After Tiger Lily made a glass handmade present with Cayle, her parents requested that she return home to stay at least a night, it had been months since she left home and had been doing well to text or call but it was not enough. While her father was calm the last few times she visited, she was feeling rather nervous about Cayle meeting him again, since their first meeting almost resulted in a fight because of the torment under the tuffle science executive. The teenage girl promised she would help in the effort of freeing saiyans from being cryogenically frozen which she recently succeeded in with the help of her friends. The news would be good for her father to hear, she was thinking about convincing them to visit Ensalada Island, where all the saiyan refugees were being designated to live in peace while others relocated on their own working for Taco King around the world.
Ensalada Island needed work, everyone who was going to help build houses, and structures for the refugees were to meet at the Pilaf Land Carnival Pier, it was all the fun of the theme park condensed by the sea, and open to the public rather than requiring an exclusive park ticket. Tiger Lily remembered to bring her souvenir cup and refilled it with lemonade while she sat at the edge of the pier waiting for the others to regroup so they could travel together to the southern islands. The red head had her hair up in a loose pontytail tucked into a pale blue hoodie sweater, a grey layered vest over a white dress shirt with a white oxford collar, a navy blue pleated skirt, and she was wearing black stockings and black high top sneakers with black laces. After aging up a year, she stopped wearing tomboyish clothes, and switched to contact lenses since she kept breaking her glasses. As much as she did not want to change too much, she was naturally shifting towards appearing more feminine, and it was mostly because she was in love; which she needed to reflect on with more clarity.

When Jack arrived in Pilaf Land, he could sense Cayle's Ki, but he couldn't spot him in the crowd every time he thought he had tracked down his brother down. He had only just arrived on a Taco King ship, and he was already getting hungry from searching with his Saiyan sidekick Choi. It was then that his instincts had driven him to silently remove the Brave Sword and Carbine from his shoulders and shoved them both into Choi's arms along with his flip flops before he started to sprint across the dock like an athlete. Jack finished off his mad sprint towards the ocean with a good leap into a deep dive into the depths in search of a giant fish. It was a good thing that he was only wearing his swim trunks and Combat Armor when he went fishing this time around to avoid injury in one way or another, and he was especially quick on his reflexes to stun a Goliath Catfish with a punch to the torso before it had a chance to grab his leg. The hybrid then connected with a kick that launched the giant fish out of the water and into the air, which would probably catch the attention of Tiger Lily.
Jack Pota then used his own Ki to fly out of the water just in-time to spike the Goliath Catfish onto the pier, right next to Tiger Lily while it flopped and wriggled to get back into the water; but those hopes were dashed away when Jack fell on the giant fish with a body slam before he wrapped his arms and legs around the gill area of the fish and squeezed tightly with a primal growl as his muscles in his upper and lower body flexed tightly to the point that veins pulsated on his arms, neck, forehead, and what was still exposed of his chest as the Battle Armor stretched to adjust to the tense flexing he was doing. The fish still struggled under Jack's grip for a few minutes before it went limp, and he relaxed his body before standing up slowly with a quietly heaving chest. It was a very good catch, if he did say so himself, and he smirked at a drooling Choi that was still standing on the pier with his things in his arms. Jack placed his fists on his sides triumphantly before turning to Tiger Lily, who he had to admit was a cute girl upon first glance. "Hey, you okay?" Jack asked her as he puffed out his chest a bit unintentionally with a smile.

Tiger Lily watched the Taco King boat close in towards the shore, she waited patiently for Cayle to approach at first, it was his ki signature, but the power level was not the same. This observation made her pause for a moment, he suppressed to a specific level, which left her wondering what he was up to as he rushed across the pier wearing advanced armor she had seen once before he took a plunge into the open sea. In a matter of seconds, he emerged back to the surface after punching a king sized hardhead catfish onto the deck of the pier, the water tension on the fish’s scaled skin showed her a bit, which made her laugh as it had been a while since they went fishing together and he was not using the lures she made him. After he suffocated the fish, he stood up, and asked her if she was okay. Jack Pota was mistaken for Cayle, his behavior, ki signature, and his black wet hair framed his face overshadowing the clarity of his blue eyes after diving into the ocean which would have distinguished the two apart.
“I am okay, now that you’re here, Cayle--” Ty placed her hands on Jack’s shoulders and kissed him on the lips. Her ocean teal eyes half closed, feeling that his lips were sealed for a second, until he relaxed a bit she held him tightly getting her clothes wet as the ocean water cascaded down his armor.

