NOTE: Welcome back! Yes, I changed the title again (Last time I'll do it. I promise). I felt like this was more fitting since Makima sees Goku (and their kids) as her light in the world. I'm glad the Vegeta in the wrong hell thing surprised you guys. He's not really there as a punishment per say. Well...depends on how you define punishment. You'll find out her reasons for yanking his soul before Yemma could've stopped her.

By the way, I want to give Death a name (Like how Control, Famine, and War all have one). Feel free to suggest some.

They couldn't sense Gohan because he was very close to Death and Buu's KI was simply that large that sensing him would've been impossible. Had Kibito healed Gohan and Asa on Earth, then everyone likely would've felt them. Everyone is simply too focused on Buu to properly think at the moment. Gohan's KI is just gone, unsensible, thus to them he's still dead. They have no idea what has happened to his soul.

Enjoy and Review!

Chapter 15: Papa is Cool!

"Guess what?! My Daddy bought me a new dress!" An elementary school girl exclaimed to her friends. It was clear by looking at her clothing that the girl came from a wealthy background. Her current dress looked custom made with glittery detail and hot pink colors. The group of girls all squealed loudly, gaining some looks from the other kids in the cafeteria.

Nayuta rolled her eyes, scoffing at their girlish behavior. She turned back to her stack of lunch boxes that her mother had prepared for her and continued eating. Unfortunately, her behavior didn't go unnoticed, said group of girls turned their attention to the hybrid.

"Something you want to say, Son?" The rich girl sneered.

"Yeah, you four need to get a room if you're to be that loud!" Nayuta said with a glare. "Some of us are trying to eat in peace!" Her bark only increased the tension between them, with the rich posse marching over to Nayuta's table.

"What? Jealous that the four of us are having fun while your friendless butt sits alone?" Rich brat motions at the empty table. It wasn't uncommon to see Nayuta sitting by herself, especially since the hybrid made it an effort to avoid talking with people. The only other person she'd be seen eating with would be Goten. "Thinking about it now, I don't see your freak of a brother. Maybe he got stuck in the bathroom again?" She and her friends started laughing.

Nayuta's fist clenched around her chopsticks, almost snapping the reinforced utensils in half. "That was one time and don't call him a freak!" She warned dangerously. To be honest, she didn't know what her brother was doing at the moment. He ran off after seeing a butterfly outside the window and was probably chasing it around the playground. Nayuta knew she would have to hunt him down later before it was time for class again.

She also has friends!

…

Okay, it's just Trunks but he counts!

"Oh~! The freak is getting mad!" One of the background girls giggled.

"She's probably going to use her freaky appetite to eat us!" Another mocked.

"What? Don't feel fat enough after eating all that food? You need to eat us normal people too?" The third background brat said.

Nayuta didn't fall for their taunts. She turned away from the wannabe bullies and tried to finish her lunch. The faster she finishes eating, the quicker she can leave to find Goten.

"Maybe she's just upset that she doesn't have a Daddy."

SNAP

The chopsticks fell onto the table, broken in pieces. Nayuta's dark red spirals were aimed right at the rich brat, staring deep into her soul. "What?"

A deathly chill fell down the click's spines. Something in the back of their minds was warning them that it would be best to back off. However, the spoiled rich girl clearly didn't get the memo. "Is your hearing going out too? I said that you don't have a loving and amazing Daddy like me! He buys me gifts, treats me like a princess, and lets me do whatever I want! I heard that you only have your Mom, and that she makes you live out in the country of all places! What a shame!" As she laughed, the spoiled princess clearly missed Nayuta standing right in front of her. The brat's friends were already scampering away out of pure fear.

"Hey, dumbass."

She stopped laughing. "What did you ju-" The spoiled brat froze as she stared the hybrid in the eyes, finding herself getting lost in a trance. Nayuta, with a surprising amount of self-control, raised her finger and thumb.

"Never make fun of my family again."

FLICK!

The spoiled brat went flying across the cafeteria, sliding across tables, and ruining her expensive dress with tons and tons of spilled food. Everyone in the cafeteria was deathly silent as they tried to understand what had just occurred. The spoiled princess managed to climb to her feet, wobbling and using the table for support. One good look at her ruined appearance and the pain thumbing through her forehead caused her to cry loudly like a baby. It didn't take long for adults to swarm the cafeteria or for all of the kids to sell out Nayuta as the culprit of the 'fight'.

…

"A week suspension? Be thankful that was all they wanted to do." Makima stared down at her daughter with clear disappointment. The two were sitting in their living room to discuss the prior events. Makima had already ordered her boys to stay upstairs while she handled her daughter. "You lost control."

"I didn't hurt her too badly."

"Did I tell you to talk?" Nayuta had enough sense to know that wasn't a question that needed a response. She hung her head low instead, refusing to meet her mother's eyes.

