Takeshi was ready to start pummeling Krom and his father, nut he was trying his hardest not to jump the gun. If he went in when everyone else wasn't prepared then it could be a big problem, best not to complicate things. In spite of his thinking this it seemed like not everyone shared that sentiment, as T'charrl was quick to leap into action. Well that was faster than expected, it looked like they weren't really coming up with any game plan. Fair enough, that was pretty much his style anyways. Grinning he dashed in after T'charrl, ignoring his father who stood by as he went for Krom. With his friend keeping the Elite backing up he decided to join in, weaving around from behind the Kaesstrian and waiting until he got an opening, jumping up and trying to kick Krom in the side of the head while he was busy, "Don't forget me dammit, I'm your opponent too!" he shouted, cussing as he only caught air with his kick, landing back on his feet before lunging ahead, throwing a series of punches as well, keeping out of T'charrl's way. Kabocha really didn't want to be fighting the King, but being here before the man now they had little choice. With T'charrl going in after Krom too he knew they had to act, otherwise they'd risk something going wrong if Yamate was given a window. "Tch... Yeah, don't get hit by a man faster and stronger than us, no problem," he remarked, preparing himself as Choi and Kai shot off to get things started. Taking off after them he gritted his teeth seeing how easily Yamate was holding them at bay, seeming to never lose track of them as he blocked any incoming strikes with one hand. With the twins to either side he went right down the middle, giving a shout as he clasped his hands together and jumped up, slamming them down and missing as the King dashed back, creating a crater in the road with the hit. He was making this look easy, was he just messing with them? "For now we just keep back, let them fight..." Yumi mumbled to herself, watching as her friends all rushed down the King and Krom. It wasn't easy sitting by like this, but if she tried helping now she'd only get in the way. It wasn't like she was without purpose now anyways, what with keeping an eye on Shu and Haku. It struck her somewhat odd that she was meant to protect Shu, someone stronger than her, but she'd not argue it. Glancing back at the pair and the alien she gave them a small smile, flashing a thumbs up as well to try and reassure them. "They know what they're doing, don't worry. We're going to win, just you watch." Glancing back at the battle going on her smile faded however, reaching up and rubbing at one of her ears nervously. None of their friends were fighting at full strength yet, but then neither were the King or Krom for that matter. They knew the two men were stronger, the only thing they didn't know was by how much; they had numbers on their side, but she knew perfectly well that there were just some opponents you couldn't beat, not always. Much as she tried to keep positive she knew how dangerous this was, and it was now far too late to have second thoughts.