Things felt... unreal.
Everything was different—heightened to a level he could scarcely stand it. He'd spent so much time in cryostasis this time, and had to wonder if those science officers had any intentions of reviving him again.
It had been days since that scrawny brat from Planet Vegeta and his friends busted him out. And yet a part of him had undeniably been left behind in that busted up pod.
He walked along the sandy shore, hands shoved into his pockets. Jeans, the Earthlings called them. Every bit as comfortable as they looked, and though coupled with a plain white T-shirt, he may as well have been walking about stark naked. They provided no adequate cover should he come under assault by an enemy. They didn't hug his form tightly like his old battle armor used to.
Out here in the open, with the salt-heavy breeze curling in upon him off the water, he was nothing more than a fish out of water. Not for the first time, he wished they had left him in that pod.
What was there for him in this world?
They were building a stronghold of some sort off some island. Apparently the scrawny brat owned it. Times truly had changed; the kid from Vegeta had grown a big pair of balls and wielded them to great effect. That only served to make Barlei feel even more out of sorts with this new reality.
He neared the pier, eyeing the orange-haired girl and who he thought was Cayle at first glance. Couldn't be—that punk wasn't shy about flouting his impressive power level, one that far eclipse even Barlei when he had been at the height of his power. So no idea who this other kid could be. Kids... goddamn kids, all of them. He didn't belong here.
He didn't belong anywhere for that matter.
His heavy boots thudded against the pier, his tail tucked tightly about his waist as he stalked onto the wooden walkway. He stood to one side, arms folded in deep contemplation of the stirring ocean waters around them.
"You're kissing the wrong brat." He cast a sidelong glance at the lovebirds. If they were back on Vegeta, someone's head would roll for such a mistake. But this wasn't Vegeta, nor did he give a damn what these brats were up to. "Figured I'd tell you before your boyfriend loses his shit."
He almost couldn't stand the thought of associating with these two. He'd truly fallen into a world he no longer recognized.

Jack was relieved when Ty mentioned she was okay, but then she called him Cayle. Cayle? With his low energy signature and shorter tame hair, how could he possibly be confused for him? His face contorted into confusion and he was about to protest before she placed her hands on his shoulders and kissed him on the lips. His entire face immediately turned red from the nice feeling of being kissed and hugged tightly by this girl he had only just met. He was then tempted to just go along with it and humor the girl to get some more of this closeness he was experiencing, he just discovered that he had the primal urge to mate; to have someone to call his own and share his affection with. But… As sweet as she was, she was already Cayle's, not his. Jack was hesitant at first, but he found the strength and resolve to turn his head away from her while he thought of the best way to break it to her. "No... I'm not him, not Cayle. I'm Jack. I just returned from the Southern Islands to regroup with him and the others. I'm happy for him though, he's a lucky guy." Jack explained and was prepared for any form of shock or retaliation, confirming what the older Saiyan had claimed. He didn't blame her, and it probably would have all been avoided if he had gone fishing bare-chested. He felt very guilty for accidentally deceiving her and causing her to unknowingly cheat on Cayle in the process. Hopefully this could still be resolved peacefully before things got strained. The very last thing he needed right now was to create a strained relationship with the young man that had spared his life instead of letting him die in the lab. Still, a part of him still wanted at least some kind of romantic relationship like Cayle did. Jealousy. That was a new emotion he didn't think he'd have... No, it was there before when he was only a Tuffle boy; but he was jealous of the power the Saiyans had at the time. Was he really worthy of someone who felt for him that way though? These thoughts then made him realize how lonely he felt... He wanted a special someone too...

