Okay. No need to start screaming just yet. You have options here. Sleeping before you is some pink blobby creature with the Majin symbol on it. And no Majin Buu egg. Ahah. Haha. Hahahaha… oh no. Yet it doesn’t look like it’s waking up soon. You could… just blast it before it wakes up, but Supreme Kai was training Tapion and Minotia to remove those it absorbed. How did it even get loose? Was it some after-effect of Janemba? Was it Towa’s doing? Mmnhhh… maybe you can do something to seal it away? Maybe you could work with Tapion and Minotia?

Ugh. What can you do?

“G-guuuyyyyys! We might have a situation here!” you call out as you look over the creature, sensing out to see just what the heck this IS. It… does feel like what was in that egg, but far more “solid” now. You’re not really sensing any distinct energy signatures inside it, though maybe that’s because it’s not letting out as much power? It… doesn’t feel exceptionally strong, but it’s also just sleeping.

Shin hurries over with everyone. “What’s the matter Gohan? What did you fiiiiiiAAAAAAAAH!” He lets out a scream, then quickly shuts his mouth. Tapion and Minotia draw their weapons, Kibito standing in shock and disbelief.

“M-MAJIN BUU IS FREE!” the tall red Kai exclaims.

“Supreme Kai, what do we do?” Tapion asks, rushing next to you with his brother.

“We have to stop it qui- …wait. It’s… sleeping?” he asks in confusion. “How did it get out, then?”

“...Maybe it was something to do with the sword?” you speculate, holding up the covered blade.

He rubs his head, unsure. “That… could explain it. Yet, even in this state, he is very dangerous!”

“Should we try to seal him away in something?” Minotia asks. “If we destroy him, all our training is gonna be wasted.”

“Might we be able to separate the Grand Supreme Kai in this state?” Tapion questions.

“I wasn’t able to sense anything inside it, though that might because it’s asleep and isn’t giving off a lot of Ki.” you mention.

Shin eases slightly, but still looks unsure. “…Tapion, Minotia, Gohan, can you all work together and try to locate the Grand Supreme Kai inside Majin Buu? If we can manage at least that, we have something to start with. It will take all three of you focusing together, but this might be our best chance.”

“Supreme Kai, what happens if Buu wakes up? And by that I mean, what specifically should we expect?” you ask.

He closes his eyes solemnly. “When Majin Buu absorbed the Grand Supreme Kai, the innocence and purity of him balanced out the chaotic tendencies of the creature, resulting in a childlike state, but one prone to outbursts and without real restraint on his abilities. He may just as readily be willing to slaughter innocents as he is to seek out food… sometimes mixing the two and turning people into candy for him to consume.”

You shudder. “That sounds… horrible.”

“And if we remove the Grand Supreme Kai, will he revert to what he was before?” Tapion questions.

“Lacking the innocence, he will retain South Supreme Kai’s strength, and the original form’s unrelenting chaotic nature.” Shin explains.

“Feh! Gohan should be more than capable enough to take on such a foe.” Elder Kai exclaims, approaching and looking to you with confidence. “With that power I helped you unlock, no form of Buu would be able to hold a candle to you.” You smile back at him, and he gives you a thumb’s up.

Minotia though has a more pressing question, “How long do we have?”

“It… is hard to tell, but I would suspect no more than 20 days.” Shin replies.

You and the two brothers give one another nods. “Then we have no time to lose.” The three of you close your eyes and focus on the form of Buu before you. After reaching out and trying to feel the being’s energy, you… kinda get something. Somewhere in its head, you sense a subtle shift in the energy. It feels SIMILAR to the rest of Buu, but more concentrated and ever so slightly off. Minotia doesn’t quite get it, but Tapion picks up on it, even more clearly.

“I think… I think I feel it.” Tapion states.

>A. Let’s coordinate with Tapion then and try to pull Grand Supreme Kai out of there pronto!

You look back to Shin. “Supreme Kai, what next? I feel we should at least wait until Minotia’s got the hang of this, but the decision’s up to you.”

He crosses his arms and lets out a contemplative “hmm.” Glancing at Minotia, he recommends, “We should be as prepared as possible for this. Let’s take a day to go over this, and be absolutely sure we’re ready. We’ll need to watch Majin Buu until then. Minotia, I shall assist you in trying to find the Grand Supreme Kai within Majin Buu.”

“Understood, sir!” the boy responds with determination. “I’ll do my best!”

As the situation calms down you let King Yemma know you’ve got an important thing to work on with the Supreme Kai first, and he understandingly gives you the OK, but reminds you that you still have some paperwork to go through. Sitting down and watching as Shin helps Minotia with the task at hand, you actually have a question for the Supreme Kai. “So, what about South Supreme Kai? Will we have a chance to free him too?”

“That is the plan, but we need to make sure we’ll be able to bring out Grand Supreme Kai first. From there, we will have a base to work from to locate South Supreme Kai as well.” he responds, still helping Minotia.

Tapion sits by you, giving you a curious look. “So… how long do you have left before you’re brought back?”

You rub the side of your head. “Well, given the wish sis made, I think I still gotta wait out all the Dragon Balls resetting. If we use Namek’s like we did for Minotia, it would be… October 18th, at the absolute soonest. But if we wait for Earth’s, I’m waiting until July of next year. So, still a ways away from now.”

He nods. “I see… you’d prefer being home sooner rather than later, no?”

You also hear Elder Kai grumble underneath the tree he’s sitting by.

