"It was a [i]legitimate[/i] request Sayomi. I'm certainly not going to tell someone no just because their claims might be unfounded," Korian said defensively, almost pouting. No one but his Lieutenant could get to him like this, and he was certain she knew it. All of the crew knew it as well, there were snickers and giggles in earnest at the show they were getting. It had certainly been a complete bust, that mission, but it had all been done in good intent. "You can't blame me for that one... I didn't know... And I haven't even shared with you the creature I fought earlier, did I?" Now this might give his occasional farfetched mission some weight, albeit it could also end up making them stay here a bit longer. "Leto was tackling some beast outside moments ago. I can't say what it was, but I'd wager it was a native of this world. In any case, I noticed something peculiar about it when I was fighting it, and when it died. There was no blood at all, regardless of how I struck it. And when it died it didn't simply collapse, it disappeared into smoke. I've never seen a creature do that before, and I've been on a fair many planets." Rather than perhaps focus on this new curiosity Korian was now more concerned with defending himself and the missions that he assigned his people. Smiling smugly he leaned in, pointing at Sayomi, "If creatures can do that, then surely a magical blob isn't so farfetched? The galaxy is full of yet explored places, so who are we to say what is ridiculous and not?" Leto was fairly emotional over the split still, that was clear. He adored the Princes as they were the ones who spared him, ultimately giving him the new lease on life that would lead to his joining the Rebellion. On the other hand he was fiercely loyal to Korian, whom he considered to be a man amongst men and a true leader, nothing like the sham of a king the Saiyans worshiped. To see those two parties separated was just downright disappointing. Regaining his senses when T'charrl spoke the Yulian looked over, a little surprise showing on his face. "We try not to, yes. Anyone can kill, but a true man beats his opponent and then shows mercy! It's the reason I stand here still, because I was given another chance!" Leto smiled cheerfully at that thought, striking a pose randomly as he often did. "Many people do not wish to serve the king, and treason means death. But if they are defeated by us then they can join us, and so we gain allies and them freedom. It's a wondrous exchange; manpower for a new life, surely that's worth letting former enemies live!" To prove a point he stepped out of T'charrl's view, gesturing to the workers and soldiers around them. "Many of these people are formerly of the Saiyan military or were under Saiyan rule. To them the rebellion is a chance to escape oppression, and to atone for what they had done. Now do you see the point in letting our opponents live? Is it not a manly way of gaining allies, to be sympathetic?" Takeshi was perfectly confident Shu could pull his part off. Training or not the kid was skilled, he just didn't know it yet. Given enough encouragement it was possible he'd be every bit as competent with Ki as his older brother or any of their friends. Or... Maybe not, but more so than he believed himself to be. When he blasted off his Kamehameha wave Takeshi was delighted to see a second one out of the corner of his eye, both speeding right at the creature. Poor thing never had a chance, and within a literal flash it was enveloped in energy, all but vanishing from sight under a massive cloud of smoke and dust. Hurrying to catch his brother he grabbed hold of Shu, immediately turning them around and leaning over slightly as a wall of debris scattered around them. Once that had settled the brothers turned around, getting a glimpse of the fairly large crater now sitting where the beast, and temple had been. It was something fairly surprising too in that in blowing apart another mountain they seemed to have broken into a high lake. Water now poured down from the cracked rock, cascading in a waterfall into the crater below which was beginning to fill. Even with the dust in the air Takeshi could make out a rainbow shinning just above the crest of the waterfall, giving the gradually forming body of water quite a nice look. He couldn't help but smile, it was a nice way to end off a fantastic explosion. "Well look at that! We blew that thing sky high AND made something! We're pretty good aren't we?" Takeshi grinned cheerfully at Shu, freeing up one hand to playfully ruffle his brother's hair. That fight had been awfully easy, albeit they had come into the end of it. Viral and Yumi had done all the hard work, and it had definitely paved the way for them. No matter, he was happy all the same just to get to blow something up, it meant they could actually fight, if only a little. Still grasping his sword in the hand under Shu the Saiyan moved them down to the nearest flat spot, setting his brother down first before looking at his blade. Surprisingly it wasn't dented or anything in spite of smacking against that hard plating, he was impressed with how dense the blade must be. "Nice Kamehameha, you really pulled it off," Takeshi added, smiling as he sheathed his sword. Looking at Shu proudly he reached over again, wiping a bit of dust off of his brother's shirt before looking down at himself. "And now we both really need a bath..." "But you can do it, so I'm sure you'll be able to teach me. Besides, he's always so... By the book and strict when it comes to teaching things. It's no fun, and I'd rather you do it anyways." Viral wasn't quite the person she imagined would take her for a joyride, but Yumi would be lying if she said she didn't intend on doing something like that. Knowing Vegeta he'd not want to partake in something like that, so she could surprise Viral and maybe even cheer him up a little. Or... Frighten him and make him label her as insane, on the far end of the spectrum. Hopefully not the latter, it would make spending time with him quite difficult. The sudden explosion and bright flash made Yumi awfully confused for a moment until she realized what had happened, rolling her eyes exasperatedly. Those two certainly knew how to overdo it if nothing else, she really doubted Kamehameha waves were necessary. Hearing Viral express his discontent Yumi looked at him sadly, managing a small smile. "They only finished it so fast because you beat it so bad already. So they owe their easy win to you, you did all the hard work."
