Videl wasn't done beating turrets into mechanical pulp when the shooting stopped and the turrets began to descend. She gave her turret one last kick as it left, breaking off a piece and leaving it firmly wedged in place.
Gohan was the first to break the brief second of silence. His tone of voice immediately sparked concern; he didn't sound anything like himself. She hurried toward him, intending to announce that she was going too (and honestly, who wasn't going?), but Wash’s instructions cut her off.
“But I--” She started to argue, to insist that she was going to follow Gohan instead, but when she looked at Wash, she could tell this arrangement wasn't up for discussion.
“Fine,” Videl conceded impatiently. She understood Wash’s logic without needing an explanation, but her concern for Gohan still warred against her good judgment. Crossing her arms, she waited by the opening for everyone else to descend so she could take up the rear.