"It does not matter if you didn't hurt her much. The matter is that you allowed petty little words to get to you. How many times have I reminded you and Goten that you need to keep yourselves under control? For you people like us, the humans and world around us may as well be cardboard. One false move and you could've killed that girl, and I would've had to clean it up."

"Would it have been that bad if she died?"

"Yes. It would have." Makima rolled her eyes at Nayuta's shock. "I'm your Mother, I'll always know what's going through your head."

Nayuta clenched her fists and stood up. "S-she insulted you! She insulted us and the way we live! They were calling Goten and I 'freaks' just because we're different!"

"And?" Makima raised a brow.

"A-and…she made fun of me for not having a Daddy…" Nayuta looked down at her feet. Feeling embarrassed by the way she allowed herself to be so heavily hurt by something like that. She didn't need a dad in her life. She had her mom, Gohan, Piccolo, and her aunts! They were all she needed!

"Okay." Makima shrugged.

The hybrid stared at her with disbelief. "Y-you don't care?!"

"Why would I care about the words of an insignificant spoiled brat that has had everything handed to her? It's true that we don't have a lot, even with my funds a lot of them have to go towards feeding you three and your aunt Fami." Makima scowled briefly as she thought about her gluttonous sister, before looking back at her daughter. "The funds go towards your schooling, our clothes, feeding our dogs, and many other things. We're not rich like the Briefs and we're probably never going to be."

"Then what? What do we have?" Nayuta asked.

"A home." Makima stood up from the couch. "And in regard to your Father…just know that even if he isn't here with us physically. He loves us more than anything." She turned away from her daughter to let her stew on those words.

Nayuta stared at her mother's back with conflicted feelings. She didn't understand everything, which annoyed her since she takes pride in her smarts. What did her mother mean by 'a home' or about how her father loves her. She doubts that a dead guy even knows who she is. None of it made sense.

"Oh, Nayuta?"

"Y-yes, Momma?"

"You're grounded for the entire week that you're suspended."

"Ugh…" Nayuta slumped forward. Scratch whatever the hell her other issues were messing with her head. Being grounded was way more annoying.

Within the tranquil realm of the Supreme Kais, the Godly beings and their companions arrived on the soft green grass. Shin motioned for Kibito to gently place Asa next to Gohan. "Now fill them both with energy, Kibito."

"Yes, sir." As reluctant as he was, Kibito did as told and healed both hybrids back to 100% condition. The effect was instant, both teens snapping awake with startled gasps and they leaned upwards to catch their breaths. Asa's eyes snapped to her left to see the wonderful boy she believed to have perished a terrible death sitting right next to her.

"GOHAN!" Asa threw her single arm around his shoulder, practically jumping onto him in the process. "YOU'RE ALIVE! Y-YOU'RE-" Tears fell like waterfalls down her cheeks as she cried into his shoulder.

"A-Asa…?! What are you…" Gohan was a bit startled by her actions but hugged his friend back anyway to comfort her. The hybrid then noticed that she was missing her right arm. "Y-your arm?! What happened to your arm?!"

Asa broke the hug and turned to her missing limb. The memories of the near-death were now coming back to her. She gripped the stump with her only arm left. "I-it was Majin Buu. He tried turning us into candy, so I cut off my arm before he could finish us off.

"Majin…Buu…" Gohan muttered carefully. The memories of his failure were pulsating within his head. A sense of failure and grief filled him now that he was more than able to think about his defeat at the hands of that monster. Even with his Devil half taking control, he was still no match for Buu's overwhelming power. Now, because of him, everyone on Earth was in danger of being killed.

He let everyone down…

SLAP!

"OW!" Gohan winced and held his stinging cheek. He glared at Asa, who had been the one to slap him in the face. "What was that for?!"

"For looking like a depressed loser! This isn't the time to be wallowing in self-pity!" Asa yelled.

"She is right, Gohan." Shin stepped forward with Kibito at his side.

"S-Supreme Kai? And Kibito?! I thought you were dead!" Gohan exclaimed. Asa was just as shocked as her friend. "W-wait, but if you're here does that mean we're dead?"

"No, luckily, we are all alive. I do not know how, but Kibito was brought back to life." Shin explains.

"Probably the Dragon Balls, huh?" Gohan figured that was the only explanation.

"Welcome to our realm, Gohan, Asa, and War too." Shin said.

"Right, Yoru!" Asa perks up and calls to her other half. "Yoru, Gohan's alive-huh?" The clumsy teen blinked when she couldn't hear the War Devil inside of her head. She could feel Yoru's presence, but the usually prideful Devil wasn't communicating in the slightest. It was as if she was hiding away.

"Is everything alright, Asa?" Gohan asked, concerned.

"Y-yeah! Everything is perfectly fine!" Asa waved her hand to quell his worries. She'll just have to figure it out later. "I think we have more important things to discuss, right?"

