Part 1: Enter Dr. Boo
"We're here," said Bulma. ChiChi opened her eyes and saw endless dark. There were tiny glowing spots in the distance. Even closer than that was a large, gray mass almost directly in front of them. The view was awe-inspiring.
"The stars, the moon, they're so beautiful, Bulma. I never knew that space was so…beautiful." ChiChi put her gloved hand forward and tried to touch the stars. She and Bulma were wearing white Capsule Corp. spacesuits. "It's so beautiful."
"Okay, ChiChi," laughed Bulma. "I know that space is beautiful, but right now we have work to do." Bulma started pushing buttons on the control panel and the ship started to turn away from the moon. ChiChi pouted when the moon disappeared from view and plopped back into her chair. Bulma could not help but to giggle. "Don't worry. After we are done, we'll come back out here and spend some time just looking at the stars. Okay?"
"Alright." ChiChi looked down at the control panel. "So, have you found the thing you're looking for yet?" Bulma nodded her head.
"Yes. As a matter of fact, it's right over there." Bulma turned the ship around a little more until it had its back to the moon before accelerating. At first there was nothing new visible. Soon, though, a small white object came into view. Bulma maneuvered the ship closer and ChiChi just stared at it.
"What is it?"
"That is the reason that we are up here." As they moved closer, Chichi could now see that they were approaching a satellite. The ship was positioned right next to the bottom of the satellite and the engines powered down. Bulma unlocked herself from her seat and turned to the door behind it. She opened it and entered the room. ChiChi decided to follow so she unhooked herself from her seat. When she made it out of her seat, she found Bulma putting on another spacesuit over the first, this one thicker than her original and had the addition of a transparent helmet. The room itself was very small, only about 5 feet all around. At the end that Bulma was getting dressed in there was a large door. In the middle of the room a ladder hung about 3 feet off of the floor. ChiChi stepped into the room.
"So why are we up here looking for a satellite?"
"Do you remember was we were told by Rae about the Buu-droids? They were androids fused with Buu's genes. The genes that were used in the Buu-droids came from a laboratory in space." Bulma pointed out the window to the satellite. "I used the computers at Capsule Corp. to find this place. After examining it I found a computer on board that is almost definitely capable of holding the kind of information needed to build another Buu-droid."
"So you're going to go inside of that?" ChiChi pointed out a window to the satellite. Bulma nodded and put on a thick pair of gloves over her other pair. "What am I supposed to do while you're gone?"
"All you have to do is to monitor me on the controls." Bulma gestured to the hatch above them. "Go up there and close it tight. When I get outside you can cover me. If something goes wrong you might have to destroy the satellite." Bulma's nonchalant tone made ChiChi uneasy.
"Blow it up?" ChiChi seemed surprised and worried at the same time. "But what if you're still in it? How are you going to get out?" Bulma walked over to her friend and placed her hand on ChiChi's shoulder.
"Don't worry so much. This satellite has not been active since Boo was resealed in the Dead Zone over ten years ago. The chances of it just all of a sudden activating itself and coming to life are too small to count." Feeling a little calmer about the situation, ChiChi made her way up the ladder and went into the new room. To her delight, the control panel consisted of only a few buttons. She closed the hatch and sat down in the only chair in the room. As she did a microphone raised up out of the panel. ChiChi waited a few moments for something to happen, but nothing did. Just as she was about to give up, she heard the static coming from the speakers in the walls.
"Bulma, are you there?"
"Yeah. I'm here. Press the third yellow button from the left and a screen should come up. You'll be able to see through my helmet camera." ChiChi pressed the button and the screen raised up out of the back of the panel. It showed the static for a brief second before switching to the helmet cam. The picture showed space, endless space. ChiChi was a little surprised.
"Are you already outside, Bulma?" The screen went up and down, signifying Bulma nodding."
"I'm right outside the air lock."
"Where is that?"
"The room you just came from. There are only three rooms on the ship. There is the main room where we steer the ship. The second is the air lock. It connects the main room and the weapons room. You are in the weapons room right now. It has a second set of controls and… the weapons."
