"Namek? Isn't that the Dominion's capital?” Botany was confused about the readings this Ringo had gathered. Mazuko had plenty of crazy powerful members coming and going constantly. However this alien insisted that whatever was going on was big. Looking at the readings his eyes went wide upon reading the actual power level concentration. There was no way one member could be causing that disturbance. He looked back at the Ringo. The xeno was only a reconnaissance scout so he didn't question how he got the information. “How long ago did you get this information?” “Uh, not an hour ago. This is recent. You know what, this isn't that important…” The purple soldier reached out to shut off the computer. Botany was too quick and grabbed his hand. "The Hell it is. Step away from computer. I am taking this to a higher up.” He wrenched the scout’s hand away. He didn't budge much further. "You just want to take the credit! I found it!” He faced his body to the officer and his teeth bared to show his aggression. Botany matched him up. "I am a captain for a reason. Either stand down or I will liquify you.” He made his threat clear and concise. His hand tightened around his blaster after. He wasn't sure if the insubordinate would comply or not so he was prepared. For a brief second, the recon agent stood straight and didn't back off. Then he sneered and moved out of the way. "Watch your back, captain.” His tone was serious and infuriated. With a sigh the officer moved to put the information to his scouter. Botany wouldn't have thrown the first punch, but he was no pacifist. He would have fought him. After taking the information, he would have rushed out of the headquarters to get to the emperor with this information. He pieced together that maybe a battle was going on on Namek. While Botany was not in appraisal of the Dominion and would rather see them fall to take back what they had taken from them, he saw it necessary to use them while the Saiyans had access to insanely powerful leaders and the Dominion could match them. It would be in Koldar’s best interest to capitalize on the event however he would see fit. Of course he wasn't sure on it. The fluctuation of power didn't seem all of a sudden but rather jumpy, as if groupings of powerful people were coming in. However that didn't seem right to him. The Ringo had explained that a planet called Earth was used to that kind of traffic, not Namek. He was not an Intel gatherer like the Ringo but that didn't matter. The information was enough to pass on alone. He didn't need much to add to it. He approached the palace of the supreme commander. He had hoped to maybe catch the most important man in the federation to give him the information there. Botany didn't go to some higher commander like someone would, he wanted to bring it to the supreme commander as he viewed as important enough to break protocol. It would be weird for a guard captain to give information typically for recon agents, but he didn't trust the original finder of the information to be completely and totally truthful. At the gate he would enter and ready what he was going to say. It would be important for him to have a good delivery. He took a labored breath as he walked inside. Abzerute Koldar Frost

Power level- 178,424
The purple ringo that Botany was speaking to headed away from the others. The purple ringo bumping into Orenji, who wore a black robe and had his hands in his pocket. The purple ringo quickly realized it was another ringo and after seeing his powerlevel he grinned.
”A fellow ringo! I bet you can help me! Captain Botanty plans to take credit for what I found..Can you eliminate him for me? I got tons of money in return...”
Orenji entered his transformation as his power level sky rocketed straight to maximum. He looked at the Ringo as lighting came striking down from the sky and impacting the ringo’s entire body.
”Doing that would be treason.. unfortunately for you.. you will soon see it for yourself on what that means...”
The purple ringo dropped to the ground knocked out and Orenji placed the body over his shoulder and located Botany’s location by other soldiers telling him the location.Orenji had arrived right behind Botany, carrying the body and with two basic grunt ringos standing next to him.

Botany noticed a power level behind him register on his scouter. Spinning around to see what it was, he recognized the lead Ringo as Orenji. He was still farther out, so he shrugged and kept walking. He didn't see much importance of it. He assumed the Ringo had gotten into a squabble with him and was bringing him in. Botany was more concerned about his own mission.
Watching as the door slid open, he continued inside. He adjusted his blaster for more comfort before letting his arm drop. He hadn't been in the palace before, but he was sure he could navigate it. It wouldn't be long before he ran into someone important.

PL: 153,754 Form: Suppressed Heavy Weights: ON Weighted PL: 38,438.5 ~ 38,439 PL
"Care to explain what is going on here?" the bronze Arcosian as he looked at the human looking alien and the group of Ringoids behind them, one of whom had decided it would be a good idea to increase their power level near the palace and launch a ki attack of some description.
He folded his arms across his chest, his weighted armour resting across his body which caused his own power to be reduced for the time being. It seemed that his body had stopped granting him an increased level of power increase some time ago, and now he was forced to rely purely on the weighted armour to force his body to grow stronger outside of combat and gravity training.
"I'll give you all this single warning, I don't have much patience for fools or idiots." Abzerute declared, stepping towards the humanoid at the front of the group. "So, start explaining, and power down." he ordered them all, in particular the Ringoid holding the unconscious one.

