When both moved to the rendevouz point, Elm landed the jet-bike and had the dome slide back, alowing Sam to get on. Becoming airborne and with the invissibility cloak still active, the duo began moving north-east, Sam informing Elm that if looking for one of the UN's offices, Geneva Switzerland would be a good place to start.
While still in the airspace of Cañon City, Elm alowed Sam to pilot again, to get him better acquinted with the jet-bike's controls and to help train his hand-eye coordination. The flight took place high above the city, to avoid the abvious hazzard of crashing into a building.
Once outside the city airspace, Elm took over and started the jet engine, going at full speed when flying over the North Atlantic Ocean, and turning it off once mainland Europe was reached, largely doing so in order to conserve fuel.
After a flight of roughly nine hours, Sam and Elm hovered over the countryside at a more leisurely pace. Eventually, Elm slowed down further, noting something unusual moving through the heathland on its sonar.

Chemin du Versoux, Brénod, France.

So this is what she meant by 'you'. She meant humans as a whole. I can't blame her if her world is filled with the worst kind of humans. At least that's what I'm getting from her.
"Sure, let's go to the café." She said without turning her head. "I'll lead the way." And she and her sisters did so.
Winona took a breath of fresh air through her nose as a rush of nostalgia took over her, her arms outstretched.
<color=green>"Good ol' Earth. I can never get tired of it. I could travel to the other side of the Galaxy, but I could never live anywhere else but on this planet."

"Uh...I don't really know. I'm not much of a tourist." Seras said. "I'd go for a swim, but I'd need a suit...and I would have wait until dark. Maybe I could go into town and get one now." she added.
[color=006d5b]"Well, there's a lot of space on Earth, so it's not really a waste. You should see how empty parts of Australia are."[/color] Matilda said to Vicky.
Elm's scanners would pick up a metal and carbon nanotube object, the size of a large wolf, speeding along the ground at a rate comparable to a motorbike.
"I haven't been to Earth often, and when I did go, it was always to the megacities. This is... Calming."

[color=003399]"Yeah, I'd need a suit, too. Why would you have to wait for dark, though? How badly does sunlight affect your kind of vampire?"[/color] Joel asked.
"I'm picking up an unusual shape moving on ground level. Shaped like a quadrupedal animal, but clearly mechanical in nature." Elm anounced, begining to lower the jet-bike. "Possibly an advanced patrol? I'm not sure, I can't make out more from just analysing the shape. That this place has patrols like this when others don't seems unlikely, but I want to know for sure. You have a look."
Sam, having been resting his forearms on his thighs and lazily looking straight ahead for the majority of the flight through France, didn't notice the unidentified object until Elm pointed it out. He hummed slightly to himself as he began to look around, his vision inimpeded by the jet-bike's invissibility cloak.
"It's to the east, moving northwards." Elm anounced, turning the jet-bike around and begining to move after the object.
With clearer directions, Sam soon noticed the object, looking to it more carefully.

"Well I prefer to avoid direct contact." Seras said. "Would you like to come into town with Faro and me? He should be able to get us around without too much trouble." she then asked Joel.
Before Sophia had left off with the others, she had gone to stuff her blankets and such back into the ship. Not entirely sure what to do given the short notice she simply buried the chocolate crystal in the sand so it wouldn't sit out in the sun.

"All these buildings, they look so different from the other ones we've seen so far." Sophia said aloud as they walked along the shops and stores. The initial locations having a wide variety of beach equipment and clothing. Things like floaties, towels, bathing suits, bikinis, umbrellas, there was a great deal many things. As the group walked further into the city towards the cafe that EMily was leading them to, the shops started to get less tourist heavy and more reasonable with practical everyday needs.

"Well good for you."

"Really? It's not like it's anything special. Back home we've found tons of planets just like this place."[color=003399]"Sure. I'll go get my arm."[/color] Joel said as he stood up and went back inside the ship.

[color=006d5b]"Is there not much free land where you're from?"[/color] Matilda asked Vicky.

[color=edc393]"...No way."[/color] Sam said to himself, in disbelief as he identified the object as Bladewolf. [color=edc393]"What are the chances."[/color]
"Do you recognise the device?" Elm questioned as it flew the jet-bike along.
[color=edc393]"I do. It's an AI I that worked alongside me on a few mission in the company I worked for."[/color] Sam explained, leaning closer to the glass. [color=edc393]"Never expected to see him again."[/color] He added, then paused. [color=edc393]"Hey. Can you take us down? I want to talk to him."[/color] He asked, his voice sounding somewhat energettic.
Elm calculated wherther diverting from its goal now to talk to Bladewolf would be more beneficial in the long term, coming to the conclusion that having the chance of any benefits come out of the encounter were slim, but that that the loss in time would have a minimal negative impact. Agreeing, Elm picked up speed, and began flying after Bladewolf, shutting down the jet-bike's cloaking field.
The jet-bike moved fast enough that catching up to Bladewolf was quickly done.

<color=green>"Maybe for where you come from, but not for our universe. Out of the 200 billion planets that occupy this Galaxy we call the Milky Way, only 10,000 are estimated to support life. Out of that, only 60 planets have life flourish nearly everywhere. And out of that only 5 planets are gifted with intelligence. One of them is this one."
"And those 60 planets we've cataloged in our journey across the Galaxy and back to Earth."
"And those 60 planets we've cataloged in our journey across the Galaxy and back to Earth."
Bladewolf skidded to a halt as he heard and saw the bike closing in, turning to face it. His tail hovered near the grip of his saw, ready to fight if need be.
"That's, a rather big number." Sophia bumbled out, having to take a moment to process how many planets that had to be. As they continued on Sophia lifted her face upwards and took in a deep breath through her nose, a smile slowly appearing on her face shortly after. "I'm hoping that cafe is whatever is around that corner, because it smell pretty nice." Sophia said as she pointed up the street, pointing in the direction EMily's cafe selection was.
