We Are Our Avatars IX: Act V: The Sabotage of the Scandolous Saurian Scoundrels (Open)

[Zepherus14]

Sophia was confused when she was first woken up, not recognizing the barracks she was in. It took her a moment once she was finally awake to recall what had happened. Before they left for the Skyranger she managed to get some food, nibbling on it once they got onto the ship before promptly falling asleep shortly after she was sat down in the new seat, not even stirring from her slumber when the ship took off.

Once they got to their destination Sophia would have to be pestered awake before she'd wake up once they arrived.

Victoria was groggy as they woke her up to move, but didn't do anything to resist or postpone, wanting the irritating formalities to just be done with. With the UNCETREM troops not doing anything to hide their disdain and willingness to kill the group, Vicky responded completely in kine, growling condescending threats whenever she caught any of them doing anything she didn't appreciate.

When Joel noticed the guards start pointing guns in his general direction, he rose up to his full height, just shy of 2 metres, and glared at them. Sara would likely notice an increase in radiation coming off Joel, and Gwen may detect the increase in mass and density that Joel's powers caused.

Matilda, meanwhile, just looked confused and sleepy.

Seras did walk up to Joel at one point, trying to talk to him, even as he emitted his radiation.

The girls proceeded onwards into the aircraft, not liking their treatment one bit.

They sat down in whatever comfortable chairs were available.

<color=brown>"Joel? Do you mind if I ask you something?" Sara said while they were in flight.

 

[Zepherus14]

"Everyone just needs to... zzzz..." Sophia mumbled into her sleep as she leaned over in her chair.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=003399]"No, what is it?"[/color] Joel asked Sara.

 

[Outisakanobody]

"Uh..." Seras said as she seemed to be ignored by Joel and Sara.

 

[Slenn]

<color=brown>"For my memory, what element is it that's emitting alpha decay from you?"

<color=brown>"Don't mind us, Seras. You can go ahead and talk with us if you wish."

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=003399]"Uranium."[/color] Joel replied, before turning to Seras. [color=003399]"Sorry about that. What do you need?"[/color]

 

[Outisakanobody]

"...U-uranium?" Seras said as she stepped away, looking worried and getting distracted from the thing she was planning on saying.

 

[Slenn]

<color=brown>"Hmmmm. The heaviest naturally occurring element. How did it become a part of you, if you don't mind me asking?"

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=003399]"I'm an elemental."[/color] Joel explained.

Spoiler: The Trial

When the trial began, the evidence presented against the group came from a man with green hair and a black beard, that none of the group would have seen. He identified himself as the man running the bounty store, Caomurda Hannearn. Braveer's statements were explained at as him misunderstanding the plan.
Next, the man brought up the disappearance of the two knights that attacked the ship. The group confirmed that they dealt the killing blows, in self-defence. It was then revealed that a portal to the universe Sam was suspected to have been traveling to and from had appeared, after the group left.
The group, having made their case, had the charges against them dropped by the bounty store. Additionally, the group members with bounties on their heads won a few thousand each in general damages, paid by the bounty store.

If the judge attempted to begin proceedings on the charges against Sophia, Caomurda would point out that they had been made in a different universal jurisdiction, thus the UN had no right to perform that trial. He would also state that he would pull down Sophia's poster.

"Isn't uranium radioactive?" Seras asked as she continued to be nervous.

 

[Slenn]

<color=brown>"It is. But its radiation hardly passes through air. The reason I'm able to pick it up is that I can tell when the strong nuclear force loses against the electromagnetic force and an alpha particle is released from its nucleus."

 

[Outisakanobody]

"O-okay...Uh, I just wanted to thank you for...helping me feel better, before. So, thanks Joel." Seras said as she calmed down some.

[color=003399]"Don't worry about it."[/color] Joel replied.

 

[Slenn]

<color=brown>"But I'm not sure what you mean by you're an elemental. Does it mean you're infused with an element on the periodic table?"

 

[ShindoL Shill]

[color=003399]"To be honest, I'm not really certain what elementals are."[/color] Joel replied. [color=003399]"The best way to put it is that they're people with physical properties similar to chemical elements."[/color]

After the trial, Samus walked out of the courtroom, probably catching a few glances as she did so. She looked at the others, giving them a signal to follow.
