Never Get A Saiyan Mad: Chapter Three-Say Goodbye To the King of the Demons

Got to...move...Have to save Videl...Gohan thought, watching as Videl stood, frozen in fear, in front of Dabura's blast.

Unable to muster the strength to move, Gohan shouted, "Videl! MOVE!" He watched in despair as Videl tried to jump out of the way but then was engulfed by the powerful energy blast.

"NO!" Gohan shouted. He finally struggled to his feet, growling at a smirking Dabura.

"You bastard...how dare you..." Gohan whispered menacingly, staring down at Videl's bloody, motionless form. He turned to face Dabura, a glare hardening his normally carefree face.

"When are people going to learn..." Gohan began, his voice growing louder with every word. "...Not to piss me off?!?" He let out a scream, his energy shooting up. He ran at Dabura, tackling him with all his might, sending them both crashing to the ground ten feet away. Gohan jumped to his feet, Dabura doing the same.

"You son of a bitch...how could you do that to her? You're gonna pay..." Gohan barked, clenching his fists. He let out another scream, a crater forming below him as his hair flashed to yellow. He got to his previous maximum and kept going, he even went beyond the level he was at when fighting Cell. Dabura powered up to his max, but his power was dwarfed by Gohan's enormous one.

Without warning, Gohan shot forward, driving his fist into Dabura's stomach. Spit and blood flew out of the demons mouth. Gohan grabbed the back of Dabura's head, slamming his face down onto his knee. Gohan uppercutted him and smirked, hearing the sickening crunch of Dabura's jaw breaking.

"Say goodbye, Dabura," Gohan whispered. Dabura's eyes widened, fear obvious in them. Gohan knocked Dabura into the air with a kick and then destroyed him in a flash of golden energy.

He powered down with a sigh of exhaustion and then darted over to Videl.

"Videl..." he whispered, sitting down next to her. He barely noticed the room return to its original state as he pulled her gently into his lap. "Videl, are you okay?"

He held a hand in front of her face, smiling faintly when he felt her weak breaths coming from her slightly open mouth.

"Gohan...is she...?"

Gohan turned around, startled, seeing a battered Goku and Vegeta being supported by Shin, the latter being the one that spoke.

"She's alive...She's fading fast, though," Gohan said, concern and anxiety plain in his voice.

"Supreme Kai, get the last Senzu out of my pouch...Videl needs it the most..." Goku said in a hoarse voice. Shin pulled the pouch off of the Saiyan's belt, managing to toss it to Gohan without putting either Saiyan down.

"Dad...I can't take it..." Gohan argued.

"We'll be fine and you know it, brat," Vegeta spoke up. "Give it to her."

Gohan nodded, feeling more grateful than he ever had in his life, not even knowing words adequate enough to express his thanks. He picked up the bag, dumping the last, precious Senzu into the palm of his hand.

"Videl, wake up," he said, tucking a stray hair behind her ear. Videl winced in pain and Gohan quickly pulled his hand away.

"Videl, c'mon, wake up!" Gohan demanded, wanting to shake her but fearing it would hurt her badly.

He growled in annoyance when she didn't regain consciousness. He popped the bean into her mouth, massaging her throat to try to make her swallow it, but it didn't work.

"I...I can't get her to take it. I'm gonna lose her..." Gohan said aloud.

"I...I don't know what to do, Gohan..." Shin admitted. Gohan turned to him with a look of despair mingled with rage.

"You're the God damn Supreme Kai. How can you not do anything?" he shouted angrily.

"Gohan, I cannot do everything..." Shin said sadly.

"This is a person's life we're talking about! There's gotta be some otherworldly or supernatural strings you can pull," Gohan argued.

"Gohan, I'm sorry. There's nothing I can do," Shin repeated.

"But-"

"Gohan, there's nothing we can do, alright? You just have to hope she wakes up enough to take the bean," Goku said sternly.

"I...you're right...I'm sorry Supreme Kai...I just don't want to lose her," Gohan said, staring down at the ground.

"I don't want you to lose her either, but we must move on. We still have to get to Babidi," Shin reminded him. But Gohan was no longer listening, so the others went on without him. Other than Dabura or Buu, none of Babidi's men were as strong as Shin, so they didn't need Gohan's new found strength at the moment.

"Videl, please, wake up. You have to get better," Gohan begged her still form. He leaned down, brushing his lips against her forehead. "If I lost you, I don't know what I'd do," he whispered, hugging her against his chest.

He sat there with her in his arms, rocking her gently, for a good ten minutes, listening to the battle on the floor below and feeling Videl's ki fade to nearly nothing. Finally, Videl awoke, crying out in pain upon taking notice of her various injuries.

"Videl, here," Gohan said, hurriedly giving her the Senzu. Videl chewed it up and swallowed, her injuries instantly healing.

