How was it all these individuals as of late were so bold with her? She supposed it made more sense with Conri since he was not one of her Father’s subjects, but that did not explain away the way Zeke and even Celeh had spoken to her at times. It was a little refreshing yet at the same time it was something she was not used too. Ever able to adapt the Princess just rolls along with it mainly due to their current surroundings, no others within ear shot as had been the case with the other two.
Conri had just met her, but he was daring enough to ask something of her in return for his answer. The statement causes her eyes to narrow slightly even if the smirk did remain on her lips, the Princess a little surprised that he was so curious about her. Rolling her neck some Akassa offers him a slight nod to show she agrees, a quick statement accompanying the action.
”Agreed.”
Standing across from him she was more than willing to listen to his reason before starting their little spar, the Princess also waiting as he powers up to his full potential. Akassa was glad that he had not been at his full potential; the stronger her opponents could be the better it was for her. Like many his aura was different, having that personal flair to it. The way it spiked out from his body some almost resembled lightning, the female again reminded of how plain and simple her own silver aura was. Snorting some she couldn’t help, but be pleased with his invitation to make the first move. Akassa was an aggressive fighter and whether granted the initial attack or not it was usually her that was on the offensive first.
Sprinting towards him the Half-Saiyan makes no attempt to hide her frontal assault. Pulling her right fist back Akassa drives it in towards the center of his chest as she closes in, aiming for his center mass. It would be simply to jump back or block the attack, but it was more to judge his speed. Wasn’t that always the way these things started? Testing each other out? Snorting some at the idea of that and how boring it was the female alters her incoming attack slightly.
Instead of trying to strike him in the chest she opens her hand in order to attempt grabbing him. If her fingers managed to get a hold of his shirt the Princess would yank him forward, her head snapping forward at the same time. Her fighting style often sacrificed her own body, but it had proven effective so far. If their heads were to connect it was no doubt going to leave them both a little dazed, but Akassa hoped he would be worse for wear. Perhaps through the daze she might also be able to dodge his question about her true reason for joining the tournament.

His gamble had worked; she had agreed to tell him the other reason to why he was fighting in exchange for him telling her. Granted, he was telling her a bit more, but some of it was not really being kept secret anyways. He supposed things could have gone a bit differently as well, given that she might've expected a different reaction. Conri was never one to let others get anything from him for free though, regardless of who they were. In his eyes, everyone was equal and if you wanted to get anything, you had to be expected to give a little something in return.
Her eyes narrowed, but she retained that smirk of hers, so he assumed that she wasn’t quite mad at him. Maybe a little taken aback by his forwardness, but that was alright; it was fun to surprise people with what you did from time to time. Finally, she nodded in response to his request, and his smirk turned into a grin a sign that he was indeed happy with the exchange. Though whether she would appreciate what he was about to say or likely kick his ass over it was something to be seen.
“Excellent. Well, keeping to my word, I’ll go first. The underlying cause is that I want to earn enough money to buy my own ship and travel with a crew of people. I haven’t decided what to do with the crew of people, but I figure if I find people we can decide that later,” he waited for a moment to see how she would react to that. It probably seemed silly, but he wanted to travel in space going from place to place and maybe either helping others or possibly being pirates and looting them. It was a tossup right now. “So, you have the underlying cause, I initially joined because I wanted to test my mettle. The other reason is that I was forced to join, in an attempt to rig things in favor of the Royal Family,” he spoke the reason straightforward.
She wanted to know, so he would not beat around the bush with his answer, instead he would listen to anything she had to say. Well, either way he supposed he should wait for her to tell her own reason now, and possibly dig more for that second reason. The only issue was if he was actually going to go through with it or not, in all likelihood he wouldn’t go through with it considering what happened that night. That didn’t stop the spar though, which turned out to be good in a way, he could let loose a bit to vent his frustrations.
