"To see a World in a Grain of Sand,
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower..." he found himself reciting. It was an old William Blake poem he'd heard a couple of times as a kid, somehow it'd lodged itself into his subconscious.
"... Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour..."

He wasn't sure what the resulting planty expression meant.
"Do not be afraid" he told her, entirely certain she could protect herself with her retractable spikes, yet wanting to reassure her anyway.
With her human hand she pointed skywards. He followed the finger to see an airborne Shark Boy and Mech Girl fighting several winged dinosaurs and cavemen, they battled with skill and seemed to have things under control, but heading towards them was a large dragon. He nodded at the plant-lady.

Silky Eve was holding Gummy Jaxx as she performed some serious dog fighting tactics against the cavemen on the Pterodactyls. The cavemen seem to have a fur sac of rocks that they used to throw at their enemies. Normally they would not be much of a threat to Silky Eve's mech suit, however with the odds of fifty to one in their favor, Silky Eve had to be careful. Silky Eve said, "Hold on Gummy. I'm gonna have to get higher to gain the advantage." Gummy Jaxx replied, "What?" Then Silky Eve blasted up at an alarming speed while being chased by the cavemen on the Pterodactyls. As Silky Eve and Gummy Jaxx ascended up in the sky several of the cavemen on the Pterodactyls began loosing consciousness and falling towards the ground.

As Silky Eve looked at her holo scanners she saw many of the the cavemen on the Pterodactyls had dropped down below. The she noticed Gummy Jaxx was shaking but was still holding on. Silky Eve thought, "Please hang in their Gummy. This must be wreaking havoc on your mind." After reaching a very high altitude Silky Eve turned around to see a few cavemen on the Pterodactyls struggling to fly after her. Then Silky Eve smiled as she stopped and activated her guns and mini missiles and targeted the cavemen on the Pterodactyls. After a few seconds and a lock on all targets, Silky Eve began blasting the remaining cavemen on the Pterodactyls from the sky. The cavemen on the Pterodactyls quickly derezed in the air as their body was erased.

Silky Eve was impressed by her handy work till she heard Gummy Jaxx say ,"Sweet! That was totally Awesome! Lets do that again Eve babe!" Suddenly several flash backs of Evelina and Jaxx together as he said, "Hey Eve babe." repeatedly. While Silky Eve was zoned out Gummy Jaxx was looking down below and saw a red air plane with three wings. Then Gummy Jaxx interrupted Silky Eve to say, "Hey Silky Eve whats that flying ship?" Just then Silky Eve looked and her scans to see a warning as it confirmed they were being attacked by the Red Barron in his tri-plane along with some back up in bi-planes. Silky Eve said, "This is not good. We need to take him out quick." Gummy Jaxx pondered as Silky Eve took evasive action.

Silky Eve tried to put some distance between her and the Red Barron but somehow he managed to close in on her. As she flew in a zig-zag motion to avoid a target lock, Silky Eve managed to shoot her mini missiles and take out several of the escort fighters from behind. As Silky Eve did several barrel rolls to both dodge and attack , she managed to shoot down all the escort fighters, which left only the Red Barron.
