Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

"You're not a monster Shu, okay? No little brother of mine is a monster. After we kick their asses today we'll come back and I'll help you learn to handle that, got it?" Takeshi asked, smiling reassuringly as he reached out and gently poked Shu's forehead with his forefinger, "Besides... Monster can mean more than one thing, you know? You're not a monster." Now someone who killed a bunch of people, that was a monster. Someone who killed a bunch of people for the sake of their single sibling was pretty bad too, and he had done such a thing for just about a year. If anyone really deserved that label here then it was him, not Shu. One way or another he would keep his little brother out of the fighting, even if it meant going as far as knocking him out or something. It wasn't so much a question of whether they could beat their father and Krom, what with everyone here, but how hurt everyone might get; Shu was bound to be targeted, as was he, but Takeshi wouldn't let them get a hand on his sibling. "Look... I'll be at your side the entire time, okay? We can do it like we did on Namek, you stay on my back and blast 'em, how's that sound? They'll never lay a finger on you."

Kabocha had a brilliant if not cruel idea to save their collective hides, an idea that he was sure wouldn't fly outside this small circle of theirs. Nonetheless there was a chance it could work, and while people would be no doubt pissed at him it was likely their best shot of making it through the battle alive. "T'charrl can handle it, he's strong, and Shu is a ball of mayhem we can use. Just make sure he's pissed at either Yamate or Krom before he shifts and boom, we've got ourselves a rampant Oozaru on our side." There was a slight worry the idea could totally backfire of course and Shu turn on them, but then they had Takeshi or Yumi to help stop that. It wasn't foolproof, but he rather liked that idea as opposed to just throwing themselves at the King and hoping to beat him. Glancing at Choi as he spoke up, Kabocha gave a roll of his eyes before shrugging, sending a glance to T'charrl as well before back to the twins. "I don't know, maybe? He's changed back before though, he could do it again. And look Choi, we're all basically soldiers, soldiers are weapons. And what do you care if it means we make it out alive? Or do you mean to tell me you'd rather fight the King or Krom yourself?"

Yumi felt a pit gnawing at her stomach now, but like the others she was moving towards the ship. How were they going to a man like the King, especially when he had help with him? She had never really met Krom but vaguely knew the name, aware enough to know he was a thorn in her friends' sides. Vegeta didn't need to say how significant a win would be today, but she wasn't overly confident they'd be that fortunate. Letting out a soft sigh she frowned at picking up everyone's anxiety, glancing over at Shu and then Haku, seeing both quite uneasy and even trembling a little. With a sympathetic smile she changed course and walked over between the two of them, placing a hand on each of their shoulders. "Hey... We're going to be alright out there you two. We've got our friends to back us up, and there's strength in numbers, right? As long as we watch each other's backs nothing will go wrong." There was seven of them, they should be more than fine with so many people at their side. Stopping at the rear of the shuttle Yumi stood before Shu, placing both her hands on his shoulders and leaning down, placing a light kiss on his forehead. "You're a brave little man Shu, and it's okay to be scared, everyone is right now. But don't forget we're all here with you, nothing will happen so long as we can help it," Yumi said, looking up at everyone else, "That goes for all of you, let's make sure to keep each other safe!"

That was a wonderful sentiment coming from Yumi, but Takeshi sincerely doubted it'd work out: This whole mess started because they couldn't keep each other safe, what had changed between now and then? There were more people to worry about, Viral wasn't even going to be around this time and Shu was seriously freaking out before they were even on their way out. Alone he stood no chance against his father or Krom and he knew that, yet he'd still try to find a way to get at least one alone, make it easier on the others. Somehow he'd find a way to beat whoever he got matched with, so long as he could keep Shu out of harm's way. Putting on a smile for his sibling's sake, the older boy climbed into the shuttle, passing flying this time around as he figured his brother needed company in the back. Finding a seat he gave it a patting beside himself, waiting for Shu to sit and immediately putting an arm around his shoulders once he was seated. "Just think too, after we beat them today we'll be free, we can do whatever we want. I'm thinking we head back to Earth, maybe I can teach you some stuff and we can build you a room in my house, how's that sound? You won't have to sleep on the couch anymore."

