(Insert Halleluiah Chorus)
And I'm back! I know I've been gone for SUCH a long time, but my hard drive was fried, what are you gonna do?
Dx: I don't know, maybe ANNOY YOU TILL THE END OF TIME!!!!
RDF1: (boots DragonX out of there for the umpteenth time) What? It's been awhile, he got back while my hard drive was getting replaced.
Gohan: Well, Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and everything else that's passed since then.
RDF1: Same to you guys.
Hercule: So, anything pop up while you were on hiatus?
RDF1: Actually, yes. I've completed most of the details in my head for this chapter, and the next chapter will be able to follow once I've gotten everything on this one completed.
Vegeta: Sweet. In the mean time, I'll kick back and relax while Vegito's beating up on Majin Buu.
RDF1: Actually, to be precise, Majin Buu is in his 'Mystic' form, carried over from Gohan.
FYI everyone, I've worked out how to bring back Gohan into the final battle while giving him an extra of his own.
Disclaimer: Don't own. If I did, then you'd know it.
(Chapter Begin)
(Recap)
Gohan turned to Buu.
"Well, well," said Gohan, "here we are at a crossroads. How about multiple-choice? A, I beat you to a pulp, you spit out Goten, Trunks, and Piccolo, and I kill you, or B, you spit out Goten, Trunks and Piccolo now, and I just kill you without beating you to a pulp. Sounds interesting?"
"How about C: I absorb you and go wipe Goku and Vegeta from existence!!" answered Majin Buu, bringing up his goop around Gohan.
"See you in other world," replied Gohan, as he let himself be absorbed into Majin Buu, his awareness taken away.
(Recap End)
While Vegito battled Majin Buu outside, Gohan woke up to a strange sight. He was within his mindscape, but the sky had a pink hue to it.
'Must be because I've been absorbed by Majin Buu,' thought Gohan, getting up and checking his surroundings. Something felt different, and the pink sky didn't explain it. He felt out for Gohan2 and Oozaru, but felt nothing. He didn't like it.
"Okay, let's find out what's going on," Gohan said to himself.
He powered up a bit and flew off towards the only place that would have answers, his guardians for his powers. When he arrived what his saw scared him. Gohan2 and Oozaru were behind a locked gate with an open area behind it. He looked to the other side and found another pathway open. He figured that's where his Mystic power was. But why did they lock up Gohan2 and Oozaru in the process?
"What's going on here!" demanded Gohan to a nearby Guard, who got a scared look and scurried away.
"BOSS!!" he yelled, getting the head guard's attention.
"What's going on here?" demanded the boss, "I don't like interruptions."
"Well you got a big one right here!" replied Gohan, his anger rising.
"Ah, Master Gohan," said the head guard, looking surprised, "I didn't expect you."
"You're darn right, you didn't expect me!" said Gohan, loathing in his voice, "Let them go, right now!!"
"Sorry, no can do," said the head guard, a smirk showing on his face.
"And why not?" asked Gohan.
"Because," said the head guard, his form changing, "I've been in control of how much power you've actually been able to harness. And let me tell you, it's quite satisfying to think that all of this worked twice."
"What do you…" started Gohan, before recognizing who he really was.
The head guard changed into Cell, while the other guards turned into Cell Juniors.
"You know, I didn't think it'd be this easy," monologued Cell, "All those years ago when you beat me in that other timeline, what you or the others didn't know was that all my Cell Juniors and myself had one cell left after you destroyed us one by one. While you and the others were celebrating my destruction and mourning Goku's death, my kids and I moved into your mind. Sure it took a few years, but I did manage to decrease your power so that you didn't mind it when the 'Mystic' power offered a trade. When you traveled back, you're Mystic Power was sealed away again and you had to unlock it once more, but this time I was more than prepared. We took over as guards of your power, and you didn't think anything of it. That was your first mistake. Now, when you went to access your hidden power, you inadvertently allowed us to lock up your Saiyan power as well. Now with your Mystic power under my control and your Saiyan powers locked up, you can't beat me. I'll destroy you, absorb Buu and become the most powerful being in the Universe!"
(AN1)
Gohan's glare lessened as his mouth formed into a smirk.
"There's one thing you've forgotten," said Gohan, powering up, "I've still got access to that power as well. Let's see who's stronger!"
Gohan moved at Super Speeds, charging into the horde of Cell Juniors as well as Cell himself. Battling seven on one is usually foolhardy, but Gohan could handle himself. As it was his mind, his reflexes were better than they ever would be outside his mindscape. Soon enough, he was able to destroy three of the Cell Juniors, forcing the others to back off. Gohan smirked again, using Instant Transmission to destroy the other four. Cell looked angry and powered up further, hoping to match Gohan's power and speed. Gohan2 and Oozaru, the only other two occupants in the mindscape other than Gohan and Cell, could see a flurry of punches from the two combatants.
"Something's not right here," said Gohan2 to Oozaru.
"Something's coming," said Oozaru, "Gohan's power has been held back for too long. Something gonna give, and when it does, we don't want to be right next to this gate."
Gohan2 nodded and they both jumped up above the gate, though they still couldn't get out due to it being locked.
