Caine raised an eyebrow at Keno's unfinished comment, having a pretty good idea of where he had been going with that. He shrugged slightly as he drank some more.
"Did I ever say I was concerned about them? I don't believe I did. I'm merely interested in Tybron and how my sister seems to have a sudden urge to go chasing after him again...."
He grinned slighlty. "It reminds me off old times...."

"Doesn't it?" Keno had felt there was a destined chemistry between the two. Even after all this time, he seemed to be the only one awate of the aura around these two. It didn't surprise him in the least when Jade went after him. "Well I saw it coming. Someone had to go after him. She's definitely got the higher liklihood of success." Keno sighed as he took a seat atop the stage. "What surprises me is how long they've been up there. Something tells me one...maybe the other...maybe both...might be having some issues. But there's little I can do about it."

Caine laughed suddenly, a cold, malicious sounding thing. A laugh like that hadn't been heard from him in a long time, one that used to send shivers up peoples spines in his previous days.
"Heh heh! Oh yes, they're having issues....he's hiding from her! I believe that Tybron doesn't want her anywhere near him!"
He laughed again, but before Keno could question him about how he knew this, Caine smirked.
"Her thoughts were so annoying, that I finally decided to stay out of her head. She's gotten lucky though, with people helping her, or else she'd already be dead....."
He laughed quietly to himself still, oddly amused by this whole situation, lifting his bottle once more.

"That so? She's fortunate then. I wondered how she would manage." Keno seemed to be as indifferent about Caine's cruelty to Jade as he was of User's resentment of him. Nature had to be embraced rather than fought against. "Well to any end, she's in for a world of hurt when she gets back. I don't intend to sit idly by as much as I used to. She's got a way to go still. It's almost as if her Saiya-jin blood has become defective." Speaking of training, where was that fox at? She was more delicate, but he didn't intend to slow down with her either.

Caine raised his bottle, as though in a toast to Keno.
"All the power to you then. She seems as weak as they come now. She's lucky I wasn't around much before she left, I could have killed her so easily."
He shrugged and drank some more, though the alchohol itself had little effect on him. It was mostly for the taste.
"I would like to try and have a decent fight with her before I kill her though, make it worth my time....Then again...."
He paused for a moment as he took another long pull, tilting his head back for a moment.
"Ahh....then again, I haven't had a decent fight in a long time....fighting myself gets boring after some time...."

"I empathize, but I also warn you to be careful what you wish for Caine. If Jade shows half the effort I expect, you'll be forced to kill her just to win a friendly fight. But then again, if fate smiles on you, I won't have nearly enough time to train her adequately to survive you." Keno had been rather bored with training as well, but he was content with the tidbits here and there that still kept him in shape. With a shrug, he spun around on the stage and fell backward, hanging from the stage by his calves. "Maybe one day I'll humor again."

"As long as she's strong, then I won't be ashamed to call her my sister....besides, if I actually have to try to kill her, that'll make it that much better."
He grinned, clenching his hand tight into a fist, straining the bandages on them to the point of breaking.
"I'd like to fight you sometime...I'm in no condition now, unfortunately. And that pathetic Prince-wannabee....I can't dare let him get ahead of me...."
He laughed slighlty. "Though I'm not dumb enough to go picking a fight with Tybron now, not after that stupid archangel attacked him...."
He seemed to have finally turned his attention fully to Keno again.
"So what have you been doing? Without my dear sister around to train...?"

"Training Ichigo," he answered matter of factly. "Myself as well of course. I don't have much say in the matter though. I can't be everywhere." He sighed as he thought on his own training. His energy was a lot more tame, but only in the sense that it was more unstable as well. Training to use his energies as ki and chakra was both accelerating and decreasing his progression. Kind of a paradox in a sense. "What else do I do with my time? Ever since I've been here I've only aimed to get stronger, and I think I've done a pretty good job at securing myself at the top of the chain. Wouldn't you say?"

Caine nodded slowly, closing his dual colored eyes for a moment.
"Mm, yes, I can't disagree with that. You are one of the strongest here...I would have been too, but people seem look down on me now ever since I let that Unks kid beat me...."
He growled a little before cooling down again and taking another drink from his bottle, more than half of it gone already.
"But since I haven't been around, and Taliman and Tybron are gone, you are probably the strongest here....."
Caine glanced up at a clock on the wall, making note of the time.
"Hmm...I can't linger too much longer....got a schedule to maintain..."

Keno's eyes, though still lazy in appearance, flashed with surprise. Why on earth would he let Unks win? What purpose would that serve. He knew the way Saiya-jin worked. Unks would either become deluded or enraged if or when he found out. But Caine was too cold hearted not to have a reason, whether good or bad for the common poeple. "Well to either end, I should get going as well. I need to take a training venture. If I ever will anytime soon, tonight would be a good one to start. Good luck." Though he said this, he didn't move much, his body simply fading lightly, in case there were any last minute measures he needed to take.

Caine grinned a little, catching the look of surprise in Keno's eyes. But he didn't bother to explain himself to the other, feeling no need to do so.
He simply nodded in Keno's direction as he hopped up from his stool, picking up his spear again and shouldering it, taking a long pull from his nearly empty bottle and heading towards the door. As he got there, he turned slightly, and saluted with the spear.
"Later."
And with that single word, he was gone.
