Kai started to explain to us the story of Buu and Babidi and everything that went along with it. I became worried, not really for my own sake but for Kai's. I didn't want him to get hurt, but the way things were going it seemed like a very likely possibility.

We eventually caught up with the two men that Kai claimed were working with Babidi hid as we saw 2 others with Babidi. I was curious as to who they were, but not even Kai seemed to know which in itself gave me a bad feeling. I was even more disturbed when the two men from the tournament were very violently killed. I gasped a bit, my hand covering my mouth. I hadn't seen such dark, ruthless power since the Supreme Kai of Darkness.

The man who had red skin looked up towards our hideout, spotting us and grinning, "Master Babidi…I believe we have some company". We all cringed a bit and Babidi looked at his friend, "Deborah…Please show our visitors up there we don't approve of being spied on". He grinned slyly as Kai's eyes widened as he looked over at Kabuto, having the same bad idea as I.

Deborah flew up to where we all were, quickly getting to Kibito, singling him out, and blasting him without harming us, although killing him. I jumped to my feet, as did the rest of the group, all in a great state of shock. I yelled, "Who do you think you are?!" And Kai grabbed my hand quickly, pulling me back,

"Alix! Don't do this…we can't risk you fighting and causing an explosion to release Buu! You must stay calm!" I looked at Deborah angrily and stepped back, doing as Kai told me out of habit from when I was under his guardianship.

Babidi cackled a bit as Deborah flew back down, a stern look on his face, "Well, well, if it isn't the rat Kai! Just the creature I was hoping to see!" I clenched my teeth, my patience wearing thin with these bastards. Kai glared, "We won't let you release Majin Buu…do you understand?" Babidi seemed delighted by this answer because he laughed, his voice very obnoxious and high-pitched, "Oh no? I'd like to disagree with you there, rat! I think he will come out, and when he does, he can kill you all! How does that suit you?" He laughed again and quickly walked inside a small- looking spacecraft with Deborah.

Goku looked over at Kai, "Should we go inside?" Kai stood for a moment, thinking hard, "Yes, I believe we should, but we need a few people to stay outside just in case…" Piccolo nodded at Kai,

"Krillin and myself can stay out here while the rest of you go inside. Hurry!" Gohan, Vegeta, Goku, Kai and I nodded, walking down towards the entrance, carefully examining the inside, then stepping in, watching our backs, not exactly trusting Babidi at the moment.

A room light up and we looked around, seeing a door at the far end and what looked like an exit in the middle of the floor, Kai sighed, looking at us, "Babidi is going to test us with his strongest fighters, if we pass, we can get to the next level of the ship. There are 4 levels, but only 3 stages; Babidi is on the bottom floor. As we beat whoever appears, we will be allowed to pass". Vegeta smirked a bit, his arms crossed in front of his chest, "Well why don't we just blast the damned thing open? It'd be much easier that way!" Kai's eyes widened as he looked at Vegeta,

" We can't risk it! Any slight disruption could hatch Buu, and we can't have that!" I looked around, "Well, we should decide who's fighting then" Kai looked at the floor,

"I forgot to mention that all the energy lost is absorbed to help Buu…" I sighed and leaned against the wall, "Great…just peachy…" Vegeta looked over,

"Quit you're whining, Woman, I can beat them all". I glared, hating to be called "woman".

I slowly walked over, Vegeta smirking, I looked at him, "What did you just call me, Vegetable?" He glared as I called him this, Goku seeing the obvious tension right away, came and separated us, "C'mon guys, we're all on the same team here, we need to get along." I crossed my arms in front of my chest and walked to the other end of the room, leaning against the wall, Vegeta sniffed, "Well one thing is certain, I'm fighting first, got it?" We all nodded and looked as the hatch where the fighters were to come out began to open. I raised an eyebrow as the creature from before stepped out, he addressed himself as Fui-Fui, claiming he would be the first and last fighter, but Vegeta stepped up, eager to get going.

Vegeta fought hard, even after the gravity was changed, killing Fui- Fui almost as easily as Trunks had defeated Frieza. The hatch in the middle of the floor opened again and we all hopped down, deciding Goku would go next. I didn't want to fight because I was scared that I'd release too much energy, causing Buu to be able to hatch.

We landed on the next level and Goku smiled, looking around, Kai unbelieving that the fighters were actually eager to fight, nor did they seem to be taking it seriously. I chuckled to myself, leaning back against the wall, waiting for the next fighter. After a few minutes we saw a very large, and extremely ugly creature appear, who looked very destructive.

He and Goku battled it out for a while until suddenly we were transported to a pitch-black planet, the home planet of the creature. He fought Goku until Goku went Super Saiyan, creating light. We quickly learned the creature ate light and energy and tried to eat all of Goku's. Luckily, Goku had plenty to spare, so he charged up as much as he could, causing the monster to explode from eating too much. I grinned, seeing how easily he was defeated. We were transported back to the room and the hatch in the middle of the floor opened again, allowing us to get to the final level before Babidi and Deborah.

We all hopped down, deciding Gohan could fight whoever was next. Kai looked at me and whispered, "Alix…I have a bad feeling about this. Everyone is used to winning now…what if Babidi sends someone we can't beat?" I grinned a bit and looked down, "These guys don't lose…" He sighed a bit as we all waited for the final fighter to appear. Before the hatched upon an hour or so later, I started to feel a strong dark energy. It wasn't strong enough to be alarming, but it did rival with Gohan's own power level.

I watched as the hatch opened, revealing Deborah, the man from before who killed Kibito. Gohan realized he was in for more of a battle than his father of Vegeta had faced. They started fighting, immediately being transported to a different planet so they could fight without any problem. We all watched, as the battle seemed fairly evenly matched, neither fighter having the upper hand.

After a while, Deborah stopped, deciding to go back, leaving us saying that he and Babidi had found the ultimate fighter. I was a little confused because it seemed that if Deborah had gone longer, he might have come close to defeating Gohan, so why did they need another fighter, especially one stronger than Deborah? I assume Kai figured out what we were all about to learn because he had a look of shock and terror plastered on his face as he turned to Vegeta.
