The citron figure dashed away from the three 'alien' plants behind her. She ran as fast as her fruity legs could carry her. She didn't look back, or wanted to look back because it would most likely slow her from her run. She didn't want to be captured and be experimented like a primitive animalistic specimen, or be interrogated because she had no idea on how to speak or learn their language, she might say or do something that will cause conflict. That's the last thing that she would like to never happen. All she wanted to do was get away from them at the moment.

She looked around for something to hide in since her cloak wasn't working at the moment. She saw a house up ahead, or an inhabitant's dwelling inside Pulse's head.

'What happened to my cloaking? I was sure it was working perfectly when I left!...oh wait..." Pulse then thought back to the times she was attacked, she remembered the bipedal creatures who shot at her earlier with their weapons.

'Did those weapons those beings have had some kind of foreign substance or property in there that affected my cloaking?' she though deeply about, and the more she did the more sense it made to her. 'Or did I not fix it properly before I left my ship?'

She kept running from those extraterrestrials, but soon she set foot on very rough terrain, the ground clawing at her. She didn't worry since her suit protected her feet from the rough ground. She smiled and continued on with no negative effect on her.

There was suddenly loud yelling behind her. She didn't turn around, but she felt that it might have been a threat towards her, most likely by the plant like aliens. Pulse wanted to examine them further, the orange one looked just like her in shape, but definitely not in facial or DNA comparison if sh ever get samples. The other two were like some other flora friends that she had back home.

Then the yelling got louder and angrier. If Pulse had to make a guess, it was most likely the tall yellow one that was doing it, mostly due to personal experience with one that she knew back in her home world.

'Gah! No matter, I just need to escape!' Pulse leapt and curled up into her ballform, after rembembering she had that ability since she used flight more. She activated her hyper and sprung away from the three chasers rather fast.

...

Citron widened his eyes and he too rolled up to catch up to the unidentified plant as they rolled away. Agents Corn and Rose were left in the dust, much to their frustration. The unknown plant was quite skilled in dodging the trees and bushes in their way, but Citron was just as skilled, maybe even better since his target occasionally bumped into rocks and tree trunks. He could tell this plant was desperately trying to get away.

"Hey you, why are you rolling away?! Stop so we can talk!" Citron exclaimed towards the other citron, they didn't stop and so continued rolling.

"Dammit don't ignore me! Stop this instant! I am an agent of the pla-" he stopped when he noticed the citron make a turn through some trees. He was about to to turn as well to follow them but a missile came rushing to his direction. He jumped over, barely dodging it, and blew up the ground he was just on." What the hell!?"

When he landed he shifted back to his bipedal form and stared at the impact site. High pitched manical laugher came from behind Citron, so he turned towards the source of it he didn't need to guess. A z-mech came barreling through the trees, which broke and toppled them to the ground. The imp inside who drove it laughed again, which made Citron cringe.

"Well look who we have here." The zombie inside said cheerfully, a grin on its ugly face.

Citron sighed "I don't have time for you, I have more important busyness than break your toy."

"What? So your just gonna walk away like I'm nothing to challenge?" The imp sounded angry at those words.

"With all the countless times I took you down, yes, you are an annoyance than a threat these days." Citron had a smile start to decorate his face.

The imp made tiny adorable fists and slammed them on his mech's controls. "I will make you eat those words!" The mech raised its gun and began firing at its rival. Citron dodged the the shots and fired an EMP at it. The robot however, punched the peach away before it detonated.

Citron sighed in annoyance, and went to battle the enemy.

...

'Did they give up?' Pulse asked in her head after she noticed the plants were no longer on her tail. She rolled for several more minutes to make sure they weren't still following her. Soon she stopped near a cliff to rest for a bit. She shifted out of her ball and sat down near a tree to take a break. She stared up at the sky and noticed that it was turining very dark, the planet's star began to disappear over the horizon. She smiled at the beautiful susnset as She watched it deplete over time, as well as taking pictures of it.

She then spotted a small light floating infront of herself. Her eyes widened and watched it land infront of her visor, a tiny glowing insect creature crawled around it. Pulse gently raised a hand, wanting to make herself appear less menacing. When her arm got close enough to it, it crawled on it slowly.

Pulse gently brought it closer to her visor, getting a good look at it. The tiny insect had the facial comparison of the orange flora alien that was chasing her down. The body shape was similar, except it was much rounder, had antennas, wings, large eyes, and its organic lights at the end of its body .

The tiny bug looked down on her metal in confusion, never in its small life had it encountered a being such as herself before.

Pulse smiled as it walked around on her, she admits, its very cute. She had the urge to take it with her, it would make an adorable pet. However, she knew she shouldn't, it belongs herein its environment and planet, even though countless sentient beings do it, wether for companionship, profit, and so on, Pulse simply...couldn't. So she continued to laid down and watch the star's light fade, turning the world to night.

The small firefly citron on her arm also laid down, resting on her cold metal appendage, but feeling confortable with its giant, strange, new friend as other fireflies came out and floated around them, some perching on the surface of Pulse's suit in the aproaching moonlight.


I'm back!

Sorry for the delay, I got out of school... a while back actually... and now I have lots of free time to do anything, woooohooo!

P.s. I noticed that the settings in the older chapters didn't line up properly with the current settings of the later chapters so I made edits, if you want to re-read them or not is fine. I would also appreciate to be told of mistakes I may had made.

Question: Do you readers want me to give names for the chapters or not? Coming up with names for the chapters is not my strongest suit and I don't feel confident about the titles, but naming them gives individuality to them and makes it easier to find certain content without struggling to go through each chapter. Also, do you like the chapter names? PM me for your answers please.
