Magic control

In a ruined city, one man, one monster and one plant were walking down the road.

A setup for an excellent joke, though the situation was anything but.

"Mr Buu, that is the chocolate factory I told you about!"

"Trust me, you won't need to turn people into food ever again."

Satan chattered endlessly, Buu kept a smile on his face and nodded along.

His left hand held the Saibaman Cabba, his new pet, this was a fun outing for Buu!

"Satan, what kind of chocolates?"

Buu asked, his mouth already watering from imagining the tastes.

Satan straightened himself and ignored the feeling of dread creeping onto him, what if this doesn't satisfy Buu? He wondered.

He was afraid.

He knew if he dosen't satisfy Buu with his food, he would be the food.

"It's all kinds!"

Endlessly talking to keep Buu busy, Satan cursed his luck.

He surely hoped there would be sweets there which made Buu happy.

While Satan was busy with saving the world, the z fighters had gathered on the lookout.

"Vegeta, why do you get to go in first!"

Goku argued with Vegeta, who was adamant about going in first.

"Nonsense! I am a super elite and you are a clown, I am going in first!"

The rest of the z fighters and Shin looked on with sweat.

They weren't able to get a word in this argument but someone had to say something, so Shin decided to take on the accused role of mediator.

"Uhmm, Goku san, Vegeta San, we should make haste, Buu is only momentarily stopped."

"And besides, the time chamber can hold two at once I presume, would it not be better for both of you to go in together?"

Goku and Vegeta paused for a bit and went back to arguing once more, but they had warmed upto the idea, that much was possible to see.

Shin breathed a sigh of relief at that, at least he wasn't yelled at! Safe.

"I am sure they will manage, you sure you don't want to go in Nappa?"

Shin mumbled and then asked the other top tier about his plans.

Nappa was a loyal man, and in this show of loyalty he had decided to remain guarding Buu's location and making sure his kings home is away from any harm.

Shin wanted to know if he still had kept the idea of guarding against Buu, if not they would make other arrangements.

But it seems his worries were unnecessary.

"Yup, someone needs to take care of Buu if he goes mad again."

Nappa grinned, not looking the least bit bothered by losing a chance to get stronger.

Shin was familiar with the Saiyan kind by now, he understood Nappa certainly desired to be more powerful, yet he threw that away for his duty.

Truly remarkable.

"Alright, enough talk, we have work to do men!"

"Keep yourselves hidden, we will tail Buu."

Nappa hit his palm with his fist, a happy grin was on his face.

He felt as if he was commanding a squad again, just like the old days.

"Ai ai!"

Chiaotzu played along with this act and saluted, causing Nappa to laugh loudly.

"Ready? Blast off!"

*Whoosh!*

The remaining squad flew towards Buu's location but their speed wasn't very fast, as they were supressing the majority of their ki.

Shin silently watched them leave, then turned towards Earth's guardian, Dende.

"You don't mind me staying here right? I would like to keep watch over them."

Dende immediately shook his head, what a joke, this was his big boss, the Supreme Kai, how dare he mind his stay.

"No! No problem at all, I am glad to be of service!"

Dende's predicament wasn't unnoticed by Shin, but this was normal for him, he was after all the Supreme Kai.

Lower realm gods were always acting as such in his presence.

"Wonderful, I shall take my seat."

Shin sat down and Dende had to sit besides him too, he can't leave the boss alone to go do something else now can he.

The Kai realm.

"Kai Kai Matoru!"

*Whooom*

A yellow beam sprang out of Raditz's fingers.

*Bang*

And hit the old Kai straight on his chest.

*Whooom*

Old Kai staggered back, but soon a small ball of light purple energy came out of his body.

"This.. is difficult to handle."

Raditz frowned, he was trying to handle the small amount of magical energy the old Kai had but it was proving to be a hard to do task.

"Huff, huff, concentrate, it's your first time handling magic, you will get the hang of it soon."

"Don't let go, you are almost there."

Raditz twitched his lips, this was a chore, he so hoped this could be a regular slugfest, he would eradicate anyone in that.

But magic, that wasn't his forte, he never had the chance to learn it beyond knowing how it feels thanks to launch.

And now having to learn how to manipulate the energy and seal it on top of that had proven to be a chore.

But so what, this wasn't something that stumped Raditz.

'No matter, it's a little more grind, nothing I haven't done before.'

He had no cheats, he had climbed all the way up here through sheer effort and smarts.

He was never one to shy away from hard work.

Glaring at the unresponsive ball of magic under his hold, a vein popped up on his forehead.

"Aaaa! Move! You shitty magic-"

"Move!!"

"Aaaaagh!"

Raditz black hair began flashing yellow in his anger, the Saiyan inside of him was angry at this foe.

Old Kai immediately wanted to berate Raditz for losing his calm, but when he saw the ball of magic begin to twitch, he watched with rapt attention.

'He's doing it..! In such a state nonetheless..!'

'Saiyans.. I wasn't aware their ability to grow under pressure was this immense.'

'It's an utter shame they were wiped out, the universe's level wouldn't have fallen so drastically if they were still around.'

Old Kai was sad for the eradication of a species with such potential, but there was nothing he could do now.

It's a good thing he could have their best and their king as a Kai now.

After this Buu debacle was over, he would show Beerus, he would show him how good Kai's could be!

"There he goes again."

Raditz mumbled and looked the other way.

This wasn't the first time Old Kai had daydreamed about teaching Beerus a lesson, his presence amongst the Kai's had given a very big confidence boost to the old man.

Nothing he could do about it-

*Wooom*

"Crap! Gotta focus."

Raditz steadied himself, he almost lost control of the energy but managed to hold on once more.

It won't be long, as soon as he learnt to do everything without failure he would rush back to earth.

His senses were always spread on earth even now, so he knew that people were dying.

Both regular people and his squad had casualties, the sooner he arrives, the lesser they have to sacrifice.

But there was another reason he wanted to hurry back.

'Buu feels weird, I wasn't able to feel him at all a while ago, yet now I can sense this pure negative energy, pulsing on earth.'

'Something is happening to Buu, tch, I gotta hurry, these guys won't be able to hold on.'
