"Completely absurd! And foolish! And stupid!" Cloud Retainer barked, pacing the room.
"Don't you have machines that could have me healthy in minutes?" Wu asked weakly. Moments ago, he had been moved to a bed in yet another subsection of Cloud Retainer's abode. He had bandages wrapped around his head, covering the wound he'd sustained courtesy of his "overly enthusiastic meditation", which was in truth caused by Shenhe. "Speaking of which, how many levels does this damn domain have...!?" He asked, sitting up.
"Quiet." Shenhe said, pushing him down with one hand, earning a shocked grunt from him. "You need rest. Real rest. Your body will recover with master's machines, but mental fatigue will still accumulate until you keel over."
"Precisely! One is not sure what barbarians raised you, but you train like a fool with no regard for his life! Do you intend to break yourself down to the brink of death over and over again in pursuit of strength!?" Cloud Retainer spat.
...
"Yes." Wu said without a trace of doubt.
...
...
...
"Unbelievable..." Cloud Retainer said, facepalming.
"Listen, I don't think you know how Saiyan bodies work-" Wu tried to sit up again, only for Shenhe to push him back down. "For the love of...!" Wu hissed.
"The very fact that you can't resist me is testament enough to the damage you've accumulated." Shenhe said.
"And whose fault is it that I'm so damaged, you bipolar-Gahrk!!!" Wu cried out as Shenhe pinched the skin on his arm brutally, gripping a fingerfull of flesh hard enough to bruise it, preventing him from spilling her involvement in his injuries.
"You will rest as per my master's instruction. That is final." Shenhe said.
"Very good, my student. Perhaps you can give him a lesson on following one's orders." Cloud Retainer beamed proudly, making Wu hiss at the irony. "One will be forced to construct a drone to watch you at all times, as you cannot be trusted alone..." Cloud Retainer hmphed at Wu. "In the meantime, Shenhe will keep a close eye on you." Cloud Retainer said. "Be aware of them ore unsavory parts of his character, and do not let him be a bad influence on you, my student." Cloud Retainer turned to Shenhe.
"Of course, master..." Shenhe said, bowing. Wu shuddered as he noticed the smallest hint of a smirk on the corner of her otherwise tight lips.
"Then one will be off once again!" Cloud Retainer said, leaving them.
...
"Now what?" Wu asked, lifting his head from the bed.
"Now, you rest." Shenhe said.
...
...
...
"Don't wanna." Wu said, crossing his arms.
"You're acting like a child." Shenhe said.
"And how do you know how children act, miss "I was raised by animals"?" Wu asked tauntingly.
Shenhe was still for a moment, suppressing any violent impulse that flashed in her head.
"If you won't rest of your own accord, I could always use one of ten ways to get you unconcious." Shenhe said calmly.
...
Wu sighed, laying back on the comfy bed. While he would enjoy another scrap with her, he was far from any condition to even dream of matching her for more than a minute.
