War, war is a constant never ending thing from any civilization. All races have always seemed to have war, either between themselves or with other races. It seems to be within everyone, the most battle hungry race would be no different. Not in the least..

Seventeen Years Prior to Current Time

"You'll be okay, you've been through far worse then labor before Nira!" A mans voice said in a reassuring tone as the blurry eyes of the woman laying in the bed looked up to him. "This is hell you idiot! This is the most indescribable pain ever and you trying to downplay it isn't helpful!" The woman roared angrily, then groaning out from the pain she was enduring currently from the contractions. Her hand squeezing onto the male in the chair beside her tightly. "Make them give me something for pain, god fucking dammit!" She roared at the top of her lungs, the child inside of her stomach still little did this woman yet to know was going to take after her like a rewritten book.

The male seemed a bit nervous, knowing what his wife was going through he knew if he didn't at least try he'd feel the rage later even if everything went alright. Sure he was a proud warrior saiyan, but she seemed to wear the pants in the relationship, that much was for sure most of the time. He walked out slamming the sliding door to the side and extending his head out towards one of the preparing nurses. "Hey you! Yeah, you! Get in here!" He roared commandingly, the nurse would do so reluctantly but knowing it was probably for a good cause.

When she arrived to see the sight she was preparing for, the nurse went uneasy. Clearly it was one of her first deliveries and she was relatively new to the place. Nira saw this in the woman's eyes and began to become irate. "OH GOOD LORD, A FUCKIN' ROOKIE!?" She roared out as she punched into the metal bar on the left side of her bed, crushing into it and bending the metal heavily as she gave not only the nurse but her own husband a death look. "If you don't get this little shit out of me, so help me fucking god I am going to take out your entrails and hang them as my new god damn curtains!" She roared in clear heavy pain as she held herself back from going absolutely beserk, not to mention the fact the baby and contractions were making it unbelievably difficult on her to begin with.

Tomokashi shut the door, releasing a long exhale as he tried to talk to the nurse about it in the most calm and easiest way possible. Inside the heavy enforced see through slide door, Nira was going ape shit from the pain and screaming at the two on the other side of the door. Tomokashi looked to the nurse, beginning to use his hands as a way to plead. "She needs something for pain, she is in extreme distress. Look at her, she needs help. She needs a epidural, or a shot of morphine. Something!" He said in a clearly concerned fashion. A lot of Saiyan men didn't really care about their mates or children to this level, but Tomokashi was a good man.

The nurse looked down towards her feet and took a long inhale trying to regather herself from such a intense situation. She had good solid training for stuff like this, she was just pretty new to it all and a bit shook up from the woman inside. After a moment for a breather she looked back up to him and was about to speak before a tray slammed into the door beside them making a loud boom but then just sliding down and hitting the floor. The irate saiyan woman inside clearly the cause as she screamed at the top of her lungs in pain and anger, though nothing could be heard on the other side of the door.

"I'll do what I can." She said reassuringly to Tomokashi, who nodded gratefully. "Please do, I don't think i'll survive the next half hour without it." He said in a somewhat jokingly manner, but really he was entirely serious about that possibility. The nurse nodded and rushed off in the hospital, the multiple people in the halls passing around and the occasional doctor going back and forth in the maternity ward of the building. It was one of the most secure and locked down parts of the hospital with almost more staff then the emergency room.

Taking a long deep inhale to calm himself before going back into hell, the loving husband of Nira opened up the door making his way inside as the screams could be heard through the entire hallway, rage filling all the echos until he shut the door going inside and dealing with her ongoing rage for the next bit. Trying his best to calm her down and help her through it, despite getting a few fractured fingers from her grip squeezing onto his hand during the contractions. He dealt with it for her, enduring her ensuing rage until the doctor came in followed by two nurses sliding it open.

"Alright, it's been decided you'll be given a epidural." He said as he looked to the two nurses for assistance while beginning to prepare the spinal shot. The two of them seemed frightened looking at the mostly immobile but enraged saiyan woman in the bed. "THE FUCK IS A EPIDURAL!?" She screamed not quite grasping it currently, she would of normally but she was blind with pain and rage currently. The doctor seemed a bit nervous now first hand experiencing what one of the two nurses in the room had told him. The two nurses seemed a bit startled by her outburst and tried to calm themselves in the best fashion.

"I need you two to." The doctor said, the woman in the bed narrowing her eyes not understanding what the hell the doctor was going on about. Until the two nurses came forward and began to lift her upwards. She put up a good struggle but eventually they got her titled to the correct position. "Miss, relax it'll help with the pain!" One of the nurses said trying to calm down the woman who was going irate. "Hurry up then, this fuckin' hurts!" She roared loudly as they held her a good extent to make her not move.

She roared in pain as the shot was inserted into her spine, she bit into her bottom lip while squeezing on to whatever she could get her hands on at the time as tightly as possible. Breaking the beds frame between her hand as the doctor finished the shot as quickly, but as carefully as possible before retracting it and nodding lightly. "Alright, it's done. This should help numb pretty much anything below your waist from pain." The male said as he nodded his head to the right, the nurses getting out of the room as quickly as possible.

The doctor stood there in front of the time as he took the time to talk to the two, despite the woman still being irate as it'd take a few seconds for it to kick in. "Alright, from my best guess with how often your contractions are coming. You still have a bit longer to go until the baby will be entirely out. If you need us, press the red butt-" He said as he looked towards the red button on the remote, which was broken entirely from how much the woman had obviously been slamming onto it. She apparently slammed so hard, it never even got the message out. "If you need us, have your husband get us!" He said reassuringly before making his way out as quickly as possible. He moved to the wall and took a long inhale once out of the room. "That man.. He must be a machine for being able to deal with that."

Tomokashi, the one the doctor was referring to sat by his wife patiently and lovingly. As the epidural kicked in to the woman, things seemed to be relaxing on her a good bit. The epidural worked entirely which was good, numbing out practically all of her pain. She laid there, her face red and sweat pouring over her body. A bit more relaxed and calm now, her head tilted looking over to her husband who sat ever so lovingly beside of her. "Thank you.. Tomokashi. I can't feel really anything now.." She said even with a small smile from her relief, it was a very rare occasion she said something so gentle. "Hahaha! It really must of worked on you, to say something so cute!" He said as Niras face puckered negatively, her hand raised smacking him upside the head with a good portion of force. "Even in labor i'll kick your ass Tomokashi!" She growled as Tomokashi couldn't help but laugh gently as he looked down to his wife.

Despite going through it all, he wouldn't leave his side through the entire thing. He refused to leave his wife in such a important time in her life as the contractions continued gradually, drawing closer and closer towards the time of birth for the baby inside. "Our little girl will be just like you Nira, I can already tell." Tomokashi said with a bright smile down to her, Nira only rolling her eyes in reply.

Two Years Later [Fifteen in Past]

The combined steps of two different individuals walking upon solid tiles through a building echoed loudly. The door opened as they entered a new sector of the building, a reception desk being a straight away to the door with hallways going off in four directions, not counting the one they just came from. "Tell me where he is." The familiar voice of Tomokashi said to the receptionist who looked up gently from her book towards him. Tomokashi seemed to be in a relatively serious mood, aside him stood Nira like a lot of times. Though she seemed a bit different in appearance, that was probably to be expected by this point.

"You must mean your father Tomokashi. It's been awhile, glad your mission was a success." The receptionist said as Tomokashi took a nod, replying to both with the same gesture simultaneously. Nira staying completely quiet, she didn't quite like this place. Really she didn't like Tomokashi's father to begin with, but there wasn't much she could do about it. Her eyes glared towards the receptionist, she could be a very fiesty woman and if she even thought another woman was flirting with Tomokashi she'd go to the point of beating her ass, then Tomokashi's ass.

The receptionist looked to Nira, gulping lightly she turned away and then settled back down into her chair and lifted up her book covering over her face. More so out of intimidation for the woman, she was well known for starting fights over the simplest things in the community of the Saiyan race. "Your father is with your daughter in his personal training room, he built a ne-" She was cut off from Nira slamming her hands down on the desk.

"WHAT!?" She roared loudly as she looked to the receptionist. "What room!?" She yelled loudly, in a irate fashion about what she just heard. She glared towards the book as she slung her hand up slamming it down into the table, the receptionist making eye contact before nervously peering off to the side. "It's labelled 1-B" She said as Nira turned towards the hallway which was 'B', which meant it was at the end of the hallway considering it was 'B-20' here are the end of the hallway, a simple storage closet or something sitting at the end of the hallway. Nira gave no care as she began to make her way down the hallway in a quick and powerful stomping fashion.

"Thank you." Tomokashi said to the receptionist before hurrying off to Nira's side as he knew primarily what was on her mind to be freaking out, Tomokashi wasn't quite happy with what he just heard either but he wanted to allow Nira to rant out a bit of her anger before they arrived so he asked anyways. "Nira, what is it?" He asked her trying to keep up with her fast-walking pace as they walked down the hallway passing by the rooms the aggravated saiyan mother glared over to him and then back down the hallway.

"We have been gone almost the amount of time I was carrying her on a mission, specifically given to us by -your- father. Six fucking months, I barely had any time to recover from the child birth itself before we were sent back to duty. Your impatient father had me put in that stupid rejuvenation tank not a day after she was actually born. That for starters, has me pissed off and impatient to see my little girl."

She said though going on a bit of a rant, Nira wasn't close to do nor had she hit the main subject that Tomokashi was to a extent somewhat prodding on. "But the girl is fucking two Tomokashi! Two! I understand she's a Saiyan and we all want her to grow up strong, but your father putting her through training at two years old!? This is inexcusable!" She roared her fist slamming into the metal plating upon one of the walls as her pace began to quicken even further. The rooms going by going down in number at a accelerated race. "Wait up Nira!" Tomokashi said as he was beginning to be left behind from his wife who was storming down the hall by this point.

She finally reached the end of the hallway, a large door in front of her above it said '1-B' and she slammed her hand down upon the button on the door. The doors slid open and she went into the more lightened area, her eyes taking a moment to adjust she roared out angrily. "Titan!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. "What is the meaning of thi-" She said cut off mid-sentence by what she saw in front of her. It wasn't quite what she was expecting to see when she got into the room.

Tomokashi came up a few moments later, panting slightly as he stopped at Nira's side looking over to her. "What is it Nira?" He asked as she gave no reply, he looked over into the room his eyes meeting the sight of what she did. It was a rather unexpected sight but there in front of the two Titan stood his index fingers out with the small baby of a toddler standing there holding onto his two index fingers tightly as props to use to stand up. She couldn't stand entirely on her own yet very well, despite being two she had some difficulties with walking at a young age and so it took her a bit longer then others. Titan was sitting there on the ground, helping Azuki use her small and somewhat chubby baby legs to stand up on her own for the most part. "That's it, you've got it." The man sitting down said gently, before noticing the two whom entered the room.

He looked over to the two, the two looking back to him a bit shocked. Not only was it a much simpler sight then they both expected to see, but there was baby fit training equipment around that most babies would use more for playing then any kind of workout though that was a small child's work out. Nira was a bit speechless and she didn't know what to say at the moment. From a combination of relief and her surprise to see Azuki standing and after six months away from her daughter it was all a storm of emotions over inside of her currently. Tomokashi smiled lightly, happy about the scenario for the most part.

