( Dantalion , Ais , Somatotrope , thread is here! I'm also adding Taiga to this thread, too!) (Koldar Thread PL: 79,719; Voca Thread PL (75% minion): 59,789.25) (Koldar Current PL w/Medium Weights & Suppressed Form: 39,858.5) After the incident happened with the Educator earlier this morning, Koldar and Voca had been recovering in medical facility in the Palace that'd, in their doctor's, Wavr, eyes, need some renovating and some up to date machinery, save for the mechanical androids the populated the room. After being dubbed the Emperor's head doctor and physician by Frost, she'd been going through the machines and calling for dozens of machines and facilities to be attached to the medical area, of which Koldar approved of, mostly, after evaluating the items she'd been requesting while being looked after by her and the androids! Ferris, Koldar's Brenchian cyborg he rescued on Aoi Brenchia about a year back, had been handling the elimination of the Educator computer virus that'd assaulted the Arcosian systems earlier for the Educator to learn it. Mainly, it'd been silent, aside from the grunting and satisfied breathes the two'd be exerting with each action the androids and doctors did. They'd, more or less, been feeling better, but were being left to their thoughts. Eventually, Koldar spoke up, not looking over at Voca but directing his voice to him, "Voca...""Mmm? What is it, Com- Emperor,"] Voca asked him. "I've been thinking," he solemnly begun, "We got our asses handed to us by a hologram... And we're still feeling the fallout from it.""It just happened, though-""I know it did," Koldar retorted quickly, turning his head to look at Voca on the massaging table, "Yet, we're going to be experiencing it for some time, I'm anticipating... We've personally seen what Vi-Poi can do, and from what I'm sensing, he's gotten even stronger! Who knows how strong his buddy, Zucceta, and the current SSE have gotten in the process...""So," Voca droned, turning to face Koldar, an eyebrow raised, before guessing, "You gonna suggest we get to training hard, after what we just experienced?""Yeah... And I wanna get those Mazoku Dominion fellas in on this training too,"[/font] Koldar agreed, signalling the androids to stop and leave them be before sitting up and moving his neck around. He elaborated further, "On top of that, we need to get our own boys training, obviously. Taiga and Somatotrope are to be the leading generals, of course; Somatotrope in charge of the special forces with his Soma Squad, and Taiga leading some of our main forces, but they need to undergo this training with us!"Voca remained lying down, his arms put under his head, with a hand stroking his bearded chin. He nodded, stating, "If that is your wish, we'll do that. What about those recruits? Glaze and Glacius? As well as Doctor Tekuma?""They need to educate themselves on their own, and Tekuma needs to recover after what Xylo did... We'll need to be cautious about angering the Namekian for a while. And Gekido's gonna need a bit more time, too, after our brawl for a stupid position of being a 'left hand'," Koldar stated with a huff as he hopped off the table. Voca slid off the table lazily, wincing a bit as he did. Koldar inquired about his injuries, asking, "Are you wounds going to be alright?"Voca nodded, but stated, "Can't go at the training too hard. No Heran bulking for a while, basically.""Alright," Koldar spoke up, before looking to a nearby android and requesting them, "Please contact Officers Ais and.... Dantalon? Danalion... I'm gonna call that red giant officer Dan. Also contact General Taiga and Soma Squad Leader Somatotrope, or his caretaker and creator Doctor Daria. Tell them all to meet us in the old Palace training grounds! This is the request of Supreme Commander Frost.""Understood. They will be notified and ushered there shortly, Emperor Frost." Koldar breathed through his nose with a smile, looking at Voca with it and stating, "Loving those two titles... They just roll of the tongue! I feel like I should've done this ages ago.""It does sound good! Unlike Chancellor Voca.""Nonsense! It's quite the intimidating-""While we were on Earth, I learned that there was this plant called an Avocado... My name is part of a plant, and the title makes it sound like I'm chancellor of Avocados!""... That's bad.""I feel as though I should the saiyan name the SSE had given me. In their language, it's something along the lines of Violence, or something...""Koku? Isn't there a fruit called a coconut on Earth though?""... THERE IS NO ESCAPE FROM IT!"Koldar belted out laughter, as the two of them got dressed in their normal standard military breastplates, both of them being rather plain looking at the request of the Emperor. Koldar, however, had his outfitted to be more restrictive on his chest, to stimulate stress on the body that he'd experience as though he'd be wearing his weighted robe. The training grounds were just below the medical facility of the palace, located in a building with a dome roof and pillars standing about 15 ft. each all around! The building, from what Koldar learned about it, had also been a gravitational facility and one that was severely outdated in its tech. None of the previous emperors bothered fixing it up, so it'd been left with something that could be matched with the standard model facilities that common folk could get nowadays.... Information to be hidden from anyone outside the Palace. (Thread is ready to be posted in.  )

A blank expression drawn on his features as the hollering and echoes of the workers around him darted back and fourth. He hoped that overloading them with work might have been his ticket to freedom from the lot, that they would all give up one of the more cushy positions in the Mazoku out of sheer stress. But their numbers were too swollen to feel it, every page he wrote, tax to be collected and every agent to be snubbed out was done with quickened haste. He loathed it, he was meant to be The puncher of words onto the paper, a strange title but one he didn't question. Lest he becomes The Punched by Xylo onto his flesh or something of the sort.