>A. Absolutely! If the Namekians are willing, that is
>B. Better just rely on one big wish, I think, so might be better to wait for Earth’s
>C. Elder Kai, come on, sis did away with that Negative Energy stuff! Clean slate!
>D. Something else?

>>4476428

>B. Better just rely on one big wish, I think, so might be better to wait for Earth’s

>>4476428
>A.
If for some reason the Namekians need to use the Dragon Balls for an emergency then we can use Earth's.
>D.
"I want to train as much as I can, but I think due to Hell breaking loose that my strength is needed more at home. I'm lucky to have a second chance at life and I need to make the most of it."

Well… as much as you do miss your family… “I mean, I definitely have people waiting for me back home, but it would be better to use the Earth’s Dragon Balls rather than Namek’s. That way we can bring back people with one big wish, just in case something else happens between now and then. Plus… I kinda have made some good acquaintances here. Friends, even. It’s not like I’m gonna be hurting for company.”

“I see. If that’s what you feel is best.”

“How about you? Are you gonna head back home some time?” you ask Tapion.

“Well, it would depend on what else Supreme Kai has in store for us, but I wouldn’t mind returning for a time. Nor would I mind seeing a bit more of the universe. And…” He smiles softly. “I wouldn’t mind going to Earth again, actually.”

“Heh, to see Izzy again?” you question cheekily. Tapion returns a soft laugh.

Supreme Kai finishes helping Minotia, and the three of you spend some time preparing for exorcising the Grand Supreme Kai. Now… do you wait longer to try and bring out South Supreme Kai, or pull out Grand Supreme Kai first?

You attempt to try and find South Supreme Kai as well, Tapion and Minotia doing the same. And… you don’t have nearly the same kind of luck. Unlike Grand Supreme Kai, there’s no real energy signature you can feel out that’s distinct enough from the surroundings that you can get a focus on it. It’s like if you were looking for a sewing needle in uncle Raditz’s hair. Tapion’s having no luck either, from the expression on his face. Minotia might have something, but he’s taking his sweet time. Hrmn… maybe if you try a bit harder…

“Mmh…”

Come on, you just gotta try a bit harder, almost…

“Mnngh…”

You… start to feel something as you sense through Majin Buu’s energy. Minotia seems to sense something as well, but he then has a questioning look on his face. His eyes then widen as he steps back. “Uhhhh… bro, Gohan, Supreme Kai…”

“Just a bit more and-”

“HEY!”

The sudden shout causes you to leap back, Tapion and Minotia doing the same, Supreme Kai gasping in shock. And… Majin Buu sits up. Oh. Oh crap.

“Why you interrupt Buu’s nap?!” it demands… letting out a big yawn in a strange, childlike voice. “Yaaah… Buu still sleepy.” the pink Majin grumbles, rubbing its eyes. “Huh? Who you?” Buu asks, pointing at you.

>A. …I’m here to tell you a bed time story, Majin Buu!

Gohan, think, quick, what do you say? Uh… uh… ah! AHA! “…I’m here read you a bed time story, Majin Buu!”

Buu smiles with joy and claps its hands together. “Bedtime story! Bedtime story!”

“Tapion, Minotia, you guys set the mood with your ocarinas.” you ask your friends as you walk up beside Buu. “Okay Buu, I’m gonna tell you the… uh… the story of the Little Blue Robot Hero!” Oh god what are you doing Gohan. Oh god you hope this works.

“Little… Blue Robot Hero?” Buu repeats innocently. “Can Buu have candy for story?”

“Y-yeah, sure!” you respond. You glance over and see Supreme Kai hyperventilating, bracing himself against the tree Elder Kai is now hiding behind. Which just leaves… “Kibito! We’ve got candy, right?”

He gulps. “Candy. Yes. We. Have that. I shall. Get some.” He then teleports away with a call of “Kai Kai.”

“He’ll… get you some good candy, Buu!” you tell the Majin. He starts to clap again. You sit down in front of him. “So! Let’s begin! Off in the distant year of 20XX…”

And so you… give a rather embellished retelling of two of your favorite games (even taking in ideas from some fan comics you’ve read), Kibito coming back with candies that the Majin enjoys. As you start to reach the climax of the the second game, Buu starts to get drowsy again. And to Tapion and Minotia’s credit, they keep up decently well with you telepathically giving them your best recollections of the soundtrack.

https://youtu.be/rw9BYlAmM74

“And so our little Blue Bomber finally makes it to the Skull Fortress, but as he passes through the obstacles and enemies before him, a massive mechanical dragon gives chase! It corners our hero, who turns to face it, and-”

“Zzzzz…”

And Buu’s finally fallen back asleep. Shin walks beside you, sighing in relief. “I am not sure how that worked. But it did.”

“Eheh… yeah. He’s… somehow really easily satiated.” Still… who knows how long Buu will be asleep? What do you do now?

“Okay, Buu’s asleep. One more try?” you ask the two brothers.

“One more try! I almost got ‘em last time!” Minotia affirms.

“Let’s try to use Grand Supreme Kai’s Ki signature as a basis to look for him.” you recommend, getting to work on just that.

Now taking your time, and with a better lead on where to look, you feel out South Supreme Kai’s Ki signature inside Buu. Tapion struggles to really locate it, but Minotia manages to do it. And… there! You’ve got it! You can clearly sense out where South Supreme Kai is too! He’s… well, “deeper” inside Buu, in a way. Like there are layers to it. And yet… there also feels like something else inside there. Something… different.

“Well, how is the progress?” Shin questions.

