Aito was still trying to defend the actions of the rebels even after all of his admittance that the rebels weren’t doing a terribly good job, managing to irritate him quite a lot. The rebels were assuming they were doing good when all they were doing was leaving the planets they won vulnerable to attack when they all decided to be placed under their own rule again. They didn’t know what they were doing and this was the point on his surrender, but it didn’t help matters that he couldn’t complete his first job when the man wasn’t even here. “You’re only saying that because you believe you’re on the ‘good’ side…” Maybe once Korian got here things would be better, but then again maybe he would just sound exactly like Aito before deciding to openly put him in the docks and torture him repeatedly for his actions. “Hmph, I don’t care for your words that much when you’re constantly bashing my existence, but the collars are something I don’t agree upon either. Having slaves is lowly; it’s better to convince people you’re on the side that does it best”.

Krom was still only wanting to get off the scientific talk incase he said something that was out of line, that he wasn’t supposed to reveal to the enemy. The collar stuff was fine, but the fact that this guy knew about the Beastman project made him wary to tell too much. There was always the possibility he may end up having the King know and come to terminate him before he spoke too much about it, but he wouldn’t go down without a fight if that was the case. Talking about Viral so much was annoying him a little bit, especially when he was still an artificial creature and not a natural soldier, taking his strength from science. “Viral could create a mech out of nowhere after half a year of his recruitment, used it to level settlements. Don’t know what it is but doubt he needs a partner. Creating artificial fighters was the best solution, not that I know how many there are now…hmph, rather disgusting if you ask me”. He knew whatever they’d create wouldn’t be like Viral, but they could still try if it meant winning the war against the creatures. “They probably know the truth but don’t care! So what if our methods are a little…aggressive, Korian just wants to be the top Saiyan and just sees the monsters as a pest!”

Shu could barely look around the room without feeling trapped and confused, his head still in pain after his last transformation. His body was still sore and weak, but scampering into the corner proved he still had strength in him somewhere. From what he could tell he was in a small hospital room completely isolated from anyone, but that didn’t help him after what he dreamed and knowing it was a reality not long ago. Letting out a light whine he pressed himself into the corner, trying to isolate himself from all of these thoughts and fears before he let out a squeak when he realised someone was there. At first he thought he had been captured again after hurting all his friends, feeling completely terrified that he was going to be taken before instead the woman decided to try and help him stand, telling him his location. Staring up at her as he was helped to his feet he let out a pining whine, trying to weakly cuddle against the nurse. “…Did bad…bad things! Friends hurt because I-…” he paused, trying to raise his arms up to hold onto the nurse but he was too weak, “I bad little Shu! Very bad! Bad Shu hurt friends! Brother hurt by Shu…where brother? Bad Shu, making hurt…”

Viral was not optimistic about telling everyone what happened back then, knowing it would just sound like an excuse for his capture. It had been so long since he spoke up about it and telling them what he had intended just to make them feel better felt like it wouldn’t work in the long run. It would make them sound like he was fooling them into some complicated lie he had been working out over the year. “For all they know I was just taken and adding new information into the mix would make me sound guilty no matter what I say. If they already guessed I was taken because I let them but don’t speak up about it, that’s fine with me”. He felt he was being backed into a corner over this, that he had to go out and tell them everything he knew about what happened. Not having the biggest chunk of confidence left in him he looked to Vegeta, staring at him as he tried to convince him to think otherwise. He really didn’t know what to make of the whole notion, finding it hard to come up with an excuse. Growling lowly he looked away, slowly rubbing his head. “I am…not sure. Even if I told everyone on the field that day that I was going to spare them the trouble, they would’ve tried to come after me. They would never accept my decision to become one of them, to allow them to use my genetic makeup to their advantage. There was no other way to stop the attacks other than through bargaining but even then, what kind of solution is that? I’d still be gone! But I wasn’t of much use while I was on Earth either. The Earth offered nothing for me and I still took the bullet to try and save it! What kind of sacrifice is that? That’s not heroic! That’s just…me taking a free ticket off that planet…”
