Goku blinked as he watched Vegeta crash into the ground below, he scratched his cheek and moved a few feet away from Kinoko at that.
"I think you made him mad," Goku said. "I'm just going to move over here for a second."
The sky started to turn dark as lightning crashed around them, a burst of power exploding from the hole where Vegeta landed, it seemed his power vanished for a moment before a hand gripped Kinoko's shoulder with immense force, Vegeta hovering directly behind Kinoko his power coming out in waves as he glared at his sister.
"Grit your teeth."
That was the only warning he gave before his fist slammed into Kinoko's cheek sending her flying towards one of the cliffs, Goku brought a hand to his face as Vegeta built energy into his hands and started firing continuous blasts towards Kinoko only stopping when the cliffs themselves were basically ash.
"Vegeta that was a bit much," Goku said.
"I don't see any point in holding back if she wants to hang out with you that badly," Vegeta responded.
"Bulma's not going to be happy if she comes back all bruised."
"Neither is your woman."
The two Saiyan's looked at each other before realizing the mess they had got themselves into too, still they turned towards Kinoko knowing she wasn't going to go down from one punch and got back into stance, whatever would come, they'd deal with it later.
Ryo let out a small sigh and as he went to get more water, he looked over at Soru who was chatting with a few female executives nearby. A few looking particularly lovestruck, except Miss Haruna but she was always like that. Soru believed she was married so he didn't flirt with her, though it didn't make the scene any less painful, those woman didn't even look in his direction after all because he was a lowly janitor. Soru was in the same job and just watching how invested they were in the conversation was a little depressing. Ryo sighed a little and started filling his bucket. Hearing footsteps he noticed three young men approach, two of them in black suits, one a bit plump with a shaved head, and the other skinny with bob cut hair. The last one was in a white suit wearing pretty gaudy jewelry with slicked back black hair.
"Well hey there," the white dressed man said.
"...Hey Tasu," Ryo said removing the bottom of one of his mops.
The man next to him was named Tasu and he was the son of one of the executives here, the executive was apparently pretty high up meaning Tasu was rich, and the two next to him was his underlings, he didn't know their names so he just called the fat one Hench 1 and the skinny one Hench 2, the suits they had on were given to them by Tasu but they had family in the building too.
Tasu walked over and kicked over Ryo's bucket of water.
"Whoops...my bad," Tasu said.
"Ah it's no problem," Ryo said grabbing the bucket. "Happens to best of us."
Soru filled the bucket up once again only for it to be kicked over again, he mentally sighed as this happened on occasion, part of being on the lowest rungs of society. He filled the bucket again and held it this time since he was heading back, but Hench 1 tripped him causing him to fall and drop the bucket and mop.
"Yep...one of those days huh..." Ryo thought.
Tasu stared down at Ryo his eyes narrowing before he raised his black dress shoes and slammed them on Ryo's back.
"Oi...you got dirty mop water on my shoes. Clean it off...that's your job right!"
He repeatedly stepped on Ryo before motioning to his henchman who nodded and stepped on Ryo as well with the same excuse, after a few minutes of this the young men walked away laughing to themselves, leaving Ryo on the ground covered in dirt and bruises. With a small sigh Ryo climbed to his feet and brushed the dirt off his uniform.
"Ryo!"
Ryo turned seeing Soru run up to him, he helped him brush off the dirt narrowing his eyes at the figures in the distance.
"Damn it did those bastards do this...I'm sorry man, you should have told me you were going to refill. You know they attack you if you go alone," Soru said.
"Ah you seemed busy and I figured I'd try," Ryo said.
"Dude you always come first...unless she's really cute. In this instance though you can just have me come with you...or at least stand up for yourself. Hell I'll get fired with you."
"Nah I like the pay at this job," Ryo said grinning at him. "I can deal with this anyway."
"You should get some Martial Arts Training or something man, there's plenty of places around here like Mr. Satan's place or something. Anything so you don't have to put up with this...I can cover for you if it hurts.
"Nah I'm fine," Ryo said picking up his bucket. "Let's just get back to work. The sun's setting."
"Damn it...it's hard to be mad at you when you're such a good friend."
"Thanks Soru I-"
Ryo started to talk but stopped seeing Soru talking to a nearby woman, he brought a hand to his face and trembled slightly. He did say he was fine so he couldn't blame him but he could doubt him just a little more.
"I think you made him mad," Goku said. "I'm just going to move over here for a second."
