Just under two hours passed before Yautja finished making the visor. The ships camera's had given Yautja the exact dimensions of her head, a necessity for the visor to work properly. Each one was custom made for a specific individual, and they did not work if they were even a millimetre out. Yautja, however, had no doubts about if this would be a perfect fit for Ayame, he simply knew it would.

A glance at a display in his mask gave him the location of Ayame, she was in the trophy room cleaning his trophies. His mandibles clicked with pleasure as Yautja set off towards the trophy room, visor in hand. It might slow down the rate at which she cleaned the trophies, but Yautja wanted to give her the visor sooner rather than later.

Walking into the trophy room Yautja moved through the racks of skulls until he found Ayame, just as she finished cleaning a trophy. Put this on. Yautja saw her jump slightly at his voice, obviously she hadn't noticed his approach. When she turned he held out the visor.

Once she put it on suddenly it would come to life. She would be able to hear Yautja's breathing, and her own heart beat. Whenever her eyes focused on something the visor would zoom in and magnify that and her gaze was sharp across huge distances, not that their were any inside the ship. The zoom in particular was difficult to control, and she would have to get used to her new enhanced hearing. But the main change would be that now every trophy had a label indicating what it was from, what world in what system and if she focused on one a image of what it had looked like and its capabilities.

Focused on cleaning the many hundreds of trophies as she was, Ayame did not hear Yautja approach until he spoke. Jumping slightly at the sound of his voice she turned around and said "You startled me!" She looked at the visor and asked "You finished it already? Wow." Taking it from him she placed it on her head and taking a moment to make sure it was in a comfortable position she then noticed the changes. Her hearing, already very sharp in her natural state, was quite enhanced and as such she could hear every breath they both took and even her own heartbeat, and her eyesight which was unused to the zoom of the visor closed in on Yautja's body.

"Woah! This might take some getting used to." she told him, looking around at the racks of trophies and just now seeing the displays about each different trophy. "So these pictures show where all these trophies came from?" she asked him making sure to take the time to look at each one in time.

That is correct. Rather than have a physical label I find it easier, and requires less space, if I simply get the ships computer to electronically label each trophy with the various details about it. It shows where they came from, and the capabilities of what they came from. It can also give an equal amount of detail on anything else it sees, and has an uplink to the ships main computer. It already has a stored list of every plant you would find edible on the world we are approaching. I would advise you keep that on while you work and practice controlling the zoom and the hearing. Yautja nodded once before turning and walking out of the room.

He had his gear to collect, and a hunt to prepare for. Reaching the armoury his equipment was stored in he quickly attached each piece to his mesh bodysuit. But as fast as he was it would still take some time as he had to test each weapon to ensure the uplink had worked and it was fully unlocked.

"That makes sense. If you used actual labels with the same capabilities they would be crowding the rooms space. But anyways, if you say I should keep it on then I will. Don't want to be unpracticed and end up fumbling around on this planet we're going to." she told him, before turning back to the trophy case and picking up the next one in the line she had not cleaned yet.

As he left the room she returned her focus solely to the trophies all the while thinking of what the planet they were going to would be like. She had been locked in that cell for so long that she had almost forgotten what the 'real' world was like. It would be a welcome change to visit this world, if everything went as they planned that is.

As the Shadow Stalker entered the planet's atmosphere there was nothing to indicate it to Yautja or Ayame, well except the warning inside Yautja's mask. The ship landed from it's high velocity descent easily, and its inertia dampeners ensured that the sudden stop did not affect the crew inside. A quick look at the camera's showed Yautja that Ayame was just finishing cleaning the last of the trophies. Since the main passenger entrance to the ship was through the trophy room it wouldn't matter.

Yautja had finished his check just before the ship landed, and he had started walking towards the exit hatch. Reaching the trophy room he walked through it towards the exit, walking past Ayame as he did so. We have arrived. The ship will open when you approach, and if anything gets inside the security systems will deal with it. Try to stay close to the ship, this world is dangerous.

With that the door hissed open and Yautja stepped out. Activating his cloaking he moved off into the dense jungle, seeking something to call his prey.

By the time the last of the trophies were clean Yautja had entered the massive trophy room and as Ayame placed the cleaning cloth back into its place on the wall she listened carefully to his warning and said "Alright. I won't go out too far. My energy could use a bit more time to recover before I'm drawn into a fight anyways."

After Yautja stepped out and disappeared into the dense jungle searching for prey Ayame soon followed him to the door, her pale naked flesh soaking in the feeling of the fresh humid air of the jungle planet. And as she stepped off of the chilled metal of the ship's interior onto the warm earth below the visor she was given sprang into action, giving her the locations of several full fruit trees close to the area the ship had landed in.

Leaving the ship to protect itself as Yautja had said it would Ayame followed the visor's directions to a grouping of massive trees and as her gaze drifted upward she saw many bunches of fruit bearing flowers hanging low and carrying a fruit that her visor said was edible although they were likely some of the largest she had ever seen. They resembled massive apples although they had more of a pink coloring rather then the deep red or green of a normal one.

