...in her opinion, this was another reason she didn't need clothes and was happy for it.
"Okay."
And away she went, after him, propelling herself through the water and orienting herself to the direction he had been staring. Fine. She would distract them. She burst from the water into the sky and lifted her hands, a ball of ki lighting up. First purpose was to attract attention, the second was both a combination of defence and attack if necessary.

There were two men, both dropping what was in their hands and turning their eyes up to Aisuko. They would both fire blasts of the own, rapid firing three at once each. The one on the left paused with a grunt, taking Okara's shin to the stomach, sending him flying off. Okara quickly shoved his things in his poack, turning to the tree line where seven more men came running from. He fired a Ki blast at the sand in front of him, throwing up a sort of smokescreen while he grabbed his armor.
He rocketed into the sky, aiming to fly by Aisuko so she could join him. He would land on the other side of the lake, quickly throwing his armor on his soaked form. He would turn and look back at the lake, where three men could be seen approachning, flying at top speed. Only now did Okara see them for who they were.
"Saiyans.....they are Saiyan bounty hunters. They must be after me and my mom..."
He turned to Aisuko.
"Come on, lets hide in the woods."
He'd then take off running into the forest!

Aisuko's aura burst out from around her as she fueled just a little more power into the ball of ki. As their shots fired off, so did hers, accompanied by a "Hailstorm!". The ball of ki suspended over her hands broke apart into six smaller balls and shot off to intercept their ki blasts, letting the Saiyan take care of his own self, with his distractions. The release of the restrictions she'd placed upon herself felt good; no longer in "stealth mode", to to speak. Like getting up and stretching after being cramped into a small space, it was both painful and pleasing.
Her apparent companion bolting passed her, she turned and shot off after him, keeping watch and hovering as he threw on his protective clothing again.
Into the woods? She hummed a little but followed, bolting into the foliage in the air, swerving through the trees and rapidly dampening her power, once again.

He paused in his packing for a moment, a little awed at the feeling of her power bursting out. The...hell? She hadn't felt like that before! Had she subdued her energy, like his father taught him to do? He had questions- and planned to bug her with every last one of them once they were clean and clear. He would reach down absent mindedly and take her hand, darting left and off toward an overgrown hill with a small opening. He'd release her hand and toss his things inside before crawling in after it, his voice echoing back.
"C'mon, theres plenty of room for two!"
Once inside the cave, she would find that it hooked deep and around a corner, where light from a shaft poured in. There was already some equipment there, and he took a few deep breaths, looking around. Good- dust was undisturbed. Nobody had been there. He would turn back to her.
"What was that? You felt...not right either. Much stronger."
He eyed her dubiously.

Her eyes darted down as he took her hand to dart - and drag, just a moment - her left. She pulled to a stop, extracting her hand from his, just outside of the cave. She eyed the small space rather dubiously and heaved a sigh before following, praying that the space opened up and she wouldn't be trapped in some dark, dank space with a kid she wasn't entirely certain of to begin with. Thankfully, though, it seemed to, and she sat after emerging, coiling her tail and resting it overtop her crossed legs.
"Hum? Yes. No point in drawing attention to myself, you see."
She tilted her head, watching him, apparently curious as to his reaction.

He stared, eyes narrowing, before reaching into his bag and pulling out his dad's scanner. He programmed it to read her max PL before putting it on.
What does he see?

The Dice Gods decreed that Okara would only see a power level of 350 that ebbed and flowed between that and 300, just like the waves against a shore.
Her head slowly tipped further, curious.

His eyes narrowed.
"Show me....what you can really do, Aisuko. I know this isn't everything."
He wanted to know...he had to.

"Probably not a good idea with the swarm of...whoever those earthlings were in the area."
She brushed him off with a calm and rather imperious blink.

He scowled.
"They don't have the ability to sense where we are, or feel our energies. If they did, they would have known we were under water, and the man i kicked would have seen me approach from behind."
She was deflecting...that startled him a little.

"If you want to see what I 'can really do', that would very likely draw attention from destruction of the area."
She just blinked again.

He chewed his lip.
"No I meant....power up. Show me your ability. Your power. I want to see."
He would fold his arms.
"You show me yours and I'll show you mine."
He blinked- woah, that sounded wrong.

"Why do you want to know, so badly..?"
His little quip at the end caused her to arch a brow again, but she stayed silent, waiting for his answer. So far, she wasn't too impressed.

He sighed.
"My father would write a lot about power. How it spoke volumes about character. For instance....if you are strong, but you don't show it, you are humble. Wise. You think ahead, and keep your abilities secret so nobody really knows what you can do. If you are strong, and show it, you are flashy. Irratic. Possibly dangerous as you have nothing to hide or lose. And I didn't...expect or think you would be strong. I want to know if you deceived me, or if my judgement was right. If it wasn't....I have work to do regarding judging books by covers."
He would stare at her.
"But...if you really don't feel like it, it's not like I plan to make you."
And so he would remove his scanner and put it back in the pack before hovering over to the opening and peering out, trying to see what he could see.

She closed her eyes to roll them a little.
"Fine. But it's going right back down to this level, after."
So, if he didn't set his scanner away, she uncoiled her power like one would unwrap a blanket from their shoulders. She sat, apparently a little stiffly. If he looked, she would wait until he motioned to either take the scanner off or look away, and then her power level diminished once again.
