Information was worth the weight of a planet in gold if someone wanted it, and in the case of what Hale was learning there were likely a few at least that would want a peek if nothing else. Through all the conflict going on just on Earth, there was none more dangerous and high profile than that between the World Trade Fleet and the Saiyan Kingdom. One group had come warning of the impending threat seemingly, the other coming to chase the other and caused more than their fair share of issues. In the recent months passed Hale had shown people what they wanted to see; a meat-headed and dumb Arcosian with no direct allegiances who was just curious. The truth was Hale gathered information on the SK, the WTF, and all of this through simply asking questions, snooping around, and having access to certain records by simply getting in closer with those that could grant him access. Through all of his digging, Hale managed to find out about a curious being that had been exiled from the SK and the Planet Vegeta as a whole surprisingly. Hale's friend and part time promoter went searching out this Saiyan as he himself was a Saiyan, and found it perhaps easier for the two to meet, but the best he could find was an address he could leave a letter: "I was never good at the greetings in these things so I'm just going to jump right into it. My name is Hale, I am an Arcosian, no I don't work for any factions, but I am curious about you in particular. I would very much like to meet you if you would do me the pleasure of coming to my home located in the dead center of the Diablo Desert. Strange location I understand, but please come at your earliest convenience." The majority of the letter had been written by Hale's friend Lotus, but the sentiment was Hale's regardless, and was left slipped under a door for the Saiyan to find. A week had passed and Hale found himself delivered a letter returned to sender, and his eyes slowly moved to Lotus standing off to the side and just sighed. "So, either you didn't deliver this to a person, or you delivered it to the wrong house." walking by and slapping it onto his chest as he grabbed more lumber and walked by the other direction "Try again please." To Hale's annoyance, Lotus was gone nearly a week before returning, gave him a bit of a nod, and just flopped down dramatically. "I think I found the guy you described." It was by pure luck that Lotus found the Saiyan he was looking for between towns, as they matched the description of who he was looking for, and dropped down, and handed the letter towards them. "I'm hoping you are who I'm looking for as I've been looking for you for a while now. Your name is Rubard yes?" assuming he had the correct person, and looking as if he hadn't slept in days, he just held the letter out, leaving as soon as it would have been taken with no further explanation. If the Saiyan was to come looking for Hale, he would find him building what looked to be a fairly large structure kind literally at the center of the Diablo Desert.

Rubard was out in a field having his armor off as he was training in the punching and Ki blasting some boulders in order to increase his endurance and strength when fighting. His body was sweating as he's been out training for a while. He'd been training like this for the past few, he was panting and a bit and sensed someone coming on the horizon. He looked over to see a Saiyan flying over towards him. He sighed putting his armor on as he was ready to fight if he needs to.

He looked over to see a Saiyan flying over towards him. He sighed putting his armor on as he was ready if a fight was going to break out between these two.
He looked ready as the Saiyan landed as he asked if he was Rubard "That depends who's asking" he said as the Saiyan handed Rubard a letter. Rubard looked at him confusion but grabbed it opening the envelope. It talked an Arcosian named Hale, he was not very fond of the race since his race led the World Trade Fleet, the same fleet he was part of for a short bit and that took over Vegeta for a short time. The letter continued in telling him to meet Hale in Diablo Desert, He had no idea where that was but saw the Saiyan who delivered the letter leaving. Rubard assumed that the Saiyan who delivered the letter would be working for this Arcosian so Rubard decided to tail him.
Rubard was now in an arid dessert location devoid-ed of barely any flora aside from cacti. there was nothing but rocks and sand for miles as he fallowed the Saiyan to the location seeing him land in fairly large building in the middle of a dessert. He waited for him to land and slowly fallowed him going into the base and seeing a greyish-purple colored Arcosian "I take it you're hale, the one who had this Saiyan sent me a letter" he said holding up the envelope.

