"That's the spirit! I won't let you get hurt though, I've got your back buddy," Takeshi reminded with a smirk, "Like I said, stick with me and everything will work out just fine, those things won't know what hit them." All of their duo attacks they'd learned from Kai and Choi, all the training, they needed to be together for that. Besides given how meek Shu generally was anyways he wasn't so sure his little brother was up for fighting on his own, all the more reason for them to stick together. "I bet you're excited to use that staff of yours though, you haven't gotten to yet, you know? It's just been sitting in our room since Uuonoe," Takeshi pointed out, "So first time, and these things are good a practice as anything, right? Smack 'em around all day and you don't have to feel bad."

That... Wasn't quite what Orion had in mind when he'd suggested working together: himself and Eris, Viral and Yumi. It seemed obvious given they were already partners respectively yet if that's what his commanding officer thought was best. Nodding in agreement he set both women down and kept himself between them, one of his ears twitching in annoyance as he could just feel their glares burrowing through him at one another. "You two have to stop this, it's not the time or the place for such squabbles..." he muttered to no avail, glancing either which way to see the women still at it. With luck they would hold off on attacking one another until the mission was over, he'd hate to have to be separating the two of them all night.

"But maybe it's the same...? If every planet's different then... I mean... It's not your fault if you don't get it right away, right? Just like... Like how we can't recognize someone right away if we've never met them." It took a while to get used to how everyone's energy felt since joining this group, now he could feel the slightest spark and name it easily enough. Haku didn't really get how planets or plants had energies all their own but he assumed they worked the same way. Hearing Vegeta make a call to them for a direction to head he took to the air when T'charrl did, the spirit surprisingly having no issue clinging onto him. "Well we have all day, I think time's not a problem!" Haku joked, smiling slightly as he glanced down at the grass racing below them. He wasn't sure if he wanted to have time to relax or just find the things and get it over with, he wasn't particularly keen on fighting.

The plateau provided just the vantage point Vegeta had been hoping to find. Nearly two stories up and with ample space for them to stretch out they could see well past the expanse of grass below, off to what looked almost like a more Saharan landscape in the distance. Hard to say whether the monsters were in that direction or not or if they were moving away from the creatures, but he had a theory; there seemed to be no natives on this world save for the animals, the arrival of people would surely alert the beasts. With luck they could find some and track the rift that way, granted that hinged on whether or not they found anything. "I think it's only fair we put it up to a vote, where we head next. We appear to be in the middle of a massive field, and there are plains further on ahead. The question is then whether we go the way we have been, double back, or try a different route."

"Let's just keep going straight, why bother changing it now?" Takeshi asked as he sat down on the thin grass with an 'oomph', "I don't know about heading through a desert or whatever though, it would really suck."

"Well if we start going every which way we're bound to get lost, or walk in circles. I think either keep going the way we are or head back," Yumi offered up, looking over the edge and in the direction of the ship. Besides they didn't know what else might be on this world yet, wandering around probably wasn't the safest thing to be doing.

Haku didn't have the slightest idea, he'd hate to make a suggestion and have it backfire. He honestly figured going into the woods might be the best way to find the creatures, if they had to eat that was. More animals in there than the fields probably. "Uh... I don't care, I guess. Any way is fine by me," he muttered with a shrug before looking to T'charrl, "Maybe... We should head towards trees though? We'll need food eventually..."