"Alright. I understand." Bulma turned her head so that the helmet cam was now showing a small asteroid. "Listen ChiChi. Can you see that asteroid? If you can touch the screen where it is and it will show up as a red dot." Bulma waited as ChiChi reached over to the screen and tapped it where the asteroid was. The red dot blipped on both ChiChi's screen and Bulma's helmet. "Okay. Now I'm going to show you how to use the weapons. It's very simple. Directly in front of you should be a small, white handle. Pull it up."
"I see it. I'm pulling it up now." ChiChi pulled on the handle, which turned out to be very heavy. It slowly came up and out of the panel. After moving an inch, the sides of it started to hiss and shoot out steam. This started ChiChi and made her fall backward, almost off her seat. The handle then came out all the way, revealing the weapon controls beneath it. ChiChi was in awe. There were two handles with triggers for the hands, along with four red buttons on the left side. They were straight in a row downward. ChiChi placed her hands in the handles and moved, turning them slightly to the right. The entire room moved and the ceiling started to open, leaving another layer of transparent material between her and space. Now ChiChi could see the guns themselves, which were twice as long and twice as thick as her body. Bulma watched the whole scene from the side of the ship.
"Okay, now press the trigger once to activate it. After that you'll see two green crosshairs on the wall. It is actually another screen. Aim the crosshairs at the asteroid and wait for them to change red." ChiChi moved the gun chamber around until she had sight of the target. She pointed the guns at it and they locked on quickly.
"Okay, Bulma. I'm locked on. Now what do I do?"
"At the bottom of the gun controls there should be four red buttons. They signify your weapons. The top one is the gattling gun. It is the weakest, but it uses very little energy so it has the fastest fire rate. The second is the pulse cannon. It fires slower, but it is decisively more powerful. The third buttons activates the pulse rockets. They use shock waves to be more effective in the conditions of outer space. I don't expect to anything up here that will give us too much trouble. However, if we do find something that does there is always the fourth button. ChiChi looked at the forth button and examined it, looking for some difference. She couldn't find any.
"What's so special about the fourth button?" Her tone was very inquisitive.
"It's…ChiChi, it's a self-detonation switch." All was silent for the next minute. Although she couldn't see her friend, Bulma knew that ChiChi was in shock. She could feel it. "Don't worry, ChiChi. It has a fifteen-second timer and your room is also the escape pod. When the timer is set, the pod is jettisoned off of the ship and out of harm's way. You have nothing to worry about." ChiChi giggled, which surprised Bulma.
"I know there's nothing to worry about. You wouldn't have me here unless it was safe, now would you?" A smile appeared on Bulma's face.
"You're right. Okay, now it's time to take out the asteroid. Fire the Pulse rockets." ChiChi pressed the third button and there were a couple of mechanical noises. She pressed the trigger and two small rockets launched from beneath the guns. The collided with the asteroid and exploded. The massive rock vibrated violently before blowing into a million pieces.
**********
Beep. Beep. Beep. A small light started to beep on the main computer in an empty laboratory. At the other end of the enormous room a door opened and a man walked into the relative darkness. He continued across the floor and over to the enormous super computer. He stopped at the base. It was about 40 feet high and 10 feet across. The controls were closely compacted near the center.
"Computer on," said the man. All of the buttons on the computer started to flash. The lights in the room flashed on and off. A red light aimed itself at the man's head.
"State user name," the computer demanded.
"User name: Doctor Boo." The computer took a second t analyze the voice. A few seconds later the lights turned on completely and the red light shut off.
"Voice recognized as Dr. Boo. Security clearance granted." The computer powered up to a blank screen.
'Aspa, what was the cause of the alarm?" The computer screen lit up and started displaying lines of information.
"Satellite Neo orbiting the earth had its proximity circuits breached." Dr. Boo looked slightly shocked.
"Do we know who it is?" The computer ran through some more lines of data.
