Vennel looked at the hologram, as she listened to the queen talk. She apparently knew that Xylo’s threat was mostly only due to himself, and not his little rag-tag group of sycophants. Whats more, she was strategically trying to obfuscate this truth with misleading propaganda in an effort to make the Saiyan people grow stronger. While not the worst thing she could have done, it still meant that the Empire was without a strong enough enemy, and they had to fabricate one in order to motivate the army. How long would that rouse last, though, she wondered.
However, she was unaware of this tournament that Habana was talking about. This was the first she’d heard of it, as her eyebrow arched up she made her curiosities vocalized. But before she could continue further, Habana commented on her use of words for Dirt. Habana admitted to being fond of a few individuals that called it home. And if the rumors were to be believed Zucceta was there these days somewhere. So she assumed that was at least one of those individuals.
Quickly trying to move past the subject, she interjected with her previous thoughts on the mention of the tournament.
“I’ll have to inquire further about this tournament of yours. Hadn’t heard of that yet myself.”
And as if to come and shake everything up deliberately, Shemha burst in through the room. The commander seemed to eye Vennel suspiciously, which honestly didn’t surprise the woman, who just smirked in response. But the reply that came next only seemed to perfectly play into her predictions. Sure enough, Xylo made his move for Beppa.
“Just as expected.”
Turning towards Habana, Vennel’s toothy grin had dominated her demeanor as she felt as though she were floating on airs. Xylo had done exactly as she thought he would, which meant now was as good a time as any to prepare for her own invasion.
“So, what will you do now, your highness?”
The conversation was likely winding to a close, as they’d all go their separate ways, preparing in their own way for the confrontation with the Mazoku Dominion. Vennel hadn’t yet gotten approval for launching the attack, but if things were truly as they were now, then once the moon came into range over Arcose, she’d make her own move- no doubt with the royal blessing for such an attack.

Habana raised an eyebrow as she felt a familiar power signature approaching the war room moments before the doors swooshed open to reveal Shemha, Habana was about to greet the Commander and properly introduce her and Vennel when she made a surprising announcement. Apparently Xylo was already initiating his invasion of Beppa.
“Well I suppose he’s even more eager than I thought he would be, we can discuss the tournament when you return Vennel.” Habana said already implying that she intended to go ahead with Vennel’s suggested idea. “I’m glad you came to deliver the message Shem, that makes setting this out a lot easier since spreading it over the scouter’s is probably not the best idea.”
“Vennel you go gather the soldiers you want for your team, considering you seem to know Kaza and Purika I imagine getting them to go along with you won’t be much of an issue, if the Hofferson’s end up leery let them know that your plan has my approval, I’m actually not sure if you had or what your rank was prior to you taking the throne but for now I’ll be temporarily installing you as a General so nobody will hassle you and your team for equipment. If you’re interested and your plan succeeds I’d like to see about making it permanent” Habana said offering Vennel a grin before turning to Shemha.
“Shem, I’d like you to head up the response to the attack on Beppa. I’ll be sticking here just in case Xylo’s trying some sort of ruse with his attack on Beppa, we don’t have much time so we should round up a few capable warriors to aid you, as strong as you we’re still not quite sure how the ball works. If you can take down Xylo and his men all the better but I imagine very soon Xylo will have quite a lot to deal with on his plate and Beppa may become the least of his concerns. ”

”Gladly.” Shemha responded with a smirk of her own. She wanted to suggest she head to Beppa personally. Habana laid claim to the planet on her own, but dealing with Xylo didn’t need to fall to her. This was a chance to prove herself as Commander in the field, assert and reinforce that she deserved the position. Not to mention she would enjoy taking care of the Namekian himself if he crawled out from under his rock for long enough.
The last time they met she sought to negotiate and he only insulted her. He would receive much harsher treatment this time around.
”I will see it dealt with Habana. Beyond Kaza, Purika and the Hoffersons, are the rest of the soldiers at my disposal?” Although her eyes silently questioned what Vennel’s mission would be, she remained silent about it. This was a chance for the Saiyan to show what she was made of and if Habana was willing to give her command for a mission, Shemha was willing to give her the chance as well.
Shemha reached out with her mind. Strangely though, her mind met nothing but resistance as she attempted to contact the Queen. A small snort was the only sign of her disappointment at the blocked contact. Vennel was being given her own Command and without a word to Shemha. On her way to war with Xylo, she had no idea what it was the newly returned Super Saiyan was up too. She trusted Habana’s judgment, but it still irked her slightly to be left out of the process again.

