“There is always something else going on.” you reply to her, tail flicking once as you smirk. “But right now we have more important matters than the goings on of the PTO. Right now, we need to discuss our now-outdated truce.”
“Outdated is an understatement. I was hoping to address some of these terms myself.” she tells you, clearly letting you know how this negotiation is going to be right up front. Over the course of the next hour you discuss the finer points of the treaty her parents had signed, Komand'r wanting to change several of the terms involving both trade and military obligations. While doing this you'd reached out to Arctus, having him write down the new terms you'd both agreed to. Then, once it is all finally over, the Tamaranean ruler stretches both arms over her head, grunting.
“Now that business is over, how about pleasure?” she asks, looking at you strangely. “After all, this is the first time you've been to Planet Tamaran in quite some time, Lord Freeza. I'm sure they would love to get their hands and other parts on you.”
“I appreciate it, but not today. I have other business to attend to elsewhere.” you tell her, declining the offer. “Perhaps another day, when I don't have quite so many matters to attend to.”
“Very well, suit yourself.” she replies with a mildly disappointed sigh. “The pleasure room is always open for you, Lord Freeza. The men and women both would be greatly pleased with your patronage.“
“I'll keep that in mind.” you reply, bringing your right hand back to your forehead. Focusing, you reach out to your father's ki, then return back to his world with a moment's thought. But right as you teleport, you feel something grab you by the shoulder. At the same time, instead of appearing in his throne room, you find yourself in an unfamiliar laboratory of sorts. Standing before you is blue-skinned demon, one you actually realize. “Towa, of the Demon Realm. I hadn't expected to see you here.”
“Forgive me from taking you from your father's home. But we have an urgent problem.” she tells you, immediately letting you know that this is serious business. “An unknown Time Breaker is trying to ERASE Karn!”
“Send me in.” you reply immediately, cracking your neck and knuckles. “I'll handle this threat.”
“That is why I called you in.” she replies, looking worried. “After all, the one trying to kill him is your own brother.”
“Cooler.” you say through gritted teeth, clenching your fists. “Send me in, my older brother cannot stop me.”
“Be careful, he's greater than you've ever seen him before.” she warns you, tone serious. But it's your brother, you can handle him no matter how strong he's gotten.