Hence when a message was brought to him, he darted from the building, tapping a small glass jar with a spoon a few times to draw their attention, the metallic ding quickly drained out by the sound fo glass shattering, a tad bit too much force applied as their attentions were drawn to their higher up. "Um. Yes hello, I need to be going for a bit. The... Grand Commander?" He paused for a second, looking around for an answer from the group before one shot their hand up.
"Actually, I think his title is Supreme Commander." He said, a cacophony of noise rising up as they started to bicker and argue, all different opinions, some clearly just thrown out there with their ludicrous titles. The only one sticking to his mind was the overexaggerated title given by a short plump Majin, Ultra High Majestic KingLord Koldar Frost, the True Monarch of Arcosia. At that point, Dantalion's brow furrowed turning around and taking his exit, the group too distracted between being right over such a minute facet of a point. He simply sighed, pulling out a sheet of paper and writing down a short sentence on what his next law needed to pass. Get rid of these buffons. He couldn't do it during their working hours, he would have to pull an all-nighter to get this one done. But in the meantime, he was to go see what this Ultimate High Ruler Koldar Frost needed him for.
A short period of time passed, his form encased in a spiral darkness as he hovered through the air, his garnet lights the only sign that this was not some low hanging ominous cloud of darkness moving through the skies. He darted and bounced, clouds around him shifting under his power while the stray one stood defiant, only to be twisted with malice and demonic energy, charging up the clouds with Demonic Lightning. "OH goddamnit..." He recalled why he hadn't flown so close to the skies in a long time, that kept happening and people got fairly upset with ominous clouds floating overhead.
As he finished up there he descended through the clouds, doors shifting in his presence outwards as he took a step in, looking back and forth around the gravity chamber. It was nothing like the one back on Namek, this one seemed dirty, misused, poorly treated and something even he could afford on a weak salary. His features twisted into a frown as he hovered over towards Koldar, the eight-foot haze hovering back and forth as garnet lights shifted back and forth at him, a weak smile drawn as a single meaty arm extended from the cloud. "Hello there..." He paused trying to remember the title he was told, but that damned Majin had gotten that ridiculous title stuck in his head. "Uh... Ultra Majestic King Lord Koldar Frost, the True Monarch of Acrosia?" His features dampened in worry, if that damned Majin was telling the truth he was in for the promotion of a lifetime if he was lying than a kick up the ass and around as training dummy would be all he could expect.

((Thread PL: 23 889 Heavy Weights active! Sensed PL: 5972.25 Current Form: Suppressed)) Ais was out on the streets, as per usual, rounding up dissidents and breaking up fights. Nearing the end of his shift, he was beginning to get grumpy. The Changeling grumbled as he held a clipboard, jotting down his notes for his daily report. "I swear, the next person that bothers me is going to--" Almost on cue, the voice of a guard came from behind him. "Officer Ais! Message from the Supreme Commander!" The guard ran up to him, giving the Arcosian lord a salute before he spoke again. "Supreme Commander Frost wishes for you to meet him at the palace training grounds, sir!" Ais let out a relieved sigh. At last, he could finally leave. For training, too. This was good. Ais was convinced he could gain limitless power if he simply worked at it. It seemed that work would begin today. "Very well then, guard. You're on duty now." Ais tossed his clipboard to the guard, ignoring the other Arcosian's blubbering protests as he began to make his way to the palace. Ais found the training grounds easily, taking some time when he first got to the planet before anything to learn where everything was. At least in the palace. The Changeling entered the grounds, seeing two familiar faces and one who was not so. It appeared Dantalion had been called here as well. Would they all be training together? That sounded fun; a "battle royal" of sorts. Ais approached Koldar and bowed graciously. "Supreme Commander Frost, a pleasure to meet you in person at last." He tried his best to hold in his laughter at Dantalion's guess at the Emperor's title and hoped that his own greeting would serve as something of a gentle reminder. Koldar Frost Dantalion

Somtatotrope ~ [Thread PL: 52,997] [HEAVY WEIGHTS] [Current PL: 13,249] Daria ~ 100,000 PL
For the first time in a while, Somatotrope had left his building with Daria without kicking or screaming. Having gotten control of a new kind of power along with having grown in strength in just a short amount of time, he had wanted to prove himself to Koldar. If his memory was to be trusted, then the numbers that Daria said the new Emperor had been able to output was similar to what he was outputting right now. Though, she hadn't gotten a good update on those numbers since the little sparring session in the glacial fields. She didn't even update it during the Xylo Annexation of the Arcosian Empire, due to the cluster of events happening one after another.
