>>5155370Thank you!
>>5155372Glad to hear. Gohan's definitely been taking notes.
Sorry for the delay, we're back!
>>5155330“Okay, ah… well, this definitely raises like, soooo many questions, but…” You rub the side of your head. “Wait, I’ve got it. Okay, do you think you could tell my mom about all this? She not only has the time for it, she’d be able to ask better questions than I could.”
“That is fair. I’ll be here.” Melee accepts.
Keli pulls her in for a tight hug. “I’ll… I’ll be back, okay?”
The demon lady places her hand on Keli’s cheek softly. “I know.” They share a quick kiss, and you find yourself smiling warmly. “Best of luck out there.”
“Well with that kind of encouragement, I CAN’T lose!” Keli replies cheerfully.
The two of you walk off, and you start talking with mom. ‘Ghost Pepper to Momma Bird, come in Momma Bird. Melee’s here and she needs to talk with you. Over.’
‘Copy that, Ghost Pepper. I’ll see what I can get from her. Over and out.’
You and Keli get back to the waiting area and already you can sense things starting to heat up in the current match. You spot Mark and Tien clashing in the middle of the ring… and it looks like Tien’s got the upper hand. Every powerful blow Mark attempts, Tien just parries and dodges, then delivers quick but precise jabs that look like they’re adding up.
Chuu Lee keeps her focus, but Vegeta seems fairly confident. They might have a plan.
>A. Come on Teach, come on Mark! You can do this!>B. Keli, you sure you don’t want to stay and talk with Melee a bit more?>C. See if Fu and Basilea noticed Melee around, and if they’re plotting anything>D. Something else?
