Stranded (Open)

[Reverie]

”What kind of foul trick is this?!” a lone insectoid off-worlder shouted at her crashed space pod. This was none other than Iaht Joahhe Eliy, and to say that she was pissed off would be the understatement of the year. She stood in a large crater in the middle of an empty field, glaring daggers at the crashed chunk of metal that had transported her here.

She remembered clearly what had happened back on the ship. The malfunction, keeping everyone calm, and making sure they all evacuated before the trade vessel blew up and took all of them with it. Was everyone else okay? She didn’t see any other escape pods around, so it looked like she was the only one that ended up here. Hopefully they made it safely back to Eniyunirid, informed their glorious queen, and a rescue team would be sent to retrieve her. Eliy’s face lit up with hope for a fraction of a second before a startling realization dawned on her. How the hell would they know where she was, or even that she was alive?! She was the last one on the ship…

”Aaaaaaaaaaaaugh!” she shrieked, not sure how else to react to her little epiphany. Frustrated beyond belief, she gave the downed pod another kick, putting a large dent on its already roughed up surface. She was supposed to be on Eniyunirid with the others! Instead, she was here in this backwater field on this backwater planet! What was this planet exactly? Eliy had no clue. All she knew and cared about was that it wasn’t her planet.

Eliy was trying to calm down. She really was. It simply wasn’t going well. There was absolutely nothing to be positive about in this situation. She didn’t even know what the inhabitants of this unknown planet were like? How would they react to an off-worlder? Would they be hostile? Maybe there was a small glimmer of hope that the inhabitants here would be technologically advanced enough to locate and perhaps transport her back home though. Eliy wasn’t holding her breath on that one though.

She had no idea how long she had been standing in that crater, doing nothing but seething about how much things sucked right now. Eventually, she gave a grumpy sigh. The young nelpos scanned the field with her eyes that looked like nothing more than a pair of bright red sclera. If there really was a way to get off this unknown planet, there was no progress to be made here. Using her ki to propel her, she ascended straight up into the air so she could get a better look at her surroundings.

The pond was a place Chichi went often to ease her mind when problems arose. The recent week had been a dreaded nightmare for her both physically and mentally. Normally, Chichi was not the one to show fear of anything. Her fear was not for herself, but for what awaited her family. Every place she went the past week she had kept her senses high.

Once she reached the pond, she sat herself on the thick grass. She had grown accustomed to how the forest was because she had lived there for so long. They were the only residents within the forest. Being alone, did not bother her for her family had often left to fight off evil doers. Now it seemed like she was the one who was always leaving.

She was seated in an Indian style way. The problems she now encountered were not about her family. For the first time, they were about herself. Throughout the week, she had been attacked by random villains seeking to get revenge on her family. For reasons unknown, she had become the sought out target. The fact that she had become an instant target was worrisome. Her family always came first. She would do anything to make sure they were safe even if it meant leaving somewhere secluded.

Seclusion was the last option because she was now a full fledged warrior. The recent months had been intriguing because she had continued her training as a fighter to become the best she could be. Ki manipulation had become easier for her too. It was almost like second nature. Whatever was thrown her way, she knew she would be able to handle it. After all, she was not the one to go down without a fight.

Like her usual self, she shifted from her heavy, worried thoughts to one of a more relaxed state. She could change moods in an instant without noticing it. This was just that occasion. Her mind shifted to the deals she saw at the mall.

"So many clothes I could buy....I could show off to that brat Bulma...." Her eyes were now focused on the pond as she muttered to herself about her recent encounter with Bulma. Chichi was more of the conservative type when it came to dressing herself, but ever since Bulma had teased Chichi, Chichi wanted to get back at her. The last time she had spoken to Bulma was a painful experience. Bulma had both saved Chichi's life and insulted her . Only Bulma could do such a thing. For now, she had not noticed that anyone was in the area. Her main focuses were on getting her revenge on Bulma, and the new clothes she had seen at the mall.

