"Why are you trusting him Takaya, he told Kirijo about us and could betray us again." Jin said.
"True, however if his powers go beyond flight he is an invaluable ally in our mission. Tonight we will test his loyalties." Takaya said just as Buu appeared in the sky. "That must be him now."
"How can Buu help?" Buu asked calmly.
"Actually, my friends and I perform certain activities during the dark hour, and I was wondering if you could assist us tonight." Takaya said calmly.
"Ok, what Buu do?" Buu asked with a smile.
"We were hired to eliminate someone and I would appreciate it if you could assist us with this tonight." Takaya said. "Of course it does mean you'll have to kill someone."
"Kill?" Buu asked. "What that?"
"It means you must end the life of another individual." Takaya said calmly. "We were asked to do so tonight."
"Ok, Buu kill person for you." Buu said with a smile.
"I appreciate your help Buu, and I assure you that tomorrow you will experience the true wonders of the dark hour." Takaya said before the four of them walked off into the shadows.

"We should go, the sooner we get to Tarturus the sooner I can stop that shadow." Gohan said.
"We're not going anywhere tonight, everyone is too exhausted after last night." Minato said. "As long as we don't head to Tarturus Cell won't appear either."
"I agree, plus if Buu isn't back we can't take the risk of you being incapacitated, especially if this shadow can appear every night." Akihiko said. "It would be better to wait a day or two and be on the safe side."
"Oh, Akihiko-sempai can I ask you something." Erasa said walking down the stairs.
"Sure, what's on your mind?" Akihiko asked.
"Well, I was just wondering…" Erasa started to say before the dark hour hit.
"I guess you're stuck there for an hour sempai." Minato said calmly.
"No I just need to be back here before the dark hour ends." Akihiko said. "While I wait I may as well get some practice in."
As he said that, Akihiko started heading towards his room.

"Our target is just there, allow me to explain his situation and then you can end his life." Takaya said.
"Ok." Buu said with a smile as Takaya walked up to a coffin before opening it.
"Oh man, my head." said a man in a black suit. "Wait where am I, and who are you?"
"My name is Takaya and these are my associates." Takaya said calmly. "Of course that is irrelevant now."
"Irrelevant, what are you talking about?" the man asked nervously.
"Someone wants you gone and so he asked us to take care of it." Jin asked.
"Wait, are you talking about that website?" the man asked nervously. "Who would want me dead?"
"The reason doesn't matter, all that matters is our client wishes for your demise." Takaya said calmly before turning to Buu. "Now then, I leave the rest to you."
"Ok." Buu said with a smile before forming a ki blast and vaporizing the man in the suit.
"Well, that was certainly efficient." Takaya said calmly.
"Efficient, I guess that's one way of putting it." Jin said. "He flies and has some kind of incredible energy."
"That's very true, I'm looking forward to seeing more of your abilities." Takaya said with a smirk.
"Ok." Buu said with a smile.

"Gohan, if you want to talk about anything I'm willing to listen." Videl said.
"Thanks, but I'm ok for now." Gohan said.
"Alright, if you say so." Videl said quietly before Mitsuru walked up to them.
"Do you two have a few minutes?" Mitsuru asked calmly.
"Sure, what's on your mind Mitsuru-sempai?" Gohan asked.
"Is there anything we should know about Cell in case it becomes necessary for one of us to engage him?" Mitsuru asked.
"There's a lot, I think everyone should hear this." Gohan said. "We should head up to the command room."

"What's going on?" Junpei asked curiously.
"We need as much information about Cell as possible if we're going to engage him on a regular basis." Mitsuru said simply. "Alright Gohan, what do we need to know?"
"Cell wasn't human." Gohan said. "He was a biological android created to kill my dad. He was made up of the cells of a bunch of different people I know, and so he hadthe same powers they did."
"What powers are you talking about Gohan?" Yukari asked nervously. "He's already shown off the same ones as you."
"He has a lot more, he can survive any injury that doesn't vaporize him completely, he has any technique anyone I've met can use, including my old teacher's regeneration." Gohan said.
"Wait, regeneration?" Junpei asked. "You mean like he heals really fast or something right?"
"No, I mean you can blow off his arm and he'll grow a new one in its place." Gohan said.
"So wait, are you telling us there's nothing we can do to stop this guy?" Junpei asked angrily.
"No, there's a way to stop him." Gohan said. "I did it once before, and I can do it again."
"Don't forget Gohan, he's a shadow this time." Minato said. "There's more to his power this time. You'll need our help."

"Kakarot, what are you doing here?" Vegeta asked.
"Vegeta, you saw how powerful Majin Buu was." Goku said. "We need to do something in case he tries to hurt people."
"As much as I hate agreeing with you Majin Buu was incredibly powerful." Vegeta said in annoyance. "So what are you planning on doing to stop him?"
"I don't have much time, but there's a technique I learned in otherworld that can allow Goten and Trunks to combine into a single person with enough power to stop him." Goku said.
"Are you mad Kakarot, a true warrior fights his battles himself." Vegeta said angrily.
"Vegeta, we don't have any other choice, and the technique only lasts a half hour." Goku said.
"Fine, let's see just how powerful this technique of yours is." Vegeta said in annoyance.
(SEES is trying to come up with a plan to confront the Cell shadow, and Goku is preparing to show Goten and Trunks the fusion technique. Next chapter the fusion will be revealed. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
