The Lost

Disclaimer: I don't own anything DBZ, although I WISH I DID!



On Babidi's Ship, Buu is about to hatch



Gohan had just reached his max in SSJ 2. Of the two watching (Shin and Tom), Tom was the most surprised. "Wow, and to think I though I was the strongest. I am nowhere near him. Rats, I better train harder after this. (Note: You didn't REALLY think I was going to make Tom the strongest in the series did you?)



Later



Now Buu is free. Gohan and Tom are in the air and Dabura has just been sent into the rocks. "Tom, we'll have to attack him together. Maybe we'll have a chance." Gohan said.

"Easy for you to say, you're the most powerful of the two of us." Tom said. Gohan was a little dumbfounded. "Yes, feel your power, you ARE 100 if not 1000X stronger than me." Tom actually felt hurt admitting this.

"This is NOT the Tom I know. The Tom I know would have fought with all he had and would be trying to find a way to out wit his opponent when he couldn't out power it." Gohan said with a stern look on his face.

"You're right, you're right." Tom said with his eyes closed. Then he opened them with a smirk on his face. "All right! LET'S DO IT!" He yelled. The two darted towards Buu.

Gohan charged at Buu and punched him constantly; while he was distracting Buu, Tom charged up a Uni-Power Beam attack. When Buu punched Gohan out of the way, Tom fired. It took out a good chunk of Buu. However Buu just regenerated and laughed like crazy.

"You blast Buu!" Buu said cheerfully yet questionably. "NOW BUU BLAST YOU!" His face changed to anger. He blasted Tom to the ground. He reverted back to normal and lost consciousness. Now it was just Gohan and Buu.



Later at Kame's Lookout



"I sense him, I can sense Shin." Goku said, then he looked surprised. "I sense another weak power level, it may be Gohan. I'm going to check it out." With that, he used his instant transmission to get to the battlefield. When he arrived, he saw Tom, but no Gohan (He just missed Shin, Kabito, and Gohan leaving for the Ki planet). Tom moaned. "Easy Tom, I'll take you to Dende." Goku said. 'Gohan where are you?' Goku picked up Tom and Instant Transmission back to Kame's Lookout.

"Hey, it's Gohans friend." Krillien said looking surprised. "Is he?"

"No, Dende can you..." Goku said.

"Of course I can." Dende said, he walked up and healed Tom. Tom fully opened his eyes and got up.

"Go...Goku?" Tom said weakly, and then he snapped awake. "Where are Gohan and the Supreme Ki? Where's Buu?" Goku just stayed silence.

"Later Tom, I'll tell you later." Goku said.



Later when everyone was at Kame's lookout



"I'm sorry to tell you this, but Gohan and Vegeta are dead." Goku said, everyone gasped. "Buu killed them both."

Chi Chi fainted, Bulma yelled. Tom stood behind Videl, his arm on her shoulder, both look devastated however Videl was worse. "I know how you feel Videl." Tom said sadly.

"No, No you can't possibly know who I feel. I...I love him." Videl cried as a tear went down her cheek and into a puddle. An image of Gohan appeared. "Gohan." She said quietly. Then she turned around and cried on Tom. "Why, why him?" Tom gently hugged her for he was, of course, the only one to comfort her.



Later





Videl is lying on a ledge; Tom is leaning on the pillar next to her.

"It's just too hard." Bulma complained. "For me to believe, for Gohan to beat something like Cell but he couldn't stand up to a fat, disgusting..." She started to cry.

"Yes I know." Ox king said. "Think how it is on Chi Chi, she's lost her husband AND her son. Gohan is Dead!" He cried.

Videl had enough and got up. "Dead Dead DEAD! How can you say that? We haven't even found a body yet and you're, acting like we've already buried him." She cried.

Everyone was silence, Krillien decided to tell her the truth. "Videl I'm sorry, I lost a friend too. But, if we can't fell his energy, well, then that means he's passed on." He said sadly.

"STOP SAYING THAT!" Videl said. "I don't believe." Tears came from her eyes. She walked to a ledge. "I absolutely refuse to believe it. He can't be gone before we ever had a chance together." She said. Tom came up and put his hand on her shoulder. She looked and smiled. 'At least Tom knows how I feel, we both lost a great friend and we're the only ones who still think he's alive.' She thought.

"Krillien, don't you DARE every bring up that no Energy sensing equals dead person cause I think Gohan is still alive, just far away." Tom said a little angrily.



Later



'Gohan, I wasn't able to help save you. If you are dead, I'll make sure you are avenged. There's only one way to be able to beat Buu.' He went to Goku, who was tanking a very short break from training Goten and Trunks. "Goku, is the Hyperbolic Time actually able to give me a years worth of training in one day?"

"Yes, Tom. Are you asking..." Goku said.

"Yes, may I use it to train." Tom begged.

"Very well, we'll need all the help we can get." Goku said.

Tom walked up to Videl. "Videl, I'll be gone for a day, training. If anything happens, make sure they get me too." He said.

"What, Tom how will one day of Training do anything?" Videl asked. (Note: They are walked towards the chamber doors)

"You'd be surprised." Tom walked towards the Time Chamber and entered it. "See you in a day." And he closed the door behind him.





One day later (Note: Goku is gone and Goten and Trunks had been able to Fuse as regular Saiyans)





Piccolo was talking to Dende when he felt a huge power. "What in the world is THAT!" He said shocked.

Krillien and Yamcha felt it too. "Wow, where is that coming from, is it Buu?" Krillien asked.

"It's heading this way, everyone get ready." Piccolo said. Goten and Trunks where ready to fuse, while everyone else who can fight made poses. Then they saw who it was, it was Tom!

"Hey guys, just finished my training." Tom said. Everyone was jaw dropped.

"Man Tom, what did you do in there, your power. It's through the roof." Krillien said.

"I just trained my heart out that's all." He smirked.



Later, when Buu is starting to eat everyone





"Videl, this way." Tom said, he grabbed her and ran with Dende and Mr. Popo. They where nearing the edge of the Lookout when Videl tripped (Tom let go when they neared the edge). "VIDEL!" Tom said, he ran to get her, but Mr. Popo pushed him and Dende off the edge. As he fell, Tom saw Videl get hit by the beam and turned into chocolate. 'NO! First Gohan, now Videl.' As he fell, he started to cry. His tears where moving upwards (duh!) and he yelled. "NOOOOO!" No long after he landed, he vowed. 'Buu, even if it kills me, I will avenge my only friends, the ones that you killed. I'll wait for your guard to be down, then I'll show you my true power.' "BUUUUU!"



What is this new power Tom has? Will it be enough to stop Buu? Find out next time on Dragon Ball Z!



Notes: I am tired of people hating me for making Tom so strong. I was planning on him to APPEAR to be the strongest, then I'd show he isn't. Isn't that what they always do on DBZ, show no one is every the strongest. Anyway, Next chapters happens when Gohan returns. I NEED A TON OF REVIEWS TO CONTINE! Oh, and please no flames!
