Okay! We're back!
>>6184266‘...Shun Shun, get going, find ‘em, I’ll keep Majin Ozotto distracted.’ you tell the Majin girl telepathically. She stares at you in confusion and mild concern. ‘We don’t have much more time if we want to get this done. He’s going to attempt to toy with us, which gives us a small chance to use that to our advantage. I’ll try to keep his attention.’
She frowns but slightly nods and starts to move. The room shifts and she’s very quickly separated from you, Ozotto’s voice echoing in your mind again. ‘Hahahaha… now just what DO you think you’re doing, Son Peppa?’
“Oh you know. Thwarting your plans.” you reply nonchalantly.
‘Thwarting my plans?’
You nod. “Thwarting your plans.”
‘Are you?’
“Yeah.” You sense out for the center of this place and try to move toward it.
‘That’d be bad.’ Ozotto warns.
“How bad?”
‘Might have to kill you.’
“That is bad.” And… got it!
‘You still gonna do it?’ You can almost HEAR the smirk on his face.
“...Yes. Because you know what?”
‘What?’
“You aren’t tuff enough to kill me.” You power up and launch forward, swerving and dodging through the shifting halls and rooms and doorways.
‘You know, even if I still wish to see that bratty face of yours twist into despair as you realize how out of depth you truly are, I must still commend you. You have a lot of gumption, bravado, a willingness to face your betters with all you have.’
“Yeah there’s one problem with that statement.” You just narrowly avoid a door behind you closing in on your tail, still moving closer to the center. “You’re not in any sense of the word my ‘better.’ Gohan and I whooped your ass once already, and I’m many times stronger than what the two of us put together were on my own now.”
‘You aren’t the only one that’s improved. Though can’t quite say the same for poor Tien, hah! Really, why DO you and the Princess’ little servant want him back so soon? What about your poor father?’ he questions.
Looks like you’re not making enough of a distraction. “My dad can handle himself better than anyone. He’s probably out there kicking all sorts of butt and making some new friends along the way. Speaking of, I have friends that want him back. And let’s be honest, you’re not really good enough to act all smug about capturing him. You didn’t exactly do all that much of the work.”
‘Hm.’
Now THAT seems to have annoyed him. “What? It’s true. Towa’s the one that deserves more of the credit. All you did was play keep away with the container.” Okay, closing in, closing in…
‘And perhaps you shouldn’t be so mouthy for someone that got caught so quickly.’
