The soldiers were fairly determined to remain defiant, even against far superior fighters. It was a sense of duty and honor that kept them in place, even when a sword was broken like a twig. As far as they knew the Prince was their enemy, and if these Saiyans were with him then they must be as well, and not aligned with the other two. A definite problem arose when T'charrl spoke out about the supposed attacks, corroborating the other boy's story. This made the soldiers exchange uncertain glances with one another, not quite sure what to think of it all. "Come to think of it... A few of the spec ops were wandering around the place earlier, for a drill or something I think..." a soldier mumbled, frowning to himself. Now that he said it aloud it sounded rather off, as those kinds of troops normally had their own barracks and headquarters.

"And they all left in a hurry too," another quipped, frowning. "What was that all about?" Their idle chatter was silenced as T'charrl got back to talking, seeming to become more bold as he continued to speak. Again the men weren't certain what to believe, but even in their hesitation they were hardly compliant. Really it was beyond their pay grade to know most of what went on behind the scenes, so what was being suggested could possibly be true. "The general is inside, in his office!" the soldier answered back, not quite as loud as the Prince had been. "And let's say he did what you're telling us... That he attacked the Princes. Why would he do that if they were helping?"

"Because they were working with this guy too," Kabocha pointed out, gesturing to T'charrl. "They found out the truth about what's going on, that the general is doing way more than just trying to 'help people move on'. My guess is he was hoping to kill the brothers to keep things quiet, but instead all he's done is piss us off." Man, these guys had the wool pulled over their eyes big time. He could understand not being told things, but there had to have been something to tip them off. "So are you going to let us inside, or are we breaking in? Your call soldier."

Being spoken to like that from a child was demeaning, and worse still was their inability to do anything about it. "You do realize what will happen if he sees you..." the foremost soldier replied, looking at T'charrl uncertainly. "He'll try to kill you, and we can't stop that. If your friends can't either then you're all walking into a death trap. He's the highest ranked officer for a reason you know..." Looking to his broken sword the soldier tossed it aside, shooting the Saiyans an uneasy glance before looking to his comrades. "We're taking them in to see the general, but we'll escort them. If anything happens you're all to stand clear, the general can handle things himself." Even if this were a trick the men were confident that their commander was able to beat these four, Saiyans or not. After all the special forces had felled the two Princes, and they were not quite as skilled as the general was. With a fair deal of resignation the soldiers turned around, two pushing open the gate before they started on inside. 

"There, that wasn't so hard was it?" Kabocha smirked triumphantly, taking the lead now as his excitement began to bubble up. The general was in there, somewhere, just waiting to get a face full of fist. What an easy task this was going to be, as if a Kaesstrian was going to give them any problems. A quick one and done, they'd drag the man back and have their parents safe and sound not too long after, and with that all of their worries would be washed away. He couldn't help but flash a smile in the twins' direction, giving them a thumbs up. "Read to see your dad? It won't be long now!"