"She is correct." Kibito speaks up. "I would like to know why two mortals and a dark creature were allowed inside of the realm of the Gods."

"Gohan." Shin got the boy's attention. "I want you to kill Buu with the Z-Sword. I am certain that with your strength you should be able to wield it."

"A sword? Wouldn't it be better for Asa and Auntie Yoru to use it?" Gohan points at his classmate.

"In a sense, yes, but I fear that they wouldn't be strong enough to wield it to its full capacity. I do have training planned to strengthen their powers far beyond their current limits." Shin explained.

"Strengthen our powers…?" Asa muttered with a head tilt.

"Supreme Kai, sir, you can't possibly expect a mere mortal to be able to wield the Z-Sword!" Kibito exclaimed. "Do you remember just the number of Gods that have tried to use that weapon and failed?! Do you truly believe that a mere mortal will be capable of using it?!"

Asa glared at the apprentice with a hand to her hip. "And just where do you get off underestimating us mortals, huh?! Last time I checked you were killed by Dabura instantly, when Gohan was fighting him to an even standstill! Heck, even the Supreme Kai was left shocked by us during our fights with Babadi's minions! So, just back off!" Asa's rant caused Kibito to flinch back.

"A-Asa…you don't have to-"

"I DO have to, Gohan! It's stupid, bigoted, and racist to look down on someone because of their race or because they're a mortal!" She whipped her head back to Kibito and shoved her finger into his chest. "Your GOD wants our help; thus you're going to shut up and let us help! Got it?!"

"Y-yes…" Kibito muttered, clearly afraid of the smaller mortal's anger.

Gohan let out a small chuckle. "I-I think Auntie is rubbing off on you."

Asa blushed a bit and turned her head with a pout. "I-I just hate that type of thinking is all! This has nothing to do with Yoru!"

Kibito stalked back over to his lord, who was giving him a small smirk. "So, Kibito, have you learned your lesson?"

"L-let's just carry on, my lord…"

"Certainly." Shin started levitating into the air. "Come, you two! We must make our way towards the Z-Sword!" The Lord of Lords took off towards the long rocky pillar that stood in the middle of a lake. Kibito, Gohan, and Asa quickly followed after him.

The apprentice looked back at the teens and their ruined clothing. He stuck out his finger and shot two beams at them, changing their outfits into similar outfits that he and Shin were wearing. "There…more appropriate for beings undergoing training from the Supreme Kai."

Shin looked back and laughed. "I think the new clothing looks good on you two."

"R-really?" Gohan looked at his attire, then at Asa, who clearly didn't like her new clothing. "It makes us look like some matching couple."

Asa stuck out her hand. "I'm flattered, Gohan, but I'm not interested in you like that." She seemingly rejected what she thought to be a dating proposal. "Besides, I'm pretty sure you and Videl are more into each other anyway."

"Oh, I wasn't insinuating anything like that! Besides, I know you're more interested in Denji anyway." Gohan shrugged. He was not prepared for the loud screech that escaped Asa's throat in response to his claim.

"HUUUH?!" Her face was as bright as a tomato. "Who would be interested in that s-stupid pervert?! Just because he has that stupid goofy grin of his, constantly notices whenever I make little changes in my hair, also likes cats like I do, and makes those stupid corny jokes that make me laugh sometimes doesn't mean that I like him!"

Gohan blinked at her owlishly. "But don't you guys walk home sometimes?"

Asa's brain went haywire as she remembered when she'd keep close to Denji to help Videl find out his secrets. The worst part about it was that even after Videl called off the investigation, the War hybrid didn't stop walking home with Denji. In fact, she found herself enjoying his presence since he'd always listen to her ramble about anything that pissed her off or brought her joy. "T-THAT MEANS NOTHING! NOTHING!" Asa denied it heavily.

"O-okay?" Gohan shrugged, not understanding what was going through her head. As smart as Gohan was, he still had some of the cluelessness about social understandings like his father.

"There it is!" Shin's shout took their attention away. The four landed on top of the rocky pillar, where a single sword could be seen embedded into it. "Try to pull it out, Gohan. Nobody in recorded history has been able to do it."

"Nobody, huh?" Gohan inspected the embedded weapon.

Asa gasped, giggling and snorting like a pig. "Woah! It's just like Excalibur, the sword of King Arthur! Only someone truly worthy will be able to unearth the legendary weapon and achieve their greatest destiny!"

…

…

…

She noticed the way they were all staring at her. "Uh…hehe… I got a little excited there, huh?"

"Nerd…"

Asa's head whipped to the side to glare at the only person who would've called her that. However, the one responsible disappeared before she could do anything.

"Okay, let's get started!" Goku exclaimed with a clap of his hands. "The first thing I want you three to do is turn Super Saiyan!"