"Scanners indicate a two body vessel. Two life forms have been confirmed. The ship is a product of Capsule Corporation." Aspa went down a few more lines of data. "The life forms have been identified." The names flashed over the screen and Dr. Boo was in total shock. "Life forms identified as ChiChi and Bulma." Dr. Boo's mouth hung open for a few moments before curling up in anger. He slammed a fist down onto the control panel.
"How could she possibly find my satellite? I had so many security measures. It wasn't supposed to happen this way. I need more time to finish my plan." Dr. Boo turned around and started pacing back and forth. He had to come up with something quick or his plan was going to be over before it started. "She has already ruined my plan to give birth to the ultimate fusion warrior, Buuku. Now she threatens me again." Dr. Boo took a deep breath. "There is no other choice. Bulma Briefs must die."
**********
Bulma sat in front of yet another monitor inside of the satellite. There were only two rooms. She looked at the controls, which would have confused a normal person, and easily navigated them. The data that she had received about the satellite was true; it was definitely the space station that she had been looking for the past 10 years. Bulma's fingers typed away at unbelievable speeds, trying to find some way to break through the massive amount of security codes that they were facing. It was only a matter of time before she would get through; Bulma had total confidence in her skills.
"Bulma, are you done yet?" asked a very bored ChiChi. She was trying to watch Bulma's fingers, but they were going excessively fast for the naked eye. She did succeed in falling into a trance. A wave of sleepiness came over her all of a sudden.
"I'm sorry, ChiChi, but this computer has a lot of security on it. I don't thing I've ever seen this much. It takes a while to get by all of it. Just hang in there. I'm positive that I've gotten through just about all of it." Right on cue, the screen went black and then the main menu came up. "See? All done." ChiChi shook her head and focused on the screen. When she saw the main menu she felt a sense of happiness, but was unable to muster the energy to move. ChiChi put her arms on the control panel and rested her head on them. She kept one eye open so that she could monitor the screen, but she was actually on the verge of falling asleep. Bulma clicked a couple of options on the menus and came to a document titled, "The Buuku Project." Upon seeing that ChiChi sprang awake."
"Buuku? Is that what I think it is?"
"It is. This explains everything about Buuku." Bulma pressed the download button. "I'm sending it to the computer onboard the ship and to a disk I brought with me right now. It should start to scroll down your screen any second now." ChiChi waited until it finally started to come up on her screen. She started to read the document, most of which she already knew. Then she saw something strange.
"Bulma, who is Doctor Boo?" Bulma stopped her typing for a moment to think about it.
"I don't know. Why do you ask? Is the name mentioned in the document?" ChiChi nodded her head, forgetting that Bulma couldn't see her.
"It says that Dr. Boo was the man responsible for everything. He created Hunter and the Madam. His computers made the robots at the party. He directly oversaw the fusing of Buu and Goku's genes."
"Directly? That means that he must have been at the mansion. He must have been watching us the whole time." Bulma snapped out of her daze and started into the next file. She clicked on it and the title came up. "Android B? What is Android B?" Bulma's question was never answered because the entire satellite started to move.
"What was that, Bulma?"
"I don't know, but I thing I had better get out of here!" Bulma quickly made her way out of the room (it was very small). She came to a very short hallway that opened to a wide area at the end. In that open area Bulma hit a switch on the wall. The air was sucked out of the room and the floor opened. Bulma dropped through slowly until she was clear of the satellite. She clicked her feet together and activated jets on her feet. They propelled her back toward the Capsule Corp ship. "ChiChi, you have to open the air lock. Just hit the purple button on the right side of the controls." ChiChi's eyes searched around until she found it.
"Okay, I see it." She pushed the button, triggering the air lock. Bulma floated in and clicked her boots off. She closed the air lock herself and pressurized the room. Moving as quickly as she could, Bulma took off the extra suit and made her way back to the main control room. She jumped into the chair and started pressing buttons at an alarming speed. The screen in front of her came up and showed the satellite…or what was formally the satellite.
"Oh no."
"What is that?" asked ChiChi, frantically pressing the screen. Seven red dots showed up on Bulma's screen, all pointing to the same thing. "What is that?" she asked again.
