"Yes, this planet is full of disappointment. What I don't get brother is why we're hunting down a beast instead of robbing a bank or any other countless ways to earn Earthling Money. Still, you trusted me to train under Master Babidi so I'll trust you on this mission."

Trust was the ultimate compliment in their culture. Being a member of one's family wasn't enough to trust Frost. Not having a bond was considered one of the ultimate sacrifices, even worse to trust someone. Still, the brothers persevered through the negative outlook of Changeling society. Even now they found ways to grow stronger together, that's what would help them conquer the entire PTO. Everyone else had the disadvantage of working alone all the time, but two powerful beings were better than one. Especially when they could play off the lack of trust for others no matter what planet they encountered. Once they mastered the technique from Master Babidi, Ryme could start enacting the second phase of their universal domination.

Ryme would hear the sound of their monster nearby, the growls and loud steps. He'd look over to his brother and motion in that direction while creeping slowly towards it. As they inched closer he could hear the sound of the beast loudly chewing on some old prey. The size was about what Ryme expected from the average earthling's exaggeration.

His brother would explain his interest in helping the Earthling people, and the logic was sound. Ryme knew that it would be a better reason than just wanting to do good. Everything they did was rooted in the idea of becoming successors of the PTO legacy. Even this, though if Ryme had known this before they left he would have brought a recorder. Instead, they would have to rely on word of mouth. Thinking about it, that might be better for their situation earthlings lied about the size of the beast they'd probably exaggerate how it was destroyed as well.

"Yes, we'll probably be able to take it down with a barrage with how weak the average earthling is."


Ryme was a master of Ki blasts relative to his brother, but with their might combined, he imagined the average beast wouldn't stand a chance. As Ryme entered his typical stance, he'd start rotating his head and parts of his torso in a clockwise direction while he leaned backward. There was always something comforting about his unique fighting style, it relied on deception. Most likely the beast wouldn't even understand, but that mattered little to Ryme.

As the beast emerged from the treeline both he and his brother's ki blasts didn't seem to have a major effect. This was probably due to the natural armor that the beast seemed to have. Leave it to earthlings to exaggerate size, but leave out the most important detail. It mattered little to Ryme, he had dealt with his race and their armor for years now. His brain had already calculated a plan, taking advantage of his brother's close-range combat. Before he could even communicate Zero would move straight towards the beast. That was the bond of brotherhood, the implicit trust that made them the dynamic duo.

Ryme would take to the air flying up until he had a good downward angle on the beast. He would charge up his signature move waiting for the right moment. It would swipe at his brother with its razor-sharp claws. His brother had a successful counterpunch that accomplished what Ryme was waiting for. As it opened its mouth to breathe and take a step back he'd throw his ball straight into its gullet. There's no armor on the inside of these beasts. He'd fire Ki blasts as well, to better hide the intended blast.

At first, Ryme was worried his blast didn't do enough damage, but as the beast went to swipe its tail at his brother. It would freeze, then collapse on the ground. Ryme smiled as he floated down to the ground seeing the damage that the beast had caused to the forests from the fall.

"Well, that was easier than I imagined. Let's go get this reward, I think we'll have to move pretty slow in the car to tow this back to town. Maybe we can make something out of its hide if my ball didn't ruin it too much. Couldn't think of a better way to take it down so sorry if I damaged it too much."


Ryme would get their vehicle and tie it to the large beast, he'd then let Zero start driving. The trip back was slower than he wanted, but the chance of making some new item out of the beast did excite him. He already had a couple of ideas of which shopkeeper to bring it to.