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

"You did a lot before then too though! You and Viral did really well on Namek, I don't care what anyone else says," Yumi said, "You're plenty strong even now, I'm positive of that, and I'll prove it when we get to train!" It had been ages since she and T'charrl did much of anything together, a shame since she really enjoyed spending time with him. In a way she felt kind of bad about it, having been one of the first to meet him only to never hang around, but that was going to change! Starting this afternoon she'd see to it that the two of them got some quality training time together, just the two of them. "A field would be good too, we'd have tons of room to move around then," Yumi replied cheerfully, "Wherever you want to go is fine by me, just let me know!" Sadly this conversation would have to wait, as Vegeta had come out and delivered some rather grim news shortly thereafter. It was odd, feeling everyone's mood just plummet like that, it made her chest hurt and her ears fold down woefully. The King and Krom... Why them? They always fought Elites up until now, what would bring those two all the way out here? And how in the world did they slip past all the rebels?

Takeshi felt awful after hearing those news, yet he couldn't waste time being upset or worrying with Shu having a small breakdown. His little brother needed him, and it was his job to do everything possible to make things okay for him. What could he even say to reassure him though? This was their father they were talking about, the strongest Saiyan alive and such a bad guy he messed up his own children. Pulling Shu into an embrace he made a sorry attempt at consoling him, a bit dejected when his words fell completely on deaf ears. "You are strong buddy, you're as strong as me or Viral or anyone else here, honest," Takeshi said gently, giving Shu's hair another ruffle as he tried to smile, "And you are a good Saiyan. Why aren't you, because you're not a monster like most of us? Like I am?" He loathed to say it aloud, but Takeshi had come to realize he was a lot more like their father than he liked to admit. Both of them could snap and kill someone, and often times they did, and they'd do so without hesitation for whatever they felt was important to them; Yamate had his agenda to protect, for him it was Shu. "Listen, I'm not going to let anything happen to you, got me? I'll fight father alone if I have to, I'm pretty strong too, you know? You'll be safe, I swear."

"I don't want to be the one telling you all this, but we can't wait around to get moving. This call came in a while ago, and Numina was already under attack by then. If we're going to help then we have to mobilize and move now." Vegeta added, frowning as he watched everyone start talking amongst themselves and looking worried. Shu in particular was having a bad time of it, looking like he was about to freak out. They never did have a chance to work with him, sending him into this was no doubt going to be horrible. Sending a sympathetic look in the young Saiyan's way he glanced back at the ship, wondering how Viral must be this moment. The Beastman knew full well what was happening but absolutely could not go, and knowing him that was driving him mad. With one hand on his hip he ran a hand through his hair, wishing right now they could get another call saying the rebels were going to handle the situation, but that was wishful thinking. "We've got the shuttle already prepared for you all, and its stocked with medicine and supplies if anything should happen... I'm sorry, but we need to do this, the King has to be stopped here. All of you be careful out there and come back to Uuonoe."

Well what a fine mess this day was turning out to be. To fight Krom and the King, and whoever else might be with them, seriously? There was plenty to be gained from winning the fight, but that was if they could succeed. Kabocha didn't want to fail, but he had serious doubts about having any chance of defeating those two. Still... If they won then he'd rise back to prominence in Saiyan society, maybe even higher if he was one of the ones to bring down the King. Who knows, maybe it'd even be enough to get out of his father's household and make a name for himself, he'd like that. Daydreaming aside however Kabocha couldn't ignore the sinking pit that was his stomach, or his clammy hands or tight throat. This wouldn't be an easy battle, and someone could well end up dead out there. "Heh... Maybe we can get Shu to change and just get them both, what do you think?" he asked, glancing between the twins, "Or see if T'charrl can change. They're really strong when they do, we might not even have to fight."

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

"I don't agree with that, I think you're really strong. You and Viral killed that monster didn't you? None of us could do it, so I think that makes you powerful," Yumi remarked, smiling kindly, "Energy or just raw strength, power is power. And you've got it by the truckloads T'charrl." She was a bit jealous of his ability honestly, wishing that she was so strong that she could protect her friends like that. She'd still try of course regardless of her power, but it would be nice to have the strength to back it up. "Maybe after we finish with whatever this is we can go ahead and train, if you'd like. We could even go find a nice place out in the woods to train, no reason to go into the stuffy ship." They were on a lovely world here on Uuonoe, it would be a shame to squander it and waste their day inside. Yumi was very excited now to potentially have a training partner, rather than doing it all herself. Sadly however it looked like things would have to wait, as Vegeta had finally arrived and was looking awfully grim. She didn't know the reason for it of course, yet she didn't need to just given how he looked and felt: their reason for being called here was an awful one, and part of her almost hoped he wasn't going to even share it with them.

