A/N: Still only one review? Man...you people just don't know greatness. ~_O
But hey, at least I'm getting up the chapters really fast! And this one's
even better than the last! Warning for Veggie Fans: There is some slight
Veggie bashing at the end of this chapter. Sorry, I just can't resist
making him suffer. ^_^ Anyways, let's start readin'!
An Empty Makai?!...and The Sugar Sets In
*TIME: 7:00 P.M.*
On a lonely street somewhere, a teenage boy walked along with his bag of candy. He was dressed like a bloody mutant. The boy whistled some unimportant tune as he strolled along, until he ran into another "trick-or- treater".
"Whoah...dude, that is such a rockin' costume!" the teen exclaimed when he saw the other person's costume. The guy was dressed up like a zombie, a VERY real looking zombie. "How'd you get all the accessories? Man, I outta shop at your store next year!"
The zombie just stared at the teen, who was becoming annoyed. "Yoo hoo? Are you deaf? I'm talkin' to you, dude." The zombie still said nothing. The teen gritted his teeth and pulled his fist back. "Alright chump, if you don't answer me, I'm gonna chop you one right on your ugly face!"
Still, it did nothing. The teen swung hard, jabbing the zombie in the face. But, his fist kept going upon contact, and soon the zombie's head was pushed inward. The teen stuttered, "Wh-what? I...busted his head in with a single punch...I'm not THAT strong..."
The zombie made a gruff noise. It brought its hands up to the back of its head and pushed, returning its head to its normal state. The teen backed away slowly, becoming scared. "H-he must be ducking his head into his shirt ...yes, it must be a trick! It must be!!!"
Before the teen could move back anymore, the zombie lashed out and grabbed the teen by the neck. It smiled and squeezed.
"Guh...w-what a-are y-you?...uh~" With that, the zombie dropped the unmoving teen to the ground. It looked up into the sky, where a strange, faint smoke was brewing around. It smiled more, then walked off down the street.
Meanwhile, in Rekai, Koenma sat in his chair. He was becoming impatient.
*C'mon Yusuke...Kuwabara...bring me my report!*
"Oh, calm down, Koenma. They've only been gone for an hour," said Botan, who was floating around on her oar. Koenma glared at her. "Don't you have some spirits to be guiding?"
Botan smiled innocently. "Nope, no one's died today!" (A/N: That teen from before did not "die". He was simply left unconscious. There will be no actual "killing" in this story)
Koenma stared at Botan blankly. "You're hopeless..." he muttered as he leaned back in his chair. Just then, Koenma heard that patter of feet.
"Ah, someone's coming!" Much to Koenma's hope, Yusuke and Kuwabara ran in. "Very good, you've returned! So boys, what do you have for me?"
The two teens looked glum and confused. Koenma stood up in his chair, wondering why they looked so worried.
Yusuke gave Koenma an answer, "Nothing."
"Nothing??!!" Koenma exclaimed, "You couldn't find a thing?!" Kuwabara cringed. "Actually sir, that's exactly what we found. Nothing."
Koenma and Botan's drooping eyelids all rose at this. "Huh?"
"Absolutely nothing." Yusuke looked at the ground and shook nervously.
Botan stuttered, "Y-Yusuke...what do you mean "nothing"?..."
Yusuke looked back up and replied, "It means just what I said. Nothing." Kuwabara finished for him. "It's the Makai, sir. It's...it's...completely empty."
Koenma and Botan froze in shock. "......." Koenma lost his grip on his pacifier-thing, and it fell out of his mouth, hitting the floor with a loud thud, which could be heard easily in the silence.
"...oh my..." Koenma began to regain his composure and he bent over, picking up his pacifier and placing it back in his mouth.
"Now, if you all don't mind, I'm going to go into a panic in 5 seconds." A few seconds past with no one saying anything. And then...
"YYYAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! NOOO! NOOO!!!" Koenma went into an insane fit. He threw off his hat and beat it against the wall. "NOO! THIS IS THE WORST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN!!!"
Yusuke looked at Koenma with concern. "Do you know what it means? Koenma, where are the demons and the monsters and the ghosts?" Koenma struggled to restrain himself, but he managed to point in a certain direction. He pointed...straight down.
"Down...there."
"WHAT?! NO WAY!" Kuwa exclaimed. Yusuke shook nervously again. "Y-you mean...they're a-all in the Human Realm?..."
Koenma was now slowly beating his hat against the floor. "Yes...that's exactly what it means. They couldn't be anywhere else."
Yusuke's anger began to rise. "But that doesn't make sense! What about the Dimensional Gate?! That should've stopped all of them!!!"
