Next chapter will be July 3rd unless something gets in the way.

I hope you understand and still enjoy.


Won the Battle, Not the War

Deep in space in an asteroid feild there was what looked like a ship frozen.

Towa appeared in front of the ship. "Now, let's see what you bring to the table." She used her magic to defrost a small area around her including the ship.

She then pressed a few buttons and then it opened revealing what looked liked an alien grey infant.

"It's time to wake up."

The creature's eyes widened, a powerful pink aura enveloped the whole area.

"My such a vast amount of energy, Dr Myuu truly was a genuis."

"Myuu?" The creature asked.

"I'm afraid he perished, due to a certain God of Destruction's rampage."

The creature tilted its head.

"Now that's not important, I think you know what you want. There are still saiyans alive and well."

"Sssaiyans"

"Hmhmhmhm, I can take you to the planet if you'd like and all I'd want is for you to wreak havoc." Towa giggled, this thing was almost adorable.

The creature smiled at that.

"What might I call you?"

The creature remembered what his father called him. "Baby"

"Mhmhm, alright, Baby" She waved her staff and opened a portal. "Let me take you to earth."

(-)-(-)-

16 was punched in the get by Rilldo's hand and he used his drill to pierce the android's chest.

Zangya looked surprised and stood up in an attempt to intervene.

The Machine Mutant laughed as he sees the wires and electric currents from the gaping hole of the robot.

16 opened his eyes and smiled much to Rilldo's shock. The Android punched Rilldo in the face and sent him flying. The general crashed through a couple mountains making them fall and turn to rubble

The Machine Mutant flew out of his crater, shook his head and sees wires in the hole in 16's chest connecting together. "What?!"

The Android was made whole and fired a Rocket Punch and his opponent caught it with a smile. Only for it to explode causing more scratches to appear all over his body.

Rilldo growled as his new armor was already cracked, his new form damaged by this earth contraption. Dr Myuu was the greatest scientist in the universe and this machine marred his creation.

16's arm was quickly repaired with the Kachin metal. He then aimed his fists. "Multi Rocket Punch!" He fired his fists aiming at the enemy.

The general floated above the propelled fists and sees them following him. He turned to see 16 with newly repaired fists and he fires them both at him in addition. Dr Myuu's creation swayed the rocket punches and flies with them chasing after him.

Zangya got on one knee making herself stand and watch the spectacle. "I had no idea this Android was this powerful." How did a planet with such mediocre technology create these Androids and Cyborgs?

"Enough!" Rilldo had flown above 16 with the six Rocket Punches homing towards him. He aimed his drill and created a giant energy wave the shape of the drill. It destroyed the rocket punches without damaging himself.

16 sees it coming and caught it in both hands. The drill was able to pierce the artificial skin in his hand. Again, his metal was being damaged, but the power core seemed to have picked up with this predicament. This maybe the first time his power core would be pushed this far without destroying his body. Bulma is truly a genius.

But to the android this was a mere nuisance.

He looked up at the Machine Mutant and fired Ki from his eyes.

The beam hit Rilldo in the eyes and made him stop his drill.

16 flew over and punched him in the abdomen. He then grabbed his head kneed him and grabbed him at his sides.

"Grr! Let go of me you defected scrap!" Rilldo struggled but even with all his might he couldn't get out of 16's grip.

The Android flew down with him still in his arms Rilldo screamed as they plummeted and crashed into the ground.

16 flew above the crater Rilldo floated a few feet away and cackled.

His armor was nearly destroyed, his drill gone, metal chips are all over his body "You are just a marvel of technological, aren't you?" He cackled.

"It is over." 16 stated. "Surrender and leave, you are not under Towa's control."

Rilldo laughed loudly. "Fool I have one final trick to show you!" The metal on his body began to melt.

The Android watched as his power spiked again, he was changing once more.

Rilldo's new form was light blue and looked like he was in nothing but a body suit. "Ready?"

16's power core accelerated further, hopefully his Kachin metal can keep up.

(-)-(-)-

Lapis and Lazuli both charged against Kid Buu.

Buu roared as he threw two punches.

But he only hit after images.

'Accel After Image'

Many copies of the twins appeared all around him jumping and spinning.

Buu growled and was going to create an explosive wave.

