==Summary==
[[Goku]] finally wakes up, and sees that [[Vegeta]] took the last [[Senzu Bean]]. He realizes he was knocked out so Vegeta could fight [[Innocent Buu|Majin Buu]] alone. He feels Buu's ''ki'', but not Vegeta's or [[Gohan]]'s, and wonders what happened. However, he does feel [[Piccolo]] and [[Krillin]]'s ''ki'', meaning they’re no longer stone as [[Dabura]] has been killed, and they probably know what's going on. Goku then [[Instant Transmission|teleports]] away. Up on [[Kami's Lookout]], Piccolo says it will probably be about an hour before the boys wake up. Krillin feels bad that Vegeta and Gohan are dead, and who knows what happened to Goku. Then he asks [[Dende]] if it would be okay to bring his family up here, knowing it's probably wrong to want to save just his friends. Dende asks Piccolo, but Piccolo says that he should decide for himself. Dende doesn't mind, since the Earth is still around because of them.

''"To put it bluntly, it’s impossible. I can’t defeat him. The difference in true strength between me and Vegeta was almost nil.

It's a union technique that only two people of similar power and body size can use. Two people fuse into one, and they can become an incredibly powerful person. Metamorans are weak on their own, but with Fusion, they become halfway-decent warriors.

Summary

Goku finally wakes up and sees that Vegeta took the last Senzu Bean. He realizes he was knocked out so Vegeta could fight Majin Buu alone. He feels Buu's ki, but not Vegeta's or Gohan's, and wonders what happened. However, he does feel Piccolo and Krillin's ki, meaning they’re no longer stone as Dabura has been killed, and they probably know what's going on. Goku then teleports away. Up on the Lookout, Piccolo says it will probably be about an hour before the boys wake up. Krillin feels bad that Vegeta and Gohan are dead, and who knows what happened to Goku. Then he asks Dende if it would be okay to bring his family up here, knowing it's probably wrong to want to save just his friends. Dende asks Piccolo, but Piccolo says that he should decide for himself. Dende doesn't mind, since the Earth is still around because of them.

Krillin prepares to leave, but he and Piccolo feel a familiar ki suddenly appear. Krillin is excited that Goku's alive (although technically he's not). Goku wants to know what happened, but Dende says he will heal him first. Some time passes, and Goku can't believe that Gohan, Shin and even Vegeta have been killed by Majin Buu.

He says Goku is the only one who can defeat Buu and asks if he still has more time remaining in the mortal world.
