Chellon sat and stared out over the vast open field before him, in one hand was a data pad with some scrolling information and in the other was a very large chunk of meat on a bone. The Android was going over things he had learned about the planet in the past couple of days, compiling and filing all of the information into his systems to get an idea of where he might be and how far the nearest city might be in conjunction to his current location. It was a little after dawn and the sky was clear, the weather was a pleasant 74 degrees, and Chellon had decided to taste the local fauna to see if it was good for daily consumption. The large feathered creature with the long neck had run pretty fast, but in the end was easily defeated with a simple shot from his gun.
Opening his helm a bit, Chellon once more brought the meat to the opening and feasted a bit on the meat, his mask shutting in a puff of dark mist as he tasted and studied the over-all quality of the meat. Whatever the avian creature was, it did produce some tasty lean meat, and it'd make good dried food substance to replace that which he had lost during the little incident on his trip down to the surface of the planet itself. Other scans of the area had shown a dense region of heavy forests and tall thick grasses, a stream with what would be considered able drinking water, and a settlement of decent size many leagues to the south of his position. Chellon looked over the data in the data pad a little more before turning the machine off and placing it back into his backpack.
Putting the hunk of partially eaten, still warm leg of ostrich meat onto a plate, Chellon pushed himself off his sitting platform and turned around to face the harsh reality once more. His poor ship, he sweet, sweet Mock Turtle, was in no condition to fly and would not be for a long time. Patting the side of the ship, Chellon walked around it and did his 50th check over the vessel after having spent more then a few hours properly closing any scratches, scrapes, slashes, and gashes in the ship that it received from the initial damage and the resulting crash. Luckily, the Mock Turtle itself was designed in a manner that it could still be used as a domicile when he was on a planet, and this time would be no different. It still had power and would be able to keep basic electrical functions while within the solar rays of a central star, and there was a couple places that he could rest within if he had so desired.
Opening the side hatch and entering into the vessel once again, Chellon looked around and recounted in his head the items he had lost before and during the crash. Far too many tools, food items, and some personal effects he was quite pleased with, including some pointless droids that kept him entertained, some gifts and trophies from worlds he had visited before, and even a few primitive data constructs like books or scrolls that he found curious. It was... disappointing to say the least, but at least he still had a place to call home and hopefully an ample supply of food and clean water to go with it. Well, it was good that the planet itself didn't seem to have any overly dangerous flora or fauna to deal with eithe....
Chellon's entire ship shook under the sudden weight an unseen object, and the Android looked straight up as if he could see the source of the disturbance through the hull of his vessel. Feeling his ship shake a couple more times before there was some semblance of silence again, Chellon quickly brought out his data pad and searched for any signs of tectonic plate activity. Nothing at all was recorded in his scans, and Chellon slowly looked over to the hatch he had closed just moments after he entered the Mock Turtle with a bit of curiosity and fear, for what could have shaken his entire ship like that? Standing up straight and trying to ignore the warning signs going off in his mind, the Android went to the hatch and opened it up and took a few steps outside. It looked clear at first, but after turning to the side and searching for the source of the disturbance, Chellon found himself face to face with a large reptilian creature.
It had short, stubby arms, a long, thick tail, and large set of jaws that was currently holding the rest of the avian creature from before. It stared at Chellon with a mixture of confusion and hunger, and Chellon stared back, his body stiff and his mind racing with several thoughts. Dropping the ostrich, the T-Rex rounded on Chellon and let out a mighty roar and Chellon's body acted before his mind did, and the Android shot straight up into the air and out of the creature's reach. It did seem very keen to try though, stomping around beneath Chellon and sometimes snapping at the air, as if it was close enough to reach him. Chellon fought to keep himself situated, to keep focused on the creature below him in a calm and rational manner that all professional Scavengers should have.
"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT THING!?" He shouted in the most 'calm and rational manner' ever, his voice easily carrying for a distance on the wind.

Heavy Weights Activated (PL: 5,498)
Azu's journey had led him to Spinach Wastes. An area inhabited by many different creatures, beasts and wild-life all with the great potential of being Azu's next meal. Within seconds of arriving at his destination Azu heard the distorted screams and cries coming from a mysterious man lurking above, an oddly looking man Azu had never seen in his entire lifetime. What was more fascinating though were the roars and snaps of a large and hungry beast, standing underneath the man. This beast scurried ferociously at the vehicle trying to find any way of locking it's jaws around it and making it his dinner. Azu took his time in strolling towards this beast. He had no interest in what was inside this vehicle and cared more for the fact that his dinner was distracted. Azu would make this T-Rex his feast and rightfully so, he hadn't eaten in at least a day as he tried to find something worthy of his first meal.
"Let's see how this goes."
Azu got himself close enough to the T-Rex and took firm position on the ground. Stretching his fingers outwards Azu began to charge a dark purple energy ball in the palm of his hands. With a smirk on his face and a large hunger in his belly Azu spun himself around using both force and velocity to build up a quick enough blast to send hurdling towards the T-Rex. Azu's objective wasn't to char the T-Rex alive but to pierce his ball of energy straight through it. Although large Azu could sense the T-Rex was weak enough to be pierced. After the T-Rex was to take the hit it was likely that it would attempt to run away, wasting it's last breathe on escaping. The T-Rex was bound to die Azu just knew it would be a hassle trying to locate it's remains as sensing whatever energy it had during it's lifetime was likely to deplete. After gaining enough momentum Azu let go of the blast and watched it charge towards the T-Rex. The blast would pierce the T-Rex from back to front, coring out it's insides. The T-Rex stopped hassling the man and paused, stumbling backwards trying not to trip over it's own tail. As the beast struggled to stand it began to pick up pace as it headed towards any sort of cover. In this case it would go towards a mountain surrounded by desolate trees. Azu grinned and headed towards the T-Rex. Azu wouldn't let it out of his sight, it was his dinner after all.
During this process Azu completely forgot that there was someone potentially watching this ordeal.

