able to look down and recognize the sacred world of the Kais. Old Kai and Kibito kai were nearby a large lake filled with the sacred water. The blue beam created by Vados appeared above it and Vegeta and Buu crashed into the sacred lake at several times the speed of light. A large wave of water emerged from the lake and Old Kai and Kibito Kai ran for cover from the giant wave.
The water in the lake was now shallow. there was silence once the wave had subsided. The water turned calm and tranquil when Vegeta and Buu burst out of the water and continued fighting. Vegeta body looked like it was burning. Smoke was coming from his body and several burns and scars were appearing all over his body and he was screaming in pain while also at times grinding his teeth and delivering blows to Buu. Buu stopped fighting to look at the state of his body and wha the saw shocked and hophead him visibly. His hand had melted into a pile of pink goo upon contact with the water and it wasn't growing back. Beau's mouth opened in shock and then almost comically continued to get bigger and fall towards the water as it melted. His other hand follow suit and Vegeta continued to pound Buu as his body melted. Soon all that was left of Majin Buu was a pink puddle with Buu's face in it. It sank into the water and soon was completely submerged into an area of pink water. A single one of Buu's eyes rose up from under the water, grew in size and then popped like a bubble. Vegeta, despite Buu's more than apparent demise, continued to punch the area of pink water. After a while he stopped and went down on his knees in exhaustion, his skin horribly burned and still smoking. He had thought he had freed himself from most of his evil, but the sacred water had disagreed. He felt the urge to say something cool in that moment.
"you know, a great human general once said When you put your hand into a bunch of goo that a moment before was your friend's face, you'll know what to do...I have...
Vegeta felt something under the water and reached in to feel didn't feel like a chunk of Buu left undissolved but rather it had the texture of human skin with bone under it. He pulled out what to his surprise was none other than Uub. Vegeta realized Piccolo had lied to him and for whatever reason, went with the plan with the intent of risking Uub's life. Vegeta got angry and the water around him boiled.
"and I know what I need to do."