Vennel nodded as she listened to Habana’s words. The tournament wouldn’t likely happen, based on her words, until after this operation. A fine idea, no need to further distract the people when a perfect chance to cut their teeth stood before them. And it’d be a fine means for the military to prove where they stood among one another. And to top things off, Habana now had a reason to give her the field promotion she needed to give her the authority for such a mission.
And Shemha was to lead the response strike on Beppa, which was good news. This would leave Habana and her assistant, Jala, to defend Vegeta, among whatever other defenders were capable or willing to remain on the home world. But Vennel felt it necessary that she respond to the new developments, and also inform the two highest ranking members of the empire of something she’d learned on Konats.
“Thank you, your highness. I'll make the Empire proud. Oh, but one thing I feel I should warn of, however. On Konats, their fool of a king, Plato, harbors a great hatred for our Empire. Before I left, he told me that he planned to use an Android I had killed there, Cipher, as a means to damage the Empire. Seeing as I was far weaker when I fought him, I don’t see either alone as a threat. But together, they may try something. Especially given that he’s as much a fool as you could expect, he may actually go through with it.”
Her eyes darted between the two, as she spoke, knowing that they’d both need to know this sort of information. There was no telling when, or even if Plato would try something. She’d be more than willing to explain the nature of her business on Konats if requested, though saw no real benefit to a debriefing of her, admittedly unimportant, time off world.
“If there isn’t anything else, I’ll take my leave, and begin preparations for my mission.”
While a proud woman, she was one of protocol and honor as well. So even if she was yet unsure of how much she trusted these two to lead their people, they were the ones in charge right now, and deserved the respect of their position- unless she were to challenge them formally. Clasping her hand over her chest in salute, and dipping into a bow, the woman would await dismissal, or further questioning, if it came to that.

Habana raised an eyebrow as she felt an odd sort of pressure on her mind briefly confused as to what was happening she quickly realized that it was her Mindshield Band doing its job as she felt the device pulling ever so slightly on her energy in order to fuel its defenses. The question was however WHY it was defending her.
Vennel was not a likely suspect to be trying to invade her mind, Saiyans were not exactly well known for psychic powers on top of that she seemed completely normal as she spoke of Plato and the potential risk that he posed. Shemha, however, seemed ever so briefly perturbed by something.
“No that should be all Vennel, good luck with your mission.” Habana said giving a nod to the former queen as she made her departure leaving Habana and Shemha alone in the War Room.
“Was that you trying to get in my head, Shem?” Habana asked once the doors shut themselves again, looking not quite angry but simply curious and a bit confused, if it WASN'T Shemha then they needed to determine whether Vennel had such abilities OR find out if someone else was somehow trying to pry into her mind.

The plot thickened. In silence Shemha absorbed the little tidbit that Vennel shared about Plato and his recent desires to see harm come to the Empire. Convenient he left that out of their conversation. She wondered exactly what had gone down on Konats. According to the alien, Vennel and Kaza worked alongside the new King and Alistair, a known enemy of the SSE. The difficult part now was confirming that any of what they said was true. When it came down to it, Shemha wanted to trust the one that wore the armor of an elite, but Namek taught her how flimsy allegiances could be.
Regardless of her mistrust of the “General,” the Commander met her solute with a respectful nod before Habana granted her leave. She didn’t trust the warrior, but wasn’t about to openly disrespect her. In the very least, she appeared to believe in the chain of command.
”Yes, that was me.” The Majin confirmed when they were alone. ”Forgive me. I was unaware your mind was protected against such intrusions. I merely wished to share…” Shemha paused a moment as her mind reached out to make sure Vennel’s signature was moving away and definitely out of ear shot before she continued.
”…my concerns with your decision to give Vennel command of her own mission. While she speaks of her allegiance to the Empire and warns us of a potential threat, that very same threat contacted me recently. According to Plato, Vennel and Majin Kaza fought with him to retake Konats, alongside the likes of Alistair, Xylo’s demonic lackey on Namek. I hope the two of them mean to serve the Empire, but I question their loyalty.” She admitted with a slightly sour taste in her mouth. Her question about troops from before still stood, but more importantly Habana needed to be made aware of the potential treachery afoot.