"Hello father.."

He said gently to his father who looked back over to him with a nod. "Hello Tomokashi, Nira." He said as he'd gently look back down to Azuki. "Look, Azuki it's your mother and father." He said, the small toddler looking over before busting out into smiles and giggles. She released his fingers and began to walk towards her mother and father, making even Titan's eyes open widely as he saw the scene. She had yet to do this, not once in the entire time he was trying to help her walk. All on her own and not having too much trouble with it either. Azuki went half the entire way before she tripped gently and plopped down onto her knees, she crawled the rest of the way towards her mother. Azuki was obviously quite the active baby and even with her mother and fathers absence for the past six months she knew them quite well, especially her mother. Someone irreplaceable to the young saiyan female.

Nira bent down and scooped the small child up into her arms, she looked down to her and the small baby Azuki looked back up with her cute little smile and giggle. Nira smiling back and giggling as well, a couple tears coming out of her eyes. A mixture of a lot of things, but separation from her daughter for those six months had really done a number on her and it was mostly out of happiness did she have tears flowing from her eyes at the time. Her head extended down kissing upon the girls head gently as she'd nuzzle her lightly while holding her tightly. "Azuki.." Nira said lowly out of happiness. Tomokashi looked over to the scene, usually him being the one to do something like that with Azuki but Nira had really missed the small girl. Tomokashi bent over pecking Azukis head as well before looking over to his father.

Titan stood up gradually off of the floor brushing himself off a good few times. "Azuki is quite a active child, most of the time she can't contain herself from wanting to do something, so I had a lot of this place converted into a baby fit 'training' area for her but i'd more or less just call it playing." He said as Tomokashi chuckled lightly looking to him. "She wasn't much trouble was she father?" He asked as Titan was quick to shake his head. "Not at all, not more then expected at least. We all know she's a pretty Wild Child." Tomokashi nodded in reply as Titan began to walk forward to the two hands behind his back.

"Come, let us all talk." Titan said heading out the door between them and off down the hallway a short bit, before he turned to the side and entered within another room. Inside was more of a simple living room type ordeal. With tables, couches, televisions and the likes. Not quite Titans personal quarters but a room that would work all the same. His quarters were a bit farther away so he hadn't bothered to go that far. Leading the three behind him into the room, he clicked a button upon the wall as he entered and then took a seat.

Tomokashi, Nira and Azuki all entered the room Azuki still securely in her mothers arms as they all took a seat while looking around the room. Staring over towards the sole male who sat across from them, Azuki seemed quite happy currently. Probably from her mothers warmth which had been returned to her, she loved her mother sincerely that much was obvious. A small door opened in the wall as a small ball like metallic object in appearance floated out before it began to expand and small hatches opening as limbs and the likes extended. A rather simplistic robot coming forth. It went over to the kitchen section of the room gathering refreshments for them all, it took little time bringing three glasses and one bottle to the table. Titan picking up his cup took a long drink from it, downing back half of it before doing a stirring motion for a couple moments and replacing it on the table.

"So, the mission went smoothly I imagine? You are back ahead of schedule, so thats a good thing." He said as Tomokashi nodded gently over to him, picking up his own cup and sipping gently. "Yes father, we lost a couple men in the process that you sent with us but we completed the task without failure." He stated as Nira had entirely ignored her own cup for the time being too distracted in her own little angel in her arms. The robot gently lifted upwards the bottle towards the mother. The small baby looked to the robot with great curiosity for it, her small toddler hand of Azuki extending out to the device which reacted in no certain way but simply allowing it. Azuki blinked a few times at what a odd 'creature' it was to her, though being exposed to them before they still peeked her baby curiosity to this day. Robots proved to be fascinating things, some more advanced then others.

Nira growled lowly at the robot but then took the bottle, proceeding to ignore the robot best she could and placing it to Azukis lips gently to let her drink from. It was more of a morph between a 'bottle' and a 'sippie cup' for her. Azuki still had most of the tendencies she had when Nira left, which to the mother that was a blessing. She didn't want to miss her child's growth much, none if she could have it that way really. She began to let her drink while allowing the father and son to carry on conversation.

"Here it is, what you requested." Tomokashi said pulling something out from his back pocket and sliding it across the table. It was a medium sized object, maybe the size of a dinner plate but wrapped up tightly in a baige like colored cloth around it. Titan took it lifting it up gently. "Good, good. This will be vital in helping our cause." He said as he looked across the table to the husband and wife, with their still relatively young 'newborn' child. It had been fifteen years since the Changling and Saiyan war had started, it had gone on for quite some time now with both sides consistently pushing back at one another. Though the Saiyans have been confined to their own planet, in the terms of planetary control the past fifteen years which has come to limit them to some extents.

"So what is that anyways father, what you sent us to retrieve." Tomokashi asked as Titan took another good swallow of his drink and set the cup back down, the eery sound of glass smacking glass solidly being heard but not in any aggressive way. "As I said, it's a vital part of helping us son. It will allow us to tap into the idiotic lizards communications with our own, to listen in to everything they send amongst one another. This may be the turning point my dear boy, with access to their communications we should be capable of ruining any number of their missions and desires. Helping ourselves in the process to whatever they may need. I believe with this, we will be able to turn this war around for the better!" Titan said with a smirk looking to his son.

Relieved they had succesfully obtained such a important tool, he eased back into his seat gently. Looking over to the mother and daughter resting beside her. "I have to request we not be sent on any more missions for awhile, at least not Nira father." He said looking over to him, Nira's head turned with great curiosity for her husbands intent requesting such a thing from his father. She had been relatively quiet since obtaining Azuki into her arms. "Hmm, why is that exactly? You two are one of my best teams to send out when I need things done without failure." Titan said, though he normally couldn't say the same about whoever he sent with the husband and wife on missions.

"So that we can raise our daughter of course father, six months away from her was much too long. Not to mention, that was a relatively short mission compared to some in the past father. We both know, Azuki will be Nira's only capable born daughter. She was a miracle as it is, we cannot miss our opportunity at being parents anymore. Though for a very good cause, it tore us up to be away."

Titan took a long inhale easing back as he pondered over his sons words. He had been for the most part taking care of, monitoring and protecting Azuki either personally or by some of his most trusted guards and caretakers when he was needed to be doing his job. She was his granddaughter after all so he could take a bit of compassion to this subject. "Considering what you've successfully just given the Saiyan race.. I will grant your request son. You will have your time to raise your daughter in peace, say a decade for reward." He said, a long time without one of his bests; his son in work and one of the most hot headed but one of the strongest female saiyans he had ever met. But they deserved it and he understood this, Azuki was precious after all. Even to some extents Titan had come to grow attached to his grand daughter in these six months with her.

Standing up with a nod, he gently took Nira's hand. Ready to go home and get some rest after so long of not being home and coming directly here to give their short report and obtain their daughter. Nira stood up carefully with Azuki, not quite sure what to say at the time she just continued being quiet before following out towards the door behind Tomokashi. She walked past him as Azuki waved gently from over Nira's shoulders to her grandfather who chuckled gently waving back to the small energetic child. Tomokashi looked in to Titan for a moment before his lips spread and he said a short sentence before leaving the door coming to a secure close leaving Titan inside to himself currently.

"Thank you.. Father."

Ten Years Later [Five in Past]

Over the past ten years, since Tomokashi and Nira's completed mission they have raised their only child in relative peace as agreed upon for their reward. They have not been disturbed not even once, about a mission or the likes of doing a job for the Saiyan race or Titan for that matter. Excluding the occasional brawl Nira would get into as always for her own reasons, it had been quite peaceful for the father, mother and daughter. However, their time was coming to a end.

Opening her eyes, she scoffed lightly as she turned over towards the red dirt beside her. She pushed her hand up onto the dirt gently as she struggled to move her body, she was having difficulties keeping her eyes open and she could feel every part of her body in vigorous pain. Her own hands the only visible thing underneath her as she continued to push up onto her knees. She sat upwards panting heavily as she looked around her, what her eyes met were horrible. It was her parents bodies, sprayed in blood all about them. The corpses of others littered upon the ground as well and a dark figure casting in the background behind them. Azuki trembled gently at the sight as she looked upwards into the dark abyss that stood behind the corpses. A pearly white smirk could be seen along with the matching red eyes, the sharp teeth inside protruded out of the figures lips with ease. Then a large screech as it rushed forward and everything seemed to be fading into blackness quickly.

Azuki's eyes rushed open swiftly, flipping up and literally out of her bed as she face planted into the tiles of her bedroom. Her face hitting the ground roughly as she seemed to have been in a physical shock, sweat running down her body and her mentality shot for the moment as her brain attempted to regather itself. The dream was so strong, it had literally made herself jump out of bed when it ended. Azuki laid there on the ground, her face pushed against the tiling as she just laid there trying to recover herself. "It was.. A dream. Just a.. Dream." She said to herself as she went to push herself up from the ground, panting heavily she pulled herself up onto the bed and took a long inhale now recovering herself to begin the day.

"Azuki, I heard a thud. You're up now right? Come down!" The familiar noise of her fathers voice being heard through her ears as she lifted her hand scratching it through her head roughly as she didn't care about her bedhead let along putting on anymore clothes other then the long shirt she had on at the moment that went far down below her thighs. She just walked towards the stairs and shook her head a bit beginning to go down. "Coming!" Azuki replied the smells hitting her nostrils as she got closer and closer to downstairs. She finally arrived, to be met by a ever not so new scene.

Her mother was gone and her father was there cooking food for her, like almost every morning. Her mother was either out bringing home food for a later meal, or beating the ass of some scrub that might of looked at her wrong a week and a half ago. There was no telling with Nira, she was as unpredictable as Azuki was in quite a lot of ways. "Sit Azuki, we need to talk." Tomokashi said as he looked down to the food he was cooking, he couldn't quite manage to look over to Azuki. But Azuki complied all the same, going over to the table her head tilted looking over at the calender. Her eyes fixated in on what she saw out of curiosity. "Daddy, why is there a large red circle around today?" She asked as she looked over to her father once more.

Tomokashi finished plating the food for the girl as he then turned off the oven and walked back sliding it along the table in front of her along with a fork. He sat down taking a long inhale across from her as his head tilted down in reply. "That's what we need to talk about Azuki." Tomokashi said as he looked to her whom seemed to be ignoring her food out of worry. "Eat your food Azuki, or it'll get cold." He said as she nodded beginning to eat her food in a rather quick fashion while listening to her father all the same.

"You see Azuki, today is the day after ten years."

A third person in the house, who had just come in quietly enough not to be heard by the other two heard these words. It was of course Nira and her stomach turned, her eyes going down into the ground as she knew what that meant. She had tried to forget that would ever come, to enjoy time with her family. She had hoped by the time that came, the war would at least be over but of course not. Twenty five years in the making and it was still ongoing. She took a long inhale and stood there in the other room simply listening with her back against the wall not to disturb the two.

Azuki and Tomokashi continued in their talk, or rather half talk as Azuki continued to shove the excess amount of food into herself. She could eat a lot, like most Saiyans. With how much she burned on a daily basis from her activeness it could only be expected she would eat a lot. But as Tomokashi spoke, Azuki slowed down in her eating quite a lot to hear him. "Ten years ago, we made a deal with your grand father. Who you know as King Titan probably, since you haven't seen him very much since the time we made the deal with him." Azuki nodded gently, aware of the male named Titan while continuing to eat to herself gently.