[Reverie]

Hanging high enough to get a decent look at the surroundings, Eliy raised an eyebrow as she spotted something in the distance. There was a lone figure sitting by a pond a little ways off from her. From what she could tell, the figure had the same basic shape as her, but they still looked drastically different in appearance. So that was what the natives looked like, eh?

Eliy crossed her arms in front of her chest as she thought about how to approach this situation. Nothing about that one’s appearance screamed ‘neanderthal’ to her, but she still had no idea how advanced they were. This planet had been completely unexplored by the nelpos, meaning she was completely in the dark.

The young soldier took a deep breath, trying to calm down. This was going to be her race’s first contact with this species. Being pissed off wasn’t going to win her any points, no matter how crappy of a predicament she was caught up in. In all probability, it would just serve to make things worse. Who knows? Maybe when this fiasco was all said and done, her people would have another planet to trade with. The nelpos were always looking to better their relations with other potential trade partners.

”Well, here goes nothing…” Eliy grumbled to herself, still not quite able to shake her sour mood. She hovered over to the being by the pond, trying to make her posture look as unthreatening as possible. Her wings were folded neatly behind her. She even held her extra set of insectoid limbs limp at her sides instead of ready to defend herself, like it was so common for nelpos soldiers to do. ”You there! I beg your pardon, but I require assistance,” she announced as soon as she was floating close enough.

Thoughts immediately shifted back to how advanced whatever civilization this being was part of. It was possible that this creature would be frightened of Eliy no matter how unthreatening she made herself look. Still, hopefully this one would remain civil enough not to attack her immediately. She had recalled a few nelpos explorers speaking of similar incidents when exploring new worlds. ”Could you possibly tell me what planet I just so happened to land on?”

[princesschichi]

Thoughts of how she could get revenge on Bulma and the deals at the mall betrayed her senses. This was careless on her part because considering she was worried about being attacked once again, it was dumb for her to take down her defenses. Being so concerned with herself, she had not noticed that someone was nearby her.

A voice broke the silence and Chichi's train of throughts. She gasped with shock and immediately bounced onto her feet to see who had called to her. She muttered to herself for letting her guard down. For a moment, she thought it may be Torn or other unwanting guests until she noticed it was none of those. Instead, it was a bug/butterfly looking woman.

Chichi glanced at the woman with curiousity. The costume or appearance the woman had was beautiful, yet strange. The nervousness Chichi felt before from being snuck on had disappeared. In every day life, Chichi always stayed alert because of her martial arts training, but she sensed no danger from the woman in front of her. Her black, orbed eyes continued to glance up and down at the figure to determine if she was indeed real. This had to be a mistake or at least a funny prank especially when the woman had asked her what planet she was on. Being naive to most things that happend on Earth, Chichi had to comment about what she assumed was a costume.

Chichi's facial expression went from being curious to revealing a playful smirk.

"You know you're a little too old to be dressed up for halloween right?" This question by Chichi was a test, but at the same time Chichi did not suspect that the woman in front of her was from another planet despite the woman's question. Sure she had met Piccolo and Goku, who were aliens, but she was still new to the fact that there were other creatures who existed in the universe.

[Reverie]

A look of utter confusion washed over Eliy’s face. ”Wh-what?” was the only reply she could manage. She was clearly taken aback by the strange being’s reply. It wasn’t from the shock that this being and herself could understand each other. It was because the given response was nothing like anything she had been expecting. It simply didn’t sound right.

Not only hadn’t this being answered the off-worlder’s question, there was something about it that she just didn’t like. The posture, the facial expression, and the voice… Her instincts were all telling her that this one was trying to issue her some kind of challenge. Back on Eniyunirid, if one soldier gave this attitude to another, they were challenging them to a fight to prove who the better fighter was. It was extremely tempting to follow these instincts.

No! Eliy wasn’t looking for a fight. She had far bigger problems than the need to assert herself. With a deep breath, she composed herself as best she could. She would have to remain calm if she wanted to get anything done. ”I… I believe we’re having some sort of miscommunication. What is this ‘Halloween’? Is that what this planet is called? If so, I think our methods of communication may not be very compatible, ” she tried to explain. By this creature’s speech pattern, it didn’t sound like that was the info she was looking for.