"No...that barrier has no meaning in this..." Koenma said softly. Yusuke looked confused. "What do you mean?"
Koenma managed to get out, "I-it wasn't even their mode of escape...no, it was something else. Something that defies all laws and physics..."
Yusuke started getting mad again. "Well, tell us! How did they get out!!" Koenma sighed. "I...I can't, because I don't know how...WAIT!" Koenma suddenly yelled out. "What day is today?! Is today a special day??!!"
The others just stared at Koenma. Kuwabara chose to answer him. "Um...it's Halloween, sir." Realization hit Koenma like a ton of bricks. "YES!! OF COURSE! HALLOWEEN!" Koenma quieted himself down, but still shuddering. "The night of monsters and the living dead..."
"We all know that, but what does that have to do with anything?!" Yusuke was not agreeing with Koenma's ideas.
Koenma turned around, his back to the others. "There's no time to explain...you two have to get back to the Ningenkai immediately!"
"To get rid of all the monsters?" Kuwabara guessed. To his surprise, Koenma shook his head. "Not those monsters. Not the ghosts, nor the goblins, the zombies, the vampires...none of them matter. There are worse...the evilest of all evil beings are down there.."
Yusuke smirked. "Oh, you mean like Toguro? Ha! We can beat any youkais at his level!" Now it was Yusuke's turn to be surprised, as Koenma shook his head again. "No. There are WORSE than Toguro..."
Yusuke began to sweat. "W-worse...than Toguro?..."
Koenma nodded firmly. "Let me explain before you go. You see, there is another realm aside from this one that deals with spirits. It is a place called Otherworld, a dimension ruled by the great Kais. My father does work there sometimes. The main difference with Otherworld is that it deals with the deaths of beings all over the entire universe."
"WHA?!" Yusuke and Kuwabara exclaimed at once. "T-there are...living beings on other...planets?..." Yusuke asked in disbelief.
"Oh yes. It's not that strange, really. Anyway, in Otherworld, some of the most powerful beings in the universe were kept in captivity when they died. All killed by some good force, most likely ones from our Earth."
Koenma paused. The others waited patiently for him to continue. "...as I have concluded, something is allowing the monsters and demons of the spirit realms to roam on Earth this night. I'm worried that...it will affect Otherworld as well."
Kuwabara wiped at his forehead. "Man, that's deep." Koenma rasied a finger into the air. "But don't get down in the dumps just yet. We can't know for sure if the strong demons are REALLY all there. It could be just those pathetic monsters."
Yusuke smiled nervously. "It better be...I'm not in the mood for tough battles tonight..."
"So that's why I want you two to get back down there, right now! We can't take any chances!! Go!!"
Kuwabara and Yusuke nodded, and they rushed off. Koenma sighed as he continued to sweat. He glanced over at Botan, who was twiddling her thumbs nervously.
"Oh, you're still here? Go down with 'em...make sure they don't goof around." Koenma said dully.
"Alright, sir. I'll get going." Botan said quietly. She slowly floated off on her oar. As soon as he was alone, Koenma started rocking back and forth in his chair, sucking on his pacifier numerous times. He looked down at the floor and muttered in fear, "...mommy..."
Back on the streets, four familiar figures walked ever on. Two of them appeared to be rather drowsy.
"Bleh...hey Trunks?"
"Duh huh...yeah Goten?"
"...I LOVE SENZU BEANS!"
"ME TOO!!!!"
The two started dancing around, singing nonsense at the top of their lungs. Hiei covered his ears in disgust and said, "Where does it all go? All that sugar..."
"I think it's gone to their brains...they're acting drunk..." Kurama said. The two saiyans slurred some inaudible words, then they both began eating more of their candy.
Trunks muttered something. "Maybe HE'S high...I'm just playing along...duh huh..." Goten scowled at him. "I am not!...uh...what was I gonna say next?...oh yah...he's the one who's high! I'm just humoring him."
Hiei smirked. "Boys, I hate to say it, but you're both stoned. Stoned on sugar." Drool dripped out of both of the saiyans' mouths. Then without warning they both went Super Saiyan.
"Hey yeah! We're sugar powered!" Goten exclaimed.
"Not just sugar powered!" Trunks said, "We're SUPER SUGAR SAIYANS!"
The boys spread their arms out wide and yelled in unison, "SUPER SUGAR SAIYANS!!!" Kurama chuckled at the two. But when he looked to the side, he noticed Hiei smiling a little as well.
A sly smile appeared on the fox's face and he whispered, "Is that a smile I see on your face, Hiei?" Hiei immediately went red and he disposed of his smile. "No..."