Chellon's mind was racing with thoughts on his current situation, with the reptilian creature below him, doing his best to reach him however it could. He just stared down at it and slowly relaxed a bit as he began to realize that it could not reach him as long as he stayed floating up, but that really wasn't something he'd like to do. As he tried to figure out the best plan of action for this situation, he noticed a strange thing heading in his direction and Chellon now turned his attention to the object. It took a moment to realize that the object in question was a person, and whats more they were starting to charge an energy attack of some sort, the glowing purple color of the ki was easily recognizable. Whats more is that the person in question then spun in place before launching the orb of energy at the monster below Chellon, and the Android watched in confusion as the energy cut straight through the reptilian monster with little issue.
It took a moment for what just happened to register for Chellon to realize what had just happened, and it seemed that the monster itself seemed to be a bit stunned as well. However, it seemed to know that something was wrong and decided to wonder off instead, obviously in a bit of pain and quite confused. Lowering down in the air a little bit as he watched the beast left the area, and he rubbed the back of his head feeling quite foolish that he reacted so extremely at the encounter. Shaking his head and looking for the man, figuring he could at the very least offer a thanks to the person who 'saved' him, Chellon noticed that the man seemed more interested in the reptile itself then Chellon's own safety. In fact, Chellon might go as far to say that the person seemed to forget entirely that the Android was here, or that the man just figured that he was fine and needed no help.
Floating along after the man with a bit of curiosity, Chellon pulled out his pistol and looked it over a bit, before holding it at his side on the off chance another one of the large beasts came out from nowhere. Keeping a wary eye out for any strange movement, Chellon kept up after the man, picking up speed and closing the distance between the two of them before he finally pulled about a foot or two behind him and several feet in the air above him. "So... what is that thing?" He asked, looking down at the bipedal being with a bit of interest. "I thought it was extremely dangerous, but you were able to pierce it's hide so easily, so perhaps I acted too rashly." He added, giving a bit of praise and acknowledging his own shortcomings.
It was probably the best way he could think to approach someone new and place them in a decent mood over-all, but one could never be too careful with living creatures. Who knows what they might do when they encounter a stranger, but as a Scavenger Chellon knew to keep himself at a decent distance and to be wary of any sudden movements.

"So... what is that thing?"
The distorted voice from earlier became much more clear, and closer, as a man popped up behind Azu. Azu had completely forgotten about this man and still barely acknowledged him, not even choosing to look at him or sense his presence. Azu had his dinner in mind, something the android may not understand. Not that Azu had known this man was an android of course. Before Azu could give any sort of response the man continued to speak.
"I thought it was extremely dangerous, but you were able to pierce it's hide so easily, so perhaps I acted too rashly."
Azu now took the time to respond. It seemed as though this man were completely clueless to the outside world. Azu was technically still new to this world but he still understood the essentials of it all. It confused Azu as to how this man didn't even take the time to understand the ground the walked on, unless he was new to it himself?
"That.. thing... is a T-Rex. It is also my dinner."
Azu put his attention back onto the T-Rex still barely acknowledging the man next to him. The man didn't seem to have ill intentions towards Azu, and Azu certainly wasn't ruthless enough to attempt to slay someone who didn't intend on doing anything rash. Azu quite enjoyed speaking to someone other than himself, in fact he hadn't exactly been able to do this since taking over the wheel and driving Azurai's body. With every pace Azu took towards the T-Rex the giant creature would seemingly slow down. This gave the strange illusion that Azu was picking up pace when he was actually putting no effort into his movement at all. The T-Rex continued to slow down until it eventually fell, creating a loud crackling sound which echoed through the wastes. Azu smirked to himself quickly stopping in place.
"You're going to want to move away for this next part, it's dinner time."