Hale glanced over as his friend returned and collapsed off to the side, rolling his eyes some, but was not expecting the other Saiyan to have followed so closely behind him. "You could have warned me he was here already, Lotus" the Saiyan giving a bit of a shrug on the ground. "Didn't know he was behind me" giving a heavy sigh and shaking his head, Hale wiped his forehead with his arm and walked slowly towards the new arrival. "You would be correct, I'm Hale. Sorry about the mess, I'm in the process of building a house." Looking over towards Lotus again, he kicked some sand towards him to get his attention and gave him a motion with his head. "The two of us need to talk alone. I'll come get you at the spot when we are done." The Saiyan gave a knowing nod and slowly pulled himself up, giving a wave as he flew off from the area.
"Sorry to bring you all the way out here, but I'm not sure who I can trust with what these days, especially given what I'm learning and what information I'm looking for." He began turning around as if looking for something, and grabbed a hammer half buried in the sand and went back about working on his house while talking. "I hear you used to work with the Saiyan Kingdom. I also hear you had a stint of working with the World Trade Fleet. Stop me at any time if you need to correct me." Loudly hammering between speaking. "I'll get right down to it, what was your name again, Rubard right? Here is how it is, I need as much information on both groups and I've been going to anyone and everyone I think might be willing to share what they know, regardless how little they can share. Do you know the names of any leaders, any bases, things like that." His eyes rested on the Saiyan for quite a while before going back to hammering. "In return, I'll try and return the favor, maybe you need information, maybe something else, you tell me. How's that sound?"

Rubard heard Hale's confirmation on who he was and watched the Arcosian and Saiyan have their little conversation and then looked at the tired Saiyan who left. He looked at Hale getting out a hammer and working on his home as he talked to Rubard. Hale seemed to forget his name for a bit but remembered right before Rubard was about to tell him. Hale then continued to talk about how he got some information about the WTF and wanted Rubard to basically give him information about it no matter how small it was.
Rubard then sighed and looked at the Arcosian from the back as he looked "Look the only reason i'm considered a traitor is because of how i did anything I could to survive when my planet was attacked. I maybe labeled a traitor, by my people, but I certainly wouldn't betray my own people by providing information to someone who just sent a minion to give me a letter." He told Hale. "I don't know who you are, what you stand for, or what you would with this information. For all i know you could sell it to someone who could use the information against the Saiyan kingdom. So I'm sorry to waist your time but I'm not willing to give information, however small it may be, to a complete stranger."

Hale turned back slowly and held a hand up "Hey, you don't have to explain to me about survival, trust me. I think we all unfortunately have our stories to tell when it comes to that. Or at least any of us that have had to live somewhere aside from Earth." He gave a bit of a laugh and nodded as he went back to his work. "I can respect that I suppose. I'm not looking for you to betray anyone if that is what you are worried about. Just some information is hard to come by because getting to people to ask the questions can be dangerous. I'm not looking to start a war just to find the name of the second in command of the Saiyans, you know what I mean?"
His Saiyan friend was finally completely out of view, and Hale put down any tools and sat down on the flat slab he was building on. "The guy you just saw leave, he is considered a traitor as well. We were fighting in gladiatorial combat, very long story, and found out he was in debt to the Saiyans, so I helped him escape when I left planet Vegeta for Earth quite a few years back. He can't go home, and while he didn't work with the WTF, they still don't look fondly on those of my race. I can see it in your eyes that you are weary of me as well." Rubbing the back of his neck he quickly exhaled, "I can see why you might not trust me given what I've asked, and I don't blame you, I just don't know else to do. I am Arcosian, but Earth has become my home. Put yourself in my shoes for a moment and try to understand that. I have some group of Saiyans showing up flexing their power, then the WTF I thought I was rid of years ago show up, start conquering cities, putting up camps and bases like they've moved in, and I don't know what the hell is going on."
Slowly Hale stood back up and walked away a few feet, starting to pace back and forth. "I've tried talking to the WTF a few times and if they don't just attack me on site then they only give me half information that isn't too helpful, and as for the Saiyans, they'd rather just kill me than say hi for all of the good guys they are supposed to be supposedly. What I stand for, Rubard is Earth, because it's my home. I am literally building a home here right now, right in front of you. I don't pretend to be some hero of the people but I'm not letting any of these people just show up and kill people, take over, whatever it is they want to do, you understand? I don't care for the Saiyan Kingdom in some respects, but I despise the World Trade Fleet for the most part. I'm just asking for help, that's all. I'm not asking for secrets, or locations of bases, or whatever I just want to know the names so I can seek them out, something to be better prepared. That's all."
