"I'm running out of words to use," Gray sighed, staring at the floating box. He'd been trying for the entire trip to Earth, and for the past few days, to figure out more about the status condition.

"Dumb game," Gray groaned as the box didn't change.

"Arrival on planet Earth will commence in 10 minutes." A robotic voice rang out of Gray's Saiyan pod as he lounged in the cramped pod and stared at the floating text box.

Almost there.

The past two days had flown by for Gray, leaving him with mixed feelings. On one hand, he was happy to have spent the time relaxing with his friends, but on the other, he was frustrated that he hadn't done much training. His original plan was to dedicate a few days to intense training in preparation for Earth, but Asia and Tamari had other ideas. They insisted on spending every moment with him, knowing they wouldn't see him for months, and he just couldn't bring himself to refuse them. The only 'training' he'd gotten in was spamming [Observe] and getting it up another level.

I know I should've been training, but it was... fun. The last two days were really fun.

For the first time since arriving in this world—especially after returning from Vargon—he felt like a normal human again. Walking through the halls of the large training facility with his friends, it almost felt like being back in high school, though the activities were quite different. Instead of watching a football game, he found himself watching sparring matches as Ren introduced him to the 'Arena,' an unofficial fighting area tucked away in one of the B-Class training rooms.

It was nice to just have fun for once, and not think about trying to overthrow an intergalactic tyrant for once. It's time to lock in though.

Gray stared at the small dot that was Earth as it grew bigger. The time for fun was over - he'd be fighting for his life now. Gray turned back to the floating status condition, an idea forming.
