Charlie walked back and forth and had hirself an idea. If these pieces were made like this, what if how they were constructed to hide were no mere coincidence, but to hide the technology that they possessed at that time. It clicked in hir head. "Power. They need a power source big enough." Shi said to hirself. Shi decided to take a trip to a well known power source. Hir boyscout troop took a trip to Boulder City, Nevada. There shi had asked what powers the city.
Shi sat there as hir grandchild nursed from the bottle. Shi had been adviced since shi wasn't the legit mother, or father, to use a bottle. So Maurice had concocted a senthetic milk for the two little ones from the dna of Snowflake and Janice. As shi sat there, it had clicked. Shi seen something odd:
"Okay, kids," the scoutmaster said. "We are touring the Hoover Damn." He smiled at little Charlie. "Charlie, you're smart, do you know what the name of this magnificent place was before it is now?"
"Sir, is it the Boulder Damn, it was built to power the fort nearby. Eventually now it powers the full city of Las Vegas."
It was then that snapped Charlie out. Shi looked over. "Sally, I think I know where a piece may be." Shi stands up and passes the child to Sally. Shi then walks outside and gets ready to make a call.
Sally looked. "Charlie, what's going on?"
"Well, I remembered my scouting trip. They said that the ship needed a whole shit load of power. Well, what city uses the most power?"
"New York?"
"Try again."
"LA?"
"Close, but miles away."
"No, not Vegas."
"Yep. And it's source is the Hoover."
"You mean the vaccum cleaner?" Maurice smiled.
"No. The Dam, Maurice." Shi continued to walk towards the airport and made a call. "Nemo, you and Casey meet me at the Hoover Dam, she'll know where it's at."
A few short hours later, Charlie was there and met up with Nemo and Casey. "Sssso, why did you call ussss here, Charlie?"
"Well, you guys mentioned something about a power source. Well, this thing powers the entire city of Las Vegas, and much more." Charlie explained. Shi walked up and spoke with someone there. They then took them in to examine parts of the area.
"I still don't see what we're looking for." Nemo said.
"You'll know when you see it, okay."
---------------------------------------
While they were there, Talia had decided to walk Paris. Shi had gotten a call from Charlie about hir idea. Shi had thought it could be possible. After all, Paris would need a large power source. So shi went downtown to look.
There shi found the plant. It was ran off the river system. Shi searched and found something. Shi examined it closer but confirmed it not to be what shi was seeking. So shi gave up the idea, but shi had decided to look for it in other nations. Shi walked right up and headed to the nearest train. If Paris didn't, perhaps London had something. Shi was thinking of Big Ben. So shi waited for the train.
-------------------------------------
Charlie had stopped and found a door blocked, shi had one of the guards open it, which gave some difficulty. Charlie then chose to ram hir shoulder. Which caused the door to give way. What Charlie found was what shi was looking for. Shi looked and hollared for Nemo and Casey.
Nemo smiled. "Charlie, I think I'm getting the idea." Shi walked right up and touched a spot causing it to shift and burst out. Fortunately it didn't cause a leak but it did cause what they thought, a perfect excuse to repair.
Nemo looked. "It'll fly to the ship. Now we got our power. If we get more, we'll be able to possibly activate the rest to bring them all here."
Charlie looked. "Really?"
"It's not a garrentee." Nemo smiled.
The three had decided to take a break and head back home. They started to talk on their way. "So what brought this about Charlie?" Nemo asks.
"A childhood memory." Shi smiled.
Casey looks. "Well how will we know where thesssse thingsss are?"
Charlie thought. "Perhaps they are, in plain sight but not always as we just seen. But if you think about it, it'll be something that none would notice. It's clever to hide like that."
Nemo thought. "I agree, it's how our people thought. No one would think to look in plain sight."