(AN2)
Gohan smashed his fist against Cells face, only to receive a fist in response. He replied with a kick to the back of the head, only to get a punch in the gut. Cell extended his tail, only for Gohan to grab it and send him flying. Gohan powered up a Kamehameha and sent it towards Cell. Cell recovered and returned with his own. The ensuing explosion covered their field of vision, but that did not stop them from moving in and crossing forearms.
"You can't beat me!" boasted Cell.
"You forget where we are!" countered Gohan, bringing his knee up Cell's stomach, sending him back a few yards.
Both stopped for a few seconds to catch their breath, before charging up Special Beam Cannons and firing them at close range. Gohan used the smoke as cover as he used Instant Transmission to get behind Cell and blast him to the ground.
Gohan landed and fell to his knees.
"This isn't working. I can't access my full power, and even if I did, I can't break down both barriers at once."
Cell managed to stand up, and laughed.
"Don't you get it!? This may be your mind, but unless you manage to DIE, then I don't see you destroying me!!"
The sky lost its pinkness, signaling that they were out of Buu's body.
"It looks like those pathetic fools, Goku and Vegeta, have managed to get this body out of Buu, just like the others," said Cell, "Time seems to be running short, so I'll just kill you now!!!"
Cell charged up one final Kamehameha to destroy Gohan with.
Gohan's glare returned with a fury as he tried to think of a way out of this.
"Don't tell me this is it?" said a voice similar to his own. Young teen Gohan appear in spirit form next to Gohan, smiling the same as on the day Mirai left for his own timeline, "Come on, I thought you came here to change things, not get killed by a weak bug."
"Well that 'bug' gained access to my power, and I let him," replied Gohan
"Don't worry about him, worry about Buu. He's the one that's helping you right now."
Indeed, the pink returned, but grew darker with each passing second.
"Gohan, remember who you really are. WHAT you really are," said Young Gohan, "Finish this the way a Saiyan would!!"
Young teen Gohan faded, his smile returning as he did so. The sky turned white as death engulfed the body.
Gohan felt a surge of power rushing through his body. He remembered that he is a Saiyan by blood and that near death, or actual death, only made him stronger. That, along with the fact that this was his mind, he meld the two powers in his body together, merging their gates into one, surprising Cell.
"What is this?" said Cell, his power disappearing without his focus holding it together.
"Don't you know?" asked Gohan sarcastically, focusing his power.
He brought his left arm up into his Masenko HA! position while his right arm went into the Kamehameha position.
"KA! ME! HA ME!" started Gohan, Blue energy forming in his right hand, "MASENKO!!" Gold energy formed his left, "HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
He brought both arms together, the beams wrapping around each other as they collided with Cell, sending him against the gate.
"This isn't the end!!" declared Cell.
"IT IS!!!!" countered Gohan, focusing more power into the blasts. He didn't even notice that he had changed in that time, "SPECIAL!!!"
"No!" said Cell in fear.
"BEAM!!"
"NO! NO! NO!"
"CANNON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Gohan moved both of his hands in the Special Beam Cannon position and held them together as the power surged through the combined power of the Masenko and Kamehameha.
"NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…………" shouted Cell as he was obliterated.
(AN3)
The blast continued, disintegrating the gate behind it, all the power within it: unleashed.
Gohan panted hard, before noticing what he was.
"I can't believe it!" shouted Gohan, his energy instantly back.
(AN4)
"I'm a Super Saiyan 3!!!" yelled Gohan joyfully.
"Congratulations," said Gohan2, as he and Oozaru walked over.
"But don't think this is over," said Oozaru, killing the mood, "Evil Buu is still out there."
"I prefer Kid Buu," said Gohan, calming himself down, "but I get your point. Thanks guys, for everything, I think."
Gohan smirked as he returned to his body.
Gohan opened his eyes, and saw Goten and Trunks floating in place, their attention on someone other than him. He then realized he was on Piccolo's shoulder.
"Uh, Piccolo?" asked Gohan.
"Hmm?" wondered Piccolo, before realizing Gohan was awake, "Oh. Sorry Gohan."
Gohan got his bearings back and found that he was in front of King Yemma.
"Welcome to the check in station, Gohan Son," greeted King Yemma, "You're dad is currently on the Supreme Kai's planet battling Buu as we speak."
Gohan turned to the monitor built into the wall. Sure enough, Goku was on the Supreme Kai's planet facing off against Buu who just appeared there. Gohan sighed as he resigned to wait until he returned to life to head there. Gohan turned to Piccolo and the others.
"I'm gonna look for Mom, Videl, and Bulma. Find Yamcha and Krillin and stay with them while I'm gone."
"Aw, do we have to?" whined Goten and Trunks in twin speak, despite being one year apart.
"Yes," said Piccolo, "Go ahead kid. Find your girlfriend."
"Shut up Piccolo," said Gohan, slightly irritated, but not denying it. He used instant transmission to get out of there.
Videl was chatting away with Bulma and Chi Chi., when Gohan appeared about ten yards away. Videl turned and noticed him, before rushing over to him and hugging him. Gohan accepted the hug.
"Gohan!" said Videl, tears forming in her eyes, "I thought I'd never see you again."
"Gohan," said Bulma, "Why is there a halo over your head?"
Videl pulled back enough to notice it as well. Gohan sighed.
"I'm dead, along with Earth and everyone on it except for Dende and Hercule," said Gohan sadly, purposefully omitting Goku's return to life.
"My dad's alive?" asked Videl hopefully.