And just as they were reaching the outside of the palace, they were stopped by one of the guards, an Arcosian who had left the palace with a mission. And it was an easy one, as he found the people he was ordered to bring. "Ah, Captain Soma, nice to find you. As leader of the new Arcose Special Forces, Koldar had wanted to meet with you."
Soma stood in his tracks, eyes widened as he couldn't believe word of his popularity was growing this fast. Yeah he became head of the Arcose Special Forces, but he hadn't really spread the word aside from a small few. Before he was able to inquire about this, the guy had already sped off, trying to find the others that he needed to acquire. Which meant that the last person he could talk to was Daria, so he had to ask, "Daria, do you know why people know tha-"
"I messaged Koldar about your new seat of power only minutes after the construction of the new building."
Tilting his own head downward, the big guy had wanted to surprise the Emperor with the news, since Koldar was the first person aside from Daria to actually recognize him not as a creature, but as a person. Somatotrope just wanted to do good by the Ice-jin who supported him, a little more so than Daria to be quite honest. Traversing their way through the palace, getting lost a couple times for a solid five minutes or something like that, before they finally arrived in the room. And to their surprise, there were more people than just Koldar. Two people he had recognized from the annexation, and another being the right hand man of the Arcosian Emperor.
"Good Evening Koldar!" Soma said without really thinking about it at all, still feeling that he's on a casual level with the guy himself.

[Thread PL: 58,121 in Suppressed Form] [M. Weights on! New Pl: 29,060]
A sensation... a tingling sensation... Not pain... Everything is black... But he knew death already, this couldn't be... Taiga suddenly sucks in a deep, ragged breath as he jolts into a sitting position. His eyes snap open, and for a long moment, he simply stares forward. The Arcosian soldier blinks, gathering his thoughts. This room... so, he yet still lives. Xylo had not seen a reason to kill him, it seems.
A fortunate turn of events; perhaps Xylo found Taiga's challenge amusing. A quick look around showed that Taiga had been taken to a medical bay to recover, though he had no idea how long his recovery must have taken. Days, perhaps.
"Good, you're awake."
Taiga turns his head towards the sound, and is greeted by the sight of a saurian being wearing the standard robes and breastplate of the medical staff.
"How long have I been unconscious?" Taiga asks, shifting on the bed so he could place his three-toed feet on the floor.
"Two days. Your first day was in intensive care." the doctor explains. "You're lucky to be alive, you know."
"I don't believe in luck, doctor." Taiga retorts gently. He tilts his head side to side, audibly cracking his neck. "I was allowed to live, nothing more."
"Yes, I see." the doctor sighs. "Either way, I was given orders to inform you that, once you had awakened, you were to report to the Gravitational Training Facility."
Taiga's brow raises. That old place?
"And these orders came from-?"
"From acting Emperor Koldar Frost, sir."
Of course, Taiga should have known. Koldar would no doubt want to find a way to quickly escape from the new leash Xylo had wrapped around the Empire's neck. A short leash, and likely not a temporary one. Wordlessly, Taiga walks over to the supply locker; upon opening it, he sees a battle jacket and scouter.
"Your armor and scouter were destroyed when you transformed to fight the Namekian, but Koldar ensured you would be able to re-equip." the doctor says behind Taiga.
The Arcosian soldier nods, and quickly pulls the flexible armor over his head and into place.
"I'll be heading to the gravity facility now." Taiga informs the doctor as he places the purple scouter on, pressing the button a few times to set the device.
"Of course. You are free do go as you please."
It doesn't take long for Taiga to reach his destination; given the facility's close proximity to the palace. To his surprise, Taiga not only sees Koldar, but an Arcosian he is not familiar to, and some large red... thing. The insect-like being, however, Taiga had seen before, and read of in a short report. Apparently, this creature is Somatotrope, leader of a new battle squadron named after itself, and the being's apparent handler, of a sort, Daria.