Tomokashi let out a long sigh, he didn't make it known but he was aware Nira was there and in the house but he wouldn't allow Azuki to know that at least not yet. He let her eat while continuing to speak to her about the subject. "The deal was, for one decade which is ten years Azuki we would not be obligated to the army. Missions, Titan or any of it. We went on a highly dangerous mission ten years ago, to get a very important thing that helped us a bit in these past years. It was a device that allowed us to hear into our opponents communications and because of that sabotage their plans to better ourselves and allow us a edge in this war. So we could raise you dear, without us constantly leaving or being in danger of dying. My father granted us ten years to raise you in peace, today is the day after those ten years.. Our agreement is over Azuki and I don't know what will be coming. I've been rather out of the fray for a decade now, so I'm not quite up to date on the affairs of Vegeta lately to know what will or might happen."

Azuki seemed a bit surprised and yet a bit confused by his words. She finished off her food and then pushed it away as she began to ask. "So Mommy and daddy are going to be leaving me from now on? Simply because I am twelve?" She asked in a good bit of confusion. Tomokashi shook his head gently. "No, we are hoping that wont happen and it has nothing to do with you being twelve. It isn't your fault at all Azuki, don't think that it is either. This was simply a reward of peace, to help you from us." He said with a smile running his hand through her head with a chuckle. "Like your mother has always said to you, all we can do is hope for the best and prepare for the worst right?" He said as Azuki looked down to the table, this news wasn't very good on her stomach after the dream she had shortly ago.

"Yeah.." Azuki replied softly as she wasn't quite sure how to interpret this and had gone somewhat quiet. Tomokashi noticing his daughters concern for the subject, went ahead and changed it so that he could cheer her up. "Oh look Azuki, I think your mother is home!" He said fully aware that would get her excited. Azuki looked up curiously towards his father as she looked for her mother behind him. About to stand up and rush to the door to see if what he said was true.

Nira bit her bottom lip roughly as she was listening to the entire conversation. She looked down to herself, remembering holding her baby girl for the first time in her arms all those years ago. To think she might be deprived from her child again, was a very scary thought in her mind and plausibly her greatest fear. Upon hearing Tomokashi acknowledge her presence she was a bit surprised but stepped out anyways from behind the wall and into sight of the two. "Hey you two, you just finish breakfast?" She asked with a smile, showing nothing of her concern or that she had overheard.

Azuki got up from the table as she rushed over towards her mother, springing onto her with a tight clutch as she refused to let go. Nira minded none in the least, her arms circling around the back of her young daughter. Hoisting her up a bit as she held her in her arms securely. Tomokashi chuckled gently before looking into Nira's eyes, Nira looked back into his both of them holding a sincere expression of concern. Azuki had her eyes closed, facing the other direction over her mothers shoulder while hugging onto her tightly.

Nira eventually let her down onto the ground softly as she took a long inhale through her lips before smiling down to her. "How was breakfast sweetie?" She asked, a entirely different woman to her daughter then she was to really anyone else. She could almost never hold the same attitude with her, even when upset with her daughter she only had a certain motherly level of aggravation and anger towards her. Azuki nodded gently with a happy smile to her face widely. "Good! Daddy is as good of a cook as ever!" She stated as she smiled over to her father, Nira laughing at her statement. "Why yes, that has to be one of the things I married him for." Tomokashi hearing this began chuckling, which cause the other two to begin to laugh with him.

Azuki smiled as she looked towards the ground to herself. "Maybe today wont be so bad after all, stupid dreams." She thought as she looked back up to her loving parents, after what she had heard she was damn well positive she wouldn't allow them to leave her. She'd make it her goal to refuse that if need be and keep them here with her for as long as she could. The group seemed to be having quite a nice moment, that was until the large booming sound of a knock was heard on their door. All of their eyes widened slightly, Nira and Tomokashi had great worry inside as Azuki looked to them. "I'll get it!" She said as she began walking towards the door.

Rushing towards the door, away from her parents. Nira realizing a couple seconds later, raised her voice a bit to her daughter. "Wait, Azuki!" She said as she went to follow after her, but it was a bit too late for that by this point. Azuki gripped the handle of their door, unlocking it and proceeding to open it. In front of her stood two different large men, one with almost no hair on his head with a receding hair line and the other with very messy shaggy hair. Both of them were rather tall with rough appearances to both of them. Both adorning their own respective outfits with Saiyan armor to each of them. They looked down to the girl, a bit shocked that she answered the door. The nearly bald man one looked down to her, hands upon his hips. "Well you must be little Azuki, hahaha. Aren't you a cutie." He said in a rather creepy way to the young twelve year old saiyan girl.

"Who the hell are you?" Azuki asked back to them, her head tilting to the side without showing even a bit of fear to the two elites at her door. Her face puckering and her eyes staring right into theirs, her eyebrow raised and her arms crossed gently. Taken back a bit by the girl the man with little hair wasn't quick enough to reply before his buddy got a chance to laugh. "Man, that little girl just told you." He said in a primarily playful way before Nira walked into the picture. Nira looked at the sight and knew exactly what it had to do with, both of them wearing elite emblems upon their armors.

Nira walked over, hand resting on her daughters shoulder gently. She nudged her back softly to go behind her while crossing her arms and looking to the two. Her glare seemed to shoot directly into their souls and made both of the elites gulp from her presence. They had only heard stories of this woman and what she had done to people who made her mad. It wasn't easy to scare elite saiyans so that said a lot, their eyes drifted for a moment before the shaggy one took the chance to speak to the woman. "We are here to get your husband and you. The King has requested your presence." He said as he then looked down to Azuki, who looked back to him. She stuck her tongue out towards him in a rather negative way but it only made the elite roll his eyes gently.

"Tomokashi.. Get out here, your father sent a couple of his goons." Nira said as Tomokashi sighed lifting up from his chair in the dining room. He walked around the house until he came to the front door and in visible sight. Now putting Azuki even farther from the door, behind him. "What is it?" Tomokashi asked as the two looked to Tomokashi in a different way, in a leadership kind of way. "Your father has request-" He began to say as Tomokashi grumbled making him stop mid-sentence. "Fine, I suppose he would hold a tight grasp upon the date wouldn't he." Tomokashi said as he looked to them. "We'll be out in a minute." He said before slamming the door into their faces figuratively without a care.

He then moved back looking to Nira, who looked back with a bit of worry in her eyes before Tomokashi forced a smile and looked down to his daughter who stood there a bit confused on their presence. "Azuki, were gonna go see grandpa!" He said as Azuki nodded gently with a smile, now not so concerned it was so bad. "Go get dressed!" He said as she rushed off and turned the corner almost slipping as she rushed upstairs to get dressed. Nira and Tomokashi left to themselves for the moment they began to talk.

"I didn't think he'd remember today was that day. I thought we had more time than this, or so I had hoped." Tomokashi said to Nira who sighed gently looking to him. "We got our ten years, we raised a wonderful daughter Tomokashi and we'll continue to raise her to the best of our abilities in and out of work or not." She said before lifting upwards and giving him a peck to reassure him. Within the minutes they had been talking Azuki had already swarmed down stairs with her clothing on herself now.

Azuki wore a gold short sleeved shirt, with rather simple baggy black pants. Forgetting all about her shoes in the process she had rushed to her mother as quick as could. "Ready!" She said as Nira looked her over, then noticing her shoes. "You forgot your shoes, here put these on." She said nudging her to the pair of shoes by the door, apparently the shoe forgetfulness wasn't a so uncommon thing in this household. Azuki nodded sliding on her shoes. They weren't very well going to leave her here alone and they both thought it'd be for the best to take her to see her grand father with how much they haven't let her see him as of late it was for the best.

Opening the door Tomokashi lead the family out, Nira locking it behind them while holding Azukis hand gently inside of her own. "Alright lets go." Tomokashi said as both of the elite saiyans gave a quick nod with a simultaneous "Yes sir!" As they led off the family towards the throne room. Walking through one of the few standing towns of Vegeta, which had buildings and shops scattered about. The largest building in the town was the headquarters which was also the Kings home inside of it.

Walking inside to the building the somewhat familiar desk from ten years ago hit the eyes of Nira and Tomokashi. Behind it sat the same woman, however she seemed rather bored now and there was a sign facing her that said 'Don't read on the job'. Clearly something had happened in the past with the receptionist that had led to something bad. Nira connected eyes with the woman whom diverted her face immediately out of concern for a fight to possibly break out.

But while holding Azukis hand like this, Nira didn't say a word. She simply went down the left hall to the receptionist desk, following her husband and the two elites leading him. Her hand still connected to her daughter who closely followed behind. Azuki waved to the receptionist who smiled over to her and almost waved back to the baby she faintly remembered that was until Nira turned backwards with a very heavy overly protective mother like growl.

The two elites leading the family knocked on the door gently before one pressed a button on the side of the door speaking into it. "Sir, we have your son and his family with us." He said and after a moment Titans voice rang through the speaker. "Good work, send them in." He specifically said it so that the two goons, did not come into the room with the family. The door unlatched and opened up revealing the throne room, which had a large single throne perched at the middle of the room. Several statues were around the room of past kings who held the throne, King Vegeta had his own one but it seemed his had been broken from the stomach up and simply left there. The half stone man somewhat curiously getting Azukis attention for a moment in the somewhat large room.

At the end of the room sat Titan and a few other elites in the room as a safety precaution. Before the door could close Titan quickly waved his hand towards the elite bodyguards. "Some privacy." He said as they both nodded without hesitation leaving the room quickly as the door closed behind them. Now only four people inside of the throne room of the King of Vegeta.

"Hello my son, Nira." He said at first before Azuki poked out from behind Niras side as Titan seemed to chuckle lightly in a more 'gentle' fashion to the young girl. "Why hello Azuki! It's been awhile since you've seen grandpa, couple years since I last came in to see your father wasn't it?" He asked somewhat rhetorically but his granddaughter was quick to reply all the same. "Yes grandpa! Two years! I'm twelve now!" She said, not quite knowing the significance of what that twelve really did mean. "Ah yes, I'm quite aware Azuki. You're turning into quite the young woman." He said then looking over to the girls parents who knew he was indirectly informing them what this was about, not that they didn't already know before they even arrived.

"Well, you two already probably know why you are here. Your downtime of not being on the job for your race has ended, the ten years I gave you have come and gone. There is a lot for you to catch up on, but it's time the two of you come back into work. As we agreed upon, son."

Titan said as Nira quickly was about to snap at Titan, only barely getting out the beginning vowel of her first word 'A-' before Tomokashi's hand lifted up into Nira's chest gently prodding her to stop before she said anything. "Yes father, I am aware. As agreed upon, we will come back into work with you from this point on until otherwise stated." Tomokashi said as he looked over to Nira, whom knew even herself that trying to say otherwise wouldn't do much good. She bit into her bottom lip harshly still considering saying everything on her mind which would include a lot of insults and probably break out into her trying to attack Titan and any of his goons.

