"So this is Konats." Kraktus stepped out of his ship observing the sandy world. It was disgusting and a nuisance. Why anyone called a sandy rock like this home was beyond him. But that didn't matter he was not here to ask questions of why someone wanted to live on this planet. He was looking for people. He was looking for the Stargoons. He was planning to head to Knutts but an error in his computer lead him here instead. Guess they thought it was the same planet even if was not. He made a mental note of get someone to give a look at his ship next time he got the chance. He didn't want to head to a planet called Earf instead of Earth next time. Konats had at least some use since that Konatsian Ashi might be on planet. At the very least he could ask about her.
Kraktus walked into town hearing people speaking about some sort of funeral that had happened the day before. Kraktus turned his head to listen to two folks. "Yah Prince Typha died again? Guess he really is a reckless fool huh?" A man spoke. The Woman hushed him. "Careful he saved us before and this time. He was a good man." Kraktus grunted. They were both fools this Prince Typha had died. That meant he was weak simple as that. There was no other reason. But if someone like that died that meant Ashi could be on world. Kraktus decided to do this the simple way. Kraktus ki flared out in the middle of town blasting people away. "AHHHH." The woman pointed. "It is a squid...monster?" They all began to run. He knew Ashi would find him with this. She'd know it was trouble if he came stalking up to find her. Or maybe some other Konatsian warriors would come not that he had a problem with that.

Ashi supposed she hadn't exactly come to Konats to relax, per say, but she was pretty sure she didn't want to get into any big fights or see anyone she didn't want to see anytime soon. ...Granted, one of the first people she'd seen on the planet was Riis, so she supposed she'd already blown it on that front. Still, that didn't make her any less annoyed when she'd been waiting in line for a drink at one of the local bars she'd been missing during her time away, only for a massive blast to cascade everyone's ears from outside. "Wh-What was that?" a Konatsian man worriedly exclaimed. "Have the robots returned already?" another shouted in fear. "Goddammit," groaned Ashi as she stepped out of the line and made her way back outside, pushing her way past several other panicking locals who were all fleeing in fear from the source of the blast. She had a few ideas as to who or what might've caused it, though she was kind of taken aback by who it actually turned out to be.
"Kraktus?" she asked in a mix of surprise and annoyance. "What are you doing here? Look, if you're here to cause trouble, I'm gonna have to ask you to piss off, cause this planet's mine." She crossed her arms and frowned at him as she stood her ground while all the rest of the Konatsians around them continued to flee in fear. Ashi couldn't say she was particularly proud of her people's general lack of courage, but she also supposed it wasn't like any of them could do anything against Kraktus besides herself. Besides, most of them were probably still shaken up from having been killed or nearly killed by all those robots just a few years prior. And after all that had happened there, the last thing Konats needed was some overpowered squid wreaking havoc - it didn't much matter to Ashi that Kraktus had been considering hiring the Goons before; this was a personal matter unrelated to the business end of things. "In other words, get lost, Squidward." She could only hope he'd get the message and just leave.

Kraktus scouter picked up the strongest ki on the planet quickly approaching his spot. So he was able to grab her attention. She really had gotten stronger, Kraktus had to admit she might be able to give him a bit of trouble now. Still, it was not as if Kraktus had not gotten stronger. He was leagues above when they first meet. Guess both had evolved a great deal since there last meeting. She asked the good question right away which was if he was going to cause trouble though he snorted when she claimed it was her planet. "Your planet? I thought the Goons didn't take holdings like planets? Not that I care you can rule this rock for all I care. I came because I was looking for you. Well, not you I was looking for all the Stargoons."
Kraktus crossed his arms looking at Ashi. How should he act to her? He had gotten over most of his anger but he was still mad at the Goons for working for Cress. Yet that'd not help him he had to be smart and with his expanded thoughts from his new little life on Earth he sighed. "I was angry when I heard you all took a job from Cress. I don't like him much in fact I want to kill him. So I talked to Bamboo to learn if you all decided to go on his side and work for him solely. From what I understand the Stargoons are not the biggest fans of his. However, I am aware that what I want requires the consent of the Stargoons. If I went and killed Cress or tried too I don't doubt you all would try to stop me. So I want to hire you all to help me deal with Cress. So I am here to gain your support." He ignored her attempts to insult and send him off. He wanted to get what he needed across and then deal with the insults.