The first move was for her to rush at him and what seemed like a punch, instead turned into her grabbing his shirt and pulling. Experience taught him to never resist something like that, because it would weaken his reaction to the follow up. When she started bringing her head forward, he brought his forward as well, using the force that he had been pulled at to give him a bit more oomph behind the strike. Their heads collided with a rather loud smacking sound, and that led to him seeing stars for a few seconds. Nobody won with a head butt really, unless you had a head harder than a mountain or something and sadly he didn’t.
Shaking it off, he focused on the fact that he was still in the middle of a spar, and gathered his senses carefully. Launching forward he aimed a powerful punch at her liver, granted he was still a bit dizzy so it might be off some, but the idea was to attempt to cut away at her stamina. The liver was one of the best ways to do that, as it had a gradual effect on the body rather than a noticeable one like the solar plexus. Now he would see how she would react, while he intended to go all out, there was no reason he couldn't attempt a bit of strategy first.

His first set of reasons was nothing that out of the ordinary, a strong fighter wanting to have those that worked for and under him. After his short explanation she starts to charge at him, thinking he was done explaining himself, but there was apparently more. Unlike the first reason, one that she didn’t really care much about, his other reason caused her jaw to clench some. The mention of her family and the unsavory word “rig” was enough to fuel her initial attack even more, the Princess putting more force behind the head butt.
Akassa had not expected him to step into the head butt, but it was just the same, she had no problem with sacrificing her own body. What she was even less prepared for was the effect of the head butt on her, a deep groan coming from her as their foreheads collide. It of course hurt both of them, but less than a day ago she had suffered two consecutive concussions and it was now apparent she was not completely recovered from the fight with Ninjin. Even through her ringing ears, the pain in her head and the slightly nausea she was feeling his words allowed her to focus.
Knowing he was likely to counter attack at such close range Akassa was not to be caught off guard. Without warning she unleashes her full power, her silver aura bursting to life around her. The enhanced state allowed her to push through the pain and heightened her senses enough to follow his movements with relative ease. Akassa could not tell she was almost double his power, but it was easy to tell she out classed him; he had stated it himself before.
Even though she had agreed to stay at her base power level his mention of her family and the idea he had been forced to enter to rig it for them was easily enough to anger her. Taking the blow to her kidney her arm snaps down to wrap around his while her other shoots up in an attempt to latch onto his throat. If she was able to grab him, which she was supremely confident she would, the Princess then lifts him right off the ground by the neck.
The calm expression she had worn before was completely gone, any hints of amusement having vanished as well. Akassa Hattori did not usually wear her emotions out on her sleeve, but when it came to her family she took things very seriously and did not care if it was easy to see. Holding him in the air the female’s eyes narrow dangerously as they lock with his.
”Who forced you to join in order to “rig” it in the Hattori families favor? Tell me now and do not withhold any information, is that understood?” Her tone was sharp and full of anger despite the light conversations they had so far. To leave no doubt that she was serious the Princess tightens her hands some around his neck, but it wasn’t enough to do serious damage…yet.

There was one thing that he wanted more than anything else; to have a crew of people that were all on equal standings to each other. They wouldn’t be taking orders from each other, instead just discussing things, and doing jobs throughout the galaxies. They didn’t even have to take jobs together, but they could work together if they chose to do so, something that was close-knit because of who they were. That or maybe he was just thinking of a crew, but at least not treating them like servants and whatnot, he couldn’t really tell right now. It was something that would probably have to wait until he actually got the funding for a ship of his own, and then he could figure out what he wanted. It was better to not let his mind think too much on something that was at best at the thinking up stage, it wasn’t even in the planning stage yet.
Still when he finished speaking his reasons, there seemed to be a bit more ferocity coming from her. He supposed that made sense, considering what he had just said and given who she technically was as well. There was no way that she wouldn’t be angered by what he’d said, but there was nothing to do about it, she wanted the truth from him. The head butt was just the start of things that were suddenly taking a worse in this spar, and as expected, it was going to be bad for him. It never seemed to be a change for the better, a bit disappointing he had to admit, it seemed that the universe was really holding a grudge against him. What a pain in the ass universe.