Today Cayle’s scarf was not a scarf, but instead unwrapped and fluttering in the air. The orange-red colored cape fastened to his jacket with a pair of golden buttons and tied together with a chain to help keep it in place if a button got loose upon his dark blue denim jacket. Beneath it was a black graphic tee shirt he had found in his bag after the Shadow Anomaly that said ‘Destructo Disc’. A pair of matching denim jeans and a pair of black socks and black steel toed combat boots. His hair fluttered in the wind, and the Saiyan former farm boy watched the small legion of volunteers, workers, and ships show up on the unused portion of the Pilafland commercial docks where everyone was set up to load up supplies and building tools.
The son of the Pota Clan was silent, watching things occur and for a split second his spiritual energy spiked in pressure, his power level growing as he considered slapping Jack around for what had occurred, but he was not so high up in the air that he couldn’t hear what was said. It was an accident.
Barlei really was a bitter old man, it seemed. The saiyan warrior hadn’t even thanked Cayle and the others for saving him and the rest of the Saiyans who were being held as test subjects, had not even considered it. The way he wouldn’t look Cayle in the eyes most of the time spelled his resentment out quite clearly, but that wasn’t the point of the matter in this instance.
Cayle dropped onto the pier, not bothering to mask his power level or bothering to hold up his body in flight via spiritual energy, thus making his landing soft. He landed like a meteor onto the wood and concrete pier and it shook for a moment, before the Saiyan looked to Jack, Barlei, and Tiger Lily. Konja had either left already or was not here yet. Achido had no obligation to come help build Ensadala in the first place, though his help would have been appreciated.
“Some of us have greater foresight and thought than that, Barlei. Saiyan Pride shouldn’t beat out pragmaticism.” and indeed the fact that Jack Aspic, the Saiyan-Tuffle hybrid who had been spliced with Cayle’s DNA, was here, could only prove Cayle’s thought process on that. Pragmatism and compassion had won him another ally, even if his pride and sense of self surely felt a little attacked by the fact the Tuffle Science Executive had chosen to use his DNA to splice into Jack.
“If we want to be ready by the time everyone else rolls out, and by the time the supplies, workers, and rest of the tribe arrives on Ensadala, we should get to work loading up supplies from the trucks and warehouses onto the ships. Jack, that means you as well. And when we get to Ensadala and finish, you need to get some training in. You’ve been slacking.”
He said it without bothering to put an ounce of command or malice into his voice, but making his confidence in the statement clear, before beginning to do exactly what he said, picking up on of the cargo trucks over his head, and holding it fast before flying towards one of the medium sized cargo haulers they had purchased to bring supplies to pilaf land and from it as apart of their franchise expansion into Pilaf Land, and he held the truck over the edge, not letting it touch on the ship and flip it, while allowing human and weaker saiyan volunteers the ability to hop into the truck, grab boxes, and begin to unload them and hand them further down the line until they were placed in a stack upon a pallet or a cargo cage. There was only the contents of one warehouse to empty, and about five trucks, but thanks to Capsule technology it would provide them the materials to build and then some on Ensadala, especially with the fact they were using some abandoned human buildings that had been there and some abandoned Tuffle Science Executive and ISLET facilities which Cayle had broken into and tamed.

The sound of Barlei’s voice drew her attention for a moment, her ocean teal eyes were curious about his statement, causing her to doubt the saiyan elder that was recently saved from cryo sleep with a few others. It was until she heard Jack’s voice that she realized her mistake, it was softer than Cayle’s, and he was blushing with equal embarrassment as her as he spoke the truth of the matter. The teenage saiyan had an uncanny resemblance to her boyfriend that she made a mistake in identifying him at first glance, at no point did she ever learn about Jack, and she wondered what she missed to distinguish the two apart. “ Oh! I am so sorry! I thought—” Ty’s black cat eared hat almost flew off at the sheer force of Cayle’s arrival, he must have seen everything that transpired, no words escaped her lips, he spoke to Barlei and Jack completely ignoring her presence as he returned to load the ships after instructing the others to make the process faster. Growing up in isolation with just her parents and an elderly neighbor made Tiger Lily friendly towards everyone she met outside her immediate social circle. There were social cues and boundaries she was not familiar with until this very moment in time. While Cayle was slightly a few years older, she was struggling to keep up with his level of maturity, and felt rather foolish that maybe explaining herself would ease the turmoil she found herself in. “ With your wet hair overcasting your eyes, the armor, and the way you hunted that fish... I made the mistake of thinking you were him. You look so alike, he told me he was still looking for his missing siblings, I never knew he had found his twin brother.” Ty pleaded with her ocean teal eyes at Jack, “My saiyan father is also a twin and she is still missing. I have to go…”The red head teenager helped load all the cargo Cayle had purchased, to take care of the saiyan refugees, onto the Taco King ships that were on loan by company. Ever since Ty left home to study martial arts with Cayle and all her friends she was seemingly happy. Lately, she kept finding trouble, either by mistake, or the decisions she kept on making that put her in difficult situations. Today she felt she should have finished her university entrance exam and continued her studies rather than a frivolous pursuit of rescuing Saiyans if she failed at identifying Cayle. After everything was loaded, she sat on top of the fly deck of the boat’s bridge, looking down at the fully loaded main deck of stacked crates, and then the direction of the southern islands with melancholy on her face.

