Here's something I wrote.  It's a very short story.  I really wanted to
try to draw this as a fanmanga, but I'm just not talented that way.  ^_^
 However, if anyone else wants to try drawing it, let me know and we'll
see what works out.  Enjoy!

A Child's Game 

a Dragon Ball/Pokemon crossover by Jennifer Califf


Goku sat on a rock breathing heavily.  He'd just finished creating the
largest Genki Dama in history in order to defeat the ultimate evil in
the universe.  That kind of thing will take a lot out of a guy.  Not far
away, the spot where Buu had last stood was shrouded in haze created by
the dust stirred up during the battle.  Mr. Satan was blubbering, Fat
Buu was unconcious, a small dog was yapping, and Vegeta was exhausted
but satisfied.  Elsewhere, celebrations were spontaneously occurring
across the earth and the heavens.  Goku smiled.  And then he heard a
different noise.

At that same moment in heaven, Kaioh-sama heard the same noise.  He
stood straight up with a look of horror on his face, the joy of the
previous moment already forgotton.

"It can't be!  No, it's impossible!!" he shouted aloud.  Goku looked up.
 

"Kaioh-sama, what is it?" he asked.  Then he heard the noise again.  It
was coming from the cloud of dust which was finally beginning to settle
down.  He stood up and walked towards the noise in order to get a better
look.

"I never thought it could happen," Kaioh-sama said, as if talking to
himself (although Goku and everyone else could still hear him), "but
it's true.  Buu isn't dead!  He's EVOLVED!"

"WHAT?!?!?"  On earth, cries of fear and horror rose from the masses.
At Kami-sama's palace, Goku's friends and family stared blankly in
disbelief.

Goku looked down at Buu's latest incarnation.  Behind him he heard Mr.
Satan cowering with the still inert body of Fat Buu.  Vegeta struggled
to join Goku.  

"Kakarotto!  How can it still be alive?!?"  In horror, he could do
little but watch the events that unfolded.

Goku knew the awsome destructive power of Buu, the creature that had
nearly destroyed the universe.  And yet, somehow he couldn't be afraid.
Almost hypnotically, he bent down until he was nose to nose with the
creature.  He reached out his hand toward it. 

"GOKU!!  IT'S EVIL!!  DON'T TOUCH IT!!!!!!" Kaioh-sama yelled, fists
clenched.

"But Kaioh-sama," Goku said, "it's SO CUTE!!"  No sooner had Goku spoken
than a pink flash of electric death coursed through his body.  He
screamed in pain as skin and muscle smouldered and charred.  At last,
all that was left was a pile of ash where the once-great Saiyajin had
been.  His friends and allies stared in horror.  

"Kakarotto. . .,"  Vegeta whispered, turning pale.  The small pink
creature turned to face him, and stared at Vegeta with its beady little
eyes.  A small smile played across its face as it contemplated its next
victim.  The last sound Vegeta ever heard was a cry that would soon echo
throughout the universe, bringing with it only death and devestation.

"Pika. . . . .BUU!"  

THE END
