Brachi and Xenest both remained silent, but followed Vegetto after the woman, wondering what was next while mentally preparing themselves.

Solaris adjusted his armor following along, mentally reasserting himself, and not falling prey to the programming that once controlled him.

Kire nodded to Koth's request and was willing to help him out with the ship. His eyes then shifted to the sudden force of energy coming from Junior. He narrowed his eyes and listened to Junior's outburst, not liking what he told to Jaz; however, he refused to intervene between the two. He placed his hands into his pockets and watched carefully but he shook his head in a disappointing way.
"Oh boy, that's gonna come back at him..." he sighed.
=====
Jaz was having fun sparring with Junior until the tone in his voice shifted and his attacks seemed more heavy on her body. She started to feel the brunt of his fists even when KABS cuts it in half. It didn't hurt her as much as she thought but pain was still felt. As Junior's attacks got faster and stronger, she did manage to keep up and slip away from a few, showing how far the suit can go. When Junior said his words, Jaz's mind was not thinking about the battle at hand and she took a hit to her side which made her skid across the grass just a couple feet away from Junior. She stared at the floor and balled her hands into fists.
"Oh yeah..?" Her voice was soft at first but it grew into obvious rage. "What about almost getting killed several times just looking for your friend because you were weak? What about getting dragged into a huge mess that you want no part in?!" She quickly stared at Junior's direction. "I didn't asked to be frozen for almost twenty-five years! I didn't ask you to come looking for me! If it was such a big problem to you, then you should've never came and saved us!"
She started to walk in Junior's direction, her fist shaking.
"The girl of your dreams huh..? Glad to know the person you like admitted her feelings to you." Jaz stopped before Junior, her voice even louder than before. "I hope that she's everything you wanted and that she doesn't give you any more pain like I do!"
Jaz lunged her fist directly at Junior's face but stopped just inches from hitting him. She couldn't bring herself to hit him. The force behind her fist, however, was about ten times stronger than the force she put on Junior at the start of the match. The energy that came out of her fist almost seemed to have a familiar warrior aura almost identical to Junior. The energy felt wasn't from the suit but coming directly from Jaz. The force caused the surrounding ground to shake slightly. Jaz's shoulders quaked while she remained silent but even behind the mask, her pain was obvious. She pushed Junior away from her.
"You're a jerk!" She screamed before running off into the ship.
=====
Kire watched his girl run off and made no attempt to stop her. He pulled out a cigarette and rolled his eyes.
"Alright guys, I think I got enough data." Kire said while looking at the remaining fighters, lighting his cigarette. "Mioi, you can take a break whenever you want, I'm proud at how fast you've learned. Thanks a bunch for giving her a fight, Gogeta." Kire started to walk to Junior with one hand in his pocket and the other fiddling with his smoke. "Koth, you should take everyone inside and begin patching up this ship. I'll help you out as soon as I'm done talking to this kid, in private."
Kire stood just a couple feet from Junior, making sure the wind blew the smoke away from the boy. He didn't seem in any rush and was rather relaxed despite Junior beating and lashing out at Jaz.
"Oh boy, that's gonna come back at him..." he sighed.

Panich
Green Jacket
Panich's power surged through her, fearing that Junior might let his anger get the better of him. She nearly rushed into the battlefield before feeling his energy disappear. She and the others watched as Jaz retaliated with a strong fist, seeing the gust that she created before rushing away into the ship. Zibarica and Basil's eyes narrowed at Juniors outburst.
"Kire said he's gathered enough data. No need to stick around." Panich instructed them as she made her way to the ship.
Paprika gave Junior an uneasy look as she and Basil followed Panich. Zibarica, however, made his way over to the fusion. He moved Kire out of his way before grabbing onto Juniors collar, holding back the urge to punch him.
"Zibarica!" Basil called to him in a hopeless effort, before sighing as he ignore him.
"You make me sick. You think the whole damn universe revolves around you. Real pain my ass! Don't go throwing yourself a pity party because you screwed up!" The namekians face was inches away from the fusions. "And don't call any of us your friends! Because I'm sure as far as your concerned, we're all just scraps to you! Right, Sellout!?"