Before he could actually even finish the attack to her liver, he felt the burst of power coming from her, not that it was hard to feel that. The next few minutes were something of a blur to him, but he was suddenly being suspended in the air by his throat. Not exactly a pleasant sort of feeling for the rest of his body, but that was dulled by the fact that he was essentially being choked. Albeit the grip on him wasn’t that strong just yet, but he expected it to get worse as time went on. The fact that she was demanding information from him while suspending him in the air didn’t escape his grasp either, but there was something she didn’t realize. Conri was not a man that took to threats kindly, never mind the fact that he was probably in a rather dangerous for his life situation.
“Sorry, the deal was that I tell you my reasons and you tell me yours. If you’d like to renegotiate, we’d have to come up with some different terms for the arrangement,” despite that she seemed to be mad, he really wasn’t in the mood to be bullied by anyone. She could try to choke him, but that would just be counter intuitive to her getting information from him. Although, he wanted to make one thing perfectly clear here, even if it was something that would only serve to piss her off more.
“Besides, this is a personal matter for me, much more so that you could imagine. I’m going to deal with the ones responsible myself,” his eyes narrowed back at her. He would be defiant about this to the very end if need be, she wasn’t the one that could potentially lose family over it. Hell, he might have already lost family, which meant that there was no way in hell he was giving those responsible over to anyone else. Although, he would need to try and break free of this grip, anything he tried with normal Ki would be too noticeable. With that in mind, he began to focus his mind on creating a telekinetic blast that he would charge as much power into as he could. Charge 1

Insolent whelp! How dare he try and hold her, Akassa Hattori, to some simple verbal deal? Her hand almost starts to tighten more around his neck, but through her anger the rational side of the Princess surfaces. If she was to choke him or squeeze the life from him what did her family pose to gain? No, she needed to keep her calm and her word if she were to get this information out of him. Despite his disadvantage in power and position he was brave enough to stand up against her and she could find some respect there…even if he was testing her patients.
”Very well. I will give you your answer, but then you will answer my second question. Even though she agreed to honor their small agreement she does not let him down, still holding him in the air as she explains her reason for entering the tournament.
”During my fight with Ninjin you may have realized he was wearing traditional Saiyan military armor with the royal colors, while I was not. Due to my half blooded nature I am forbidden to wear the royal colors. The red in my hair is the only thing I have been allowed and even that was a controversial statement. My father, the King of New Vegeta, promised to grant me access to the family colors if I was to win the tournament. Sadly that no longer matters for I have already proven myself unworthy.” Mixed with the anger in her voice, there was also sadness, disappointment really for she truly felt she had failed her father by losing in the tournament.
”Now, tell me who it was that forced you to try and rig the tournament in favor of the royal family. I can understand that you have your own business with them, but can you deny that my family has the right to know who this is?” She swallows some before her next statement, not knowing if it something she can truly supply. ”Perhaps we could even be of assistance to each other in this matter.”
Even with the offer of possible assistance Akassa does not put him down, the female having no problem holding him up at arm’s length. She may not be at one hundred percent, but she was healthy enough to protect her family. If someone had forced him to enter the tournament to rig it in their favor she needed to know who it was. Who would do such a thing? It was insulting and a jab at the family’s very honor. What if Ninjin or Leke won and something like this leaked out, what would people say? Akassa needed to know.

It seemed that his words had only served to piss her off as the grip on his neck tightened for a moment. Then she stopped, seeming to get a hold of her emotions and using logic to not crush his throat like a can to toss away. He supposed it was nice to know just how far she was ready to go with this, not that it was entirely a good thing for him. Then again, maybe this being a life and death situation seemed to spark a bit of a fire in him; one that demanded defiance. His pride had shown itself and it was as powerful a force as any other Saiyan’s could be, and it demanded he not just give in. Thankfully, he was only Half-Saiyan and his human side told the Saiyan pride to shut the hell up and sit down.