"That is what I would call unexpected trouble."
**********
The Dead Zone. It is the world of nothingness in which the most evil beings of the universe are imprisoned. Life in the Dead Zone is not easy. Some do not have to worry about it because they do not survive long. The conditions can be harsh at times. Although it is devoid of any original life, it is frequented by things that can only be referred to as "power storms". If the hard, quiet, and lonely life of the Zone does not manage to kill someone, the power storms do. Only the strong survive in the Dead Zone, or the immortal.
Boo is one of the strong. He, like most others who can survive long enough, had his chance to escape the Zone. Like most others he failed to stay outside due to hero intervention. Boo would never forget Gogeta and how weak the fusion made him look. Boo thought about him all the time, trying to figure out what ways to torture his nemesis when he finally escaped the zone again. Of course, he would have to get out first and that did not seem to be likely. His brother had been send back to Hell. He would be no help. Both of the Buu-droids, Hunter and Madam, were in Hell as well. They would be on help. Unless Boo could find a way to get out from the inside, he wasn't getting out at all. For ten years he thought about ways to get out and each one failed. Boo had given up for the time being. For the next year he decided that he would simply sit down Indian-style, rest his head on his hand, his elbow on his knee, and tap his leg with his finger. Maybe after doing that for a year he could come up with a plan of sorts. Boo knew it was unlikely.
"Are you Boo?" asked a voice from behind. Boo had been in his tapping position for one month straight. The sudden noise slightly startled him, but he ignored it anyway. A shape came around in front of him. It hid in the shadow of a floated rock to conceal itself. Boo tried to continue with his master plan, but it was becoming very hard to concentrate with the man staring at him so blatantly. Boo looked up without moving his head.
"What do you want?" The shape came forward and it was massive. It was blue and extremely muscular. It was shirtless and had heavily tattered pants.
"I want to talk to Boo. I have a proposition for him. Are you Boo?" Boo seemed slightly upset at not being recognized. He quickly lifted a hand and fired a chi blast at the shape. It was dodged and the blast continued on. In the distance it hit a floating boulder and vaporized it in a huge explosion. The figure smiled evilly. "Hello, Boo. Let me introduce myself. I am the legendary Garlic Jr." Boo stared at Garlic for a moment.
"Who?" The evil smile disappeared from the face of Garlic and it was replaced by anger.
"I am the most powerful being in the Dead Zone! You show me some respect if you wish to continue living." Boo gave Garlic a slightly annoyed look before turning his attention back to his tapping. "Besides, I can get you out of here." Boo's ears raised in curiosity when he heard that. Boo lifted his head off his hand.
"How?"
"So now we're talking?" Boo stood up and crossed his arms over his chest.
"If you value your life, speak now." Garlic smiled again.
"If you want to get out of the Zone, you'll work for me. I have the power to open the Zone at my own will. I can release us both."
"I am unimpressed," Boo said bluntly.
"What are you talking about? Do you wish to stay trapped in the Zone for your entire life?" Boo levitated off the rock he was on and floated over to Garlic. He stopped right in front of the big, green monster. They were face to face.
"I don't believe you." Boo flew up at an angle and put distance between the two of them. Garlic had a confident look on his face.
"You don't believe me because I am still here. Well, let me show you exactly what I can do." Garlic Jr. placed a finger in the air and closed his eyes. Boo watched in amazement as the very essence of the Zone started to ripple. It was over quickly, though, and Garlic Jr. fell slightly limp seconds after starting. He was breathing hard. Boo's look became one of annoyance again.
"Pathetic." Garlic lifted hi head.