Taiga clasps his hands behind his back, pulling at the two weighted forearm sleeves he had acquired recently for the purpose of self training. He glances at the two unknown beings, but offers a curt nod to the creature.
"Captain Somatotrope." Taiga says in greeting, nodding at the familiar pair. "Doctor Daria."
He stops and looks squarely at Koldar.
"Caretaker Frost." Taiga says to his now superior. It was a subtle, but direct challenge. Koldar was not an Emperor by bloodline, and as the leader of an annexed nation, Taiga did not feel that such a title as Emperor was quite yet warrented. Whether Koldar caught on to this or not, Taiga couldn't yet say. He looks from one pair to the other. "A joint training session, I presume?"

The facility had been an orange color inside, due to the lights it'd been using. The outside grounds could be seen quite easily, the facility being more open due to the countless pillars. This area was plenty large enough for the people gathering here to train without much restraint, and even if the building WERE ruined by the intensive sparring, they'd be able to get it fixed and repaired without much hassle. Koldar and Voca were waiting on the outside of this domed arena, the two having been talking for a bit about some of the things they did get to enjoy on Earth the last time they were there, despite its... Negative results. First to arrive was the large red lizard creature, Officer Dan as Koldar was going to call him. Dan opened up with a very smothering greeting to Koldar, and got the name wrong of the planet they're on. Koldar strode up a bit, stating, "Supreme Commander Frost of Arcose is fine. But Address me as Koldar. I'll not be having that kiss ass speaking if we're working together."Next up came Ais, who greeted him properly, compared to Dantallion's response. Koldar pointed at Ais, while looking at Dan and stating, "That's the proper way to greet. However..."Koldar looked back to Ais, telling him too, "No kiss assing. I'm not your Superior. Koldar is how you'll address me."Somatotrope and Doctor Daria came up afterwards, greeting Koldar too casually. Koldar pointed at the bugman and told him in a stern voice, "Too casual! You are a soldier of Arcose's special mercenary forces, soldier of Arcose first! Soma Squad General Soma, when you greet your Superiors, you greet like Ais here! Understood?"Lastly to approach was Taiga, who'd awoken from his battle. He greeted Koldar as Caretaker of the Throne, which the Supreme Commander retorted, "Good to see you're awake, General Taiga! I'll be needing you to be in charge of a good portion of Arcose's forces, after we've whipped them into shape... Now, everyone, please follow me into here and I'll explain why I've called you here today."Koldar turned around and stepped into the large arena, a computer AI coming to life and greeting Koldar and the group. "Welcome to the Palace training dome. What are the terms for today's environment, Emperor Frost?""Hmm... Let's go with a ten times gravity field here. Just that will do, once all seven of us have stepped in here.""Understood."Koldar turned around, while Voca rubbed his head. Koldar looked to him, asking, "Are you sure you're alright? You did get hit kinda badly during that gravity incident earlier..."The Commander paused, looking towards the group as they came in and informed them, "Earlier today, almost yesterday now, there'd been an incident with an AI turned rogue computer virus that messed with these panels that apparently could manipulate the gravity in a closed environment. The experience was to have myself and Voca here learn a powerful technique each of the Emperors before me to learn, which put us into a dangerous situation... It had me thinking that we need to be more prepared for the battles to come."He rose four fingers up, singling out his fingers by widely splaying them, "There's 4 issues we have, 2 are individuals and 2 are entire forces. They're related, but allow me to start. Firstly, there's the SSE, our most immediate threat. We don't have a scope of their power at the moment, but the last time they attacked a powerful planet, the Earth which I'll be getting to shortly, the Earth had to summon every powerful tool they had to repel the assault! Many casualties were had on the planet, even despite this. Number 2 is Zucceta. From what I hear, she's on Earth and no longer Queen, but she is still an available asset to the SSE! She's friends with Vi-Poi, number 3, who is also in charge of the Planet Earth, number four, and appeared to be friends with Zucceta, last I saw the two genocidal bastards in the same place. I was treated like canon fodder in my most powerful state and had to undergo medical issues due to a strain on my heart. We do not need to worry about the Tree that sucks planets dry, but Zucceta's continued existence and involvement with both powerful nations means we must train... Which is why I've called you here today."( Dantalion)

An audible grind was heard from beneath the misty haze, his features furrowing and twisted in anger. Goddamn... Majin gonna have a fun time later tonight... He thought to himself his voice twisting and morphing with confidence as he spoke, "My apologies sir. Was never told what your title was and..." He paused if he was a lesser man he might tell him who had said such an outlandish lie. But he was, for now, a better man than that and decided using him as a personal training dummy was punishment enough. "It doesn't matter." He dismissed the subject as the others slowly rolled into the room watching and sizing up everyone who walked into the room.
