Strobe's stomach growled slightly: it had been a few hours since they had escaped, and they would have been fed by now. "Where do we get food at out here?" he asked the new girl, as he still knew nothing of the outside world. It wasn't good to fight on a completely empty stomach.

The helicopter rounded the cliff, and the blip on its radar appeared within it's veiw. The rest of the experiment's signals were coming back on, but they were still too weak to track accurately. This experiment could be caught for the time, there were already several other tracking units in pursuit. The helicopter turned to the side, and a passenger was revealed, he quickly aimed a sedative projectile through a rifle and fired.

Crow glared at the helicopter as it rounded the corner, they were probably better prepared this time around. He watched carefully as it turned its side to him, then the sniper came into veiw, Crow's body tensed, things just got more difficult. He watched the gunner's trigger finger eagerly, then just as it pulled back Crow hopped far out of the way of the trajectory so quickly that a short pillar of sand was kicked up beside him. After this he slowly began moving behind an outcropping of rock, hopefully forcing the copter to chase him.

With much disappointment the man in the helicopter lowered his gun, he made a few motions and the helicopter rounded the corner that Crow had taken cover behind, simple enough of a feat. This time though, it did not turn to allow the man on the side to aim, instead below the cockpit a small vulcan began to turn and take aim at Crow.

As they walked, Strobe sniffed the air. He stopped and turned. Then he began walking away from the group slightly. Because of his power to use Plasma, which was superheated air, he had developed a few strange senses to do with the air, such as feeling the air currents and jetstreams, and having an accute sense of smell. The smelling one he was using right now. For there was a scent, one he rarely smelled except on the Perfume of one of the female scientists. He thought it was called -- "STRAWBERRIES!" He told Kioko, looking at the full and ripe bush. He quickly picked one and tasted it. It was delicious, more delicious than the ones that they were (rarely)given at the lab as treats.

Kioko jumped when Strobe screamed, thinking it was an attack, but when she understood that he said strawberries, she just laughed.. "haha, it looks like strobe hasn't eaten real world food before..." Kioko said between laughs... "for a second i thought it was an attack!" Kioko said taking a red ripe strawberry and popped it into her mouth... "mmmhhhh, i havent had strawberries, since Hikari gave me some on my birthday this year!" KIoko said getting more to eat....

Jackie sweatdropped slightly as she watched them devour the strawberries. "U-Um..." She began as she walked over to them. "You know there is much more and better food once we hit town, right?" She asked them as she smiled, clearly pleased at how much they don't know about anything outside of the lab.

Crow was thankful that they hadn't anticipated his trap, as the helicopter came into view he made a dash under the helicopter, kicking up a short wall of water in his trail. When he was just about under the center of the helicopter he turned to face the opposite direction, sliding to a stop. From here he slapped his hand onto the ground, causing it to glow with the same light he had placed there before. From the ground a large wall of Ki erupted and crashed up into the helicopter, nearly cutting it into two. Crow rose to his feet and prepared to attack, observing the damage.

"There's other foods?" asked Strobe, "Do they grow on bushes, too?" The space around his mouth was stained red with juice, a few chunks of strawberries were still in his mouth and were visible when he spoke. After all, he was trained in assasination and espionage, not in etiquite. The juices of the fruit ran down his arm and sizzled slightly as his hands were constantly superheated to make plasma. It wasn't somethind he could control, but the smell of burning strawberries was slighlty nauseating. "Sorry." he said, a little shamefacedly.

Jackie giggled as she watched him. "No no. It's okay..." She said as she smiled gently at them. "When we go into town there are so many different varieties of food. And the thing is...some of them grow on trees, others on bushes, and some are genetically made by the humans." She sighed slightly as she tapped her chin with one finger thinking of more to tell them. " But once they pick these foods from the Earth, they place them in stores to be bought and sold for the profit of the store owner. But overall, everything tastes delicious and I can help you pick out things that you would like..."

The helicopter twisted around, and was soon to hit the ground, however, due to the capabilities bestowed upon it, it maintained its flight. Then even as it struggled to stay in the air it began to meld together where the machinery had been cut in half, repairing itself. Soon it was moving around Crow like a shark, and its vulcan began firing a rain of shells upon him.

"really?' he asked her, picking another ripe strawberry from the bush. He noticed the juices dripping down his chin and immediatly wiped them away. "I guess that's where money comes in, right?" he asked, taking a key out of his pocket.

"yea, sorry, i know there are other better foods...but strawberries are one of my favorites ever since i was a kid...the last time i ate them was when Hikari gave them to me at the lab before they fired her for an early bday gift.." Kioko said popping another one into her mouth... "i got captured to be an experiment when i was about 5 or so...so the real world isn't a new place for me..."

Crow's eyes widened as the helicopter turned and began firing, it was so much faster than last time, and it was being much more aggresive. Caught in the fire Crow did his best to escape the spray of lead, dashing to the side and continuing to watch the gun.
