Yumi hadn't missed what Viral did, she was fully aware that the beast could be hurt. Now that she found herself atop it too she realized it was almost like an armadillo, with occasional gaps in its plate-like skin that would be susceptible to attack. If she could just stop it from swinging and trashing about then she would be able to more easily do away with it and secure her kill. The first idea she had once mounting the animal was drive it into trees, hoping that maybe causing it to ram them would injure it and slow it down. One tree, then a second and her plan looked to be working. By yanking forcibly on its ears she could drive the animal into wherever she pleased, shame there weren't big rocks around. She was almost getting into it too when Viral suddenly jumped onto the creature as well, making her gasp in surprise and release her hold on the animal. "What, why? I'm getting close to beating it!" Yumi retorted, frowning as she watched Viral leaving. Sighing she jumped off as well, dashing away to avoid the furious animal. The sound of it roaring and growling could be heard some way as they moved off, stopping once it was completely out of sight. Glancing back in the direction of the still fussing creature Yumi managed a small smile, her ears folding back in an embarrassed display. "Okay... I know that wasn't the best first attempt, but I'll do better next time!"

Kabocha was very nearly going to smack Choi, the other boy was getting way too many kicks out of this. "Aren't you supposed to respect your elders, idiot?" he asked, frowning as he narrowed his eyes at his friend, "I guess they don't teach cooks simple manners." He could take shots too, only difference was he was far moodier and vindictive right now. He so could deal with people, that lady was just impossible. Kai wasn't going to get anywhere with her either and they would have to search elsewhere for some money, plain and simple. Confident that Kai would fail too he looked over towards the stall and immediately his jaw dropped, seeing their friend returning triumphant. No way, how in the hell had he managed to convince the woman to help? Having a hard time believing it Kabocha followed Kai closely when he walked off, staring at him dumbfounded. "What did you do? Threaten her? Threaten her kids or something?" he asked, shaking his head, "There's no way you managed to get her to talk without doing something! She wouldn't give me the time of day if I asked!"

Takeshi would seek first, that was what he had decided upon and the others agreed. Since T'charrl was so certain his hiding skills were so good he'd have to make it a point to try finding his friend quickly. Shu had done it before, albeit by running into and barreling over the poor guy, but he'd found him. With a bit of mindful searching and maybe some luck he could do it too. Wasting no time the little guy was off to hide, well before they could even finish their discussion about the game. Not that no one saw it coming, Shu never was one to stand around and listen. Smirking as T'charrl called after his little brother Takeshi chuckled, rubbing his head as he looked back. "I'll be extra careful about animals and all that, don't worry. I know Shu will too, and I doubt we need to tell you," he added, looking at Haku, "But that sounds like a good idea. If something shows up just get in touch with your scouter and we'll all meet up again." It shouldn't be an issue though, they were just animals. Takeshi would be the first to admit, well maybe not, but acknowledge that he had underestimated the Kaesstrians before. That error had nearly gotten them killed, he wasn't going to take T'charrl's people so lightly again. Animals were another story, regardless of planet they were just that, animals. Nothing a good strong hit or a Ki blast couldn't solve, plus that just meant food afterwards. "You two get hiding then, don't go that far off, I don't want to search the whole planet, you know?" Going to the nearest tree he folded his arms against the bark, laying his forehead against them and closing his eyes, starting his count aloud.

So Shu was already off and trying to hide, wonderful. That hyperactive dolt probably was really good at this game, he may even be the last one found. Then again T'charrl said he was really good at hiding too, and considering this was his turf Haku was inclined to believe him. All he knew was he was going to be the first found no doubt. He was never taught anything in the way of being sneaky, it just wasn't what he was meant for. Getting up in someone's face and fighting, that was his lot in the military even if he wasn't that great at it. Sneaking and hiding though were a special skill set, one he doubted he had even for something as simple as a game. Maybe he was getting down on himself though, to his benefit Takeshi couldn't be all that familiar with the terrain either. Finding a spot the Prince didn't know about wouldn't be all hard, and if he concealed himself well enough then he'd be fine. Watching Takeshi take to a tree to begin his countdown Haku nodded to himself, glancing briefly at T'charrl before jumping up into a tree and away, racing off in the direction opposite Shu had gone. He was going to try his damnedest, even if it was a silly game. No use in playing if he was only going to do so half-heartedly.