Takeshi hadn't said it, but he was in the same boat as Kabocha initially. They weren't some private military force to be called on at a moment's notice, they certainly weren't official rebels either: to him it almost felt like they were being treated as mercenaries, that was something he never wanted to be designated as again. Sure things sounded bad for Numina, and yeah he felt bad, but it really wasn't their problem. If Uuonoe came under attack they'd defend it again, but there was no reason for them to go running to defend another world. Takeshi was just as soon to tell Vegeta to forget it as well until their friend turned to him and Shu, dropping the last bomb on them. Eyes widening slightly he stared at his friend for a moment, turning his head slightly to Shu when he started panicking a bit. Giving him a pained, sympathetic look he squatted down, placing a hand on Shu's head and giving his hair a gentle rub, "You won't have to fight him buddy, don't worry. I'll fight him, you guys can just hang back."

"That's not going to work... Yamate isn't the only one there," Vegeta added, his tone somber as he looked at the brothers, "Krom was also reported to be with him, and there may still be others with them. No one knows why the King or Krom decided to show up there and now but that's the case, we have to do something. If we can somehow manage to beat them on Numina we could end this whole war, save countless lives and prevent further fighting. Maybe we don't care about the planet they're on, but we should care about that much." Though he loathed to think about it in terms of revenge that may well be their biggest reason for going out after Yamate; every person present had been adversely affected somehow by the Saiyan's actions, save for T'charrl. With so many grudges it was only natural that revenge was going to play a part in all of this, there was no denying that. Letting out a sigh he ran a hand through his hair, looking at the rest of the group as he let the two brothers take it in. "I don't have to say how dangerous this is for us, or the risk that we run by going into this fight. Everything we've been doing though has to been to make that bastard pay for what he's done to us, and now's a good a chance as any to make that happen. I called everyone here because I figured you could all go, support one another and bring those two down for good. I can't join you because of Viral and neither can my father, but you all should be fine."

"Yeah, fine fighting the King of Saiyans, if I've ever heard a bigger sack of shit than that..." Kabocha said, stuffing his hands into his pockets and kicking at the ground in annoyance. "Fine, I'll go, but I'm not doing it to save Numina or whatever. Once that jerk is gone my family can return home, and I can get back to enjoying life like I should be. No more bumming around like we have been." He had fortune and power back home, or he would once Yamate was out of the picture. Not to say he'd never see these people again because he'd like to, but he had a lot going for him on Kortal and couldn't just leave that all behind. It was easy to stand here and say they'd fight Yamate too, but how many times had he been before the King and dreaded having to fight the man? There was definitely a part of him fearing the fight to come, knowing full well if they weren't careful they could end up dead here.

This was crap, why did they have to go and fight father? Every time they should be relaxing and starting to get better something came up, it never failed. The fact that Shu was going to be put at serious risk really ticked off Takeshi, and he nearly wanted to tell his brother to remain here while he went. Knowing his sibling though he'd not want Takeshi to go on his own, which led them to a big problem; their friends couldn't go fight by themselves, neither of them would allow it, yet neither really wanted to face off against their father either. "If he tries hurting you Shu I'll kill him, I swear it," Takeshi said gently, pulling Shu close and resting his forehead on his sibling's head, closing his eyes, "No one is going to do anything while we're there, I won't let them." Between everyone here they could probably win, there was no reason for Shu to have to even get involved. He hated to have their friends at risk too, but he knew full well he wasn't even remotely a match for their father alone, and he couldn't be sure about Krom.

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

"And what do you suppose I've been trying to do since we arrived here Krom, hm? They've refused every attempt I've made so far and prefer their own annihilation over submitting. I hate to put this world to ruin, but they're leaving me no other choice." Scavenging as they were was deplorable, and they could happen upon something that should not be in their hands. So far it seemed like they were just getting small scraps, outdated weaponry and various bits, but Yamate wouldn't chance these aliens coming across something important. That aside, even if they were to leave now then they were signing their own death warrants anyways, being left on their own to defend themselves which clearly was working so very well for them now. "Of course he will, he's not an idiot. He'll wait for his greatest chance of success, he's always worked that way," Yamate remarked, smiling slightly amused at the mention of his children, "Takeshi is a loose cannon waiting to explode, Shu does whatever he says without fail. If we can get those boys to see our side and do as I say then Korian wouldn't have a chance. It's only a matter of time before they do come to our side of it, you'll see."

