I wish I owned DBZ, but I don't. I own DVD's and tapes, but it just isn't the same. I also don't own the right to any of the music pieces you may see selected, just copies of merchandise, such a shame. The artists that created them are geniuses and we all must bow to them.
Chapter 22: Unleashing Hell
Buu's shock of Vegito's power wore off, "Ha, I dare say you were trying to toy with me. If you could deflect that, you could've afflicted a hell of a lot more damage to me earlier. Don't get the wrong idea, you still don't compare to me, nobody does! Let's do a comparison just for the hell of it though, you have two Saiyans and I have four plus a Namek! Not to mention my powers on top of that!" Buu said, grinning.
"It's quality, not quantity. Our level wasn't achieved by kidnapping. If you think you can win this fight with petty theft, come prove it!" Vegito said, waving him over.
Buu growled, "You talk too much, I'll make sure you never speak to me again, you're finished!" Buu launched at Vegito, who awaited him with a smirk. Just by the way Buu had moved earlier, compared to what I had seen of Vegito, I knew Vegito could easily block his blows. But he appeared to let Buu hit him, and Buu obliged. Buu knocked him straight up in the air and then back down, into a large bay of water nearby. Buu held out his palms and fired multiple blasts at the water, covering just about all of the area Vegito had fallen though. Buu stopped, scanning for any signs that he had beaten his opponent, an assumption that was quickly put to rest when Vegito appeared behind him with a huge gush of water.
"Not too bad, but your aim was horrible, I was clear over on the other side of you. I guess I need to show you how it's done again!" Vegito said, raising his palm and charging. Buu looked horrified at this, and raised his hands to block.
"If you're still hungry, I got your meal right here. Eat this!" Vegito shouted at him, letting another Big Bang blast go and watching it sail up to Buu. In a flash Buu vanished, leaving behind a couple million pink chunks floating in the air, rocks falling down in random places. Vegito waited again, making me wonder what he was trying to prove if he could do that so easily. The Buu chunks flew together, reforming different parts of his body. Vegito noticed that the remains of the creature's forelock was nearby him, and grabbed it out of the air, examining it. Buu cleared his throat, signaling that he was back. Vegito held up the forelock in a teasing manner.
"You want this back I suppose?"
"If you don't mind," Buu said calmly. Vegito tossed the pink appendage towards him, and using his other hand blew it up with a small ki blast. Buu was more than a little surprised, but then he shifted to just plain pissed off.
"Oh don't be angry, I was just trying to help. You look pretty bad with that big banana on your head, this looks much better!" Buu growled and regrew his forelock, shouting random curses at the air.
I couldn't help but laugh, "Well at least he still has Vegeta's sense of humor, hahaha!"
"Toying with Buu like that will not win this fight young one, no matter how amusing this is to you," Old Kai scolded.
"Sorry," I said out of habit. What a grumpy old man.
"I heard that!"
Another sonic boom went off, the result of Vegito tossing around Buu by the leg, and then kicking him into the air from where he had tossed him. Vegito met Buu in mid air again and punched him back to earth before kicking him sideways again, then back into the air. He continued this combination of punches and kicks, knocking Buu around in the air and using his awesome speed. Finally Buu had enough of this and swung himself around in the air to counter Vegito's next attack. Vegito, who just kept his smirk going strong, caught his punch handily. Buu attacked with a furious flurry of punches that Vegito just dodged. Vegito dodged so fast that it looked like a statue was getting the best of Buu. I never even saw a blur of where he was, he was just instantly there. Somewhat like a teleporting effect, and Buu was still hitting nothing but air. Vegito kneed Buu in the chin, causing a little bit of purple blood to spew out, which in turn made Vegito to erupt with laughter.
"Ha, I'm starting to get very angry with you, and for me that is a very bad thing. So watch yourself, that's your only warning!" Buu said, a little calmer now. The response he got wasn't to his liking. Getting your head blown off tends to do that to a person.
"Too bad it isn't permanent, your head is the worst part about you!" Vegito mocked the headless fighter, who slowly regrew it, and started spewing steam from his top. The steam flowed like smoke and lava from a volcano, and soon filled the air around both fighters.
"HAHAHA, now you're done, you can't hit what you can't see!"
"That Buu is a damn fool if he thinks that!" I said.
Old Kai caught my thought process and looked at me strange, "What do you mean sonny?"
"Watch."
"Well, you're half right, I can't see you," Vegito said, phasing out of view. After that nothing but steam was shown, but the muffled sounds of powerful hits and screams were heard. Buu went flying out of the steam cloud, dazed and confused, as well as tattered and torn.