Azuki gripped onto her mothers hand looking up to her. "Mommy?" She asked sensing something was wrong with her almost emphatically, her mother turned down to her with a smile shaking her head to her. "Everything is okay." She said rubbing the side of her head gently with her other hand. Azuki just nodded up to her mother and squeezed against her side while looking over to her grandpa.

"Azuki, come on over here." Titan said in a unexpected fashion, Azuki seemed a bit startled but fine with his request. Inquisitively she rushed forward, breaking from her mothers hand which seemed to heavily disappoint her before going over to the King. He maneuvered to where she could sit in the large throne alongside him, partially upon his legs thigh but not fully. "Go ahead Azuki." He said as she jumped up sitting down happily as she seemed to see the room with a new perspective from the stationary position of the throne she was sitting in.

"Now then.. Nira, Tomokashi. I imagine it's pretty sudden, but you have a mission.. Today."

Nira and Tomokashi's eyes both went wide, their hearts sinking at the thought as they both looked towards Azuki. Their hearts almost seemed to skip a entire beat at the thought of a mission so soon. Nira wouldn't hold her tongue so easily now, not with her mind set upon Azuki whom conveniently was sitting beside Titan at this current moment and seemed quite content with herself. "You've got to be joking? We've been out of it ten years! You can't expect to throw us back into it, and on a mission at that first day back!" Nira said loudly as Tomokashi looked over in concern, deciding not to say anything for this current moment.

Titan was somewhat quick to reply towards her. "Well Nira, you see even though both of you have been out of the military for the past decade I know that you are both fine to get back into it. Especially you Nira, don't think I haven't heard of your still ongoing fights and brawls practically every day. You two haven't been couch potatoes and I have no doubts in either of you for completing this mission." He said giving himself a pause for if either of them wanted to talk.

Nira growled under her voice upon hearing such things, Tomokashi replied looking to his father. "Shouldn't we at least get caught up and take evaluation tests before we go out on a mission so soon? I know you have faith in us, but like she said we've been out of it for a decade. We probably do have a lot to be caught up on." Tomokashi said as his father nodded lightly. "Indeed, you will be caught up on all of it upon your return. However, this is kind of your evaluation test. What I mean by that is, this is a relatively simple mission compared to any of your normal ones. It's very short actually and should be fairly simple.. In fact." Titan said looking over to Azuki.

"Azuki how old are you now again?" He asked her as Niras fist tightened into a strong clutch feeling like socking her current king straight in the face, feeling that Azuki was somehow about to get involved. "Twelve grandpa!" She said happily as the male chuckled before making a small 'hmm' sound. "Well, twelve is later then most do their first mission. I say it is about time you go on your first Azuki, you'll have a privilege most Saiyans do not get. Your first mission with not only one, but both your parents and a pretty simplistic one at that." He said as Nira glared up to him.

"Titan you can't be serious! Azuki isn't a fighter, well she is but she's not mission fit! She's never been exposed to certain things Titan.. She shouldn't be go-" She said as Titan raised his hand. "Enough." He said as his hand then lowered. "She is going and this is finale, anyways Azuki seems quite excited for the mission so quit complaining Nira." Titan said with a grumble as he picked up Azuki gently placing her down to the ground before he stood up from his chair. "Come on you three, into the other room so I can give you the briefing on the mission." Titan said as his hands curled behind his back interlocking with one another tightly directly above his waist line.

Tomokashi looked over to Nira grabbing hold of her arm and jerking her back to talk to her. Azuki pranced off after her grandfather with a smile to her face, not much of a concern really to the sassy female who was scared of nearly nothing. Tomokashi held Nira in front of her looking into her eyes. "Calm down, we will all be fine. There is nothing to worry about, if he said it's short and simple it must be. I don't see my father sending his precious granddaughter out on something that would endanger her, no matter what he thinks of me or even you he wouldn't do that to her. So calm down and let us complete this mission in minimal time so we can go back to peace." He said, Nira biting into her bottom lip she pushed off of him with a grumble. "Fine Tomokashi." Was all she replied as she followed after her daughter.

Tomokashi took a long sigh before he slowly trailed after the other three, making his way down a short hallway in the side of the throne room. Entering a door which upon a button on the side slid it upwards into the top instead of inwards, outwards or to the side. They all walked through but Azuki found this door to be especially interesting, it was a odd door. The four of them walked forward and Titan made his way to the inside part of the desk in front of him. Sitting down the other three went in front of it.

He slid his fingers across the table and up came a light blue interface with several different sides to it. He pulled up what he needed by using his finger to shuffle through the interface through the air. Azuki's forehead and eyes barely able to see over the table, Nira bent down towards the smaller girl that was her daughter. Taking a gentle hold of the little girl, she lifted her up over the table to see the light blue interface before her. "There you go Azuki." She said looking towards the interface before her, Azuki made a large 'Ooooh' sound as she stared at it.

Nira held her firmly to herself all the while looking to the screen as Titan began to explain. "Alright you three, i'll be sending a couple people with you but that is simply just basic. This mission honestly shouldn't require more then the three of you, but following procedures. Anyways down to the briefing." He said as he turned the screen around to face them with the use of his finger. "This device, remember it?" He asked a picture floating there in the blue interface. It was the device that was wrapped in the baige colored cloth from ten years ago that they were sent to obtain for the Saiyan army and specifically for Titan. Tomokashi nodded as did Nira, Azuki just kind of tilted her head towards it.

"It's a device that allows us to tap into the Changelings communication, we obtained it out of sheer luck and more so by the excellent work of you two, your parents Azuki." He said as he then moved it to the side bringing up some logs. "Over the past decade, this device has helped us do lots of things. From obtaining supplies by ambushing their shipments, by kil- .. By removing some of their men for our army. We have succeeded in overall trumping them in quite a lot these past ten years because of that and if we continue we should be able to nearly finish this once and for all shortly."

He said with a long exhale after that mouth full, they weren't even to the main part of the mission objectives as of yet in it. "Alright, moving on." He said looking towards the three with a long inhale, they all stood there prepared for more information though Azuki was still quite interested in the blue screens in front of her. Her hand extending as she phased through them with her hand. Her fingers blurring the screen and making Tomokashi grab onto her hand and put it away. "Don't do that Azuki." He said sternly as she pouted slightly but with a long puff concealed her hand away.

"This mission involves this piece of technology once more, a small group of Frost's men are going to a planet not far from this one. There is some supplies upon that planet they are going there to get and bring back. These people are simple traders, not fighters. They may have a single bodyguard at max. But I expect near to no resistance for you all. You can dispatch them with ease and return the supplies here. It is not far from here, it's only a day and a half travel with space pods so don't fret it wont take you long at all. In total I'm thinking a three or four day total trip." He said with a stern nod as he looked to his 'operatives' on the other side of the table.

"Like I said, very simplistic mission. So you have nothing to worry about, especially with me sending elites with you. So, Tomokashi, Nira.. Little Azuki." He said to her, whom hadn't been looking, she was half asleep in her mothers arms. "Yes?" She asked as Titan looked to her with a sigh. "You have your mission, you will be leaving within the hour so gear up if you aren't already and then head to the launch room." He said sternly as he got up from his chair, the two adult parents giving nods though somewhat reluctantly. "Yes sir." They replied as he exited into the throne room they left the facility altogether.

"We have everything we'll need don't we? Except for food and water, which we can grab along the way." Tomokashi asked walking down the road, Nira nodding gently while holding onto Azuki still for some odd reason. "Put her down Nira." Tomokashi said, trying to in a way strengthen Azuki not to be babied now so much. It would get tougher on her after all. Nira sighed but did so out of heavy reluctance. "Hold mommy's hand Azuki." Nira said her hand interlocking with Azukis they were making their ways towards the launch room shortly.

Walking towards the launch room, they entered throughout the large door into the corridor where they began walking towards the specific room they were designated to go towards. "Mom, what is it like in one of these pods?" Azuki asked as they were walking, Tomokashi chuckling lightly to resist making a sarcastic comment to a pretty serious question from his daughter. Nira answered in a gentle way. "Well Azuki, it's a small space but it's pretty cozy. There is stuff to keep you entertained and it's comfy enough for sleep, so I think you'll be fine in it you might just get a bit claustrophobic but I doubt you will." Nira said patting her head as they entered throughout another door.

Each of them had their own backpacks full of food and water for their own specific tastes, supplies for the three or four day trip. Not to mention they would need to drink and eat during the time in the pods through space. As they entered the large room, Azuki was awestruck by the pods and the people filling up the space pods full of fuel. She looked upwards to the room, the large see through window like screen that looked up into the red sky above made her quite inquisitive of these pods now.

She looked about as she began to count the pods that had been loaded up for take off. "One, two, three.. Four, five.. Six?" She asked a bit as she looked over to Nira for confirmation. "Mhm, usually it's five man squads or so but since you're along we have six. So I'm sure there ar-" She went to say but before she could, what she was about to say walked up to them. Three elite classed Saiyans for this mission were going along with them, some of Titans best and most trusted. One was a man Azuki remembered from earlier, the long haired man but his somewhat bald companion was nowhere to be seen.

"Hey I remember him mommy." Azuki said looking to the male who simply nodded in reply towards the group, the other two elites were new people to Azuki however one was not new at all to Tomokashi. "Oh.. Hey it's Tanipa." He said looking over to the elite saiyan woman whom was near the pod she was go to blast off in, she tossed her own supply bag inside before turning over and facing Tomokashi. The two had knew each other for quite awhile, it was someone Nira didn't very much like because of her friendliness with her husband. Growling lowly under her voice as she looked towards the woman. "Her.." She said under her breath before looking over to Azuki.

"Come along Azuki lets go get you prepared." She said as she led Azuki away, trying to avoid Tanipa altogether who walked over towards Tomokashi, watching as his daughter and wife walked away. "What was that about?" She asked him as Tomokashi tilted his head looking over to them. "You know, same old Nira. Not liking me to talk to any woman." He said with a chuckle as he looked towards the woman. "Your daughter is really quite cute Tomokashi, she looks a bit like you. Has your eyes actually." She said as Tomokashi was quick to reply to that. "Yeah.. But that might be all she has from me. You'd be surprised how much she takes after her mother. I swear they're two of the same." He said with a smile. "Anyways, I'm glad to have you on this mission. So be sure not to do anything stupid Tanipa, lets get this mission done quick." He said a hand landing onto her shoulder.

Tanipa nodded knowing that Tomokashi was the leader of this mission per usual, though it had been quite awhile since she had anything to do with Tomokashi she did know in the back of her mind that Nira and Tomokashi had a record of the people that got sent with them dying and them surviving. She didn't believe it was intentional at all, but it did make her a bit nervous. She walked over to the other elite Saiyan which his pod was directly beside Tanipas. He was rather muscular with short black hair that seemed like some kind of hard ass army soldier or something.

Azuki and Nira walked over to Nira's pod first where Nira chucked in her bag onto her seat then walking over to Azuki's pod. "Alright put your bag here Azuki, you'll be able to get to it anytime you want. Don't eat all your food so fast, you need to conserve it so you don't get hungry. Alright?" She said as she helped slide the girls bag beside the seat in the small storage compartment. "Alright hop on in." Nira said guiding her daughter into the pod whom did so willingly. Getting in she was immediately surprised from the cushion given to her by her pod. She laid back as she got somewhat comfortable while looking to her mother who filled the gap for the most part of her pods entrance looking down to her. "Alright you fasten this belt here, it's a safety belt so you don't rock around in the pod for any reason." She said as she buckled the 'seat belt' that each pod had installed within it.