---

Takeshi was definitely annoyed at being dragged away like this, especially since it got in the way of their plans. He and Shu had a ton to do today and now here they were with everyone else, waiting for Vegeta to show up and fill them in. Such a pain, it had better be something important and not one of his stupid self-imposed curfews for them. "What's scary about it? We're just standing here with friends, nothing scary about that," the older boy remarked, smiling as he leaned over and gently nudged Shu, "It's probably nothing buddy, we'll just hear what Vegeta has to say then we'll get back to playing and training, okay?" So long as this meeting of theirs didn't take too long. After having seen all the neat stuff that Kai and Choi could do together in a fight Takeshi had the mind to make up a trick for him and Shu now; coordinating anything with the little guy was a nightmare, but if they worked at it hard enough maybe they could pull it off.

"That's good, I'm glad to hear it!" Yumi responded cheerfully, smiling as she folded her hands behind her back, "Sorry I haven't been by to see you, been kind of busy with Viral and training. Haven't done much of that recently, need to stay in shape though with all of you powerhouses around here, right?" It was impossible to say when the next big fight might be, but she'd make damn sure she was ready to take part in it. When their group had been small, just her and the boys, she was almost on par with the two of them; the discrepancy between herself and the boys, not to mention everyone else was so large now she was almost a non-factor. For someone who spent most of their life training and learning martial arts that wouldn't stand, she had to get stronger. Realizing she was on a bit of a tirade in her own head she smiled at T'charrl again, "We should spend some time together soon, maybe you could help me train? I don't think we're ever done that together before, it'd be fun!" The sound of a metal door retracting drew her focus up to the ship hull, watching curiously as Vegeta finally appeared and started down the stairs. Where she had been smiling a moment before her expression quickly did a 180, looking at her friend concerned over the look of uncertainty and worry he bore himself. "Vegeta? What's wrong...? What's happened?"

That his fears from earlier would actually be confirmed, that they were going to have to go into this fight to face such a threat... Vegeta loathed what he was about to do, but they had little choice in the matter: if Yamate was not stopped then he could move on to another world, more people would suffer and they would just sit here and wait for the King to get to Uuonoe. Was that their plan, or would they take the fight to him? If there was the slightest chance they could defeat the man here, end the war and stop the violence then they should take it. Fighting such a foe was hardly desirable, yet he saw no other course of action but for them to go. Stepping out of the ship he felt all eyes on him, keeping his gaze down as he descended the steps. Only when Yumi spoke to him did he look up, meeting her concerned look steadily. He should tell the entire group, not just her, seeing as chances were everyone here was going anyways.

"About an hour ago we received a distress call from Numina, a nearby world. Or rather Uuonoe did, and the call was passed along to me on the ship," Vegeta began, looking around at the others, "The call was distorted at first so information was scarce, but their world was under attack. I don't know what their deal is or who they are, but they clearly needed help, and naturally the Uuonians turned to us for help..."

"Tch... We're not some private army they can send wherever we are needed," Kabocha remarked disdainfully, frowning as he crossed his arms, "Sorry they're being attacked, but why don't the rebels here go? It's not our job to try saving every planet, that's theirs. Besides we just got here."

"That would leave the world without any defenders, considering they don't know if we're staying or not. If there's a chance that Uuonoe may be targeted they want to have their troops here, protecting the city. And besides... The rebels can't fight this enemy, they'd be walking into a kill zone if they even tried." None of your standard fare of soldier stood a remote chance, it had to be them. Their only alternative was maybe Korian and Sayomi, but they were much too far away to reach Numina in any reasonable time. Letting out a sigh under his breath, Vegeta rubbed his forehead before looking directly at Shu and Takeshi, "You two and the others have to go and fight, there's no one else who can do it. The one responsible for the attacks on Numina is your father, King Yamate."

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

"Native or not it's evident they've been living here for some time, so it is their home. Whether they're the actual residents matters little anyways, it doesn't change the fact that they're at fault and must be made to step in line or pay the price." The war was enough of a headache without scum like this stealing from the downtrodden, that was simply inexcusable. There was the small matter of their stealing from the Saiyans as well, but that was only a small part of the overall problem here. Yamate had ulterior motives by coming here to Numina, ones that were based solely on a gamble and could very well turn out to be a bust. Had he shared this with Krom it might cause problems, he knew full well what the risks were of his being here for such a petty reason. "We'll find out I suppose, won't we? Best start looking, see what we can find."

