Chapter 3: Gohan Attacks

Buu had been searching for what seemed like a day, and Gotenks' fusion had long since worn off, but by using Piccolo's wisdom he thought of a way to not only refuse the boy's while they were inside his body, but to also make the fusion last for as long as he needed it to.

Buu had yet to find that sniveling, weakling Hercule, but he had nothing better to do than to hunt him down. It was then that Buu had noticed two small shapes walking along below him. Buu decided to power up and flew straight at the shapes, but before he could kill the coward that had curled up into a ball and nearly wet himself, someone or something picked them up and flew away faster than he could see.

Hercule opened his eyes and looked up to see that he had been saved by Gohan. "Thank you for saving me, I didn't mean it when I took all the credit for the Cell games." Hercule babbled.

"Don't worry about it, and we will talk later. Right now I have to go find Buu." Gohan replied.

As Gohan was flying off from hiding Hercule he heard a voice yell out, "Don't get yourself killed, or Videl will never forgive me." Gohan smirked as he heard what Hercule had said. {Apparently Hercule has figured out that I'm not letting Videl go} Gohan thought as he flew towards Buu.

Buu had tracked down the ki signature that took away his kill, and was racing after it. After a short distance the two had met. Buu looked at Gohan and had a questioning look on his face.

"No, your not dreaming. I'm back and I'm stronger than ever." Gohan told Buu.

"Oh really boy. As I recall you said that last time to, and don't you remember what happened then?" Buu asked.

"Yes I do, and don't think I am going to let that happen again." Gohan replied.

"You may be stronger than you were, but don't forget, I have both your mentor Piccolo, and your brother in Gotenks." Buu said.

"You may have Gotenks, but the fusion only lasts for thirty minutes before it diffuses." Gohan remembered.

"That was true, but I have found a way to make the fusion last for as long as I want it to." Buu challenged.

"Your bluffing" Gohan replied as he dropped into a defensive stance.

"Oh really" was Buu's only words before he refused the boys back into Gotenks.

Gohan also took the opportunity to transform into his newly acquired state and launched a head on attack at Buu. After hitting Buu with several of his attacks, Buu decided it was time to turn up the power. Buu powered up to his maximum level and start to attack Gohan. Gohan went on the defense and Buui couldn't even land a punch. {What's this, how did he get so strong?} Buu though.

Buu backed off and charged up an energy blast and released it at Gohan. Instead of deflecting the blast, Gohan charged up a blast of his own and sent it right back at Buu, blowing Buu to pieces. Buu had thought of a plan as he was reforming. He charged up several of his Ghost Kamikazes, and sent them at Gohan. Gohan turned and flew away and waited for the ghosts to follow him. As they were flying around Gohan quickly turned and headed straight for Buu. With the ghosts right behind him Gohan knew that he couldn't make a mistake with this attack. Before Gohan ran directly into Buu, he quickly phased out and reappeared behind Buu and punched him so he flew right into his own attack.

{How am I supposed to kill this guy} Buu thought as he once again had to reform. {There is only one more thing I can think of that might work} Buu had come up with another plan. When Buu had reformed, a part of him had still been missing Gohan noticed. {He must be up to something} Gohan thought. "What's wrong Buu, can pull yourself together?" Gohan taunted.

After hearing that Buu got angry and released the part of him that he was going to try and absorb Gohan with. Instead of Gohan trying to get away, he let Buu think that he was going to absorb him, and when it was about to close around him, Gohan powered up and sent the goo everywhere. Buu looked at Gohan and for the first time in his life he felt truly terrified that this could be his last moment alive.

"What's wrong Buu run out of tricks, not as much fun when you're the one that is scared no is it?" Gohan said.

"I'm not finished yet, I have a few more tricks up my sleeve" Buu replied.

Next Time: What tricks does Buu still have, and will he be able to defeat Gohan?