"You villains never do take true pride in your fighting skills. You're not worth the effort, give up and I promise I'll make your death quick!"
"Ah damnit, just finish him off already! What is wrong with those two?!" Old Kai shouted.
"The fusion with Vegeta must've skewed Goku's judgment, he's just too damn arrogant!" Kibito Kai whined.
"I have a question, now granted Vegeta does tend to toy with those who are weaker than him, I should know. Is there a chance that this is a side effect of this earring fusion, you know like Gotenks? And to be honest, wouldn't you be toying with Buu if you were in his place, after all he did cause you a lot of pain before. Wouldn't you want to see him suffer? I sure as hell would! As much of a downfall that it may cause you can't really blame him. Killing or absorbing his families like he did, you damn right he would suffer for it!" I said, making my point clear.
"Young one, we are divine beings, such vengeful thoughts are beyond us!" Old Kai said, Kibito Kai looked indifferent about it.
"That is the biggest load of bullshit I have ever heard! What if Buu had killed someone you loved? Not only killed but made he or she suffer as well, tell me with a straight face that you wouldn't want him to suffer first?" I said sternly to Old Kai. Old Kai looked away before answering,
"You know, you sure don't think your age, young one," Old Kai said as he smiled slightly.
"I try not to," I said, returning the smile. Suddenly all of the ki and life around us shifted, a lot, the ground shook slightly. We looked back at the globe, only to see the sky had grown black with green light. At the center of the problem, Buu's eyes glowed red, and he was screaming, trying to do something.
"Oh no, he's ripping a hole in the dimensional walls, he could destroy the universe!" Kibito Kai gasped.
Old Kai looked closer, "Yes he could, but he isn't tearing that big of a hole. It looks like he is trying to rip a hole open to just one place, but what place could that be?" We watched as a portal of some kind appeared in the air, and I could see an image inside of it. The image was very familiar in fact, the skies were purple with yellow clouds above it, the ground was purple as well. What should have been a blue lake of water, it was red.
"What's he doing trying to do, unleash all hell upon Earth?" Old Kai asked, not seeing the portal image as I had.
"I think that's exactly what he's trying to do, I recognize the place in that portal, it is hell!" I pointed out.
-
Once the portal stabilized, Buu stopped exerting his power, and the magic gate to hell was wide open.
"What did you do?!" Vegito shouted.
"What's that old saying, if you can't get the job done by yourself, get others that can? Isn't it obvious yet to you Vegito? I plan to unleash hell upon this planet to destroy you. Then I will go to the other world and destroy it as well, but only after I have finished with you! Come minions of hell, heed my call to destroy the Super Saiyan!" Nothing much happened right away, but slowly a few faces appeared in the portal and sprang out. Not any I knew, that was for sure, a few random beasts that barely looked human flew out as well. Then there was a long pause, and more ki appeared, dark ki. Out from the portal flew a certain alien dawned in white and spotted purple on his head, shoulders, body and limbs. I went numb on the inside, had I been on the planet I would have snarled.
"Frieza!" I shouted upon the sight. I noticed something odd, his power level was way higher than it was when I fought him.
"That's not all either young one!" Old Kai said and pointed. Out from the portal stepped King Kold as well, Cell after him and the Ginyu force in tow. After that were many armored lackeys that only could have belonged to Frieza, the armor gave that away. That and none of them looked anything like a Saiyan. They poured out of the hole until the skies were virtually full of armored fighters. Counting as many as I could, there must have been at least one hundred thousand of Frieza's army, all of them sporting halos marking them as dead.
Old Kai corrected me quickly, "I count three hundred thousand of them, mostly weaklings!"
I groaned a bit, "That's still a bunch!"
"Welcome warriors of hell, I am your liberator, Majin Buu. That golden figure there is your enemy, terminate him!" Buu declared with a commanding look. None of the villains moved, most of them being under Frieza and King Kold told that tale. Instead Cell and Frieza gave Buu a good stare off.
"You're Majin Buu? As grateful as myself and my friend here are to you for releasing us, we don't take orders from anybody, most of all your little worm Babidi here!" Frieza announced, pulling from behind him the little brown wizard by the scruff of the neck.
"Let go of me you white freak!" Babidi squirmed in Frieza's grasp.
"You will follow my orders, or I will take the leisure of destroying you, permanently!" Buu warned. Vegito stood on the sidelines, arms crossed with a smirk of amusement at the ensuing stand off between Buu and Frieza's army.