In some small capacity, he had seen them all before, though the first one being an old compatriot. Ais, at least he was on good terms with him. With the whole mistake of arse kissing and not knowing where he stood with Xylo, it was good to know there was someone in the ranks he could trust. Koldar seemed to make it a point that he had in some capacity insulted him, Dantalion's hand raised in the midst as he mimicked him droning on. Good thing he was hidden behind the mist otherwise he might have been in for an ass kicking. But than Koldar changed his tune in an instant. He was told to greet him more like an equal than a superior, which made to some extent since. Manufacturing such an environment was a good way to foster loyalty.
Next straddled in the bug person and their doctor. He had been encountering that duo more often than he thought he would on the planet, coming in with a somewhat more casual approach than Dantalion, but was seemingly quickly reprimanded for such behaviour. Oh goddamnit. He thought to himself, now they were acting too casual. He tried to pinpoint where he wanted them to be at, treat him like an equal, but not at a level where they were comfortable talking. Okay... So he wants us to talk to him like some acquaintance in the workplace. Not too casual but not too much brown nosing. Geez, that's a fine line. He thought to himself, bringing up a finger to the bridge of where his nose would be rubbing it tentatively as he tried to figure out how to approach in such a manner.
Next up came the red skinned Arcosian, who he was still fairly sure had some drop of Demon blood in their somewhere considering he could see himself a little in there. Must have been the horns. Or being so disconnected from the Demon Realm he had simply forgotten what one really looks like. It seemed this one knew his place and how to address the man. So far everyone else had been a swing and a miss yet this one managed to nail the introduction. Okay, so follow his lead. Right. He thought to himself, letting loose a sigh before Koldar requested the lot of them to follow him towards some large arena.
Dantalion watched as life flared around him,t he whizzing sound of electricity prepping up as the robotic tune came to life, enquiring what Koldar Frost needed. A ten times session. Again? This was the third time he had done it and looking around he was sure they had all gone through times ten Gravity room before. "Ah, Koldar I don't mean to be a nuisance but has everyone else already gone through times ten? Because if so we might be able to press this up to times twenty." He stated, looking over at everyone. Hell, if they were here they might as well get the most out of it, see if everyone else has already gone through the trials ten. He didn't know what his reaction might be, he had so far made two bad impressions. Him acting out with the Gekido incident, and now with him having his trust betrayed by a majin.
He took a back seat, skulking a little back to let the other three deal with the situation. if he had made a fool of himself than he wasn't going to stand at the brunt end of the conversation. As Koldar spoke he brought up good points. Those being putting him into the perspective of how screwed they really were. Dantalion piped up, he couldn't let it go on about the situation with Vi. He might as well inform him of what had occurred, or at least, what he had heard from extensions in the army. "From what I know Koldar, Vi-Poi shouldn't be any trouble. Xylo and her came to an accord of sorts that meant that as long as we do not mess with Earth than they shall stay out of our affairs." He stated rather bluntly, towering over the rest of the group as he spoke, Koldar Frost | Ais | @taiga | Somatotrope

Post by Ais on May 15, 2017 5:39:22 GMT
Ais stared blankly at the Emperor for a moment. 'Such... an undisciplined way to go about things. Interesting.' Ais was used to the typical pecking order; those below showing deference to those above. Though he hated the idea of being below, the Changeling had lately come to accept that he was no longer on top of the world; the Saiyans had made sure of that. But Ais intended to claw his way back up. Not only that, he was going to make his line even stronger than ever. When he returned to Kabocha, it would be as a conqueror. This time, things would be different. He'd have Xylo with him. Dantalion too, hopefully. Not only that, this time, he'd be stronger. A lot stronger. He made the mistake of underestimating Saiyans when they attacked the capitol. He would not make that same mistake twice. They would avenge what Ais lost and destroy Saiyan influence in the galaxy. Ais would stake his honor on it. He decided to take being left out of the invasion of Beppa as an opportunity to train for this main goal. No use filling up on appetizers before the main course. Ais looked over at Somatotrope as he and his doctor... friend (?) approached. He recognized the bio-android from when they took Arcose. If memory served, the Changeling was spending the better part of their meeting trying to keep Soma from turning Tomoka into paste after the incident with his pod. Not long after, another familiar face showed itself; Taiga. The one who fought Xylo. It seemed he might get to test the other Arcosian's power for himself. When they were all led into the gravity chamber, Ais scanned the area, impressed. "My, certainly a large chamber you have here." The tech looked old, but it would serve their purposes. When the Emperor mentioned they would be starting at times ten gravity, Ais didn't care too much. He had already trained at that level before, but he figured they could