"RIKU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Fasha cried out to the sky.
Just then, a pillar of light struck down on both Riku and Buu as everyone was shocked from the sight. There was yelling that came from Buu before everyone saw him get tossed out of the pillar of light by a blue energy ball that sent him back a few feet away and exploded. As everyone stared at the light, it dissipated and everyone went wide-eyed from seeing three people in the pillar of light, and who they were as the center person was holding Riku in his arms.
"You dare hurt my dad...? You just sealed your fate..." A female voice said.
The first who spoke on the left was a girl with pink skin, a long pink tail, and long white hair as her eyes shined a deadly, piercing red.
"You make me sick, Buu..." A male voice chimed in.
Then, the person who spoke on the right was a shorter person who had golden spiky hair, sharp muscles, and a glare that could freeze a volcano completely as he glared right at Buu.
The final person to appear in the light instead of speaking turned around and walked towards Fasha as they placed Riku down as she aided him. The person stood back up tall as the ground began to shake violently as Buu growled in annoyance.
"The first mistake you made was crawling out of whatever hole you came from...The next was coming here and doing the things you did...And the last..." The person trailed off as he turned around and gave Buu a stare that had the eyes of killer intent.
Lightning began to strike all around the three individuals as the clouds came together and darkened the skies above. Windows that were left untouched had shattered from a pulse that shook the entire city from what it seemed as lightning struck the area. A glow began to emit from the person as everyone stared in shock of what they were seeing as the person raised their voice gradually and power as well.
"THE LAST MISTAKE YOU MADE WAS HURTING MY FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!"
"THIS IS THE END, BUU!!!!!!"
"C'MON THEN, SUPER SAIYAN!!!!!"

Back To The Story, Play
Buu stood there and waited for you with a glare as you flew towards him and the two of you clashed fist as your powers exploded and blew away everything around you. You held the clash while he was Buu was pushed back a bit but held his ground overall. You spun around sent a kick towards his head as he blocked and tried to punch you, but you back flipped away and kicked him in the chin with your other leg as he stumbled back and you landed in front of him.
"That's nothing!" He yelled as he fired multiple blasts at you.
You dodged and deflected each one of his attacks and charged forward as smoke engulfed the path ahead of you. From the dust emerged and punched Buu in the stomach hard as he spat up, and just when he went for another attack, two more silhouettes came out and both 21 and Ryu flew out and kicked Buu in the face, sending him sliding back a few feet as they landed next to you. You nodded to the two of them as they understood your signal and the two of them broke off as you squatted in place and reeled your arms behind you. 21 ran to the side and up a wall as Buu tried to blast her, but she jumped off and spun around in the air before a red orb surged around her index finger and she pointed it towards him.
"PHOTON WAVE!" She screamed as a beam struck the ground and went towards Buu as it was followed by a path of explosions.
"AHHHHHHHH!" Buu yelled as he was blown into the air and gasped when he saw Ryu above him with his hand pointed at him.
"BIG BANG ATTACK!" Ryu yelled as he fired a bright energy into Buu's stomach.
He was sent flying towards the ground as there was a huge explosion as Buu crawled out of a crater with burns and scrape marks, but when he looked forward towards a shining blue light, he gasped when he saw you glaring at him.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" You yelled as you fired a powerful energy wave at him.
"NononononononoNONONONOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Buu yelled as he was engulfed in the beam.
You angled the beam up to fly towards the skies and out of range of any attacks, and just as it was about to reach the clouds, it exploded and cast a bright light that covered the entire city. Once the light dissipated Ryu and 21 both grouped up with you and stared at the sky as the smoke cleared and you saw Buu staring at you with anger as his body was surrounded by a dark aura.
"You'll pay...You'll pay...! YOU'LL PAY!!!!!! AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" He yelled as he charged a massive energy ball above his head.
"NOW!" You yelled as the three of you squatted down in the same stance and reeled your arms behind yourselves.
"WHY ARE WE DOING YOUR TECHNIQUE!?" Ryu yelled as three blue lights charged in all three of you guy's hands.