"Admit it, you're starting to like them! You can't not like two cute little kids like that!" Hiei rasied an eyebrow at Kurama. "Honestly, I have NO idea what you're talking about..." Kurama scowled. "Oh, you're impossible!!" (A/N: I know that Hiei liking little kids is OOC for him...but hey, they're the heroes of the story. He HAS to like them ^_^)
Meanwhile, Goten and Trunks were singing a little chant. "OH, WE'RE THE SUPER SUGAR SAIYANS! WE'VE COME TO..." Trunks looked over at Goten. "What rhymes with "saiyans"? Goten shrugged.
"Wait!" Trunks grinned. "I've got a better one!" Trunks whispered something to Goten. Goten nodded as he spoke. "Okay!"
".....WE'RE SUGAR SAIYANS, YES WE'RE THE REAL SAIYANS! ALL YOU OTHER SUGAR SAIYANS ARE JUST IMITATIN'! SO WON'T THE REAL SUGAR SAIYANS PLEASE STAND UP, PLEASE STAND UP, PLEASE STAND UP?..."
The boys seemed to approve of this one, and they continued with it. This time, both youkais covered their ears. "Boys, be quiet! The next neighborhood is coming up!" Kurama yelled. He had to yell since Goten and Trunks' "sugar sayian rap" was being said at the top of their lungs. He also heard a bunch of people from the surrounding houses yelling for them to be quiet. Just then, Hiei nudged Kurama with his shoulder.
"You feel that?" Kurama scratched his head. "No...what is it?" Hiei sighed. "Oh c'mon, it's far too easy to sense a presence THIS dark..." Kurama immediately snapped to attention. "A dark presence?"
"Yes. Well, not just one, many of them. I've had a bad feeling following me ever since we started on this thing." Kurama shuddered. "The whole time? Does that mean..."
"It does," Hiei said plainly, "They're everywhere...all around us, miles away, in the air...everywhere." Kurama began looking around frantically. "But I don't see anything, Hiei!"
"Of course you don't. They are hiding, waiting for something. The question is...what?..."
Back at Videl's house, the Z Warriors were having a good old time. Gohan was doing fine, besides the fact that Videl kept bothering him with the question of "what was annoying him". Funky, and at the same time creepy, music was playing, and Master Roshi was dancing alone, in his pimp suit. He tried to get 18 to dance with him.
"C'mon, baby! You haven't lived 'til you've boogied with the master of swing!" 18 sighed. "I'm allergic..." At this, Roshi just kinda stared at 18. "Allergic? To dancing?..." 18 simply nodded, and she walked over to another area.
"Wah ha! Roshi got turned DOWN!" Yamcha laughed, never missing a chance to make fun of someone. Roshi glared at Yamcha. "Well, I don't see YOU dancin' with any of the ladies! Hmm? Hmmmm??"
"Maybe not right NOW I'm not! But when Bulma arrives, I'm sure I can get her to dance with me!" Disco Krillin interrupted them suddenly. "Dude, won't she be dancin' with Vegeta?" Yamcha laughed at this. "No way. Vegeta's a lousy dancer."
As soon as he said this, the doorbell rang. Everyone turned to face the doorway. "That must be Bulma and Vegeta. I'll get it!" Goku announced. He went to the door and opened it, revealing Bulma dressed up like a mad scientist.
"WHOAH!!" Bulma nearly fell over from the reaction of being greeted by a blue hedgehog. "Oh my...it's just you, Son...what a strange costume." Goku smiled proudly. "I know, but it was really easy to make!" Goku moved to the side to provide Bulma entry to the house, then he held the door open for Vegeta. To his surprise, no one else entered. Goku noticed and stuck his head out the door. "Vegeeeeeeeta? Hello?" Goku stuck his head back in. "Bulma, where's Vegeta?"
"He said to go ahead, that he had to finish up his costume." Goku smiled. "You mean he's actually wearing a costume? Ha, I didn't think he had the guts!"
Goku closed the door behind him and walked back into the main area. Suddenly, there was a loud banging on the door. Everyone turned in that general direction again.
"Ah, THAT must be Vegeta." Goku said. He went back to the door and opened. Upon doing this, Goku was punched hard in the face by a shadowed figure. He rammed up against the wall facing the door. "Ouch!! That smarts!"
Gohan quickly jumped over to his father. "You okay, dad?" Everyone looked at the shadowy figured. It calmly began strolling into the house. As it entered the light, everyone could see who it was.
"...." This is what everything was like for a few moments. The person at the door turned out to be...Cell.
".....AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Just about everyone screamed in terror all at once. Goku and Gohan's faces quickly got serious, and they went into fighting stance. Piccolo ran to their side and went into fighting stance as well. Everyone else was just screaming like maniacs.
