Life After Armageddon
Episode 9: Wide-Open Power Devastates the Heavenly Plane! Sayonara Babidi!
Gohan and Dabura were emitting incredible amounts of energy, if anything was clear it was that nobody on the planet, not even Trunks was in the league of these two in terms of power. Gohan stood waiting for his foe to make the first move but it wasn't happening, "I guess I'll lead," Gohan declared before lunging at Dabura ready to strike, but just as Gohan was about to deliver the opening blow of the battle Dabura used his speed to slip behind the Saiya-Jin where he connected with a full force kick to the back of the neck, or at least he thought he did, as Gohan had anticipated this maneuver and used the zanzouken technique to get behind Dabura where he connected with a roundhouse kick that knocked the demon king out of the air and into the middle of the Heavenly Plane! Dabura calmly got back to his feet, he was surprised to have been knocked down but he wasn't about to lose his cool, "not bad, but lets see you if you keep up with me now!" Dabura exclaimed as he gathered a small amount of his ki and then fired it towards the ground to launch himself at Gohan with incredible speed! Gohan wasn't ready as Dabura appeared just above him and fired a medium strength kikoha blast that at point blank range was enough to send Gohan rocketing back to the hard tiled floor of the Heavenly Plane! "I'm done with you!" shouted Dabura who with amazing speed gathered a massive amount of ki, which he fired towards Gohan in the form of an extremely wide red wave! "Crud!" Gohan thought as he saw the huge mass of energy coming towards him, he had to react quickly and he did! Gohan slowed the blast of his rival by firing a small kikoha blast of his own into the oncoming wave, Gohan continued to pour his ki into it until he sent the blast flying back towards Dabura! Dabura easily avoided the returned blast but was caught off guard when Gohan appeared behind him via instantaneous movement! Dabura turned around to put up a defensive, but it was too late! Gohan had already released a low power Kamehameha! While it didn't posses nearly the power the attack normally does it was more than enough to send the body of Dabura flying the length of the Heavenly Plane! Dabura regained control and remained floating in the air, "you're shaping up to be quite the challenge," the demon king said to his opponent.
Bridgetown had come a long way since the days when the Artificial Humans reigned supreme over the planet; it was a site of one of the battles between Trunks and the evil duo. After many years Bridgetown had, through great effort finally been restored to its former glory, but now that glory was about to disappear again as four of the lesser demons that Dabura had dispatched from the Heavenly Plane had arrived in the city! These demons possessed no incredible amount of power, but at power levels between 4000 and 16000 they had far more than what would be necessary to wipeout any city on the earth! The demons wasted no time in destroying buildings and killing any citizens they set their eyes on, in a matter of a minutes Bridgetown was reduced to a mass of rubble and dead bodies. Unfortunately this wasn't only happening in Bridgetown, this scene was playing out in cities all over the earth and with no Dragonballs existent in this world, these people were dead forever.
Meanwhile atop the Heavenly Plane, Dabura and Son Gohan stopped flying and descended onto the slightly damaged tile surface of the Heavenly Plane where the various Kamis' of earth once lived. They lunged at each other with incredible speed, Dabura tried to lead with a punch but Gohan caught his hand and squeezed with all his strength! While Dabura reeled back in pain Gohan connected with a punch that sent Dabura crashing into what was Kami's palace! Gohan quickly fired a kikoha blast at the downed body of Dabura, this caused Dabura to fly upwards as Gohan had anticipated and he used instantaneous movement to arrive at the face of his adversary, catching him by surprise! Gohan drove his elbow hard into Dabura's jaw stunning the demon king long enough for Gohan to grab him by the arm and throw him back to the tiled floor of the Heavenly Plane with such velocity that a giant crack split across the entire surface! Gohan hovered over his downed foe and unleashed a flurry of small energy blasts that all hit their target, finally Gohan felt he had softened up Dabura long enough and he gathered as much ki as he could into right fist before flying full throttle at the vulnerable form of his adversary, he intended to drill a hole through the chest of the kingpin of the Demon Realm of Darkness! Just before he would have connected however Dabura rolled away causing Gohan to falter just long enough for Dabura to gain the advantage! The demon king immediately went on the offensive knocking Gohan into the air with an uppercut, which he followed up with a roundhouse kick that sent Gohan rocketing back towards the palace! Gohan thought he'd catch Dabura by surprise again by using instantaneous movement just before impact, and so he did winding up right behind the demon king! But Dabura wasn't going to be tricked by that technique anymore! He thrust an elbow backwards into the stomach of Gohan with such force that the Saiya-Jin fell to his knees! "You were a fool to try that again," the demon king told Gohan before placing his hand on the face of his opponent and unleashing a kikoha blast that sent Gohan flying off the edge of the Heavenly Plane and plummeting towards the earth below! After a second the Saiya-Jin regained control and floated back onto the edge of the Heavenly Plane and looked Dabura in the eyes, "not bad, done with the warm-up?" he asked before cracking a smile.