"That is why I have come here. Together we can open the Dead Zone portal from the inside. With both of our powers combined we can escape and I can finally have my revenge on that brat Gohan!" Boo ignored the last part about Gohan. He did not know or care who Gohan was; it was inconsequential. All Boo could think of was one person; Gogeta. He played the scene repeatedly in his head. Below him the fusion warrior laid a defeated man. Boo held out a hand and it started to morph into liquid. The pink sludge slowly pours into Gogeta's mouth, the fusion unable to defend. With deadly accuracy, Boo shuts down every one of his foe's life functions. He does not kill him there, though. He makes sure that he feeds his enemy enough energy to stay alive. Boo waits patiently for the look. The proud fusion refuses to give him the pleasure. Boo starts snapping all of the bones in Gogeta's body. He tries to scream, but his lungs have been destroyed. It is then that Boo gets what he wants; the look. The look when the fusion realizes that his life is over. The absolute fear and horror that he would never show otherwise. It is that which has driven Boo on to this point. Now that he has achieved it, there is no longer any need to keep the body alive. Boo quickly reforms his arm, pulling all energy from the limp corpse on the ground. Boo smiles. He as received his revenge.
"What do I have to do?"
"Good. I can see that we are on the same page. All you have to do is donate a small amount of your energy to me so that I can open the portal." Garlic extended a hand out to Boo. "It's that simple." Boo took the hand, but he had a very sadistic look on his face.
"I have a better idea." Before Garlic could react, Boo grabbed his hand and started to charge his energy in his own body.
"What are you doing?" Boo answered Garlic's question by shooting all of the energy he had gathered directly into the hand of Garlic. "AHHHHHHHHH!!!"
"You go boom."
**********
"This is ridiculous!" yelled Bulma as they were hit with two more blasts. The main control went dark for a second before reactivating. "We can't keep getting hit like this or we won't make it back. ChiChi, I'm on my way up."
"Okay." ChiChi fired the pulse cannon at the enemy. The satellite had transformed itself into a mobile suit. It was using the dish as a rocket and it was trying to destroy the ship. Luckily, the outer coating of the Capsule Corp. ship was tough, but it had already taken a beating from the rapid attacks of the mobile suit. It would not be long until there was a puncture and a loss of air pressure. ChiChi switched to pulse rockets just as Bulma came through the hatch.
"I'm here." Bulma pressed a button on the control panel and ChiChi's seat moved over slightly. An extra one came out of the ground and Bulma jumped onto it.
"What are you going to do?" asked ChiChi.
"There is a second set of controls here. They are a lot more complicated so I have to use them. I figure that if we shower him with ammo that we might be able to do some real damage." The ship was hit again and Bulma fell off her seat.
"You okay?" asked ChiChi, never taking her eyes off her target.
"Yeah." Bulma stood up and sat back down. Then she let her fingers go to work. In a matter of seconds, there was a second set of guns in place on the outside of the ship. The mobile suit was still able to dodge most of the shots, but now it was being hit more often. ChiChi started to cheer when she heard a beep. She looked down at the control panel and then on her weapon controls. What she saw was unsettling.
"Does that mean…?" Bulma frowned.
"We're out of ammo." Bulma hit a few buttons and the weapon controls went back into the panel. Bulma kept typing a way and the ship started to speed up. "We're going to have to outrun it. If we make it to the earth's atmosphere we'll be okay."
"What does that have to do with anything. You don't think it will follow us down to earth?"
"Actually I expect it to follow us." ChiChi gave Bulma a worried look, wondering it the fall earlier had more of an effect than her friend was letting on. Bulma saw it through the corner of her eye. "Don't worry. I have a plan. When we get back to earth we'll destroy it, but first we have to get there. I suggest that you hold on tight. We're going to get hit a lot." Bulma entered a command as ChiChi flashed her yet another worried look. Suddenly the ship propulsion started to kick in and they were going 4 times their original speed. Both women held desperately onto anything they could as the mobile suit easily hammered them with multiple blasts. The straight line of flight made them an easy target, but they were now moments away from their destination. Bulma slowed the ship down and WHAM! The ship hit the ionosphere hard.
"We made it." ChiChi held on even tighter, though, because the ride was rockier than ever. "How are we going to get rid of the mobile suit?"
"After we break through the ionosphere we are going to blow the ship. That should give us plenty of time to set up for our next attack."
