?This is boring!? the long-haired wonder hissed at his father.
?Yeah, but no one?s head?s been shot off, eh?? Bardock replied with a smirk to his son.
With a muted grumbled, Rad glowered at a snake slithering across the ground. He had told his father of his previous experiences with decapitation, and it was still a bit of a sore spot with him. Unluckily for that little snake, Rad was sure a spot of random violence would help ease his grievances. A sickening crunch filled the dense foliage, causing both Bra and Bardock to snap their heads towards the bulky saiyan behind them. Rad simply grinned and shrugged while he wiped bits of snake brain off of his boot. His irritation at their slow progression had been lifted and he fell back into line behind Bardock and Bra.
Their movements had been decided by Bardock, as he proclaimed age had its privileges. Rad simply smirked, saying he wouldn?t be able to keep up with them otherwise, which prompted a quick smack upside Rad?s head. After consulting their maps for a few minutes, they had decided that moving west would be the best idea. Well? Bardock and Bra did, Rad was busy trying to sneak bread out of Bra?s supplies (unsuccessfully). If people wanted to act like they were in charge that was fine with Rad. He was here to have fun, and sitting hunched over a map was not his idea of a good time.
?Man, I sure miss that Grimshaw guy,? Rad said to Bra as they continued forward. ?I mean? he was kind old, but he sure knew how to keep things lively. You ever seen a toaster turn into a 20-foot tall squirrel before that??
?Well?? Bra considered this for a moment. ?No, actually.?
The Princess fell silent with only that said, causing Rad?s face to distort with disappointment. Even without the blatantly irritating announcement by Jak, it would have been obvious that time passing even faster than anyone could have anticipated. The early morning light struggled to break through the dense canopy above them as they continued their little trek forward, casting an eerie glow across the three warriors. It was, with great relief to Raditzu when they burst through the forest into a clearing. A small body of water stood before them, a welcome change from the repetitive forest. According to Bardock, who had scanned his map into his scouter, they had slightly overshot their destination, but that wouldn?t hurt anything.
?I guess we could start hea??
Bardock was interrupted as a body came tumbling out of the woods about 30 feet from where Bra, Bardock and Raditzu were standing. All three saiyans sunk into a fighting stance, waiting to see what, exactly would happen. Predictably, Raditzu was the first to make a move. He rush his target, his feet gliding across the grassy floor with a surprising amount of grace. Bra and Bardock watched, prepared to back up their long-haired companion, but his first strike assured them that would not be necessary. Throw his arms to his side, Rad reached his opponent in record time, and, before they had a chance to react, had thrown his arms forward, wrapping them in a giant hug.
?Hey, babe. I was wondering where you went.?
OOC: Got cut short. ='(
