Chapter 23: The Terror of a Feral Super Saiyan

Katie-

Feeding was only the beginning. Katherine the Slaughterer wasn't defeated so quickly by Vegeta's self sacrifice. At least, not the version you know about. It is true that Vegeta died to save me, but in New Destiny I made it seem more honorable. I made myself look better, I guess. I made myself seem like I was really under mind-control. But I was far worse than you could imagine.

Babi-Dee and Dabura were outside the ship watching Buu parade around as Gohan and Supreme Kai watched. Buu was actually kind of cute, not that it mattered. All that mattered was that Babi-Dee kept his word. I had powered down by now, but I still remained mostly feral.

"This infantine creature is the fear of the universe?" Dabura asked.

"Yes, just wait until he fights." I sneered at Dabura.

"Oh, my dear, how did you do it so quickly?" Babi-Dee asked.

"I beat the shit out of Goku and Vegeta with one blast."

"Quite impressive indeed."

"It was fun." I said cockily.

They are my friends.

They were in my way.

"Buu!" Majin Buu cried out.

"Buu, destroy Supreme Kai!" Babi-Dee ordered.

"Buu no wanna!"

"What! Of all the- hey, where are you going?" Babi-Dee was shocked as I was walking up to Buu.

"Shut up, midget." I sneered back at Babi-Dee.

"What! How dare you-"

"Don't make me repeat myself." I growled, walking up to Buu.

"Ooh, who you? You want play with Buu?"

"No Buu. I have to tell you a secret. Do you see that man over there? He's Babi-Dee. Do you remember Bibi-Dee?" he nodded, paying attention to me completely. "Well, Babi-Dee is his son, and he can put you back into that ball. You don't want that, do you Buu?"

"No, no, no!" Buu said.

"Then do as I say for a while, okay? Listen to him for now. If you do, I'll give you lots of candy later."

"Okay, Buu do!"

I walked back over, completely in control of the situation.

"What was that?" Dabura asked.

"You have to know how to talk to him. He'll listen to you now Babi-Dee."

"Perfect! This is wonderful!" Babi-Dee was so relieved.

Buu walked over -actually he hopped over- and began to fight Gohan. Gohan lost, what a shame. Buu was about to blast him but Supreme Kai had thrown Gohan far away into the woods.

"Master Babi-Dee, this monster is obviously too powerful to control. You must reseal it as soon as possible." Dabura said.

"He will obey me as long as I have dear Katherine the Slaughterer here to help me."

"Thank you, Babi-Dee."

He's a sick midget that needs to die.

He's keeping the Darkness away from me.

The good side of me that was left was becoming more like the true me. Soon we would be one and the same and that irritating little voice would be gone for good.

Dabura did what he thought was best and attacked Buu, throwing a spear through Buu's chest.

"My pet! Dabura, what have you done? Buu, are you okay?"

"Buu is fine. Calm down and watch." Babi-Dee looked on and saw Buu pull out the spear and heal himself.

"Buu, I never knew you had such power!"

"But wait, there's more."

Dabura tried again to attack Buu, but Buu decided he was hungry.

"Buu want cookie!" Buu used that horn on his head and blasted Dabura, transforming the demon king into a life-size cookie.

"You ate him… Buu, that was marvelous!" Babi-Dee was jumping around once more as Buu ate Dabura.

If he acts like that when Dabura is killed, how will he act when I die?

Who said I'm going to die?

Buu began to pound Supreme Kai, and I laughed along with Babi-Dee.

"Buu gonna to make you dead! Buu gonna to make you dead! Buu gonna to make you dead!" Buu cried over and over as he attacked Supreme Kai.

This isn't right, he can't fight back!

But that makes it easier.

He's too weak now.

Right…

"Babi-Dee, I'm hungry. Let me finish off the Kai."

"What?" Babi-Dee froze as recognition lit up in his eyes, "Oh, of course."

