"In the scheme of things capture isn't as bad, at least you'd be alive," Yumi said, smiling somberly as she shrugged her shoulders. She'd not go into great detail over what happened when you were captured, not wanting to unease anyone any further. So long as someone was left standing though there wasn't reason to worry either happening, they wouldn't let it. Rather than get all morbid and keep talking about what might happen, maybe they should focus on what [i]should[/i] happen. Vegeta was generally the strategist, but with him gone and busy they'd have to come up with a plan all their own. Luckily for them Kai was willing to give some input, which was a relief as otherwise they were going with Takeshi's idea. "One on one will never work, but I do agree we can't attack in big groups either, it'll get too messy..." Yumi remarked as she crossed her arms, furrowing her brow in thought, "Maybe... We split into three groups? One group focuses on beating Krom, the other keeps the King busy, and the third waits by to help wherever is needed. That way we're still keeping both those creeps busy but we won't be tripping over one another." That way too she could get Shu and Haku ought of fighting, if only for a bit. Of everyone present those two felt the most uneasy, it was best that they be kept to the side at least to start. 

Takeshi couldn't see any problems there, it sounded like a solid plan compared to what he had. Plus if he could convince Shu to be in that third group then he'd get what he wanted, keep his brother out of harm's way for the time being. Between Krom and his father he wasn't sure who he wanted to face off more against; Krom could arguably be blamed for everyone getting hurt or taken away, but then again his father was the one behind it. Both men were guilty and deserved to get their teeth kicked in, but he knew he couldn't well fight both of them and expect to win. "Okay, if we're splitting into teams then that's fine by me, makes it easier to fight," the Saiyan said aloud, smirking as he folded his hands behind his head and glanced over at Shu, "Buddy, how's about you be in the third group? That way you can fight too, but you help where you're needed. That way you can back everyone up." That and he could focus on fighting without having to worry about his brother's well-being. Sure, he was concerned for his friends as well, but if given the chance he'd just as soon put Shu away from danger as he could. Looking at T'charrl he smiled knowingly, nodding his head for his friend to come over. "Want to team up? We can fight together if you want. We'll make a pretty good team, we're both strong, you know?"

Kabocha wasn't sure how crazy he was about splitting up like this, especially not when it seemed like he'd not have either of the Princes fighting for him. He probably couldn't go and fight alongside Takeshi and T'charrl, especially not if they were going to take on Yamate. If he and the twins teamed up though they could take on Krom together, probably even beat him too. "I guess we can handle Krom, while you two get Yamate," he offered, looking over at the twins, "As long as you two are cool with it, I know I can't force you to fight. I don't know about you though, I'm way more willing to fight an Elite than I am the king, nowhere near as nerve wracking."

"Actually... Maybe you three should handle Yamate..." Yumi spoke up, smiling faintly as Kabocha gave her a baffled look, holding up a finger to silence him, "Hear me out. Takeshi and T'charrl are both strong, and Takeshi has fought Krom before. They can probably beat him faster, and then you'll get backed up by them and the rest of us. Besides, Yamate is stronger, shouldn't we put more against him?" If they left the first group to handle Krom on their own then herself, Shu and Haku could put their efforts to helping bring down the King. Realistically she doubted they would completely beat him here, certainly not kill him, but they could certainly give him a beating before he left. Turning to Shu and Haku she offered them a smile, placing one hand on her chest, "You two can be with me in the third group, okay? I'll keep an eye on both fights and we can go wherever we're needed. We should leave most of the combat to them though, they're all seasoned fighters." Not to mention they were all stronger than this trio here, which was only more reason to stay back. Much as Yumi loathed to think so it was pretty obvious they'd get in the way by trying to fight directly, and she knew her own strength wasn't good for much in a prolonged fight. "If these groups are okay then I think we might be ready."

"I'm fine with whatever, I just want to kick their asses," Takeshi said with a grin, "We'll beat Krom in no time and help bring down our father next, just wait and see. Those two aren't going to know what hit them." Him and T'charrl against Krom then, huh? Good, that jerk had seemed so smug when they walked into that trap a year ago, now it was high time he got payback for that. Crossing paths with that man in the palace had always been infuriating, he'd wanted to strike out so many times but never did for fear of Shu getting punished; his brother's health was no longer on the line, he could go all in and make Krom pay, not to mention for the grief he'd caused Viral too. Cracking his knuckles he began to hop back and forth on his feet, getting ready to move on and track down their opponents. "I guess we're ready then? Time to go knock some heads?"
