Intermission: Saiyan's mistakes and Kai's ideas. // Story: A Majin's Journey. // by Tom2rules //------------------------------// “Ponies.” “Yep.” “He is on a world…completely inhabited…by ponies.” “Yes Vegeta…we can see that.” “Why the hell is he on a planet full of Ponies?! Is that pest doing this just to insult us?!” That was basically the reaction everyone had when the four had learned of Buu’s whereabouts. After Earth’s destruction, Kabito Kai teleported Goku, Vegeta, Mr. Satan (And his dog, Bee), and Dende to the Kai’s planet in the nick of time. While the later two basically passed out due to all the stress (having your planet destroyed can do that), the other three instantly were greeted by the presence of Old Kai, a much older relative to Kabito Kai. But as the four approached the kai’s magic viewing orb, they were shocked to see where Buu had currently ended up. “With how long he is taking I might as well head there and drag that annoying pile of goo here right now!” “NO!” The old Kai shouted at the saiyan prince, “No! You will do no such thing, neither of you will!” “If Buu even senses a fraction of either of your power, then he will get excited.” The elder Kai explained, “And do you know what he will do if he gets excited?” Goku honestly looked confused, “Um…no.” “He will destroy the planet! He will kill any and everything on that world before he comes here and it’ll be on both of your heads!” But then a thought occurred to the old kai, “Heck, it is already on your heads!” “What?!” The two saiyans screamed at the kai. It was at this time that the Kai stared at the orange wearing saiyan. “Goku! You could have ended this a few hours ago!” The Kai screamed at the ascended saiyan, who looked completely dumbfounded at the remark. “W-What? What are you talking about old Kai? I coul-“Goku tried to explain his stance at the time, but the Kai wouldn’t allow any of it. “Don’t give me that! I saw you ‘Super Saiyan 3’ transformation!” The Kai shouted, earning a nervous response from Goku. The Super Saiyan 3 transformation, the most recsent and most powerful of all the transformations a saiyan could achieve. While it was a painful experience to transform, this form did grant Goku unbelievable power. If Goku had used this power against Vegeta during their bout on earth, he could have easily defeated the saiyan and rushed to Buu’s location. But at the time Vegeta believed that he had finally caught up to his rival’s power, so Goku didn’t want to damage the saiyan’s pride any more then he already had. “Ah! Quite old man, don’t let Vegeta hear tha-“ “Save it Kakarrot, I already know.” Goku stared at his rival/friend, “Seriously? You do?” Vegeta sighed, “Kakarrot, I went to Otherworld, I’m aware of nearly everything that happened after I died…and frankly, I agree with the Kai.” “W-Wha-at?” “See!? Even the arrogant douche over here agrees with me!” The old Kai shouted in success, although he did earn a glare from the saiyan prince, “You could have easily destroyed that fat version of Buu all that time ago! And yet you screwed it all up!” Indeed, Goku could have ended all of this. When Buu was in his previous form, Goku’s transformation could have easily overpowered and destroyed that monster…but he didn’t. Goku stammered for a second before he came up with an excuse, “But old kai, the boys needed to learn how to defend the earth without me…” As far as Goku could remember, he was a central part of their efforts in saving the world. From his early days dealing with the Red Ribbon army and King Piccolo to the more recent Frieza and Cell, the earth may have been doomed if it wasn’t for Goku. But what would happen if a new threat happened to appear and Goku wasn’t there? His sons had to be prepared, and Goku thought that Buu was a good way for them to prove that. “And we see how that worked out didn’t we!? Both our sons and the earth are gone and it’s all your fault you clown!” Vegeta drilled into Goku, clearly enraged. But as Vegeta was about to continue this assault, old Kai glared at the saiyan prince, “Oh don’t put all the blame on him, you got to answer for the mess we are in too buddy!” “What?! What are you getting at you old prune!” Vegeta roared at the Kai, enraged by the idea that he was also to blame for their current situation. The old Kai nearly lost it at that point, “AGH! I’m talking about the potara earring you insane moron! The one you crushed less than a few hours ago!” Of course, those earrings, a pair of extremely powerful earrings that if attached to the corresponding ears of two warriors, would fuse them into a single being of incredible power. A pair of earrings that were given to Goku and used with Vegeta to fuse them into a nearly undefeatable being…until they un-fused inside Buu’s body after getting purposely absorbed…which at that point Vegeta crushed his. “You two were unstoppable fused together and you knew it, if you kept that earring instead of crushing it, the both of you could have re-fused once you left Buu’s body and saved the