She then began to instruct her about how the pod worked and how it was pretty much guided by itself but could be given instructions to some extents. There was no real needed steering, it had automatic navigation and was capable itself of maneuvering if for example a asteroid field was to be come across. "You'll also be able to watch television and what not so you don't get bored Azuki. So just sit back and relax, you don't need to do anything for awhile. Get some rest, if you need to talk to me or daddy or any of us really there is a communication installed to our pods. It's a channel for our pods for this mission, so you'll be able to talk to any of us during the ride." She said rubbing her head before kissing her forehead gently. She activated the small screen to the left of the pods entrance turning on the television to entertain her. "Love you Azuki, we'll talk shortly." She said as she closed the pods door firmly then walking over to the pod beside of it which was her own.

Tomokashi approached her pod as he looked towards her as she was quickly getting herself fastened and checking over that everything in her pod was stable, working and otherwise functional how they were supposed to be. Immediately opening communication with her daughter nearby. "See Azuki, so if you need anything all you have to do is talk through this." She said as Azuki looked around a bit confused on where it was coming from in her pod, before she found the speaker and clicked the button getting the hang of it quickly. "Alright mommy!" She said excitedly over the channel to her. "What is it Tomokashi?" Nira asked after undoing her button.

"Stay safe alright? Keep Azuki safe too, I know this is a simple mission with very little risk but I don't want any risks taken by you or her on this mission alright? I know you already know this, just stating it." He said mostly for his own reassurance then hers. "Of course Tomokashi." She replied not too fiesty in her reply at the moment with her worries more so on Azuki then anything. She eased back into her seat looking to Tomokashi. "Love you, I will see you when we land." Tomokashi said as Nira rolled her eyes lightly. "Yeah, yeah Tomokashi." Nira replied though that was her gentle way of a normal 'I love you' back to him most of the time.

Everyone locked into their pods and doors began closing, Tomokashi the last to get in closed his pod and made sure everything was alright. After about five minutes past he gave everyone the okay to initiate. Nira instructing Azuki what to do through the channel, each of the pods began to take off. The Saiyans on the ground monitoring the pods to make sure that everyone took off safely and helped in their ways that they needed to do. Monitoring over the pods functioning that everything was alright. They opened up the screen above the room, which unattached from its middle point and retracted into its respective sides making a clear blast off zone for all the pods into the sky above.

One after the other with a gap of time between each pod for safety reasons the pods began to take off into the air. Azuki within the middle of the group, Tomokashi being the first pod and Nira being the one directly behind Azukis pod with Tanipa coming up last in the blast offs. Within minutes everyone was within the air and going at high speeds through the air, as the air rushed against the pods and a hue began to envelope each of the pods at their quick movements up into the red sky above. As they went higher Azuki began to notice it became less and less red making 'ooh' sounds as she looked out the see through hole in her pod with great inquisition. The group soon to leave orbit was on their trip to the nearby planet.

The pods one by one left orbit and were off into space, making their ways towards their planetary destination. Azuki still looking out of the see through 'window' of her space pod was looking down to Vegeta, her home planet with great awe of the scene as the stars were now visible around her in such a distinct way. It looked different then when she rarely saw the stars on Vegetas land. It seemed a bit more nice and strangely closer, but she was in space now. Azuki continued to make 'ooh' sounds at almost every little thing she saw, the television wasn't even keeping her attention right now. All of this special amazing things out of her pod was.

Tomokashi making himself in his pod, clicked the button to open up their communication channel. "Alright team, time to just sit back and enjoy the ride you all know the drill." He said avoiding directly involving Azuki to his statement at the moment. Knowing she'd proceed to get him into a long conversation of questions more then likely. He unpressed the button and closed his eyes trying to get some relax time and more so, so he could think. Despite closing his eyes they wound up reopening, just gazing out the window of his pod from the leaned back distance of his chair while he was thinking deeply. Unlike his daughter, these stars and the many 'exciting' things space brought were not special to him any longer after so many experiences with them.

Nira in her pod, seemed a bit queezy. Unlike ever before, she had never felt this way about a mission but she was almost positive it had something to do with Azuki and her presence upon the mission. She was having problems sitting still and overall it was making her nervous, something she rarely had in her lifetime or knew how to deal with. She clicked down on the button to open up the channel, calling out to her daughter. "Azuki, everything okay?" She asked as no response was given for several minutes, this worried Nira and she asked again. "Azuki? Hello?" She asked as then a loud, squeaky voice of Azuki blared through the speaker. "Yes Mom!?" She asked as if being called from downstairs. "Azuki, don't scream.. It doesn't take you speaking loudly." Nira stated as Azuki nodded in her pod as if she could be seen. "Yes ma'm." Azuki replied as Nira took a long inhale. "Is everything okay?" She asked once more.

Azuki took a moment to ponder how to answer her question, but within a minute or so she had found it. "Yes mommy, everything is perfectly fine. I'm just awestruck at the pretty stuff outside the pod." Azuki said as Nira chuckled lightly. "Is that so? I remember doing the same thing on my first mission, you're probably plastered against the window of the pod aren't you?" Azuki blinked a few times, her eyes scanning around questioning if she could now be seen. Her face had been mushed against the red see through material just like her mother said. ".. Maybe." She replied somewhat embarrassed. But after that, everything went quiet for a good bit.

Eventually Azuki stopped looking at the outside space world and eased back down into her chair simply watching the screen and doing things to pass the time. While most of the rest of the crew did the same thing, or was sleeping. Time passed and about half a day went by without much more communication, except the occasional chatter going on amongst them all.

Tanipa had started up a conversation with Tomokashi. "So Tomokashi, how have you been?" She asked him in a somewhat inquisitive way, Tomokashi giving her a reply of honesty per usual. "It has been pretty good. Peaceful I suppose, not much bothers as of late." As Tanipa continued to make conversation with him it eventually began to irritate Nira in her pod. Making the fiesty and quick to brawl female saiyan snap at her. "If you don't quit hitting on my husband, I swear to god I'll kick your ass so bad you wish you were dead Tanipa." With a heavy growl to her stern aggravated tone.

Tanipa gritted her teeth from the woman's threat before grumbling. "Relax Nira, I'm not hitting on your man. I'm simply making conversation with a old friend." She said as the two seemed to both growl lowly before communication simply dropped off for a bit. Everything just went back to quiet and no one had much of anything to say to each other. They all went to minding their own businesses and passing the time on their trip however they each did.

A bit more time passed before a odd crunching and smacking sound could be heard. The sound of plastic or something of the likes crumbling and being moved before the chomping sounds and loud obnoxious sounds repeated themselves. "What is that!?" The long haired saiyan which no one had specified his name to Azuki said loudly as the others all chimed in with curiosity. "I don't know, but it is really obnoxious sounding." Tanipa said as Nira tried to focus in on the sound while the rest of them seemed to try to figure out what it was. Nira tried but it didn't seem to be working too well, however Tomokashi finally spoke up in a stern voice. "Azuki!" He said as the sounds stopped for a moment and the muffled sounds of a "Mhm?" Could be heard as he finished his sentence. "Get your arm off the communication button. We can hear you chowing down on your chips and better yet chew with your mouth closed!" He said as the sounds stopped altogether once she moved her arm. Finishing off the bite she pressed it down. "Sorreh!" She replied before she began to chomp down on the bag of chips once more. Having had no idea that she was transmitting sounds to the rest of the crew at the time.

Another good chunk of time passed and gradually they were getting closer to the planet, a solid day had passed since they left Vegeta and they were estimated to arrived within under eight hours to the planet. Shortly Tomokashi would begin his short talk as leader to the crew, but before that once again Azuki began to talk. "Uhm.. Mommy." She asked and it took a couple seconds but Nira woke up and replied to her. "Yes Azuki?" She asked her daughter in a gentle half asleep way as if it was somewhat normal for her to come wake her up and ask her questions. Tomokashi and most of the crew was listening but they had no reason to butt in or saying anything that didn't involve them. "Erm.. Is.. There anyway I can ask you something privately?" The little girl asked a bit embarrassed about this. Nira knew sadly even if she asked for privacy, they probably wouldn't mute their communications. "No Azuki, I'm sorry. You'll have to ask me here." The small girl began to get a bit nervous with such a scenario of having to ask so openly but eventually she did.

"How.. Do I use the bathroom in this thing?"

The pods zoomed through space, now within close time to landing. Tomokashi turned on the communications once more. "Fourty five minutes to landing crew, I should go on ahead and begin to brief you all over once more on the mission specs." The male said as no one gave a direct reply, simply listening to the 'captain' of their mission quietly or so it seemed. Tomokashi continued in his talk once no reply was given. "We are going after supplies, Frosts men. Simple traders, maybe a hostile or two as protection for the trader scavenger, whatever the hell they are people that Frost has working for him. What they have and what they want, we will be taking both for Vegeta. Extra supplies, interfering with Frosts objectives. It's a win, win but a pretty simple mission today guys. It wont take us more then a day to finish this and get the supply transport here. But it can't land unless we get this done first."

Tomokashi released a long exhale after his long briefing had been completed. "If anything else comes up, per situation I will give the order then. Crew.. Prepare for land." He said as he cut off his communications and went back into his thoughts shutting his eyes. The father of the young Saiyan girl but a couple pods behind was given a pretty stressing position even on the easiest of missions. One wrong thing could get everyone killed on his part and he had to make sure that didn't happen every time for survival, it came down to being even more crucial with Azuki on this mission.

A short time passed and the planet came into view. "Planet landing within five minutes, planet within visible range. Life detected - Minimal, planet name - Samui. Hostile, deemed unsafe and aligned with the Galactic Planetary Trade Organization. Do not land on this planet without permission and authorization." Azuki simply blinked at the pods robotic warning. Space pods sure were highly sophisticated but Azuki didn't really listen to the words that much. "Samui..?" She asked tilting her head lightly as she looked out the small pod window out into space. In front of her eyes was a blueish looking planet, with lots of white as well. Her head tilted lightly as she examined the planet.

"Azuki, go into your bag and put on what I packed in the right compartment." Nira's voice rang through the communication as Azuki pulled forth at her bag and began to do just that, as did the rest of the crew as they all began to adorn more fitting clothing. "You all know what to expect, so no complaining." Tomokashi said more so directed to the rest of the crew rather then Azuki who was busy trying to squirm around in her pod and get the clothing in her bag onto her body. "C'mon you, slide on." Azuki said talking to herself as she kept pulling and tugging on it trying to get it on right.

As she did that the pods entered the new orbit and the thermometer on each pod indicating the temperature out of the pods had skyrocketed heavily from the heat of entering a planets orbit. "Brace for impact." Tomokashi said as each one of them were securely strapped in, luckily so was Azuki at the time. The pods slammed into the planet one at a time, each one causing a shake of the direct area. Luckily they made sure to land with a distance though that did mean a short travel was inevitable it wouldn't be too far.

