Cindi flew yet another lap over the alien planet she was stranded on, she was getting very bored, and somewhat anxious.

'Don't worry, Gohan will destroy Buu before he hurts your mother,' SK's mind tried to comfort hers.

'We both know there is little chance of that old weirdo finishing the 'ritual' before Buu destroys the entire galaxy,' replied Cindi's mind sternly.

SK sighed from where he stood, Goku took that as a 'this-is-going-to-take- so-long-it's- ridiculous' sigh and nodded to himself in agreement.

SK was worried about Cindi, she did look like a mature person on the outside, but she was still a frantic seven year old kid with an IQ that would've rivalled Einstein's.

Cindi closed her eyes and tried to find her older brother's mind, '27? Can you hear me?' she thought to him.

'Yo li'l sis, what's happenen with the gang?' came 27's slang mind.

'How is Mum? I'm getting worried with Buu and all on that planet. . .' she thought sadly.

'She's cool. We're hangin out in this bogus bomb shelter. Aquaria's havin a snooze on the bunker,' replied 27.

'Good, I'll check up on you in a few minutes, okay?' Cindi asked 27 telepathically.

'Okay dudette, smell ya later!' finished 27's mind.

Cindi tried to hold back tears of loneliness as she thought about her mother, and her father.



Aquaria sat up, "I cant sleep. . ." she mumbled sombrely.

"Maybe you just need a li'l air dudette," 27 suggested.

"Okay, are you coming?" asked Aquaria.

"Sure, I'll go first. Just in case the bubblegum dude is still there," 27 smiled, opening up the hatch to the surface.

27 looked out, and then stopped in his tracks, "Aquaria, stay here."

"Why? What happened?!" squeaked Aquaria.

"It's not safe, stay down here and don't move," 27 commanded her.

"Okay. . ." Aquaria nodded quietly.

27 jumped out of the bomb shelter and closed the hatch behind him.

"Hey! Who are you?" called 27 angrily as he watched the back of a very tall, not to mention ugly, thing wearing white pants and had a weird 'thing' coming out of the top of his head.

The thing turned around and smirked at the small, blue and black spotted android, "I am Buu."

"Dude, you lost a lotta weight." 27 commented, his pale face void of any emotion.

"You're quite a short little thing, what are you?" Buu frowned.

"An android, number 27 of the Red Ribbon line," 27 told him strongly.

Buu looked uninterested, "This is boring. . ." he yawned.

27's face remained emotionless.

Buu smirked evilly, "I'm actually kind of hungry. . ."

Aquaria, who was listening, gulped.

27 stood his ground and raised his hand, threatening to fire a ki blast, "Leave now."

Buu laughed, evilly.

Aquaria screwed her eyes shut and hid under the bunker in the bomb shelter as 27, her only companion, was turned into chocolate.

'I swear. . .' thought Aquaria, 'Never to eat chocolate again.'



Cindi was flying over the clearing that Gohan and the rest were in, when she clutched her middle and squeaked. Cindi dropped out of the sky with a definite 'crash' and SK felt her pain ripple through him, and winced.

Cindi could feel her insides, namely her older brothers, writhe and thrash as they felt 27's ki disappear as he was eaten.

"What's wrong?!" asked Goku, a little stunned.

"27. . ." Cindi grunted, trying to hold the pain in, "Buu. ate. him." she winced.

Cindi could feel the atmosphere of the clearing suddenly become gloomy and mournful. After a while the pain stopped and Cindi sat down and tried to hide her grief.

'You do know what this means SK,' Cindi thought to the midget.

'What?' came SK's reply.

"Mum might be in trouble. . ." Cindi stated aloud, "I'm going."

Goku caught her arm, "You wont be strong enough to stop him. Aquaria can always be revived by the Dragon Balls."

"I don't care, I have to do something apart from watching that old creep read his comics!" Cindi growled, "I am an android, not a mere household appliance. I can think for myself, and I think that I will leave right now." Cindi hissed, wrenching her arm out of his grip.

Kibit snorted, "Don't think I'm going to teleport you back to Earth."

"I'll fly." Cindi snapped as she prepared to leave.

"Cindi, you cannot save your mother. She is more than likely to be dead," SK told her from where he stood, he was the only one not watching her.

Cindi's head snapped to his direction, "Butt out midget-man!" she snapped coldly.

"You know she is dead Cindi." SK continued.

"She is not!" cried Cindi.

Goku and Gohan gulped inwardly, Cindi was either going to run off crying, or SK would get a very painful death.

"Then go. So you can see how dead she really is." SK suggested coldly.

Cindi blinked back tears, "She is not dead!!!" she screamed, her ki creating an eerie halo around her body.

"She is." SK told her calmly, although he knew that Aquaria was alive.

Cindi glared at him, then stalked off to find some solitude on the planet.

Gohan sighed and shook his head, Cindi almost reminded him of himself when he was little, 'Well she has got some of your DNA in her,' a voice in the back of his head reminded him.

SK felt a little remorse in what he had done to Cindi, it wasn't exactly fair, but Cindi would have died had she gone back and tried to fight Buu.



Cell waited impatiently for Yemma to revive him, "Hurry it up Yemma," he growled, his muscular, green body tense.

Yemma frowned, regretting his decision, "Alright. . ." he muttered.

Cell squinted at the sudden intensity of light, then found himself back on Earth. The best part was 'no halo'

Cell smirked to himself and flew over the landscape to where he could sense Aquaria's ki.

Cell frowned at the landscape, there was only rubble where cities once stood, and only a few humans left. Cindi's ki was quite far away, along with androids 22-26 and 28, but not 27. Cell frowned, something had happened here. . . and now 27 was gone.

He saw the bomb shelter that Aquaria's ki was coming from, and knocked on the door. No response. He knocked again, and thought he heard a faint whimpering.

Cell was worried, maybe Aquaria was hurt or something. The door was locked.

"Aquaria, please open the door," asked Cell gently, knowing that she could hear him.

Aquaria opened her blurry eyes when she heard Cell's voice, 'It can't be. . .' she thought.

She unlocked the door and peeked out, "Cell?" she asked timidly.

Cell opened the door wider, and smiled at Aquaria, happy to see her again at last. Aquaria smiled back. Cell looked her over, her clothes were dirty and torn, her hair was falling out of place and she had acquired several small cuts here and there, her eyes were weary and slightly dull, but seeing him gave her a little hope that she desperately clung to.

"Cell. . . y-you came back! After all this, thank you so much," she smiled gratefully.

"What happened? Are you alright?" he asked her, looking at a rather bad cut on her arm.

"Buu destroyed everything, only a few humans are left. . . and he ate 27 too. . ." she sobbed.

"Shhh. . . it's okay, I wont let anything hurt you," Cell comforted her, they embraced tightly.

Cell's eyes snapped open when he heard Aquaria's breath catch, and then her body fall limp as a energy beam pierced her back. Aquaria was dead.