Taking to the sky he started heading south, determined to find someone else here to try and work out a deal. There was no reason everyone here had to die, yet if they continued to resist then soldiers would be lost, and those left behind would be made to pay the price. Surely these people weren't that suicidal, right? What possible reason could they be so vehemently denying them? "He is stubborn, but he's also not a fool. This war has been costly for both sides and that won't change if we continue. The entire galaxy is becoming weaker for this struggle, his rebellion is doing far more harm than good at this point. If he can be made to see how detrimental this is then he'll lay down his arms." The man would be made to pay, of that there was no doubt, but at the very least their resources could be focused on more pressing matters. Without divulging the full details of their predicament though he doubted he could make Korian yield, which likely meant that one of them was going to have to beat the other and hope to hell what remained could withstand what came next.

"Put us on the spot like that... As if we could say no..." Vegeta grumbled, frowning as he watched the display resume its blank state. He supposed he shouldn't be all that surprised they were being called on, the war was still raging around them. Even so it'd be courteous to let them try helping themselves before anyone else, they had their own matters to attend to. And what about the mention of 'king', was that something they should risk? Obviously Viral was not going to go, nor could himself or their father as they were busy. If Yamate was there as he feared then that posed an even bigger dilemma for their group; Takeshi and Shu were likely the strongest out of everyone, even if they were a bit too daft to fight with their full strength. Sending them into any battle would be ideal, yet with this potential problem doing so would be a terrible mistake. What of the others? Was it right to place them in the path of the King over trying to save some world? For a fight like this it would be best to have all their pieces on the board for the greatest chance of success, but that was also the riskiest. "I want you to get back in touch with them and try figuring out more information," Vegeta said, glancing down at the operator at the controls, "Please try and figure out what we're up against, I'll go ahead and collect everyone."

Takeshi was kind of pissed they had been called back to the ship, having been told they had the day to do whatever they pleased. Since T'charrl seemed to be spending time with Haku and Kiton was being looked at by Aito it had just been him and Shu for the day, they had a whole list of things to do for fun. The pair of them had only just been off to go explore the woods when Vegeta got in touch with them, and reluctantly they had turned around to get back. Figuring it was something perhaps to do with Viral the older boy was surprised to find everyone else there as well: Yumi, T'charrl, Kai and Choi, Kabocha and even Haku were gathered at the base of the ship, everyone apparently having gotten the call before them. Frowning in confusion he folded his hands behind his head, wandering over to join everyone else and glancing around to see where Vegeta might be. "So what did we get called here for anyways?" Takeshi asked loudly, sniffing annoyed and coming to a stop just under the shadow of the ship, "Shu and I had stuff to do you know, what's the big deal?"

"No one knows Takeshi, we just got asked to come here so here we are," Yumi responded, rolling her eyes after the boy complained, "We all did, this is supposed to be a break. But he said it was important so we came, relax. You two can get back to... Whatever it was you were going to do later." She had been wanting to do some training today herself, yet with their being brought here she had a feeling that would have to wait a while longer. With how far she felt she was falling behind the others she really needed to spruce up her skills, especially given how much of a fanatic she generally was about fighting and training. Turning her head she caught Choi's glance in turn, giving him a smile and wave before looking to her right at T'charrl and Haku. "I haven't seen you in a while, hope everything's going okay for you," she said, speaking to the Kaesstrian, "You look like you're doing well!"

Dragon Ball: Legacy (Mogtaki and Vena Sera)

"If you attack the colony though then the guards are bound to respond, however futile an effort it may be. I suppose we can't fault them for defending their home, I just wish they weren't so blind as to think this was solving anything." They gained nothing from killing all these potential troops, in the end it only weakened Numina and their empire as a whole. Whoever was in charge had no idea what they were subjecting their people to by fighting, it was easier to simply give up and let what come may. Shaking his head in outward disgust, the king glanced across the ruins of the city, bodies strewn here and there and buildings crumbling from several impacts. So this is what they would rather endure as opposed to a new leadership, simply absurd...