Ashi rolled her eyes at Kraktus' comment about the Goons' policies. "I don't own or rule the planet, smart Alec," Ashi replied with a sigh. "But I do live here, which makes it mine." She thought someone as self assured as him would've been able to tell the difference there, but apparently not. She still wanted to know what exactly he was doing here, since he actually did pose something of a threat - Ashi was powerful, but not as powerful as this guy if he went at her with everything he had. And it wasn't like Konats was chock full of strong characters to help defend it, either. If Kraktus wanted to wreak havoc, Ashi was the only defense this place would have for the moment. Luckily, though, the squid seemed more concerned with the Goons' dealings than anything to do with Konats. Ashi's brows furrowed and she crossed her arms as the squid man expressed his displeasure with their partnership with Cress.
"Tch. Well, get in line for the hate train, pal," she replied with a shake of her head. "He basically stabbed us in the back as soon as he was certain that we'd done the job for him, so, yeah, fuck that guy." Ashi was still borderline fuming when it came to thinking about that dumb old Saiyan. As a matter of fact, it felt like just about everyone who had hired the Star Goons on at some point had gone back on their word. Maybe they should just, like, become their own independent organization. She could talk to Mumbo about that later, though. If Kraktus was in the business of killing Cress, Ashi couldn't deny her interest. She paused for a few moments while she pondered what the squid boy had to say. "Hm," Ashi mumbled, her thumb slowly brushing against her upper lip as she began to reply.
"I won't say I'm not interested," she said, "But right now we have something of a bad track record with our employers backstabbing us after the job is done. And you're kind of fishy - no pun intended. So I'd need something of a guarantee that once the deal is done, you won't screw us over afterwards." She folded her arms and sized Kraktus up and down again, wondering whether or not he'd be willing to take out some kind of insurance. If he went along with it, and things worked out well, then maybe they could use this kind of strategy for any future employers, as well. "So... What can you do that guarantees your loyalty to us?"

"So because you live here the planet is yours." Kraktus waved his hand. "A bunch of excuses but I ain't here to tell you what is right and wrong. If I wanted to do that I'd of already planted you in a seat somewhere and pulled out the chalkboard." Kraktus shook his head. As for Cress Ashi didn't like him either. Good that was exactly what he wanted to here. "Ah I see you guys really do have a bad track record. Betraying you at the worst time. Making you all do all you can to win him his glory. He was always in it for himself. You should have never taken up his job. If I was less forgiven I'd of just turned to the "Good guys" and helped them crush you all. Honestly when I heard you all worked for him, A man who mocked me and who is a deadbeat I was downright furious. But I was surprised when Bamboo talked me down. Of all people, no offense to her but I didn't think she'd say anything that registers as wise to me. I have been too inflexible and I being too rigid in my planning. So what do you say?" Kraktus waited for her answer hopefully he would get the yes.
Instead, he got the a hm and then a no for the time being. Kraktus would have frowned but he kept a straight face. This was not the time to get angry. She probably had a good reason and if not he knew he could leave them behind. Luckily for both of them she had a good reason and that was being betrayed over and over again had taken its toll. It was not going to be so easy to work with another. "I respect that. It is not easy and I am to be trusted. Your wise to think I am someone not to work with. Honestly, I just want war and I want to win it. How I get there it does not matter. But you want something to prove I had no plans to betray you. Hmmm..." Kraktus looked around. He raised his right arm pointing to her flat side to her. "Cut my arm off. I won't stop you. I'll seal my pack with my arm. I only need one to rule the world. My Arm can easily be replaced with the arm of the Stargoons that will rush across the universe. I don't plan to be stopped in my plans. If I have to lose everything. I will lose it in a heartbeat. Plus if you take my arm that will cut my battle level a good deal. It is a win-win for you. I am giving you all the advantages."