"Right! HAAH!" The three brats listened to his order and transformed into Super Saiyans.

Goku nodded his head. "Okay, now raise your power to its maximum."

Trunks side-eyed the twins. "Heh, how about we freak him out? What do you guys say?"

"I'm in." Nayuta nodded.

"Let's do it." Goten agreed as well.

"HYAAAAAAAA!" The children's power skyrocketed to their maximum limit. Piccolo grunted slightly from the force created, while the married couple stood unfazed and unimpressed.

"Is that it?" Goku raised a brow, clearly having been expecting more.

Not expecting such a lackluster response, the kids nervously looked at each other. "U-uh…yeah." Nayuta nodded her head. She didn't know why, but the slight disappointed look in his eyes made her shrink a bit.

"Okay, Trunks' KI is a bit higher than Nayuta and Goten's. Your KI has to be exactly the same for fusion to work. Trunks lower yours a bit." Goku instructed.

"Screw that!" Nayuta scoffed. "It's insulting that he has to 'lower' himself to our level! Do you think we can't rise up and match him?!"

"That's not it-"

"I bet you're just super disappointed that your kids are so weak, huh?!" She growled at him. "I bet you're thinking the same thing about Gohan, because he died!" Her words caused the boys to gasp, and Piccolo looked close to marching over to her.

"Nayuta." The female hybrid froze as her mother's warning struck her. One good look at Makima told her that the next words out of her mouth better be an apology. She powered down from Super Saiyan and stormed off with a huff.

"Nayuta!" Piccolo called after her. "Why that little…"

"It's fine." Goku shrugged. "I'll go talk with her."

"Darling?" Makima looked at him carefully. She understood her husband's attentions, but her daughter had too high of a track record of losing her cool easily, much more than Gohan did at her age.

"It'll be okay." Goku reassured her. He turned to Piccolo. "Help Goten and Trunks match their KI levels while I'm gone."

"Right." Piccolo nodded and watched Goku follow after the young girl. With a short breath, Piccolo stared down the boys. "Do you two have any problems that need to be talked out?"

"N-no, sir!" Trunks flinched back.

"A-all good, sir!" Goten nodded his head quickly.

"In that case let's get to work!"

As Piccolo continued his drill sergeant routine, Makima snuck away to follow after her husband and daughter. She should've expected something like to happen with Nayuta's bubbling emotions towards her father. Gohan's death was simply the trigger getting pulled.

"So, what happens when I pull it out?" Gohan asked as he gripped the sword's handle.

"They say a tremendous power will flow through you. Perhaps it'll be enough to surpass Buu." Kibito explained.

"Really?! Does that mean it's super sharp or something?!" Gohan gulped.

"I-is that really your big worry?" Asa sighed.

"Don't worry, you won't be able to pull it out." Kibito's doubts earned him another glare from Asa. Seems her rant earlier still hadn't fully gone through his head. The only way he was going to stop looking down on them is if Gohan manages to pull out that sword.

"Come on, Gohan! You got this!"

"Give it a tug, Gohan."

"Okay, here goes!" Gohan began pulling on the sword with everything he had, however the weapon refused to budge from its spot.

Kibito's shit-eating grin was getting on Asa's nerves. "See? Pointless."

Gohan grunted. "In that case…! HYAH!" His hair changed to bright blonde, his Super Saiyan form roaring to life.

"Going Super Saiyan won't change a thing-"

"GRAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Gohan roared loudly as he tore the legendary weapon from its spot on the rock. He ended up flying high into the air from the momentum and held the sword triumphantly above his head. "I-I got it!"

"Yes, Gohan!" Shin exclaimed.

"That's right! I knew you could do it, Gohan!" Asa cheered as well. She looked over at Kibito, who was stunned into silence. She took immense joy out of his comical expression at Gohan pulling out the weapon. "So, do you still think mortals are weak?" Kibito just turned away from her with an embarrassed growl.

The four made their way back down to solid ground. Where Gohan was struggling a bit to hold the sword up. Shin analyzed Gohan as he held the weapon in his hands. "So, how does the sword feel, Gohan?"

"W-well, it's pretty heavy! I don't see how it's s-so special…!" Gohan grunted as he tried to swing it around.

"Is it really going to help us defeat Buu?" Asa questioned.

"Tch! This is the greatest weapon in the universe!" Kibito loudly exclaimed in her ear, making the teen flinch. "Of course, it won't help if you can't even wield it properly! You must train with it until it feels like an extension of yourself!"

Gohan, who was also getting tired of Kibito opening his mouth, walked over to him. "Here, why don't you try holding it." Gohan handed the sword over to Kibito.

"Hm-GWAH!" Kibito instantly ended up dropping the sword to the ground due to its weight. He attempted to tear it apart from the dirt but the sword refused to budge from his might.