"How long…?" In the middle of her question the ship came out of the ionosphere and stopped shaking. Bulma quickly went to the controls and stopped the ship's engine.
"Hit the fourth, red button now!" ChiChi smashed the button with her fist. Realizing what she did, ChiChi blushed.
"Oops." An alarm sounded in the room. The screen was flashing red. In between each flash it showed the timer. It was down to 14.
"Here we go." There was a loud metallic sound. The escape pod was freed from the rest of the ship and began to fall down to the ground at high speeds. ChiChi was a little more than worried.
"We're going to crash!"
"No. We just have to play dead for a few seconds longer. You'll see." Just then, the mobile suit came out of the ionosphere. It saw the ship standing motionless. Its sensors also picked up a falling mass down below. Ignoring the inactive mass it approached the ship. As soon as it was within 3 feet of the side the mobile suit was caught in the enormous explosion the darkened the sky for 50 yards. Bulma smiled and turned the engines to the escape pod on. The pod aligned itself with the ground and was soon floating normally.
"So it's dead, right?" To ChiChi's amazement, Bulma shook her head.
"No. As I said, we just slowed it down. Now we can destroy it. Bulma stood up from her seat and opened the hatch. She dropped through and ChiChi followed her. Bulma went back over to the air lock and opened it. ChiChi was confused.
"What are you going to do?" Bulma smiled at her friend.
"Don't you mean what are we going to do?" ChiChi was more confused than ever. "I know it's been a long time since we've had real combat, but don't tell me you've forgotten about the Saiyan Guards." Suddenly everything was making sense to ChiChi.
"That's right! We can use them. That's why you didn't use them in space; we wouldn't have been able to breathe."
"Right. The suits would have made us too slow and clumsy to be effective. We can only use them here." ChiChi started to look around the cabin.
"So where are they?"
"Where they are the easiest to get to; your Guards are right inside the sleeve of your suit. Just press the wrist down and they'll activate. Watch." Bulma pressed the wrists of her suit. Almost instantaneously her hair went black and into a long ponytail. She gathered her ki for a moment before letting it explode forth, shredding her space suit. She was now wearing her pink, tiger stripped fighting gear. ChiChi followed the lead and a few seconds later was in her black, tiger stripped fighting gear, and her hair in a long ponytail. The two fighters gave each other confident glances just as the smoke cleared above and the mobile suit made its way over to its new target.
"You ready?"
"Ummhmmm. What about you? Are you ready?" ChiChi's eyes narrowed slightly. There was a very serious look on her face.
"I've been ready." ChiChi was up and gone after the mobile suit before Bulma could react.
"Guess she was ready."
**********
Garlic Jr. laughed hysterically as the smoke rose from his body. Boo, who had moved back a few feet, was now getting very pissed off. Garlic finally calmed himself down enough to look at his adversary.
"You fool! I am immortal. I cannot die. If you will not give me the energy I need I will take it from you!" Garlic started to raise his aura. Swirls of energy were gathering around him. Unable to contain himself, Garlic Jr. started laughing hysterically again. Boo, on the other hand, began to calm down. In fact, Boo turned around and started to float away, muttering things under his breath.
"You can't leave now, Boo. I own you!" The now delusional Garlic Jr. flew off after the pink demon. He circled around in front of Boo before grabbing him around the neck and choking the life out of him. Boo was motionless in massive arms of Garlic. "Were you saying something just now that you would like to share with the rest of us?" The evil grin never left Garlic's face as he intensified his grip. He was surprised, though, when Boo effortlessly broke his hold and stood toe to toe with him. A sinister grin came over the face of Boo.
"I said that I had no intention of killing you." Boo almost instantaneously attacked after that, shoving his fist deep into the gut of Garlic Jr. The blue demon was curled over, completely unable to make a sound. Boo calmly moved his fist out of his enemy's stomach, floated over to the exposed back and rammed his elbow into it. Garlic snapped straight up, still unable to say anything but obviously in a lot of pain. The look on Boo's face was now one of disdain. "You are not a worthy opponent, not like the fusion. I must face him again, and next time I will be more powerful than anything he has seen before." Boo hovered softly for a moment, anticipating his rematch with Gogeta. It truly was the driving force in his life now. He slowly moved away from the prone Garlic Jr. and landed on a rock. Boo stood still, unflinching, with his back to his enemy. Behind him, Garlic Jr. was finally able to gasp for his first breath.