[princesschichi]

Chichi's smirk disappeared when she listened to the woman who did not understand what she had meant about Halloween. Who didn't know about Halloween? Once again, the woman tried to speak calmly to Chichi. The confused Chichi stared at the woman wondering why she did not know about Halloween. It was the moment that the woman said not compatible that caused Chichi to become more cautious with the situation. It was random that Chichi had grown suspicious about that rather then the question about what planet they were on.

{Why always me?} Chichi thought to herself in desperation. Had another crazy being come to destroy her and the planet as they always did. Despite her concern, she stood firm because she did not want to show any weakness to the woman before her. Rather, she took the not compatible comment as an insult. Chichi's stubborness kicked in.

"I don't know where you came from, but my name is Chichi. This is Earth ." Usually, she'd bow in respect after saying her name. She didn't bother mentioning what Halloween was. Her not bowing was for the fact that she did not trust the being in front of her.

The woman looked friendly, but looks were usually deceiving.

"Why did you come here? Have you come to start trouble? If you have, you've come to the wrong place." She said firmly. This was a warning and a test to make sure the woman was not after her family or herself.

[Reverie]

Her brow furrowed ever so slightly as she observed the creature’s behavior. There was that same attitude again. What was this one’s problem? Was the nelpos’s appearance that unsettling? Was Eliy just reading it wrong? It didn’t seem likely. She actually felt like she was being mocked, though that might have just been the strange cocktail of emotions stirring within her from being stranded out her. Whatever it was, Eliy didn’t like it one bit.

The out of place alien’s insectoid limbs twitched a little bit. This was a tad frustrating. Hopefully the natives here weren’t all like this. Still, at least this ‘Chichi’ had answered her question. ”Earth…” she repeated to herself quietly. It was as she thought; the planet’s name was unfamiliar. That was going to make things much more difficult for her.

Eliy tilted her head to the side, continuing to study Chichi as she floated above her. ”I am called Iaht Joahhe Eliy, and I hail from the planet Eniyunirid. It’s a bit of a mouthful, so simply calling me Eliy shall suffice unless you insist on being formal. I don’t know why you would, though. There’s simply no call for it,” she returned the introduction, arms crossed over her chest. The soldier’s tone had shifted ever so slightly. It wasn’t as soft, but still nowhere near hostile. Eliy knew she was better than that. ”Trouble? I’ll have you know I’ve been most polite. Why should I bother causing trouble on this ignoble planet when it is not even my choice to be here in the first place?”

[princesschichi]

"Eliy" Chichi repeated to herself in a whisper to make sure she captured the woman's name correctly. The name was uncommon for people on Earth. Then again there were strange names on Earth. However, it was clear to Chichi that the woman was not from Earth, but from a planet Chichi had never heard of.

Chichi had not traveled to space as her family had so these experiences were new to her. She had no idea how to handle them.

The once suspicious and tense Chichi, had relaxed again because of the tone that Eliy used to express herself. It was polite, yet sophisticated. Eliy's appearance was strange even by Earth's standards, but it was better then dealing with perverted pigs and dogs as governors. Chichi knew about being polite considering her father the Ox King was strict to her about manners.

Seeing that Eliy was polite, Chichi decided to reintroduce herself in the manner in which she was taught. Chichi was not the type to apologize so she discarded the idea.

"Allow me to reintroduce myself. My name is Chichi. I am the Ox King's daughter." She bowed her head this time out of respect to the woman while giving Eliy a little more information about who she was. Then it was time for her to address the issue of Eliy being stranded.

"I am starting to wonder if there is some kind of curse on this planet. It seems like this planet is the vacation destination for alien visitors." Chichi tried to make light of the situation as she normally did though her temper could get the best of her sometimes. Her facial expression was now relaxed, yet friendly.