"Heh, so much for godly might, huh?" Asa's mocking didn't make the apprentice feel any better.

Kibito gave up on trying to pick the sword up. Instead, he coughed into his hand and turned back with a bright blush. "Anyway, you must be able to wield it freely!" He pointed at Gohan.

"O-okay…" Gohan leaned down to pick the sword back up.

"In any case." Shin sighed and looked at Gohan. "Practice getting used to the sword's weight for now. Once you've mastered that we can move to the next step."

"Right!" Gohan nodded.

"Asa." Shin looked at the girl. "It's time for your role in all of this."

"R-right! I'm ready to begin!" Asa straightened herself out.

"Good, because I'll be training you to master the abilities of a Supreme Kai." Shin informed her.

…

…

…

"EEEHHHHH?!" Asa and Kibito screamed simultaneously.

Gohan looked over, confused because he wasn't paying attention to their conversation.

Nayuta sat on a set of stairs within the Lookout, her knees tucked close to her chest. She hated how everyone just didn't understand anything about her. Momma didn't understand, Gohan didn't understand, Piccolo didn't, and not even her own freaking twin! She hated the way she stormed off, because it made her look weak in front of everyone, but the girl didn't want to be there anymore. Learning some stupid technique that just made her realize how weak she was compared to Trunks, reminding her of that humiliating loss back at the tournament, and that disappointed look in her papa's eyes. He realized how weak they were and didn't want anything to do with them now.

She knew it. Dads were stupid.

"Hey."

Nayuta whipped around to see Goku standing at the doorway. She made no noise and just stared at her father as he slowly approached. "Do you mind if I sit next to you?"

"Go ahead." Nayuta turned away and scooted a bit to the side. The two just sat next to each other in silence for a few moments. Until it was broken by an apology.

"I'm sorry."

"Huh?" Nayuta looked up at her father.

"I'm sorry that I couldn't save Gohan. As his Father, I should've been there for him when he needed me the most." Goku apologized.

"Yeah? Well, you weren't there, so you're a pretty bad Dad then." Nayuta scoffed.

"I guess I am."

She gritted her teeth and whirled at the full-blooded Saiyan. "What is with you?!"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Goku blinked.

"Here I am throwing insult after insult at you, blaming you for things, and yet you just take it and move on! I called you a bad Dad and yet you're just…just…not getting angry." Nayuta pointed out to him.

Goku shrugged. "I don't really have a reason to be angry at you."

"And why not?!"

"Because you're right." She blinked at his words. When she didn't say anything, Goku continued on. "I don't understand a lot of things about the world. Even now I'm still struggling to adjust to all of the changes that have happened these last seven years. When Gohan was born, I didn't really understand the details of being a Father, all I ever had was my Grandpa. So, I just acted how he would be with me. But, then a bunch of things happened, and I wasn't able to always be there for him." Nayuta kept silent, clutching the ends of her purple skirt. "In the blink of an eye that little boy who was clinging to my pants all the time was standing up on his own two feet, staring down dangers that would've had me terrified at his age."

"B-but…aren't you disappointed that he lost to Buu?" Nayuta timidly asked.

"Are you?"

"Huh?" She flinched back.

"Are you upset that he lost to Buu? That your big brother couldn't save the day like he's done plenty of times before?" Goku repeated.

"N-no! W-why would I be disappointed in him?! I know Gohan, and I know that he gave it the best he could! My big brother always tries his best!" Nayuta exclaimed. She gasped lightly when Goku ruffled her hair with warm affection.

"That's good. I'm sure Gohan would love to hear that." Goku smiled.

"What about me and Goten?" Nayuta's question confused him slightly. "Are you disappointed that we didn't meet your expectations? That we lost the tournament and stuff too?"

"Nope!" Goku grinned.

"W-why not?! We're weak, right?! That's how we must've looked!"

"Guess, what?"

"What?"

"I lost my first tournament too!"

"Really?!" Nayuta gasped loudly.

"Yup! This really strong old guy named Jackie Chun beat me in the finals! Then, I also lost my second one to Tien!" Goku laughed as he looked back on those fond memories.

"B-but didn't you feel weak?! Losing sucks!" Nayuta exclaimed.

"Yeah, losing does suck. But do you know the best part about losing?" Goku gently brings Nayuta in closer as her eyes scream to know the answer. "It means there's still room to get stronger. I took my defeats as a lesson to make sure that I would win the next time. Getting stronger and stronger to surpass your limits sounds fun, doesn't it?"

Nayuta found herself giggling, almost laughing as she stood in her father's arms. The man's smile and energy was just too infectious. "Y-yeah! That does sound like fun! I wanna get stronger, Papa! Strong enough to avenge everyone Buu killed!"

Makima, who was hidden behind a wall, smiled softly at the bonding between the two. It seems she had nothing to truly worry about, since her husband managed to connect a bond with his daughter.