"I'll cut you a deal, you allow me the time to build the power to destroy this universe completely, and you can have the Saiyan there. If you didn't already know, that is the fusion of Son Goku and Prince Vegeta. I'm sure many of you would like to kill one or the other, here's your chance for both!" Buu laughed and flew off to a distant location. More minions sprung from the hellhole, many of them with Frieza's army, many not, but all were giving Vegito the glare of death.
"Oh boy, while I have no doubt that Vegito could defeat them all easily, he's sure to have some trouble. Frieza and Cell's powers have increased due to Buu's evil influence, plus he has to stop Buu before he powers up completely and destroys the universe!" Kibito Kai said.
"Then we should go to Earth and help out!" I said, standing.
"No young one, you can't because you're dead. Not withstanding the fact that many of those enemies are as well. Somehow Buu gave them new life when they emerged from the portal, so they wouldn't simply fade away and die. You would need King Yemma's approval, and a temporary pass to go there. Young Kai, go to other world and recruit some assistance from the Grand Kai and his warriors. Verto will remain here! We can't risk you getting permanently destroyed, your importance is to great!" Old Kai ordered.
"My importance?" I managed to say.
"Something that will be revealed in time later. The discussion is closed, now stay here and observe the battle!" Old Kai said again, pointing to the ground. Sulking a little, I complied and sat down. Kibito Kai vanished in a flash, and I felt his ki very far away, barely. The flow of minions stopped flowing finally, bring the total number of Hell's residents up to near five hundred thousand according to Old Kai's count. Vegito opted to go after Buu instead, who was powering up still, summoning the deepest reaches of his power.
"It seems that Buu has stumbled upon Gohan's deepest powers as well, the power I sensed within Gohan was too deep to get out in time. Buu is calling upon that as well, and it is increasing his energy greatly, he's more of a match for Vegito now," Old Kai stated. It was true to, the combination of Buu's deepest power and Gohan's was beginning to unfold, his power crept closer to Vegito's level. Vegito arrived at Buu, ready to fight. Then Buu did something unexpected, he split into two beings, like Tien's multi form technique. This caught us a bit off, until I realized that Piccolo knew how to do that as well, he was still using Piccolo's brain along with Gohan and Trunks' power. One Majin Buu met Vegito in the air, blocking his path. The other kept powering up, the ki signature did not change though. It was if Buu did this so he could hold Vegito off while he powered up. Vegito attacked one of the Buu's right away, and found that Buu's new added power was matching him. As the two struggled with each other, our attention was drawn back to the rip in space and time. Frieza and Cell's army was surrounding Dende, Mr. Satan, and Tien, who had just flown in. Frieza ordered his troops to stand by, he opted to take Tien on himself. Some of the army made there way over to Buu and Vegito, and started to attack while Vegito was trying to take on Buu. The distractions were enough to aid Buu in getting further along in his power raising.
A few new ki levels emerged from the portal, dressed in fighting robes, at first I did not recognize them. A familiar green man in a heavy robe appeared, along side a pink devil in blue and white. Unbelievably, Dabura and Pikkon flew in side-by-side, heading straight for Cell and King Kold. Back on the ground, Frieza was attacking Tien, and winning amazingly. Tien was unable to match his moves. Pikkon flew in and kicked Frieza off of him while Dabura head butted Cell from behind. A few minions were hassling Mr. Satan and Dende, who spent most of the time running away, Tien was able to jump up and head them off.
"This is nuts," I said.
"Damnit, where is that young devoted Kai when you need him?" Old Kai said. I lost track of Kibito Kai's ki signal, being so engrossed in the brawl on earth. A large explosion formed around the main core of troops, Pikkon had just blasted Frieza into nothing. Shortly afterwards, Dabura turned Cell into stone and blasted the remains. I felt Buu's energy signature start to fluctuate, but the picture remained on the battle with Frieza's army. Old Kai must have heard my thoughts again, because he created another ball that zoomed in on the battle with Buu and Vegito. There, Buu was still channeling his power, his other half still fighting with Vegito. But his other half was straining to win and was drawing off the other's ki just to sustain his position. Therefore whatever power Buu was bringing up was being used right away, nullifying the effect. With Buu and the other demons struggling against Vegito, it looked like Buu would be unable to keep it up. His ki slowly dropped, even though his was summoning it. Had he not been a magic demon, he would have overexerted himself by now.
"Look, Buu's having trouble sustaining his power!" I pointed out.
"Yes, that is definitely good for us!" Old Kai said with a smile. Just as I celebrated, I noticed a small brown figure approach, his ki non-existent.
"What the hell? It's Babidi!"