Only to be elbowed in the back of the head by Lapis, kneed in the gut by Lazuli, and double stomped on his head making it sink into his body.

Buu's turning red as he is attacked in multiple places at once.

The demon split into four pieces as the twins tried to kick his face.

The duo stopped and looked around to see four mini Kid Buus around them laughing.

"Freak!" Lazuli shouted.

The little smaller Buus fired their many Ki blasts at them creating a gigantic dust cloud. The four minu buus all laughed and pointed childishly.

However, when the dust settled they were standing perfectly fine in a greenish forcefield surrounding them.

The mini Buus all had steam leaving the holes in their body.

Lapis turned to his sister, she nodded and they looked at the four of them. Time for this to end.

(-)-(-)-

Trunks covered his eyes as the light got brighter and what came out was a newly molted Hirudegarn.

Yellow, black horns, red spot on the back, purple on the arms and legs.

His power swelled again blowing Trunks's hair in the wind.

This power was something else, if he hadn't taken the Kai's offer to power up he would have been done for. 'Good, now I can destroy you, at your best.'

Hirudegarn roared as it threw it's fist down at Trunks who caught it with both hands he then turned around while grabbing a finger attempting to rip it only for it to turn into mist.

Trunks was annoyed this opponent was so slippery and can escape through anything. He smirked, he'll do an attack he can't see coming.

Hirudegarn appeared above him and slammed his fist down. Trunks didn't catch it this time and let it smash him down.

The demon dragon slammed his fist in the ground so many times the area was collapsing under his tremendous might. He pulled his fists back and fired a yellow Ki wave from his mouth. The creature roared as if victoriously.

However, Trunks from underneath flew up with his hands on his head. "Solar Flare!"

The monster roared and took many steps back his eyes were covered, and he couldn't concentrate.

Trunks then acted quickly, he stabbed his sword into Hirudegarn gut and he dragged the blade up his body. The swordsman then flew all around the monster with the blade still dragging in. The monster had blood leaking from many different cuts.

Hirudegarn roared again in so much pain, his body then began to divide and couldn't turn into a mist from a lack of concentration.

The half Saiyan looked down at Hirudegarn. This monster showed him that life could get worse.

(-)-(-)-

Years ago, Trunks stood there in the ruins made not from the android's rampage, but Hirudegarn's rampage. Gohan was on the ground half dead from fighting the beast. Half of the monster was destroyed with the wizard Hoi, but the other half.

"Trunks" Tapion struggled sitting, trying to keep his half of the monster inside. "Do it"

Trunks held the sword up, he didn't want to do it. But he remembered the androids, they were already a threat. This monster, half of it was stronger than the androids combined if he didn't do it, all of earth would be done for.

With tears in his eyes he brought his sword up and tried to make it quick. He thrusted into his heart.

"T-thank you" The hero smiled and passed on with the monster.

(-)-(-)-

Trunks brought his sword up, ran his Ki through it and did one more mighty swing to cut the monster in half.

"Die!" Trunks yelled as he did his movements. "Burning Attack!"

The yellow blast detonated destroying every single body part of the monster. It was over no more Hirudegarn. Trunks sighed and smiled. He looked at his reflection in the Brave Sword. "I'm sorry I wasn't this strong before Tapion." It felt somewhat like a cleansing doing this, he killed the monster that took a friend of his.

He shook his head realizing he needed to focus. Then flew off to see if anyone else needed his help.

(-)-(-)-

Rilldo rushed 16 and threw multiple punches and kicks at the Android. His new body made him even stronger and faster than ever. The Mutant grabbed his leg and flew downward and tossed him on the ground.

The Android created a large canyon from the force. Half of his face was missing; his right arm and his left leg was nothing but wires. They were able to regenerate quickly enough, and he looked up at the Machine Mutant.

Rilldo laughed loudly. "Do you see now? No one can match the mind of Dr Myuu!"

16 stood up and flew upward towards his opponent. He threw multiple punches and kicks. Rilldo's body was able to liquify as the punches missed.

The Machine mutant became solid and bashed his knee against the android's gut. He then grabbed his head and bashed his head multiple times. He flew down swinging him around and crashing him against the ground.

The Android hit the ground again in scratches but they regenerated. And so Rilldo rushed downward with a knee in the machine's abdomen. He rose one arm and fired Ki into his face destroying the head.