Goku smiled proudly at his daughter. "Alright, then. Let's get back to training-"

"Earthlings! I just learned something fascinating!"

"Babadi?!" Nayuta cried. Goku motioned for her to stay silent as the warlock continued his monstrous tirade.

"It seems like one of my four targets lives at the Capsule Corporations located in West City! And that happens to be where we're heading now! Better show yourself now Trunks or your city will be gone!" Babadi cut the connection to the feed.

"Darling." Makima stepped out of the shadows, surprising her husband and daughter.

"Yeah, I know." Goku nodded his head, standing up to his full height.

"GOKU!" Bulma, Trunks, Goten, and Piccolo rushed towards them. "Did you hear that?! My parents will be killed by those madmen!"

"We can just-" Goku stopped himself from saying that the Dragon Balls will bring them back. He thought back to his conversation with Makima, realizing that it was a pretty insensitive thing to say to someone, regardless of how used to it they may be. "Okay, I'll go stop them."

"What?!" Everyone exclaimed.

"Is the Dragon Radar at Capsule Corp, Bulma?" Makima asked.

"Yeah! If they wipe out the city, then the radar goes with it." Bulma answered. "That thing takes some special parts to make, so I don't know how long it would take me to find them all from scratch to build a new one!"

"Which is why it'll be good to send someone over to get the radar while I distract Buu and Babadi." Goku said.

"Daddy? Are you sure? Buu is strong!" Goten argued.

"Yeah, he beat my Dad." Trunks added.

Goku nodded his head. "Yeah, I'm not trying to beat them or anything. Just stalling. So, Trunks, you head to Capsule Corp and get the radar from your grandparents, okay?"

"Right!" Trunks nodded. He turned and took off towards the edge of the Lookout towards Capsule Corp. Trunks turns Super Saiyan to increase his speed.

"Darling, be careful." Makima whispers.

"I'll be back." Goku teleports away, easily locking onto Buu's KI.

Buu and Babadi stop their flight as Goku materialized right in front of them. The Saiyan from Earth smiles at the two forces of evil with his own little grin. "Yo."

"You!" Babadi recognizes Goku. "I thought Vegeta had killed you! But I am thankful for your assistance in resurrecting Buu."

"Vegeta and I underestimated you. We never thought Buu would be this powerful." Goku's words filled the pink menace with a sense of pride.

"He was my Father's loyal pet, after all." Babadi giggled. "Are you here to tell me where those fools are hiding?"

"Forget it. Two of 'em are my kids." Goku refused Babadi's request. "I'm just here to warn you."

"Heh! Funny, I'll just let the rest of the world listen in on this ridiculousness." Babadi brought back the connection, allowing everyone else on Earth to see the three of them.

The Division 4 building of the Public Safety Commission was in utter turmoil. They weren't the only ones, as every other Safety Commission building, and government outpost were working to try and pinpoint the exact location of the newest threats. Buu's rampage across the globe escalated far higher than any Devil threat in recent history had managed to achieve. The recent announcement of Babadi's decision to head for West City was at least giving them a warning of where they'll strike next. A task force, specifically created by Son Makima, was currently being mobilized to neutralize the newest threat.

A tall, grizzled man with scraggly facial hair and a stitched scar running across his left cheek from his mouth. He has blonde hair color, possibly indicating it's dyed. He has two piercings on his left ear and one on his right ear. He wears the standard Public Safety Devil Hunter uniform, complimented by a large overcoat. This was Kishibe, a Devil Hunter that is a member of the 4th Division. He stood in front of the assembled hybrids he was assigned over with his usual stoic expression. "Alright, I'm certain you all know what you're getting into. Mrs. Makima hasn't given orders, but the higher ups are on our ass about taking care of this newest threat."

A black-haired youth with a sword keychain around his neck raised his hand.

"Don't ask questions. You know as well as I do that the chances of dying here are likely, however, your Devils. Dying is practically a trip to getting a fresh ice-cream sundae."

A young woman with an ignition choker around her neck felt a tingle in her head. She was already getting used to this uncomfortable feeling and spoke up. "Mr. Old guy!"

"Not my name-"

"The wizard is back!"

Her announcement ceased all movement around them. Everyone felt the tingle of Babadi activating the telepathic connection again. Closing their eyes, everyone within the building and the world were greeted to the sight of Son Goku standing against Babadi and Buu.

Kishibe hummed and took a swig of his alcohol. "Makima's husband is back from the dead? Let's see how this ends."

"The ones you're looking for will show themselves, I promise! But you have to wait for them! This mayhem won't do any good!" Goku requested.

"Why wait? Are you plotting something?" Babadi asked.

"Yeah, they're training to beat you."

"Beat us?! HA HA HA HA! Do you hear that, Buu?!" Babadi and his monster started laughing hysterically. Goku stood unfazed by their behavior. "Forget waiting! Tell them to show themselves now or we'll go back to killing as much as we want!"

