Welcome to Gaia! ::

"They have been trying to make the perfect beings for many years now..." Jackie said as she sighed heavily. She looked at her clawed hands and clenched them softly. "The scientists used to keep testing on us to make us perfect. And when we would not exceed their expectations, they would kill us..." She said softly at them, looking around from face to face. She then motioned to Crow with a solemn expression, her cheeks still stained with her recent tears. "They made one like you a good 20 years ago. I remember him when her created a way to escape their abuse..." She said as she stared at him with her onyx eyes. "We got away...but they killed him because of his self-destruct signal...He was a good man. Kind and respectful, but serious when he needed to...I miss him so much..."

Crow listened carefully, perfect beings, it sounded like just what they said, he was to be the perfect warrior. Then she came to the part of one of her former friends, Crow's eyes widened. Of course, he now understood it. It had confused him as to why he was placed in such a weak containment cell, made of simple steel and alloys, guarded by regular humans and their limited weapons. They knew all along that he could escape, but they would always have this over his head. Crow walked past Jackie and away from the group silently, eyes staring into the sand, he put distance between himself and the others for now he was a liability.

"oh well, do you know where you can get these machines? hehe, i figured getting all the ingredients might take some time anyway..." Kioko said taking a glance at crow..
whaddup wit him? She thought...

Strobe made it quite obvious what he was to do, so Crow took hold of the stick. He wasn't sure what to display though, he thought for a few minutes, staring at the sand silently. Then he found the idea he was looking for, using the stick he drew a symbol in the sand, a large emblem, it took him several minutes and was very rough. When he'd finished, it was clear that he'd drawn the same symbol that had been on the helicopter they'd seen earlier.

Crow knew that simply drawing it would not explain to them it's significance to the situation. He turned his back to them and walked a few steps away, as he did he began to unzip and remove his biker's jacket. He tossed it on the ground, the jacket had covered a large muscular body frame. Next he stretched his arms across his torso and grabbed the bottom of his black T-shirt and lifted it to expose his back. Upon it was the symbol that had been appearing so often, as a black tattoo-like design that covered almost half of his back.

"the perfect experiment..." Kioko said taking in every word she just uttered into her head...
"he must've come close to completing, just like Onii-chan..."
Kioko looked over her back and noticed that the chopper was much closer yet the signal was still distorted..
"we still have a bit of time...we need to find some way to get that sign off him..without harming Crow.." Kioko said worriedly..

Crow lowered his shirt and threw his jacket back on. He then picked up the stick he had used to write in the sand with, stared at it for a moment, then dropped it. He instead took a nearby rock and began carving pictures into the rock face nearby, when he'd finished the drawing was slightly crude, but clear nonetheless. One picture was a cross with a sickle coming from the bottom representing death, below it were chains representing slavery, Crow stared at it for only a moment, he already knew his choice. In the blink of an eye he drew his fist back then slammed it into the rock face, smashing the rock inscribed with chains away from the rest. The impact caused a bit of rubble to fall from the top as well. With that he looked back at the group, and waved for them to move along, the helicopter was getting close.