Orenji had stepped forward and while doing so his transformation and his power level dropped to his original form. Orenji placing the knocked out ringo on the floor in front of him.
”This ringo here wanted to get rid of Captain Botany and wanted to pay me for what Botany was going to take credit for. I decided to knock him out and have him arrested...”
Just then, the purple ringo awakened in a daze. He was quickly placed in handcuffs by two of the ringos that stood next to Orenji. Orenji continued to look at the bronze arcosian.
”I apologize for not reducing my powerlevel.. I didn’t know The power level of this individual ringo.. and since I have been appointed the leader of the ringonites by Koldar, I have begun to teach all of them who are within the empire. However, this one I don’t particularly recognize since he is in Captain Botany’s group...”

The captain was unsure what rank the Acrosian had. Most Acrosians weren't high ranking. Nobles were of status within the Federation but they didn't typically stick around the high palace. Regardless, he was going to identify himself. Snapping his has to his side, his feet together, and his head up high, he gave the report.
I have important information to bring to the supreme commander. Nothing is of issue."
Once he was done he snapped out of attention. He watched the bronze lizard approach the Ringo group. He still tried to figure out who the Humanoid was. He hadn't seen him before and he had not been notified by any higher ranking officials coming in. No Acrosians had come through the landing ports that matched his description. In fact, only one Acrosian had arrived recently via a ship. She was white and blue however, not the gold this one was colored.

Abzerute scowled at the Ringo as they tried to explain their actions. "That's what that device on your head is for soldier. I'd suggest using it next time. No sense in wasting energy and stamina on a dramatic attack when a simple punch to the face, or kick to the groin would achieve the same result." he explained before looking at this Captain Botany. "So, you're this Captain Botany that Koldar spoke to me about." the bronze Arcosian mused as he eyed the soldier, making his way to stand in front of him. His tail tapped the ground behind him in apparent thought before he simply sighed.
"This is what I've got to try and mould hmm?" the former Emperor asked, more of himself than anyone in the room in particular, his eyes shifting between the Beri and the Ringos before settling back on the Beri. He held out his hand. "Let's see this oh so important information then that warranted all of these dramatics. Koldar's running on pure caffeine right now, so probably best to not disturb him with anything that seems important but is probably something trivial." the bronze Arcosian ordered and explained to the soldier.
"And if you're concerned about my being the wrong person to give this to, don't be. Assuming that little rat Retsu didn't try to do something stupid like delete me from the records, your Scouters should identify me as your former Emperor, Abzerute." he pointed out to them, deciding that since Koldar had said for him to try and get in touch with any contacts on Arcose and Yardrat he may still have, that the time for him hiding in the shadows since his resurrection had passed.

Botany took out the device that would display the information. Activating it, he would hand it to the Acrosian. He then began to explain it. The readings were for the power concentration on Namek within the past week.
"Massive power fluctuations have been detected on Namek. Not only are they staggered and static, but they are very very big compared to the days prior. The split and change in power is too infrequent to be some sparring between Lord Xylo and someone else, these are multiple people coming in and powering up. And as you see right there in the most recent spike, there is a slight drop off before a massive climb. There is a battle going on on Namek which I theorize may contain all of the Dominion's and Saiyan's most powerful. If that is the case, then we have been blessed with an opportunity to sneak in and destroy Vegeta while it's guard are gone. This will temporarily secure Acrose from an attack and cripple the SSE in every aspect and expose them. That is what is important. We can finally get revenge for what those monkeys have done."
He then listened to Abzerute explain that he was, in fact, the dead emperor revived. He took a step back from the revelation.
"Wh-what?! You're supposed to be dead! It was confirmed!
While he had heard that Koldar had talked about him, this completely overshadowed his reaction to that knowledge. Abzerute was one of the most powerful Acrosians. If he was back, then Botany was at a loss at who else Koldar could be hiding. His face clearly shown his shock and awe.

"Even in this day in age.. the dead doesn't even stay dead.. We should be glad that our forces have those who come back from it.. though the same could be said to the saiyans.. an endless war.."
Orenji folding his arms across his chest and looking at Botany.
"An interesting theory Botany.. however... always expect the unexpected... the Dominion is fairly new... our organization have been here for years.. who knows if we can truly trust them... after all, if the Mazoku are within their ranks, we should tread carefully.. I'm all for being allied with the dominion, but at the same time.. we have to use our brain and make sure our people are safe."
Orenji tapping his forehead while saying the last sentence. Now walking beside Botany with his arms to his back, he eyed him face to face.
"If you do want to assault the SSE, I shall join you in arms... getting rid of those saiyans... hehe..."
Orenji looking at him with a sadistic facial expression while licking his lips.