“You really should have given me a heads up that you can do that, I had this thing” Habana tapped the golden band on her forehead “is designed specifically to keep people out of my head, I didn’t like that that tree creature was able to mess around in my head doing kais know what, I’m pretty sure he even tried some sort of actual mental attack on Accordio’s protector.” Habana said clearly quite uncomfortable about the idea of the tree having ANY access to her mind.
“But luckily Sam said he could rework it to let messages sent from specific energy signatures through so all we’ll need to do is get it set up for you.” Habana said already relaxing a bit past her revulsion over having her mind manipulated seeming to have no particular fear of Shemha having access.
“Vennel only has temporary general status, the events surrounding her disappearance from the Empire and Zucc’s issues with her would have just hindered her ability to get things done without it and giving her a lesser rank ran the risk of pissing her off if she considered it a sign of disrespect. I want to see if she is still loyal or if she’s just waiting for a better chance to take the throne. But at least for the moment I dont think that’s the case though I suppose we’ll have to wait and see what she does if she obtains the same form I unlocked”
“I also want to see if she really is loyal but we don’t exactly have a lot of ways to find that out and denying her plan doesn’t help sort that out either, now though we can see what she does and with luck everything will be a success and the Empire will have a strong new ally. And even luckier will be if she knows the location of the demon so I can get my chance to rearrange his face for killing Mayze” Habana said the last part accompanied by an annoyed growl, every day that Mayze remained dead only served to further her annoyance with the foolish Demon who had sent him to the afterlife.

Pleased that Habana was willing to allow her access to her mind, in the form of telepathic messages, the Commander still wasn’t so happy about the authority given to Vennel. Perhaps it was a bit of jealousy, the ease at which Vennel was awarded such power and so soon after her return. Or it might just have been that uneasy feeling the Majin always had with dealing with others. Always cautious, the events around Walker proved others could rarely be trusted. Out of respect though, Shemha let the point drop. Habana knew her opinion and Shemha respected the Queen’s authority, there was nothing more to discuss.
”Well then I look forward to her victorious return. I only hope that they do not eliminate Xylo or Alistair, I believe we owe those two a personal meeting.” Shemha agreed, her opinion on the two likely identical to the Hybrids. Originally she believed him just another creature out for what he felt best for his people, but the way he received her when they met on Namek and his recent expansion proved he was nothing more than a slug overstepping his bounds. The creature really should have learned to keep his slimy feet out of the Empire’s way.
”Very well then, I shall gather some of ours soldiers and head to Beppa. This will be a good time for some of the new recruits to see what a battlefield really looks like.”
Offering a bow, the military solute something she wasn’t used to doing, Shemha turned to head towards the door. However, as she shoved them open to make her way out of the war room she called back one last time.
"If I come across Xylo or Alistair, I will make sure to bring you their head."

It was very clear that Shemha was still not entirely comfortable with Vennel taking command of a mission of this scale but Habana was glad to see that even still she respected Habana’s decision making enough to not push the matter much further, and personally Habana had to agree with the hope that Xylo was not defeated in their attack, hopefully, he would be kept busy on Beppa. And if they were REALLY lucky the devil Alaistair would be nowhere near either battle. Habana was QUITE interested in a meeting with that man for how much he’d inconvenienced her plans for the growth of the Empire, the only way her annoyance with him could even vaguely be remedied would be if Mayze returned having benefitted from Hell even half as much as the ‘Devil Knights’ had. “I’ll see about sending a few your way as well, I know for certain Pin will be interested though if anything major kicks up on Beppa before you’re ready to head out I’ll probably send him ahead for recon and to stabilize things, even if he has to fight Xylo himself he’s at a fairly minimal risk since he had the means to reconstruct himself from a few places. And if you could Shem, try to bring the WHOLE Alaistair back for me, also if you need me I should have the band recalibrated to allow you access within the day if you can't get my scouter.” She said adding a grin, part of her however really hoping that Shemha was making a bit of a joke at that, contrary to her actions on Namek she had very little interest in collecting the heads of fallen enemies. The tree creature had been a very special situation, it had threatened all of Vegeta and were it not for the luck that a few capable warriors had been around he would have succeded in killing off the Saiyan race while she and Zucc destroyed Kanassa.
