Chapter 34
"Fuuuuu-Siiiiiooon-Ha!" Bea and Pikada's fingertips touched. Brilliant light flooded the tiled floor of the lookout.
When it dimmed, a single entity stood.
Waist length black hair with stripes of red. A red goat t reached down his chest. His tail wrapped right at his waist as he flexed. He was just a bit shorter than Bea, but had Pikada's cybernetic arm.
Buu was tired of waiting. "You will fight me now. Right here. I will crush you!"
"Sounds like a plan, Buu." His voice sounded harmonic. "Hope you're ready to die at the hands of…"
The fused being looked momentarily perplexed. "Ah, that's it. Bekada!" He smiled. Then his face became a stone mask of seriousness.
Buu rushed. Bekada wasn't there. Instead the Saiyan had appeared behind the Majin. His hand wrapped around Buu's head appendage.
"This place is no good to fight though." Bekada already had two fingers to his forehead.
Bekada and Buu disappeared.
With the fused Saiyan and Buu gone, the remaining folks looked dumbstruck.
"Now what, Mr. Piccolo?" Asked Goten.
Piccolo started at the question and then quickly ushered Trunks and Goten to the hyperbolic Time chamber.
OoOoOoOoO
Bekada threw Buu away from him. Majin Buu looked around at the vast nothingness.
"What is this place?" Buu blurted.
"The void between realities. It's going to be your final resting place, so take it in."
Buu let off a burst of steam and rushed Bekada. The fused Saiyan smashed a fist hard into Buu's face. His left hand wrapped once more around the monster's antennae and he drew his right fist back for another punch. Hit after hit blasted Buu in the face. He'd stretch away only to be met on the rebound by the next cybernetic powered punch.
Fifteen or sixteen hits in he snapped loose. His antennae dangled in Bekada's left hand.
Buu screamed in fury. He rushed Bekada again. A fuchsia beam burst from his mouth.
Bekada slapped it away easily. "Need to be better than that, Buu. Or should I just end it?"
A wild flurry of haymakers came sweeping in at Bekada. One finally hit and the fused Saiyan went sailing away into the void.
Bekada righted himself. He stretched out his left hand and hundreds of small ki blast shotgunned away.
"Nice hit, but I hope that's not all you have." Bekada smirked, seeing dozens of holes ripped through Majin Buu.
"You make Buu mad!"
"Uh huh." Bekada examined his knuckles. "I bet that was a hell of a feat to accomplish…"
"Take this!" Buu made a slight motion with his open hand.
Suddenly his antennae wrapped Bekada in the same move used against Vegeta.
"Shit!" Bekada cried out as the pink tendril tighten.
"Now you die!" Buu screamed.
"Nope." Bekada said nonchalantly.
Then the segment of Buu exploded in golden light.
Bekada stood in the second form of super Saiyan. He wrapped his hands to his side and then pushed forward, a blast wave that constantly changed color washed over Buu.
Even as the attack faded away Bekada appeared next to deformed Buu. Fists impacted the melted looking blob, leaving deep craters with each hit. Bekada finished this barrage up with a roundhouse kick.
Buu was slammed from the void back to reality, Bekada hot on his trail. They reappeared in the midst of lush and steaming jungle. Buu left a trail of felled timber as he blasted through the jungle.
Buu came to a sudden stop. He looked up to see a black shoe resting on his forehead. A duel-toned voice rang out. "Looks like it's over for you Buu! And the shame is, when Goku told you about a stronger warrior…". Bekada held out an open palm, "… He wasn't even talking about Me."
Bolts of multicolor lightning swirled around the finger tips of Bekada's extended left hand. The energy swirled into a spiraling orb.
Buu opened his mouth to scream.
"BURNING ICE THUNDER!"
The energy blasted over Buu. The creature disappeared in the strobing light, the ground evaporated from the energy, and the danced with lightning blast.
Bekada stood fast. His aura exploded outward, the prismatic rush of the wave shunted from his extended hand. He snarled in pure satisfaction.