"JUST SHUT UP AND DO IT!" 21 yelled at him as he growled.
"KAAAAAAAAA....MEEEEEEEEEEEE........HAAAAAAAAAAAA.....MEEEEEEEEEEEEE......" You all chanted together as the lights shined bright and everyone was astonished.
"DIE!!!!!!!" Buu yelled as he sent the massive energy ball towards you three.
"HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The three of you screamed as a massive energy beam fired from your hands and you were all engulfed in a blue light as Buu stared at the beam in shock.
"Huh?! What?! No! NO!!!!!" Buu yelled as his attack was obliterated and he could only see you at the other end of the beam as you went-wide eyed.
"FULL POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!" You yelled as the beam exploded even more and a huge surge flew towards Buu before there was a massive explosion that blinded everyone, but you stared at it the entire time.
As the light died down, all that was left was a large smoke cloud as you, Ryu, and 21 were all panting heavily from using a huge portion of energy in that last attack. Your veins were popping out of your muscles as sweat dripped from your body, and after you put your arms down, you turned around and broke into a full sprint towards your father.
"Dad!" You yelled as you slid across the ground on your knees and stopped next to Fasha as she had him laid on her lap face down while holding down the area that Buu had stabbed him.
"I've managed to stop the bleeding, and I don't think he hit anything important, but he needs to see a doctor now!" Fasha said as you turned towards Hawks and Endeavor.
"Get someone over here, please!" You yelled.
"R-Right!" Hawks yelled as he pulled out a broken phone from his jacket pocket and scoffed as he lifted Endeavor up and left to find help.
"Papa!" 21 yelled as she ran over and checked on him as well, and Ryu stood by next to her in his base form. "Is he gonna be alright?" She asked with worry.
"I think, but we need to get him to a doctor..." You said before there was slight movement from his body as he was waking back up.
"Y-Y/N..." You heard him call you as you leaned down closer.
"Dad! Dad, I'm here! Don't move! Help's on the way!" You said to him.
"Th-There's something...You need to...hear..." He said weakly as you were in emotional pain from seeing him like this.
"Dad...!" You said in sadness as you looked down and 21 suddenly felt a strange sensation that she's never felt before.
"Wh-What is...What was that...? Something's coming, but from where...?" She thought in worry as she stood back up and scanned the area.
"What's wrong?" Ryu asked her as she looked around the street they were in one more time before gasping and turning towards the sky where the smoke was.
From the smoke, a strange pink glob of flesh flew out from the smoke at speeds neither of them could react to as it flew between and pass them and struck you in the back and stuck to you.
"What the-AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" You yelled as it suddenly began to shock you with pink energy before it merged and mended withing your body and you fell over and out of your transformed state.
"Y/N!" Fasha yelled in worry as 21 glared at the smoke cloud and saw Buu appear with a grin on his face.
"Stupid brat...I actually felt that..." Buu said in annoyance as he cracked his neck and smirked at the other two. "So, which of you is next?" He asked before he had a look of nostalgia on his face when he saw 21. "Wait a minute...Are you...?" His train of thought was stopped when a menacing red aura exploded around 21 as she screamed loudly.
"YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THAT!!!!!!!!!!" She yelled as she flew towards him at high speeds as her rage had taken over completely.
"H-Hey! Wait!" Ryu yelled as he chased after her.
21 yelled as she reached Buu and just as she was about to land a heavy punch, Buu dodged slightly and grabbed her by the wrist as he stared into her eyes.
"I understand who you are now...You are a part of me, my dear." He said as she grew even more angry.
"LET ME GO!" She yelled as she tried to cut his head off with a red energy blade that formed on her hand without her knowing. "HAAAAAAA!" She screamed as she began an assault of attacks on Buu and he dodged her effortlessly.
"You fight a pointless fights. You need to understand that the heroes are your enemy! Listen to me, and you will know what the heroes have done to us!" Buu said as he dodged two more punches and grabbed her by both wrist.
"Let me go! Agh!" She yelled as Buu pulled her close.
"Listen, and look closely, this is the past of our people..." He said as his eyes suddenly turned red and 21 began to see white as her head began to hurt.
"AAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed in pain as Ryu tried to blast Buu, but an energy field came up around them.
"Dammit!" Ryu cursed as he tried to think of what to do.
As 21 screamed in pain, her cries had reached you as you groaned and began to push yourself off the ground.
"21..." You muttered as Fasha stared at you.
"Y/N, wait! You're hurt! You can't!" She yelled as you stood back up and turned towards the fight with anger in your face.
"It doesn't matter if I'm hurt! My sister needs me! HAAAAAAAAAAAA!" You yelled to power up, but nothing happened at all. "What?" You thought as you tried to power up again, but no transformation occurred. "I can't change?" You thought as you tried to jump high into the air, but there was no extra strength to get you off the ground. "M-MY quirk...I can't use it...!" You said in despair before hearing 21's cries of pain as Buu held onto her tighter. "No...! No...!" You yelled as you dropped to your knees. "What am I suppose to do!?" You yelled as you smashed your fist against the pavement.
"Y-Y/N..." Your father tried to call you, but was too weak to speak loud enough.
Meanwhile, 21 was going through an intense amount of pain as her eyes hard turned black instead of shining red in anger as Buu's eyes changed as well.
"Look into the past. Look what the heroes had done to us! Look! Look and see the duty you have to fulfill that was left by our ancestors, girl!" Buu said.
"AHHHHHHHHH!!" 21 screamed as her mind was being messed with.
"Bastard!!" Ryu yelled as he broke through the energy field and managed to punch Buu away from 21 as she fell unconscious.
Ryu caught her in his arms and flew back down towards you as he laid her down and turned back towards Buu.
"Y/N! What are you waiting for?! Transform!" Ryu yelled.
"I can't! He did something to me to lock my quirk! I can't do anything!" You said to him.
"What!?" Ryu said before hearing Buu laugh and turned towards him.
"Hahahaha!!!!! What now, boy? Those two are useless and you're no where near the heights of power that is needed to take me on! What now!? Gonna go cry to mommy?! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!" Buu laughed while holding his stomach as Ryu snapped from his remarks.
"You wanna laugh huh...?! YOU DARE LAUGH AT THE PRINCE OF ALL SAIYANS!??!?!?!?!!" Ryu thought as sparks exploded around him and Buu suddenly fell silent from the power up.
"TAKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!" Ryu yelled as he fired a Final Flash towards Buu as the bright light blinded Buu.
"Ohh shit....AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Buu yelled as he was engulfed by the beam and there was a bright explosion that blinded everyone in the city for a moment.
As the light dimmed down and the smoke cleared, Ryu was breathing heavily as he stared up at the sky and grinned when he saw Buu's body torn to shreds and all burnt as he groaned in pain.
"Agh! Curse you! YOU'LL PAY FOR THAT!" Buu yelled in anger.
"Hahahahaha! How's that, Buu? Why not take me seriously now!" Ryu yelled as Buu regenerated his body and glared at him.
"You want me to take this seriously? Really!? FINE! IF YOU WANT ME TO TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY, THEN I'LL CRUSH YOU WITH OVERWHELMING POWER!!!" Buu yelled before a bright white energy orb exploded in his hand and confused Ryu.
"What? His power level dropped significantly when that orb appeared. What is he thinking?" Ryu thought as Buu grinned and at laughed.
"You should have taken the opportunity to attack, boy! Now behold! The ultimate power of the Great Ape!" Buu yelled as he threw the white orb into the sky and everyone stared at it in shock.
"What!?" Ryu yelled as he stared up at it in shock. "What have you done!?" Ryu yelled as Buu held his hand up towards it.
Play
"BURST AND MIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Buu yelled as the white orb exploded into a bright light.
Everyone shielded their eyes as Buu stared at the light and the tail wrapped around his waist uncoiled and reacted to the light. Buu screamed loudly as his eyes turned bloodshot before shining red and his body began to morph and change. His muscles suddenly exploded and expanded in size as a fur suddenly began to cover his body. His mouth began to extend out farther and his entire body was growing exponentially along with his power. Ryu uncovered his eyes and stared up in shock when Buu's growing form covered the light and he was now taller than the buildings around them. He landed on the ground and cracked the pavement beneath him he was now resembling a giant ape and roared loudly before staring down at you all.