"You probably wouldn't destroy the planet, but we've had green men, hairy apes, and people named after refrigerators try to take over, kill, or destroy. It's why I was so suspicious of you. The aliens that come here are never friendly or attractive..they always want something...." The something she referred to was the dragonballs, but she was unwilling to reveal that information to Eliy just yet.

Meanwhile, as Chichi was speaking, she kept her senses sharp because there was no telling what kind of day this would end up being. It was already turning to be a strange one with the appearance of Eliy.

[Reverie]

The hovering alien gave a slight, relieved sigh and even smiled a little bit. It would seem that Chichi had finally dropped the attitude she had been wearing just a moment go. That was more like it. Now she could focus on getting out of here without constantly having to beat back her instincts that were telling her to challenge this one to a duel. Sure, Eliy was still a little irritated. It was only slightly though; there was still a lot going on that kept her from calming down completely.

Eliy uncrossed her arms from in front of her chest and decided to land a few feet away from the earthling. Now that Chichi was acting nicer, she wasn’t quite as worried about keeping her distance. Besides, they would probably both feel better continuing their conversation at eye level as opposed to the nelpos looking down at the earthling.

The moment it was mentioned that lots of other races visited the planet, the soldier’s eyes lit up. If there were other off-worlders here, maybe one of them knew the nelpos! They had many a trade partner. If one such race was here, Eliy could request transport home in exchange for good when they returned to Eniyunirid! One thing about Chichi’s words bothered her though. What did she mean by ‘curse’?

The next sentence said it all. Oh, it was sarcasm. The other races were trying to invade, not vacationing. Eliy just didn’t pick up on it right away. Her expression drooped for a moment, and then went serious again. That was disappointing. Still, if this planet had constant visitors from other world, that meant that the people here probably had the technology to get her home. The hard part would be finding exactly where home was. She didn’t know the coordinates.

Her wings fluttered for a second before re-folding themselves and resting behind her. ”I see… It sounds most onerous. I suppose I can’t blame you. In all honesty, I would probably be suspicious of outsiders too if my planet or my queen were in constant peril,” Eliy remarked. She then paused, thinking back to Chichi’s reintroduction. She mentioned being the daughter of the ‘Ox King’. The nelpos had never had a king on Eniyunirid. They had always been strictly matriarchal. Still, they traded with planets who were ruled by kings, so they knew what one was. Was this being royalty then, or was it a system much like back home where everyone was a daughter or son of the queen? There was really only one way to find out.

”Returning to what you said before… Who is the Ox King? Is he the ruler of Earth?” she asked curiously. If this earthling was royalty, that might improve Eliy chances of getting off Earth immensely. She would have to be on her absolute best behavior though.

[princesschichi]

The manner in which Eliy floated was graceful. It would be no shocker to Chichi if Eliy was gifted with the ability to fight. Just the way Eliy presented herself was enough for Chichi's martial arts background to pick up on Eliy's natural abilities. Chichi could not help notice how elegant Eliy appeared, but having a stubborn and prideful personality she refused to give Eliy any compliments.

Even though Eliy was from another planet, Chichi was slightly surprised by Eliy's generosity. Creatures that came to Earth were looking for power and destruction. However, this was not Eliy's case for Eliy simply wanted to know where she was.

A gust of wind drifted through the trees. Chichi's senses were now at a low again. Their conversation continued on as Chichi listened to what Eliy had to say.

The strange, yet elegant woman who stood in front of Chichi was proving her case of not being hostile. Another thing that was brought to Chichi's attention was Eliy's attention to detail. The question about Chichi's father, the Ox King, caused her to chuckle. Yes, her father was a King. Her father was a rich, powerful, yet humble King that ruled over Fire Mountain.

Like Eliy, Chichi did not fully understand why her father was called the Ox "Demon" King. Her father was a large man, but other then the fact that he was a great martial artist, a feared king, and humble father Chichi knew nothing more about her father's history. Her father often neglected telling her about his past as well as her mother's past. For reasons unknown, Chichi never pushed the subject about his past perhaps because of the respect she had for her father.