Even with Cayle flaring his power level and all the anger that he was feeling toward the situation, it was Jack's loyalty that had saved him; again. He expected to be slapped around at least, he was prepared for it as punishment for his recklessness, but he wasn't reprimanded in the slightest. Did he deserve that? Cayle had siblings of his own then... Jack never knew he did have siblings of his own before Jack even came into the picture as an experiment that directly involved Cayle's DNA. They took everything from Cayle, far more than had been taken from Jack on-top of all of the unethical experiments; and to top it off, Ty had mistaken him for Cayle and went into detail about how alike they were. Had his genetic mutation really gone so far that he and Cayle were identical twins on the surface? Sure, he still had his voice, memories, and genius-tier intellect, but he was so far gone mentally and physically from the person he had been prior to the experiment. What did he look like before his change? He couldn't remember, even as he racked his brain mentally. Did... Did everyone just see Cayle and not Jack when they saw his face...?
Jack was frozen emotionally were he stood before he made an attempt to pull himself together. It was then that he noticed Choi was now standing next to him, carrying Jack's things. "Go on ahead and help them Choi, I'll catch up with you." The young muscular Saiyan child that had accompanied Jack for all this time gently set down the items he was carrying, and flew over to help with the cargo on the ship while temporarily leaving Jack behind to deal with his insecurities. He picked up his sheathed Brave Sword and steeled himself once more. "No, I am Jack Pota. I am my own person, not a copy. Perfectly imperfect, with wisdom, power, and courage. They need me, and I need them. When they call, I will answer without hesitation!" Jack coaxed himself with renewed resolve as he strapped the sword over his right shoulder, and the carbine over his left shoulder to form an "X" where the two straps would overlap just below his chest. Finally, he slipped on his dark blue flip-flops and picked up the Goliath Catfish before flying over to the ship, where he used an empty capsule to encapsulate its mass for use later; storing it in a slot on the carbine shoulder strap before assisting the others with the cargo.
After they were finished, he took notice of Tiger Lilly sitting on the fly deck by herself. He figured it would be best to distance himself from her and leave her be until they reached Ensalada, and whatever plans Cayle had for him. It was true, he was slacking, but mostly because he hadn't found someone he could go one-on-one with yet. Yet, that was probably because he had spent so much time looking for an Artifact that could give them an edge against their enemies, however many there were still around. Starting today, he would dedicate as much time as he could to training and mastering his Swordsmanship along with the use of other weapon-based Martial Arts because he knew he wouldn't be as skilled a Martial Artist like the others anytime soon. So, without further delay, Jack searched around the ship for an open wide area where he wouldn't risk hitting someone or something as he drew out the Brave Sword and started his stances, sword swings, and breathing exercises.

With the free time Achido was currently having in Pilaf-land, he decided to fly off to the nearest Taco King. With his stomach empty, Achido was pretty much useless because he couldn't concentrate correctly with his tummy making tons of noises. As the young man walked up to the counter, he smiled wide at the male employee, while looking up to the menu. Achido already knew what he was getting, but it never hurt to take a second look. "Welcome to Taco King, what can we get for you today?" The female behind the counter seemed very nice, but that is their protocol for being such a great company. "I'll have the Taco Platter, please. Along with a bottle of water." He quickly dug through his pants pocket and pulled out his wallet and some Zeni, waiting to hear how much his total would be for the meal. "That will be thirty Zeni on the dot, sir." She said in a nice manner. Achido quickly pulled out the Zeni and handed it over.
As he waited for his food to finish up, he walked over to the side, allowing others to order their meals. Achido stood there patiently and pulled out his C-phone, wondering what Tiger Lily was up to. "Eh, I'll just surprise her." He said in a soft tone of voice, so the others around him couldn't tell that he was obviously talking to himself. Once Achido put his phone back into his pocket, the female brought the food to the counter and smiled wide, before walking back into the kitchen.
Achido grabbed the box and walked outside the small establishment, then made his way back toward the alley, and flew off in almost an instant. With the box tightly gripped with his hands, the man began to sense out where Ty was. He closed his eyes and smiled, then quickly turned to his right, and gave himself a boost, so he would fly at a much quicker rate. With a smile still present on his face, Achido flew as fast as he possibly could, hoping that he would be able to surprise his best friend.
As the air was blasting against his face and his hair slicked back from it as well, Achido could see a boat cruising upon the ocean waters. It was obvious that Ty was on the boat along with Cayle and one unknown power signature. "Leaving without me, huh? Couldn't wait ten minutes!" He muttered under his own breath, while continuing to fly closer to the ship. When the young man neared the skydeck of the boat, he landed gracefully behind Ty and grinned. "I hope you're hungry!" He said in a excited tone of voice, while holding the Taco Platter box out for Ty. Achido would catch up with the others later because he wanted to catch up with Ty, since he had basically ignored her the entire time at Cayle's birthday party.

