Chapter 21
When Buu arrived, Danica was in the back. Obviously she had lost her temper, something he hadn't seen often, and destroyed some of the trees. She was panting.
"Dan-"
"Cram it." She flew away from him.
He was next to her instantly; he caught her foot dragging her to him. She glared at him as they landed.
"Danica" he released her.
"I'm going to go train elsewhere. Please tell me when I can do something useful for you darling" she marched off. She had been angry at Buu but never acted like this to him over something so trivial.
He was right behind her "Danica what are you talking about?"
"So you only keep me around because I'm useful?" She turned to him, halting her movement.
He scoffed "Is that what this is about?"
"Is it?"
"Of course not, dear. I keep you around because I want you around. If those guys think I'm soft for even a moment-"
"They'll what? Gut you?" she rolled her eyes. He started to say something "You're the most powerful person in the world. If they teased you about having a woman, you could simply kill them."
"That's true but Danica-"
"So don't ever, EVER, deny me in front of someone even your enemies! I wouldn't do that to you" she frowned, her shoulders sagged.
He touched her shoulders, "Darling, I'm sorry. I keep you around because I need you beside me, not just your usefulness" He kissed her head and walked to the house. She stood in place and stood thinking. She smiled to herself, 'He's just trying to be a tough guy'.
She caught up him and jumped on his back.
"Ah, what are you doing?"
She kissed his cheek as he chuckled "Alright, your forgiven" He walked in with her on his back.
The day of the tournament arrived. Danica was in the bathroom alone and stared in the mirror. She had a lot on her mind. She looked at her hands over and over and her well-defined body. Having power running through her veins made her muscles tight. She closed her eyes, breathed, and dressed in her favorite red baggy pants and white tank top with red slipper shoes. She wore the ring she had gotten for herself; she was surprised to see Buu wearing his around his neck in plain sight.
"You're wearing it?"
"Of course, it's like you said, it doesn't matter if they think I have a soft spot for you or not, I could kill them in an instant" he smirked. She smiled and tossed a bag over her shoulder. It was all the essentials to bring to the tournament since it would probably last a few days.
She had her hair pulled back in a ponytail. It was time to stand for once in her life. She was going to stand her ground.
"Buu?"
"Yes?"
"Hold on a second before we enter the planet"
"What is it?" He stopped, sounding slightly irritated.
She floated over to him and kissed him hard.
"I love you and nothing that happens here is going to change that OK?"
He seemed taken aback but took off flying to the planet, she smiled and followed. She didn't miss the smile on his face though.
"W..Who is that with him?" The Kai's were all together, some remained quiet. They landed and the challengers were in the hundreds. She made no move to show any kind of feelings or anything toward Buu. He stepped forward addressing the crowd.
"Good evening to all!" There was an aura of unease from the crowd as expected. "Welcome to the tournament to decide the fate of Otherworld and its inhabitants. As you know, if anyone can defeat me, I will stop my conquest of the universe and disappear. If I am undefeated, which is the likely outcome, I will rule the Otherworld and all of the universes combined." He watched the crowd of challengers "I am clearly the superior fighter here, so what do you all say? If you surrender now, I'll make all of your deaths a little less painful" he grinned.
She remained quiet and near his side. She itched to move though; she wanted to fight as well.
"My lovely companion and I will rule over you all and accept all challenges." He made a sweeping motion over the crowd. She felt her flush. "Now come now, let us begin!"
He put his arm on her shoulders to steer her to the open seat, obviously that had been one of the higher ups to sit on, and sat her down.
"Buu, this was probably a God's seat or something, I could just sit on the ground or something" she coaxed.
"You are a God now as well, you are on the same level as them. Don't move"
His look made her nod. As Buu headed to his first fight, she looked over at King Yama. He eyed her but turned his attention now to the upcoming fight.
Buu had already killed two people by the time she looked back to the stage. They were just simple fighters, some over confident. She started to lose count.
Ten….
Fifteen….
Twenty-Six…
Buu was going through the competition at an alerting rate.
"Is this all you have to offer me?! These fighters aren't even worth my time! They aren't even worthy enough to become a part of my perfect body!"
Thirty-One…
Thirty-Nine…
Forty-Seven….
There was a petite looking kid that stepped into the arena. Buu scoffed and turned to him.
"Is this the challenge that I was promi-" a fist knocked him across the stadium and into the open fields. While being out of bounds was legal in this tournament, it was quite a feat. Buu rubbed his cheek.
"Well, well. That'll teach me to underestimate my opponent" His eyes gleamed. He was going to get his challenge.
They traded blows; the fight shook the arena and moved the Earth under them. Buu was getting his challenge. They blasted away a lot of the surrounding area and the majority of the audience as well. Most people fled the arena. Danica lay back in her seat. She watched them all. She felt him switch modes. It was difficult to explain she knew the moment that switched to serious.
"As much fun as this is, I am ready to get serious and crush you" he knocked the challenger to the ground as he levitated over the battlefield.
The kid took a few moments but then exploded out of the ground.
"I am Moto! And I have been training since you killed Goku on Earth to crush you! I will not lose!"
He dashed into the air and slammed a fist into Buu's stomach. Buu was taken off guard and retaliated with brutal voice.
"You think you can take me boy?!"
The boy launched an attack. It blast Buu away where she thought for a moment he might not come back from it.
It was almost thirty minutes before Buu appeared before them.
"W..What the hell?!" he growled obviously angry.
"Having trouble?"
Buu whipped around and stared, wide eyed.
Danica stood in the ring, the boy that had challenged him was backing out of the ring.
"Danica…?"
"It beautiful isn't it?" he looked down at his hands and watched as a series of what looked like white lines drifted out of him, across the ground and to Danica's out reached hand where a small ball was forming.
"What is this?"
"It's your regeneration ability"