"You...how did you get back here?" Goku asked. Cell smiled. "A simple question. But first...I need something..."
Piccolo gritted his teeth. "What do you want?! Tell us now!!"
Cell smirked. "I need...to know...where...the bathroom is..."
Goku and Gohan's expressions became less serious for a moment, confused by Cell's statement. Suddenly, Cell reached up and grabbed the sides of his head. He pulled up, taking his head clean off his shoulders. Underneath his head, was Vegeta's head.
"Cause I've gotta go!!!" the sayian prince exclaimed proudly. Everyone except Bulma fell over anime-style. Vegeta began laughing triumphantly.
"HAAA!! I DID IT! I SCARED EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU! I AM THE MASTER OF HALLOWEEN PRANKS!!!" Vegeta pointed at the ones who were screaming. "You should have seen your faces!! Priceless!!"
Goku smiled nervously. "Wow Vegeta, you sure had us fooled. That costume...it looks so real..."
"Well of course it does." Bulma interrupted. "I'M the one who built."
Gohan laughed to himself. "So you were in on this too? Pretty good trick!"
Vegeta patted his costume. "Isn't it though?...it even has a voice box that makes me sound just like Cell when the head is on! And the lips move too! I guess having a super genius for a wife isn't as bad as I thought it would be..."
Unknown to Vegeta, everyone in the room except for the saiyans and Bulma had crowded around Vegeta, all of them glaring at him. Vegeta nearly jumped out of his costume when he noticed.
"Hey now...it was a joke, idiots. Get it? A harmless joke..." After a few seconds of silence, all of them began yelling at Vegeta.
"DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN, VEGETA!!"
"YOU SCARED US HALF TO DEATH, BAKA!"
"I THINK I WET MY PANTS!"
"PRETENDING TO MAKE CELL COME BACK?! THAT IS NOT FUNNY!!!"
Vegeta slowly shrunk down to the floor as the complaints piled on top of him. He finally managed to slink his way out from under their legs. The prince grunted, "Sheesh, you'd think they could take a joke every now and then."
Then everyone noticed he had gotten away, and they began chasing after him. Vegeta gritted his teeth and he tried to run away from them, racing back into the innards of Videl's home. This left Bulma and the saiyans alone in the main room.
"Should we help him?" Gohan asked. Bulma smirked. "No...this was his idea, not mine. Let 'im suffer..."
Random outbursts were heard from within the house.
"DON'T LET HIM GET AWAY!!"
"LEAVE ME ALONE, DUMBASSES! I NEED TO GO TO THE BATHROOM!!"
"HEY! KEEP CHASING HIM AND MAKE HIM GO ON HIMSELF!!"
"NANI?! THAT'S DISGUSTING!...OUCH!!"
"YEAH! WHACK HIM AGAIN!"
"WILL SOMEONE TELL KAKOROT'S BLASTED ONNA TO PUT THAT FRYING PAN AWAY?!"
"YOU'VE BEEN A BAD BOY, VEGGIE! YOU DESERVE TO BE PUNISHED!" *SMACK*
"HEY!! I DON'T NEED A SPANKING! I'M A GROWN MAN!!!"
The ones in the main hall tried to keep themselves from laughing. Suddenly, a yell that rivaled all the others rang out. "ONNA!!! ASSISTANCE! NOW!!!" Bulma sighed. "I guess I should help him then...he's had enough." Bulma ran off down to hall to help her poor Veggie.
A/N: Bwa ha ha ha!! Veggie's such a naughty boy! ^_^
Vegeta: ~_O.......*is bruised and bandaged up*
Don't worry, Veggie! Time heals all wounds. :p Expect the next chapter within 1 or 2 days. And yes, it gets even better than this!....*waits for something*
Random Fan: How much better is it?
I thought you'd never ask! ^_^ It's a BAZILLION times better! :p Well, maybe not that much, but better! Now, are we all ready? One...two...three! CLICK!
An Empty Makai?!...and The Sugar Sets In

Back on the streets, four familiar figures walked ever on. Two of them appeared to be rather drowsy.
"Bleh...hey Trunks?"
"Duh huh...yeah Goten?"
"...I LOVE SENZU BEANS!"
"ME TOO!!!!"
The two started dancing around, singing nonsense at the top of their lungs. Hiei covered his ears in disgust and said, "Where does it all go? All that sugar..."
"I think it's gone to their brains...they're acting drunk..." Kurama said. The two saiyans slurred some inaudible words, then they both began eating more of their candy.

