Chapter 2: BREAKOUT!
The Dead Zone. A hell within a hell. In its perfect darkness it contained some of the nastiest and vile monsters ever born. To the ones that knew of its existence, it was a last resort to dispose of the 'untouchable' beings of the universe. Garlic and his son Garlic Junior were both permanent residents of it, and soon it would get two more . . .
"Master Dabura, he's ready to be thrown in," a tough, muscular hero from the universe's antiquity stated. He had coarse, blonde hair that ran over his shoulders and a body that depicted strength. He was known as Baer the Great on his home world. In all fairness, he should have taken his place among the great heroes in otherworld. But due to the nature of his death, he was thrown into a semi-purgatory somewhere between Otherworld and HELL. Only in the last few months was he given a chance to prove himself. After the defeat of Buu, a new position had been created in the Otherworld hierarchy. Along with the recently reformed Dabura, Baer had been promoted to the job of watch dog of the final Dead Zone gate.
It was a horrible job to give to a hero, but you should understand the circumstances of how he died before judging the decision made by the kais. A ferocious swarm of aliens had taken over his planet which was located somewhere in the West Kai's quadrant. They killed millions of his kin and if he had waited any longer to strike back they would have become extinct. After everybody was out of the way, they would have spread to other galaxies across outer space and the same thing would have happened to other peoples. He fought his way through hordes or the aliens, but when one was killed, ten would take its place. He had no other choice, so in a final attack, he destroyed his own planet. The alien race was exterminated, but his people died too. He sacrificed millions of lives to save trillions. It was the only thing he could do . . .
"Has the Kai Metal been fused completely around his body?" Dabura asked and Baer nodded. "Very well then. We wouldn't want him to get out. You may toss the Buu child into the void now." Dabura, once king of the Underworld, had been given the chance of keeping his body in Otherworld if he agreed to overlook the door to the Dead Zone. He reluctantly agreed, but King Yamma supplied him with a generous number of lower demons to do all the dirty work so it was like he had retained his minions from his last position of power.
"Damn this is heavy," Baer groaned as he lifted the cube of Kai metal. Kai metal was the hardest and heaviest mineral in the known universe. Not even the Z sword could mar its surface. The strength of its bonds kept all the prisoners in HELL from escaping and confined Kid Buu so he couldn't wreak havoc.
"Be done with it already, we still have one more tenant to inject into the abyss today, " Dabura grinned as he set his sight on an impish pest squirming to get out of its restraints. The smile was noticeable on his pink face but how could he refrain from showing his joy? It wasn't every day that you could get revenge on your worst enemy . . . especially one that had betrayed you.
Baer threw the block into the Dead Zone and clapped the dust off his paws. Kid Buu's prison passed threw a magical shield holding back the vortex and then disappeared into darkness. He looked over to his boss to see that Dabura would be making the next deposit, "Master Babidi, how nice to see you again. Do you have anything to say for yourself before leaving us?" Wizard Babidi bit down on his gag hard and managed to send out a few words of gibberish before the king of Demons silenced him with a backhand, "Shut up. I don't care about your trite remarks," His little body soared through the dark red-violet skies of the Underworld before screeching to a halt against a group of jagged rocks. Babidi was blinded by the pain but lived through it. He regained his senses to see Dabura walking towards him. The Demon King's white cape flowed around his sky blue jumpsuit with each gust of wind. The turbulent environment around the Dead Zone reminded Dabura much of home, but it caused Babidi to fear for his life. The wizard closed his eyes and a gut wrenching kick hit him square in the stomach. The force of the kick sent him into the dimensional rip and when the wicked sorcerer opened his eyes again he found himself surrounded by darkness.
Babidi might have gone quietly . . . but all the while Kid Buu had been fighting his prison. After getting beat by Fat Buu, Vegeta, and Goku, the only thing Kid Buu could think about was revenge. He knew the extent of his power had left him, but nothing was impossible to him. The universe had no boundaries in his eyes and he would not be denied it by being cooped up in the center of a piece of metal. Kid Buu dreamed about it, he had nightmares about it . . . it became his only reason to continue fighting the restraints that held him. He had grown smarter through his experiences on Earth, and in Otherworld. He knew there would be only one way to exterminate all life in the universe, and that secret would be found within the Supreme Kais.
At the moment, the Kai metal was serving as one hell of a roadblock to his plan. He had tried for days to crack open his prison. Kid Buu had tried turning himself into boiling liquid, turning into gas, and even blowing up his body but nothing worked. The amount of energy he had exerted was wearing him thin, but Buu would never give in. Hours passed inside the cube, but to him it felt like years. He felt himself losing it, and his thoughts passed in and out of him like water. Once before it had been like this. He had been trapped somewhere with no exit and he felt like he would spend an eternity there. When those emotions flooded his thoughts he lost all control. In the Hyperbolic Time Chamber the green one know as Piccolo had told him that they were stuck . . . and that there would be no candy for the rest of eternity.
"Noooooooooooooooooooo!!!!" Buu lashed out, reverberating his yell against the walls of the cube, "I won't let this contain me! Nooooooooo!!!!!" Pink bolts of thunder crashed against the interior of the block of Kai Metal. It mixed with blood and his screams to form a storm of hate and despair. It seemed like his exertion would be a waste but that only caused him to yell harder. The tentacle atop his pink body wriggled, causing plumes of steam to erupt from the holes in his back and arms. Unknown to Buu, the substance around him had begun to buckle. On the outside a tiny fissure appeared on the block. His tortured cry escaped and echoed throughout the entire Dead Zone. If there was anybody still alive in the black loneliness, Buu's entrance was widely announced. The fracture on the surface was all he needed. Kid Buu boiled his skin away until his body mass consisted only of pink gas. Molecule by molecule he inched out of his cell until once more he was outside and free.
He came into the same darkness that had been his companion inside the Kai metal mold. Drained of power and famished, he realized leaving the Dead Zone would be an insurmountable task. But somehow, Buu would find his way out of it.

More Power levels! Here are the ones for this chapter.
Dabura: 50,000,000
Babidi: 7,000
Kid Buu (weak form): 300,000,000
Baer: 10,000,000
Until the other characters have an active part in the chapter, I'll hold off on posting their power levels. I'll try to do more in Chapter 3 so we can get this party started.
Okay, I know that there are probably some questions, so please ask away if you have any! If not, stay around for Chapter 3: Training Day. Thanks for reading!