“Good, it’s not nice to go back on your word,” he gave a playful wink in response. Granted, this was probably a stupid time to be going on about someone keeping their word on a verbal agreement. He supposed it was to make sure that all of his debts were squared away, but that was in a way giving up too. Oh well, he could deal with the semantics at a later time, right now he was going to hear the other reason she joined the tournament. This was something that he was interested in from the beginning, so he would listen and then explain things a bit more to her.
“Proved you are unworthy? If that battle you showed means you are unworthy, then I would say that’s a fucked up family. I think the red looks good on you, and that you should keep it. It is, after all, a part of you. Also, why are you not allowed to wear family colors just because you’re a Half-Saiyan? That is a lot of bullshit; you have more than damn well ‘proven yourself worthy’,” despite the situation, he was starting to get pissed off himself now. What they hell was this shit about not being worthy of wearing the colors of the family? Was she not the King’s daughter? Then she had his blood flowing through his veins, what the fucking hell was wrong with this king that he made it so his own blood couldn’t wear his colors?! Gritting his teeth, he tried to keep his own growing anger in check; this was not the situation to let his emotions get out of hand. He would definitely not keep quiet though.
“Maybe they do, but no one is touching them except for me. This isn’t the first thing they’ve done to me and I am not letting these bastards get away from my wrath. Your family is involved, but one thing I know is that I should be the one to take out my own family,” he answered the question. However, it wasn’t a complete answer either; it was hard to just give away who it was to leave to others. There was a score he had to settle once and for all, no one was going to get in the way of that. “I will tell you, and if you want to help, I will accept. The only help the Royal Family could offer would be to block the signal to the Earth and New Vegeta to prevent it from being known that I didn’t help rig anything.”
That was the secret behind it, he may have been forced to enter the tournament, but it didn’t mean he had to go through with the deal. “Anything else is pointless. I have to work on the situation that they still have my father hostage; otherwise this is all nothing for them. Going with that, if they see me not doing what they wanted from me, then the last of my family dies,” he finished, though he continued to gather the energy in a telekinetic blast. There was no guarantee that she would let him off with just that, and if that was the case, he wanted something as an insurance policy. Charge 2

Was this all amusing to him, his wink defiantly made it seem so. Why did no one seem to understand the image her family was supposed to uphold? Ezekiel had reacted almost the same way and now this one was yelling at her for something that was beyond her control. Still gripping his neck she narrows her eyes some as he questions the reasons behind her father and step-mother's decison. Of course she didn't agree with them, but it was not her place to question their decisions, at least not openly.
"It is their right to make such decisions for they are the rulers of the Saiyan race and our family. Tell me, do you study history at all? If you were to look into the history books of Saiyans or Humans how many half royal Kings and Queens would you find? My father was just in his choice and he gave me the opportunity to earn those colors, a task in which I have failed." Her eyes stay locked with his, her words the truth about how she felt. If she could not make it farther than the preliminary rounds how could she proudly wear those colors?
Even his compliments about the red in her hair were lost on her, the offensive tone he had taken when speaker of her family far outweighed them. "I agreed to my father's conditions and I lost so it is quite simple, at this time I am unworthy of those colors. Her hand tightens on his neck some, perhaps making it hard to breath as she still holds him in the air.
"Now, give me names and I will assist you. Although she was offering assistance the words came out more as a threat. When he continued on to explain his father's life was on the line she felt some sympathy for she understood the connection with ones family. Still she could not back down, not with this sort of information just out of reach and not after the insult he had directed at her family. In truth she was not one to hold a grudge after getting what she wanted from someone and would no doubt look past his insult in exchange for the information. However, should he not offer it freely she was not afraid of using other methods to get it from him.
