He would be lying if he did not admit that it was a little curious to him if his abilities worked here but he was trying his best to focus on everything else. His, well one of his many flaws was how had it been like this, more specifically how and what had caused this to happen. In order to stop the questions from coming so fast at him as he thought he decided to just focus on Alice for a second since she seemed to be holding it all together. He did not..well he could not leave out the even slight possibility of time travel. "Very true," he said. Growing up with an uncle that was interested in science honestly had did him absolutely no favors. "Okay," he said now having gathered himself a bit more. He took the flashlight and spoke once more. "Alice I need you to promise me that no matter what happens you tell absolutely no one about this." Alice Seraphim

"I doubt anybody would believe me anyway. I promise that on my parents life wherever they got to" Alice replied. She didn't even know her original surname or if Alice was her real name or not. Then added "so far the rescue has happened as we hoped it would; just earlier and without our normal gear. So if we just let things happen as we'd expect we might be fine eventually. Could what have happened also screwed up the chopper?" She posed that question in case other birds would have problems getting here. She let that question marinade with Ace now they were on their way again. The sarge and his people would be fine from here on. All this seemed to lead back to the crashed chopper tail that was floating above the sand. "That floating tail plane still bothers me. It's the only thing that looks out of place" she added. She knew her flight ability should still work in this weird situation; she just hadn't needed it yet. She was also in a potentially tricky situation as she was out of of contact with her people. She hoped Ace would get her back to them as she knew just what being a lab specimen was like first hand. Ace Nottingham

He knew that at times his mind was too curious as he took a second and let out a sigh. "I am sorry if I seem a little out of place," he said as he still looked around and he knew the irony in all that he had just said considering the events that had just taken place. "I just get really freaked out when weird things start happening and well as you know we work for two completely different organizations." He felt his people were harder but he did not know the ins and outs of her job."Alright," he said once he took a final breath in. "I am not going to mess with anything but I will do my best to make sure that they get the help that they need." Was this like messing with time travel? He hoped the hell not. He turned his attention the tail of the plane. "We need to get a closer view of it. Okay I say we get close and see which direction it is different in and maybe we can help turn it into the way it was as we know from the meeting?" Alice Seraphim

Alice also had a curious mind but also knew when to believe what was happening round her. Which was why she was able to handle the weirdness without looking freaked out. "Ace I don't blame you but you have to believe what you see and find. That's your evidence. I'm also an investigator which would translate to a police detective anywhere else in the world. It's true we work for different people but I don't see it as two sides of the coin. We're doing what we believe in rather than it being the way it was in the last cold war" she mused. A plan was mooted and now she'd her input to it. Alice knew her people wouldn't sacrifice her or purposely leave her but it still a results business; also with a level of paranoia as the Security Services had been on a defence force footing since they'd been formed. It wouldn't take much to start something off and so far this hadn't started anything that could be a problem. At least Alice could report why the chopper crashed even if she kept the rest quiet. She could also tell her boss there was no fatalities which would certainly smooth things over. "We did leave the passengers and crew in a safe place. The only problem is the bad leg wound but they can deal with it. So now we can think about other things. Your plan sounds good but let me try something first". Alice sounded calm as picked up some pebbles of the beach and flew at a low level to where the helicopter tail was. She had enough firelight to work with as she threw a flat pebble at it from range and observing what happened first. She wondered if they could even approach it without getting into more trouble. If something strange happened to the stone it might happen to them if they got too close. Ace Nottingham

Women, ugh. None the less he kept that thought to himself as he watched her. With all of those other bodies..er..people out of the way they could possibly explore and that had him giddy but he was sometimes smart enough to know that he could not get in trouble. He watched the pebbles and squinted his eyes. He knew all too well that sometimes what appeared did not necessarily, or was not necessarily what it seemed. He took a seat beside Alice and took his shirt off. Calm down you perverts it ain't like that, sheesh as the periodic table that inked his back in tattoo form was now seen. "Once you're done with that pebble test, do me a favor and tap the number twenty four on my back." Hell if they were going to test it , might as well go all out. Alice Seraphim

Alice carefully observed her test and came to a quick conclusion. One she told Ace about as he arrived beside her and took of his shirt. It wasn't the first time she'd seen a man who was shirtless. Those top gun type volleyball games in the Florida base could be played all year round after all. So this didn't rattle her in the slightest. She'd also a boyfriend so what was the problem? "Nothing unusual is happening with the pebbles" she said looking unfazed and then heard what he had to suggest. Why not? perhaps they needed something bigger than a beach pebble to affect this. So she did just that locating 24 on his back. Then touched it before she made room for him to try what he had in mind. This was a like a combination of a science experiment and a puzzle. So nothing to fear. Ace Nottingham