"Wh-What is that?" Ryu said as he backed away a bit.
"RRAAAAAHHHH!" Buu roared as a red orb formed in his mouth and he fired a massive red beam towards you all.
You all yelled as it went pass you and blew you all away before leaving a trail of flames and explosions that lit the city afire. Ryu groaned as he stood back up and you stared up at him while lying on the ground as Buu stood in the middle of the street.
"What now, heroes!?" Buu roared as he raised his fist in the air and his tail destroyed the buildings behind him.
U.A. Dorms, With Momo
Momo and your other friends watched the news broadcast in shock as Momo was staring at you with immense worry and clutched the jewel shard that was tied around her neck and hung in front of her chest.
"This isn't good! The strange villain who arrived to attack our heroes has suddenly transformed into a giant monster! Two of the heroes are down, and there's only one hero left!" The reporter from the chopper said.
"Isn't there anything we can do!?" Kirishima said in frustration.
"Ryu-san!" Tokoyami yelled as everyone saw Ryu fly towards Buu.
They watched as Ryu flew up to Buu's face and began to blast him with multiple energy blast, but suddenly, Buu grabbed him with his large hand and began to crush him as Ryu screamed in pain before falling out of his transformed state and going unconscious. After that, Buu let him go and punched him towards the ground as he slid across and landed next to you as you stumbled back to your feet and stared at Buu.
"Y/N's gonna try to fight that? There's no way..." Kaminari said.
"Y/N..." Momo thought before she suddenly went for the door.
"Momo-san?" Mina yelled as everyone turned towards her.
"They said it could help...Then I have to be there...! I have to help Y/N!" Momo thought as she reached the door.
Just as she opened the door however, she stopped and gasped when stood in front of her was another Ryu in different armor, meaning this was Vegeta, the one who came from the shard.
"Ryu-san?!" Momo said in shock.
"But, isn't he there!?" Kaminari said in confusion as Vegeta stared at Momo.
"You received something a few nights ago. Two jewel shards and a set of earrings. Where are they?" Vegeta asked.
"Huh?" Momo thought as she pulled out the jewel shard and stared at it before Vegeta grabbed it from her. "H-Hey! Wait!" She said before Vegeta walked pass her.
"The earrings." He demanded for them.
"H-Here!" Kaminari said as he walked over to a small table next to the couches and grabbed a small box. "You never got them back, so we left it there where we'd remember about it." He said as Vegeta took the box and took out the earrings before stuffing them in his armor.
Vegeta then turned around and looked at the jewel shard growing an annoyed look.
"You bastard, you've been asleep too long. Wake up." He said as he crushed the jewel in his hand and a light shined in his fist.
Everyone stared at the light in shock as it grew brighter and larger to the size that it was the same size of a person. When the light dimmed down, everyone was wide-eyed from who they were seeing appear from the light.
"Let's go already. Something's happened." Vegeta said as he walked for the door and the strange person who made everyone jaw-dropped followed suit.
Momo watched as the two of them walked out of the door before the person grabbed onto Vegeta's shoulder and they suddenly vanished into thin air.
"Was that...Ryu and..." Momo trailed off as she was in too much shock.
Back With You
You were stood in front of all your allies as Buu stood in front of you in his great ape form while staring down at you.
"This is where it ends! Goodbye! SUPER SAIYANS!!!" Buu roared.
"No...Please...! Give me power...!" You thought as Buu raised his foot up above you and you shut your eyes. "It can't end this way...It's not suppose to end this way..........Please...Give me strength..." You thought while clenching your fist tightly.
"DIIIEEEE!!!" Buu yelled as he sent his foot towards the ground where you stood.
"Y/N!!" Fasha yelled.
"GIVE ME POWER!!!!!!!!!!!" You screamed at the top of your lungs as you sent your fist towards Buu's foot.
