When Jade returned to her body, she gasped as feeling came back. "I-I saw him...!" she gasped out, "He's down there in a big chamber with tech equipment, alright, but in some sort of suspended animation."
"What's that?" asked Krill.
"Some kinda induced hybernation," answered Lee.
~~~~~
Maven was focused on following EJ to the cave with nobody in it. From the first cave, she had sensed several life signatures in there, but had passed it by. She peered into the entrance of the cave that EJ had dissappeared into and rolled slowly in, turning on her headlights.
"EJ?" she called, but kept her voice down so that she wouldn't startle him, "Are you in here?"

The bright light made him jump, backing up further behind the wall. He vaguely recognized the voice as he tried to blink away the moisture in his eyes, but couldn't place a name or car with it. He kept quiet, hoping that if he just stayed still she would go away...

Adrian knew immetiately of whom Jade was talking about, but she wanted the combine not to be clueless, and therefor something that could get them all.
"The long version is kind of long, complicated and icky." She said to the combine. "The short version is we are looking for a missing person, we got confirmation he is in here, and there are two black SUVs somewhere in the caves that doesn't want us to find the missing person." She said quickly.

"And we must come up with some way to rescue this missing person," added Jade, taking a couple of deep breaths as she got used to being back in her body again.
Krill's nose was working, catching the same two scents that he had earlier. It was the two SUVs and they were still somewhere in here.
~~~~~
"EJ?" Maven dimmed her lights as she made her way further into the cave, "Is everything okay? Are you hurt?"
She was becoming worried and she sounded like it.

-BC thought a moment on that.- Well, if y'need any help... I got nowhere to be. -BC couldn't exactly fit everywhere, but if there was two things he was good at, they were blocking entrances, and being imposing.-

"G-go away," he called, sounding as morose as he felt. "Before I hurt you t-t-too..."

((And now I am picturing EJ and Maven to stumble into either the SUVs or the lab )) Adrian did a 'shush' gesture as she saw Krill tense up. As far as she knew, he had the most heightened senses of the lot.

-BC shut up right then and there, turning off his high beams. BC's senses weren't the greatest, so Krill definitely won that contest.-

(((((OOC: That could happen... the lap sounds interesting... but have to wait for Insane for the encounter with the SUVs...)))))
"They're still here," Krill said in a low voice that sounded almost like a feral growl, "I can sense them."
"Ah bet they're blockin' th' way ta that lab," rumbled General Lee. He turned to Jade, "Is thar any way ta git past 'em?"
"I'm thinking," replied Jade.
~~~~~
Maven felt saddened. She closed her eyes, tears rolling done her sides. "I'm not going away, EJ," she said, "I want to help you. I want to see what is wrong. Please?" She slowed down, but didn't completely stop.

Well, uhm... -BC spoke quietly.- Y'know, I don't usually, uh... y'know, offer... but aheh... I could, y'know... get them out of the way. -He sounded kind of nervous. It wasn't in his nature to get violent, but these cars needed help.-

Grit shifted beneath his tires as he backed up a bit more. His voice became a little more hysterical. "I d-d-don't want to hurt you... Please- I'm d-d-d-dangerous!..."

"Of course, that would help," nodded Jade.
"Like a distraction," said Krill.
Lee nodded, "Yeah."
~~~~~
"I don't think you can hurt me, EJ," replied Maven, almost pleading, "And I don't think you're dangerous. I don't want to see you so upset... that it makes me upset... Please let me come closer."

I'm in. -BC sucked up his nervousness, and his voice went steady. BC was the strange type in that he was timid, gentle, and kind until somebody innocent was in trouble... then it was obvious that Frank was his cousin.-

His thoughts were jumbled- every bolt in his body wanted to rush forward and sob into the girl's side, but his mind still believed he was a threat to all. His mother and Rafey would be worried sick about him when they found out. If only his father was here- surely he would have known what to do...
His words were just as intelligible as his breathing picked up. "You don't... my father... what I am... she almost died!..."

"Good," responded Jade, who was in thinking mode at the time, "Now we should come up with a well-thought-out plan."
~~~~~
Maven bit her lip before she replied. "Your mother almost died if it wasn't for my mother. She saved your mother's life basically. And she also knew your father. I know through her."
