The whole of what Krom was saying didn't seem right, there was no way Viral had willingly gone and joined the Saiyans. Surely no one else in the shuttle believed that either, right? With how angry and vindictive the guy was towards his father, Takeshi just couldn't imagine it having been his own decision. "Right, it's silly. For a second I mistook you for someone with brains," the Prince retorted, frowning as he tried to get to tending Shu. On any other day it wouldn't have been an issue at all, handling his little brother, yet today saw an interesting little change. The mauling earlier hadn't been terribly traumatic, yet it was enough to trigger the mauling in which he'd lost his tail. The sudden and painful onset of that memory hit him fair hard, and after freaking out a bit Takeshi had to distance himself from his own brother, much to the amusement of Krom. There was just no way he could handle that right now, not if it meant he risked a third attack. Sitting down on the furthest open cot he could find he kept his gaze off of everyone else, ashamed by how he was acting as he hoped they would just ignore him now for the trip. 

"That would be for the best, though I doubt even that is going to win any hearts," Yumi responded, frowning as she continued to stroke Shu's hair, "I would imagine that 'idiot' was just following your orders, or am I mistaken? Maybe not yours specifically, but someone's. Unless you mean to tell me that he somehow got the idea himself of invading a world he probably didn't know about?" She wasn't going to warm up to Krom any quicker than the rest, certainly not if he was going to be so condescending about everyone he spoke of. Watching him head to the controls she turned her focus again to the youngest member of their group, smiling sympathetically at his sleeping form. "You're going to be okay, everyone is..." she mumbled, closing her eyes and letting out a silent sigh. They hadn't beaten the King as they had hoped, but at the very least everyone made it out alive, that's what mattered most. How easily she and the others had been thrown aside though... They had a lot of training to do if they meant to really beat the Saiyans. 

Most everyone had taken a brief nap on the journey back to Uuonoe, albeit it didn't do much to alleviate any pain. Out of just concern for any hidden damages Yumi had gotten Krom to open up communications before they arrived, arranging for some medical personnel to be ready once they landed. She didn't know how they would explain the Saiyan's presence, but she figured he must have [i]something[/i] in mind for the impending witch hunt that was to follow. Arriving once more at the familiar world they were indeed greeted by a plethora of medical personnel, as well as Aito who looked to have taken time off from working with Viral. There was no hiding the fact there was injured and Yumi knew that, yet it didn't make disembarking the shuttle any less awkward for her. As soon as her friend's father saw them, all bandaged and bruised, he immediately gave a serious look of concern. "We're all fine, honest," she assured him, smiling nervously as she waved her hand, "Shu and T'charrl are just tired, that's all." Okay, well the latter was a bit beaten up, but he would be fine now that they were here, right? And Shu was just exhausted... She hoped.

Aito, not having learned of the mission until they left, was neither overly pleased nor hopeful that they were successful; just seeing everyone alive however was a surprise, and a much needed one at that. Dealing with someone of Yamate's caliber on their own was suicide, even if they did have strength in numbers. While the medical personnel went ahead and began looking at the others, Aito made it a personal point to visit Shu and T'charrl first and foremost. Shu was, as Yumi had said, exhausted, and his energy levels suggested he had expended astronomical levels in whatever had gone on in the fight. T'charrl on the other hand showed heavy signs of being in battle, even if none of those were life-threatening. "You never should have gone there, you're all lucky you're even alive," the doctor said to Yumi, frowning as he looked at her disapprovingly, "I'm glad you're all back, but surely you understand the gravity of what you just did?" Seeing the vaguely familiar face in the crowd he glanced to Krom then, "And you... What are you doing here?"