He was currently, probably the strongest Saiyan that had every lived. More powerful than even Goku at his third level of super Saiyan.
Bekada yelled to the heavens as he increased his power again and again.
Beneath him he felt Buu being striped away one molecule at a time.
The torrent continued, Bekada seemed to draw from an unending fountain of power.
Then he stopped his attack. Bekada stood with his toes on the sheer ledge of a crater. It dropped away for what seemed to be miles. Lava pooled at the bottom, the rippling waves slowly becoming less liquid. Near the center a single pink hand reached up. Stretched like molten taffy it swayed in a spasmodic fashion before falling to the cooling lava and disintegrating to dust.
Bekada stood peering down into the crater. He could still feel Buu down there. It wasn't a full consciousness, but an aftertaste.
Bekada slumped in exhaustion. His hair had fallen back to its normal state, his body was weary. Hopefully Goten and Trunks had some time to train.
Bekada placed two fingers to his forehead and entered the void.
He emerged on the lookout. As his feet touched the ground he suddenly lost his balance and sat hard. Bea and Pikada sat there looking at each other.
Pikada spoke first. "He's not dead."
"But he is going to take a while to recover. We bought the boys a couple of hours I think. Plus by then we should be able to fuse again…" Bea's voice faded away as he fell asleep.
Pikada began to snore next to him. Piccolo turned towards the location of the battle between Bekada and Buu. A sense of evil there tingled his senses.
OoOoOoOoO
Pure. Unadulterated. Rage.
Majin Buu lacked the experience to know that's what this feeling actually was. A vast emptiness of being helpless. The crushing realization that he wasn't invincible. Agony so severe that it might as well had been refined and distilled.
The molten ground had hardened around his decimated body, and reforming had been time consuming, but now he stood whole again.
He turned towards the jumble of power levels to the north east.
"Now, Buu mad. Now Buu biiiiig mad!"
He rocketed into the sky.
OoOoOoOoO
"Get the boys, Piccolo." Bea said as he stood.
Pikada rose to his feet beside him.
"He's almost here." Pikada stretched as he yawned out words.
"I am here!" Buu said from behind the Saiyan duo. They both spun to look at him.
"Well, well, well, you look way better than the last time I saw you." Bea said, while waving his arm to mimic Buu's appendage dangling from the lava.
Buu screamed and hot steam poured from his pores.
"I don't think he's amused, Bea." Pikada quipped. "Looks like he's about to go to pieces."
"Again." Bea said dryly.
Majin Buu rushed Bea. He grabbed the Saiyan by his beard and slammed him into the floor of the lookout.
"Not Funny!" The pink monstrosity bellowed as he lifted Bea again. The Saiyan slumped.
"Die!" Buu swung Bea in an arc and threw him straight up. A pink orb swarmed to life in Buu's right hand.
Bea shook his head as he soared higher into the sky. "Working a little too well." He mumbled as he righted himself.
Below Buu began to throw the massive attack.
Bea held his hands to his side. "Double Burning Ice Blast!" He formed his attack.
Buu released his wave and it sailed towards Bea. Bea swung his left arm and the energy formed there fired towards Buu's attack. Bea pushed himself to his second super Saiyan state as the beams collided.
The energy in his right hand grew stronger and stronger.
Then Bea released the attack pulsing from his left hand.
He vanished to reappear behind Buu. "Surprise!" The blast from his right hand tore through the being.
Buu screamed in frustration as Bea began using instant transmission to fade in and out around Buu. Each appearance brought another attack. Each attack caused more fury in Buu.
Then Bea appeared directly above Majin Buu. With an open hand Bea slapped down. With a pop Buu disappeared.
"You ready Pikada?" Bea asked as he landed. Pikada stood and went super Saiyan. Bea dialed back to the super Saiyan one.
The performed the fusion dance again.
Bekada stood in their place. "Get the room ready." The harmonic voice rang out.
The rest of the fighters went to clear Trunks and Goten from the time chamber as Bekada entered the void.
OoOoOoOoO
"Time is up you two, come on out." Piccolo called as he opened the door to the Time chamber.
