(XD I just love having Maren do cheap shots. He isn't exactly the smartest being out there.)
Not having thought his attempt to choke out his enemy as he leaped onto Raditz's back and hung on, Maren rarely ever did think out his attacks even back home, usually just going straight for the kill when he saw the chance. It was a strategy that often left him with broken bones, bruises, and a dented ego that never seemed to die down. Of course, back on Earth he usually had the chance to get back up on his feet, this not being one of those times as he glared daggers at the jerk who easily managed to take him off his back.
"Y-you act like I'll back down from you!" Yelling angrily despite hearing Aelith's reactions to what he had done, Maren had spent all his life fighting for what he wanted and what he needed simply to survive. The cushy life that many humans had lived so long ago wasn't a part of Maren's thought process, his instinct to not back down from a fight being as strong as it ever was. That didn't stop the fact that the teen was naturally going to be protective of his only friend on this ship though, the sight of Aelith being knocked against a wall causing his heart to fall into his chest as he growled angrily and dug his nail's into the Saiyan's arm.
"You do w-whatever you want with me, but don't lay a finger on her...I mean it".