Bage followed suit, preparing himself for whatever they would face next.

Mioi flinched at the sudden sensation at her right arm, but she caught movement from her left peripheral field. There! I must complete a field rotation!
Her leg that was further out dug the heel into the dirt, making Mioi lurch forward into a slight crouch as she spun and stuck the other leg out towards to swing out at what had passed by her left side. She was guaranteed at least a glimpse of an extended field of vision, but she caught the outburst between Jaz and Vegetto Jr.
"Have we missed something?" She asked aloud, holding her hand up in attempt to stop herself from rotating any further and pause the match. The alien seemed relatively oblivious to exactly what went down, in how quickly things took a turn.

Oriko finally found his way out of the ship, looking at the ongoing spar. His jaw dropped, seeing Jaz more or less keeping up with Vegetto Jr.
"Uhh, was I knocked unconscious for another few years? Is this some sort of dream?" He questioned, his jaw dropped.
"Uhh, was I knocked unconscious for another few years? Is this some sort of dream?" He questioned, his jaw dropped.
Appearing in line of sight of where Mioi struck out, Gogeta Jr. grunted and grasped tightly onto her shin, holding it in place.
"Not bad. You didn't even fall for my trick on the other side."
He soon released her leg, however, his attention turning towards the two fighting. His eyes remained narrow, watching on as Jaz stormed back into the ship and Zibarica grasping onto Vegetto Jr.'s collar.
Vegetto Jr. glanced away during the entire outburst from both Jaz and Zibarica, having remained silent with his attention firmly locked into the ground. However, Zi's final words struck at the him, Vegetto Jr. lifting his head back up and meeting Zi's strong glare with one of his own. His aura suddenly flared up once again, black lightning striking violently at the ground around him.
"You will be once I'm done with you!!"
Vegetto Jr. lunged forward, a sudden shift of wind erupting in front of Zibarica. Now standing between the two and having caught Vegetto Jr.'s fist, Gogeta Jr. grunted as he used his shoulder to push Zibarica back a little before facing towards Vegetto Jr.
"Both of you! Cut it out."
Gogeta Jr. blinked, however, caught off guard with Vegetto Jr. rapidly throwing a strong punch into his stomach. The other Saiyan stumbled backwards, nearly collapsing into Zibarica but dropped to one knee before running into him. He clutched his stomach, his eyes wide in confusion as Vegetto Jr. straightened himself upright, his fists still clenched.
"Don't ever touch me again."
Without waiting for a reply, the hybrid suddenly bolted into the sky, soon disappearing into a small purple streak towards space above.
Gogeta Jr. grimaced, rising back up to his feet and descending back down to his normal state.
"Well...great. So that happened."

Kire's Vision Only
"This bodes poorly."
The Dread Saiyan stood a few feet to the side of Kire, his confident smirk strong as he turned to face towards the man with his arms crossed behind his back.
"When he finishes his temper tantrum, he will likely search for the Dragon Balls. Then you know what comes next."

Once the group had fully moved up the stairs, the soon entered into a nearly identical room from the last. Just as the other one, it appeared to be more of an open library more than a combat room, the same voice echoing out in the chamber.
"It seems you proven yourself over the tyrant, who seeks to manipulate the truth and twist it to further his own ends. Tell me, what makes you believe you are any different than him?"
"Not bad. You didn't even fall for my trick on the other side."

"King Hypo, like certain other members of his kind, have been part of an organization which conquer planets, enslave or wipe out their natural inhabitants and either sell the planet to the highest bidder, conquer it for themselves as to make it a settlement of their own, or destroy it if it has nothing of value for them. We on the other hand live in peaceful co-existence with the inhabitants of the planets we live on and we do not seek universal conquest." Brachi stated, crossing her arms.

Kira looked concerned out of a window where Junior had gone.

