Chapter 10
Goku appears on the lookout and looks around to get his bearings. Most of the other Z warriors are already there as well as many of their family.
"Goku, you're alive," ChiChi squeals. "Thank god."
"We all came here as soon as we felt the great power that was released," Krillin adds. "But now that you're here we have a chance. We were worried there for a minute."
"Not so fast Krillin," Goku interrupts. "I felt that thing, Majin Buu, fighting Gohan before Vegita knocked me out. If Gohan wasn't strong enough than I don't know what I could do."
"What do you mean Gohan wasn't strong enough?" Videl asks.
"I'm sorry to say." Goku swallows hard. "But Gohan's dead. I can't sense his power anywhere. Vegita too."
Bulma and ChiChi suddenly start crying.
"I don't believe that Gohan is dead," Videl states. "He can't be I can feel it."
"Sorry to interrupt your little moment but we have to do something about Buu," Piccolo says in a solemn tone. "Or the rest of us may be joining them in Other World."
"He's right," Goku says. "We need a plan."
"Goku there's a technique that may be helpful."
"What's that King Kai?"
"There's a technique called the fusion dance. It is commonly performed by the Natamoru Warriors. This powerful technique allows two fighters of similar size and power to join together for 30 minutes as one being. The result is much more powerful the sum of the two powers."
"But there's no one who is of similar size and power. Gohan's gone and so is Vegita."
"The kids, Goten and Trunks could learn it."
"Are you sure it would make them powerful enough."
"Yes I told you that it drastically raised their power."
"Ok we'll try it how do we perform the dance."
"I'll show you." King Kai teleports down to the lookout. "Ok Goku, mirror my movements." After a few awkward moments Goku pretty much has the moves down. "Now when they do this their power must be exactly the same. Now, good luck." King Kai teleports back to his planet.
"Ok let's get started with the fusions."
Goku and the two young Saiyans get ready for a long session of training when all of a sudden Gohan teleports onto the lookout. "Gohan, I thought you were dead," Goku says. "How'd you survive?"
"Well, I was fighting Buu as a Super Saiyan 3 and I was kicking his ass pretty good too. Unfortunately the transformation is still hard to control and maintain."
"I know it hurts to hold it for very long."
"Well anyway, my power gave out and I dropped back into Super Saiyan 2 and then Buu beat the crap out of me. I was knocked unconscious and the Supreme Kai and Kibito took me to the world of the Kais and healed me while Vegita held off Buu. I pulled this sword while I was there. I was going to train with it so I could get strong enough to beat Buu."
"I hate to break up your little party," Piccolo interrupts. But it seems that Buu is wandering this way. If he sees the lookout we're dead."
"Ok, here's what we do," Goku says. "Piccolo you take the boys up stairs and start working on the fusion technique. Gohan wait here while I go and get Buu headed away from here. When I get back we'll go into the hyperbolic time chamber for some training." Goku puts two fingers to his forehead and disappears.
Babidi is riding on Buu's back watching as his monster is destroying everything in sight. They have left countless cities in ruin. Now they are just flying around waiting for something to destroy.
Suddenly a man in an orange gi with black hair appears before them. "Your rampage ends here."
"I don't think so," Babidi says. "Buu kill him."
With a yell Goku powers up to Super Saiyan 3.
"Growing your hair longer and turning it blonde won't help.'
Goku shoots a ki blast killing the annoying little wizard. Buu charges the Super Saiyan 3 but Goku deftly doges the attacks before pummeling the big fat monster.
"Buu no like you. Buu make you dead."
"Now Buu listen to me, you don't have to kill me or anyone else. Killing is wrong."
"Ok Buu kill no more."
"Really, that simple?" Goku asks.
A loud explosion interrupts the little talk as tank shell hit the big pink blob. Steam boils out of Buu's head and a dark cloud forms above the unholy creation. Out over the cloud comes a gray skinny form of Buu. The taller form attacks the pink blob and forces Buu to retreat. Buu shoots a beam at his taller form. "Buu make you candy." The monster deflects the beam and turns fat Buu into a chocolate Buu. The gray being eats the candy. His body turns pink and a grin spread across his face. "Now I'll finish you."
"Wait Buu," Goku says. "Give me a couple of days and I promise you a fight with a warrior much stronger."