"You…idiot…I…will…kill…you…" Garlic gathered some energy in his hand and blatantly charged Boo. Still the pink fighter did not turn around. Garlic reared back and swung a vicious punch into Boo's back…that went right into Boo's back. Garlic tried with all of his might but he was not able to pull his hand out. In fact, that more he struggled the more it went in.
"Whomever told you about me forgot to tell you one thing that might have saved you; I can absorb people." Boo could feel the horror flowing through Garlic's veins. "I don't care that you are an immortal. You have two things that I can use. Your ki energy, while small, will bring me closer to my goal. Your ability to manipulate the Dead Zone, however, is what I want. It will allow me to escape this forsaken place and take my revenge on the fusion." Garlic Jr.'s upper torso was now completely absorbed into Boo's body with no way to get out. "But before I go to earth I must build my strength for battle. I will not allow that fusion to defeat me again!" The blue demon being sucked into Boo's body gave one last try to escape, but it was futile. He was pulled all the way in and Boo felt his energy serge through his body. It wasn't much, but for what he had planned next, he didn't need a lot. "Now that I have the power, it is time to leave this place once and for all. I vow never to come back." Boo pointed a finger forward and the essence on the Zone started to crack. The smile of triumph melted onto Boo's face when a clear portal formed in front of him. "It is now the beginning of the end for you, fusion." He stepped through the portal and disappeared.
**********
The mobile suit had its hands full now. It had already destroyed the ship and the escape pod, but the two life forms that it was now hunting weren't as simple. The mobile suit fired three more rounds at the woman in black, but they didn't come anywhere close to connecting. The next target was the one in pink, but it sliced off the gun of the mobile suit before it could even load the ammo. Now it was defenseless. The one in pink chopped off the right leg and arm, almost simultaneously. The one in black sliced off the left leg and arm with her foot. The sparks were flying now and the mobile suit could only stay afloat. The last image it sent was the two life forms coming in for a duel attack, fists forward. The screen went blank after that and the signal was lost. Dr. Boo was very upset.
"I am surrounded by incompetence! That suit was supposed to be mobile!" He stormed off to the left side of the laboratory where there were three oversized test tubes. Inside of them could be seen the shapes of bodies. Dr. Boo sighed. "I didn't want to have to send you out so soon, but I have to start now or else that damn Bulma Briefs will ruin my plans again. Aspa!"
"Yes, Doctor?" answered the computer.
"Activate Androids A and C."
"What about Android B, Doctor?" The computer hesitated a little during its question. Dr. Boo looked back across the laboratory disapprovingly.
"You will do as I say. Activate Androids A and C. Leave B in stasis."
"Yes sir." The voice sounded dejected. Dr. Boo walked back across the laboratory and up to the main computer.
"Listen to me. You owe me. You do as I say or I pull the plug on the both of you. You got it?" The computer was silent for a moment. "I didn't hear you, or should I just pull the plug now?"
"I will obey, Doctor." Now the computer's voice sounded defeated. Dr. Boo smiled.
"I am glad to hear it. Android B is too valuable for me to lose because of you incompetence. I hope you understand that."
"Yes, sir."
"Good. Now send Androids A and C out into Satan City."
"What is their mission?" Dr. Boo thought for a second.
"Bulma Briefs has already started to interfere before I was ready. Maybe we should just skip ahead in the plan…bring me the body of Son Gohan, preferably alive."
"Yes, Doctor Boo." The computer hummed with life for a moment. The test tubes containing the first and third androids disappeared into the roof. Dr. Boo was very happy.
"Aspa?"
"Yes, sir?"
"You've done a good job. I am proud of you." Dr. Boo walked away and exited the laboratory, turning the lights off.