"I figured you'd say that, so I'll have to stall you." Goku said.

"Stall?! Fool, there is no stalling! Kill him now, Buu!" Babadi ordered. However, his 'pet' didn't feel like following orders. Buu whistled to himself like a child. "BUU!"

"Okay~!" Buu shrugged and danced over to Goku.

Goku, in an odd display of intelligence, took a shot. "Do you really let him tell you what to do like that?" Buu and Babadi stopped and allowed the Saiyan's words to sink in.

"S-shut up! He is my pet, of course he'll listen to his master!" Babadi declared before flinching back at Buu's cold stare. It was clear that the pink entity didn't take kindly to being called a 'pet'. "W-why are you looking at me like that?! Do you want me to seal you away?!"

"Seal me and he kill you." Buu warned the warlock, shutting him up.

"D-dammit! He's getting too smart too quickly!" Babadi was more than aware that a smart 'pet' led to terrible outcomes. But he couldn't risk sealing Buu, or he'll lose his only advantage, he literally had nothing else to rely on after Vegeta killed the rest of his men and blew up his ship. Babadi really hated that damn Saiyan Prince.

"But I still kill him. Buu hates good guys." Buu declared, much to Babadi's relief.

"Guess I have no choice." Goku powered up to the ascended state of Super Saiyan as he prepared to face off against Buu.

"Watch, Earthlings! You'll see what happens to those who defy us!"

Everyone on the Lookout watched with bated breaths as Goku faced off against the terrible Majin. Goten looked over and saw the nervous shivering of his sister. The youngest Son reached over and tightly held her hand with his own. Goten smiled softly as he felt Nayuta calm down at his touch. The boy closed his eyes and tried to keep his own nerves intact as he watched his father, who he was still getting to know, battle against the monster that killed their brother.

"Please, don't die, Daddy."

Trunks stopped as he felt Goku's KI shoot up. "Woah…! He's just as strong as Dad!"

Goku grinned, realizing that this level of strength wouldn't be enough to hold off Buu. He was gonna have to bust out his new form if he was going to have any chance of this working, even though it'll cost him the rest of his time still on Earth. "Alright, then! I guess I'll just have to go beyond the ascended level of a Super Saiyan!"

"Beyond…the ascended?!" Piccolo gasped.

"Darling…" Makima mumbled, confused by her husband's words.

"I don't get it…beyond what?" Babadi questioned.

Goku ignored him for a moment due to Trunks' KI signature stopping. "Why did Trunks stop moving?! I don't have a lot of time here!" Realizing that the boy was likely watching the fight, Goku knew he needed to get the boy moving. "GET THE RADAR, NOW!"

"R-RIGHT!" Trunks stumbled in the air before shooting back off towards his home. When Goku wasn't smiling the rich kid had to admit that he was just as scary as his own dad.

"Who are you yelling at?!" Babadi and Buu looked around. The warlock glared at the Saiyan. "Cooking up some scheme, are you?"

Goku dropped back down to base form. "Something like that."

"Why turn back? Are you giving up?" Buu asked.

"Nah, nothing like that. I just want to teach you about Super Saiyans, so that it's easier to understand." Goku replied.

"I don't care! Just hurry!" Babadi yelled.

"Now, now, don't get impatient. You're going to love this. This is my normal state." A bright flash signified his transformation into a Super Saiyan. "This is a Super Saiyan. And this…!" A small flex and flash brought him into the 2nd level. His hair was a bit more spiked with a single long bang going down the left side of his face, and lightning coursing around him. "This is what is known as a Super Saiyan that has ascended past a Super Saiyan! Or you can just call it Super Saiyan 2!"

"Oooh!" Buu nodded his head.

"Tch! What's the difference, you barely even changed!" Babadi scowled.

Goku smirked.

Piccolo grunted. "H-has he really found a way to surpass an ascended Saiyan?!"

"He has to be bluffing…I mean-what would that make him? Double ascended?" Krillin jokes.

"No…" Makima got their attention, though their eyes were still closed to watch the fight. "Darling wouldn't bluff about this…!" She could feel it, something inside of her darling was building and was just waiting to burst.

"AND THIS…!" Goku tightened his body.

"W-What's he doing?!" Roshi cried.

"IS… TO GO… EVEN FURTHER BEYOND! HYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Everyone gasped as they felt Goku's power skyrocket to levels they've never felt before. The Earth itself responded to the Saiyan's power, shaking in pure anticipation of its hero's magnificent level of power. The sky morphed, twisting and turning in Goku's direction as if being drawn into his power.

King Kai, who had been watching from Otherworld, cried out to his student. "You have to stop, Goku! If you do this now it's going to drain away all of the time you have left on Earth! And you need every second as it is!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

"I-It's unreal! How is he generating that much power?!" Piccolo cried.