work their way up. Especially if the others had not yet done this level. Ais piped up after Dantalion spoke. "I have gone through training at times ten as well. I would like to echo Dantalion's sentiment. If everyone here has already gone through such training, it might be more beneficial to up the gravity to times twenty." Koldar addressed them all once they filed into the chamber, speaking of their current situation. Ais listened in, taking this moment to get caught up on the various goings on of the galaxy. He heard of Zucceta before, but he hadn't heard of Vi-Poi until he paid them a visit. That was putting it kindly. He was out at the moment, but the Changeling heard that the android gave Xylo quite a thrashing. He wasn't sure he believed most of the story. It made Vi-Poi out to be pretty strong. Then again, he thought his father was the most powerful being in the universe until he met Xylo. It isn't all that strange to think that there is another out there with strength even greater than his. Ais was happy to hear that as long as they stayed away from Earth, they wouldn't have to worry about Vi-Poi. But even then, he was sure that was only temporary. The strongest could only remain the strongest for so long. One of them would have to surpass that Android, and he knew that with his peoples' incredible strength and their natural ability to leapfrog even the most powerful with enough effort, it would be one of them. Of course. But Ais couldn't care less about Vi-Poi at the moment. He wasn't going to interfere. That was enough for the Arcosian lord. Zucceta was what interested him. A former Saiyan Queen? What happened to make her give up that power? A Saiyan wouldn't just give up power of their own volition, would they? The monkeys with power were like a dog with their bone. They just keep chewing on it and never let anyone within arm's reach of it. Somatotrope

Giving his greetings, the giant creation winced at the harsh words of the stand in Emperor, as he went around to each person in the room and telling them all how much they messed up in approaching him. It seemed that Koldar had deep set notions about a militaristic style, and that with the amount of times that Soma and him met and bonded that rank comes before friends. Though, what was odd was that he was called General Soma, because the way it was said was rather odd in the first place. In his eyes, his name didn't befit the title of General. Interjecting, he requests after saying, "Alright, apologies Koldar.... Er, Supreme Commander Koldar? Um... Is it fine if I can go by the title of Captain Soma? Just has better ring to it."
Daria just stood beside him giving him a baffled look, wondering why her creation preferred a lower echelon of rank. Yes it did have a better ring to it, but it felt like something was off. She didn't give it too much thought as she could understand her creation not acclimated to the style. Moving on as usual, it seemed that another person had arrived by the name of Taiga, not like Daria nor Somatotrope knew him. Seriously, why is it that pretty much everyone seemed to know him and yet the opposite is true for Soma towards everyone else!? And it seems he had some form of connection with Koldar. Meekly nodding, Soma said to him, "G-Greetings to you do.... ... ... Erm, I don't know your name..."
He was rather embarrassed to admit this fact, but before either could continue speaking, Koldar started to lead the group to a new room while going off on a tangent. Somatotrope at least already knew of the leader of Earth, Vi-Poi, only because of his little history lesson with Daria about Namek, which gave him some sympathy for Xylo. Seriously, it's hard to not get stingy and angry all the time if your planet always becomes a battle ground or a target of some sort. But he didn't know about Zucceta, as the big bug was only informed about the most recent events, which were up to when Habana took the throne. And if this Zucceta was as strong as she was gutsy to try and invade Earth, the most populated planet in the Solar System; then things were seriously fucked.
Though Soma had his concerns about these events, Danta was the first to try and quell the issue about Vi-Poi. And following him up was the red skinned Brenchian Doctor herself, as she admitted, "Well, if the reports are to be believed, Earth sees itself as the heroes of the galaxy, but don't do anything until they get involved. What with their planet draining tyrant going around, Earth didn't even blink in assisting us or others. Heck, if anything, we could possibly see Earth as a potential ally if we tell them how history may in fact repeat itself. I mean, they are going around conquering planets again, and it's entirely possible they could in fact target Earth in the near future. But this is all supposition, a theory if you will."
Somatotrope couldn't help but nod about that logic, as habits are hard to break off. The next topic segue came from the Arcosian whom allied himself with the Mazoku Dominion, who started talking about how they should bump up the gravity levels higher, a notion that was brought up by Big Red himself. Somatotrope would have been perfectly okay with this, as evidenced by his silence, but Daria spoke up once more but in a cockier tone this time around, "Normally I would be okay with whatever gravity levels you can give. Calculations say I can withstand up to x200 of Arcose's gravity, but my body has hit its peak and training doesn't benefit me anymore.... BUT Somatotrope is still a greenhorn, hasn't even felt the crushing pressure of new layers of gravity. He'd break, so we will insist on being in a x10 gravity."