-
"Majin Buu, though I hate you for killing me, I am here to assist you in destroying the physical universe. With my help you can overpower the Saiyans and finally do it!" Babidi proposed. Buu seemed to nod his head slightly, and Babidi turned on the magic, calling on his powers. I felt Buu's ki start to rise with the aid of Babidi's magic to recharge him. Just like that the tide turned on Vegito and Buu starting beating on him again, the other warriors stirring after Vegito had knocked them out. Back over to the other side of the battle, Pikkon and Dabura were trying to fend off all of the army. One on one with any of them was no contest, but with as many as there were, their chances for victory slipped. Dabura finally cleared several hundred away and got a good blast off, taking several thousand warriors out. He caught his breath while he could, and powered up some more. Then he looked over at the portal, and his face fell slightly. Old Kai's switched the view, and standing at the entrance to Hell was Frieza and Cell, along with the warriors Dabura had just destroyed.
"What the hell, how did Frieza get back through the judging process so fast?" I asked.
"Because once they were killed again, Buu's portal sent them straight back to hell, allowing them to come back right away. I'm sending a message to young Kai to get the young Namek out of there while he can, that way we can still use the dragonballs."
I looked at him like I had just seen a ghost, "You're agreeing to using the balls now?"
"Yeah, why not, I want my life back anyway!" Old Kai giggled slightly, "Of course we still have to win the battle, but damage like this calls for it." There was a flash of light behind me, and Kibito Kai arrived, holding a battered Tien, Dende and Mr. Satan.
"Where the hell did you go all this time young Kai, you left here half an hour ago!"
"My apologies sir, I went to get some help. They should be arriving soon to even the odds for Goku and Vegeta," Kibito Kai explained.
"Well I need you to go to Hell and attempt to repair the rip in the dimension wall. Call in the Grand Kai if you need to. If we can get that hole fixed, then the people brought back from hell will return to it for good once they are killed again," Old Kai ordered. Kibito Kai bowed and vanished, leaving Dende and Mr. Satan wondering where they were.
"Hey Dende, over here!" I waved at him.
"Verto!"
"Hey, aren't you that tiny kid from the tournament? The one that helped my daughter with that skinny kid?" Satan asked.
"That's me," I smirked at him. Satan, Tien and Dende made there way over to the viewing orbs, grabbing a seat.
"Man, I've never seen a fight like this!" Tien said.
"That's because there's never been one like this, not with the entire universe on the line. I have a feeling it's about to escalate even more," Old Kai said, pointing at the massive battle with Pikkon and Dabura. The minions were ordered back again, as the two other world warriors were worn down enough that Frieza and Cell could fight them solo. Cell was beating down Dabura, and Frieza was tail lashing Pikkon, who was barely moving. And suddenly everything stopped, Majin Buu and Vegito stopped, Cell and Frieza stopped, everyone had their eyes on the portal for some reason. Only two fighters stood there. They were two unique fighters and both looked humanoid, with one exception, they had tails! One looked amazingly like Goku and Goten, same hairstyle, except he had a nasty old scar on his face and bore old style Saiyan armor. The other looked exactly like Vegeta, except he was much larger and sported a thick goatee on his face, and a medallion around his neck.
"Who are they?" Tien asked.
"I think that is, yes I believe they are the fathers of Goku and Vegeta, Bardock and King Vegeta!" Old Kai said, with a wide grin.
"FRIEZA!" both of them roared. Frieza and King Kold looked up and their jaws dropped in shock at the two old Saiyans.
"No way, I killed both of you!" That was true, they both had halos above their heads.
"Yes you did, you killed us along with the rest of our people, but now we are back to get rid of you once and for all!" King Vegeta announced.
Frieza started laughing, along with most of his army, "How do you monkeys expect to do that? These are the strongest warriors in the other world and even they fell! What do you two monkeys hope to do? You're not even Super Saiyans!"
"I never said that we came alone, Frieza!" King Vegeta said, before bellowing a battle cry of ages. He and Bardock floated towards Frieza and Cell, but then stopped with wide grins displayed on their faces. Behind them, back at the portal, another Saiyan emerged, this one had long hair and looked like Bardock.
"Remember me, brother?" he shouted towards Vegito, grinning slightly.
"Raditz!" Vegito whispered. Raditz moved out of the way, and joined his father's side.
"So, three monkeys now, what have you proved?"
"Nothing yet," Bardock said, firing a ki blast towards the portal. It went through without interference. However once it did, a faucet turned on. Instead of water coming from the portal, Saiyans did, a lot of them.