The bronze Arcosian looked over the data before shrugging his shoulders. "We've already been made aware that Namek's come under attack from the Solar Saiyan Empire." he informed them as he handed back the datascreen. "They attacked several days ago and it's been decided that we're going to focus our efforts on consolidating and rebuilding our forces whilst the Dominion keeps the Saiyans occupied on Namek." the former Emperor explained to them all.
"Consider for a moment that we did strike at any world that the SSE currently holds. I would not believe Habana to be so naive as to commit all of her forces to the Namek invasion." said Abzerute, his tail swaying from side to side. "No, she was the Commander of the Solar Saiyan Empire's military for quite some time after all. She would have left some sort of contingency rapid deployment force behind in case someone were to take try and advantage of the situation." he explained to them.
Abzerute rolled his eyes a little though at Botany's reaction to the revelation of his identity. "Reports of my demise were not exaggerated. But I'm back, and Koldar has seen fit to make myself and Wyntre, along with himself, part of the triumvirate of rulers of this world, in line with his new policy for the new Arcosian Federation." the bronze Arcosian exposited for the group. He wondered how this little motley crew of alien soldiers were going to take that particular tidbit of information.

"B-but sir! If there is any rapid response force, it wouldn't be enough for you it Koldar. Even if the ex empress herself were in the invasion we would just walk over anything they had. All it would be is a quick battle. We won't get another shot at Vegeta like this one. We must do something!" It was made very clear how desperate he was to get a counter going. He needed to get back at the SSE. They were responsible for the fall and destruction of Acrose. This was what he saw as his one chance at retaliation.
"Habana, from everything I have read, points to her being as lustful for victory and conquest as she is for pride. Anything she would leave would just be the leftover soldiers and auxillary forces just to sway pirates and other sorts away. At least scout out the planet!" His expression went from awe to determined and hard set. He was no brilliant tactician nor was he the most knowledgeable on the empire, but he had tidbits of information that was enough for his officer training to kick in.
"And what if they defeat the Dominion? They will then come for us, and we won't be able to withstand a full strength Habana and her command and protect Acrose. We must do something while they are occupied to slow them down. This is not an opportunity to just ignore debate politics. We've been humiliated and are the laughing stock of the galaxy. We must show that we are still very much a threat!"
He couldn't simply let go of the fact that the finest Saiyans of their enemies were currently locked in battle with a perfect opportunity to strike. He was hardset on screwing up the SSE and with Habana being gone, it was the most damage he could see being possible. Habana was the biggest threat and with her out of the way, it was a golden opportunity.

The bronze Arcosian closed his eyes and tilted his head forward, seemingly in thought and contemplation at Botany's words. "Tail or mind?" he asked softly before opening his eyes and looking at Botany. His tail suddenly snapped out and sought to wrap itself around the Captains throat, the spines along its length threatening to dig into his flesh. Not enough to pierce it and kill him, no no no~ But just enough to apply pressure and threaten that possibility if things go any more sour than they already had. "Allow me to explain this in a way that you can comprehend Captain." said the former Emperor, his eyes glaring unblinking into Botany's own. "And you can stay put and listen as well." he declared, stretching out one of his hands and utilising his telekinetic abilities in order to try and restrain Orenji from leaving. "You suggested that Koldar, Wyntre and myself leave Arcose and strike at Vegeta whilst the SSE are busy on Namek. Correct?" he rhetorically asked. "And whilst the three of us are there, who remains to defend Arcose? All it would take would be a single Super Saiyan, and you and all of your garrison as it stands right now, would be wiped out." Abzerute stated, his eyes not once leaving Botany's own, not once blinking. "A single Super Saiyan. Doesn't even have to be one of Habana's best. It could just be even one of those left behind from the Namek assault, never mind the possibility of one of Habana's Namek based soldiers getting word about Vegeta's assault and deciding to return the favour." he pointed out as he began to walk in a circle, his eyes not once leaving Botany. "And never mind the SSE. Those two who had returned from Hell for example, the ones who had erected those obscene statues of themselves outside this very palace..." the bronze Arcosian reminded the Beri Captain. "They could wipe the floor with you, and reduce you to a corpse before you could even blink." Abzerute pointed out. He let out a sigh of air before releasing his grip on the Captain if he'd been able to grab hold of him in the first place. "Passion is all well and good Captain, but it must be tempered." the former Emperor explained. "My... successor, Retsu had passion. He also desired to inflict retribution against the Solar Saiyan Empire as soon as possible. He also desired to cause as much damage to them as vengeance for what we had suffered." he said, pointing out history for Botany to compare himself from. "He even had me killed in order to achieve this desire, since I was moving too slow for his liking. His passion, his drive, his desire for swift retribution and revenge..." said Abzerute, his voice growing darker with and every passing syllable. "It is why we are allied with the Dominion as we are. It is why we are in this war right now. It is why we have lost worlds to the Solar Saiyan Empire. It is why we have lost soldiers, resources, people that we cannot afford to lose!" he roared, the weighted armour starting to crack as his anger started to cause his power to try and rise up. "His unfettered and untempered desire for a swift victory and revenge is why we are in the mess we are in right now!" the bronze Arcosian bellowed, his tail slamming into the palace tiles, crushing them into a multitude of pieces beneath his strike. Throughout this entire tirade, his eyes did not leave Botany for a moment, not once did he even blink. Abzerute stood there in silence before he finally closed his eyes and let out a slow breath. "Passion is all well and good to have Captain... but timing is also crucial." he said calmly. "Right now, we do not have the resources to strike at our enemies and defend ourselves from anyone wishing to take advantage of such a strike." the bronze Arcosian explained. "Passion is a good thing to have Captain, but you must temper it. Do not let it rule you as Retsu allowed his to rule him." he said, trying to rest a hand on the man's shoulder. "Striking whilst the iron is hot from the forge may seem like a good idea, but the metal will simply bend from its intended destination and leave you exposed." he said, before smirking. "But cold steel, one that has been tempered and sharpened to a keen edge, that is what will deal the killing blow to our enemies. That is what Koldar believes you can become Captain. Cold steel, ready to strike when the time is right." said Abzerute. He would remove his hand from Botany's shoulder if he'd been able to get it on there in the first place, and start to walk past him. "The choice is yours of course Captain. Koldar should be in his office up ahead if you still think you should have a conversation with him. Same goes for you Ringo."

