Whatever was going on with Viral was worrisome quite a bit. Yumi didn't know for sure if he was losing control though it seemed likely and had no idea what to do about it. She could always try the whole 'sweet talking' nonsense, though it hadn't quite worked before and it may not work now either. It didn't help that the Beastman was bearing down on her like a wild storm either, that gave little time to think. The only thing that came to her mind was protecting herself, and she did so with a small gathering of Ki. Hardly enough to cause damage, but that wasn't the intent anyways, just to push Viral back. Once he was close enough she pressed the Ki to his abdomen before releasing it, watching in silent relief as he was sent flying back. "Viral, please stop! This isn't fun anymore!" she shouted, just trying to get through to him. Her words were to fall on deaf ears unfortunately, Viral showed no clear signs of stopping. When he rose back up he just had a purely furious look on his face, clearly he hadn't heard her. What's worse was he was gathering energy and doing so at an alarming rate. That would be fair play any other time since she had used it, but Viral loathed using energy. If he was doing it then something wasn't right. Eying the energy uneasily she gasped when it was fired, having to dive to the side to avoid being hit. Behind her she could hear it slam into the wall, a sizzling noise coming from it melting into some of the wall. Rolling when she landed she quickly got back onto her feet, her eyes going to Viral nervously. How was she supposed to stop him? "Viral, it's me! I'm not your enemy!" It wasn't easy making Shu feel any better, certainly not with the others giving him mixed messages. Takeshi figured the only way he was going to help his brother was take him somewhere alone so they could just have fun, no one around to scrutinize or poke fun at him. Even if it was just their friends being idiots the little guy was getting upset, either that or he just really felt like giving his knees a hug. Smiling sympathetically, Takeshi placed a hand on Shu's head and did his best at trying to cheer his brother up a bit. "Huh... I never though about that before..." he mumbled, taking his hand back and folding both arms over his chest. "But that doesn't make sense... You'd think you changing randomly is because you [i]can't[/i] control your energy, not the other way around. So that doesn't sound right..." It wasn't so much an energy issue with Shu energy as it was emotional. Far as he knew anyways his brother would change not because of Ki but due to his emotions running wild, and making him change in turn. He could be wrong, he probably was too, but that was his best guess. "You get angry every time you change, you know? I bet that's it. And... Maybe something Father did makes it harder, sort of how it is for Viral, yeah? Maybe something they're doing for him could work for you... Could always ask Vegeta."