"No I think I'll kill you now." Buu charges at Goku delivering a hard punch to the Super Saiyan 3. Goku doubles over in pain but quickly recovers. He throws a punch of his own at Buu. The monster dodges to the side and brings both fists down on Goku's head. The Saiyan falls to the ground causing a huge crater. Goku gets up his hair no longer long and golden but shorter and black. "Now I'll finish you." Buu prepares a ki ball and throws it at the crater. A few minutes later all that remains is an even larger crater with on Saiyan in it. "I guess I'll wait for that even stronger warrior now." Buu laughs. "I'll just have to entertain myself until then."
Goku reappears on the lookout after narrowly using his instant transmission to escape.
"What happened dad? You look bad."
Well, Babidi is no longer a problem, but Buu just got a lot stronger and a lot meaner. I barely escaped."
"What? How could he get any meaner?"
"Well I convinced Buu not to kill anymore. Then there was an internal struggle and Buu managed to expel his evil side. Unfortunately this evil side defeated the good Buu and absorbed it."
"So now he has no restraint?"
"Not only that but he is also more powerful. I just hope he can't sense ki."
"Well, lets keep our power levels suppressed just in case," Piccolo adds. "That goes for everyone."
"Ok," Goku says. "Gohan, get Goten and Trunks. The four of us are going into the hyperbolic time chamber to train."
"What do you mean the four of us? There is no way that Goten and Trunks can become powerful enough to beat Buu and they'll just slow our training."
"King Kai told me about a new fusion technique that might give them the edge if they learn it."
"Oh"
Goku, Gohan, Trunks, and Goten are all in the hyperbolic time chamber. Goku and Gohan both power up to Super Saiyan 3. "Gohan, try and hold this form as long as possible. Maintaining Super Saiyan 3 may be the difference of defeating Buu or being destroyed." Goku turns to Goten and Trunks. "Ok boys, do you remember the stance and movements you saw me and King Kai do?"
"Yeah, it was hilarious," Trunks answers.
"Ok I want you two to set your powers equal." The two boys scream for a second before their power levels even out. "Ok now go through the motions."
"FU… SH…ION… HA!"
"That was good except your fingers didn't quite hit," Goku tells a sickly looking Gotenks." The two boys continue to try the fusion until they get it right. During this time Goku and Gohan take turns training with the Z sword, staying in Super Saiyan 3 most of the time.
A few hyperbolic time chamber days later, Goku says. "Ok Gotenks now I want you to go off and train. But don't go too far into the expanse that you get lost. Goku and Gohan go off in one direction to train and the fused being goes off in the other direction.
About nine months of hyperbolic time chamber time later Gohan hears a message from Piccolo. 'Buu's here. I'm leading him the long way around to get to you. You have about six days to prepare.' Gohan tells Goku, Trunks, and Goten.
"Ok we've done a lot of training in the last nine months. We should rest up and prepare for our fight with Buu.
Piccolo stood on the lookout looking over the edge. It had been 18 hours since the Saiyans had entered the hyperbolic time chamber. In that time Buu had rained destruction all over the earth. Oh well, Piccolo thought. At least we can wish them all back. Suddenly Piccolo felt a huge power coming toward them. A few seconds later Buu stood beside the Namek.
"I was promised a strong fighter if I'd wait. I've waited long enough. Where is this strong fighter?"
"He's not ready yet he has to be at his best. Can't you just amuse yourself by killing people until he's ready? He'll find you when he's ready. And then he'll kill you."
Buu laughs. "I doubt that. I'm the strongest being in existence." He raises his hand and pink balls of energy go flying everywhere. They fly down killing every person on earth. "Now take me to the strong one before I destroy the whole planet."
"Ok I'll lead you to him." Piccolo sends a telepathic message to Gohan. 'Buu's here. I'm leading him the long way around to get to you. You have about six days to prepare.' He leads Buu the long way around taking a couple of minutes, stopping when ever possible. Finally they arrive at the door to the hyperbolic time chamber. Piccolo leads the monster inside to face the Saiyans.
Will Goku and Gohan or even the Fused Gotenks be strong enough to beat Buu? Find out next chapter.
Ok another chapter up. If you have any questions ask me in a review and I'll try to answer. Read and review. I update faster the more reviews I get.
