Nova: I always wonder about how "civilized" places might be with more technology. Guns don't seem to have been much good in civilizing places like this...about as wild as anywhere, if not more so.

Nova looked at the remains of the robot.

Nova: She really did a number on that thing.

Kurima: She sure did. Should've seen how ecstatic she was when she did it.

Kurima pushed off all the hay off of Gato, revealing its body. It was saying ontop of a wagon, which would've made it easy to move Gato out.

Kurima: From what I remember about Gato, I'd call it more of a robot than a reploid. Unless the ancient texts didn't intend to make the two sound different. Well, better pull this out.

Nova: You know, if you want, I could help out with that later. I actually have some pretty good mechanical experience. Might be able to make a few...upgrades...to the bot.

Nova reached into his jacket and pulled out a wrench. He turned to Kurima and smiled.

Nova: I'd be happy to help...and you might need a bit more assistance on the defense front in the future, too.

Glenn's face went semi-red, as it tended to when someone showed a greater knowledge of things than he had... Which strangely enough was almost always Kurima.

Glenn: Yeah, they weren't very clear on the difference... Though I did gather that there was one.

JD said nothing about the robot. As with most technologically advanced things he had come across it seemed somehow... simplistic to him.

Kurima: Thank you for your help but..

Kurima's eyes were now hidden behind her shining glasses. She eventually looked at Gato, with a slightly redder face.

Kurima: I've.. actually grown very fond of working on Gato. The work I've done has been a bit sloppy.. and I haven't even let Glenn help me.

Kurima's tone of voice calmed down.

Kurima: Besides, I would prefer if you guys would get rest instead of helping me fine tune him.

Kurima made a mental note to thank Nalon as the ranch owner stepped inside the barn.

Nalon: Hey, ya'll! Dinner's ready! I may not be as good a cook as Hikari, but I still think the stew's mighty tasty.

Nova: That's true...but just don't forget the offer. I'd love to swap notes with you once we've found the stuff for Hikari.

Nova looked up as Nalon walked in.

Nova: Oh boy...I haven't had a proper home cooked meal in a while. I'm sure it'll be better than what I've been eating, if nothing else.

Nalon: Well, come on out here. I brought the pot out nto a stump outside. Bowls're close to it.

Nalon walked back outside.

Kurima then looked at Nova.


Kurima: Oh, go on ahead and eat. I only need Glenn to help me take Gato out, alright?

Nova: Alright, but I want to hear ALL about this robot later, got it?

With that, Nova walked outside. He smiled as he saw the pot of stew with the bowls and other people around it. This was definitely a very "cozy" atmosphere...he could get used to it...if he were ever allowed to, anyway.

Kurima stepped very close to Glenn, and spoke with a very low voice.

Kurima: Er.. Sorry for getting so close.. Glenn, I need you to keep a close eye on this guy. He's reminding me a bit of John, but I feel a bit more apprehensive about this guy.

Kurima turned around and stepped up to the wagon Gato was on.

Nova walked over to the pot and filled up a bowl, then sat up against the fence to eat. The stuff wasn't the best he'd ever had, but certainly the best he'd had in a little while. He looked at Nalon.

Nova: So...how much of this is there? I don't want to impose, but if you made plenty, it might be better for Sabor to have some of this rather than have to go hunting later. Not sure how healthy some of the critters around these parts are.

Nalon: Marin told me 'bout your kitty. I already threw somethin' together over there, but I don't know if he'll be much of a fan for somethin' as stringy as condors.

JD, too had grabbed a bowl and was now eating at it greedily. He hadn't seemed too hungry before, but now that he had food infront of him, he seemed to have changed his mind.

Nalon: Better eat up. I don't want to be hearin' that you weren't pullin' your weight around. Alright?

-------------------------

Kurima stopped pulling the wagon for a moment. She let out a sigh.

Kurima: Now don't get any funny ideas..

Kurima quickly embraced Glenn.

Kurima: This is just for good luck. I'm not going to forgive you if Hikari doesn't make it because you died before getting the ingredients.

Kurima released Glenn and went back to pulling the wagon.

Glenn, however, just stood there for a moment, without moving at all, his eyes wide and a bit of blood slowly leaking from his nose.

Kurima turned her head, wondering why she wasn't getting any help. She looked at Glenn for a moment and then turned away, slightly blushing.

Kurima: Get your head out of the gutter, and help me with this, Glenn

((FAST FORWARD!!))

The was barely poking out of the horizon when a tiny, blue cucco was giving it its all in announcing the new day.

Cojiro: Cuc-COOOOOOOO!

Nalon had caved in, allowing Nova, Sabor, and JD to sleep at the ranch. However, they would have to sleep with the cows in the barn. Marin was already running around, chasing after the cuccos.

Nalon: She doesn't even look like she's a bit worried 'bout her sister.

Kurima: She has a lot more faith in those guys than we do.

Nalon, holding onto a bucket of water, walked by Kurima, who was already tinkering with Gato.

Nalon: Sounds to me like you're a bit happy 'bout poor Hikari getting sick.

Kurima: What? How could you say something like that?

Nalon: You seem like a little kid chasin' 'round a buncha cuccos.

Kurima's eyes were now hidden behind shining glasses again.

Nalon: I'm gonna bring this upstairs. Tell them that they'll have to eat at the train.

Kurima: I know.

Nova got up to the overly loud Cucco, and stretched. It hadn't been the most comfortable bed, but it was alright. As he got up, Sabor rose behind him.

Nova: Even if the bedding wasn't great, you make a nice pillow, at least.

Sabor stretched as well, showing just how big he was, before walking outside. Nova followed, and the two walked over to Kurima.

Nova: I'm ready to go whenever the others are. No sense in delaying any longer.

Kurima: Well, that's good.

Kurima stood up, and walked around Gato, who was still inactive.

Kurima: One less person complaining about no breakfast.

Nalon stepped back outside, pushing what seemed to be an OT'd Johnnathan out the door.

Nalon: Gonna have to be draggin' this one along for a bit. He was mumblin' something 'bout writin' or something.. I'll have to go check for Glenn.

Glenn: Indeed.

A short distance away, Glenn was already up, dressed, and had packed whatever he felt like packing into a backpack of some sort which, along with his bo staff, was on his back.

Glenn: I'm used to being up this early, sometimes earlier.

----------

Back in the barn...

JD: *snore*
