"You're calling my speech cheesy, then you want to call the ship Star Miracle? A tad hypocritical, don't you think? That said, the right thought's there, a miracle to all we come across. Let's talk later, I'm sure we can come up with something great! As for being the leader, are you sure you'd make the right guy to lead? After all, who better than to begin our heroes on the path to peace and justice than the warrior of peace and justice himself, Accelerando? If you want to run the ship, sure, but I feel that I would serve best in terms of tactics, politics, and any other issues we may come across. I may not look it, but I'm rather bright in that regard.
I'm not sure flying's going to be quite that easy, but I'll give it a shot. As for Sasha learning it, I have a feeling that may end poorly. Just trust me here, I'll work with her to try to find a way around it, but I don't think you're going to have much success in that regard. Not for lack of skill, the fact that she made it here and found me at all shows she has talent. Trust me, don't make her fly, she can find a way around it, I'm certain of it."
"18...has it really been that long since I left? Look Sasha, you know as well as I do that regardless of who can order who, you're not leaving the planet without notifying the family. If there was a way around it, trust me, I'd find it, but we have to contact them before anything can be set in stone. You have that overwhelmed look you used to have whenever the other kids went off to play without you, don't worry about it. Whatever happens, we'll get through it. However, you will need to take some responsibility for your actions. Imagine little Cassie, she'd be worried sick if you just up and disappeared and never came back. As I said, we'll talk. That doesn't mean a no, but the first thing that needs to happen is to sort this whole mess out." |

"Hey, I never said my idea wasnt cheesy! And i havent heard any suggestions from you guys!" He looked at all of them with a huge grin on his face hoping they didnt have any ideas. "If you guys dislike it so much what about "Stardust Saviour" just as cheesy, but more badass."He was sure this one would be better liked than the other one.
"And of course Im gonna be the leader. You might have experience with fighting criminals, but those only where petty thieves. Further more, you arent the only one, back in Namek I did a few oddjobs, including security. And dont even bring up space travel, since Im the only one here with experience on that." He smirked and continued. "But if you want... you can be the second in comand, though... Arti might dissagree with you on that one."
After listening to Benetto his expresion got a lot more serious as he turned towards Sasha. "Oh, Sasha, your brother is right, you should talk to your family before going. I left my own home without saying a thing a long time ago... I dont regret it, mostly because I didnt plan on returning and didnt want to be found, but your situation is much diferent. Im not telling you what to do, its simply a suggestion, you can take it or leave it..."

Articho glanced back and forth between the two siblings. This was clearly a sore spot for them, but he had to side with Sasha. She was an adult at this point, older than himself. "I don't think Sasha should have to go talk to your and her's parents. And given that you were apparently gone for so long, you can't really claim responsibility for her. Let her do what she wants." Articho tried to recreate his mother's "This conversation is over and I'm right" look.
The hybrid rolled his eyes. The cheesiness was too much. "I'll leave that to you guys," he said with a laugh and shake of his head. "I don't want any part in captaining or second in commanding us. That's a job for someone else." Articho let Gleciar and Bennetto work out who would run their crew and returned his attention to Sasha. At the mention of flight, he noticed her flinching. His smile fell as he studied her for a moment. "Scared of heights, huh?" he asked the girl. "I can get to past that. What's say dinner on the highest point I can find around eight?" He grinned at Sasha.

Sasha gave her brother a grateful look when he explained about flying, then chuckled a little when he mentioned "little Cassie". "She's not so little anymore, big brother. She's a firey young woman who knows exactly what she wants in life. But you do have a point." she said, considering. "Little Gaston would miss me." she smiled. "And yes, it has been that long." she stuck her tongue out at him. "Seven years, big brother, and no word from you. It's not just me they're worried about, you know, whatever you might believe."
She was glad that Articho had taken her side, but she gently said, "No, big brother's right, I probably should let them know that I'm safe at least. They deserve to know that much." She did nod when he mentioned fear of heights, then was slightly surprised when he offered to help her with it- and to take her to dinner. She'd never been asked to dinner by anyone, let alone a guy, because she was always buried in her books. "Uhmm... that sounds nice, but can it wait until tomorrow or the next day? I'm a little tired..." she trailed off, not sure of how to finish the lie. She wasn't that tired, but she was overwhelmed and wanted to leave. She thought at Benetto as hard as she could (I want to leave... I want to leave...)