There was nothing left for them in this region, they had tried and failed to get every major city to cooperate with them. Yamate had personally come along to negotiate the terms himself and thus far it had done nothing to help the situation. Bothersome, he would think that even with these people being detached from the war they would know what a suicide mission it was to fight him and Krom. "Delay us, but why? What could they be trying to buy time for, I wonder?" Yamate mused, frowning as he rose up into the air, turning south, "I suppose we're likely to find out soon enough, no doubt a distress call has been sent out already. If I had to guess I would say it's the rebels, though I'm hard pressed to think that Korian would condone this behavior." Pain in the neck as his former commander might be he did have a sense of justice, if perhaps misguided at times. Plundering homes already ravaged by war was not something even he as a Saiyan allowed, and any troops who were caught doing so were dealt with, harshly.

"We'll find someone yet. Unless this entire world has a death wish we should come across a wise man willing to lay down his arms." Taking off he began flying back over the wreckage of the city, speeding south at a quick pace as the ground below began to turn into a blur. Glancing back to Krom in tow he frowned for a moment, wondering what his thoughts were on the situation. "Tell me something... We're close to Uuonoe, are we not? Do you think they've contacted the rebel home world to try and get aid?" Close was relatively speaking, but it was one of the few planets in the area, just under two hours away. The rebels did seem like the most likely option for help, albeit he couldn't well see them risking troops to save a planet of scavengers. "Perhaps if rebels do come, we can send a message to Korian. He has to stop this idiotic war of his, before he and I both lose more good soldiers."

Numina was hardly a world that the rebels had worked with before, as the war had never really impacted them. Hearing them now was alarming for several reasons, the foremost being that the enemy was some how right on their doorstep despite the front lines being several thousands of kilometers away. Just how had the enemy troops made it this far in? And how many were there to be causing Numina so much strife? With the main contingent of rebels out on the front lines there were only a handful here, and of those only Sasha and Ricken had any real extensive combat experience. Neither of them could be asked to go, they were needed here in the event Uuonoe was targeted as well. There may well not have been any assistance they could lend were it not for some convenient visitors, namely the Princes and their group which they traveled with. It was a lot to ask of them to be sure, but knowing their record they weren't likely to turn down the request. With their ship being still docked at the landing zone it was easy to get a hold of it, and once through to the communications officer it was a simple matter of reaching whoever might be in charge.

"Yes...? What can we help you with?" Vegeta asked, frowning as he stood over the console, looking at the face of a rather worried and flustered Uuonian over a screen.

"We received a distress call just moments ago, from Numina. It's a nearby world, one that hasn't even had a part in the war until now," the alien explained nervously, visibly upset as his hand shook while he moved the display about to show the world in question, "Their call was distorted, but they were clearly under attack by someone. Naturally we think its the Saiyans..."

"How would they get all the way here though? Korian and Sayomi were on their doorstep the last time we saw them," Vegeta remarked, furrowing his brow as he crossed his arms.

"That's just it, they still are! They had to withdraw a bit because of those attacks, but they're near enough to notice someone coming and going. We don't know how someone got out here, but they're currently attacking the planet and desperately need aid. Please, you've all done so much already but we need your aid again," the Uuonian asked, bowing his head briefly before looking at Vegeta with desperation, "If Numina falls then we may be targeted next, and as our world stands we can't well take another assault so soon. You and your friends have fought before, haven't you? Ask them for help, we beg of you!"

It was always something, wasn't it? Some attack somewhere, and inexplicably he and the others managed to get themselves dragged into it. Vegeta wasn't going to refuse these requests, but he wouldn't exactly hide his annoyance over being asked either. "We are not your troops to send every which way whenever needed, we've made that clear from the start," he remarked, frowning as he met the gaze of the Uuonian, "That being said... We can't turn a blind eye to this, I'll see what I can do. Any mention of the enemy's strength? How many troops they have?"

"N-No... The call was too distorted, we barely understood a word they were saying," the alien responded, frowning as he rubbed his hands together, "There... Was mention of one word however that made us concerned... They mentioned 'king' over the broadcast. We don't know if they were referring to their own, or something else."

"King... That can't be right... No way it could be him..." Could it? All of the fighting was going on so far away, what was the likelihood of Yamate himself being out here? Vegeta couldn't fathom why it might be the case, it didn't make any sense from any perspective. Surely the individual making the call had meant their own king, that was the only logical conclusion he could come to. Why then did he have this terrible sense of foreboding? "I see... As I said I'll let the others know, we'll get back to you as soon as we've gathered what we can for fighters. See you then."