"Darling…!" Makima's breath hitched, her face growing hot as she felt her darling's power encompassing the entire planet. She clasped her hands together and softly moaned to herself as she stared lovingly at his transformation.

Fami looked up at the sky and gave a small smile. Her brother-in-law always managed to surprise you when you least expect it.

Trunks stopped again. "W-what's going on?! Goten and Nayuta's Dad is putting out even more power than before!" Then he realized that he had stopped again. "I-I should go! I don't want to get yelled at again!" Trunks continued his mission.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Earthquakes continued around the planet. Every single human watched in utter awestruck panic and anticipation at this mysterious warrior's power. Their buildings were shattering, the tidal waves threatened to overcome cities, winds transformed into tornados, and even technology was short-circuiting!

"T-this guy…this is Gohan's Dad…?!" Denji muttered, utterly blown away.

"Mrs. Makima's husband is unreal…" Aki stumbled on his feet.

"W-warm…it feels warm…" Power, unlike when she felt Vegeta's energy, relaxed as her senses took in Goku's power. It was like a warm blanket being wrapped around them all, swearing to keep them safe.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"T-this is insane!" Tien Shinhan exclaimed. Chiaotzu was right by his side through all of this. "It feels like the entire world is breaking apart! If Goku doesn't stop this, the whole world is going to be destroyed!"

Hercule Satan, who was training in a hidden bunker, stumbled as the earthquakes reached his position. "W-woah! WAAAAAH!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"Stop it! STOP IT NOW, GOKU!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

A white flash almost blinded Babadi and Buu as Goku finished his transformation. The two held strong through the winds and vibrations, being right at the epicenter of it all. When everything finally calmed down, Babadi opened his eyes to look at their enemy. His mouth and eyes were wide open with disbelief.

Goku's appearance changed pretty drastically compared to the previous two forms. His hair went from the rigid straight to smooth and flowing, extending down past his buttocks in length. His eyebrows vanished completely, giving his face a more rigid and stone-like appearance. Lightning surrounded this form in spades, threatening to shock anything that gets close. "Sorry this took so long. I haven't had much time to practice with this one. This is Super Saiyan 3!"

Nayuta and Goten were shaking, unable to control themselves as they felt their father's massive energy vibrating through the air. "Papa is…"

"Daddy is…"

"...SO COOL!" They declared with bright stars in their eyes.

Gohan stopped his training, feeling his father's power even this far out in the galaxy. "Dad…?! This power is…!"

"Yes, that is Son Goku!" Shin exclaimed.

"Holy shit…! Just how strong is your freaking, Dad!" Asa yelled, shocked.

Kibito was left in awe by these mortals yet again. "T-to think that a mere mortal's power could be felt all the way here!"

Deep within Asa's mind, Yoru flinched as she felt her brother-in-law's power. Her ring-like pupils looked up towards the direction Earth was in. "Goku…"

"Dad?! Just what is going on back on Earth?!" Gohan exclaimed.

Deep within the confines of Hell, Vegeta stared at the crystal ball that showed Goku's battle against Majin Buu. The prince's fists were growing so tight that blood would've leaked through his gloves if he were capable of bleeding. "Kakarot…you…"

Death leaned over, smiling at her brother-in-law's new form. "Super Saiyan 3, huh? Pretty cool, right Prince?"

SHATTER!

Vegeta crushed the ball between his fingers, tossing the pieces away towards the lower pits of hell.

"Prince-"

"FUCK OFF!" Vegeta's aura exploded to life and he took off to who-knows-where. The oldest of the Horsemen watched him fly off with a bored expression. There wasn't a way for him to leave unless she allowed him to do so. It was obvious he was going to run off somewhere to blow off steam, so she'll go find him when she needs him. Can't have him causing too big of a mess down here, now can she?

"Good luck, brother-in-law. You're going to need it." Death chuckled and leaned back on her throne.

Chapter End

NOTE: IT'S HERE! SUPER SAIYAN 3! Honestly, it's not my favorite SSJ form but this transformation sequence was cool as hell, so yeah! Vegeta isn't happy though, oh well. Sucks to be him, I guess.

Nayuta and Goku had their heart-to-heart that I've been waiting to get to. Looks like she's turning around to the idea of having a dad, which is nice. Goten was already more open to Goku but was just upset that Goku wasn't there to save Gohan or Yoru. That's it.

Asa is not going to become a Supreme Kai. She's taking a similar route as Future Trunks in the Goku Black saga in the manga. Read the DBS manga if you haven't. I'll be taking from it a lot when I eventually get to DBS.

People have been asking a lot about the other hybrids and stuff. Here they are, they'll be fighting Buu later. You can all guess how that is going to end.

Makima is horny. When is she NOT horny about her husband?

Have a great day!
