Rain's hand flew across the materials, rushing yet focused, the materials messy, yet the design organized. She grabbed the memory card and inserted it into her PC. Typing and coding for several minutes. That ejected the card and installed it. She brought the pieces outside and assembled them. She didn't realize that it had been a whole day in till she passed out next to the helicopter. Echo ran outside to ring Rain on the grass with a helicopter. Echo quickly went back inside to find Moon. 

They both appeared later on "Is Rain asleep?" Said Echo while poking Rain in the back.

"I don't know but she probably exhausted." Moon replied sitting on the grass beside Rain. Rain's eyes snapped open and she immediately sprang up into a wolf's hunting position. She glared fiercely at them both before relaxing. 

"It's you two." She grumbled, collapsing on the grass. 

"Pfft- you thought we were enemies." Echo crackled laying on the grass. 

"When's breakfast? Your brothers cooking is trash!" Moon stuck out her tongue thinking about it disgustingly.

"What did he make this time?" She asked skeptically "His mushroom ravioli's the only thing worth eating." 

Echo and Moon both looked at each other and Echo almost gaged. "He made dumplings and the dumplings were sweet and dry..." Echo sighed. 

"You better make breakfast or I will jump off a cliff." Begged Moon.

"Alright." She stood up stretching and wincing "I'm sore." 

She wobbled to the kitchen, where Luke stood, looking crestfallen. Echo and Moon followed in going to the kitchen with Rain to see what she shall make this time. She mixed eggs with flour, salt and oil. It reached a batter texture and she grilled it with cheese. Soon the smell of arepas con queso's filled the air. 

"Muy bien! Muy bien, hermana!" Luke clapped his hands together. "Muy bien what now...?" Echo asked confused before looking at the food with interest 

"WOAH! Looks good!!" Squealed Moon. 

"Muy bien, very good en Español, hermosa." Luke explained as he helped himself to one. Echo looked at Luke with confusion 

"What's hermosa?" Echo asked. Rain chocked on her arepas and Luke thumped her back. Her face bright red. 

"He says you're pretty." She said hesitantly 

"Sí, what's your names, sonorita?" Luke chuckled. Echo looked at him blankly, 

"Ah! What a compliment!" Echo giggled. "Now Rain could tell you." Echo waved her hand in amusement.

"Sora and Maddison" she smiled gently "Are we leaving now?" 

"Let's gooo!" Echo pointed outside walking slowly there.

"She's drunk." Chuckled Rain to Moon entering the helicopter. 

"Hey! I am not! I don't even drink!" Echo glared at them.

"I have high alcohol intolerance." Rain shrugged as she fiddled with the controls. 

"Let's just go." Moon sighed. Echo ran inside the helicopter and sat down beside a nearby seat.

"Come on Rain!" Echo pooled her head outside of the entrance. Rain put on a headset and Luke having a matching one.

"SOAR, come estas?" She said to the helicopter AI.

"Estoy bien, senora. ¿Deberiamos ir?" replied SOAR.

"Sí, Japon, por favor. Gracias, amigo."

"Muy bien y de nada!" The helicopter took off steadily into the distance.

"Why does it have to be in Spanish! You know we don't understand Spanish..." Echo sighed in disappointment.

"Relax, hermosa." Rain smiled "las hablas ingles, no?"

"Si hablo ingles perfectamente." The AI replied.

Echo sighed giving up and just started playing chopsticks with Moon.
