Aito was hoping to hear something more crucial from Krom, rather than mostly information he was already aware of or could draw from looking at the facts he had. So far this "interrogation" had been little but a back and forth, frankly a waste of time. There was a little bit at the end though that struck him as intriguing, revealing a fair bit about the Elite in such few words. "So it sounds like your loyalty is not to the King, but to your people. You only abide by Yamate's rulings to preserve yourself and them as well. Interesting..." So Krom fancied himself a man of the people then did he? What might happen then if he was given the unthinkable, such as to carry out an attack against their own people? Aito couldn't see the King being so foolish as to demand such an order, but it would be curious to see how Krom took that. 

"I still stand by what I said... You can't expect a group of children to adequately train themselves for battle, certainly not against actual warriors. And I've never known an exam to potentially kill someone, though I suppose therein lies the difference in our expectations and experience." At any rate he was growing tired of this chatter, it was clear that Krom wasn't going to really speak with him over anything, meaning it would be up to Korian to get the information. "Reap what you sow, that's all I can say. I won't condemn you before the rebels and further any notion they have of executing you, but you played the villain and may pay the price for it. I'm certain no one in this war was looking to die, but then they didn't have much choice, did they?" On that note he turned and left the room, not saying a word to the rebels stationed outside as he went.  

All of Shu's friends had made quite the recovery given how beaten they were coming in, even his alien friend was showing signs of improvement. It may be another day or two until people could be discharged, but it was nice to see no one had lost their life here. "Maybe a little later we can go pay them a visit if you'd like. We just want to keep people here to make certain nothing else is wrong," the nurse explained, giving the little Saiyan a sad look when he heard about his brother, "I'm sorry Shu, but I'm sure he'll come back if he's always around for you. He seemed like he had something bothering him, so maybe he left to check into it? I'm not sure, but he'll come back." Given everyone's injuries, Takeshi was the least injured of the bunch so it wasn't overly surprising he was up and about already. That being said, he was supposed to spend a day in the hospital just to be safe, and it had barely been a few hours before he'd gone and left. "You hurt all over? Well... I do have some painkillers I can offer you, that will ease it. You didn't really sustain any injuries, and I'm not sure what caused your soreness, but..."

"Shu? Shu are you in here?" The door was opened up in the middle of their conversation and Yumi stepped in, looking rather distraught as she glanced around the room. Her head was partially bandaged up and she had several wraps on her body covering wounds, otherwise however she seemed okay. Spotting the little boy she let out a sigh of relief, hurrying over only to be stopped by the nurse.

"Please Yumi, you should be resting!" the nurse said nervously, holding up her hands, "You were hit in the head and should be taking it easy right now." 

"I'm fine, really. A little sore but fine," Yumi responded with a smile, "I just want to see Shu, that's all. Please? I only need 5 minutes." The nurse seemed to hesitate for a moment, glancing between the aforementioned Saiyan and her before ultimately nodding her head with a sigh. "Great, thank you! I'll be quick, I promise!" Stepping past the nurse she stood before Shu, looking at him dotingly as she leaned over and wrapped both arms around him, pulling him close in a hug. She'd been so worried about her youngest friend ever since she had seen him on the shuttle, out cold and beaten. She'd feared he'd taken the worst of the hits, but seeing him now he looked relatively unharmed, if shaken. Easing back from the hug, Yumi took a seat beside Shu, keeping an arm around his shoulders as she could just feel the anxiety pouring off of him. "I'm glad you're okay now Shu, you had everyone really worried earlier. Are they being nice to you in here? Want me to go get you some food or something?"

"It's not the end of the story, don't be absurd. It's a bump in the road, I won't argue that, but it's hardly the conclusion to your tale," Vegeta answered, smiling slightly as he shook his head, "It's like those stories that mother and father used to read to us. The hero always faces some kind of trial or difficulty, something they have to overcome, but they always win in the end. As it stands, you're the hero in this story, and now you just need to overcome this tribulation, with some help of course." After learning of the sacrifice he'd made no one was truly more deserving of the term "hero" than Viral, not a single person who knew the truth would argue that much. Once the others learned of it he could only imagine the support they would be giving him, not that they were exactly denying him support now either, it just wasn't all that active. "Well it's simple really. We just find what you enjoy, and we start doing more of.. Whatever it might be," Vegeta said simply, "Or... We can try another route and go for doing some work to simply keep you occupied and get your mind off of things. If we take the latter, I'm sure you've noticed all of the construction going on? I figured perhaps you and I can go get our hands dirty and help around, do a little honest work for the day and try helping around, with whatever they might need. How's that sound?"