The ships they were using weren’t all Taco King branded, but some of them were. At least one was shaped in the prow and painted to look like a taco in the ocean waters, with the fillings sticking out in places. It was one of the main semi-submersible Taco King vehicles which could be used to both sail through remote islands in the Southern Islands and pull up on their beaches to sell goods. Cayle himself had finished unloading a third truck with Ty’s help only to find Achido having arrived with Taco King. Despite the fact that they had plenty of such supplies and this expedition was largely sponsored by Taco King, the Saiyan would be warlord dropped to the pier’s wooden deck to grin at his blonde haired friend and nod, “Sure. What do you have?” He wasn’t what a normal Earthling would call hungry, perhaps a few steps away from peckish, but he knew they were going to be using a LOT of energy in the following hours setting up the Island of Ensadala, so it made sense for them to work on things quickly. “All we’re waiting on now is for Konja to get here and for everyone to board up.” he said, before noticing the absence of the spiritual energy and presence of Barlei. Where had that man gone? He almost wanted to stop everything to go hunt him down, but that would be wasting precious time and further than that, it didn’t matter. Barlei knew none of the secrets of the fledgling kingdom of Ensadala. [261] [962] Konja of Clan Korm Ty Achido Jack Pota

Tiger Lily forced a smile at Achido and Cayle, if anyone stared at her face long enough, the inner turmoil she was suffering was becoming obvious. The stress of betraying Cayle multiple times gave her a sense of panic, to make matters worse the teenage saiyan warrior was stoic with his feelings, and in his own way still kept everyone around including her. After becoming older by a year she was still trailing behind in assessing situations to keep herself out of trouble. The red head clasped her hands on her cat eared black hat and pulled it over her eyes internally screaming for a minute until she looked over to what her best friend was carrying.
“Achido, did you bring food? It smells familiar.” Ocean teal eyes stared at the symbol on the to go bag of food, “Taco King! Nice…Horchata would be nice right about now, even if I don’t deserve a treat like that today.”
There was melancholy in her voice, she hopped off the fly bridge of the boat and joined Cayle on the deck. With a pouting face she grabbed on to his track suit and started shaking him back and forth.
“Why didn’t you tell me you have an identical twin brother?! Why so many secrets! I tell you everything. It’s not fair because I accidentally kissed him thinking it was you! I am sorry!” Ty whimpered.

As excited Achido was to see Ty, it seemed that the woman had something on her mind and he wasn't going to pry. Hearing her voice was enough to make him smile, even though she already knew what he had in the box. "I figured it would be nice to treat my friends to a meal." He replied to her words, then watched as she hopped down to the main deck with the others. Achido smiled and hopped down himself, seeing Cayle and the unknown man who also looked a lot like Cayle. Achido scratched his head for a moment, trying to figure out exactly who he was.
Achido was rather happy to see Cayle there as well, so he gave the saiyan a nod and smiled wide. "This is the famous Taco Platter! Ever since I ordered this from Konja, I have always got the same thing every time I go. It never disappoints." He replied to Cayle with that same smile upon his face. "You're more than welcome to have a few Tacos! I mean, this is is from your taco joint, so why not?" He added, while glancing over to Jack and grinned. "Hey, I don't think we met before? My name is Achido! It's nice to meet you!" He said, while reaching out to shake hands with Jack.
Achido didn't know where they were heading or even why, but he just tagged along because his friends were his life and they meant everything to him. With the stranger there with them, Achido figured that Cayle or Ty could explain it all, but it seemed that Ty mentioned that she had kissed the man thinking it was Cayle. He was rather confused and unaware of what was going on, so he just kept his mouth shut and waited to hear what Cayle got Jack would have to say.

