A little disoriented, it took Khris a moment to acknowledge Akane," Yeah, you could say that. Just need a little space to clear my head is all, away from the crowds." He glanced back to see if anyone else was following. " Tiger send you to babysit me so I stay out of trouble while she tends to the kids?" he smirked.

"No she did not." Akane looks confused at that but decides not to let it falter. "I am here because there seems to be no other reason for my being and considering all that is going on, everyone of use should not leave alone. And besides...that is probably not the best of places for me to feel comfortable in if you know what I mean."

" So you're a babysitter on your own accord." Khris smirked despite his discomfort. " I wouldn't know what comfortable in this place is. But I guess some company won't hurt. Come on then, I'll buy."

"You will buy what?" Akane responds confused by what he means by he will buy, but decides it is still better then wherever they are. "You know what? It does not matter, but lead the way!"

'even if i don't wanna be on base. i think its the safest place to be eating right now. come on. we'll get something and then sit out in the open so we can keep a better watch.
*Jeckle takes the initiative to get them something to eat, she leads the way, matching his pace so they keep up apperances. she really hopes that he destroyed the suit and that it didn't fall into the wrong hands . . . but she fears that it probably isn't the case. then recalls that it did hae a minor flaw and a certain 'harmless' isotope leaked and would leave a trail.
*she glances at Roan and makes a faint admission. ~i hope that our suit wasn't involved in his attempted death. it leaks *name* isotopes in the 12 parts per billion~

Your brother is starting to think he was betrayed by the people he was working with, Roan replies. Tiger agrees. She thinks its unlikely your brother would have been here by himself - especially since he didn't seem to have any weapons or armor with him when he was attacked.
There are all kinds of detection and monitoring equipment here. Some of the metas here can detect those kinds of things themselves. If a leaky suit is around, it will be found.

Khris shook his head," Weren't you listening inside? I said I was heading for the coffee shop on the edge of the base. Where did you think I was going?" He looked at Akane as they walked, curious about her answer.

"To be honest... no I was not listening. This is not exactly what I am designed for shall we say. But I digress, Coffee if you wish is a wonderful idea, so long as the place hs some tea instead." Akane responds, realizing how much she was not listening

Khris sighed a bit," Look, I'm a big boy, so if you don't want to go, just say so. Because if we're being honest, it feels like I'm either being used as a way to escape a bit, or you or someone else thinks I need to be watched." He scowled a bit," Am I right?"

Akane looks confused for a moment, "Do I think you could be watched...yes. We could all have someone watch the other in this time. If you are implying that I need to watch you for someother reason, well that I have no opinion or rhyme of reason too. However though is it possible I am using you as a way to escape a bit. Well yes that is a possibility." Akane finishes by answering truthfully.

'yeah . . never know Roan . . never know. it was one of hte few types that worked and would normally be overlooked. but Heck? lets get some of this . . . grub into us . . then i'm ready to crash. i've been awake since you first woke up. i don't know about you, but i'm getting wiped'
*she says nothing about the slight attracton she had felt for Lt Winters, but figures it won't go anywhere and she'll just be better off with her constructs after all. most wouldn't be able to look past hte scarring and the poor transplant patches

The next morning Tiger takes Kris and Akane aside. "My contact, the one who supposedly had informatiin about Hecklew is available. His information might be useless to us since we've found Heckle, but it might give us some clues as to what Heckle was doing here. Meet with him. He's an a veteran military guide. Call him Ghost. That was black ops position title, not his name, but he's probably using a new name these days. He'll wait for you at the airport bar."
Everyone else gets ready for another day of watching the trials. Lt. White brings everyone breakfast of bananas, oranges, honeydew melon, bagels with cream cheese, several kinds of juice and hot cinnamon bread. Tucked into one of the bags is also a box of the cereal Jeckle is always eating. Lt White has been quiet the last couple days, but he and Marv are talking in low tones this morning and the two of them wander over and make an effort to include Heckle, asking about his areas of expertise.

" We'll see to it, Tigger." Khris said, glad to be able to escape a bit. He took an opening to steal a kiss from Tiger and whispered," No offense to the kids, but I'll be glad when this is over". Smirking, he turned to Akane and said," Looks like it's you and me again. Let's go find a Ghost." He started to walk, looking for some wheels to get them to the aiirport.

Jeckle, upon opening the bag and seeing the box of ceral she uses when she's building to keep her bloodsugar up, glances into her brother's to double check then half turns and leans away to remove hers and stuff it into her pocket. it's clear that the cereal is a favorite for both, but her hoarding it, shows that the rivalry between them is still active . . . even over a box of cereal.
'so . . uhh . . . i'll just sit over there . . let you guys talk' *that said she stands up and moves over to another table and lets them do their thing. she listens to hte kids as they chatter and eat their meal. 'helps sometimes to focus on chewing. don't sweat what already happened. its done and been marked. accept, move on. you guys did good so far. i suspect that the tests will test your cohesion as a group. but you're all good on that too. so today should be a breeze. only thing i can think of to add for you three'
*resumes munching her fruit and is slowly chewing it. her mind is deep in thought about whether or not she got all the parts of hte tester right or if she could have made anything better . . . then shrugs and resumes eating normally. it too is in the past and the three of them trained with the testers, so it should be fine
*her eyes lift to study the guys at the other table. she wonders if her brother will overcome whatever it was that happened to him. getting shot and left for dead was bad enough, but . . . she looks at Roan ~would it be better to let out that they found a body on the base and an investigation is underway? or is it too late for that kinda subtefuge?~

Roan responds, Your brother will heal better if we don't attempt to trick him. Better to jog his memory with recollections about the past, little details, which might lead him to make a connection between his missing memories and today.
