Chapter Twenty-two - There's Buu.

The smoke floated there for a moment then began to ripple and shift. Then, a second later, a form began to take shape. Within moments the pink smoke had solidified into something. "BUUUUUU!" it cried throwing it's arms upward.

"Is... is that Majin Buu?" Vegeta stammered, "It... it looks like a fat child...."

"Yes." Shin replied. "Because he is. It would seem that Buu has reverted to his original state."

"Original state?" Piccolo asked.

"Yes. When Majin Buu was first formed this is how he appeared. He's still extremely powerful, but acts like a child because he is. Given enough time he'll begin his transformations until he reaches his final stage like he was thousands of years ago. This must have happened from being trapped for so long."

Buu floated down to ground level as Dabura and Bobbidi stepped out of their ship. "Buu!" Bobbidi called over to the pink powerhouse. "Buu, do you know who I am?"

"Buu don't know you, but you look like Bibidi."

"My name's Bobbidi, I'm Bibidi's son."

"Bobbidi feed Buu! Buu want candy!"

Bobbidi blinked. /Drat, he must have reverted. Father told me this might happen if I took to long. No matter, the Supreme Kai wasn't able to stand up to Buu before, he can't now either./ He smiled. "Sure Buu."

"Candy!"

Dabura looked down at Bobbidi. "Are you sure this is the great Majin Buu? He seems like a child, and he's ugly."

Buu blinked. "Buu not know what oogly is."

"Ugly Buu." Bobbidi said. "He called you ugly. It means your face could scare children, that it makes him sick to look at you. It's an insult."

"In....sult?"

"Like if someone called you fat."

"What!" Buu cried looking at Dabura. "Red man make fun of Buu! Red man the one who oogly! Buu not like Red man! Buu not like Red man any! Buu not give Red man any candy!"

"Hmph. I don't want any candy, and you're obviously defective."

"Buu not know defective but think it's another isolt."

Dabura laughed. "He can't even talk!"

"That's it! Buu had it with Red man!" the fat Majin screamed shaking. "Red man call Buu names, then he laugh at Buu! Now Buu kill Red man!" Suddenly steam exploded from the openings that covered Buu.

Krillin's eyes went wide. "His power's huge and getting bigger!"

The others all nodded while Brolly and Shiko stared on in wonder.

Dabura smirked as the steam from Buu faded away. "Allow me Bobbidi. I'll deal with this weakling then we can carry out the universe's destruction ourselves." Dabura flew in at Buu but was met with a gloved fist to the face that knocked him backward. He recovered quickly and stared at the pink blob.

"Stronger than I'd thought, and fast to for something that fat."

"Buu mad! Red man called Buu fat!" Buu screamed firing a ki blast at Dabura which completely engulfed the Demon King. When the energy was gone Dabura was on one knee panting. That's when Buu's antenna flipped around and pointed at Dabura. "Know Buu will have Candy! Turn Red man into Chocolate Covered Cherry!" with that pink light erupted from Buu's antenna and surrounded Dabura and turned him into a candy which Buu then ate.

Bobbidi was smiling. "Good job Buu!" he called. "Now do that to them!" he said pointing.

Buu smiled. "More candy!"

As Buu charged in everyone scattered quickly to avoid him but he was too fast for them all to escape. Within a few minutes of chaos their ranks were cut down severely. Shiko and Brolly were gone. So were Krillin, 18, Piccolo, and Kibeto.

Vegeta looked around and then saw the pink blob moving towards him. "Oh that's it, I'm not running from a giant pink marshmallow!" he cried going Super Sai-jin and then to level two. Goku, Trunks, and Gohan all nodded in agreement with Vegeta and followed suit.

"Stay back!" Vegeta called to them.

"Not a chance." Trunks said walking up to his father. "You're strong, but even you can't do this alone. At least let me fight with you too."

Vegeta stood there growling, then finally. "Fine, but Kakkarotto and his brat stay back!"

Goku stood there for a moment, then sighed and relaxed powering down. "Let them go." he said to Gohan. "I think the two of them can handle Buu."

"What!" Shin cried. "We have to escape now, there's no way we can..."

"Quiet!" Vegeta snapped then smirked as he charged in toward Buu.