Botany was taken back a second at the response the ex-emperor seemed to give. The question, while spoken underneath the Acrosian's breath, was audible and understandable to him. He drew his eyebrows together in confusion as he tried to sort out the meaning of the question. It wasn't what he expected to come out of his mouth.
"Tail or- Gurk!" He was immediately cut off at the sudden and rapid motion of Abzerute's tail wrapping around his neck. His hands shot up to the flesh around his head out of reflex. He could feel the spines of the tail press into his neck, threatening to penetrate. The officer tilted his head back slightly and pressed his teeth together. His eyes narrowed as he stared at the alien who had grappled him. He didn't speak as to worsen the situation, as it would have been no doubt an objection.
He listened to the entire rant, digesting all of it. He picked up that Abzerute let it be known that Wyntre was also on the planet. He hadn't known that either. When he was finally let go he took a deep breath and grabbed his throat, massaging it. He then snapped his full attention to the noble after he went into his spurt of rage. He backed up a step at the cracking of his armor and flinched at the smack of his tail on the ground. While he wasn't one to openly show his fear of death, he also wasn't a fan of dying in such a manner of intentional friendly fire.
He jerked a little bit as the Acrosian putting his hand on his shoulder but calmed down as he realized it wasn't a threatening gesture. He shook his head as the ex-emperor finished his lesson on when to strike.
"Yes sir." He watched the golden cold blood as he walked passed. He looked back down the way Abzerute came from, towards Koldar, and pondered whether or not to continue his plan. He took one last look at the data and decided something was still worth reporting, even if it wasn't a potential attack on Vegeta. It was still an irregular build-up of power. He continued on further into the complex hallways of the palace.

Post by Koldar Frost on Nov 6, 2017 21:28:03 GMT
(Thread PL: 131,491) (Current Form: Suppressed) Due to the Supreme Commander's caffeinated kick that kept him up for a few days, he'd been bedridden by his ship doctor turned Royal Doctor, Wavr, and was given some pills to eat away the excess caffeine and slow his heart down, so he could get an time to sleeping. And so he slept. For days, in fact, with food being brought to him and a report of what was going on thus far! This was his final day of rest when the sudden surges of power, in the Palace, shot him awake. One of them had been Abzerute's, while the other had been Orenji. "Are you kidding me," Koldar thought aloud, not moving so much as an inch from his bed, "That better be getting resolved quick..."There was a third presence much smaller than Abzerute's and Orenji's. He had some familiarity with it, but the name and face was something he couldn't put the image to! It was bore the energy from Abzerute, before it was released and the energy approached Koldar through the vast halls of the complex palace! Orenji and Abzerute, meanwhile, seemed to have still been in the same area. He'd let the younger Arcosian handle Orenji. A knock at the door called the Supreme Commander's door, with that small energy on the other side, attracted Koldar's attention! "Come in," Koldar called out, grunting as he sat up in the bed. He had no shirt on, revealing a scar over his right dimple that looked like a very nasty blast hit it and altered the white carapace to a smoldered grey ages ago. ( Orenji you're up! I was requested to appear here.)