"Yes. He's with Goku and Vegeta right now, keeping Buu away from the rest of the universe."
"What about you?" asked Chi Chi.
"We're gonna be wished back to life, and to Earth soon enough," said Gohan, "Then I'm gonna finish what I started on Earth: defeat Majin Buu."
While waiting for the Namekians to receive their wishing instructions from Dende, the girls told Gohan about what happened with Dabura. Gohan laughed at King Yemma's decision.
"Talk about irony. Couldn't have happened to a meaner guy," said Gohan, "Hey Videl?"
"Yeah Gohan," asked Videl.
"Once this is over, can we talk in private?" asked Gohan, blushing a bit.
"Sure Gohan," replied Videl, who was also blushing.
Chi Chi and Bulma exchanged some nasty grins, thinking about the future of the two lovebirds.
Soon, Gohan sensed something happening all around them. Soon, all of their halos disappeared, along with them.
Gohan opened his eyes and saw that he wasn't with Videl anymore. He looked around and saw Piccolo, Trunks and Goten, looking around confused as well.
"Guys, get to the lookout!" said Gohan, "I'm finishing things, here and now!!!"
Gohan brought up his index and middle fingers to his forehead and disappeared before the others could move.
Hercule couldn't think what was worse: the fact that Goku wasn't at full power yet, or the fact that Vegeta had no energy left to battle. With Vegeta out of the fight and Goku fighting a losing battle, it was only a matter of time before Buu would wipe them all from existence.
(AN5)
Goku fell to the ground, before Buu charged another energy blast; however, before he could launch it, Gohan warped in and kicked him out of the way, the blast deflected to another part of the planet.
"GOHAN!?" shouted Goku and Vegeta.
"Guys, I'll handle Buu. Get the Spirit Bomb going!" shouted Gohan, powering up to a Super Saiyan 3 himself.
"Majin Buu," said Gohan, in a loud voice, "Our last fight was interrupted. Let's pick up where we left off!"
Gohan charged after Buu and battled fiercely, leaving the other three behind.
"Okay guys," said Hercule, getting serious for once in his life, "We've already used the first two wishes to restore Earth and her people back. Let's get them to help out."
"Well," said Vegeta, "Don't just stand there. Call out to Earth."
"But how can we do that?" asked Goku.
"Just say 'King Kai, connect us to Earth, please?'" said King Kai, his voice echoing around them.
"Wow," said Goku, slapping himself against the head, "How could I forget that?"
"It's easy, considering how thick your head is," joked Vegeta.
"Guys, focus," said Hercule.
"Communications to Earth are open," said King Kai, "Speak when ready."
"Let's do it," said Hercule, taking a deep breath, "People of the Earth. This is Hercule, your World Champion. I know things seem strange, but I assure you: everyone on Earth died and returned to life. I and three of my best fighters have continued the fight with Buu away from the Earth. However, I will need help in order to defeat him for good. EVERYONE: RAISE YOUR HANDS TO THE SKY AND OFFER UP YOUR ENERGY TO ME SO I CAN BEAT MAJIN BUU FOR GOOD!!!"
Everyone at the Lookout heard the message, as well as the rest of the planet.
"Not exactly humble," said Videl, sweatdropping, "But it gets the job done."
Everyone raised their hands and energy flowed from them across the universe.
Goku raised his hands and used his energy as a source to create the Spirit Bomb. The energy flowed from space into it, increasing its size tremendously.
Gohan noticed this and gathered energy into his hand, before punching Kid Buu straight through the gut, forcing him to spit up Good Buu from inside of him. Good Buu returned to normal size.
"Buu," said Gohan, "Protect Hercule and Bee. I've got this one covered."
"Right," said Buu, heading over to the others.
Gohan returned his attention to Evil Buu.
"I think it's time I ended this. Masenko HA!!!" shouted Gohan, unleashed a massive Masenko Ha! on Kid Buu.
Kid Buu got hit with it, but recovered in a matter of seconds.
'Now I know why Dad had such a tough time, as well as a fun time,' thought Gohan, as he continued fighting Kid Buu, 'This guy's the ultimate opponent anyone could ask for. He recovers like crazy and his stamina's insane, even by imagination standards.'
Goku had collected all the energy, but still felt it wasn't enough.
"Dende, can you get the Dragon to restore my power?" asked Goku, as he moved into position.
"On it," replied Dende.
A few seconds later, Goku felt his energy restored, actually greater because of his Saiyan blood. He signaled to Gohan when he was ready, who nodded while fighting.
"Buu," said Gohan, "It's been fun, but you gotta go. If King Yemma can swing it, hopefully I'll see you again someday."
Gohan got on the other side of Buu and charged up his power.
"KAME-SENKO-CANNON!" shouted Gohan, using the combined form of all three special attacks he learned over the years directly at Buu, forcing him back into the Spirit Bomb thrown by Goku.
"That was a fun battle," said Goku, "Let's do it again sometime. Maybe we could do a little one-on-one."
The combined powers of both attacks disintegrated Buu piece by microscopic piece.
Kid Buu appeared in front of King Yemma.
"Well," said Yemma, "Considering Goku and Gohan want it so bad, I'm reincarnating you Buu. You shall be known as Uub, a Human Boy living on Earth with Family that will care for you as you care for them. And your evil shall be cleansed, to make your new life pure as it once was with Good Buu."
