The sisters followed along with the man.

"Store it?" Sophia asked, the way she said it, it seemed like she hadn't considered that route before. "You, sure that's really safe to store it like that?" Sounding rather skeptical.

[color=Stereotypical spanish guy who doesn't know how to dance]"Oh, no creo que tengamos suficiente vanadio o molibdeno para que en este momento, la mayor parte de él está atado con otras empresas o proyectos. Tenemos un poco más en el camino, pero tendrían que pasar un par de días, ¿sería bien?"[/color]

"I admit I am unsure, but it would allow you to dump mana when you needed to and allow you extra power in a fight if it does work." Samus pointed out. "If we can find some sort of energy tank, you could try it out."

 

[Slenn]

<color=purple>"Sara, how long do you think it would take you to generate that much of the trace elements?"

<color=brown>"Around the same amount of time if we were to order it. That is if I were to go at a steady pace. Let's get it the easy way then."

Sam would find, this time, that the bounty store was open again.

 

[Chungus]

Finding the bounty store open, Sam opened the door and walked casually inside, with his right hand on the pommel of the sword. Once inside, he looked around.

When Sam entered the bounty store, Elm hovered over to, and landed on the roof of the building, turning off the engine, but remaining invissible.

 

[Zepherus14]

"I guess..." Sophia agreed, glancing down at the ground as she wasn't sure how well that would work out given all the negatives of having a large storage of her mana would mean. "If only to test it... I don't know how much I like the idea of just leaving this stuff around willy nilly like that. Moreover, I think you misunderstand a little as to how magic works, you can't just add more and get more power out of it." Sophia answered back, still visibly going over the positives and negatives.

[hr]

[color=Stereotypical spanish guy who doesn't know how to dance][/color] The man agreed with Gwen, offering a door to an office so that they could strike a deal for the materials.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"I admit I don't understand it entirely. In my home universe, I only knew of one race that used magic, and I never really found an explanation for that either." Samus said, taking off her helmet. "I was making a suggestion. If you think it is a bad idea, I defer to your judgement, at least until I know more about this magic."

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Sam would see the green-haired man standing behind the counter. "I'm going to take a wild guess and say you're Sam. Or do you prefer 'Silence'?" he asked.

 

[Chungus]

[color=edc393]"Word travels fast, I see."[/color] Sam idly commented, looking towards the green-haired man. His voice was audible, as he hadn't muted the speaker since talking to the potion peddler. [color=edc393]"'Silence' is what I'm going with."[/color] He added, having been told to use his codename.

Moving his hand off of the pommel, Sam approached the counter.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

"Very well, Silence. You and your employers have been pretty busy, haven't you?" The man handed over some paper; the dates, times and locations of universal crossings to and from Ultri's universe were written on them.

 

[Chungus]

Reaching out for the papers, Sam missed grabbing them, initially, his tumb only brushing past it. Silently swearing, Sam took hold of the papers on his second try, bringing them closer to his face. [color=edc393]"Sure seems like it."[/color] He said as he read the timestamps, noting some of them were before even he and Desperado arived. [color=edc393]"Out of curiousity; How do you know about all this?"[/color]

 

[ShindoL Shill]

"We have a fancy machine that detects interdimensional portals." the man explained.

 

[Slenn]

 

[Chungus]

Sam hummed to himself, then, after a brief moment, laid the sheet of paper back down on the counter, and looked back up to the man, although this wouldn't be very noticeable with the faceplate down. [color=edc393]"Anyway. Let's get to the point."[/color] He began, resting his hands on the counter, one somewhat infront of the other. [color=edc393]"You've had run-ins with some sort of world-police called XCOM, right?"[/color]

 

[ShindoL Shill]

"None called 'XCOM', but a similar organisation." the man replied.

 

[Zepherus14]

"I don't know how good of an idea it is. If we could hold onto the white mana, that could be useful, but I'm not sure how useful holding onto the brown would be." Sophia answered back. "I'm not even sure exactly how we'd go about trying to contain it in the first place."

[color=Stereotypical spanish guy who doesn't know how to dance][/color]

 

[Chungus]

[color=edc393]"Right..."[/color] Sam responded, nodding thrice slightly. [color=edc393]Guess that'll have to do. They might point us in the right direction, if nothing else. "Well then. Could you tell me how to contact them? My employers would like to talk to them."[/color]

 

[ShindoL Shill]

"The organisation is called the UN. I don't know how to contact them, though."

 

[Chungus]

"Ask them about the trial." Elm instructed Sam over the radio, having been following what was being said. With the helmet's speaker unmuted, Elm's voice would be faintly audible.

[color=edc393]"Right."[/color] Sam responded, then briefly paused. [color=edc393]"Something else. I heard a group of outworlders was supposed to be put on trial by this XCOM. Would you happen to know anything about this?"[/color]