Azuki began to make odd sounds as she felt slightly queezy when the pod landed and everything felt all shaky for a moment. "UhUhUuuhhh.." She said as her body shook for a couple more moments before shaking her head lightly and sighing. She had the clothes stuck on the upper part of her body and couldn't really see. The thermometer inside the pod indicating outwards had dropped in a major way, it was definitely below freezing for sure. Samui was definitely a cold planet, as Nira and Tomokashi got out followed by most of the others Nira saw Azukis pod not opening and walked over to it. Pressing the button and opening the door. "Azuki?" She asked looking inside, as what she saw was the buckled in girl blinded and trapped by the half on cloak on her body, she had troubles getting it on in the pod clearly.

Nira sighed lightly but pressed the buckle undoing it. "Come here." Nira said tugging down on the cloak and putting her arms through the holes. Her face popped up in the top looking at her mother. "It's chilly." Azuki mentioned as Nira replied swiftly. "Thats why you're putting on extra clothes Azuki." She said as she had finished tugging down on it, she got out of her pod and Azuki looked forth out of her pods exit with wide curious eyes as she saw the white in front of her. She slowly crawled forward out of the pod as her eyes connected to the planet she was on.

"Snow..?"

Azuki asked aloud never having seen snow in her life, she got out of the pod looking about as she stood there in awe. Her feet placed in the snow, without shoes which had been left in the pod. Completely awestruck at the moment looking around the froze over planet, despite having a sun up in the air it didn't seem to be doing much good. Azuki looked to her feet which felt quite cold below. They were standing in snow and Azuki bent down picking up a clump of it as she stared at it. Azuki had only heard stories of snow, since it never snowed on Vegeta or at least it never had in her entire life if it actually did. Her eyes examined it and Nira noticed the lack of shoes. "You need to stay warm, put your shoes on." Nira said as she slid her shoes down in front of Azuki, which put them on gently without complaint despite her feet being slightly wet.

Her eyes were locked onto the snow and the surrounding world. She walked over to her father raising up the snow gently. "Look daddy it's.. Snow." She said with a smile as he looked down to his daughter in disgust, not at her not at all but at the snow itself. He had bad memories of snow and cold planets especially considering he knew all too well about Frosts home planet. This was not it of course, but still he didn't like snowy planets especially having only been on one a handful of times in his life. Tomokashi rolled his shoulders. "Yeah Azuki." He replied as he flattened out his cloak.

All six members of the team stood there, cloaks adorned over their bodies each one with a prepared face other then the shortest member of the crew Azuki gazing down at the snow with a innocent smile. Tomokashi looking onwards he gave the words. "We have a short walk over to our objective point, lets go crew. Time to move." He said as they all were ready to go now on their designated planet.

The blowing storm of the blizzard that was currently on this planet slammed into the bodies of the group which had just arrived. It was conditions none of them were quite used to or very fond of.. Well other then Azuki. She didn't seem to mind the cold too much and she kept stopping to play with the snow like the little girl she was. The twelve year old whom had never been exposed to such elements like this snow was having the time of her life. The seriousness she had tried to brace herself with for this first mission of hers just kind of fluttered away whilst enjoying the snow. No Saiyan on the team had the balls to order the daughter of their commander, more importantly the mother of that little girl - Nira. Eventually however the rate which they were going was too slow on the mission, putting Tomokashi into a position to look over to Nira. "Go get her, we have to get a move on." Tomokashi stated as Nira sighed. "But she's having so much fun.. It's so cute T- Fine I'll go get her." She said after looking over to the male and seeing how plain his facial expression was. Tomokashi was a very loving father, but he changed on missions. He had to be serious and try not to show any favoritism or weakness.

Nira walked over to the girl, holding her cloak tightly while her teeth chattered against each other from the cold. She reached the little girl and would grab hold of her hand. "Azuki.. Come on let's go." She said looking down to her, the twelve year old actually seemed perfectly accepting of this environment right now. Strangely enough she might of even appeared to enjoy it. Her eyes lifted up looking towards her mother with a clearly disappointed expression - her sassy attitude coming forward for a moment. "But mom.. I don't wanna!" Her mother shooting her a slight glare of seriousness, her mother was the master of sass and this little girl simply could not defeat it. "No Azuki, we have more important things to do then play in the snow right now. Come along. I'll try to let you play in it before we leave." Nira said as she bent down and scooped the small saiyan girl up into her arms, she nodded to Tomokashi whom began to move forward with the rest of the group following in pursuit.

They pushed onwards through the blizzard and snow, believing for multiple reasons it would be better to walk it then to attempt to fly to their desired location. Not to mention the altitude would only make it worse on them really. Azuki was now being held by her mother and the warmth of the two were keeping each other managing better then the rest. Azuki was actually sorta growing tired from the walking, it was a bit soothing being carried by her mother like this in this cold yet warm position. The only thing keeping her from going to sleep however, was a very sick stirring feeling building up in her stomach. She couldn't pinpoint what it was from but every little bit it got worse and it was beginning to really bother her, in the back of her mind she felt something was wrong but she didn't express her opinion of the situation.

The walk continued and soon they found themselves needing a break soon, Nira was towards the beginning of the group with Tomokashi while each one of the other Saiyans, were behind with Tanipa bringing up the rear - of course that had some ties to do with Nira and hers current relationship. Each of them began to walk across a long ledge, one this planet everything was relatively white. There was no real way to determine where they were with so much snow, as Tomokashi and Nira, Azuki in hands made it across the two other Saiyan males behind them were in simplistic pursuit as well. However, cracks could be heard slightly after both males made it across. Azuki had heard it and so did Nira, Nira knew almost by instinct what it was while the rest of the men had seemed to entirely ignore the sound. "Tomokashi." Nira said handing him Azuki, her eyes narrowed as she stood there. "Tanipa wait!" She said loudly before she took her step, but the woman's foot came down and the snow underneath her began to fall.

The snow had separated and fell downwards, to reveal a long crevice going several hundreds of feet down into the ground. They hadn't even known it, but there were this far above base level. It was the smothered in snow and they just had happened to find a crack on this godforsaken snowy planet named Samui. Tanipa began to fall downwards and a odd force could be felt over her body, she knew how to fly and she would of by all normal means. Yet she felt immobilized, she felt significantly heavier then what she was. It was almost as if the core of the planet had a separate gravity, a much more intense gravity and exposure to it caused her to be unable to fly.

Nira despite her dislike of this woman had quickly gave Tomokashi the child, her sixth sense of danger had once more kicked in and this time it was a life or death moment. One way or another, Tanipa was her ally and she did the right thing when it came down to it. Her body hurled forward and she grabbed a strength filled hold onto Tanipas wrist, half of her body extended over the side of this crevice. Her teeth gritting tightly as she looked down to her, now every other Saiyan was realizing what was going on. Coming over to help, as Nira locked her other hand tightly onto Tanipa's wrist. She couldn't pull her up alone, it was a heavy struggle just to hold her and she could feel the strain of her muscles about to give in.

Each one of the men rushed over, including Tomokashi who was one handed refusing to put Azuki down. Both of the large males grabbed a firm hold of the armor Nira was wearing and Tomokashi grabbed a very secure hold with his opposite hand onto her lower armor. One way or another, Tomokashi refused to let Nira fall into that whole and all three of them began to pull on Nira who was pulling on Tanipa. It took all of the strength the group could muster to pull Tanipa out of the crevice, back up onto the snow where each one sprawled out in their cloaks huffing. "Tomokashi your father didn't tell us about that shit!" Nira said angrily, then looking over to Azuki which made her feel bad for her anger. She took her little girl back into her arms, hugging her tightly and lovingly. "I'm not sure if he even knew.." Tomokashi said in a attempt to defend his father, to his wife.

Azuki heard it all but she just remained quiet, she didn't really understand nor had she particularly seen what just happened being pressed into her fathers chest during the encounter protectively. She did feel the tenseness of the area and because of that, just remained silent for now. "I almost died." Tanipa spoke up with a long sigh escaping her lips. "The planets core gravity must be much stronger then where we are right now. That explains why you couldn't fly out and why she couldn't pull you up." The long haired saiyan from before said with a long 'hmm' escaping the elites throat.

The blizzard was coming to a still, the weather was dying down for right now and all of them had stopped for a bit of a rest currently. "Take five." Tomokashi said to his group, somewhat tired himself from the conditioning and what had just happened. He huffed slightly while looking around the environment. Tomokashi lifted up his hand to his scouter and pressed into the button on it, looking into the red lens he began to examine how far away the set destination was. "We only have a little longer to go guys, so be prepared for action the next time we stop."

Tomokashi was correct in his statement, their arrival literally laid just around the corner and it was just a short walk there. The group all got up each one ready to continue even with such a short rest. The saiyan warriors moved themselves forward into the snow once more, the blizzard which one existed had now completely vanished. Off and on flurries were apparently a normal thing to Samui and they were gradually beginning to notice that. Moving onwards cautiously through a calm of the storm of sorts, they arrived to their destination. "Tanipa, Cross with me." Tomokashi said leaving Azuki with Nira and the long haired saiyan behind. The group moved themselves forward up onto a perched position, the uneven and frozen planets had several places like this. Nothing seemed to be a true ground level here, the three of them sneaked their way up the cliff carefully.

Tomokashis hand lifted maneuvering it towards the ground to stay low in a quiet fashion, each one of them being especially quiet at this moment. He then patted the snow just slightly and each one of them got down into the cold snow on their stomachs, their cloaks only helping so much. None of them liked being flat belly to the incredibly cold snow of this planet. "This is the checkpoint right Tomokashi?" Cross asked him as the male turned towards the leader on his left. Tomokashi gave a slight nod while lifting his hands up to his scouter, indicating the time a low 'hmm' escaped his lips. "This doesn't seem right, this is about the time the communication said they'd be here for the transaction." Tomokashi said as Tanipa looked over towards him. "Maybe they're just a bit behind schedule?" She asked as the leaders eyes narrowed.

He was clearly concerned and a knot in his stomach began to form. "That doesn't seem right." He said as his hand lifted up to his scouter once more and clicked the button, he held the button down and began to look around the area while keeping himself laid down. Examining for quite the distance for any power signature in their direct area. All he got back were six though, that was the three of them and the three back behind, with Azuki. His eyes narrowed and his hands finger eased off the button with a low growl. He didn't like how things were not on schedule and his eyes glanced back and forth to both people on his sides. "This isn't how this was suppose to go. We are right where we were suppose to go and were ahead of schedule, the scavenger merchant people working for Frost is suppose to be here right now." Tomokashi said as his hands clutched the snow slightly with his gloves.

The jet black saiyan hair colored male lifted himself up off of the ground and made his way back towards the others. Leaving Tanipa and Cross back there to keep watch. Tomokashi approached his daughter and wife as he took a long inhale. "They aren't there." Tomokashi said as Nira's eyes widened slightly. "What? What do you mean, they are not there Tomokashi?" She asked as her husband immediately gave his reply. "I mean they aren't there Nira, were at the right place and time but the merchants aren't there like they are suppose to be." Niras eyes looked down just like Tomokashi had originally, the stirring feeling of something wrong. They had been through too many missions and they had a record of not returning with their team a decade ago. They didn't like when things didn't go as the mission planned.