"What happened? Where's Dabura? And the others?" she asked as soon as she was better.

"I beat Dabura. Everybody else is down on the next level," Gohan explained.

Videl looked over at the hole in the floor, hearing grunts and groans and seeing flashes of light.

"How'd you beat him?" she asked, still oblivious to the fact that her head was resting on Gohan's lap.

"When you got hurt...I freaked, and I got really mad...I get a lot stronger when I get mad, especially when someone I really care about dies or gets hurt," Gohan stated. Videl sat up, grasping onto Gohan's hand.

"Thank you," she said simply, kissing his cheek. Gohan grinned, a light blush tinting his cheeks.

"Come on. We should go help out," Gohan said reluctantly, standing up and tugging Videl to her feet.

"Wait," Videl said, stopping him right before he jumped down to stage four.

"What is it, Videl?" Gohan asked.

"You said you wouldn't get hurt, you bastard. You lied," Videl scolded, hitting him in the chest.

"I'm sorry, Videl. I just didn't expect Babidi to send out Dabura," Gohan explained.

"I swear, if you get yourself killed, I'm gonna murder you," Videl stated, not realizing the ridiculousness of what she had said. She narrowed her eyes at the demi-Saiyan when he started laughing.

"You do that, Videl," he said, jumping down the hole in the floor. Vide was about to follow when Gohan popped back out of it, a battered Shin and Saiyans in tow.

"Give me a second," he said with a grin. He ducked back into the hole. A few seconds and several flashes of white energy later, he came back up, telling the rest of them to follow.

Videl floated down the tube, seeing a few dozen soldiers knocked unconscious, lying on the cold metal floor.

"The next level should be where Babidi is," Shin warned in a quiet voice as the looked down the final shaft which was much longer and darker than the rest.

"I'll take care of him, Supreme Kai," Gohan said confidently, leading the way down. When they landed, they were indeed at the final level. This room was very different than the previous four. It was much smaller and darker. I contained only an odd, veiny-looking pinkish brown ball and Babidi.

"So, you have managed to get to me," Babidi said, unable to completely hide the fear in his voice.

"That's right, Babidi. And now we're going to take you down before you can release that monster on the world," Shin said confidently.

"Is that so, Kai? I have already collected nearly enough energy to release Buu at 99 of his strength...more than enough to destroy these pathetic weaklings and destroy the planet," Babidi said with a smirk.

"What? B-but...ho-how??" Shin stuttered out.

"I'm not telling," Babidi said, sticking out his tongue.

"You sound pretty confident for someone whose little flunkies have all been killed," Gohan put in.

"Wouldn't you be, if you were about to release the creature that will destroy this pathetic mud ball of planet?" Babidi retorted.

"That's not gonna happen while I'm around," Gohan said with a smirk, powering up a bit.

:Gohan, you must be careful not to disturb Buu. If he is hatched, no one, not even you, will be able to stand in his way,: Shin told Gohan telepathically. Gohan looked back at him and nodded. As he turned back to the evil wizard, Videl caught his eye, giving him a look that said 'Be careful.'

Gohan flashed her a grin before turning back around. He suddenly phased out, materializing right in front of Babidi. Babidi hurriedly shouted, "Barrier!" and a hard, clear bubble surrounded him.

Gohan smirked, easily punching through the shield. Babidi shrieked comically, backing away from the demi-Saiyan. He threw his hands forward in Gohan's direction. With a shout of "Pararapapa," Gohan was covered in a thick, silvery substance that Gohan noted was very similar to mercury.

Babidi laughed as the goo tightened its hold and sent bolts of electricity through Gohan's body. His laughter died down, though, when Gohan went super with a yell, sending waves of energy in all directions and causing the ground to shake slightly. The substance immediately disintegrated.

Gohan held up a hand, charging up an energy blast. In seconds, Babidi was nothing more than a pile of ash blowing in a wind that conveniently picked up.

"So, what do we do with Buu?" Gohan asked, turning to the Supreme Kai.

"I would rather not leave him on the planet again. But then again, trying to destroy him could release him. And as far as I know, there is no one else that knows how to release him," Shin said.

"But that's the mistake you made last time. You didn't know about Babidi. Who knows who else could be out there that knows about him?" Videl pointed out.

"You're right, Videl," Shin said. Sighing, he quietly admitted, "I don't know what to do."

"I don't think you have to decide, Supreme Kai," Gohan announced. The others looked over, first seeing Gohan staring at something in horror, and then seeing the source of his fear.

The ball containing Majin Buu was emitting pink smoke that collected on the ceiling. Suddenly, it cracked open down the middle...

End of Chapter Three.

I managed to royally piss of Gohan without killing Videl! Aren't you happy? The next chapter should come out soon.
