Buu continued to scream in pain, now reduced to an unintelligible being. He continued his shriek as steam poured from the holes in his body, part of the transformation caused by the loss of his components.

.Meanwhile, inside Buu, Vegetto was flying through yet another cavern, this one was blue, long and thin. there were strange pores lining the walls, and he blinked in shock as it all glowed gold and the room became hot.

'Nani? Why'd it go hot all of a sudden? Is this part of his collapse?' Vegetto mused as he flew along- sweat began to roll down his temples and neck.

'Damn it. it's getting -too- hot.' His eyelids dropped and he began to feel light-headed, his flight path veering erratically. He stopped and raised his left arm as he heard a hissing noise, the bottom of Piccolo's cocoon having fried on the burning surface.

Another noise then startled him, he let out a frightened yelp and dodged as a hot beam of gas flew up past him. Looking up, he followed it's path, and there, in the ceiling was a speck of light from the outside.

'Alright!'

He flew up close to the entrance, formulating a plan of escape, unfortunately, the easiest option was off to him.

'Shit.. if I was still to people I'd blast that beam back.' a smirk found it's way onto his lips. 'but I'm not, so I guess I'm gonna' have to take the 50/50 option. though if that blast hits me, it'll melt even my bones.' he paused as he heard another rumbling sound. He turned his head to check if the pore had opened yet. It was still closed.

'Damn it.'

The huge pillar of steam was advancing quickly through the tunnel of whence he'd came. It was on a direct course, about to hit him when... the smallest creak and Vegetto was away, through the hole and dodging demise.

"Yatta!" The fusion cried, finally outside of the Majin. He returned to his normal size along with Gohan and the rest- who floated, freed, in the air for a moment before falling to the earth below, still unconscious.

Vegetto patted his stomach, a huge grin plastered on his face.

"He did it!" Dai-Kaiou-Shin cried joyfully. The super-fusion was finally outside of Buu - and he'd rescued the others! Now he could fight and destroy the weakened Buu, with no problems!

"They saved everyone! They did id -Dai-Kaiou-Shin-sama!"

.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.: .:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.: .:.

The super-fusion thought quick and whisked his comrade and family to a safe cave, away from the initial wrath of buu and safe enough from the upcoming fight. He brushed his fingers lightly over Trunks' face, his heart softening as he took in the pale features. He turned, slightly to where he had lain his other two sons. He checked their pulses and ruffled their hair affectionately, calming all the while. It was always better to be safe than sorry.

Some distance away, one namek, on human and a dog sat, watching as the monster's ki continued to drop, though his body expanded. They were struck speechless when five familiar forms appeared in thin air, and after a moment or so, dissapeared again. Bee, the puppy, decided on a sudden urge something was yet again amiss, and started barking into the air, moments later a form appeared behind the observers.

"Ohayo, Dende, Satan!"

Dende scrambled scrambled to attention and Hercule jumped a good eight feet in the air, before realising it was not the nasty creature come to end his life, but actually the familiar guy from earlier- strange, he was blond now.

"Ohayo, Goku-san!" Dende replied, stumbling forward and picking up the curious puppy, who was currently sniffing about the fusion's leg as if there were some great mystery about it- in true-ness, there was, it smelt kind of like coffee candy.

"Call me Vegetto" The saiyan smirked, patting the pup affectionately, it licked his hand in greeting.

"Okay- Go- Ve-Vegetto-san!" Dende was rather scared of Goku's other half, but the fusion seemed to hold him with a friendly gaze, so he managed a meek smile.

"Wha-what are you doing here?" Satan asked, stuttering and sat kapuut on a large rock. "Have you come to tell me to fight Buu?"

A loud laugh burst from the fusion's throat, not quite innocent humor, but not really mocking rapture. "Hell no!" The fusion grinned. "There's no chance you could take Buu on, even at the start! I thought he might break down when I removed the fat asshole, but I was wrong." His smile turned into a frown. "He's getting stronger, I can feel it."

"No! No!" Dende cried. "He's getting weaker-" He paused. A long silence, and they similtaniously turned their eyes to the cliff-top. "Oh no. he really IS getting stronger!"

.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.: .:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.: .:.

Dai-Kaiou-Shin concentrated, a bead of sweat running down his forehead in the action. If what he heard was true, then Buu's ki wouldn't be going down, like he felt it was- he paused a second. Buu's ki WAS going up- but he was masking it- the creature was getting a more accurate hold on it's power by every second that went past.

Beside the deity, KaiouBito was having a nervous breakdown- sobbing about- how Buu was changing back to the way he was before, that the universe really was doomed.

"That's the- the way he was before he attacked here!" The youth cried. "He's pure evil! The legendary evil!"

"Listen!" Vegetto cried as pink energy burst through the sky, the monster's shrieks increasing in pitch. "Dende! I want you to take Satan out of here! Don't fly- there is too much a risk from the battle we will have- just move as quickly as you can! I stored Gohan and the other's in a cave a kilometre or so from here- head there!"

"Yes Go- Vegetto-san!" Dende nodded, understanding his directions. He locked on to the weak ki, and dragged Satan along.

"Huh? Wait- where are we going? The earth's hero won't just be dragged away from a battle like this!" Satan claimed, working his arm out of Dende's hasty grip. "Mr Satan shall not run awa-" he paused, in his common stance to see the most lethal glare aimed at him, like Vegeta's, but on a taller, just as lethal frame that reeked of power.

"I'm- I'm going now." He stammered, moving off and in front of Dende, then carrying on in a quick sprint.

Steam cleared, dust settled, but the sky continued to darken over. On the tip of the cliff, the weak rock that would crumble like a piece of wet sand, stood the legendary evil, the purest- the most lethal warrior ever -created-. Buu had finnished his transformation, though this new form was rendered without speech, it didn't need make threats to strike fear into the hearts of even the greatest, those that opposed him.

And that's what Vegetto felt in his heart. Fear. His blood ran cold as the creature let out a bone-chilling scream.