So, Buu's evil and memory was stripped from him and he was reborn as Uub in a small village, where he grew up with his brothers and sisters in peace.
(AN6)
After the battle was over, Goku and Gohan landed next to Vegeta, Buu, Bee, and Hercule. Kibito Kai, Dende, and Elder Kai returned to the Planet, Bardock and Fasha having returned to Other World once Buu arrived there, and Dende set about healing them. Once they had recovered, Goku and Gohan used Instant Transmission to get them and their friends to the Lookout.
When they arrived back on Earth, Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan walked out first, not wanting to scare the others, minus Piccolo, about Buu. Bulma, Chi Chi, and Videl ran from the group to greet them, hugging them fiercely. They returned the hugs gently, so as to not snap them in half with their crazy, immense strength.
"Do you DARE go off and do that again!!" demanded Videl.
"I don't think that'll stop him, Videl," said Chi Chi, smirking.
"As much as it pains us, we let it happen," agreed Bulma, "Our mates love fighting more than anything, even food if it was serious."
Everyone chuckled at that point. Hercule came out with Bee and Buu behind him and Videl ran to hug him.
"You big oaf. Another victory for the 'World Champ,'" right?" said Videl, a smirk on her face.
"Don't you know it?" replied Hercule.
Goku explained to the others what happened to Buu over the last week.
(AN7)
"Well," said Bulma, "Hopefully six months will go by in a snap."
"Let's head home," said Krillin.
Everyone took their separate ways home, readying for some relaxation.
Over the next few months, Gold Fighter and Videl saved Satan City from would-be thugs and small-time criminals. Gohan had indeed talked to Videl and they were now officially boyfriend and girlfriend. Goku and Vegeta enjoyed time with their family, particularly their sons (Goku more with Goten because he and Gohan had already worked things out), and Chi Chi and Bulma were helping each other whenever Goten and Trunks were at each other houses. Good Buu moved in with Hercule, after assuring his staff what had happened, and they made sure Bee was safe so Buu could keep his cool. Piccolo continued to live on the Lookout, meditating in peace. Soon six months had passed and Goku wished the people's memories of Buu away. He was glad that he could see the Eternal Dragon, something he had missed in other world.
A few weeks later found Buu strolling down the street to get some ice cream. Upon finishing it, he was coerced into shopping with Bulma, as Vegeta and Trunks went to visit Goku and Goten for the boys to continue their training under Fusion. This landed them both in a Jewelry store that robbers attempted to steal from, only to be stopped by Buu. Gohan and Videl were outside, chuckling at what had happened along with Bulma.
That night, the Briefs and the Satans were over at the Son residence for a get together. Goku was enjoying a bath with Goten and Trunks. Things got heated up when Goku decided to duck their heads under water. They got out and fused into Gotenks, but it didn't help as everyone heard the commotion and Chi Chi raced after them to give them their proper punishment.
(Author's Dimension)
Okay guys. I didn't want to do this, but it seems like it is necessary. Since the finally of this series is ten years in the future, and there are two-three movies that could fit in here, I'd thought I'd give a shot at adding them. The first is Fusion Reborn. This one I fully believe CAN fit into the 'timeline,' if only because of GT where Vegeta suggested fusion. So, for GT to be considered, Fusion Reborn can also be considered, especially because of the similarities between Good Buu and Janempa, as well as Adult Evil Buu and Janemba. The next is Wrath of the Dragon. This one I personally believe that it could fit with the main timeline, or somehow in the Mirai Timeline considering the sword is EXACTLY the same. The last one hasn't been translated into English yet, but IS subtitled, so I'll be working with that. Expect one more chapter after this one, for I will only do Fusion reborn as an AU portion of this chapter. So, here we go!!!!!!!
(Dragonball Z Dimension)
In an alternate universe, where Goku and Vegeta couldn't be brought back to life, and Vegeta couldn't get a pass to Other World, another Other World Tournament was underway and Goku and Pikkon made their way to the finals. However, unbeknownst to them, a new worker for King Yemma was slacking off work and the evil cleanser had overflowed a container. This caused an explosion that mutated the worker. With the evil of Majin Buu within a container unto itself, the worker mutated into a creature similar to Majin Buu, but far more powerful and deadly that Majin Buu ever was.
Gohan was having lunch with Chi Chi, Goten, and Videl, his girlfriend, when a chill went down his spine. He felt more Ki signatures than ever: More than 100x normal for the current day. Downside, some of them he's felt before, and he didn't like it.
Meanwhile, Videl was washing dishes when the call came in. She looked toward Gohan.
"Shall we?" she asked.
"We shall," said Gohan, calling for Goten as they headed outside.
Gohan changed into Gold Fighter and he used Instant Transmission to transport the three of them to the city.
When they got there, it looked like WW3. Given that many lives from the past century was walking around again like when they were in their prime, it didn't help the WW3 aspect.
"Goten, get Trunks out here, we'll need him as well," said Gohan, before moving to take out a few zombies that were in the area.
'Trunks, better get down here,' thought Goten to Trunks. They had worked on this ever since Gotenks calmed down, 'Something's up and Gohan's not liking it.'
'I'm on my way, Goten. I'm leaving now,' replied Trunks.
'I'm on my way, Goten. I'm leaving now,' replied Trunks.
