Geode looked at Oz with frustration and humiliation. It was true that he could not harm anyone while he was a ghostly apparition, but it was also a fact that Oz couldn't do anything to [i]force him[/i] anywhere. Not unless he flooded him with more Ki, but that was more opt to kill him at this point. Either way, Geode was unsatisfied. He looked down at the crumbling remains of Gol-Ino, and knelt down.

	"You're bold to be giving [i]me[/i] orders, boy," He complained, suddenly transferring his three cores into Gol-Ino's body. The translucent  figure regains its shape, cracks and holes fading as its body lit up. Although Geode had no power while in a physical body, it made it much easier for him to speak, move, and interact with the world around him. Gol Ino's body stood up, and flexed its various appendages, non-aggressively. He turned to face Oz and sighed. "I will go of my own will. There is nothing left for me here, and death befits only the cowardly and insignificant." It was clear that his morals hadn't changed in the slightest, but he clearly didn't want to sink to the bottom of the ocean, sulking for all eternity. Whatever his motives, he would go along with Oz and his friends. For now.