“I believe Minotia and Gohan have found him, but I’m not sure if I have yet.” Tapion replies. “Should we wait until I have?”

“I mean, I think we should. Better to have it all down before we try it, though if you’re still having difficulty finding South Supreme Kai, you can follow Minotia and I for it.” you tell Tapion.

He gives a quick nod. “Very well. I’ll keep at it.”

As he spends time trying to search out South Supreme Kai, you walk over to Shin and mention to him, “Hey… so, did Buu absorb anyone else, as far as you’re aware of?”

The Kai looks to you with surprise. “What do you mean?”

“Because I felt something… different, in there. Like, there was another presence inside Buu. Something… different. More sinister. Not very strong, but nonetheless there.” you explain.

https://youtu.be/2okaf_qOqgE

He rubs his chin contemplatively. “I’m not aware of Buu absorbing any other beings, especially not one of any substantially evil Ki, but… hrmn.” He looks towards Buu, eyes focused intensely. “…It’s unlikely, but…”

“But?” you repeat.

“It… is possible that Grand Supreme Kai managed to sequester some of Buu’s darker impulses away when he was absorbed. Hence why you weren’t attacked when the Majin awakened.” he speculates.

“So, what happens if we pull the two out of Buu?” Minotia asks, hands behind the back of his head.

“It shouldn’t really make too much of a difference. Buu would still revert back to his pure, chaotic state. So we must be ready.”

“I believe I have the hang of this, Supreme Kai.” Tapion calls out. “Shall we begin?”

The three of you hold your hands out, locating the Ki signatures of Grand Supreme Kai and South Supreme Kai. And… you got the first one! Got ‘em clearly! You, Tapion, and Minotia all give out a pulse of energy that grabs hold of him, and you’re clearly able to free him from where he is inside Buu. And next is South Supreme Kai! And…

https://youtu.be/_ZD09Lyx9g8

“RGH…” Buu’s eyes open wide, his body starting to change. “NGH… HHRRLLGHH…” For a moment it sounds like… Buu’s choking, or something. Agh, come on, just grab hold of the other Supreme Kai and you’ll…! “BUUUUUU!” the Majin stands up and yells angrily, steam erupting from his vents, an eruption of Ki starting to push the three of you away. Damn it!

“Gohan, Tapion, Minotia, get out of there!” Shin warns.

“Almost… got ‘em!” With all your might, you and the two brothers free, at the very least, Grand Supreme Kai from Majin Buu! The three of you set the growing form of him down beside Shin. Kibito quickly runs to him and starts to heal him.

The steam around Buu blinds you all to his form for a moment, but you can feel something change. Something drastic. You take a defensive stance as it starts to clear… and from it, a massive, tall, buff and bulky form stands. Buu tilts his head. “…You… you made… me like this…” Buu declares, voice significantly deeper, filled with rage. A malicious, hideous smirk appears on his face. “You try to take… Buu’s power… Buu not let you! BUU NOT LET YOU! Hr… HRAAAAHH! Ahhh!” He starts to beat his chest, but his form suddenly shrinks slightly, before growing again. Damn it!

“Supreme Kai, get everyone else out of here!” you demand as your white aura surges around your body. “If he goes after you, all of this will be for nothing!”

“R-right!” Shin replies. “Gohan, Tapion, Minotia, good luck!”

Buu lets out a loud roar as his body pulses again, everyone else teleporting away. It’s now or never! “We free South Supreme Kai and we’re good! Come on!” You and the two brothers hold your hands out, Tapion and Minotia also attempting to use telekinesis to hold him in place. The three of you then manage to find South Supreme Kai’s Ki signature, but right as you send out a pulse of energy to try and take hold of him, Buu lets out an explosion of energy from his body.

The three of you are pushed away right as you grab hold of him, Buu then charging at you and trying to slam his massive fist into you. Thankfully, you’re quick enough to catch it, using his inertia against him and flipping him over behind you, Buu slamming into the ground. You spin around and land, at the ready. Buu gets up and starts firing a massive barrage of Ki blasts… above you? “RRAAAAAHHhhaaa?” Right as Buu sends them careening down at you, his form pulses once more, steam erupting from his body, and making what would have been a rain of Ki blasts into an uncoordinated mess that you, Tapion, and Minotia are capable of deflecting away. Steam erupts from Buu’s body once more as he yells out louder. Now might be your chance!

>A. All right, once more! Let’s get South Supreme Kai out of there!
>B. Tapion, Minotia, you get him out, I’ll keep Buu pinned down!
>C. I need you guys to hold Buu in place, I’ll get South Supreme Kai out of there!

“Tapion, Minotia, you get South Supreme Kai out of there! I’ll hold Buu off!” You charge forward, slamming your foot down to get Buu to back off and focus on you. His body pulses once more as he dodges away, letting off more steam, swinging his massive limbs at you, with you barely dodging. You manage to kick Buu in the stomach and force him back, his body pulsing one more time, staying small for longer. But just then, Tapion and Minotia send out their pulses of energy to locate and grab on to South Supreme Kai, and quickly the pair force him out of Buu’s body. Buu lets out a loud yell as he becomes engulfed in steam.