Just then, an explosion went off under Buu's foot and made him roar in pain as you stared in shock and stared at your fist that was out.
"Was that...Me...?" You said in confusion.
Play Song At Top
"Hmph, not even close." You heard a voice as you turned around and gasped when you saw Vegeta, and what form he was in.
"V-Vegeta...?" You wondered.
Ryu began to gain consciousness and he stared up at the set of feet in front of him, he was jaw dropped when he saw Vegeta.
"Wh-What happened to him? His power...His form...It's unbelievable...!" Ryu thought as he gritted his teeth. "So...This is what it feels like...Pride in someone else..." Ryu said in annoyance.
Buu stumbled back a bit and shook his head as he glared at Vegeta who floated up in the air stare straight at him.
"Who are you!?" Buu roared as Vegeta remained silent. "I asked you...WHO ARE YOU!??!?!?!?!" Buu roared as he fired a red beam towards Vegeta.
"Watch out!" You yelled.
"Ridiculous." Vegeta said as he held up his hand and fired a massive green beam that shattered the attack and shocked Buu. "Now!" Vegeta yelled as everyone was confused.
Suddenly there was a blue beam that fired into the sky, and it flew towards the strange light that Buu had created and blew it up as everyone was amazed of the sight of the attack. After that, a strange light flew towards Buu and hit him square in the face as the attack made Buu roar and stumble before falling back into a building. The strange light stopped and landed on a pile of debris as everyone stared at it in confusion, and once the light dissipated, everyone was jaw-dropped from who they saw.
"Wh-What the!?" Fasha yelled in shock as she stared back and forth between you and the other hero.
"Is that...me...?" You said in confusion.
"Close, but not quite." The other version of you said as he and Vegeta landed in front of you and walked towards the building where Buu was.
Buu sat up from where he fell, but when he looked down at his body, he noticed that he had grown significantly smaller in size.
"What?! No!" He roared in rage as he stared at the sky in anger. "They destroyed the artificial moon I created? Impossible!" He thought as he glared at his new enemies. "You'll pay...You'll pay...! YOU'LL PAY FOR MAKING ME LOOK A FOOL!!!" Buu roared as he charged an attack from his mouth.
Suddenly, the two warriors disappeared and made Buu gasp as he frantically looked around for them.
"Hey, up here." He heard as he looked up to see them floating over him.
"Wh-What!?" Buu said in shock.
Suddenly the warrior who looked like you dove towards Buu at speeds he couldn't comprehend and stopped near his tail and grabbed it.
"Nice little trick. It may have worked on them, but it won't work on us." The other you said with a chuckle before grunting as he yanked on Buu's tail.
"RAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Buu roared in pain as his tail was ripped off completely.
After losing his tail, Buu began to groan in pain as he grew smaller and smaller before he reached normal size and was back to normal as he dropped on his knees and breathed heavily. Vegeta and his ally landed in front of him as he glared towards them and they held their hand up.
"Give up. You're no match for us." Vegeta said to him.
"Don't tell me what to do--AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!" Buu yelled as he was suddenly blasted to oblivion by the two warriors.
You all watched as Buu seemed to be incinerated by the blast, but you noticed a pink glob of flesh he threw out that flew away as the rest of his body was turned into nothing but ashes. After seeing his body get destroyed, you felt something slide off your back and turned to see another pink glob come off you as it turned to ashes as well, and you suddenly returned to your transformed state.
"I got my quirk back..." You said as you stared in amazement at the two fighters as you were in awe of seeing another you.
"Who...Who are you...?" You wondered as the other you turned back to you with a smirk as you could feel the power oozing out of him.
"So...You're him, huh?" The other you thought as he chuckled as he stared at you and you were confused. "It's great to finally meet you...Grandpa..." He thought.
Just as Buu is about to test his new abilities as a giant ape, a set of new fighters appears that no one has ever encountered before, and their powers proved to be overwhelming for the evil villain, Buu. Who is this fighter that resembles you? What secrets do they hold? What awaits you in the coming future of the path to become the strongest hero of all? Find out next time on 'The Symbol of Hope.'