Trunks made his way downstairs, but was stopped at the door.
"Trunks," said Bulma, in a warning tone.
"Mom, Gohan's calling. I need to go."
"Stay safe," said Bulma, allowing Trunks to fly out at super speed to Satan City.
After about ten minutes of fighting zombies, Gohan felt a stronger energy signature, followed by about a hundred others. He flew up on a nearby roof and found the nearest energy signature. It was someone who haunted his nightmares at one point. Now, he was just irritated by the mere thought of him. Frieza was the one on the roof.
"Don't get overconfident just because you defeated a few mindless human zombies," taunted Frieza, "You haven't even begun to realize the depths of this fight."
"Frieza," said Gohan, emotionlessly, though one could feel the hatred coming from him.
"So, a random stranger knows my name?" wondered Frieza, "My reputation proceeds me again."
"It seems like you have a faulty memory," said Gohan, reverting back his body, but with glasses still on, "But I don't. We fought on Namek years ago."
Frieza then recognized him.
"Your that little monkey brat!" realized Frieza.
"Looks like you've forgotten my name. Let me remind you," said Gohan, taking off his glasses, "I am Son of Goku, Guardian of all that is good: Gohan!"
"Nice one," said Videl, clapping, "I think that's the best one I've heard."
"I'd love to wipe Goku out of existence," said Frieza, a smirk showing on his face, "But taking out his son will be the next best thing."
"Like you'd ever know," countered Gohan, who began focusing his power.
He swatted his tail down, and dozens of past foes floated up, including Cooler and Bojack.
"TEACH THIS SON OF A SAIYAN A LESSON!!!!"
All of them charged at Gohan, who responded by powering up without going Super Saiyan and blasted off at Super Speed towards Frieza. He focused power into his right fist and punched Frieza in the gut, before releasing his power, flooding it through Frieza, obliterating his body.
The others got scared, even Cell, Bojack, Cooler, and King Cold, and tried to run for it, but Gohan killed all four of them. The others were taken out by the tag team of Goten and Trunks.
"Guys," said Gohan, focusing on his father's Ki, "I'll leave the rest in your hands. I'm going to check on Dad."
Gohan brought up two fingers and used Instant Transmission to teleport to HFIL.
(AN8)
Meanwhile, Goku was having problems of his own. After leaving Pikkon to deal with the barrier around the North Galaxy Check-In Station, he led Janempa down to HFIL where he battled him, forcing him to turn into Janemba. Janemba quickly turned the tides of battle, forcing Goku back into a corner. Before Janemba delivered the final blow, a blast from Vegeta intercepted it, allowing Goku to rest.
"Kakarot," said Vegeta, "Now's not the time for questions. I'm sure Gohan will be here soon anyways. Long story short, I'm here to help and ready to fight. Take a breather while I battle Janemba."
Vegeta powered up and started battling Janemba. Upon being out-maneuvered, Vegeta quickly changed into Super Saiyan 3 to turn the battle, but was forced out of it due to Janemba's chokehold. Goku sped to prevent him from being punctured in the Mountain of Needles. They set down on the ground.
"Kakarot," sighed Vegeta, "You need to get out of here. Find Gohan, he'll be able to figure out a plan of attack while I hold off Janemba."
"N! O! Vegeta," denied Goku, "If we're going to do this, then we need to work together."
"He picked us apart, even without a break in between," said Vegeta.
"Well, yeah," said Goku, in a 'duh' voice, "Separately."
"You can't be serious," said Vegeta in a deadly voice.
"I AM serious," said Goku, "Fusion is the only way."
"I will NOT do that. I allowed Trunks to do because he's still young and Earth is his home. He wouldn't be ridiculed like on Planet Vegeta."
"Vegeta," countered Goku in the same deadly voice Vegeta used before, "A Saiyan's TRUE pride isn't about fighting. It's about protecting the ones we love. Trunks learned the dance so he could protect those he cares about. Are you saying you're too proud to do the same, even if Bulma's life was on the line? Because it is, whether you like it or not!!"
Sounds of fighting could be heard outside and they both knew Gohan had shown up to take up the fight.
"Let's go Kakarot," said Vegeta, "Gohan's buying us the time we need."
Meanwhile, Gohan was battling Janemba as a Super Saiyan 3. Thanks to his 'Mystic' Powers, he was able to blast Janemba even when he's transcended dimensions to teleport. Gohan felt Goku and Vegeta leave the area and smirked. He backed off and focused his power.
"So," said Gohan, "Let's see you handle THIS: Special Beam Cannon!!"
Janemba had a hole through his chest, which healed over in milliseconds. Gohan focused his power into his fist again and attempted a repeat of what happened with Frieza. Janemba was a step ahead of him and slammed his tail into his back. Gohan was stunned long enough for Janemba to go after Goku and Vegeta.
Goku and Vegeta were along the pillar of non-gravity blocks, hoping that Gohan could buy them enough time.
"Vegeta, let's get to work," said Goku.
Vegeta nodded and watched and listened as Goku explained the technique.
"While the technique is fairly simple, we need to put are spiritual energies in harmony. Our powers need to be the same and your posture needs to mirror mine."
"Posture?" asked Vegeta, fear growing within him.