Here’s your chance! You try to find that bit of malicious energy from before and exorcise it. You locate… what feels like it, though there’s something off. Not nearly as… chaotic as you felt before. Can’t worry about that now, no time to lose! You grab hold of it and pull it from Buu’s body, a small pink blob flying out.

https://youtu.be/7tZ6OSlZGsE

The cloud of steam from Buu’s body is pushed away with a powerful burst of energy. Before you… stands a much smaller figure. Childlike, even. Yet unmistakably Majin Buu. He slowly lifts his head, eyes opening, a menacing grin appearing on his face, sclera of his eyes pitch black while his irises are crimson red. A lot, vile chuckle escapes from his lips. And… you feel the malicious energy from before still there, in fact it seems like Buu is nothing BUT chaos and malice now. Then… what did you pull out?

You look over to the small pink blob… as it reforms into the chubby Buu from before. Only significantly reduced in size, his whole body barely the size of your head. He’s also fast asleep. Well. That’s. Not what you were expecting.

“HOOOOOOOO!” the child form of Buu howls out, beating his chest.

>A. Tapion, Minotia, get these two outta here, I’ll finish this Buu!
>B. Guys, can you seal away this Buu somehow?
>C. You two keep Buu occupied, I’ll take these away from the battle!

“Tapion, Minotia, take these two out of here!” You motion to South Supreme Kai and the Mini Buu. “I’ll finish off this guy!”

The kid Buu lets out an uproarious laugh. “AAAHAHAHAHAHA!” A pink aura flows around him. “Hohohohoho… HAHAHAHAHAHA!” He launches towards you, arms stretching out wide and then flinging at you to try and grab you. You leap above them, but Buu opens his mouth and lets out a massive beam. So this is how he’s gonna play, huh? You chop at the beam and knock it away. Buu then launches his body at you like a cannonball…

https://youtu.be/muDdK21j3NM

And you slam your fist into him with all your might, causing his rubbery, gummy body to bend slightly from the sheer force of it before rocketing back to the surface. Buu carves a path through the ground, standing back up quickly, but stunned at how powerful that blow was. You crack your knuckles. “What’s wrong? Don’t tell me that’s the best you’ve got.”

Buu starts fuming, literally, and flings his antenna forward, firing out a beam from it, then another, and another, only for you to doge each one as you get closer. You land on the ground and narrowly avoid another blast, with it… turning one of the rocks into a jawbreaker. Okay, DEFINITELY avoid that beam at all costs. You start by grabbing Buu’s antenna and yanking his head into your knee, then barraging his body with relentless blows, even mixing in Lightning with it. Buu screams out at you angrily, even attempting to bite your arm as you punch him.

You knock the Majin away, letting your aura really flare up around you. “King Yemma! Got a soul coming to you soon for washing, and it’s a real feisty one! Hope it comes back as a better person when it’s all over.”

Buu fumes and seethes, part of his body liquefying and dripping down. That looks dangerous… or, it would, if not for… “BRAVE CANNON!” A blast of energy bolting at it and destroying the sludge. Tapion floats above you. “Supreme Kai says to avoid that, it’s how Buu absorbs his victims! You have do destroy every part of him.”

Minoatia floats beside him as well, the two brothers ready to help. “We got those two to safety, too!”

“Sneaky! Thanks, Tapion, Minotia!” Okay, how do you finish this?

“Tapion, Minotia! Use your ocarinas to keep this Buu from escaping! I’ve got something to end this for good!” you call out, your white aura surging around you. Dashing at the Majin, you strike him in the gut, dodge under a swing of his arm, move to the side to avoid the follow-up kick, and then grab his leg and spin him around, flinging him into the air. Buu stretches his body out like a parachute to slow his ascent, then trying to stretch out wider to cover you, laughing maniacally… when he notices you holding your hands up, a bright white light emanating from your body. “LUMINAIRE!”

https://youtu.be/Ch461Ux75a4

And right as your attack is about to go off, the brothers suddenly start playing their ocarinas, Buu’s body retracting. He screams out in pain, limbs flailing out wildly. His right arm manages to take a swipe at Minotia, who has to break concentration to dodge it, blocking a grab with the flat of his sword. Buu’s arm retracts, and he holds both above his head and charges a sphere of energy with enough power to have blown up the Earth several times over. But it’s too late. The powerful blast of your attack makes contact, causing Buu to lose focus and even forcing his attack to hit himself. Tapion’s continued playing is enough to hold him in place. You let out all your power, and in one final push, blast away Buu until there is absolutely nothing left.

It… it’s over? Haha! It’s over!

https://youtu.be/JAaQ1kZiues

“King Yemma… you see that Buu’s soul pop up over there?” you ask aloud, trying to contact him.

‘That I do, kid. You and your pals are something else! Heh, guess you’re really showing off that new title of yours isn’t just for show.’

You fall back, laughing. “Th-thanks! Hahaha! Wow! Can’t believe it’s finally over!”

‘I’ll expect you to be helping with the paperwork for that little request of yours too, though, Gohan.’ King Yemma adds.

>A. Aaaaabsolutely, hahaha…
>B. I’ll… get back to you on that!
>C. Contact Supreme Kai and see how those you rescued from Buu are doing

“Aaaaaabsolutely, hahahaaa…” Gotta get that paperwork done sooner or later. “That’s a promise, King Yemma.” You sit up, Tapion and Minotia floating down beside you and helping you up.

“It would seem our task is complete.” Tapion remarks. “Buu has been vanquished, and the Supreme Kais have been freed.”

“Let’s be absolutely sure, just in case that Buu hid a bit of himself somewhere.” you comment.

Minotia gives you a side-eye. “…You literally just checked with King Yemma to see if he’s dead.”

“You always gotta be sure. Mom’s been through too much stuff with Towa for me not to know to double check.”