"What do we do now Tomokashi?" She asked placing Azuki down as she scooted inch by inch away and then began to play with the snow again giggling every so often to herself. The twelve year old just absolutely adored this wonderful essence that was snow, she loved touching it and playing with the ice cold watery stuff. Tomokashi looked around in a pondering state, a sigh coming out of his lips making a puff of air float through the air in front of his mouth. "There is not really anything we can do Nira, but wait for a bit. If they don't show we mission abort and go home. I'm not going to give them much longer then this, I wont have us deal with Frosts pick up team too." He said as Nira nodded in reply. "You three just stay back here, I'll keep you informed." He said as he turned on his heels prepared to go off in another direction.

"Tomokashi.. They're here." Came the voice of Tanipa through his scouter as his eyes went wide to the woman's words. He kicked off his heels quickly making his way to the location and silently plopping his way back down into the snow. "Where Tanipa?" He replied lowly as the woman turned her head extending her index finger out into the distance. A group could be seen making their way in the direction they were at. It was clearly a group and it appeared to be a large animal leading the group with luggage on its back, clearly a animal used to such extreme terrains. Tomokashi lifted up his hand clicking onto his scouter to check the time. He then began to talk gently. "Alright heads up everyone, they are here and will arrive in but a few minutes. Everyone get ready and wait for my go." Each one gave their own reply all similar to a 'right', 'yes' 'got it' or otherwise similar reply. It seems the mission was still going to happen. The male looked over to Cross. "Go back there with Azuki and Nira, you keep the two of them safe, I'll call you if I need you." He said in a low voice as he nodded, swiftly getting up and making his way back over to the group of them. He switched out with the long haired Saiyan and Tomokashis voice rang once more. "Everyone lower your Ki-levels incase they have scouters." They all replied once more before Tanipa swiftly asked. "What about Azuki?" Tomokashi turned his head over to her and a smirk came to his lips.

"That's the point."

Azuki was only twelve and without much training currently, her limited power level was not very high and she also did not know how to lower it like all the others did. Still a power level like Azukis stood out more then the average animal and that was what Tomokashi had planned. He hadn't told Nira this, but she would probably realize it later on. Right now she was more concerned with holding Azuki and Cross was doing his order of monitoring the two of them protectively. The three saiyans on the ledge examined the group and Tanipa was getting curious. "What do you mean, that is the point Tomokashi? Are you going to use your own daughter as bait?" She asked as the somewhat cold look of the father peered over towards her.

"Azuki is on this mission and as a part of the mission she is to have a meaning in it's success. I love my daughter very much, Nira, Cross nor I of any of you will let harm come to her -right-? So Tanipa, are you questioning my leadership?" He asked her as his eyes narrowed slightly whilst looking into hers. "No, no.. Not at all Tomokashi." She said quickly shaking her head, submitting and looking away for the better of what it would end up and after all obedience was necessary. Tomokashi nodded with a long exhale escaping from him, he didn't like the sound of it either inside. He was the sweetest of guys except when it came to work, he had to be more serious then ever on these missions and they made him into a different man. A man he didn't particularly like.

Each one of the cloaked Saiyans go into position, their snow white cloaks blending them pretty well. Most of them laid to the snow, whilst Azuki and Nira were pressed firm up against a bit of a indentation on a rock. Their cloaks making them mostly look over able with the top of the small cliff hiding them somewhat from the air. This was the best hiding spot in a way, seeing the others were simply laid on the ground using camouflage to their advantage. Albeit doing so was cold, pressing to the extreme snow like this made their bodies temperature lower but that in itself was actually helpful for if any thermal vision was used in some case. - Tomokashi had really thought over this moment well through the pod, they just needed it to go smoothly now and quicker then expected originally.

The group of five, not including the very furry brown animal leading the group from the planets horizon made their way towards the crevice and pick up point for their shipment. It was a somewhat open space excluding the several abnormalities and the large cliff to one side which scaled up quite a good bit and went on for quite some ways. Samui was a strange planet of strange creatures, strange gravity and more so strange landscapes. Most of anyone would never consider setting up any kind of inhabitant on this strange planet for how treacherous it could be.

The new group was equally adorned in cloaks, more grayish and heavy built cloaks that were more meant to keep one warm then to keep one hidden and camouflaged. All without breaking the normal eyes color to where it takes concentration to spot one from a distance, like a scout flying through the sky. The lead of this group was the large, brown fuzzy animal hauling all of the gear and luggage of the five man group which was coordinated around and on top of the animal to perfection. It was clear the most important and elderly man was the one atop of the yak like creature and the one with the strange sharp object strapped to his back that protruded out the side of his shoulder was the guard. None of their bodies were very visible to the saiyans and Tomokashis scouter read their power levels silently not to make a noise. Each one giving off a low power level, all but the one with the pointed object. It had a decent power level, not one that could manage up to each of the saiyans though but it was a threat.

"Alright team, looks like our Intel was correct. They only seem to have one guard with them and he has what seems to be a spear, there is five of them in total and a large brown creature carrying the gear. You all know what you're supposed to do, so give it just a moment." Tomokashi said through the communicators of their private channel in a hushed tone. Their elevated position and the somewhat now picking back up flurry was blocking the sound from reaching the group below. Tomokashi took a long inhale, a inhale of preparation but more so a inhale of fear of the worst. He prepared for the worst, but prayed for the best every time a situation like this came up and he was doing it more then ever with Azuki on the line here - literally. She was bait right now.

The elder man lifted forth what seemed to be a shiny red apple out of his pocket and extended it forward to the animal, it chomped down onto it eating it swiftly without a problem. "Clepto, scan the area with your scouter. Check for any life forms just in case." The man ordered as the nearest and relatively smallest figure to his right nodded swiftly. "Right away boss." He said with zero reluctance. His hand lifted up and he pulled off his hood showing his blue skin and purple lens colored scouter that sat upon his eyes.

Cleptos finger came up as he pushed into the black button on the device, his lens powered up immediately and began to scan over the area. Numbers began to fly as he looked through the circle, finding the occasional low power level of a animal or wild life of the planet but eventually in his full circle scan he located a strange power level. One which was above normal up above them a bit and his head tilted slightly. "Boss, it could be nothing but I think I've got something. There's a power level of about three hundred sitting up there on the cliff the scouter says." Clepto said, holding himself back from suggesting to send Ace to check it out as he let the elder man think for himself.

"Hmm." Escaped his lips before he quickly commented afterwards. "Ace, go up there and check it out. Make sure everything is alright and report to me whatever you find." The man said as the silent spear baring male gave a quick nod and his body began to rise upwards through the flurry storm of snow that was increasing by the second. "Here he comes team, right on schedule." Tomokashi said as he ducked backwards and slung his hood fully over his head, his eyes scanning protectively. The man named 'Ace' which made his way upwards, scaling the large cliff and then over it flew his way over into the clearing. Clicking his own scouter in a attempt at locating the power level in which the one named Clepto had mentioned it.

His lens was a shiny green color and it began to made loud beeping noises while he looked about through the blizzard which seemed a bit tougher up here then it had down there, leading to believe the wind was coming in this direction right now. He was finding really nothing, until he found a signature in a area towards his east. He began making his way towards the indicator which gradually became more clear of being where the power source was originating from with every step. His naked eye could see nothing but a rock, but his scouter persisted upon saying there was a power level there. Tomokashi was sitting on the edge of his seat and he couldn't take it any longer. His body moved forward silently, staying very low to the ground he made his way towards the mans back as a way of a back up for his uneasy feeling.

He kept his distance however and stayed out of earshot, using the blizzard as a way to calculate how far he'd be able to hear a hushed mans words. He kept his eye on the mans position, expecting him to get closer to the rock to investigate it. His eyes went wide as he saw how this spear baring mans hand lit up in a green energy, clearing meaning he was just going to blow the rock up out of precaution like a trained guard. Tomokashis eyes narrowed with a aggravated expression. "Cross, now! He's going to fire a beam if you don't act -now-!" Tomokashi ordered, but nothing seemed to be happening. The mans hand rose and his palm opened ready to fire the energy as Tomokashi began to rush his body forward, out of a desperate attempt of desire to stop him.

But he could see through the fog of the blizzard as a second body ambushed the first, grabbing onto the first figures neck and accordingly twisting with all of its might. The first body dropping towards the ground and plopping in the snow. Tomokashi slowly making his way forward as Cross's voice echoed throughout the scouter into his eardrum. "Target eliminated. Objective complete, Tomokashi." He said as Tomokashi approached he saw Cross standing there over the dead man. Azuki and Nira pushed forward off of the rock nearby, their bodies now becoming visible with their camouflage disabled. Tomokashi bent down as he grabbed onto the scouter and crushed it between the palm of his hand within a moment. He wasn't going to risk it and accordingly he lifted up the mans hood peering at his face. "A Icer?" He questioned silently to himself, the blue skinned man looked like one of Frosts inhabitants, not a Changeling but one of the lower races normally hired for tasks like these.

It was normal to find people like this, but for one reason or another he found it to be a strange coincidence. "Tanipa come here, Rex I need you to keep look out." Tomokashi said over his scouter as he began to strip the Icer of his cloak and the spear on his back, gathering his things he looked up to Cross at his left while Tanipa traveled the short distance towards them. "Look, Cross - Rex is too big to fit this guys body frame. I need you to put on the cloak and take Tanipa down there as the one you found, act like him until you get the opportunity to ambush again. Once you do it, we'll come in and help take out the others.. You two work together got it?" He said as Tanipa entered, overhearing the two from her range. "Tanipa, raise your power level to mimic Azuki's perfectly. These guys have low tech scouters, they wont be able to know the difference." He stated handing Cross the new cloak and spear he quickly changed them out.

Tanipa was small enough to be carried by Cross and rag dolled as if a unconscious body as so it was easy enough to pull it off. Tanipa walked over to Cross in his new attire chuckling slightly. "I don't think that quite works well on you, Cross." She said teasing before rolling her eyes and getting thrown over his arm, pushing her tail around her waist so that it couldn't be a problem. Cross nodded to Tomokashi "Right." He said in reply as he began to lift into the air and slowly make his way down to the crevice. Tomokashi positioned himself back beside of Rex, Nira and Azuki now in the snow a small distance behind both of them sitting and keeping one another occupied for now. Tomokashi monitored over Cross, watching him slowly descend down towards the group. Things were about to blow up, here was coming the fun part.

Cross made his way slowly down the crevice of the ice, his flying was slow and methodical and his power signature was cloaked to be the same level of the man who came up to them with ease. As was the power level of the one over his shoulder, Tanipa. He had four hostiles below, the ones he was going to and this was a dangerous call but a smart one all the same. Adorned in the mans own clothes he lowered himself down as his feet hit the ground with a thud. Tanipa over his shoulder he approached silently. Clepto caught sight of the two and was quick to make the rest aware. "Ah Ace, you're back. Who is that over your shoulder, is it the one you found with the power signature?" The man asked blinking multiple times with his small, stubby little blue frame.

The one labelled 'Ace' which was currently Cross in disguise walked forward silently with a nod in reply towards the men. "Always so silent Ace, it's strange." Clepto replied but shrugged slightly as he walked towards the back in where Tanipa was laid down into the snow. "Let's see what we've got here, stand back Ace." He said as the small icer lowered himself further, now getting down onto one knee to grasp onto the top of Tanipa's cloak, Cross maneuvered himself a few feet away and closer towards one of the other men. His eyes then glancing upwards in the area of which the rest of his team was at. He was looking for the perfect opportunity at this moment and he had to wait until that opportunity presented itself.