Not in any mood to climb the massive tree in a normal fashion, which would have her nude body rubbing against the rough bark of the old tree, she decided to take a different approach. Running towards the tree she used what of her strength had returned to run up the bark, vaulting from tree to tree when it seemed that her momentum was stalling. And before long the agile kitsune had reached a branch holding the fruit.

Knowing that she would not be able to carry all of the massive fruit hanging from this single flower down the tree by herself she focused her energy into the
plant causing it to grow rapidly a vine seeming to be racing it towards the ground and as it did she rode the vine down towards the ground with it. Quickly touching down on the ground she cut the fruit laden flower free from its vine with a sharp nail she said to herself "I guess these are good enough for now." and began to carry them back towards the ship and all the while keeping track of her surroundings not taking the warning of danger that Yautja had given her lightly.

Yautja moved through the jungle with practised ease, despite his bulk even the native animal's struggled to notice him as his path was silent, and his body hidden via a cloaking field. His mask's sensors were active, scanning the jungle for any trace of the massive beast he was hunting. It didn't take long for him to find it, a path of trampled trees and crushed undergrowth led him straight to one. The being in question was massive, nearly twenty feet high, and built like a human house it's front was heavily armoured as it plodded along. It didn't seem to even notice the trees that were getting in it's way, and Yautja let out a hunting roar at it as his spear was in his hand. At the cry, one of challenge, the animal turned around and charged.

With that battle was joined, Yautja exclusivly using his spear against a creature that ruled this world. This battle would be a good fight, and the trophy worthy of his trophy room. Of course he wouldn't be able to get the skull, it was simply too big. He would have to find something suitable after the fight.

***

A low growl sounded from the jungle near Ayame, something had caught her scent, and the predator had followed that trail straight to her. It could see the ship behind her, a dull block of strange smelling rock. Her appearance had thrown it, it had never seen or smelt something like her again. But that confusion would soon fade. When it did it would strike, or at least try to.

Ayame had almost made it back to the ship when she heard it - a low growl from the dense jungle behind her. Stopping suddenly her large furry ears seemed to begin to twitch as she tracked the sound's movement. The visor's assistance almost made her senses rise to an unfair level for the predatory beast as she heard every step it made as it stalked closer through the dense brush. Bending down suddenly she set her load of the strange pink fruit onto the ground, and to the untrained eye it almost seemed as if she was inviting an attack with her shapely rear presented to the jungle behind her.

What the unseen beast could not see however was that she had cut one of the large pink fruit from its vine and as she held it in her hand she used the time to focus her energy into it. After a few short moments the fruit began to glow with an inner light, almost as if there was a hidden energy inside aching to escape. And with the patience of a practiced fighter the nude kitsune waited, waited for this beast to leave the safety of the dense jungle and make its move...where she would have her surprise waiting for it.

The beast in question almost leaped the moment the strange, but sweet, smelling two legged animal presented it's rear to it. But some instinct for survival held it back, restrained it's hunger. It waited, believing itself silent and undetected and with no knowledge of Ayame's special abilities, or the glowing seed. All it saw was a helpless and tasty smelling thing crouched in front of it. It sniffed again, and that extra whiff of scent propelled it into movement.

It's muscles sprung out and it charged towards Ayame. It was fast, very fast, and had covered half of the distance between her and it by the time she looked around. It resembled a large canine, it's thin muscles made it look stretched and gaunt, but were in fact quite strong for it's size and weight. It had a very short coat of dull green and grey fur, with yellow eye's gazing in hunger. Each of it's limbs had claws, and it's teeth were sharp enough to tear flesh off bone. It's tail had a barb on the end, a drop of poison forming on the tip as it charged forward. The visor, rather 'helpfully', identified the toxin as something designed to cause muscles to relax. A paralysis of sorts, once stung one would find it difficult to move, and yet their body retained it's sensations.

Crack! The snap of a small twig was all Ayame needed to warn her that the beast had finally made its move. But even with it quickly closing the distance between them she didn't move or turn around almost as if she did not hear the charging beast behind her. And finally after seeming to have been waiting for an unheard cue Ayame turned around, the bored expression on her face easily visible even with the visor covering her features, and as the beast opened its jaw for a tremendous growl she threw the glowing fruit down its throat.

With a mischevious grin on her face she said one word to the beast, "Boom!", and with that the fruit exploded releasing the explosive energy throughout its canine body. A harsh light spilled forth from its open mouth as more of that light shredded through its lean muscular body leaving gaping holes in the predatory beast before it fell to the ground as the light faded and thick lines of smoke floated free of its tattered body.

Shrugging as she looked down at the burnt body she said "The light may attract more of those things, but the ship can take care of them if that happens." And with that she turned back towards her haul of fruits picking them up before continuing her walk back towards the waiting ship.

