So "yay", I guess.)<br/><br/>Nova snapped out of his daze and saw Lenger crying in what he thought was fear and Zaana hissing and glaring at a plant that was hissing back at her.  Nova pulled out a zippo lighter and flicked it on in an attempt to intimidate the strange, living plant as he snarled, "Whatever the hell you are, stay away from Zaana and Lenger before I burn you to a crisp!"