"Showing is better than telling for me, so just watch," said Goku, getting into position, "Fu…" he said, moving in the first step of the Fusion Technique, "First, think of two rivers flowing toward one another, getting narrower as they approach each other." He then went through the second step, "Sion… Note that knee and arms are facing opposite directions."
He finished the technique, "HA!! The rivers meet at two different points, the water gives way under the building pressure and become one. This creates a new being, one being made of traits and personalities from both of us."
"Do you know how humiliating that looks?" asked Vegeta, trying to keep yelling.
"The look isn't important," replied Goku, looking serious as he does when he faces a great opponent, "The result is. Besides, no one will be watching you."
"Fine," sighed Vegeta, "If my son can do, then I should have no qualms about it."
Goku and Vegeta got into position and focused their power. They ran through the motion, only for Vegeta to miss Goku's fingers on the last step, thus Veku appeared.
By the time Gohan caught up to Janemba, he was beating up Veku in a way that reminded him of Buu with Gotenks and Piccolo absorbed. Gohan couldn't help but face fault.
"Vegeta," sighed Gohan, sweatdropping, "Why does this happen on the first attempt. Gohan followed them to the destroyed Mountain of Needles, where Janemba broke off a needle to skewer Veku with. Gohan charged out and broke the needle as it extended, but part of it continued on to Veku. At the last second possible, the Fusion ended and Goku and Vegeta were able to dodge the needle fragment and charge after Janemba, surprising him and they were able to buy some time. Gohan flew after them.
"Kakarot!! Mind telling me what happened. That was worse than getting beaten up by Frieza!!"
"I don't know," said Goku.
"Something went wrong, that's for sure," said Gohan, looking back to where Janemba was following them.
"You guys were not synchronized," said King Kai, his voice echoing around them, "Vegeta's hands weren't the proper placement."
"What!?" cried Vegeta, "It's MY fault we turned into that lard!?"
"Watch those fingers," said Goku, a goofy grin on his face, "The index fingers need to meet mine."
"Guys, I'll hold off Janemba for as long as I can. Try to get it right this time," said Gohan, before stopping and facing Janemba, "Okay, you monstrosity. Let's go!!"
Gohan charged at Janemba, only for him to block him with his tail. Gohan grabbed it and threw Janemba for a loop, before he recovered and punched Gohan in the gut. Gohan responded with a knee to the face, which Janemba blocked and used his tail to grab Gohan by the neck, choking him.
'Come on,' thought Gohan, 'you can do this, Gohan.'
Gohan was forced to let go when Pikkon intervened and knocked Janemba away from him.
"Thanks," said Gohan, "Now let's…"
Gohan was cut off by Janemba transcending Dimensions again, before returning and blasting both of them to the ground. However, they had done enough for Goku and Vegeta to realign their energies and fuse properly, going Super Saiyan upon fusing.
Meanwhile, on Earth, Goten and Trunks were having the time of their lives beating up on a half-century out of date army.
(AN9)
They stopped when they felt two powers give way to a completely new one.
"Hey Trunks!" said Goten, enthusiastic about this turn of events, "Our dads fused!!"
"YEAH!" replied Trunks, with the same enthusiasm, "Let's get Gotenks to join him."
FU! SION!! HA!!!!!!!
Gotenks stood proudly as a Super Saiyan, knowing that his Dad was handling things in Other World, and he was gonna do the same on Earth.
"Super Ghost Kamikaze ATTACK!!" shouted Gohan, bringing about dozens of Ghosts. "GHOSTS!! ATTACK!!!"
This brought about the end to not so WW3.
"YEAH!! FUSION ROCKS!!!" declared Gotenks, to no extent of a lie.
Gogeta stood proudly in front of Janemba. With his determination to overcome all things from Vegeta and his pure heartedness and innocence from Goku, he was the perfect warrior against Janemba: His positive force against Janemba's negative force.
Janemba called out his Negative powers in hopes to deter this newcomer, but nothing doing.
"Every force you create has an echo. Your own bad energy will be your undoing," declared Gogeta.
Moving faster than Instant Transmission in Super Speed could ever hope to come close to; Gogeta launched a dozen punches as he passed by Janemba without even making a move to hit him. He turned around and kneed him in the back of the neck twice. Janemba turned around only to be kicked in the face. Then, Gogeta raised his left hand as he turned around to face Janemba for one final time; he focused all the positive energy in his being into a single sphere of energy. Janemba charged in hopes of undoing this being in front of him once and for all. Gogeta launched his positive energy into Janemba, erasing the Negative energy within so that the punch Janemba threw at his face never connected, because it wasn't there to connect. The energy that was left reconfigured into the new worker. Upon looking up at Gogeta and remembering all that he did as Janempa and Janemba, the worker ran off with a silent promise never to listen to music at work again.
Gogeta gave a soft chuckle as Gohan and Pikkon landed behind him, having recovered from their beating.
"So, Gogeta," said Gohan, "How's Vegeta holding up in there?"
"He's doing fine," said Gogeta, "Surprisingly he doesn't mind this as long as it's last resort."
Gohan had to snicker at that, before turning to Pikkon, "Name's Gohan, Goku's son."
"Pikkon from the West Quadrant," replied Pikkon, shaking Gohan's hand.
"Well, since Janemba's gone, I'd better be heading back home. Videl's gonna kill me if I don't do the dishes with her.