Taiga listens intently to Koldar, and then to the replies of his compatriot, and the two Dominion soldiers.
"In all truth, I have never undergone gravity training myself." Taiga says clearly, though more to the group than to anyone in particular. "I would be open to higher settings, but only once I have experienced and grow used to the first setting."
Taiga looks squarely at Koldar.
"In regards to the planet Earth; that planet is not any of our concern, nor should those who reside there be." Taiga replies, his deep voice stern. "I understand to some degree what the former Queen Zucceta is capable of. She was able to singlehandedly overpower Empress Wyntre, and likely any other of our forces unlucky enough to encounter her. And when I was... defeated, on Kanassa, I found there to be an overwhelming force under her command. A shapeshifting being with a battle rating over four hundred thousand, as well as a Super Saiyan with a power likely in the millions."
Taiga unclasps his hands and crosses his arms over his chest.
"While it is necessary to grow our powers, it will not be in our mutual best interests to draw attention." Taiga continues. "But if Zucceta is no longer the ruler of the Saiyans, we need to focus on surpassing them first. If you intend to go after the likes of Zucceta, do so either at a much later time, or alone. I am not particularly interested in earning her ire to the point of her feeling the need to return and make an example of us; which would likely mean complete extermination this time."
Despite the slight bravado, Taiga was now trying to let the thought of his sudden leap in rank to sink in. Koldar Frost

Koldar was asked from Ais and Dantalion about increasing the force to twenty times, while Daria boasted a claim of two hundred times standard gravity fields! However, Daria, and on top of that, Taiga insisted for ten times, for both Taiga and Somatotrope hadn't undergone the stresses of gravity. The Supreme Commander pointed to Somatotrope and Taiga, stating, "Seems that we'll have to look to ten times gravity with their statements then... Computer, activate the gravitational field.""Activating." A barrier would first form around the roof and entry points of the training grounds, before a device at the very top of the building that looked like a satellite dish hanging upside down pulsed a rippling energy out that caused the air to become greatly heavy! Voca and Koldar were used to this force, and so were Ais, Dantallion, and Daria were; but Somatotrope and Taiga were bound to feel the pressure! They were going to need some time to adjust before they could engage in sparring. "I'm gonna go stretch over here while you guys chit chat for a bit... General Taiga, Captain Somatotrope, I'll be assisting you adjust to the gravity before engaging we all engage in the sparring," Chancellor Voca spoke with a smile, making way over next to them. Koldar nodded, suggesting to the people there, "While you may feel no concern for this, keep in mind that Zucceta is, as you say, the Former Queen. She will more than likely have allies in the SSE she cares for, which poses a risk to the operations of the Mazoku Dominion AND the annexed Arcosian Empire! While it is good to hear that bastard android insists he won't act, we've seen many rogue elements show up from the Earth. Preparation of the unexpected is always best. I'm sure your lord has learned this, himself. You each are strong soldiers, but like me are not nearly strong enough! In fact, had Xylo not stopped Captain Somatotrope's squad member with that strange technique of his, there would have been unnecessary damage to everyone there. Even I would have been beaten by her, had she chose to turn her gaze to us!"( Dantalion)

Ha paused as Ais, Somatotrope and Taiga all gave out their concerns, Ais was in the same state as him, unphased by the pressures, whilst Somatotrope and Taiga had both not been all too exposed to the climates of the Gravity, forcing him to once again be stuck in the limbo of ten times. Oh goddamnit... This is the third time I have had to do this level. At this point, he doubted going through it would be all that beneficial, he might have had more to gain from simply doing a couple laps in here than spar with everyone else in the room. But there was always some benefit. He now got to see Somatotrope and Koldar in action. Even more watching as Taiga got into a fight more around his level he assumed, things should prove to be quite the insight to the lot of them.
Koldar followed up with a fair enough point. Zuccetta had allies but in all fairness, if she was so attached to them, she would never have had abandoned them. Though if she did join, then what really was the point of this war. The Mazoku and Arcosian Empire would fall beneath their boots, the struggle like a caterpillar trying to worm its way from a lion's grasp. Hell if Vi-Poi alone joined the war on the Solar Saiyan Empire's side, then why bother. It was a doomed fight, sure the odds were already stacked against them, and every ally drawn to the Solar Saiyan Empire only stacked the deck further in their favour. But Vi-Poi joining against them. Well, they might as well just skip the formalities and just set Namek up as a war zone, complementary Artillery and all.
