Day Two: Afternoon

[Android-18]

OOC: I redid my RP, the last one was a little too much.

They moved onward through the island. The destination was unknown, but it hardly mattered. The android stayed behind the group. No one noticed, and likely no cared. She had slept alone last night, and returned, but Raditzu seemed oblivious. She shook her head and let her eyes gaze toward the ground. Dry grass and twigs crunched underfoot. Hardly a whisper was heard, but she was sure there was some talk amongst the group. She yawned and hefted her rifle onto her back, her pack was moved aside slightly, but this was more comfortable.

She looked upward and let her eyes settle on the back of the Saiya-Jin?s head. Despite the mental and physical distance, were they still close? Sometimes she wondered. What had happened, or was it purely in her head? Maybe it was her fault. Sweat slid down the side of her face and she snatched her water canteen from her pack. She had attached it to the side of her bag for easy access. Her parched lips became moist with water as she drank deeply. Sure it was somewhat stale, and warm, but it was good enough. They would need new water soon, she was almost out. She had been careful this far, but not careful enough.

Their travel was halted as a few words were exchanged. Eighteen?s mind wandered as the cyan hared woman came toward her. The words barely made it through, but by the time the android received them the girl was gone. She furrowed her brow, but let it go. Once more her gaze followed their leader. What made him leader anyway? She could lead too, couldn?t she? She sighed lightly; she did wonder why he hardly spoke to her. What was with him? Maybe he was tired of making the first step. Perhaps it was just that he really was that stupid.

The troupe had begun moving again, this time it was in a southward direction. Eighteen did see the strange occurrence between the other female and the Saiya-Jin. She frowned slightly as Raditzu continued onward and the could-be Princess stumbled forward. She did stop to lend her hand. ?Don?t bother with him, sometimes it just isn?t worth the hassle.? She commented. The girl seemed taken aback, but did take the androids hand. As Bra wiped herself off the blond was already walking ahead. She didn?t want to talk, not yet.

She sped up slightly until she caught up with the supposed leader. He seemed different, and she wondered why. She had not really talked with him since the night before, and was still hurt over being completely ignored. Yeah, he had fallen asleep, but still. She supposed she expected too much of him. It was something she would have to accept. Then?she wondered, maybe this was all how it was once you gave a man what he wanted. He had gotten into her pants, what more would he want? She was no more a mystery to him, maybe he was bored?

Her hand shot out as she came close to him. She always had the upper hand, considering her lack of ki signature. Her digits tightened into a fist as it neared his arm and she put much force into the blow. Her knuckles hit his arm and even he was caught off guard. Whatever he had been chanting to himself was cut off by a loud ?ow?. The android jumped back from retaliation. ?Tag, you?re it,? she prompted. Hopefully he would take the bait, it was the only thing she could think of.
