?About time one of you freaks said something intelligent,? Blue said without turning to face his companions. ?Matter of fact, that was exactly what I said earlier today. Way to rehash an idea and make it your own.? Obviously, he wasn?t in any better of a mood than earlier. The blue-eyed man was still sore about the incident with Koola last night, even more so that he was caught in the first place. ?You?re getting slack, Roy. Too much time around weaklings will do that to you.?
Behind him, Bujin was spouting off some half-baked righteous speech that Blue was doing his best to ignore. The other two seemed to be holding their tongues, for now at least. In his opinion, these people should have their voice boxes removed. Taking a deep breath, Conroy walked over to Bujin casually, cutting off the little alien?s tirade. ?If it?ll shut up you, I?ll play nice with you and your friends. Hell, I?ll even listen to whatcha?ll have to say, if it isn?t retarded. All I ask is that I receive the same in turn. If I can get that, then I?ll cut the insults down to special occasions.?
Suddenly, Blue realized what had happened. Somehow, Bujin had assumed the mantle of leadership for the group, as evidenced by his human companion making bargains with him.. How the little man had done it was beyond Roy?s grasp, and it rubbed him wrong inside.
Shrugging slightly, Bujin replied, ?Sounds fair.? Two simple words, yet something snapped inside Blue when he heard them. They marked the end of his coup to take control of this group. Raising his face to the hot, afternoon sky, the red-haired fighter let loose a howl of rage, and then stormed away from the very perplexed group. The tall changeling cast a look of askance to his friends, wondering if their human member had become insane.