Cayle simply looked at Achido with a smile, taking the reinforced hyper-paper that was used to hold up the tray of food and grinning before almost moving to begin to eat a little bit of it as Ty joined himself and Achido. At her question though, about Horchata first, Cayle smiled.
“We have Horchata on one of these ships. The smaller ones, likely have it if you want some. Because they’re the mobile, amphibious taco truck-boats that I came up with that we normally use to service the more remote islands with restaurant food and package/mail delivery. If you want one while we take a snack break that’s fine, but to more important matters.”
He looked at Jack, and for a split second his smile fought between frown and smile, before turning absolutely, dangerously neutral. Emotion vacated Cayle’s face for a moment, and for that moment he looked more dangerous than he had ever looked before, there was the implication that his next movement could be anything, everything, or nothing.
“Jack was born Jack Aspic, a Tuffle. He didn’t believe in the way that the Tuffle Science Executive were treating we Saiyans, and so he was chosen as one of the first test subjects on forcibly splicing Saiyan DNA into a Tuffle, to see how it increased their strength, test for decreased intelligence, and any other things. The fact that he’s the son of the head of the TSE at the time didn’t matter to them.” He cracked his knuckles. “The Saiyan they chose to splice the DNA of into Jack? It was me. And I’m also the one who found him in the same bunker that I escaped from, it was some sort of test for me or some bullshit like that. Doctor Aspic is all about the mind games. But anyways, he’s Jack Pota now, a Saiyan-Tuffle hybrid, and consider him my brother. As that’s the easiest way to look at it.”
Then his seriousness flowed away and he grinned before disappearing into one of the smaller ships, showing back up with glass bottles of citrus soda, orange soda, and spicy cherry cola, and a 64 oz cup of Horchata for Ty.
“Let’s take a lunch break while we wait for Konja to show up.”

After spending a good amount of time practicing his sword swings and stances, Jack sheathed the Brave Sword and deliberately suppressed his power level to the point that it couldn't be sensed anymore in an attempt to practice his own Ki control. He then started to another energy foreign to him that soon seemed to be joined by the energies of Cayle and Tiger Lilly as he made his way back to where the others were. They were together after all as they spoke with each other as if they were close friends, but decided to stick around the group so Cayle wouldn't have to go searching for him if needed; but acted like his attention was caught by something distant in the sea, even though he was listening in on their conversation. However, he did catch a glimpse of the mixture of happiness and sadness in Cayle's very brief smile before he became neutral again with a very dangerous look on his face.
Jack's own resting face was one that looked like he was bored, uninterested, and quietly brooding; which usually worked out for him somehow. His attention was then brought to the active blonde who enthusiastically introduced himself and offered to shake his hand. The pleasure is all mine. You are the first one I've met with yellow hair. Going by your name, I'd assume you're at least part-human, yes?" Jack said softly with a smirk as he firmly shook Achido's hand, but was very curious as to how Human DNA affected Saiyan DNA. Jack certainly would have a harder time grasping his own potential because he wasn't born a Saiyan, and Tuffles were more known for their intellect than their power. When it came to the story that Cayle told, his smirk receded into a horizontal line as he watched Cayle carefully before his brother seemed to become happy again.
Cayle then brought up that they would have a lunch break while they waited for Konja, and Jack was relieved slightly that Konja was fine and still part of the group. He also remembered that he hadn't eaten yet, and he sat down cross-legged. I caught a Goliath Catfish that we could eat. Jack announced just after his stomach growled loudly from hunger, knowing full well that he'd need to eat a lot of food before being satisfied physically.

The attempt to shake Cayle failed, being his usual self, only answering questions, giving less than an opinion, and then the same look he gave Achido when he first met the teenage boy in the southern islands outside the construction site of their dojo filled her with dread. It was her fault for getting close to people, she was friendly to everyone, and she often followed her instincts rather than think twice. While she admitted fault and asked for forgiveness it was not enough for her saiyan boyfriend to accept. All the tension went away in an instant when he returned with drinks for everyone. There were benches on the pier, which she took a seat in, and took the horchata her boyfriend offered and took the paper bag from his hand after he ate a taco out of it--to take one for herself.
“Looking at Jack for a second time now, I know that he is different, apart from having the same hair and eye color. I acted on impulse, I knew something was off, but I normally don’t hesitate.” Ty was shifting uncomfortably in her seat, she was also not the type to let things go either, it was persistence that allowed her to become Cayle’s girlfriend in the first place.