As she held him there the Princess was unaware he was charging energy, her limited sensing abilities and anger causing her to miss it. From what she could see there was nothing he could do to break free of her grasp and she was in complete control of the situation. It was a good thing she head led them away from the crowds, glad none were around to bother them or interfere.

Being too serious in the face of potential death was never something he was really good at, so the jokes and playfulness were just natural. The fact that she narrowed her eyes farther than before let him know that what he had said about her family pissed her off. That was understandable, he wouldn’t be exactly happy with someone talking about his family either. He just couldn’t understand how a family could treat one of its members like that, regardless of whether they were Half-Saiyan or not. It wasn’t right no matter how he tried to think about it, there was nothing more important than family and the king seemed to be treating it like nothing. He took in as deep of a breath as he could to relax himself; he hadn’t meant to go off on her like that he let his emotions get the better of him.
“I apologize for that, I didn’t mean to yell at you about it, but for anyone to treat family like that; it’s not right. It’s not like you are any less your father’s child than the others, so it just bothers me that he would treat you so differently. I…” he cut himself before saying anything more; he didn’t want to say too much more. Giving anything more would be unnecessary; he didn’t need to have anyone knowing so much about him. Besides, there were more pressing matters for him to worry about, like the fact that she stilled seemed intent on choking him.
She mentioned that it was a condition of her father’s that should she lose, she would be unworthy of wearing the family colors. Then she started to tighten her grip more, which was a sign that he needed to get out of this grip before it was too late. Making it a bit difficult to breath, which meant he was running out of time before she decided to take things into a completely different approach. The fact that she was asking for the names of his cousins didn’t help matters, but he wouldn’t let anyone get to them before him. They’d already taken so much from him and he wasn’t going to let them get off easily from what they owed.
Still, he had offered to tell her on the chance that she offered help as well, and she did technically offer it to him. He wasn’t one to go back on his word either, “They’re names are Satsuma and Kyuri, they’re brothers. Satsuma is what accounts for the brains for the operation and Kyuri is the muscle. Of course, after the last little meeting Kyuri might be a lot strong than he was before.” That was the disadvantage to leaving Saiyans on the verge of death; if they didn’t die and healed instead they became a lot stronger. That could mean a lot of problems for Conri depending on how much stronger he got within the time they hadn’t seen each other. Now that the information was shared, it was time for him to hopefully get himself out of the grip she had on him.
With the amount of energy he charged though, he knew he was going to end up hurting from it as well, more so than her. Still, it was something necessary to get some distance between them, granted it likely wouldn’t calm her down any. "Ya know, I really hate being bullied and threatened like this, after this how about we have a civil dialogue?" oh well, live for the moment; and with that he detonated the psychic blast of energy between them. The explosion of psychokinetic energy pushed both of them in opposing direction and as a result breaking a few of Conri’s ribs. He’d have to sit in the rejuvenation chamber for a good amount of time after this, but maybe he would be able to have something more of a civil conversation now. (releasing charged blast at 2.3x power)

As he starts to speak again her grip on his throat remains snug, the sympathy he felt for her only keeping her on edge. Akassa was a proud Saiyan warrior and she needed no pity from anyone. Every creature was born into their life and it was up to them to do what they wished with that life. The Princess had chosen to serve her family and do her best to prove her worth to them. She understood that she was not full blooded like her siblings and understood what that meant. Her life had many trials in it and she had met them all, earning the right to wear the family colors was not something she couldn’t overcome.
His apology was not completely lost on her, but it did not get her to put him back down. In the end he was wise to cut himself off before speaking too much for if he had kept going it would have no doubt angered the female even more. Still not having gotten names she keeps him in the air.
If Akassa had known more about him she might realize how similar the two of them where in terms of their dedication to family. The Princess herself would give her life if it meant protecting a member of her family, and he was here, putting his very life in danger in order to protect his. It was not that his life was directly in danger by entering the tournament, but the fact he had traveled to Alpha Prime, an unsavory place, and was now testing the patients of a member of the Hattori family definitely put his life in danger. Akassa would not kill him for not delivering the information, but she sure would injure him if that is what needed to be done. Luckily it did not come to that.