"Buu?" I nodded, "Okay!" Buu hopped back over "Now what we do?"

"Just be patient, Buu." I said as I walked toward Supreme Kai.

I knelt down and just watched Supreme Kai for a moment. His breathing was ragged and his face was covered in blood and dirt.

Is this the same guy that was trying to save earth? Why do I care?

I lifted him up by his collar and he whimpered in pain. He slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw me they grew wide.

"Ka- Katherine…"

"So at least someone gets my name right."

"You have to fight this… remember… the future? Remember… your family…"

"Shut up." I bared my fangs and I was about to bite in, when I was once more interrupted. I felt the bones in my wrist crack and I dropped the Kai. I looked up to see Vegeta holding my wrist.

"Da treg Vegeta-augr…" I sneered.

(Baka Prince Vegeta…)

I looked and saw Goku taking the Kai away, teleporting and reappearing.

"Like I can't teleport to him? I know where you took him. So predictable, Kakorot. The Lookout is supposed to be the safest place on the planet… until I make my way there, that is."

"I thought you said they were defeated." Babi-Dee said. I pulled away hard and brought my arm away from Vegeta. I felt the bones heal already.

"Earth magic, they healed themselves. A minor triviality I overlooked, master Babi-Dee."

"You're calling him master now? How pathetic." Vegeta criticized.

"Like you never called Frieza master?"

"The difference is I never meant it!"

"Buu, please dispose of these two." Babi-Dee ordered. Buu looked at me, and I nodded. Somehow Buu took it that I was his master and not Babi-Dee.

He'll kill them.

So?

Goku and Vegeta both powered up, and I noticed that Goten and Trunks were watching on the hill. Piccolo and Krillen had been turned back from stone, and they were there as well.

What if they die?

Better now than later.

I teleported to the hill and sneered. The two boys were Halflings, and the Namekian was like my father. Krillen was like a big brother.

"Take the boys and go. Refuse me, and I'll-" I saw the boys watching me with fear, and it disturbed me, "Just go. I mean it. If Buu doesn't kill you, I will." I growled.

"Katie? What happened?" Krillen asked. I grabbed him by the throat, ready to snap it if I so decided.

"My name is Katherine now. I am Majin and feral. If you do not leave now, I will kill you. Not because of Babi-Dee or Buu, but because I want to." I dropped Krillen and turned. The boys were nearly shaking. I growled, making sure they knew I meant it. Then I teleported back to the battle field.

Goku and Vegeta were both on the ground, Goku slowly getting up, Vegeta not. Goku crawled over toward Vegeta.

"He's too strong… I have to get Vegeta out of here." He was mumbling to himself. I had to laugh. Buu started toward him again.

"Wait Buu." I said, walking over.

"Katherine, what are you doing?" Babi-Dee demanded. I ignored him.

I got next to Goku and Vegeta. I looked them over, and Vegeta was near death. I snorted to catch Goku's attention.

"Kakorot."

"Katherine, please, Vegeta will die if I don't get him to Dende."

"I know. I want you to rest. Get healed. In a few hours I want to fight you again Kakorot, just you. You better not hold back. I know about level three. If you don't… you get the idea."

"Thank you, Katherine." Goku placed his hand on Vegeta's back and vanished.

"Argh! Katherine! Why did you do that?" Babi-Dee ran over and started to kick at me. I only smirked.

"Now that I'm Majin, I don't need your help, wizard." I sneered.

"What?" he stopped, mid-kick, and froze.

"Your usefulness has run out. And don't try to tempt me by saying you're the only one that can put Buu back into his ball, I know you won't. Goodbye." I raised my hand and shot a large blast at Babi-Dee, and he was gone. Buu hopped over and looked at the ashes of his would-be master.

"Oooh-" he laughed, "Now what we do?"

"We have some fun… we go play now." I said, floating into the air, "Come Buu, I know where we can have lots of fun."