Rilldo stood up cackling and looked down at the machine he was still regenerating. He rose both arms readying an energy ball that will destroy this Android. "I will take your scraps and you will become a part of the ultimate Machine Mutant!" At last he will achieve Dr Myuu's dream and remake the universe!

But then something happened. He felt his body slow down at least slightly. He turned his head to see that woman from before with her hands aimed at him.

Zangya was breathing hard with her Phsyco Thread in effect. It barely had an effect on this monster of a machine but at least she distracted him. Although she had hoped the result would have resulted in his death.

Rilldo looked bored and aimed his energy forward. "Pathetic org-"

16 had enough time to repair and grabbed his waist. He lifted him up forcing the energy upward. He then tossed him into a wall of the crater. He turned to Zangya and smiled. "Thank you."

"Just destroy that shiny idiot already."

The Android nodded and turned his head to see him float out of the crater.

Rilldo's sensors made him panic. The energy from this Android was actually above him now, but he calmed himself he had a way of leveling the playing field. He opened his mouth and green energy was fired from his mouth.

16 can see dangerous properties from that energy, he turned around grabbed Zangya and jumped.

"Put me down you-" She looked down to see a large sheet of metal being made in the ground. What would it do to her. She looked at the giant android. "Thank you." 16 merely nodded and landed on top of a mountain.

"Fly back to the lookout, I have gotten enough power to destroy him." 16 said to her and eyed Rilldo.

Zangya was surprised hearing that, normally she wouldn't be allowed to leave without anyone's supervision. "Oh, what no babysitter?" She patronized.

The Android glanced her way. "I believe you have earned some trust. Rilldo is too dangerous you could get destroyed if you're not careful." 16 turned to smile. "And I think your cool."

Zangya said nothing, it felt strange hearing him talk like that. But it sounded sincere, looks like she just got one more reason for Lazuli not to kill her.

"Go to the lookout, Dende can heal you."

The Hera sees Rilldo opening his mouth, light formed in it. She would be no help now and nodded and flew away.

Rilldo spat his Metal Breath down at 16.

The Android flew under and bashed his head against the Machine Mutant, he then smashed his fists on his head sending him spiraling downward towards the newly made metal.

The Machine Mutant smiled as he sunk into the metal.

16's eyes widened, he was not expecting this.

"Try to find me Android!"

(-)-(-)-

At the same time while Trunks was fighting Hirudegarn and 16 fighting Rilldo.

Lapis flew forward at Kid Buu.

The evil creature was about to throw a punch.

The Cyborg ducked, and Lazuli swung a kick against Buu's face.

Lapis followed with two punches to his gut.

Lazuli swept kicks him and grabs the short monster's legs. And swung the child like creature and tossed him up and her brother flew up after him.

Kid Buu caught himself midair only for Lapis to knee him in the back. And he rose his fists and bashed them against the creature's belly. And he was sent downward.

Before Kid Buu hit the ground, Lazuli swung a kick at Buu's head and sent him to crash into a mountain it turned to rubble and crashed on him.

The twins watched carefully, this monster was not done yet.

Then without warning a pink blob came over Lapis. The Android saw the slime surrounding him. "What the-!" The slime surrounded him and made some sort of ball.

Horrified Lazuli goes to her brother's aid and tries to tear the slime off but it does nothing and takes the slime covered Cyborg away. And shrunk into a ball.

Kid Buu came out of the ground laughing maniacally as the slime swallowed him and struggled to combine with him.

"No! Give him back!" Lazuli realized what the monster was doing, this was how he absorbed others and he's about to absorb her brother now she's unsure of what to do. The Cyborg should destroy it, but Lapis is in there if she does her brother will as well. She can't bring herself to do it.

The blob took shape and Lapis was nowhere to be seen.

It was Buu and he looked…... exactly the same?

"What?" Lazuli wasn't expecting this. The Supreme Kai mentioned that Buu would go through transformations after the absorption, but he looked no different than when they started.

Kid Buu gave questioning sounds and looked at his hands. Something was wrong, he didn't feel a thing, no increase in power, no fun transformation! How why?!

Then he felt something his gut, he clung to it as he felt the worst stomach ache over. He screamed in pain.

The Cyborg found this unexpected, what was going on? Why does he seem to be in so much pain?

