DBitp IC VII: Down to Earth

[Lord Raziere]

Earth:
The Common Folk:
"Well screw staying around here, we need to get to Oxy City, I don't want my sons and daughters dyin' early without them Dragon Balls" says a good man
"Yeah and I want my chance at immortality" says a more selfish one in agreement
"Hold a moment, don't you join up with that bug!" says a third "Death to comes us all, we should accept it, sides one my friends who died says there is a Heaven thats better than any place living, so why linger around alive?"
"I don't want to."
Similar conversations like that occur, some devolve into fights over the matter, some with fists, others with gunpowder pistols. Some however don't care. Rulers were rulers, and rulers were all the same to them, not to be trusted.

Human Isolationist Movement
"Of course that bug would defend Jade Refera" says a man with disgust
"Them alien foreigners think they can control our lives. Bet Jades really is a saiyan."
"Yeah took her sweet time saving us from ol' Hailing didn't she?"
"He can take his Dragon Balls and leave, we don't need him, we're humanity."
"Yeah, we don't him or Jade around. Bet thems the reasons why the threats keep coming in the first place."
"Yeah, screw him, we don't need to listen to that bug"
The Human Isolationist Movement, widely spread across the world, does nothing.

Cult of the Supreme Organism:
"The supreme organism has spoken!" the fanatics say, speaking out as they walk the streets preaching to all "We have displeased him! We must do as he says, or we will lose the chance to ascend to his divine genetics and shed this coil of a lesser race! The Supreme Organism must be appeased or his method of miracles will be gone! We are nothing but rats to him, deserving of nothing but hatred until we prove worthy of ascending!"
A random man shouts back "aw shut up you bug lovers!"
"Kill the nonbelievers! This world must be pure of dissidents against his will!"
The cultist open fire on any who speak out against Oxyribo. More fights break out.

World Assembly
They are dealing with a bunch of people protesting outside....but not for the reason Oxyribo thinks:
"Screw both Oxyribo and Jade!"
"Don't let them boss humanity around!"
"They don't control our lives!"
"Show him and the ginger that we mean business!"
"Make the bug go away!"
They nervously consider this. And discuss among themselves.
"the demands of the protesters are unreasonable, we can't do these things, he is more powerful than us, we need to make to appease him while making it look like we're the ones winning."
"HOW!? This is going to turn out badly no matter how we do it."
"We just have to negotiate a reasonable deal with him, and then spin it in propaganda as a great victory where we closed a deal with an unreasonable alien being to the populace...."
"but they don't want him here! they are going to hate us for negotiating a deal at all!"
"But if we lose the Dragon Balls that will impact Earth's survive-ability..."
"There is civil unrest throughout the world, we have to do something...."

Earth, Somewhere secret:
There is a meeting between the New Nobles and Queensjade to discuss things. Both in working class clothing, but the Queensjades wearing green masks to cover their faces.
"So there be rumors that Jade and Oxy are back on Earth, right right?" says the New Nobles representative
"Sure, yeah, wot about it other than jade is that important, Yeh bloody wannabes?" says the Queensjade representative.
"I'm just thinkin', you need all the help you can get, and Jade not be viable. So yeh might want help with yer goal of making everythin' better. We can help."
"Ye can shove it up yours, ya tosser. Only Jade is worthy of the throne and no one else."
"Because she is a ki us-"
"NAH! Its not that ye blubbering idiot. She knows the people. She is a good person. Anyone sane trusts Oxyribo as far as they can throw 'im unless they want to join his stupid cult and go around acting like some tosser with no basic decency or respect shouting like a loonie. Jade gets that ki users are inherently dangerous, unlike you reckless fools."
"Look, all I'm saying is that Oxy has a hard stance about revolutions that works in our favor while Jade could go either way, based on their histories. We wait until Oxy inevitably tries to start one and we come out, kill all the nobles, present their heads to him and say we're the new ki nobility and that we'll get all the power to make things better as its new protectors and of course get that delicious wealth and power.....as side benefit! totally a side benefit. He'll love us."
"Riiiiiiight." the Queensjade representative says sarcastically, not believing him
"Oi! we can totally make things better! We'll with our new positions as ki using leaders of Earth. We'll deal with criminals and such much better!"
"Really? how?"
"We can aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh.....blast them fools when thems doing something suspicious. or read minds to see if they're bad and then blast them."
"Can you even read minds?"
"Yeah. totally. your thinking that its a good idea to join forces with us."
"Nay ye flaggin' blaggarts. I think ye just want to be ones to walk around drinkin' fancy wines and wearing fancier clothes while you ki blast the poor so they don't get any ideas about doin' a repeat performance on yeh. We'll have no part in your ki supremacist garbage. This is why only Jade's good fer the throne."
"yeah but didn't she let Fenrir take it, and isn't he a friend of her family?"
"We won't kill Fenrir, if he is a friend we'll just knock him out, he should spend more time with his kids like loving fathers should."
"Oh, what about the time she gave up power so that Apfel could rule?"
"She recognized her limits as someone who doesn't know the political environment that Apfel did, and if someone like Oxyribo could pull off Oxy City, then certainly Jade could do better!"
"And yer reasonin' for that?"
"Oh thats simple, Jade does everything better than Oxyribo."
"Wot."
"Yeah, Oxyribo merely liberated a city, she liberated entire galaxies. He has one friend who follows him, she has a family and an apprentice now. He terrifies people and antagonizes authority figures. She makes friends with authority figures and works with them for a better world. She even makes someone like VODKANA listen to her. He rules in one city, she is popular throughout the galaxy. She is widely acknowledged as the better fighter. She was the leader of the original Rebel Alliance and still is the leader today. She changes things for the better without making people fanatics dedicated to kissing the ground she walks on like he does. She does all this, while having LESS ADVANTAGES than him and without the need to proclaim how awesome she is.

Face it! Jade does what Oxyridon't! Why would we ever trust something important as ruling Earth to him, when Jade has consistently shown to get better results?"
"....because she has no experience being a ruler of lots of people?"
"That doesn't matter. whatever decision she makes, we're sure it'll be the right one. She will either be a good ruler, or hand power over to someone who will be."
"....thats a good point. can't deny that, given how well thats worked with Apfel."
"...then why don't you join Queensjade instead?"
"Because aaaaaah we want to rule with our ki powers and make things better for people as well as move up in the world and she probably won't allow us to do that..."
"Well yeah, she will actually go for ki user and normal person equality, yeh bloody tossers. Somethin' thats rubbish to yeh."
"Then why don't you just fight us if we can't agree?"
"Cause we don't need to- someone in the Rebel Alliance will find out about your bloody stupid goals and end you right quick-”
They hear the Oxyribo announcement. And stop
“Looks like things are moving.” the New Nobles say.

Oxyribo will soon receive two letters in Oxy City, one from the New Nobles, one from Queensjade.