He blinks. “Gohan, the only other bit of Buu left is that little one you pulled out of the kid one. Like. Come on.”

“Oh! That reminds me, where did you put it?” you ask. “Also, Supreme Kai, everything good with you guys?”

‘That we are. We’ll be back shortly.’

Minotia motions for you to follow, and you end up near South Supreme Kai, still out cold, and the tiny Buu, still fast asleep. And… yeah. There’s no trace of the other Buu left anywhere. Supreme Kai teleports in with Elder Kai, Kibito, and the now awake and recovered Grand Supreme Kai. Kibito heads to South Supreme Kai and starts to heal him.

https://youtu.be/hNxpDaULjEs

“You have surpassed my expectations. Gohan, Tapion, Minotia, all three of you have gone above and beyond what you were tasked with. I am proud of all of you.” Shin states.

“And that power within you I helped unlock really is something, ain’t it?” Elder Kai asks.

“Heh, absolutely. Would’ve been much harder to deal with Buu without it.” you reply, rubbing the back of your neck bashfully.

Grand Supreme Kai walks towards you, smiling kindly. “Having been caught up on the situation, I must say that I am astounded and proud of you mortals. Shin picked the perfect students.”

“You flatter me, sir.” the smaller Kai comments bashfully.

“So… what about this Buu that Gohan pulled out?” Tapion questions.

Grand Supreme Kai looks towards it, then towards you. “I am surprised you noticed this being. It is what remains of the goodness that Buu gained when he absorbed me. With the other Majin vanquished, this is what remains of Buu.” He looks to you. “Tell me, Son Gohan, what do you believe we should do with it?”

>A. Might be better to seal it away and keep it napping, somehow
>B. Well… if he does have some of the “goodness” you gave Buu, maybe he can become good too?
>C. It… might be better if it was destroyed too, to be honest. It’s still Buu, after all
>D. Something else?

“Well… if he does have some ‘goodness’ in him still, maybe this Buu can learn to use it? Become, well, completely good.” you ponder aloud. This catches Shin and Kibito by surprise… but not the Grand Supreme Kai. You laugh softly. “Eheh, might also have plenty more stories to tell ‘em, of heroes he could learn from. I just think… maybe it’d be better if we make him a defender of creation, rather than a bringer of the end, y’ know?”

“An excellent outlook, young Son Gohan.” Grand Supreme Kai praises. “I shall hold you to that.”

“Are you really sure about this, sir?” Shin questions.

He nods, and Elder Kai too speaks up in support. “Gohan has proven to be capable of handling situations like this. Don’t worry so much, young one.”

Finally, South Supreme Kai awakens too, and Grand Supreme Kai catches him up to speed. The mini Buu is given a tiny, comfortable bed to rest in. All the Supreme Kais thank you, Tapion, and Minotia for all you’ve done, with Shin declaring that you’ll all always be welcome on this world. So… now what?

“Hey, I know you all have only recently returned and everything… but think you might be able to stop by Earth some time? Maybe when I get revived?” you ask the Kais.

South Supreme Kai rubs his massive chin, while Shin looks to the Grand Supreme Kai. It’s Elder Kai, however, who answers first. “Eh. I’m not one for social visits, my boy. I’ll think about it, but no promises.”

“Not even for the cute ladies?” you ask.

South Supreme Kai gives him a side-eye as Elder Kai’s head perks up a bit. “…I’ll. Think about it. Ehehehe…”

“Seems what you heard about our great ancestor was spot on, sir.” the massive Kai comments to the more portly one.

“Well, it wouldn’t hurt to see how the mortal realm has developed up close.” Grand Supreme Kai responds. “We will be sure to make time.”

“Indeed, in fact we should start checking in on what all has transpired in the last… hooh, five million years since we were absorbed.” South Supreme Kai then pats shin on the shoulder. “I must say, you’ve done quite well to make it this far on your own.”

He rubs the back of his neck. “It… admittedly hasn’t always been easy, I’ll admit. Especially considering how long it has taken me to get to this point. But, thank you nonetheless.”

“Well! Now that that’s settled, I gotta help King Yemma with paperwork.” you mention.

“Very well.” Kibito places his hand on your head. “Kai Kai.”

The two of you appear next to King Yemma, who gives you a nod. “You have had quite the last couple days, it would seem.” he comments.

“Hah! I’ll say… actually, mind me letting grandpa Bardock know while I help with your work?” you request.

“So long as you promise to keep focused on the task at hand.” He pushes a stack of papers down towards you, some ogres bringing a desk thrice as tall as you are over for them. “I had these started up after formalizing Bardock’s new position. You’ll be required to go through all of the requested members of his squad in becoming Hell’s Martials.”

The stack of papers, now on the desk, is even taller than the desk itself. You start to look through them, surprised that they’re legible to you, and notice that there are… rather long and detailed lists of each member’s deeds both before and after dying. At the top, though, you find grandma Gine’s. Smiling softly, you grab the oversized pen on the side of the desk, wielding it like a sword, and start writing. ‘Grandpa Bardock, can you hear me?’

‘Ah, Gohan, I see you dealt with that Buu thing at last.’

You blink. ‘Ye- wait, how’d you know that?’

‘These psychic visions, remember? Heh, still, impressed by how you handled that. Good job.’

‘Oh but it wasn’t just defeating Buu! Tapion and Minotia and I managed to free Grand Supreme Kai, and then we held off a bulkier version of Buu…’ And you continue to relay what all went down, working hard on the papers as you do. And you get the sense that Bardock’s smiling all the way through it.