planet!” But Vegeta didn't see it that way. The idea of refusing with Goku was a slap to his face and his pride. Heck, he only originally did it because the saiyan was already dead (And dying when you were already dead meant you simply vanished) and getting killed again wasn't something he was looking forward to. In a enraged responce, the Saiyan began shouting cures at the old kai, who obviously returned in full force. So...a shouting match between a anicent and powerful Kai and Saiyan prince begain. The Kai and saiyan continued to scream at each other for a few more moments until Kabito Kai slowly felt Vegeta’s power raise alongside his anger. Quickly using instant transmission, the fused Kai appeared between the two beings. “Quiet!” The kai screamed at the two, cutting off their argument, “Now is not the time for you little squabbles! We’ve all made mistakes, but screaming at each other is not going to fix anything!” Turning his attention to the two upper saiyans, Kabito began with them. “Listen you two; until we can figure a way out of this mess, I need the both of you to go do something that doesn’t involve using any more power. Got it?” Unfortunately that did not go well with the two saiyans. With the destruction of the earth and everyone they cared about, the two warriors were hyped for battle and combine that with a saiyans natural restlessness, it made the request a little difficult to follow. “But…what the heck are we going to do on this rock? It’s boring!” Goku whined. Vegeta had to agree with his saiyan comrade for once. At least earth had devices that could keep someone busy when they weren’t in battle. But with rock had nothing! And if they couldn’t use anymore power how could they train? It was a lose-lose situation. “I don’t care! You two just need to keep yourself busy in a way that won’t get Buu’s attention!” Kabito Kai knew the old man was right when it came to Buu, so the use of any more of the saiyan’s power was something he couldn’t risk. Despite hating the boring idea, Goku had to agree. Anymore use of their power could easily set Buu off and endanger that entire world. That was something Goku wouldn’t dare risk. So after convincing Vegeta (no easy task), the two saiyans set off to find something to stall their interests for the time being. That just left Kabito Kai to his own devices. Unfortunately the Kai’s warning to the saiyans also applied to the Kai as well. He couldn’t simply teleport to the planet and warn them, Buu would certainly notice him and go off on a rampage in order to kill him (and most likely harm many creatures in the process). So that left the Kai with a massive issue, how to warn this planet of this monster without getting himself killed? Agh, how the heck with all his power could this Supreme Kai be so useless? At this point he was about as useful as the others Kais like the Grand Kai or… What a moment…That’s it! Kais! -The Grand Kai’s Planet- King Kai, the current Kai in charge of the north galaxy…was scared out of his mind. Despite being safe of the Grand Kai’s planet, this Kai couldn’t help but be extremely worried. With the destruction of Earth and currently unleashed Majin Buu, how could he NOT be worried? This monster could easily destroy the entire planet and everyone on it with his pinky! Still, all the Kai could really do was hope that he didn’t show up… ‘King Kai!’ “AH! “ The sudden noise surprised the Kai, nearly making him fall on his behind. Regaining some of his balance, the Kai looked around in search of the voice. “Uh…who’s there?” King Kai asked, but when no one spoke up. It was only when the voice reappeared in his head that he figured out where it was coming from. Someone was speaking to him mentally. ‘It’s me! The Supreme Kai!’ “Oh it’s you…so what is it?” Now normally King Kai would have been a lot more respectful to such a being, but honestly…he was too nervous to care at the moment. ‘Now listen to me very carefully.’ The Supreme Kai told the other Kai, who nodded in return. ‘Your telepathy can contact anyone in the known universe, am I correct?’ Raising an eyebrow at the question, the Kai nodded. “Yes, universal communication is my specialty…why do you ask?” ‘Well…it may be a weird request…’Kabito Kai unfortunately started to hesitate, unsure of how to word his request. But King Kai’s patience was slowly draining. “Just get on with it!” ‘I need you to make a long distance call.’ Yes, I know no one really wanted to see this, but it had to happen. Because of the time of the crossover took place on the DBZ side, Goku and company had to be shown sooner or later. Due to the shortness of time that Buu destroyed earth and fought Goku/Vegeta, I had to include what the Saiyans were doing while Buu is in Ponyville. But don’t worry; these kinds of chapters will be far in-between. From now on, there will be always two or three Buu/Pony chapter before one of these chapters until they both get involved with each other. So we will return as Buu meets the rest of the Main Six next chapter, see you guys then!