The canine beast's mouth was slightly open, a low growl of victory and hunger rippling from it's throat as you did not react to it's swift approach. When the weird two legged thing with the funny tails and the sweet scent spun around it opened it's mouth more to let out a snarl and in preperation to bite. That instinct would turn out to be the animal's undoing, and as the glowing fruit was thrown into it's mouth and down it's throat it swallowed by reflex, just in time for Ayame to say "Boom!".

The beasts body was shredded from the inside by the explosion, a feat that Yautja saw on his own mask via security camera feed. An interesting ability, and as the rest of the pack closed in Ayame returned to the ship and it shut behind her. Even if one had managed to get in the various internal security measures in place would ensure that she would come to no harm. Yautja was starting to think the hunt he would have with Ayame would be very god indeed. The ability to practice control when under the affect of the pheromones, and the sex in general, had always promised to be good. And now it was turning out Ayame had several abilities that would make a hunt quite fun.

Even while he considered this Yautja used a ritual knife, the edge a line of plasma contained within a powerful magnetic field, to slice the crown of the crest of the beast he had hunted off. It was an elaborate work of bone, and even had a naturally occuring pattern on it. It was also, unlike the skull itself, small (well relativly as it was slightly larger than a human skull). He strapped it onto his mesh body suit and started making his way through the jungle, after spraying some pheromones on the corpse that would make it attract every predator within several human miles. After all, he didn't need the meat, so something might as well have it.

Sitting just inside the doorway, a pleased smile on her face at the chance to use her powers again, Ayame rested her back against the wall while every so often taking a bite of one of the large pink apple looking things. Looking at the closed door as her hearing combined with the great powers of the visor allowed her to hear the rest of that canine beast's pack closing around the ship she asked to the empty air "I wonder when Yautja will be back?"

Shrugging her shoulders she took the last few bites of one of her pieces of fruit before standing up to stretch. And with a wicked smile she charged the seeds she took from that fruit with her energy and opening the door for just a moment she threw them out towards the pack. As the door closed again the charged seeds sunk into the ground, as her power caused a plant bearing several of the glowing apples to grow rapidly.

After a few short moments each of the glowing fruits exploded with a thought from her and as the sounds of it began to fade she heard a few survivors of the pack whimpering as they ran back to the safety of the jungle leaving those who were caught in the blast to rot as they saved themselves.

Yautja returned to his ship to find a few more dead predators outside, and the last couple members of the pack slinking around. One had tried earlier to enter the ship, but a sudden loud shriek had driven it away. Now two more hungerly tried to pounce Yautja, who didn't even use a weapon to smash the two beasts down. They weren't the only predators on this planet, and the moment Yautja had come there had been a new king of that particular group of hunters.

The ship opened up as he approached and he walked inside without a second glance as it closed behind him. Mandibles tapped controls and the ship started its take-off sequence. Inertia dampeners ensured that he, and his passanger, did not feel a thing from the ships massive flare of acceleration as it quickly achieved the thrust required to break atmosphere and started calculating a FTL jump to somewhere safe to allow Yautja to rest in peace before his next hunt.

With all that done Yautja started moving through his trophy room, trying to work out just where he would, or more accuratly since he was running out of space could, put it. He would have a few more hunts, at least until Ayame recovered enough to make her a worthy prey, and once he had hunted and dropped her off he would pay one of the Ruiels a visit.

After having her fun getting rid of the canine-like predators amassed outside the ship Ayame had decided to pass some time in her room meditating to get rid of more of the seal on her belly. By the time she had finished less than a quarter of it was remaining and as she walked back into the trophy room to see if Yautja had returned yet she saw him walking into the ship.

"Welcome back, Yautja." she said from across the ship, waving at him as he walked in carrying in the trophy he took from his hunt today. Quickly walking through the aisles of trophies to catch up with him she asked "I see you found what you came to hunt. Is there anything you'd like me to clean now?" It never hurt anyone to get things done quick she thought to herself as she waited for his anwser.

Yautja didn't visibly react to Ayame's question and approach, only that was only due to the mask covering his face. Out of the corner of his eye he watched her, his masks highly advanced sensors picking up that the strange energy she had was stronger than ever, and yet was still being limited by something. However the moment he found the spot for the trophy he used a mandible to tap a button inside his mask and as the trophy racks cycled around to the correct spot he replied. If you give me a little bit of time I'll put my equipment back in it's racks and you can clean it. What about your hunt? Did you find what you were looking for?

Yautja already knew the answer to those particular questions, the security camera's made sure of that. And yet he didn't want to let her know he had been constantly watching and assessing her, judging her worth as prey. Working out her strength. He placed the trophy on the space he had selected, and when Ayame had answered walked off to put his equipment back in their own racks. After all, his armour was covered in his prey's blood, as were his gauntlets and spear. The fight had gotten quite brutal, with his prey taking multiple slashes through it's veins and nerve clusters before finally going down. The end result was rather messy, but Yautja wouldn't have a hunt any other way.