Satsuma and Kyuri were the names he gave her, the Princess seeming to visibly relax a little as he speaks them. It was not much to go on, but they were not common names so it was a decent start. The fact they were related was even more helpful for she also knew she would be looking for brothers. Now the Hattori family was always cautious handling new situations and Akassa would be the same with this. It was protocol to gather plenty of information from a distance before taking any direct action. By doing so the royal family was able to be sure of its actions, preventing any PR fiasco from occurring if they were too hasty in a decision.
His last statement would confuse her a little, after what? Her answer came milliseconds after that as a blast erupted between the two of them. The blast was no doubt going to hurt Conri more than her due to their power difference, but he did have the advantage of knowing it was coming when she did not. As the blast of psychic energy explodes between them she is also thrown back, tossed onto her back several yards away from the force of the attack. With a groan she starts to roll over and shove herself back to her feet. Cursing her lack of power sensing abilities; the Princess should have seen that coming. Anyone with Saiyan blood should be expected not to just sit around and let another keep control of them, even if she was more powerful.
”Very well…we can discuss in a more civil manner…but do not insult my family again, is that understood?” Shoving herself back to her feet she shakes her head some, a bit of dust puffing out from her hair as she does. Blinking she looks over at him, wondering how he had launched such a powerful blast, he must have been charging it during their conversation.

Pain was a good sign right now, it meant that he was still alive and hadn’t gone and killed himself with that reckless stunt. Although everything seemed to be a bit better off, from what he could tell of her words she was calmed down herself to a degree. She was willing to discuss things in civility rather than trying to choke the information out of him or possibly worse than that. Some people needed to learn that sometimes the better options in life were a good way to get information as well. Granted, he was pretty sure that if mentioned this line of thought he would be punched into the ground until there was a Conri-shaped hole six feet deep.
With a groan he tried to push himself up, but the best he could do was set into a sitting position. It was hard to catch his breath, probably due to the fact that he just broke ribs and they were pressing against his lungs. It probably didn’t help that he was a bit of a bloody mess now, what with his shirt shredded up thanks to that explosion of his. He’d have to get a new one later; it was still together enough to not be too bad off, it was a shame he couldn’t say quite the same for beneath the shirt. This was going to take a good bit of time for him to completely heal from that, hopefully what followed would be worth the damage.
Conri took a moment to try and take a count of just what he’d managed to do to himself, it was better to know what was wrong to get it taken care of later. “Alright, agreed. Now, where were we?” he was asking honestly, the blast kind of rattled his head as well. Hopefully he didn’t managed to give himself a concussion with that attack, but he wouldn’t be surprised if that’s what had happened. Rubbing the sides of his head, he tried to ease the pain that was building up there. The next time he did something like that, he was pretty sure that he was going to just aim it in one direction, especially if his opponent was stronger.
Holding his fingers in front of his face he tried to see how well he could keep track of things, it was a simple way to tell if he was concussed. “Oh, right. Like I was saying; if the Royal Family has the means blocking the signal to Earth and New Vegeta would help. That way, worst case is they have to come here in person to watch what happened and limits where they can hide,” he was pretty sure anyways. He wasn’t quite sure if that strategy would actually work or not though, there were a lot of variables. Maybe she had an idea of how they could work things, flopping backwards onto the ground; he decided that it was better for him to rest. That way he could try to collect his thoughts better later on.

Upon his agreement to not insult her family again Akassa powers down, her silver aura disappearing as she does. The Princess was still not fond of his casual demeanor and quite honestly didn’t understand it. Perhaps it was the fact she had grown up with the politics of New Vegeta all around her and had seen her father always taking such things rather seriously. On top of that it had to do with her family and although she was calm and collected about almost everything, such was not the case with her family. Dedicated to the Hattori line with her life she took nothing lightly when it came to the protection them.