Goku noticed and stuck his head out the door. "Vegeeeeeeeta? Hello?" Goku stuck his head back in. "Bulma, where's Vegeta?"
"He said to go ahead, that he had to finish up his costume." Goku smiled. "You mean he's actually wearing a costume? Ha, I didn't think he had the guts!"
Goku closed the door behind him and walked back into the main area. Suddenly, there was a loud banging on the door. Everyone turned in that general direction again.
"Ah, THAT must be Vegeta." Goku said. He went back to the door and opened. Upon doing this, Goku was punched hard in the face by a shadowed figure. He rammed up against the wall facing the door. "Ouch!! That smarts!"
Gohan quickly jumped over to his father. "You okay, dad?" Everyone looked at the shadowy figured. It calmly began strolling into the house. As it entered the light, everyone could see who it was.
"...." This is what everything was like for a few moments. The person at the door turned out to be...Cell.
".....AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" Just about everyone screamed in terror all at once. Goku and Gohan's faces quickly got serious, and they went into fighting stance. Piccolo ran to their side and went into fighting stance as well. Everyone else was just screaming like maniacs.
"You...how did you get back here?" Goku asked. Cell smiled. "A simple question. But first...I need something..."
Piccolo gritted his teeth. "What do you want?! Tell us now!!"
Cell smirked. "I need...to know...where...the bathroom is..."
Goku and Gohan's expressions became less serious for a moment, confused by Cell's statement. Suddenly, Cell reached up and grabbed the sides of his head. He pulled up, taking his head clean off his shoulders. Underneath his head, was Vegeta's head.
"Cause I've gotta go!!!" the sayian prince exclaimed proudly. Everyone except Bulma fell over anime-style. Vegeta began laughing triumphantly.
"HAAA!! I DID IT! I SCARED EVERY LAST ONE OF YOU! I AM THE MASTER OF HALLOWEEN PRANKS!!!" Vegeta pointed at the ones who were screaming. "You should have seen your faces!! Priceless!!"
Goku smiled nervously. "Wow Vegeta, you sure had us fooled. That costume...it looks so real..."
"Well of course it does." Bulma interrupted. "I'M the one who built."
Gohan laughed to himself. "So you were in on this too? Pretty good trick!"
Vegeta patted his costume. "Isn't it though?...it even has a voice box that makes me sound just like Cell when the head is on! And the lips move too! I guess having a super genius for a wife isn't as bad as I thought it would be..."
Unknown to Vegeta, everyone in the room except for the saiyans and Bulma had crowded around Vegeta, all of them glaring at him. Vegeta nearly jumped out of his costume when he noticed.
"Hey now...it was a joke, idiots. Get it? A harmless joke..." After a few seconds of silence, all of them began yelling at Vegeta.
"DON'T EVER DO THAT AGAIN, VEGETA!!"
"YOU SCARED US HALF TO DEATH, BAKA!"
"I THINK I WET MY PANTS!"
"PRETENDING TO MAKE CELL COME BACK?! THAT IS NOT FUNNY!!!"
Vegeta slowly shrunk down to the floor as the complaints piled on top of him. He finally managed to slink his way out from under their legs. The prince grunted, "Sheesh, you'd think they could take a joke every now and then."
Then everyone noticed he had gotten away, and they began chasing after him. Vegeta gritted his teeth and he tried to run away from them, racing back into the innards of Videl's home. This left Bulma and the saiyans alone in the main room.
"Should we help him?" Gohan asked. Bulma smirked. "No...this was his idea, not mine. Let 'im suffer..."
Random outbursts were heard from within the house.
"DON'T LET HIM GET AWAY!!"
"LEAVE ME ALONE, DUMBASSES! I NEED TO GO TO THE BATHROOM!!"
"HEY! KEEP CHASING HIM AND MAKE HIM GO ON HIMSELF!!"
"NANI?! THAT'S DISGUSTING!...OUCH!!"
"YEAH! WHACK HIM AGAIN!"
"WILL SOMEONE TELL KAKOROT'S BLASTED ONNA TO PUT THAT FRYING PAN AWAY?!"
"YOU'VE BEEN A BAD BOY, VEGGIE! YOU DESERVE TO BE PUNISHED!" *SMACK*
"HEY!! I DON'T NEED A SPANKING! I'M A GROWN MAN!!!"
The ones in the main hall tried to keep themselves from laughing. Suddenly, a yell that rivaled all the others rang out. "ONNA!!! ASSISTANCE! NOW!!!" Bulma sighed. "I guess I should help him then...he's had enough." Bulma ran off down to hall to help her poor Veggie.
A/N: Bwa ha ha ha!! Veggie's such a naughty boy! ^_^
