(Side-Thread #1 of the America Arc, intended to show, after the events of "Second Chance" how Camo loses his way...)
Chris had finished up lunch with Grant, Xaviax had let them do as they wished...and they'd already taken advantage of that once, defeating a pair of minions they saw running around. Which didn't really bother Xaviax all that much, because he always had more...and it added to their illusions that they were doing the right thing.
Now they walked out of the place where they went to eat....

"It's been a while since I've been here," Grant commented, "I performed here once, a few years ago."

"Nice. How was the audience?" Chris asked in his usual tone, looking around a bit, having his green hoodie, matching camoflauge pants, and his duffel bag slung over his shoulder.

"Sizable," Grant said, "Not the largest, but not too small either." He didn't remember much aside from that.

"Sounds like they enjoyed your work. From what I saw back there in the base, I think I would have too." Chris commented, nodding a bit.

"When this is over, you'll have to see it, when I go back," Grant said, nodding to him, "It is amazing to watch; watching got me into it."

"Yeah, I'm in for that, man." Chris said, definitely interested in watching it. "Maybe if I can get this asthma cured, I can start doing some of that."

He smiled, though it was a bit forlorn. He didn't let Chris see, "I'd be happy to help you."

"Thanks...though right now...since I'm fighting and all...any advice? I've noticed I've started to tire out if the fight goes on for a while.." Chris said, looking at him.

After a minute, he said, "A fighter with no lung power needs to make every shot count," Grant commented, shrugging, "Or so I'd assume."

Chris looked at him, pondering that. "Yeah..." he said to start, nodding a bit.. "You're right. Thanks man."

"No problem," Grant said, clapping him on the shoulder.

This caused him to cough very briefly, but Chris managed to recover. "I'm alright." He said in his usual tone, before looking over at Grant. "Well, now what? I suppose we could continue looking for aliens." he said

"I think that would be best," he said, drawing his arm back down to his side as they walked.
As they walked, he looked around the area. They were near a park, where Grant stopped, watching an eight year old child play around on his own, trying to do some vaguely acrobatic moves.

Chris stopped as well, looking at Grant before following his line of sight, seeing the child play around.