Chichi kept chuckling after her momentary flashback. Her father was a King, but not the king of the whole Earth. Earth was way too big for that.

"Ha ha ha...you got half of it right. Ox King is my father. He is the King of one, large kingdom of Fire Mountain. He is not the King of the whole Earth though. I wish he was though." Chichi blushed momentarily because if her father was the King of the whole Earth, she could buy anything from the shopping mall that she wanted. Her father was rich who lived in a large castle. Chichi moved away from that lifestyle. He would often try to spoil her because of her being his only daughter, but Chichi would never stoop so low as to ask her father for money especially at her age.

Seeing that her mind was drifting again, she cleared her throat to get back to what she was talking about.

"I'm not sure how it is on your planet, but Earth is very big. There are many rulers of all sorts throughout the planet. Most are dumb or corrupt, but what can I do about it?" The way Chichi commented about the other of Earth's leaders was with attitude and sarcasm. Chichi shrugged at her comment. Her concern for the world's problems was minimal. As long as her family was safe, it is all that mattered to her.

The conversation became more about Chichi than Eliy. Chichi's mannered kicked into play.

"If you are not here for halloween, destruction, or vacation, why exactly did you happen to come to Earth. You told me about landing here so there must be a reason." Chichi's full attention was now on Eliy. At least, her eyes were starting at Eliy to reassure her that she was paying attention. Conversely, Chichi's mind drifted to the mall again.

{She probably came for the deals at the mall.} Chichi thought to herself with playfulness. Despite her humor and the wanting to laugh, Chichi remained completely serious and attentive to Eliy.

As for the fact that Chichi was not paying attention to the surroundings, that could cause a problem....

[Reverie]

The off-worlder watched Chichi intently, trying to soak up as much knowledge about the planet she currently stood on as she possibly could. Who knows what sort of details would be important for her to get back home? It’s not like Eliy was used to being stranded on foreign planets. As it turned out, Chichi wasn’t quite of the royal blood that she had originally thought. Not the planet ruling type anyway. The Earthling was still of noble birth though, which could still possibly come in handy.

”I see… We have a similar situation on my home world of Eniyunirid. There are many different territories, each ruled by a different queen. Personally, I serve Queen Iaht the Sincere,” Eliy stated, attempting to find common ground with this being. However, what Chichi said next completely through the insectoid off. She saw this planet’s leaders as dumb and corrupt?! Eliy had never heard of such disrespect for those in a leadership position. It was even worse coming from the offspring of one such leader. Back home there were severe consequences for such insubordinate words! Then again, almost all nelpos were fiercely loyal to their queens since they were all her offspring. Things were either far more relaxed on this planet, or the first native she had come in contact with was far more unruly than she thought.

Still looking a bit shaken, Eliy gritted her teeth and tried to focus on the change in subject. She didn’t agree with Chichi’s views on how to treat leaders, but in reality it was none of her business. The soldier had absolutely no interest in interfering with this planet’s politics unless her queen gave the order. All she wanted to do was get home.

”Well, as I stated before, arriving on this world was not something I wished for,” she explained. Eliy took a deep breath before continuing. It was still quite fresh in her mind. ”I was assigned to a simple trading mission to another planet. The ship I was on malfunctioned; everyone aboard had to be evacuated. I don’t know how, but my escape pod was somehow tampered with. Instead of touching down on my home world, I woke up here on Earth.”

Eliy then fell silent. Her arms once again restlessly crossed over her chest, her fingers drummed anxiously on her arm. Actually vocally going over what happened felt strange to her. It struck a foreign chord within her, as if she had been reading from ficticious novel rather than telling a story of what was actually happening to her. Had it not fully sunk in yet? Eliy shook her head furiously before opening her mouth to speak again. ”By the way, does this planet have the technology to locate or communicate with other worlds?”