The power levels coming from the room were immense. Piccolo's eyes opened wide in surprise.
"Where's Buu?" Asked Trunks, eagerly.
"We can beat him now, I know it!" Exclaimed Goten.
"Bea and Pikada are fighting him right now. Buu is far stronger than we thought." Piccolo said.
"He's not as strong as us!" The boys replied together.
Goten went to shut the portal but Piccolo stayed him. "Leave it open."
The boys looked confused.
OoOoOoOoO
"Tatatatatatatatatata!" Bekada fired punch after punch into Buu.
Majin Buu tried to break the attack but Bekada was far too quick.
Bekada held his hands out and multicolored lightning danced along his fingers. Buu's eyes went wide after he recognized what was happening.
"No! Not again. Buu turn you into candy!" Buu's antennae whip forward.
The transformation beam bounced off of the Android based barrier.
"Goodnight Buu!" Bekada fired his blast. Buu's body disintegrated into nothing. Bekada grabbed the floating head with his right hand.
He placed two fingers to his forehead.
Bekada appeared inside the open portal of the Time chamber. He dropped the head and kicked it. Buu went sailing away.
"Everyone clear? Good!" Bekada quickly left the doorway. He spun and fired his Burning Ice Thunder attack again.
The entire Lookout shook as the doorway between dimensions was obliterated.
Bekada landed. Trunks and Goten stared at the Fused Saiyan.
"Cooool!" They said in unison.
"I bet we look cooler though!" Blurted out Trunks.
Then the time ran out and Bea and Pikada separated.
"Whew! That's a rush!" Bea said.
Pikada began to nod his agreement when he was suddenly knocked backwards. Where he had been standing floated what looked like a tear in space.
A pink ribbon snaked from the fissure.
"Damn!" Bea and Piccolo yelled.
Majin Buu reformed. Pikada rushed him from the pile of rubble that he had created.
Buu fired a pink burst of energy at the Saiyan. Pikada lifted his right arm in defense. The blast impacted as his shield bubbled out, but the severity of the attack overloaded something in the arm. The green light bleeding from the energy core dimmed as the fingers clenched into a fist. Pikada grunted as a shock ran through him.
Buu's antennae lashed out and twisted around Pikada throat and pulled him into an awaiting fist.
Bea slapped his open hands to both sides of Buu's face. "Inferno Glacier!" He yelled as the blast formed around Buu. Bea fired the blast, blowing a hole in the lookout.
Pikada was set free. Bea though staggered from the use of the attack.
"Fuse!" Piccolo yelled.
"Can't!" Pikada said as he waved his clenched fist. "Arm is malfunctioning!"
"Has to be the kids…". Bea said as he sagged.
"Trunks, Goten! Fuse now!" Piccolo bellowed.
Buu began to reform.
The boys took up their places and matched power levels
"Fuuuuu…Sioooon…HAAAAA!"
Blinding light filled the interior of the lookout.
When it faded, where two boys had stood, remained a single being.
"Okay Majin Buu! You're going down, dead at the hands of…". The boy struck a pose, "…Gotenks!"
Buu looked amused as he stood waiting for a few more molecules of his body to reform. He then held up a single finger and waggled it in admonishment at the fused fighter.
"No, No, No, Me Kill you." The pink monster said.
Bea saw that he had left his guard down. With a flash of power Bea rushed Buu.
Buu turned his head towards the Saiyan and motioned with his free hand. A pink blob flew from the shadow and encompassed Bea.
"What the? Get it off of…" Bea yelled in surprise. He was cut off as the blob surrounded him completely and merged with.
There was a cascade of power as Buu transformed. When it ended Buu was slightly wider, his outfit changed to a pair of grey baggy pants tucked into white boots with copper colored toe covers.
He flexed his fists and looked up. "Ah, he made a nice addition to my power!" He stretched. "Yes, this will do!" Then he whipped a handout to snare Gotenks by his purple and black hair. "Come on boy, you've got some dying to do."
Then Buu placed two hands to his forehead and vanished, taking the fused Gotenks with him.