"A brainstorming session for the name of our ship, huh? Sounds like a plan! I still don't know about the leader, though. Running the ship's one thing, but running the team's a completely different bag. In regards to criminals, there's a major difference between fighting them and dealing with them. Raw force helps to stop crime now, but stopping crime later, that's the hard part."
Benetto leapt up from his impromptu training routine, and looked at Sasha, then Gleciar. "As second place in the tournament, I probably wound up getting quite the sum, didn't I? If you could, I'd appreciate it if you could hand out what we won now, and I'll see what I can put towards the ship with it later, after getting some essentials. Seems to me like me and Articho don't have much of a reason to be here much longer, so I believe now's the time to return home. C'mon, Sasha, I'll see what accommodations I can find in my little apartment. Here, you have a touch of the money too, you'll need a little pocket change. Right, well, we'll be seeing each other again shortly, I hope?"

Gleciar was a little distracted when Benetto asked for the money, but he grabbed it anyway. He had left the money in 3 bags under the table, he threw Benetto's at him then grabbed Articho's and threw it at him. Then grabbed his own. He was surpriced he actually made anything from the tournament, but it was still a much smaller fraction of what the other two had made.
He stretched and got ready to head out back to Mt Paozu, these last few days he had varely trained other than fighting Bing and practicing on the rooftop of the hospital, which isnt a suitable place for training, he was eager to go to back home and get started with training a full on for the tournament where he might be able to get that ship and Gravity Chamber! Not only that, but starting his training with Ninjin would help a lot! He was really exited!
"Yeah, we'll meet again soon enough... You guys should go to the tournament to cheer for me as i win us a spaceship~!" He said with a grin on his face and stood near the doorframe expecting any other comment by the other two. If they didnt he would walk out and get started with his training.

Articho nodded with a smile at Sasha. Maybe his asking her out was in bad taste when she seemed so uncomfortable. Her half-yes did look a little forced. "Take however long you need," he told her. "I don't want to make you more uncomfortable than I already have. And I hope it goes well for you back home. I'm sure your family will understand." He smiled again, then nodded in respect towards Benetto. He found it odd that Sasha's older brother hadn't said a thing about the young hybrid's flirting with Sasha. He'll take what he can get, at least.
"That was a good fight and I look forward to working with you both," Articho said. He caught his share of the funds and inspected the bag before throwing it back to Gleciar. "Hold this for me. COSMOS has more use for it than me." The hybrid turned back to retrieve his exercise clothes and studied them for a minute. They were torn to shit and he would need to replace them. Might as well get something more official looking, he thought as he bundled them up in his arm. He looked back at the other three as they began to leave when he had a thought.
"Hey, maybe you could all come to my house and have lunch with me and my mother," Articho suggested. "She rarely gets guests and loves to entertain. We could all use a good meal and I want to introduce you all to my mom. She might be more lenient with me going to space if she knows who's going to be with me. What do you say? If you guys need a ride, Gleciar and I could fly you over, too." The hybrid pointed at Benetto and Sasha. He would wait for their reply before leaving the hospital with all three of his new comrades.

Sasha smiled at her brother gratefully and accepted the money he offered, knowing that he most likely wouldn't let her refuse it. She nodded a little perfunctorily to Gleciar, too relieved that they were finally leaving to think about saying anything. She did, however, smile at Articho. "Thank you for understanding... and they might be upset, but even my father must acknowledge that I'm old enough to make my own decisions." she paused as Articho asked them to his house for lunch. After looking at her brother for confirmation, she commented "That sounds lovely... I'd rather not fly... but that's probably the best way to get there, so I suppose we'll have to accept that to, if it doesn't inconvenience you two." Sasha smiled one last time and followed her brother from the hospital.