Seeing he was not getting back to her feet she starts to walk towards him keeping her guard up though after his little surprise attack. In all honesty she felt no real threat from him due to their difference in power and the fact he didn’t seem like the type to try and seriously hurt her, before he had just been defending himself, but that was no reason to let her guard down. Making her way to his side she looks down at him, her hands on her hips as he speaks his request, not out of the realm of possibility.
”I believe that can be arranged, but if these individuals happen to show up here in order to watch you I want them to be pointed out to me. I will be watching your fight with my brother so I would be able to approach them. I understand that you want to deal with them personally and that is fine, but I myself have some questions I would like to ask before you do. Do you think that is fair?” The fact she was actually asking and not demanding made it evident she had calmed a little, but the serious expression on her face meant she was far from relaxed.

It was a shame that there wasn’t an actual sky to this place or he might have enjoyed lying on his back like this more. Well with enough rest he could heal up in time for the next round of matches, he’d have to get passed whoever his next opponent was for sure. Footsteps approaching caught his attention, as he shifted his eyes to see Akassa approach him hands on hips as she looked at him. Well, it wasn’t a sky, but at least the view had improved enough for him to be content with lying on the ground now. Plus it made things easier for him that he didn’t need to sit up to try and talk with her, he wasn’t quite sure how badly he was hurt. That just meant that the full effects of the pain had yet to reach him and he would likely be curled up on the floor soon.
“Well, I’m tempted to ask who you would be cheering for, but I suppose I know that answer,” he chuckled. She seemed pretty confident that he and her brother would be facing off against each other, guess that meant there was some confidence in him. She mentioned about letting her know where they were in the crowd of people, but if he was fighting it would be rather difficult. Unless he could check things out before the fight began, then he could try to send some kind of signal to Akassa from the ring. It would be tough still, but not anywhere near as much if he had to try and spot them in the crowd while trying to fight against her brother. That would just be a pain in the ass to even attempt, especially in a tournament like this, there was no way he could consider that option.
“Other than that, I suppose it’s a fair deal. Though not sure what questions you’d want to ask them. Well, I suppose you can get their last words,” he choked out a laugh. It hurt too much to laugh fully like that, but damn if he still didn’t push through it. He extended his hand to her both as a means to shake hands and hopefully she would help him get back onto his feet. Right now he doubted that he would be able to get back up under his own power, that or he would just crash down right away again. Hopefully she didn’t hold a grudge against him, but he supposed he would understand if she did. Wasn’t like he was saying things to make them the best of friends, but he was being honest with his own views.
“So, do you have plans on making sure my family is safe before going to meet with them? Well, if he is alive, I don’t know,” figured he might as well make sure that his father, if alive, stays that way. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust her, but he was doing this to keep someone alive, it’d be pointless otherwise. Plus he didn’t have a whole lot of intention to do what they wanted anyways, if he could take down his opponent he would regardless of the person.

Snorting some she stays standing next to him. ”I am sure you are well aware who I will be rooting for, no offense of course.” Akassa may have been eliminated from the tournament, but the fact of the matter was that the other four individuals from her home were still in. Ninjin, Leke, Celeh and Truffle were all still in the tournament. The thought almost made her cringe for she had been the first out of them to lose and would not be the last. The Princess herself now expected to see Ninjin and Leke in the finals against each other, so at least someone from the Hattori family would be champion.
”Let me worry about what I want to ask them. You just need to figure out a way to point them out to me or at least make them known in some way. I have names, but that helps me little in identifying them from afar.” Even if Conri was able to point them out to her she planned to approach with caution. Charging across the arena at them would only give unwanted attention to her and her family. Again she didn’t want this getting out to the public; any news that the tournament had been rigged in their favor was not going to go over well.