Meanwhile at the Capsule Corporation, Trunks was still in his healing chamber sensing the ongoing battle, "that ki, until it got unbelievably huge resembled that of my mentor Gohan," he thought to himself. A robotic voice spoke indicating that Trunks had one-minute remaining in the chamber until the healing process was finished, "good, I'll be out of here soon, the way things are developing I might not have to train to help finish this crisis. Maybe I'm powerful enough that if I interfered in the ongoing battle it would tip the balance in favor of whoever it is fighting Dabura? But then there is also the issue of protecting the areas that are being attacked by the lesser powers that I feel," Trunks struggled with making the decision on what to do when he was informed he could leave the healing chamber. "Hmm, I have an idea," Trunks said as he pushed open the door of the standing rectangular chamber from the inside, "but first I better get some different clothes on," he said as he looked at his outfit he was presently wearing, it was drenched in his blood and sweat, he decided to go and equip the Saiya-Jin battle armor his mom in the other timeline had made for him.
"Well, Babidi it would seem the end to you're reign of terror has come," said Kaiobit as he closed in on the Madoshi, "don't kill me! I can help you," shrieked Babidi. "I really don't think you can," said Kaiobit as he moved in on the Madoshi. "Hear me out!" exclaimed a panicking Babidi, "I heard you say that the form you are in is less than favorable, well I think I know of a way using my magic that I could split you back into two, I'll do it if you let me go," he said. "That's it? That's your grand offer?' before Babidi had a chance to respond he found the large hand of Kaiobit covering his face, a second later Babidi, the son of Bibidi who had spent most of his life searching for Majin Boo was reduced to nothing more than a pile of ashes! "I would rather stick in this form, unpleasant as it may be rather than have let the Madoshi live," said Kaiobit before continuing; "he was quite foolish to think I would let the likes of him use his magic on me." "Now though, I have one more task to perform before this situation is over with," Kaiobit thought to himself.
Trunks, now wearing his Saiya-Jin battle armor started his way through the halls of the Capsule Corporation, he bumped into his mom just outside of her regular quarters. "Earlier I sensed a power arriving here, it felt like that big guy I told you about, was it him?" Trunks asked his mother. Bulma nodded then said, "A big guy arrived here, but no Mr. Popo," to which Trunks responded, "I didn't sense his arrival, this probably means he's dead," said Trunks angrily. The Saiya-Jin continued, "That big guy, what kind of shape is he in now?" "Remarkably good shape," said Bulma, adding, "He's practically ready to go but I've had the staff stalling him because I know you wanted to see him." "The fact he's part demon must mean he can heal faster also," Trunks thought to himself. "By the way has he mentioned his name yet?" Trunks asked his mother. "Oh yes, he did, his name is Spopovitch," Bulma replied. "Spopovitch eh?" said Trunks continuing, "I need to talk to him immediately, the lives of many people could very well rest in his hands."
Meanwhile, Kaiobit had exited the ship of the now deceased Madoshi Babidi and found himself back on the surface of the planet the ship had landed on, planet Poyo. "I must now carefully dispose of this ship, so that no other dark hearted fiend finds it," Kaiobit thought to himself. "If I vaporize the ship, it could possibly destroy all the magic inside of it too, but a chance some magic would escape into the atmosphere also exists and that would cause havoc wherever it ended up. It's just too risky I cannot do it. But what can be done?" Kaiobit struggled with the thought, "Perhaps I can levitate the ship with my ki and then thrust it off towards a corner of the universe where no life exists, for now that's probably my best bet," Kaiobit decided to set about doing this. He focused his ki onto the ship and lifted it off the ground of the planet Poyo and into the air, with intense concentration he turned it in the direction he wished it to travel and sent it rocketing away into the depths of space, hopefully to never be seen again. "At last, it's over," he said to himself before using Kai-Kai to teleport back to Kaioshin-Kai.
Trunks entered the room where Spopovitch was and introduced himself before continuing, "Spopovitch, I need to know, back on the Heavenly Plane what chain of events took place that caused you to wind up here?" This caused Spopovitch to grimace, "it was horrible, Dabura came through the portal along with a lot of other demons and I tried to fight him. But he shrugged off my attacks as if they were nothing, the next thing I know I've been defeated and find myself floating towards this building somehow." This raised Trunks ire, "how utterly foolish of you to attack him, didn't you sense the difference between his power and you're own?" barked Trunks. "I have no clue what you're talking about," said Spopovitch, this caused Trunks to come to a realization. Trunks thought hard and he never once remembered Spopovitch performing a Kikoha or showing any form of ki control at all, except that he flew onto the Heavenly Plane. "Were you in control of you're body when you were flying earlier?" Trunks asked, somewhat curiously, "No, it was like I was being drawn to the demons somehow, I could smell the demons and my body pulled me to them." "I know why, it must have been because the demon who's blood you swallowed was near where I was and you're body pulled you to him. I recall them saying something about a half-demon having his blood call for vengeance." Trunks replied before continuing, "I have plans for you, to stop the other demons while I try to handle Dabura along with whoever is fighting him right now, but for you to do that I'm going to have to give you a crash course in how to control ki."
Son Gohan took a deep breath and then began raising his ki to its maximum level, Dabura did the same. Both warriors had their power rising to tremendous levels, however eventually Gohan's ki stopped growing while that of Dabura kept skyrocketing! Together their powers tore the tiles from the Heavenly Plane, the stone statue that was Mr. Popo was knocked over and shattered into pieces! The Heavenly Plane had been badly damaged by the tremendous wide-open power these two were generating. Finally done powering up, Dabura felt Gohan's power that was far lesser than his own, and said, "Is that all you got?"