Goku chuckled with empathy at his son's remark; considering he did everything he could to avoid it.
Later, at the blood pond, Goku and Vegeta had separated and were saying their goodbyes.
"Thanks for everything Vegeta," said Goku.
"No thanks necessary," said Vegeta, smiling, "It was a blast. One that I won't forget for a long time."
"Same here," said Goku, "I loved every minute of it."
Vegeta vanished into the blood pond, his work finished for now.
Goku returned to the Grand Kai's planet, only to find out that the finals have been postponed due to Universal endangerment. This allowed both Goku and Pikkon two days respite before resuming their bout.
Gohan appeared back in the city a few yards from Videl. Videl smiled and launched herself at him, kissing him for his 'victory' over Janemba with Gogeta and Pikkon. Gohan returned it in kind and they stayed there, ignoring everything at the moment, including two peeping kids.
When they were flying home, Goten and Trunks admitted to spying on them, though they really didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
"Boys, just for that, YOU'RE taking over Dish duty," scolded Gohan, like the big brother he is.
"You've got to be kidding!" cried Trunks.
"Chi Chi's supervising, so don't break anything, otherwise it's coming out of YOUR allowance, Trunks," added Videl, "And I'm sure you don't want to be grounded, eh Goten."
"Let's go!" yelled Goten, grabbing Trunks and used Instant Transmission to get them out of there.
Gohan and Videl chuckled.
"Let's head home," said Gohan.
"Right with you," replied Videl.
And the two of them flew the rest of the way home, hand in hand.
(Chapter End)
Well, maybe that's not TOO bad.
Gohan: When did you actually think of using Cell from my timeline as a way for me to ascend to SS3?
RDF1: Sometime ago, probably as I was finishing the fifth chapter. The details came in over the last few months though. It WAS a good break for me to get back my inspiration and imagination to finish writing this fic.
Piccolo: So, everything's done now, right? Or is there more?
Dx: Well, if you looked up earlier you would see that RDF1 is going to have another chapter wrapping things up.
RDF1: Right. Next chapter is Wrath of the Dragon, followed by Return of Goku and Friends, and finishing up with the last episode of Dragonball Z where Uub is heading off to train with Goku.
Right now: The Author Notes.
AN1: Yes, I have Cell fall prey to the biggest weakness any villain will ever have: Monologuing. Every villain that does it gives the hero a chance to think of a way to bring about victory instead of defeat.
AN2: Logic. Considering this a mindscape, it follows different rules of Logic.
AN3: I would like to thank the people at TeamFourStar for providing us with this excellent dialogue, which I couldn't resist putting up here.
AN4: Well, again Mindscape logic: you're only as tired as you think you are.
AN5: Well, consider that a recap for canon before it gets altered for the better, at least for Gohan fans.
AN6: Well, I'd thought I'd put this to lead up into the final part for Uub's part, considering there's a LONG way to go from there to the end for Goku and Gohan's side.
AN7: Consider the flashback of Goku understand what Buu went through the explanation for which was told to the others.
AN8: Since Gohan doesn't show up again until after all the big action is over, I thought I would move him elsewhere so he could help out Goku and Vegeta.
AN9: I considered putting Germans in, but they're really not, even though one would make the comparison quite easily without trying.
Okay guys, one last thing before we end it.
Omake time! I haven't had one of these in a while. So I'd thought to give three more in honor of how much you like them.
Goten and Trunks meet Oozaru.
(Omake 1 Begin)
Trunks was spending the night over at the Son residence. As bedtime rolled around, Goten couldn't find his brother anywhere. He alerted Trunks to this and they decided to head out to find him, not knowing what that would bring.
Gohan stood out in the middle his old training area with Piccolo all those years ago. Here he was keeping a promise to someone he met years ago. He looked up and saw the full moon, thus triggering his transformation. His body grew, as well as fur all over. He grew to about 150 feet high, his tail itself being 40 on its own. From there, his eyes turned blood red as gave a loud roar. The Oozaru had returned.
'Okay Oozaru, this is just for tonight,' said Gohan from within his mind, 'I'm not gonna make a monthly session out of this.'
'Relax,' replied Oozaru, 'Tonight's gonna be a good night for me. The moon is in Luna Perigee. This will be most satisfying.'
Oozaru had fun wrecking the mountains there for about an hour when Goten and Trunks showed up.
"Trunks," said Goten, fear threatening to engulf him, "What is that?"
"Uh oh," said Trunks, "That's the Oozaru. Dad told me about this last year. The Oozaru were the Saiyan's transformed State upon receiving Blutz Waves in their eyes from a Full Moon. Only Saiyans like us would have tails, and we had our removed a long time ago."
"Then who?" asked Goten, "Your dad also said that his was removed in the first fight with my dad, right?"
"Yeah," said Trunks, before focusing his Ki to sense the energy in the Oozaru and his eyes widened when he realized who it was, "Goten, that's your brother."
"What?" cried Goten, "It can't be!"
"But, it is."
"We gotta do something!"
"If we can cut his tail off, then he can transform back."
Oozaru turned around to face them.
"Hello, boys!!" said Oozaru, his tone sending chills down their spine, "So you think getting rid of me will save your brother, eh? Well, let's see about that."