Clepto raised his hand and the hood of Tanipa's cloak would be pulled off, showing her tanned skin and dark ruffled black hair. It was definitely a strange life form for this planet. "Hmm." Clepto thought aloud while looking down, the clear elder leader on the brown animal was not moving simply waiting to be told things. Clepto would prod into what appeared to be like a sleeping humanoid creature that was Tanipa's cheek with the knuckle of his cold finger. Tanipa doing her best act of looking unconscious, asleep or otherwise not alert. The icer questioned the woman but he looked over to his leader. "It appears to be a humanoid, female possibly. I can not tell her specific race off of her face alone and she also appears to be out cold. What would you like me to do, sir?" Clepto asked as a long hmm escaped the lips of the man on top of the beast before easing back.

"Take off the cloak and find out what she is first, she could be useful or valuable depending upon what she is - more so who she might be." The elder said as Clepto nodded slightly, his hands coming up as he began to grubbily remove the woman's adorned cloak. Tanipa had to manage and not resist though mentally it was bugging the hell out of her, she desired to kill him for touching her body even in the way he was doing it - she found it absolutely gross and repulsive to have a stupid icer touching her. She couldn't ruin it though, she couldn't move and the cloak was removed to show what she could otherwise not hide. Her tail was now in clear vision, despite her attire that was what the icers eyes locked onto and he blinked multiple times. "Oh my." Escaped the blue midgets mouth as he chuckled several times.

He took a long inhale and look over towards the man on top of the beast. "Sir." He said as the man tilted his head back slightly. "Yes, what is it Clepto?" He asked in return as the small man wondered how to phrase this in a polite fashion, soon locating the words. "Well sir, this woman.. She is a Saiyan." He said as the man on top of the beast clearly seemed to take this in a pondering fashion. He looked back towards the north and within the following moment he gave a swift reply. "Kill her." He said as Cross's eyes widened massively at the words he just heard, as did everyone up high on top of the cliff. These people didn't care who they were, they were going to kill her on race alone.

Every single person knew what was coming, Tomokashi looked around to the others his facial expression showing his panic and yet thinking emotions all at once. He looked around to the others around him and gritted his teeth heavily. "Not again.. We can't have this happen again Nira. We just can't have it happen." Tomokashi said as he looked right back towards Nira who was holding Azuki. "If they go down were screwed and it will become a blood bath regardless, we can't let this happen Nira." He said as if looking for his wife's permission, his eyes locking onto Azuki. The woman took a long inhale thinking it over for but a moment before she nodded slightly all of them getting up from the snow as they prepared. They didn't want to do it too soon and risk something coming up that didn't need to happen.

However down there in direct vicinity, Cross stood there watching what was happening. He knew what was coming and he couldn't speak, he didn't know what to say. The only thing he could do was watch as he heard the order of the man. The small midget of a Icer pulled out a strange retractable blade which further made Cross's eyes open widely. He looked onwards to the man knelt down beside of the Saiyan woman and his adrenaline began to pump, she couldn't even protect herself. She didn't know what was coming and soon he saw the icer raising the blade over her. He glanced upwards to the group high up on the cliff above and his tooth sank into his own lip. "No.." He said quietly, inaudibly at first before the sword was now ready and the man on the beast gave the nod.

"No!" He roared as he rushed forward, Cross breaking into a full speed at that very second and alarming the rest of the group. He ran at his fullest towards the woman, the hood of the cloak popping off to reveal his head and that it was clearly not this Ace character they had originally thought it to be. He ran right for Clepto and more importantly Tanipa as everything seemed to go in slow motion to the males eyes, watching as he had waited too long and the blade this midget held dived forward into the woman's abdominal area. She hunched inwards, blood spraying upwards along the blade and into the snow below. Her eyes went wide and she grabbed onto the sword tightly as she then felt the blade get pushed upwards, directly into her heart as the blood continued to splatter, gushing its way under and above her along the stab wound.

Cross arrived as he slammed the spear he had picked up from the male he was posing as, he slammed it right into the midget of a man over Tanipa as it ran him through. Cross continuing to go all the way until the spear hit the rock wall behind them with a thud. The power he put into the running stab literally stabbed the spear into the rock and left blue blood seeping out of the icers mouth unable to move and dying by the second his hands gripping at the spear that was inside of his torso and shoulder area. Cross gave no time to finish off the blue man, quickly turning around to Tanipa as he lowered himself to his knees looking down to her. His eyes were met with the glazed eyes of the saiyan woman, she was already dead from the moment her heart had been punctured. It was a quick, painless death but it happened all the same. It was not in battle either, not a fit death for a saiyan making Cross's nostrils flare heavily. He pulled forth the blade which was held inside of Tanipa's stomach, hurling it directly over towards Clepto in where the blade penetrated his skull, slamming his head back into the rocks behind. More blue blood seeped out of the now dead man as his hands fell off the spear to the side moments later.

Cross stood up only to now be took to the ground by the other two remaining Icers, which names had yet to be mentioned. He was slammed into the snow and their power levels both rose. They had been hiding their true power levels apparently, both of them were stronger then the 'Ace' they had sent up the cliff. Cross now put to the ground, the elder of a man slowly got his way off of the beast of a animal and his purple strange feet now came in visibility to Cross. Each one wore no shoes, yet were so strange in color as they approached. The cloaked man soon becoming inches away from the male. His smirk looking downwards to the terrified expression of Cross, to what he was looking at. He knew how severe this had just gotten from the face of who he was staring at.

"Let's go, everyone now! We don't have anymore time!" Tomokashi roared as he took a running start then simply jumping his way off the edge at full speed. He made a full dive downwards, his body flailing outward as each limb shook in the wind as he went downwards as if he had a parachute. Rex shrugged slightly and followed suit, diving right off after Tomokashi in the same way he did. Not in a slow flight but a full speed drop downwards, despite the risks that it held. While Nira grabbed Azuki and hovered their way downwards in a slower, but quick fashion of safety to get down through the crevice. Tomokashi and Rex didn't want to waste another second and they had to get their quicker, or else it would go horribly wrong. It had already gone horribly wrong, but worse. It would of gone much worse.

Cross soon found himself watching as a purple tail fell between the legs of the 'man' he was looking towards and this tail came around soon finding its way around Cross's resistant throat, it tightened around his throat and soon the purple hand of this elder swayed off the two blue icers. "Let him go, I've got him." He said as they got off without a second thought from this mans order. The tail went upwards and from the sheer strength the tail held, so did Cross by his throat. His hands rose grabbing towards his throat and the tail which was wrapped around it in a panic. The cold eyes of the 'man' before him staring back into his Saiyan eyes of determination to get free.

A single moment later would the first and then second slam hit the ground, a shock wave of snow going everywhere from the impact of the two males as each one rose from their fists, a crouched position in which they had hit the ground with. Both Saiyans moving themselves upwards, merely feet away from their three enemies of strange origin. Tomokashi and Rex were met with the sight of Cross dangling desperately by his throat to a purple tail, protruding from the cloak of the one which had apparently gotten off of the brown animal. His eyes widened upon realization even though Rex had no clue of what it meant other then being a enemy.

"Let him go! Now!" Tomokashi said in a demanding tone towards the man as Cross continued to dangle in the tail of the man beside of him, his throat felt the pressure. It was nearly suffocating him but yet not quite, holding him there in a awkward position and gravity making it a tight strain on his body while all he could do was grip at the tail desperately. Rex was already ready to fight and Tomokashi was still roaring for his release as slowly Nira and Azuki hovered down several feet behind the other two saiyans. At this same time did the man in the cloak chuckle slightly, his hand lifted as he grabbed onto the hood of his cloak and pushed it downwards revealing his purple head that now turned to the two Saiyans which had now become four. "Or what? What are you going to do, you weakling Saiyan scum?" The now obvious Changeling asked with a heavy smirk to his lips, his arms came up in a cross and the tail stayed securely around Cross's throat.

Azuki's eyes were now exposed to the sight before her, her eyes widening as she saw Cross being dangled by a strange purple mans tail and clinging for his own neck to be let free with his hands. The purple and white man standing there as cocky as could be glaring down their group, then her eyes connected onto Tanipa and the blood pool which surrounded her body at the moment. Not to mention the dead Icer which had blue blood seeping out of it and was impaled in two different places, her first two dead bodies. The first two dead people she had seen, staining the pretty white snow and rocks she had been playing in with their blue and red blood. Her eyes were just wide at the sight she had seen, not sure how to react and her brain surely didn't know how to process such a scene.

Tomokashi growled as he looked towards the Changeling holding Cross by the throat. "Let him go now or were going to kill all of you, you Changeling asshole!" He said his fist clutching tightly as Rex's eyes widener at what this guy supposedly was from Tomokashi's words, he seemed rather serious as well which meant this guy was one of the labelled tyrants of the Icer planet. One of the people the Saiyans had been at war with for so many years, their specific race was the leaders of their group generally and their power struck fear into their people just by a small demonstration. They were staring down a Changeling in the flesh, but why and more so how? How was this happening, it didn't make any sense.

The Changeling chuckled to the Saiyans words as his head then tilted over towards Cross beside of him. "Oh, you mean this scum? You want him released? Alright I can do that." He said as his tail suddenly tightened as if the flicker of his wrist and the echoing sound of bone crunching filled everyone in the vicinities ears. Cross's eyes went wide as the tails strength would of wrapped around at a far more powerful point. His throat had been crushed, caved in and destroyed under the pressure. He had been killed instantly and his eyes went into the back of skull. His body went limp from the display before the tail whipped forward to the other saiyans. "Here, take the scum then. It was dirtying my tail with it's presence anyways." He said as the limp, lifeless body of Cross hit the ground and rolled over towards Tomokashi and Rex. Rex bending down and checking on him, clearly he was already dead but he checked regardless. The faces of the Saiyans, each one adorned a look of anger or absolute fear, confusion was a bit of both on Azuki and Nira's faces currently.

Rex saw Cross, he had been killed by this mans tail and Cross had several hundred power level then he himself did. It struck fear into his heart at the realization of how he stood no chance, but Rex was a elite saiyan. They knew what they were up against right now and yet Rex stood up shaking his head towards Tomokashi as a signal he was gone. Now a third dead body laid on the ground, no blood but lifeless all the same and another body Azuki's eyes were exposed to. Fear was filling Azuki and tears were beginning to come towards her eyes, she wasn't adjusted nor had she ever been exposed to these things. People she had only recently met, yet made a bond with simply of being of the same race and their energies. People she had met were dying in front of her and the people she loved were in danger, she didn't know what to do - she didn't know what she could do and it was tearing her apart as the bodies were hitting the floor.

"Heh, now. Come you scum, give me your best shot. I'll kill you like that mut at your feet." The Changeling said as his tail did a literal whip motion, the smack filling their ears in intimidation from the simple movement of the mans tail. Most of his body still cloaked despite not needing it, each limb was visible as was the tail protruding out from behind him. The Saiyan group was now dwindling in numbers and met with a much greater foe, not to mention the two blue Icer goons this Changeling still held at his disposal.