[princesschichi]

Apparently, Chichi had struck Eliy’s nerve because she looked flabbergasted after the remark Chichi gave about leaders. {Oh she will love Earth.} Sarcasm was evident in her mind. The truth was that most of what Chichi said about leaders had been true. Though her father was a loving one, he had killed many people in order to protect the castle, the treasures inside, and herself. Eliy’s bewildered expression caused Chichi to continue be curious about Eliy’s situation. Whatever world Eliy was from, which she stated it to be Eniyunirid, it must have been completely peaceful. On earth, there was evil everywhere.

Most aliens were shocked by what they had come across with humans. Humans were either ridiculed, toyed with, or killed. Chichi did not have as much compassion for humans as did her family members. However, it did sting her somewhat that people thought all humans were alike. It was true that Chichi had a rebellious nature, but her heart had always been pure. Her intentions were always for the good even if her actions did not always present it the best.

No expression of surprise had sprung on Chichi’s face when Eliy had said she crash landed on Earth. It is how all aliens ended up being on Earth. For some reason, Earth had some kind of magnetic field that dragged creatures from all over the universe to be crash landed on the planet. The only person who could possibly know about this was Dr. Briefs, but Chichi had already suspected it with her sarcastic humor.

Eliy was in for a surprise of how hectic Earth could be. Telling by how formal Eliy was, Chichi knew that humans would soon become distasteful for her. In a way, Chichi found this interesting. How would Eliy confront the population?

Eliy’s question about the technology on the planet was hard for Chichi to answer. Chichi was intelligent, yet she rarely had anything that was considered technologically advanced. It was not something she could afford with her budget. Also, it is not like any technology would do her well in the middle of the forest. No one knew their house existed there anyway.

Chichi did not know everything there was about technology nor did she care. Curiousity got the better of her. The little knowledge she knew about space travel would surely be enough to give Eliy a glimmer of hope that she was not stuck on Earth forever. Humans weren’t the most technologically savvy, but they had progressed enough where space travel was possible. Dr. Briefs of Caspule Corp was a genuis in that area. Eliy was in for surprise.

Once Eliy was finished, Chichi decided to speak about Eliy’s problem.

“Well I am not exactly a scientist, but there is a man in the city who could help you. He helped my family travel into space many times." Her eyes rolled at the idea of her children being sent into space. It was the worst idea ever. After her eyes rolled, she once again had a sly look on her face.

“I’ll take you there if you want but….” Chichi scanned the area to see if anyone was listening. There was no one in sight which meant the coast was clear. Her face leaned closer to Eliy’s while having hand cupped by her mouth so only Eliy could hear. Chichi was determined to get some shopping in since they were likely heading to the city to meet Dr. Briefs. She dare not mention the sales because she had no idea if Eliy would know what those were.

“Psst..you need some different clothes because where we are going you’ll draw too much attention.” It was true there were many creatures on Earth who were odd in appearance, but Eliy’s elegant stature would draw all the creeps in. Chichi was certainly concerned for Eliy’s safety….however it couldn’t hurt to go shopping while keeping Eliy safe from the Earth’s wickedness.

“What do you say hmmm?” The high pitch hmmm was Chichi’s way of sounding convincing while not being too pushy. Chichi backed away from Eliy to give the Eliy some breathing and thinking room. If Eliy did agree, Chichi would be ready to take flight to the city where Dr. Briefs resided.

[Reverie]

A satisfied smile spread across Eliy’s pale face. This was excellent news! It was nice to know she was making some real progress. She had never been well versed in technology. She was born to be a warrior, not a scientist. Meeting someone who would know what they were talking about when it came to interplanetary travel would definitely be a huge help. They didn’t even really have to be able to get to Eniyunirid as long as they had some way of contacting the nelpos. Perhaps Eliy would even show this scientist her escape pod. It was a thought, but she wouldn’t worry about that until she met them face to face.

She then noticed Chichi move to lean in close, her hand cupped like she was trying to say something meant for Eliy’s ears and no one else’s. The insectoid didn’t back away, she just looked a bit confused. Why was this earthling acting so secretive all of a sudden? There was nobody else in the area. Nobody that Eliy could sense, anyway. Perhaps she had sensitive information that she had to be cautious with? Either way, she decided to just stand there and listen to the words Chichi was whispering to her.