”As for your family, you are going to need to give me a little more detail if you want anyone watching over them. Perhaps I can even get some of our soldiers to watch from a safe distance.” It was another thing she was not completely sure she was able to promise, but it seemed plausible enough. If his family was being watched Akassa might be able to get soldiers to watch them as well, hopefully being close enough to step in should their lives be endangered.
Seeing his hand extended she raises an eyebrow at him first, but then reaches to take it. With a tug she pulls him up to his feet, not being that gently, but then again she had no idea what the extent of his injuries were. Once he was up the Princess steps back, not planning on giving him any help to stay standing. If it had been her she would have wanted to stand on all her own, a Saiyan did not ask for help.[/blockquote}

A smirk forms when she answers his question with the answer he expected, “Yeah, I kinda figured that you would. You can’t blame a guy for wanting a beautiful woman cheering for him though, right?” He was expecting some kind of pain to be brought his way from that comment, but it would be worth it even a little if the comment flustered her. Well, maybe he just needed to put on a good show for the audience in the next few fights then and maybe he’d get some fans. Besides the lot that was already there, as sadly there wasn’t a woman amongst them, which made things not as much fun. Still, there were quite a few opponents left ahead of him in the tournament and if he really did want to win it, he would need to pull out the stops.
“I’ll figure something out, don’t worry, you won’t be able to miss it,” he was confident in that, at least. If he saw them there, he might just try to attack them anyways, so that would probably be a good sign of who they were. This, of course, all assumed that they would come to the Omega Collective themselves to see what was going on. It would suck if they sent some lackey in their place because he wouldn’t know who it was and would need to try and be careful of what he did.
“Hm, well, all I can do is give you a picture of him. If anyone spots him try to get him away from whoever is nearby,” that was the only thing that he could think of doing. Reaching into a pocket, he pulled out his wallet and rummaged through for a picture that would work. The only real image he had was one when he was still a teenager, but his dad hadn’t really change much since then either. Handing it over to Akassa, he figured he could trust her to give it to the right people and get him safe. While he might not have known her that long, from what he had seen of her, she was worthy of his respect and trust.
When he was lifted up rather firmly, he winced as a jolt of pain shot through his chest, definitely at least two broken ribs. Steadying himself when she moved away, he took a few breaths to try to focus his mind and ignore the pain as much as possible. Walking would be another interesting task if he needed to get to one of those chambers that were in the tournament area. “Well, we could probably try to continue the spar, but I think you might win out eventually,” he laughed, before sucking in sharply. Right, laughter hurt, he had forgotten that already. Damn that was not a fun feeling at all.

His flattery was not lost on the Princess even though she tries to hide it, a small smile visible on her face for just a moment. Even with the pain he was visibly suffering Conri still seemed to be enjoying himself. It was odd for her to interact with someone not in the royal family to this extent and odder still was his rather upbeat personality. When she had him up in the air by the throat he had winked at her as if they had been in some friendly scuffle when she was in fact close to choking the life out of him. A strange one indeed.
"As for you signal I will make sure to watch you closely, but I will move with caution. It simply wouldn't do for me to rush across the middle of the collisuem." This would require a bit of stealth on her part. Many that knew her and the way she fought might think she was unfit for such a task, but the truth of the matter was that Akassa, if she needed to be, could be quite quiet. This matter had to do with her family so it was going to receive all of her focus.
As he hands her the picture she takes a quick glance at the man he was talking about before pocketing it. As a member of the royal family she saw new people all the time, many of which it was important to remember. Because of this she had grown rather skilled at committing faces to memory and Conri's father was no exception. "I will make sure to get this to one of our commanders and soldiers will be set up to watch over you father."
Watching him wince as he is pulled back to his feet she snorts a little. It seemed his attack had done more damage to him than it had to her, but it had gotten him free of her grip. She fought in a similar way although she always made sure her opponents were the ones getting the raw end of the exchange. "Perhaps we should postpone our spar until you fix yourself up. I want to fight you, but only of you are one hundred percent. So what do you say we take a rain check for now?"