Chi-chi rubs her forehead, sighing softly. “You know, most kids your age will bring home a stray animal or something. Not… four criminals.”

“They’re not pets, mom. They’re gonna be working under me to show they’ll reform.” you explain.

“Daaaang.” Cheelai comments, looking over your home. “This is some gilded cage to end up in. Way better than the slammers the Galactic Patrol has.”

Chi-chi narrows her eyes, now looking to the Para Para brothers, the youngest actually sitting down with Icarus, who coos gently as the kid pets him… while the older two are given some ground rules by dad. Mom’s attention back on you, she comments, “Izzy, are you sure you’re up for this?”

“I mean it was either them or Buster the lizard-wolf-tiger…” you respond lowly. Chi-chi gives you an unamused stare. “Look, mom, for real? I’m taking this role as their new boss seriously. I want to help them reform. I’m gonna give them a chance. Can you give them a chance too?”

Mom crosses her arms and sighs. “Izumi, you’re barely a teen, and most of these people look even older than you. I don’t know if it’s wise…”

“You and dad and everyone else were able to help people older than you when you were my age.” you comment, causing mom to flinch. “And I gotta say, I think I learned from the best. Besides, some day I’ll have subjects to rule over myself, and best to get some experience in before then.”

Chi-chi has a very mixed reaction on her face, trying not to pout at your retort, and yet also feeling pride well up inside her, and yet further finding it hard to argue with the logic of you growing as a leader. Sighing louder, she relents. “Fine, fine. I’ll allow it. But…!” She points her finger right at Cheelai. “Acer may be giving those boys the dressing down, but the same goes for you, young missy. We’ll be keeping our eyes on you.”

Cheelai just gives an OK sign in response. Mom grumbles, but turns away and heads off. The green girl then places her hands behind her head. “Okay. What now, boss? Got something set for our ‘rehabilitation’ already?”

>A. First order of business: shopping. Come on let’s go! You all could do with some new threads!
>B. Better we start with something small. Some community service, minor stuff, you know

What is the good in being Giant Monster God Park Rangers without a snappy uniform?

>>4482724
Yeeeesss

>>4482724
Why don't we just clothes beam up something respectable? We can train them to behave in a public setting some other time and way.

>>4482726
Are you suggesting...

MAKEOVERS?

>>4482743
...Maybe we can hold off on the changing their personal details until they're more settled.

A sly smirk appearing on your face, you motion for her to follow. With everyone gathered, you place your hands on your hips and grin wide. “Soooo… how do you guys feel about handling larger animals? Because there’s a certain island park that could use some helping hands.”

The Para Para bros give a shrug. “We’ve handled big game before, no sweat. Just tell us where and we’ll be there, boss lady.”

Cheelia though places her hands in her pockets, raising an eyebrow. “And just what kinds of animals are we talking about?”

You Clothes Beam up a 30 meter long sash, then hold it vertically, keeping it in place with Ki. “See the top of that? That’s the average height.” You ease it a bit, bringing it down to about 10 meters. “Though most will be about this tall and below. And a few…” You bring the sash all the way up to 100 meters. “…will be this tall, though they keep to themselves. Usually.”

Cheelai gulps. “Y-you’re… serious.”

You bring the sash down to about 2 meters, then divide it into little strips. “I am absolutely serious. First task is going to be helping the park rangers of this island.” You give each of them outfits matching Lapis and Chuu Lee’s, and then add the divided sash as little armbands. “Will there be a problem, Cheelai?”

She looks down at her uniform and frowns. “…Mnnh. No, boss.”

“Good! Because afterwards we’ve got some makeovers coming up!”

She plays with her white hair, glancing at the Para Para bros. “…Fiiiiine. Whatever.”

“Good, let’s be on our way!~”

You get in contact with Lapis and Chuu Lee, letting them know of your plan, and getting your group teleported over to Monster Island. Lapis looks over the group, the Para Para bros actually a little enthusiastic over what they see as an easy gig. “So, take it you two can fly… what about the little guy though?”

“Para Para!” Son Para exclaims excitedly.

“Eh he’s a tough lil’ squirt. He’ll just stick with us though.” Bon Para responds.

“And you, girly?” he then asks Cheelai.

She huffs. “Ain’t got that kind of skill on my own, pal.”

“That’s fine. You’ll be on watchtower duty.” He motions to the tall tower in the distance. Lapis then looks to the brothers, and in a nonchalant tone tells them, “You three, you guys are on patrol. Keep an eye out for poachers, make sure any trapped animals are freed, and don’t get eaten.”

“Got it, don’t get eaten, and those other things. This’ll be a snap.” Don Para replies… with a snap of his fingers for emphasis.

Lapis then looks to you. “As their boss, will you be watching over their progress, Izumi?”

>A. Absolutely. My responsibility, so I’ll be there in case any of ‘em need help
>B. Naaaaah, they’ll be fine on their own, won’t you guys?
>C. Anything in particular they should know about as of late?
>D. What about you, Mr. Lapis? You gonna be sticking around too?
>E. Something else?

Sure, fine, but if you don't indoctrinate your employees early, they might think they have rights.

>A & C.

“Absolutely. They’re my responsibility now, so I’ll be there if any of ‘em need it.” you reply confidently. “In fact, anything they should be aware of, keep an eye on, that sort of thing? Like, y’ know, rowdy animals, sneaky poachers.”

Lapis nods approvingly. “Atta sport. And been sensing some folks staking out the island at night from afar. Shouldn’t be too big. Just keep your eyes out and you’ll be good.”