”M-My attire?! What’s wrong with it?” Eliy snapped defensively while taking a few steps back. She was feeling rather offended at Chichi’s comment. ”I’ll have you know that this is the traditional outfit for a nelpos soldier!” She glanced down at her clothes, examining them for a second. Her attire consisted of something similar to a black corset bodysuit with gold trim, as well as a pair of matching gloves and boots. Who did this Earthling think she was to insist that she change her outfit?

Eliy paused her train of thought, reluctantly stealing a glance at the clothes Chichi was wearing. They were awfully different… Would it really matter that much if they wanted a low profile though? Clothing was one thing, but assuming all earthlings looked similar to Chichi, Eliy looked strange enough in comparison based solely on her natural looks. The most obvious features would be her antennae, wings, abdomen, and extra set of limbs growing out of her back. This wasn’t even counting the innumerable more subtle differences between the two.

”Would new clothes honestly make that much of a difference in how noticeable I am?” she asked, her voice somewhat sheepish and full of doubt. She stretched her wings and extra limbs in order to drive the point home. ”And is it that important that I keep a low profile in the first place?”

[princesschichi]

Eliy's reaction was unexpected at all from Chichi's perspective. She had a snappy attitude to her which Chichi was close to responding, but did not. She wanted to avoid confrontation for now. The slight annoyance in Eliy's voice caused the hard headed woman to take a step back. Rarely anyone could get Chichi to think twice about she had said. Whatever Chichi said...she meant it. All Chichi offered was some new clothing, which was usually accepted by anyone. It was not like she was asking Eliy to disguise herself as something else. Eliy's point did strike Chichi's hopes and dreams hard. There were strange creatures on Earth, but Eliy, along with attire, would stick out from everyone else.

Eliy truly tried to prove her point to Chichi by showing off her wings. It was true that there was no way of truly hiding Eliy's unique, but graceful appearance. Suddenly, Chichi frowned because her plan of going to the mall had been foiled. The mall was a place where Chichi could relieve stress because she had plenty with everything around her.

It was just like Chichi to change moods in an instant with little warning. Her frown disappeared and a smile had taken its place.

"Alright. Lets have it your way missy. I'll take you to Dr. Briefs, but be warned. You are in for some surprises." Chichi's feet began to float off the ground because she was ready to take flight to Capsule Corp. Oh Mrs. Briefs would be a treat for Chichi's happy mood. For once, she looked forward to going to Capsule Corp.

When Eliy was ready or if ready, they could take off to the city.

[Reverie]

Eliy groaned softly to herself, gingerly rubbing her temples. She was going to have to keep a better handle on her temper. Outbursts like that simply wouldn’t do, and would most likely hinder her in trying to get off of this planet. Just keep calm and expedite the process as much as possible. It shouldn’t be too terribly long before she was flying back home, and this whole story would be nothing more than a tale to laugh about with her fellow soldiers over a drink or two.

”Surprises you say? Well I suppose I wouldn’t want today to get boring or anything…” she commented, her voice oozing sarcasm. Was there really anything more surprising than expecting to wake up on your home world only to find you’re on a world you’ve never seen or heard of before? Probably, but at the moment Eliy didn’t feel like it was possible.

She lifted herself into the air before suddenly stopping herself. The alien looked over in the direction she had come from, her mind going back to the idea of showing this ‘Dr. Briefs’ her escape pod. The more Eliy thought about it, the more foolish it seemed to leave it behind. Perhaps the original coordinates of her home world were still floating around somewhere in its programming. Either way, It would most likely be crucial in locating Eniyunirid.

”Just a moment,” stated Eliy before she zipped away in the direction of the crash site. It only took a few seconds for her to return to Chichi, now carrying the large chunk of metal she had arrived here in on her back. ”If this scientist has access to nelpos technology, he may have a better chance at finding my home. Let us be off.” With that, Eliy began following Chichi. Her hopes were at an all-time high.