Then a powerful but small Photon Flash was coming out of Kid Buu's belly. Something small flew right out.

Then out of nowhere Lapis surrounded in his green energy barrier seemed to pop into existence in front of Lazuli. The barrier faded, and he took a knee. "Oh man, that was disgusting!" He shook remembering inside that creature.

"Lapis!" She went and put her hands on his shoulders. "How did you do that?"

"I don't know I just got a barrier ready after that I was inside that disgusting creature." He looked over to Kid Buu and sees it regenerate and look angrily at him. "I never thought being absorbed would be so disgusting."

Kid Buu roared it's smoke escaped it's holes.

Buu was on the ground covered in many bruises. No! No! He can't be bested! Not here not in his playground!

Lapis and Lazuli stood side by side and aimed their hands at him.

Lazuli quickly turned and fired an energy blast at a piece of Buu floating behind Lapis.

Buu screamed. That was his only chance.

"So long Buu" Lapis said as he and her sister fired their Photon Blitz.

Buu was gone again, taken out by the same people that destroyed him in his ball.

A huge crater was left.

They couldn't feel a strand of his energy now. It was indeed done they returned Buu's soul to Otherworld.

"Let's go check on the others."

Lapis nodded, and the duo started flying.

(-)-(-)-

Rilldo laughed all around the metal land scape he created. "What's the matter Android? Is this too much for you?!"

16 looked all around the shiny land scape many forms and faces of Rilldo popped up firing powerful energy blasts. He deflected or dodged them as best he could, yet he was damaged from them all. But his repair system kept him in check.

"I can't wait to make your circuits my own!" Rilldo laughed loudly. "Just imagine with us together we'll become the ultimate fighting machine, nothing will stand in our way!" He laughed loudly knowing he had the advantage.

The android was fully repaired. He knew he was at a disadvantage. But he had one more trick to show, one he was asked to test out sometime.

"Not going to happen."

16 turned to see Trunks in his Ultimate Form floating a few feet away.

Lapis and Lazuli arrived as well. The twins looked all around.

"Geez it's like a freaky house of mirrors." Lapis noted all the faces surrounding them.

"An ugly house of mirrors." She added.

Rilldo laughed loudly. "Oh, you think you can stop me? Just wait until I turn this planet into metal!"

"Not if we have to say anything about it." Trunks was about to finish the job when 16 rose an arm.

"16?"

"Allow me, I can finish this."

Trunks looked at the twins, from the expressions on their face they would like to see what he can do. "Alright 16." Trunks flew by Lapis and Lazuli, they wondered what could 16 answer to this be?

"Now I know your malfunctioning what you could possibly have against this!" Multiple bodies of Rilldo popped out and aimed their hands at the Android. They powered up their energy balls.

16 didn't say anything just descended a bit and spread his arms apart. "Clockwork Acceleration, Max output."

"Isn't this bad?" Lapis asked. "Won't he blow himself up doing this?"

Trunks looked to Lapis. "My mom upgraded him with kachin metal, maybe she added something else."

Trunks and the twins prepared themselves ready to intervene in case this doesn't work. But they had faith in Bulma's work she's done nothing but endless upgrades for the android.

Rilldo's sensors went haywire. "W-what! His power it's getting off the scale!" The clone Rilldo's all opened their mouths and fired Metal Breath.

16 opened his eyes. "Hellscape" An enormous energy escaped his body shielding him from the Metal Breath.

"Ahhhhh!" Rilldo screamed as the metal all around him was swallowed. He felt pain everywhere in the metal covered mountains, and plain.

Trunks and the twins covered their eyes. Lapis created a shield to surround the three, Trunks could barely see. This was a gigantic explosive wave but it was concentrated and stopped at the end of the metal landscape.

When the explosion cleared 16 the landscape was empty, just a gigantic crater that stretched for miles. 16 floated in the middle looking all around him. Disappointed in himself for not being able to stop Rilldo without damaging the forest.

Trunks flew next to 16. "What was that I didn't know you can do this much."

16 turned to Trunks with a smile. "You did not ask. I accelerated my power core's clockwork at its max. Something I never done in my previous body." He explained. "I released the power out of my body to overwhelm Rilldo's body."