Solaris thought for a moment. "Because we've learned that friendship is a much, much stronger ability then manipulation. Friendship is what keeps us going. Without our friends, we wouldn't be here. And friends don't lie to each other."

"Look, I know I said I don't like the boy..." He said while taking another breath of his cigarette. "But, I'm not gonna let him turn into you. I'll talk to you once I'm done fixing more important things."
Kire paused for a moment, looking up in the direction of where Junior flew off. He knew he couldn't get the boy back so he thought he might as well start with talking to Jaz. He glanced at Dread and seemed to urge him to follow. He knew he'd talk to him eventually. Kire stepped inside his lab and didn't notice Jaz inside so he attempted to open the room right next to it. It was locked and he knew he found Jaz.
"Jaz, open the door." Kire sighed, his finger turning into a lock pick. He fiddled with the lock on the door.
"No! Go away!" Jaz yelled from the other side, oblivious to the fact that Kire had already opened the door.
"Now, now, Jaz, that's no way to talk to your father..." Kire said gently. He stared at the circle of boxes Jaz put herself in and smiled. "Think I can come in your castle, Princess Jaz?"
Jaz remained silent but nodded to her father, keeping her back facing him. Kire stepped inside and sat next to his daughter. "What's wrong, cupcake? You usually never get this sad over a boy."
"Junior is such a jerk! He reminded me of his stupid ugly evil self! Why did he have to go and say all that mean stuff?"
"Well, I think Junior's been through a lot while lookin' for us, cupcake. Yeah, he shouldn't have yelled at you, but I don't think callin' him a jerk solved anythin', did it?"
"Not really..." Jaz sighed.
"Y'see Jaz, people aren't exactly on good terms with Junior because they only see the bad he did but fail to see that he's really a hero." Kire stared at Dread, almost as if talking to him too. "Junior did sleep with a hag but if he didn't, they would've never found us. I think what Junior really wants is a bit of appreciation for essentially letting himself get raped. I doubt he's happy about what he did either."
"But he did mostly all of this for the girl of his dreams... I mean, I know he wanted to save his dad and his friends but that one girl really inspired him... She must be somewhere really safe if we've never met her."
The man stared at his daughter who sniffled slightly under her visor. He tapped on the earpieces to the side and caused the visor to retreat to show a teary Jaz. He cleaned away his daughter's tears and pulled her closer to him, putting one arm around her shoulder. His voice was still gentle.
"Look Jaz, I know you love the boy, but you gotta at least let him explain himself. I think you're the only person he's willing t' talk to, but you gotta give him a chance, Jaz." He ruffled Jaz's hair which caused her to giggle slightly. "But you need t' learn to control your emotions too, Jaz. You can't just go around callin' people jerks."
"I'm sorry..." Jaz frowned.
"I'm not the one you should be sayin' sorry to, cupcake." Kire smiled. "But I think Junior would really appreciate it, tho'. Sadly, he flew off when he got into a fight with someone. I have no ide--"
"I'll go find him!" Jaz said confidently. She felt better and seem to have her mind set on trying to make things right between her and Junior.
"No, it's too dangerous Jaz." Kire frowned.
"But daddy, I know I can find him! Besides, I have KABS to protect me!" Jaz rose to her feet. "I know it sounds crazy, but I can sense some energy, especially ones like Junior, Veggie, and the other Saiyans! I can even fly a little bit like them! I don't know where it came from... but I know I'll be able to pin him out and bring him back! Please Daddy!"
Kire stared at Jaz and back at Dread. He did need to talk to Junior but he didn't want Jaz to get herself into a mess. However, after several minutes of thinking, he let out a sigh and scratched his head.
"Well, okay. Just be careful and don't go around pissin' people off and don't talk to strangers--" Kire was cut off by Jaz kissing his cheek and hugging him tightly before running off like any typical kid would. The man smiled and felt as if he had nothing to worry about and for a second, he forgot he was alone with Dread.
Kire paused for a moment, looking up in the direction of where Junior flew off. He knew he couldn't get the boy back so he thought he might as well start with talking to Jaz.
