Krom felt like he was talking to the wrong person about this still, especially when it relied on him getting entry to the base without too much monitoring. This guy had nothing to do with that and was still going to be something he would have to explain to Krom. He knew what he had to do and what he was allowed to say, but he still didn’t feel comfortable revealing certain things. “Look, I didn’t ask to be born a Saiyan Elite and take this job because of my power. You act as if all Saiyans wanted to be part of a war. It’s a Kingdom, not some race battle…” He still got annoyed that he was being seen as the bad guy. To face the resistance when they were trying to save a planet from being taken was always going to happen and the only way to deal with the aggression would be to get rid of the aggressors. “Well, Yamate didn’t tell me completely either, but he did say he was an experiment of sorts. Makes me nervous, really”.

Yamate certainly seemed like the scientific-type which was always weird to Krom, he was never into science and all that but he wasn’t going to judge anyone about it. If they wanted to do science then they can do science, but he wasn’t going to get involved. Telling this man about the Beastman project didn’t seem like a big deal when he already knew they were doing something with them, or rather Yamate and his team of scientists were doing something with them. He didn’t like it, he hated seeing his own people being treated like fodder regarding these situations. When Aito suddenly snapped at him he was taken back a little, staring at him in disbelief at first before hardening his gaze again. “Your son? You experimented on your own son? I guess you and Yamate aren’t that different then”, he spoke, adjusting his hands under the table since he couldn’t fold his arms, “They’ve been trying to harness solar energy for weapons since before I was recruited and even if you can fire it from a machine, it doesn’t have the same effect! There’s got to be a life force behind it and unless you want people strapped to these weapons and harvested, making them into warriors is probably the better option!” Feeling annoyed he leaned back in his chair, sighing lightly. “Well you shouldn’t be asking me about time and resources because I’ve never had a part in all of these experiments. Science isn’t my thing and I want nothing to do with it. Hearing what goes on in those labs is bad enough”.

Viral was already feeling completely unsettled so having these questions set on him didn’t make him feel any better, like he was having to admit everything before he died. He might as well just do that, even if it wouldn’t make him feel better it would probably make everybody hate him enough to want him gone. Keeping his arms folded and his eyes diverted he became increasingly tense when Takeshi decided to go on a definite conclusion without questioning him further, just repeating what was said. Letting out a sigh to try and calm down so he could talk again, he went to open his mouth to talk but was interrupted by Takeshi letting a rather disgusting laugh. Turning slightly, Viral toughened up his hold on his arms, growling lowly as Takeshi just continued on with his condescending attitude. He was trying to tell himself it was none of his fault and to just interrupt Takeshi with the truth, but a constant voice in his head was just screaming at him telling him it was his fault.

Finding it hard to concentrate through the constant voice in his head and Takeshi’s blame game he soon held his head, pressing his claws hard into his scalp as he tried to get a grip just to speak up. It was very difficult when his mind was completely against him, even telling him to attack Takeshi for bringing this hostility. Immediately finding the guilt trip Takeshi was delivering too much he soon let out a hostile growl, marching over to Takeshi. “Fine! All of that is MY fault! Does that make you happier?? Knowing this is all because of ME??” he snarled at him, almost raising his claws to him but resisting the urge. “I was promised the planet’s safety, Yumi’s safety, if I went with them! And you know what? I accepted their promise! Nobody had to go after me! YOU never had to use the Dragonballs to go after me! Shu was captured because I thought what I was doing was right, but it wasn’t right! It’s all my fault! I did all that! I defected to your side once you removed the collar from my spine and Yumi was taken because I broke the bargain! Who knows how many more Earthlings they took with her!” Turning away he walked off again, stopping short of the bed as he pressed his hand against it as if for balance. “Go ahead and tell everyone! I don’t care who knows! Tell Shu it’s my fault he had to sit in that cell and be experimented on for months, tell Yumi it’s my fault she’s different! I already know I did it, so go ahead and spread the word! I don’t care anymore…”