Dantalion brought up the point of the strange android who seemingly shifted into an Arcosian due to Xylo's spittle. "Lord Koldar, if this element of Somatotrope's subordinate was all that much of a threat." He paused, a hand motioning towards Somatotrope, "I am sure the Captain here could keep them in check. And if you were incapable of keeping her under control. Well, I do not mean to brag. But the Makyo star was shining and I was only at an eighth of my full power the entire time. Also. We need to deal with them soon." He paused, letting everyone else get their feelings across, he didn't want to bring up his Power Level, he preferred to keep that as a hidden quantity, but it seemed Koldar was quite obsessed with Power Level's, even though a clever wit and ample amounts of Guile could easily make up where you lacked.

Ais felt the air suddenly become very heavy with the familiar feeling of the increased gravity. He could feel the resistance, but it was far less debilitating than before. Ais was fully acclimated to this gravity. Preparing for training, Ais removed his weighted armor, dropping it somewhere out of the way with a heavy thud. The Changeling stretched for a moment to warm up while the others spoke, throwing a flurry of punches and kicks at the air to test his combat performance. It was unbelievable. Not long ago, he could hardly move in this gravity. He still listened to the others as they spoke. The topic of conversation seemed to turn to that strange android that tried to challenge Xylo when they took over the planet.
If that android really was that much of a threat, Ais agreed with Dantalion that Somatotrope should be able to rein them in. Unless there was a large difference in power. If that was the case, why was Soma even in charge? Ais didn't believe that those who can't hold on to power should keep it. If you can't keep your men in check, you need to get someone who can. Ais didn't realize the hypocrisy in that belief, however. The same thing could apply to him. Finishing his warm up, he went back to the group. It appeared that Voca was going to take Soma and Taiga to get used to the gravity. He wished he got an opportunity like that when he first took part in gravity training. Nope, he had to take a beating from Xylo himself to get used to the gravity.
In all honesty, that was probably the best way. He was forced to think on his feet while he had a huge disadvantage. He certainly learned much from that fight. He hoped he could provide a decent challenge for his allies so that they might learn as well.

It wasn't long after everyone had said their peace before the activation of the chamber, old antique like doodads jutting out from the ceiling as barriers were formed along the exits of the building. And what Soma though was going to suck, did much more than he had anticipated. While Daria stood rather steadfast, completely unaffected by the new gravity, Soma was brought straight down to knee as he fought to stand up, but was already failing. Losing his struggle even more, the giant insectoid collapsed all the way to the ground, chest pressed into the ground as he was squealing in utter fear and pain, as he could feel his insides smush against each other in a worse way than over eating, which in of itself was quite a feat.
"IT HUUUUUUUUUURTS!" Soma complained out loud, his entire body shaking and shivering as he tried to pull himself to his feet but to no avail. Tears streaming down his face as a rather feral screech escaped his lips, while Daria just shook her head in disapproval. She didn't expect this response at all, as she knew that Soma would at least put up some level of resistance or anguish, but not to the point where he was all the way on the ground. This was rather pitiful, and sad to watch to be quite honest.
Kicking her own big bug in the ribs, she just announced with her thick accent filling the air, "Get used to it Big Boy~. This is baby mode for a gravity chamber. It just takes time and acclimation after all."
Taking up her head to face Dantalion and the Supreme Commander as they talked about the 'companion' of Somatotrope. Tekuma was her name, and neither one of them still had a good read on her. Clearing her throat, Daria sought to clear the confusion concerning Tekuma's alliances as she announced, "I will be honest, I don't see her as an ally, and she's not even a part of my creation's squad. She just made the building for the new Soma Squad, and is now living their under pretenses of making nice with Somatotrope. And all she has done since then were pick fights and find ways to get into trouble. I would feel it be best to get rid of her, lest our pawn develop a brain and start fighting with the wrong people."
Meanwhile, Somatotrope leaned his head upward toward Voca as he asked, "Help... Meeeeee!"

((Sorry about the wait all. 12 hour shifts at work kind of stamp my availability.))
If Taiga had expected an easy go, he quickly corrected the thought. When Koldar initiates the simulated gravity, Taiga's arms threaten to tear off, his shoulders slumping forward, as the Arcosian soldier falls forward. He manages to catch himself on his left knee, slapping his hands against the floor, struggling to raise his head. Taiga grunts with his exertion as he tries to stand up, but the new weight keeps dragging him back down.
After several minutes, Taiga manages to force himself back onto his feet; though his body screams in protest. He had never trained in enhanced gravity before, but he could see why many warriors seemed to find it useful.