"Because it would have been destroyed right?" Lazuli asked, he nodded. "Are you alright it didn't damage your body at all?"

16 smiled. "I released the power and in turn protected my body from harm."

They were glad and smiled at him.

Lapis looked all around the desolate landscape. "You know 16, when Bulma makes the cyborg body for you it's going to be a shame that you'll lose all this power." He noted.

"Don't underestimate my mom." Trunks smiled. "I bet she can make a power core that'll match this power." He was amazed at how powerful the new Z-fighters become. "All that's left is Towa."

"I wouldn't say that!"

They turned around to see Rilldo floating, he was missing an arm and a leg. Part of his face was gone, and electricity was all over his body. They were surprised that he survived all that at all.

16 floated forward. "Good bye."

Rilldo growled.

"Well, well"

The Z-fighters turned their heads to see Towa floating on her staff.

"I see you took care of my monsters." Towa smiled.

"What are you doing here?" Rilldo demanded, did she follow his request?

Trunks was suspicious. What WAS she doing here? She had to know she was in a dangerous spot. Here out in the open.

Towa waved her staff and Rilldo glowed.

"Gahh!" The dark aura surrounded Rilldo and his body began to regenerate.

"Go on Rilldo, show them your power."

Rilldo roared and charged at 16 and they traded punches and kicks. Though 16 lost the power he gained his power core he was still a bit above Rilldo's recovered power.

Towa smirked as not seeming to care that Rilldo was being overpowered. But then Trunks appeared at her side. She looked up at the Saiyan with a terrified expression.

"You were a fool to reveal yourself." Trunks aimed his hand at her face.

Towa only smiled in return. "I suppose your right sssssaiyan." She spat the word like venom.

Trunks felt disturbed when she said it liked that and fired his energy.

Towa was swallowed in the yellow energy with a vicious looking smile and then it changed into a horrified expression as she was incinerated.

Rilldo's power faded as he stopped mid punch. He looked as though he didn't know what was going on.

16 aimed his blasters. "Hell's Flash!" He fired his attack and Rilldo was destroyed.

"That it?" Lapis asked, thinking it was anti-climactic.

"Your right." Trunks said. "It didn't make sense why would she show up in the middle of a battle? She could have used her power at a distance." Hirudegarn and Buu were powered up and she was nowhere to be seen so why reveal herself?"

For a moment her voice changed to something raspier. "Let's go check with Elder Kai. He can tell us if Towa's soul crossed."

The four of them flew for the lookout knowing they won this day.

On the ground a grey puddle was on the ground, it started to take shape into what looked like a face. It worked, now the Saiyan has a false sense of security. A smile was formed and a glare with eyes like sunglasses.

(-)-(-)-

"Mhmhm, alright, Baby" She waved her staff and opened a portal. "Let me take you to earth."

Baby cackled and pounced on the demon.

"Wh-what ar" Her staff glowed she'll gain control of this being and, but it wasn't working. The creature had entered her body once the struggling stopped a smirk decorated 'her' features.

"I see" Baby sees every memory the Towa has. "Well then let me inact my plan."

'Towa' placed her staff down, it glowed and she vanished with Baby inside her.

(-)-(-)-

Baby thought to how close the Saiyan was. He could barely see it but the face, it matched King Vegeta's, he was glad that if any miserable monkey survived it'd be the royal monkey family.

The parasite smiled, how beautiful it will be to have the grandson of King Vegeta to have one day of peace. Only for it to shatter. "Hehehehe, just you wait Saiyan!" He turned back into a puddle and slid away.


I hate to leave you guys on a cliffhanger but I promise I'll make it worth it. All I will say it's not going to be a copy and paste of GT Baby arc, it'll be a bit more original. Quite a bit.

This chapter was pretty much just to show off how far our heroes have come and to feel like the classic DBZ episodes with big fights. The real arc will start in the next couple chapters and I think you guys have stuck by me will like it.

I updated the Power scale a bit.

Power Scale:

Trunks SSJ 2 Greater than Fat Buu

Android 16 Power Core Acceleration = Ultimate Gohan( Max)

Android 16's Hellscape greater than Ultimate Gohan

Rilldo Greater than Super Buu

Metal Rilldo = Ultimate Gohan

Trunks needed to be stronger for his Mystic Form to be as strong as Buutenks.