Chellon simply floated along side the man for a few moments a bit of silence, a little confused as to if the man knew he was even there or not. Maybe this race was so intent in the hunt that they blocked out all other outside sources but their meal itself? No... no that'd be a stupid thing for a race to do, it'd cause them to die out so quickly that there would be no way a single member of their race would last too long. However, before he could speculate about anything else that was going on with the man and the lumbering, dying creature, he heard a response rise up from the fellow below him and while it was short, it was sweet. It might not have given him too much on what the creature was, but a name had power, and moreso the fact that it was an edible creature too was a note that Chellon would keep in mind for later.
"Well, that wasn't too hard to do now was it... a t-rex... curious indeed..." Chellon said, letting his jetpack cut out. He landed on the ground with a quiet thud and kept his pace behind the man, occasionally looking around them in a cautious manner, his hand still on his pistol. For someone to just be walking in the middle of nowhere like this without any supplies, gear, or armor, Chellon had to assume that in general the area was pretty safe, unless the man had a monstrous power level, then Chellon should be more then fine walking along the ground like this, injured t-rex or not. Chellon looked at the man once again and watched his face for any sign of emotion or concentration. It was really strange that someone was so focused on walking after something that they would not be up for chatting at least a little bit, but he didn't really know much about the man.
Soon, a crackling sound caused Chellon to snap out of his thoughts and look forward, seeing the large creature that they two of them were following had collapsed and no longer seemed to be moving. Chellon was all about flying over and examining the T-Rex's corpse and learning more about the creature's flesh and more, but the man had other plans. This man was going to eat, and after some past experiences, he understood that some people could eat a lot more then it looked like they could eat, and Chellon needed to think of something very quick before the man actually ate something. "WAIT! I mean... sorry to bother you before your meal but this beast stole my last meal... and I was wondering if I could actually perhaps have a piece of it, since it was my... distraction that allowed you to get off a clear shot on the creature."
Chellon moved next to the man, his hand gestures as he spoke a bit wild, only for him to pull his hands in and keep them still. "I mean, I won't ask for much... maybe just the tail? I'd like to replace my stores that I have lost and the tail would be more then enough to last for at least a month, so if you are ok with that, that would be just great." He added, taking a step back and watching the man for any sort of reaction.

Azu acknowledged Chellon's request for the T-Rex's tail by nodding toward his general area. Azu was caught off guard at the man's sudden request for a piece of the prize but the tail was the gross part anyway. Azu approached the now deceased animal. Upon reaching the tail Azu put his hands together in a praying position and quickly charged his arm forward into the beginning section of the animals tail. With his arms quickly digging into the animal Azu would suddenly rotate his arms 180 degress with the backs of his hands now touching. After this Azu would use all of his power to push both of his arms in opposite directions, ripping the tail and the animal in half. While the animal ripped, and tore blood, guts and whatever was inside the animal would begin to spurt everywhere as it covered Azu in a bloody mess.
"Now I have to wash myself..."
This annoyed Azu but the animal was now torn apart, the tail being separate from everything else. Upon doing this Azu would once again begin charging an energy wave in the palm of his hand. Wasting no time Azu would throw this moderately charged energy wave at his half of the animal as it put a hole straight through the stomach of his prize, with everything around this hole now being grilled and completely ready to eat. Azu wasted no time in savagely ripping apart the cooked part of the animal as he fed his empty stomach. To the man behind him Azu probably looked like some sort of beast but this is what days without food will do to a man.
(sorry for the inactivity been a bit busy
edit: also sorry if it's a bit rushed and hard to follow)

Chellon looked at the man after he had removed the tail from the beast in a particularly viscous manner, basically covering himself in blood and guts. A little shocked and a tad confused, the Android rubbed his head a bit and looked at the person in question before looking at his part of the reward. Pulling out his tablet once more and pressing a few buttons, Chellon had ordered a couple of drones to come to the location and retrieve the tail and return it back to his ship. He looked over at the male when he mentioned needing a wash, and Chellon sat in silence for a few moments before shrugging a little bit. "Well... if you wish... you could get cleansed back at my ship..." He offered, before watching the man make his way back to the fresh corpse.
Floating around the man a bit as he watched him charge energy once again, Chellon took interest in the method which the man used to contain and control the energy. It seemed like he was holding the energy in the air above his hands, only to release it into the beast once more. However, this time the energy also cooked the creature well enough that the man was able to start eating his meal in almost no time flat. That fact alone impressed Chellon, curious as to how energy could have been used to cook the meat so quickly without actually burning it, but there was many things that Chellon admitted to not really knowing, and this would simply add onto that list. Before he said anything to the man about his wild eating habits, his drones arrived and began to surround the tail of the beast. Floating over to them, he would directly them silently, ordering them into position around the tail and then ordering it back to his ship.
"Skin the flesh as completely as you can, it'll be good as a cloak... as for the meat, make sure to set up some of it for creating dried meat on the off chance good is scarce." Chellon ordered, and the droids let out some beeping noises, before flying back toward his vessel with the tail suspended between them. "So... what or who are you... if you don't mind me asking..." Chellon asked, keeping a decent distance away from the individual as he ate.
