Location: Forest and Mountain Pass
(March 26th 2521) Clutching onto a nearby tree, he is walking next to Model E as he floats along the way over a bush or two.
‘Of course... I of all people is lost..’ he thought to himself.
“Isn’t that right, Model E?” he said directly to Model E, knowing no one else was around.
/What was that?/ Model E replied.
“Nothing... nothing.” They continued walking, looking for something – someone—to help both of them find their way around. Fervo was definitely not familiar with this territory and neither he nor Model E was sure how they arrived.

There was a very large man leaning against one of the trees in this part of Innerpeace. He was pretty shady in character, with the hat pulled over his eyes hiding his face, and his trench coat billowing only very slightly in the wind. The man himself had found some time to wander around the place, learning more about it.
So far he had Alki back, there was the Tournament that he wished he'd never have to talk about again. Jake was beginning to wonder if this was all worth it. And Kristine... something about her felt so familiar, and comforting...
Jake's head lifted when he heard a voice in the forest. He frowned for a moment, putting his hand on one of the hilts of the plasma blades he had, looking around. Of course he noticed in the distance it was just a young man. He didn't look too threatening so he relaxed and watched the man carefully.
"..." Was he lost? Innerpeace is starting to get big, after all.

As Fervo and Model E approach Jake, it's like they don't even notice him. Stuck between their own conversation.
"Hey... Model E, where do you suppose we are?" Fervo asked. /I don't know... apparently in the middle of a forest./ "Thanks.. I could tell that."
Fervo steps over another bush as Model E simply floats over the one next to it.
"That floating thing is kinda... useful. I wish I could do it." /Well, you're not a biometal, are you?/ "No.. but.."
Model E didn't reply, by now both of them were getting closer to Jake... still oblivious to his presence.

Jake glanced over at Fervo as the voices got louder. Of course he was curious as to what was going on, but right now seemed to be that this kid was talking to his... oh that was a bimetal. Explains the garbled voice that he was hearing.
So they were lost. That kid was asking where they were but it seems that whatever the bimetal said, it was obvious. The hand stood up straight this time, pressing his foot on a branch to make it snap loudly, watching the two of them.
Jake crossed his arms over and just waited for any kind of response. If they were lost, he'd at least direct them to Innerpeace. That was the most he would do.

Fervo, about to ask Model E another ridiculous question, was startled by the random snapping sound produced by the branch.
He quickly snatched Model E, jumping backwards, his other hand on the pure-white hilt of the rapier attached to his side. Looking around, he finally notices Jake.
"Um... hello.. I hope you won't be my first enemy.. already.."
He said quickly, making sure this person, whom he is pretty sure he has never met, doesn't react violently.

Jake adjusts the brim of his hat as the other had put his hand on the hilt of his rapier. Good, this kid was capable of taking care of himself in the least. Innerpeace wasn't exactly the friendliest town either way, so the larger male cyborg jammed his hands in his pockets and then crossed his leg over, tapping the toe of his blue boots on the ground.
"Not unless you try and threaten me in any way." He grunted, pulling out a cigarette. "You lost or something?" He lighted the cigarette and then stuck it in his mouth to smoke.
Yeah, fairly crude for him, but either way, he was a casual man until one pisses him off.

Fervo gave a big sigh, relieved he wouldn't have to fight already. Especially since he knew nothing about where he was.. he was at a total disadvantage.
"That's good.. but, yes, I am lost! I was on the way to becoming hopelessly lost however.."
He finally released the Model E he still grasped tightly, his hand still resting on his rapier though. Fervo, realizing he forgot one of the most important parts of meeting a strange, quickly tried correct himself.
"But wait.. before we get into all that.. I am Fervo. Fervo Hope and this little trinket is..."
/I'm not a trinket.. I am Model E./

Jake himself was pretty amused at what Fervo said. Isn't that what usually happens, though? getting hopelessly lost and dragging oneself in the middle of something even bigger than what really is? He adjusted the brim of his hat as he spoke up. Oh yeah, introductions. Of course he didn't know the biometal's name since he, while he could hear him, he couldn't understand him..
"Yes, I am aware that is a biometal there. They run rampant around here. My daughter is one as well, but while I might be able to hear it, I can't understand it." He scratched his head.
"Nice to meet you and you biometal, Fervo Hope. I'm known as Jake Ambrosi." He spoke up. "You lookin' for Innerpeace? That's the nearby city."

Fervo was pretty confused now.. someone who could hear it, but not understand it? Was he speaking a different language? Well, no.. this Jake could easily understand him and talk to him...
"If Innerpeace is a place where I might find shelter, and learn more about.. well more about where I am, then yes. Innerpeace is my current destination."
Looking around, he tries to notice a city.. 'I guess nearby isn't that... nearby.' he thought to himself.
Quickly thinking about what Fervo and Jake has already talked about, he realizes two things: one, he made a pun without realizing it and two, there are other megamen here. At least one, Jake's daughter. That's great.
"But wait, mister Jake, before we get on the topic of this Innerpeace... there are more people with biometals around here? That trin--... biometal is known as Model E." He started to trail off, emersered in his own thoughts.
'If there are other people with biometals.. well I just hope they aren't hostile.' he thought to himself, not wanting to seem unsure of his own ability to fight, however this is still a disadvantage situation to him.
"You would think... someone with the last name Hope.. and Model E would never be hopeless" He mumbled.

Confusion? Well Jake wouldn't know how to explain anything about biometals. He shrugged when he spoke up about it. Well, the most he could do now was point in the direction of the city. Jake leaned back as he asked about the biometals.
"I know quite a few of them, like my daughter, and her friend. That friend's brother too. It's just best to keep an open eye..." He then spoke with a warning tone. "And be very careful about who you trust. Some people are after those biometals."
He then paused when Fervo muttered something, but he shook his head. Oh well. He rubbed his bearded chin before pointing off in a direction.
"heading west here should lead you to the main districts of Innerpeace. There you'll be able to find places to eat, rest, and work." Speaking of work, he'll have to go soon and head to Xentech...
