Still Krom refused to speak? He was no longer a subordinate of his King, he was in effect a prisoner in fact: answering these questions was no longer a question of if he wanted to, he needed to. Narrowing his eyes as the Elite continued to deny him he watched as Krom backed off, his mouth taught as he listened to more excuses. "It is only off limits because you refuse to answer me. You no longer answer to Yamate, realize that and tell me what I need to know. I will not ask again." His voice didn't raise in volume but it adopted a certain firmness to it, his eyes burning with anger. When Krom tried to turn it around on him Aito snapped slightly, his Ki rising where he stood and exuding almost a sort of pressure around the area. The ground at his feet cracked from the sheer force of it and as he slowly began to approach Krom each step created a small indent in the earth. "Viral was born like this, and he is stronger for it. You are forcing changes onto people, turning them into weapons to ensure your own survival. THAT is selfish and unethical, I will not allow it. Now answer me, where is the project being conducted?" "If you don't want to get bored then keep bouncing, it's keeping me plenty entertained!" Takeshi laughed, watching his brother as he bounded about energetically, "And yeah back to the base. Unless they're using what I want to use we shouldn't have a problem getting it. You'll have fun with it buddy I'm sure." It would be something entirely new for the little guy and probably even a little intimidating at first, but he could see Shu having fun with it too. "And yeah, it'll be a bit buddy, but we'll get there. Just gotta be a little patient, you know?" Maybe he ought to come up with some back up plan just in case that didn't work out. But what else was there to do on Uuonoe anyways? He'd not seen a whole lot in the city, and doing the same old stuff wasn't going to cut it. Scratching at his head in thought Takeshi paused when he picked up a slight spike in energy, his eyes widening slightly as that spike turned into a sizable increase. What the heck was that?! "Uh... Kind of? I mean there are some strong people who are small too," Haku mentioned with a nod towards the brothers, "But yeah, I guess the big ones are in charge. That could change though! Doesn't always have to be the big, mean ones." Wishful thinking that was, he didn't know how the heck anyone would take the King down. Even if he was supposedly a good guy, doing what he did to protect everyone, it still didn't make him very liked. "Glad you're healing though! And uh... Maybe you need some food too? A nice big lunch and then a nap would be great I'd bet. You could always go and ask-" He was about to say Aito or Vegeta, but the sudden sharp burst of power nearby made Haku clam up awfully quick. Paling slightly he looked towards the rear of the house and tried to guess what was going on, not recognizing it as Krom's power; if someone screwed up they were usually beaten or intimidated, he'd grown fairly used to experiencing what the Elites could do. But this wasn't an Elite, so who was it? The doctor? "Uh... What's going on out there?" Kabocha just bit his tongue on that one, though he did cringe back slightly when Kai made the tentacle gesture. Easy for the twin to say all of this but he seriously doubted Kai would take it either, unless he was incredibly desperate. And as for new things he'd gone and defected from the military, that was a pretty new thing wasn't it? Rolling his eyes he tried to divert the conversation back to a change of power on Kortal, still believing they were better off with the King out of power. "I'll take the uncertainty, at least if I die now I know I died doing what I wanted, not what some egomaniac told me to do," Kabocha answered plainly, "And I know, and it's probably not up to us. But can we really do worse than Yamate? I mean come on, you're going to sit there and tell me you wouldn't want someone else in power? Heck it could even be one of us! With all the things we've seen we know a little bit about what makes a good leader, don't you think? We could do a better job!" Kind of crazy to imagine even as he said it, that someone in this very room could lead the Saiyans. Now that he thought about it maybe not. Like the others he soon picked up on a sudden power flux, his eyes darting right back to the rear of the house in surprise. Something was going on out there... Probably best they stayed put. "Father...? What in the world...?" Why was Aito showing off his power? Just what in the hell was going on outside? What bothered Vegeta even more was first Krom had disappeared from view and then his father, now the power surge. Clearly whatever was being discussed wasn't going over well if this was happening now. Should they go out to help? No, if they were going to fight then throwing themselves into the mix was only going to cause problems. Exchanging a worried look with Yumi he moved to the back door, placing his hand on a handle but keeping where he was. "Viral's still out there... He's not going to do anything, right?"