“What exactly have they been scouting out for?” Cheelai asks.

“Been stalking some of the carnotaurus nests from last I checked. Might be after their eggs.” he tells her. “But might just be doing that as a distraction. Keep an eye out in either case.”

“Hmmmm…” Cheelai taps her chin.

“Anyway, just last until next morning and I’ll consider that enough.” Lapis tells you all. “Remember: no getting eaten.”

He teleports away, leaving all of you to your work. Hands on your hips, you tell everyone, “All right, let’s get to it!”

As the Para Para bros head off, Cheelai takes a step towards the watchtower, before stopping and turning her head back. “Heeeey boss. Mind giving me a lift?”

…A teasing smirk appears on your face. “What, don’t wanna walk the whole way?”

She shrugs. “I’d get to my duties quicker if I didn’t have to hoof it all the way there.”

You chuckle deviously. “I guess you have a point. Come on. Let’s get you there quickly.”

Cheelai suddenly becomes very aware of what you’re plotting, and gulps. But before she can decline you’ve already picked her up like an oversized puppy and are flying off at incredible speeds. In what would have taken her a good 30 minutes to even reach on foot, you’ve already got her at the watchtower within 3 seconds. Her legs shake a little as she realizes she’s on something solid again. “…Okay. Lesson learned there.”

“Honestly you should try to learn how to fly yourself, some time. Pretty handy.” You toss her a Scouter and start to float away. “Keep in touch~!”

>>4482941
The next hour, leading into dusk, goes by fairly uneventfully. You observe the Para Para bros break up a scuffle between a larger dinosaur and a purple bull-like animal… through getting them both to dance away from one another. Useful. You also check in on Cheelai a couple times, making sure she doesn’t give in to boredom and start to slack off. The girl, to her credit, gets the hint quickly enough… partly because she’s rather unsettled about a couple of the harmless but surprisingly sophisticated pranks you’ve pulled on her dozed off.

You also checked on the carnotauruses that Laips mentioned. The skinny, swift, horned dinosaurs look up at you with… kinda derpy expressions all things considered, as you fly over their area. Hmm… doesn’t feel like there’s anyone else nearby. Not yet, at least.

>A. Keep an eye on the place from afar, but don’t tip off anyone who might be after them

Well, since you’ve got the ability to… heh heh heh. You use the Multi-Form and make a few copies, each of them forming a Spirit Bit, and all of you heading in different directions to scout out and watch over the dinosaurs, though keeping your distance from them. One going higher above, watching from the air, one heading back in closer to the middle of the island, one a bit closer to the shore, and one closest to the carnotauruses. With the sun finally dipping below the horizon, the copy of you closest to the shore sensing something in the distance.

https://youtu.be/myxUmcpBaqU

Cheelai then contacts you via Scouter. “Heeeey boss? We might have company. South-east of the island, Scouter’s picking up a couple new things. And… something higher in the sky. Seems to be something like a ship… hah wow this Scouter’s way better than the ones the PTO use! It can even detect that!”

The one of you higher above doesn’t sense anything, but a quick check with the Scouter shows an unmanned robot flying towards the island. Well well well. And the ones that were approaching by sea have stopped, just outside of visual range. You’ve got some options here, does seem like the robot is heading towards the carnotauruses. What to do?

>A. Send the Spirit Bit at it and knock it out of the sky!

“Everyone, get ready for a pincer move with these trespassers.” you comment over Scouter, having the Spirit Bits encircle the ship in the air as your copy by the shore floats silently and stealthily towards whatever is in the ocean. Leaving your last copy on standby in the interior of the island, you head into the carnotaurus’ area and watch as the unmanned robot heads inside as well… and finally get a glimpse of it.

…

You almost feel like you’re being pranked when you do.

Inside flies a large, mechanical ape, maybe half the size of Godzilla, that looks… oddly non-threatening. The dinosaurs are startled, but one among their group angrily charges towards it, flapping its tiny arms in a threat display as it leans its head forward. The carnotaurus’ horns clang against the steel ape’s frame, causing the dinosaur to take a back up. A flash of light starts to repeatedly shine from its head as the machine then opens its mouth, and lets out a… song?

https://youtu.be/ZnCJ3OUv-bc

Instantly the dinosaur is baffled and unnerved, yet… starts to become strangely soothed. The robot ape’s massive hand starts to reach for it as the carnotaurus is calmed. You use the Hero’s Barrier to block the grab and knock the hand away. The song the robot was playing stops, and the dinosaur comes to… letting out something halfway between a roar and a whine as it quickly runs away.

Grinning up at it, you announce, “Heeeeey buddies!~ You’re not supposed to be here! You better turn back now, or preferably, surrender.”

The gorilla robot lifts its arms and starts to beat its chest threateningly. Not backing down. And that doofy face of its just… you can’t take it seriously.

You grab the robotic ape by the leg, and using a bit more strength then you really expected to need, toss it away from the carnotauruses and off towards the center of the island. The one dinosaur that headbutted it earlier slaps its stubby little arms against its sides and roars at the machine. Pftahahaha. It sounds like it’s clapping. Now what do you- oh right! You have the Spirit Bits try and form a barrier around the ship, though your momentary distraction allows it to narrowly slip away. Bah! Okay, keep on target!

Meanwhile, you sense Don and Bon Para engage with the machine after your copy directs them to it, though for Don it proves to be a bit harder, lobbing grenades at him and forcing him away. Bon Para meanwhile is able to get up close and punch the robot gorilla in the face, though it quickly retaliates by firing blinding eye-beams at him.

