This story happened in Universes 12, 14 and 15.


Gohan is flying over a ruined (by the Androids) city when he senses a new, evil energy. He spots a creature that looks like Freeza's 3rd form flying carefreely, holding a device used for sucking energy out of innocents.

'Hey, are you Freeza?' Gohan calls out.

The creature stops and turns around. 'No, I'm not the fucking Freeza,' he answers. 'I'm Puipui or Pocus (depending on the dub), a generic, uninteresting villain that greatly surpasses Freeza, even though it was clearly stated at Freeza Saga that Freeza was the strongesst being in the universe, barring Super Saiyans.'

'Speaking of which, I'm a Super Saiyan too,' Gohan cries cheerfully, as if the context is anything but dark, and transforms, because, for some reason, he feels the need to make that point.

A moment of awkward silence, Gohan's sweatdrop glistening under his SSJ aura.

'Err, I'm going to leave now, pretending that this conversation never happened,' Puipui says.

'Err, yeah, and I'm going to stalk you, presumably unbeknownst to you, also pretending that this conversation never happened,' Gohan says.

Puipui flies away and Gohan flies behind him.


'WHAT?' Babidi shrieks, looking at the energy absorbing device indication and then throwing it away. 'This is all energy you could find me? There are obviously not enough living things on this planet. We should take Buu's coocoon and go try our luck elsewhere.'

'LEAVE THIS PLANET NOW!' the hovering Gohan thunders, drawing everybody's attention.

A moments of awkward silence. 'How often do villains leave a place because the hero told them to?' Babidi asks.

'Err, never,' Gohan laughs, stroking his sweatdropping, blonde head.

'Then why did you bother with that?' the wizard asks.

'I just wanted to make a cool entrance,' Gohan protests.

One more moment of awkward silence.

'Okay, now watch my own cool entrance,' Dabura says really fast, flies behind Gohan and traps him in a bear hug.

'Wow, he's fast,' the Saiyan whispers. 'I mean, one would say that, logically, I should have sensed his chi and been able to tell he's like 100 times stronger than the enemies who have been handing over my ass to me daily for the last 7 years, so I shouldn't be surprised by that, but then again, chi sensing ability has always been vague and plot dependent.'

'WOO HOO,' Puipui rushes to the captured Gohan, the energy absorber in his hand.

The half Saiyan breaks free with a kiai that knocks Dabura away. 'Wait a minute,' Gohan asks himself, surprised. 'Did I really break free of the bear hug of an opponent who can turn Androids into his prison bitches? What the fuck, was Salagir on LSD when he was writing this special?'

His thoughts are interrupted by the two enemies attacking simultaneously: Puipui lunging with the energy absorber and Dabura spitting out his stoning saliva. With a shriek, Gohan manages to DOOOOOODGE (Piccolo would be so proud) just in time. As a result, Dabura's spit accidentally stones Puipui.

'DABURA, YOU IDIOT,' Babidi yells. 'Come back to the ship.'

'Okay, master.'

Gohan ponders it. Should he formulate a plan? Or just follow them inside? Oh, whom are we kidding, this is Dragon Ball; follow them inside, it is.


As Gohan wipes one of the spaceship's magic floors with Yakon and his sister (if they were human formed, I'd have written an incest scene here; bummer), Babidi asks Dabura whether he paid his penalty for having tried to stone Gohan earlier.

'Yes, master,' Dabura answers, panting next to Buu's coocoon. 'I gave almost all my energy to Buu. He's almost awake.'

'Which makes me wonder why I didn't just give Buu my servants' energy in the other universes,' Babidi mumbles.

That moment, Gohan shows up. 'DABURA!' Babidi snaps. 'I brainlessly command you to fight him, even though I'm fully aware you have almost no energy left.'

Dabura charges and Gohan easily knocks him out and sends him crashing on Babidi. Then, with a blast, he destroys both of them, along with Buu's coocoon.

'Unbelievable,' the Saiyan whispers, shocked. 'With one single fucking blast... I did what a stronger version of me from another timeline couldn't do. This... this special... makes so little sense that IT HUUUUURTS!'

Unable to take the tension, the lad falls on his knees and clutches his chest. Then, he calms down, takes a casual expression and (still on his knees) says to himself: 'I wonder where Trunks is.'


A few days later, on Kaioshins' planet...

'Master Kaioshin, I apologize for interrupting your sitting on your ass and pretending to be important,' Kibito begins, with a formal, solemn expression nonetheless, 'but I have news. Babidi went to Earth.'

'WHAT?'

A little silence.

'So... do we have a plan for that?' Kibito asks.

'My dear child,' Kaioshin answers, with the same formal, solemn expression as his subordinate. 'There is only one plan us Kaioshins can think of during an emergency... running around panicked and letting out inarticulate cries, Spongebob style.'

After some more silence, both Shin and Kibito take gagly panicked expressions, raise their arms in the air and start running in circles and screaming in desperation.
