Tegan and Plum had started walking through the encampment, looking for potential recruits and talking. Tegan was happy with his first choice, Plum was a physical fighter with range capability. The alien nature alone would allow him to catch many primes off guard. A veteran of the Omniverse knows to treat every encounter as an alien encounter, your opponent could morph into a dragon or fire a barrage of missiles at you. It was a simple bonus to start the battle off looking like a real threat. Plum wouldn't be enough though, he was nearly the same type of fighter as Tegan. They were going to need an array of ability in order to capture and bring back a Prime like Gilgamesh.
"So what's your story Plum? Where are you from?" Tegan was interested in learning more about his allies, in case they ever became foes of course.
"Well, before joining the Baron I lived in Coruscant. Before you ask, yes I was with the Empire. The life of an Empirical soldier seemed like the way to go. Then they made me walk the streets of the sixth and seventh tier... those slums... even for a soldier of the Empire it was almost impossible to make a good living. I eventually started dealing with the criminals in order to make ends-meat. Weapon and Drug running. One day I was finishing a deal with some providers and you'd never guess who walks down the dark alley..." Plum put both his hands on his head.
"Who?" Tegan asked softly.
"The fucking Judge himself. Dredd... in the fucking flesh. I swear on Omni. I panic and think of the only option I've got. I blow the clients away. Tell the Judge that I caught them trying to run drugs up to the sixth tier... The Judge points his finger at me and says 'Keep up the good work down here' and then walks away. I shit you not... and I'm sitting there with two dead employers, who were working down the chain of one of the baddest crime bosses Coruscant. My street cred is ruined and if I stayed I'd be a dead man, and if the Empire found out about my affiliations with the syndicate I'd be vaporized. So I went rogue. dashed into the desert and eventually got picked up by the Baron. All I want is to get stronger and one day stick it to the Empire. They made me do what I did. Pieces of garbage, all of them." Plume slammed his fist into his opened hand.
"I know the feeling of hating the ruler you serve under. Believe it or not we were enemies at one point. If not for the Baron we might have crossed paths and slain one another." Tegan nodded to Plum. "Where are you from before the Omniverse?"
"Defacto from the Kingdom huh? Not too surprise with your power, you must have been higher up in the chain." Plum snickered at Tegan, "Before the Omniverse though, huh? That was so long ago, it feels like an old dream. Life there wasn't much better though. Had to worry about being killed by your all powerful leader if he was having a bad day or Zarbon didn't massage his tail in the morning..." Plum laughed at his own joke. "I used to be a part of Galactic conqueror's army. His name was Lord Frieza. I was summoned here originally by Dr. Gero as a test subject. He wanted to summon every species from our original Universe to dissect and study. Kind of a dream of his from before the Omniverse. Even after all that Hell he put me through, I still ended up at the bottom of that cesspool." Plum looked extremely bitter.
"Forget that now. Soon we'll be dinning on King's flesh and then we'll be on our way to it our former King and Emperor." Plum and Tegan smiled together and clasped their right hands together. They returned to their search. "Now what about him?" Tegan pointed at a man hunched over a solitary game of dice, he had a scoped rifle on his back with short gray hair and what looked like tattered hunting apparel. "Excuse me fellow kinsmen, you wouldn't happen to be a hunter by trade would you?"
The man looked up from his dice game, holding the pieces in his hand. He rolled them, showing them to be human teeth. "Snake eyes again... I think they're loaded." He looked up and smiled at Tegan, showing four rows of white teeth.