“Come on guys, don’t let this thing get you down!” your copy near them cheers. “You ain’t gonna let this thing style on you, are ya?!”

“Tch, she’s right, bro! Come on, let’s show this mechanical lameo some real moves!”

To your surprise, the robot opens its mouth… and starts to speak! “Yooouuuuu Monster Island Ranger FOOLS! You know nothing of the power of Mechani-Kong III! Even with that accursed Head Ranger Lapis gone, I should have known he would leave some ungrateful underlings to try and foil my plans!”

“Yo geezer, who the heck are you?” Don Para asks.

“I am the illustrious Doctor-! HEY!” He’s interrupted for a moment, your Spirit Bits chasing the ship still. Ahhh, so he’s on that thing.

“Doctor Hey? Never heard of you.” your copy comments.

“NO! I AM THE ILLUSTRIOUS DOCTOR WHO!”

“...Who?” Bon Para repeats.

“Exactly! Now prepare to meet your doom!” The robot ape begins to advance, the strange light on its head flashing bizarre colors as it does.

>A. Why are you poaching dinosaurs? And why with a giant robot ape?!
>B. Blast the ship’s engines with your Spirit Bits!
>C. Cheelai, coordinate things on the island! I’ll handle this Doctor!
>D. Something else?

You shake your head. “Whyyyyy are you poaching dinosaurs? Actually, adding to that, why are you doing it with a GIANT ROBOT GORILLA?! What do you gain from this that you couldn’t by just… I don’t know, selling your design documents to the highest bidder?”

https://youtu.be/Z0-cdqJ0PaM

“I am not merely POACHING these creatures you foolish girl!” this Doctor exclaims through the robot’s mouth. “They are in the way of my genius! Within their den I have detected a special crystal I need to complete my goals! Goals beyond your comprehension!”

“Oh as IF.” you exclaim in irritation. “I bet that not only could I comprehend them, I could point out the flaws with them. Try me.” Good, good, get ‘em monologuing, that’ll make this all the easier.

“You mock me?” he exclaims, having the robot advance on you, flashing its bizarre light. You Clothes Beam up some sunglasses for yourself and your allies. “You little Ranger sprout, I seek the ultimate power! The power over time itself!”

Your eyes roll as if they’re going to fall out of your head. Great. “What kind of crystal?” you question next, motioning for the Para Para bros to move closer.

He laughs, overly eager to show off what he probably thinks is his supposedly superior intellect. “Haha! You know nothing, girl. Time Crystals, of course! They should be within that den! Selling them off for further funding is merely a bonus to accessing usable Time Crystals! …Why aren’t you hypnotized yet?”

“Your fancy lightshow doesn’t work on us, Doc!” Bon Para declares, setting down a few devices that starts to play a beat and give off a lightshow of their own. “And you moves are as stale as your motives, ya dig?”

“Now let’s show you some real funky beats! BON PARAPARA~!”

https://youtu.be/KehhtBcHn0I

“Bonpapa~!”

The pair start to dance, to the annoyance and growing frustration of this Doctor character. “Are… are you mocking my brilliance?!”

“Right and right, left and left, now spin and turn and a GREAT BIG SMILE!”

And… while they have to dodge another couple grenades, Don Para even getting nicked by one, soon enough the machine ends up dancing along to the beat. And not only that, it seems the Doctor guy and whoever else is with him get caught up in it too. Your Spirit Bits not only manage to catch up with the ship, they also are timed perfectly with your copy reaching the boat.

“N-no! NOOOO! HOW?! HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN?!” He exclaims through the robot’s speakers.

“Para Para Boogie!~” the brothers yell out together, leaping up and kicking it in the chest, causing it to stumble and fall to the ground. Meanwhile, the captured aircraft keeps trying to escape, only to be rattled against the barrier you set up.

You head over to Don Para and heal his injury quickly, then hold your hands up. “Boys? Great job! Come on, high-fives!” The two grin and do as asked. “Seems like you’re already starting to get the hang of this.”

“Eh, not the first time we took down some big dumb machine, ya know.” Bon Para replies. “Buuuut… guess this is just a bit different from the norm.”

“Now, I managed to catch the ship they’re in with my Spirit Bits, so I’ll have you guys take these people to the proper authorities. I’m gonna check on this robot in the meantime. Follow the copy of me by them to a place closer to the mainland.” You turn to look over at the robot gorilla. “I’m gonna take a look at this in the meantime.”

“You got it, boss!” the pair call out and start to fly off.

With them leaving, you fly over this… what did that Doctor guy call it? “Mechani-King III?” Ugh does that mean he had two more of them? Well, whatever, let’s see how this works! Taking your time to go over it… you realize that this isn’t actually that sophisticated a machine. It’s certainly a DIY build, but most of the tech used in it looks even less sophisticated than some of the Battle Jackets you’ve seen. In fact, even the mech you saw Monty using is probably newer tech than this. Even those eye beams it had aren’t really high-powered weapons… in fact they’re barely better than flashlights. The grenades are just… low-grade napalm. What you do find interesting is the hypnotic device on its head linked to the speakers in its mouth. Investigating them, you see strange mechanisms hooked up to it.

As you try to find where it leads, deeper in the mech… you sense something. You find a hatch and… inside, there’s a gorilla hooked up to strange machines. A very confused gorilla, but nonetheless a gorilla. Hhhhuh. That’s. Different.
