Ok, now that I have the heavy stuff out of the way, we can dig a bit deeper into the meat of this story. So, hold on, brace yourselves, and prepare for another chapter!
Chapter 3 : The Rebirth of Evil
Goku and Uub stood on the ground and faced off against one another. They had been sparring for nearly six hours and probably would for about six more. The two of them just never quit. As that thought raced through Goku's head, he thought of someone else who never quit when he trained with him. His son, Gohan. The momentary lapse of thought gave Uub the edge he needed to score a key blow, and Goku slumped to the ground, still not realizing what had hit him. He only thought about his son.
Uub looked on as Goku knelt on the ground. "Why doesn't he get up?" Uub thought, "He has plenty of energy left. Maybe its a ruse! I'd better be on guard!" Goku looked up at Uub and deciphered the quizical look on his face rather quickly.
"I'm sorry, Uub...just thinking about other things..."
"Goku, you can't think about 'other things' when fighting. You've always taught me not to. When you lose focus, you lose fights," Uub replied, quoting his mentor.
"Yes, I know," Goku responded. "I just couldn't help myself. For a moment, you reminded me of Gohan..." With that, Goku trailed off and Uub began to walk over toward him.
"Mentor," Uub said in a voice that was not entirely his own, "your emotion is a weakness. You must cleanse yourself of it!"
"What?" a startled Saiyan replied.
"I said," Uub said again, this time in a voice that definitely wasn't his, it was much to menacing, almost evil. "Your emotion is weakness. You must cleanse yourself of it. Or else I will."
"What?" Goku restated. "What is going on, Uub? Why are you talking like this?"
"I will show you, Goku..." And, with that, Uub raced in and delivered a haymaker to Goku. Goku wasn't ready for his attack and was sent hurtling back. He caught himself near the treeline, and hovered there, watching Uub, wondering what was going on.
"Fine, don't attack me, fool!" Uub again blasted for Goku, this time dropping a spin kick onto the side of his head. Or, at least, trying to. Goku just barely got an arm in the way of the blow, blocking it.
"What are you doing, Uub?"
"Uub? Hah! Uub is no more. I am again, BUU!" With that, Uub exploded into a mass of flesh, then reformed into Majin Buu. The short, fast warrior before Goku was DEFINITELY Buu, but what had just happened? Goku surely didn't know the answer to that question, but he did understand what to do. He flashed into Super Saiyan without seemingly using a whit of power and raced at Buu.
Buu, however, was too fast for Goku. He stepped aside of Goku's attack and began to taunt him. "I almost feel pathetic, having had to be trained by such a weakling as you!" Buu, now rushed at his Super Saiyan enemy and backhanded him into the trees. Goku arose from the ground, still a bit groggy, and didn't even notice that Buu was diving down at him until he flashed through the canopy of the forest and kicked Goku deeper into it. Goku has having a tough time keeping up with Buu, and THAT was a problem.
"What do you want?" Goku asked from his place kneeling on the ground as he wiped the blood from his mouth. Buu responded by beating his chest and letting out an annoying "whoo whoo" sound. Goku remembered that bit of Buu from their last fight. He also remembered how he won that fight, with the help of the entire planet and Vegeta and even Hercule. Goku set his feet as he stood and began to gather the power necessary to reach the next level. Before he could reach it, however, Buu nailed him, out of the blue, with an energy beam.
"There is no way I can win this fight right now," Goku thought to himself. "So, I guess I'll have to win it later. I'm gonna need help on this one." With that thought, Goku brought his hand in front of his face and executed an Instant Transmission. He had found the biggest other energy source on the planet almost immediately. Vegeta.
In Vegeta's Gravity Chamber, he and Trunks were having a workout when Goku appeared. They were both quite startled, but they understood something must be wrong when they saw Goku's tattered clothing and his weak energy. The moment Goku arrived, they both opened their senses to see what had done this to Goku and found only one likely suspect. Majin Buu.
Wow...I hope that was a good cliffhanger. Sorry about those first two depressing chapters, I had to set the scene. But, now I have only to advance my little plot, so keep reading and enjoy!