When Ace had first got his ability he did not know exactly how to use it and the truth was that he did not find very many uses for it either and that was still in a bit of test and trial error but at least he was doing well enough now that he could touch it. Up until this moment he had not let anyone touch him except for Cae because, well it was complicated but he honestly did not like touch that much but he had to help them out of this because he knew very well that him and Alice did not need to stay here any longer than they had to. As he felt the touch he felt the feel of the element slightly run through his body, and since it mostly through his system like blood circulation it did not hurt but as he sat and imagined silverware, the kind good for eating and opened his hand and watched the butter knife and fork, form it did hurt him a little bit as he now held the items in his hand. "Thanks," he said as he still stood still. His back ran a little warmer than usual as it always tended to slightly 'heat' up after the use of the elements on his back. He lifted his hand up and spoke to Alice. "Throw these and let's see what happens." Alice Seraphim she can decide what happens, if it blows up, throws it back, etc, have fun

Alice could recognise what Ace had produced as silver tableware. Stones hadn't affected it in the slightest so Ace tried something else. She found it quite amazing what he did but kept these thoughts to herself as there was still a job to do. There truely seemed to be no end to the possibilities of oddity abilities. She started with the knife and threw at the area of the tail plane and she ducked by reflex when it bounced back and away from them. However something did happen. A red ripple effect round the area was observed and she repeated it with the fork to check her findings; and got the same result. Something they'd both see but what did that mean for them. She figured once time caught up they'd likely be able to leave this place but what if was some chance that they couldn't? What they were figuring out might be their exit point. Ace Nottingham

Ace was a lot more patient than that which he was willing to admit because he knew at the end of the day he had gotten that from his father but he still watched. He did not expect the red ripple as he looked at Alice. "Not going to lie I didn't expect anything."Either way they had an issue and for once he did not know if it was good or bad he simply only knew that it existed. "I say we stay as far away from it as we can and walk around the edges. Let's see if there is a way out, how does that sound?" Alice Seraphim

"We still found something" Alice mused looking back at Ace. "That red ripple is part of the answer no matter how weird things get". She figured the plan was a good one but she could get out of trouble quickly if she found any. "Your idea sounds good to me but let me go first as I can fly out quickly if I find something unexpected or dangerous. I can also test if there is a bubble effect" she suggested. She was also agile and quick on her feet. She'd noticed stones didn't activate the ripple but the silver did show it. "What if this is activated by a persons presence?" she also suggested having processed her observations. It just might take a risk to find an answer. Ace Nottingham

He wished that he could say that he felt like analyzing a situation like this would help but he did not. He was still stuck on the how it had happened and now even how they were supposed to get out but he knew mostly better than to panic. Even growing up as a kid a state of panic never seemed to do much good and he did not want to set them back at all. He was honestly glad that for the most part Alice seemed as interested in the what in the hell was going on and checking out the surroundings as well. "That's true we did," he said. He sounded as sure about the statement as he did anything else. "Okay you might have something there so would the person be us since technically we are not supposed to be here or someone that was already supposed to be?" Alice Seraphim

First Alice located the fallen silver knife. That would let her test a theory out but she also had something to say in return. "I don't think anybody can truely understand time travel which has happened to us; that's a fact but whatever path we take now is what will happen at the end of this. I don't even want to think about alternate realities right now. Maybe the big brains in ARI and OSE can figure it out". It was beyond her but she would do what she could. So she took off heading into the sky and not wanting to be round here any longer than she needed to be. So far things had gone well but it would only take one person who hated oddities to kill her and it wouldn't matter to them what they'd done on the beach already. Just being an oddity would be enough reason for them. It was just the way is was for the past 30 years. Descending slowly over the tail plane she stretched out with her left arm, knife in hand. She did find the top of the bubble as the knife took on the red ripple. That was ten feet of the ground so how far did it go round? "This is a start Ace. Where I am is where it stops in three dimensions. Now lets try and figure out area round it" she added but her flight control slipped just slightly. Her arm went in half way into the force field along with the knife... Ace Nottingham (you can tell me if she passes through completely or some other event happens).

His mind had calmed down a good bit and he was thankful for that because he felt as if it raced anymore he would never be able to think straight and something like this was huge but he did not want it blown out of proportion and cost them a chance at getting back home because deep down he did know that he wanted to get back home. Still would it help if they talked about it, he did not know. He listened to her instructions and then he was holding his breath a little bit as he did not know if she would go through or not or get thrown back, but he was pleasantly surprised when it happened and she went through without a problem. "It seems to be working," he said. He held his own breath trying not to think about consequences otherwise. "Okay so it seems like it's a barrier but it's not limited to us not getting through." Still, how did it get here. "Okay come back down by me please. We probably need to go through it together and see what happens." Alice Seraphim

Alice had gone a bit further than she intended too and it was accidental. It did however help put the pieces together and figure out a way out. Ace asked her to come to his side so she ascended again and neatly landed to the right of him. As usual the beating of her wings kicked up loose matter; in this case sand. "Ready when you are Ace" she replied looking back at him. What he said made sense and it took the both of them to figure this out. Perhaps a slim hope for the future given who they worked for. Now there was at least one OSE person she could respect. Ace Nottingham

Ace would work with whomever he needed to in order to explore something like this and that was good. Still he knew that he needed to be careful and he knew that they needed to be careful as a team and that was okay too. "Alright, I will count to three and then we can go but I would like for us to have a warning so here we go, One, two," he extended his hand and nodded to her. "Take my hand and let's do the three together and then just go forward as far as we can." Alice Seraphim
