A prison guard would be interrupting whatever Rhona's routine was for the mid afternoon.
"Inmate Hall... There is a very strong Power Level coming towards the prison at what can only be described as a leisurely stroll..."

“Yup, I feel them. Do we have any kind of visual?”
She would be working under a riding lawnmower which was propped up by a knee she was a bit grimy and dirty from the work but it paid ok for prison wage. She rolled out from under it. “That kind of approach I would assume they don’t have any violent intentions. Should I wait to see if they are visiting someone or just… go out to meet them before reaching the entrance?”

"We can't pin down exactly who it is, the population is too dense for our scanners. We have officers going to check it out though."
The officer looks to the side then back at her.
"It's best they don't come in here, simply due to the security risk."

“Alright…” she chuckled. “Call my people and if this gets ugly we’re gonna negotiate a small reduction of my sentence.”
She would take off in a sprint until the doors were open at her appearance and she took off in flight. Within seconds she was ahead of the dispatch they sent and made her landing where the bright energy that approached it was a firm landing and she looked at them. If they didn’t attack outright she would close the distance with a chill walk.
“Afternoon, I’m Rhona Hall.” She extended a hand as she was but a few feet from them before she stopped. “Look you got the other guys sweating a bit and they just wanted to see what was up and they sent me to check you. So go ahead and make your intentions known.”
She offered the choice right here right now.

She would find the guy casually walking up the road, though when she began approaching she would find he had stopped moving, waiting for her to find him. When she did he would nod at her introduction. "I am Kussetsu of the Wolf Clan. I know that means nothing to you, but I figure we need to have a chat."

She dropped her hand and looked him up and down at his tattoos and his demeanor all together. In the moment she couldn’t simply guess what this was about she would go ahead and outright ask.
“Alright… I’m all ears.” She made an “oh” escape her lips and pointed a finger in realization to another question she wished to make clear. “Did I wrong you or yours in the past?”

"Huh?"
He says as he was about to lead the way picking wax from his ear.
"Wronged us? No, I don't believe so. Yer grandma prolly pissed off the Quake Clan back in the day."
He'd shrug and begin walking.
"I talk better when I'm moving around."
Meaning he had no direction or place in mind, he just preferred to be on the move.

“My Grandma?” Her attention snapped and straightened as she reached to grip his shoulder. “Alright hold up you better start with what you want to say because she was just murdered… and if it has anything to do with that then you got some answering to do.”
Her brow furrowed and she stared at him hard. She would release his shoulder and allow him to walk but that was a firm warning.

"She died? Hmm, murder too. That's surprising. She was pretty strong, musta been a hell of a fight."
He'd understand her meaning so he'd just sigh.
"So, let's see... Long time ago yer Grandma was on Terrac, joined up with the Wolves. One of the leading forces in growin' it so big as it is. Quake Clan had been doin' all sorts of tricky battles and strategies over the years, fuckin' cowards. So, when she vanished and stayed that way for years, we assumed she died. Then comes the spittin' image blasted all over the broadcasts fightin' in some tournament."
He'd shake his head.
"If we'd of known we'd of been in the stands cheerin'. Either way, not the point. Took some diggin' for us to find out you were an Earthling, so the Wolves sent me to touch base with ya'. On account I'm prolly your closest livin' relative. Beside's my son. See yer Grandma was my mom too. So I'd say I'm yer half uncle."

“I wish I knew… there is nothing left but dust where she used to live.” She breathed a bit of relief but the furrow in her brow didn’t leave. “So, you know nothing about it and are not involved.”
She didn’t hide the grim tone in her voice she was almost hoping for some better answers but he was giving some decent information so she was gaining something to work with. “Terrac… so she had a family there before she came here and even started another? You don’t seem too bothered by it or even questioned that she might have been alive. Not I don’t know much about life of Terrac or that she had other family… considering it sounds like she just up and left yours. Were you really ok to just leave it at that?”

He'd let a different grin cross his face. Like he remembered something exciting or hidden.
"It's not that it never bothered me. She was my mom, ya'know? It's more like I knew she was tough as anyone and if Quake had actually gotten her, they would of made a big announcement about it, to brag. I always figured she was somewhere doing something important. If she wanted me involved she'd of said somethin'. Other than that, I figure I was needed more on Terrac than whatever she had goin; on here. We aren't a very smart people in general. Fightin' is kind of our thing."
He'd slam a fist into his own palm and grip it.
"But, if I find the bastards responsible for endin' her happy days, you'd best bet I'd use all that fightin' experience to destroy 'em."

She raised a finger and her mouth parted but stopped herself and realized how that checked out well enough. And then that finger dropped and her mouth closed. She searched her memory really starting to understand some perspectives she hadn’t quite realized in the time they happened.
“So I’m her spitting image… so spitting you were certain that you came all the way here to find me?”

He'd turn to look at her as he walked.
"Yeah, close enough you look almost exactly like she did when she left."
A ringtone would go off and he'd check around for the device. He'd pull it out and check the caller. He'd frown and hang up. Putting it away he would nod to Rhona.
"We don't want nothin' from ya' if that's what ya' think. Wolf Clan as we are, we just wanted ya' to be aware of us. Let ya' know we exist. Though might be some hfil raised when I tell 'em back home she was murdered. What'cha know about it?"

She pointed to the horizon where in the distance there were mountain ranges faded along the sky line. “If you head west there is a bunch of mountains. At the near base of the tallest was my home follow the train south from that ghost town to a lake side town and you’ll see a major empty spot which looked like a meteor straight slammed miles long through the land. It upturned so much earth and burned so much Flora… there was nothing recognizable and no body that could be found.”
She grimaced. “It was while I was at the tournament and just about the same time someone blew up Namek. It seemed almost coincidence. Also I was almost arrested by another group of people. It just all felt like it was something I did. That I caused this…”
“So I’m here… in prison… because for a completely unrelated reason; I murdered those that killed my own Mom and Dad.” She chuckled sadly. “Yeah really feels like I’ve got some bad karma hanging on my shoulders.”

Kussetsu slows to a stop at her mentioning why she was in prison.
"Your grandma was murdered... And both your parents?"
He turns fully towards her.
"That's unusual for Earth... And singular targeted attacks like that sounds like sneaky strategy shit. Sounds like Quake Clan."
He grits his teeth as a blood vessel on his forehead becomes rather pronounced.
"Somethin' aint right."