So Goten and Trunks powered up and charged at Oozaru, who just swatted them away like they were flies. Goten and Trunks recovered and sent Ki Blasts at him, with minimal damage. Oozaru chuckled and swung at them with his massive arms, having the time of his life. Goten and Trunks did everything they could to dodge most of the strikes, but two got in, sending them down to the ground. They recovered and flew above him.
"Burning attack!" shouted Trunks, unleashing his signature move.
"Kamehameha!" followed Goten, unleashing his family's technique.
Oozaru opened his mouth and fired his own blast, meeting the other to and setting off a big explosion.
"What do you boys think you are doing?" shouted a voice from afar.
"Gohan, why in Kami's name are you fighting the boys as Oozaru?" followed another voice.
All three turned to see Vegeta and Piccolo staring at them, seriousness in their expressions.
"But, Oozaru's got my brother!" started Goten.
"Yeah, we were only trying to help!" added Trunks.
Oozaru just laughed.
"You think I took over this body by force? That's too rich! HA! HA! HA! Gohan allowed me to take over tonight to stretch my arms and legs. I haven't been out of his mind in years."
"In any case," said Piccolo, "Get back home. I'm sure Chi Chi would love to hear this one, even from you Gohan."
'Fine,' sighed Gohan.
Oozaru shrunk back down to size and Gohan was once again in control.
"You two really shouldn't jump to conclusions like that," said Gohan, "I'll explain later. Get back to the house, NOW!"
Trunks grabbed Goten and hightailed it out of there.
"See you guys tomorrow," said Gohan, bringing up his fingers to his forehead.
"Two-on-one spar tomorrow," said Vegeta, before Gohan left.
"You vs. us," added Piccolo, before the three of them went their separate ways.
(Omake End)
Well, hopefully that was funny. If not, I've got another coming right now.
If Buu went back as well.
(Omake 2 Begin)
Buu shouted out in a loud voice, before calming down instantly looked around where he is now.
"This not Hercule's house," said Buu, landing softly.
"Buu!?!?" said Gohan, sweatdropping at his one-time friend.
"Hey Gohan!" said Buu, "Where are we? Last thing I remember was eating at Hercule's Hotel."
"We're in the past," explained Gohan, before looking over to where Babidi and Dabura were looking on, bewilderment in their eyes, "I think it's time to change history for good."
Gohan rushed at Babidi and killed him instantly.
"MASTER!!" shouted Dabura, before being faced with a fist through his gut.
"Sorry Dabura, but you need this," apologized Gohan, letting Dabura dying body fall to the ground before fading away.
"You feel that Kakarot?" asked Vegeta.
"Yeah," said Goku, before noticing something different about Vegeta, "HEY! You're mark is gone!"
"Hmm?" said Vegeta, before feeling no overwhelming desire for revenge inside of him anymore, "Wow, you're right. Let's blow up the ship and see what's going on."
"Right," nodded Goku.
Gohan explained to Supreme Kai what had happened when the ship suddenly exploded. Goku and Vegeta stood among the rubble.
"What's going on here?" demanded Vegeta.
"Looks like this Buu here is from my time. Though this totally messes up everything," said Gohan.
Just then Cell appeared out of Gohan's head.
"THAT'S IT!! I CAN'T WAIT ANY LONGER!!"
Cell used his planetary bomb technique to obliterate everything.
(Omake 2 End)
Funny, yet sad at the same time.
One more on it's way, and I bet you anything rational that this one will be funny, or scary.
Chi Chi and Bulma learn the Fusion Technique.
(Omake 3)
It was just another training day for the guys. Goku, Gohan, Goten, Vegeta, and Trunks were training out in the wilderness when Goten and Trunks fused. Goku and Vegeta fused to counter them.
"Oh well," said Gohan, "Guess I'm the odd one out."
Gohan stood back while Gotenks and Gogeta spared until they heard two voices that signed their death warrants.
Chi Chi and Bulma stood there, glaring at their fused Husbands and Sons before looking at each other.
"You think we should show them?" asked Chi Chi.
"Let's," smirk Bulma, "I'm sure SHE'D like to have a word with her husband and son."
FU!! SION!! HA!!!!!!!!
In place of Chi Chi and Bulma, stood the worst nightmare of everyone, especially for Gogeta and Gotenks. A woman, who had Blue hair with black on the sides, Bulma's eyes and Chi Chi's mouth. They had a Blue undershirt on under the Vest to cover up some sizable breasts. The pants were the same as all Fused Warriors wore.
"WELL!!" said Chima, Wife of Gogeta and Mother of Gotenks, "YOU THINK YOU COULD JUST FLY AWAY AND TRAIN THE DAY AWAY, HUH? WELL, FOR YOUR INFORMATION MISTERS!! I'M GONNA KICK ALL YOUR BUTS FROM HERE UNTIL THE FUSION WEARS OFF!!"
This resulted in hell for Gogeta and Gotenks, despite being the most powerful warrior in the universe, and his son. Gohan watched from the sidelines.
"Interesting," commented Gohan, "Bulma's short temper with Chi Chi's tendency to yell at her husband, or is that the other way around. Could even be both, and THAT'S scary."
"WHAT DID YOU SAY!!" shouted Chima, rounding on Gohan.
"Later!" said Gohan, using Instant Transmission to leave.
(Omake 3 End)
Uh oh, my imagination's come to life, RUN!!!!!!
Later,
RDF1
(Zips away)
