Chapter twenty-six - A new Warrior for A new Buu

"Oblivion!" cried Mainframe throwing a basketball sized black and red energy bomb at Buu. The attack was caught by Buu but exploded in his face, and took out his head.

"Unbelievable!" Gohan cried from the lookout.

"It's not over though." Shin said. "In this weaker state Majin Buu can regenerate. In later forms the ability fades out. It's a self defensive thing. Regenerating, absorbing power from other people, even absorbing other people. He loses these later but gains more power to compensate."

Back on the battle field Buu's head was back in place and he was using Matrix as a punching bag until Mainframe caught him with a right hook to his face. The two charged in quickly and started pounding on him. He crashed into the ground and with each punch they knocked him deeper into the ground, until he knocked them skyward and jumped after them head butting Mainframe and hitting Matrix with a double fisted chop to the back of the neck.

The androids slammed into the ground showering rocks everywhere. Mainframe stood and launched toward Buu while Matrix began to glow and heal. Buu, however, dodged around the first Android and charged down to the other slamming his fist into her stomach. She cried out in pain, spitting up blood. As Buu laughed like a little child Matrix collapsed to the ground clutching her stomach. Her aura vanished and her hair returned to normal.

"That's it!" Mainframe cried. He flew down and slammed his right foot into Buu's face, then spun and slammed his other foot into the side of Buu's head sending him sailing away. The Android then landed and spread his arms apart and formed golden balls of energy around each.

"Isn't that…" Gohan began. Goku just nodded.

"Take this you pink freak! I don't care who or what you are but you're dead! FINAL FLASH!" The attack surged forward as Buu got to his feet. He stared on wide eyed as it neared, and slammed into him head on. Still the Android poured on the energy not letting up, giving the attack everything he could.

It didn't stop until his energy dried up and he dropped to one knee beside Matrix, reverting to normal. "There, I got him that time." he panted staring along the groove he'd created. He tried to stand up but barely managed to get to his feet before dropping to his knees again.

Then an arc of light caught his eye. As he stared on another arc of pink light flashed up between something behind a bush and a small pink blob just in front of him. A rustling beside him made him glance that way just in time to see pink blob roll between some rocks. /What the hell is going on?/

Suddenly something warm wrapped around his feet and he jerked back. Another pink blob was crawling up his leg with other blobs rolling toward him. Again he tried to stand but still he couldn't. A glance back at Matrix revealed that she too was being covered by these things.

It only took a few minuets for booth Androids to be completely covered in the pink blobs. Then the two piles merged into one and began to glow. It flowed upward and a moment later there was a flash of pink and then blue light from the blob. When the light died it revealed a Majin Buu that looked much different than before.

"What's that!" Goku cried. Buu was no longer fat but built much like a normal person. Buu's hands were now a metallic gray, that gray reached half-way up his arm and then slowly shifted to pink. The back of his head was also that same gray color and his eyes now had blue irises.

"Majin Buu absorbed the Androids, this isn't good." Shin said staring down.

"Incredible!" Bobidi cried in joy. "Well done Majin Buu!"

"Yes, it was a good move wasn't it?" Buu said with a smirk, now sounding much more intelligent. "Oh, and just call me Buu now."

Bobidi stared at the new Buu for a moment before laughing in joy again. "You got smarter too! You must have gained their intelligence!"

Buu's smirk grew bigger. "Yep, and more than that." he clenched his fists and began to power up. His energy was still pink but now it was also laced with blue as well. The whole world shook as his power continued to skyrocket. After a few moments he relaxed and the shaking stopped.

"He's almost doubled his power!" Goku cried. "That's unbelievable!" He looked back toward Hiroshi. "You said before you know the Fusion Dance, right?"

Hiroshi blinked. "Yes, why?"

"I know it too. I think it may be needed right about now."

Hiroshi stared at Goku for a moment longer before nodding. "Yes, I think you're right."

The others on the lookout watched as Hiroshi and Goku walked back from the edge and took on strange stances.

"Fuuuuu. Shunnnnn. HAAAAAAA!"
