Samus looked the card over, not liking what Wheaton said. "So we're trapped here, being watched and used as troops by you?"
"You're welcome." Gideon casually responded to Franky before looking back to his own card, raising an eyebrow upon seeing the picture. Either this is some fancy photo editing, or...
When Wheatly explained the card's functions, Gideon laid the card down, and looked towards Wheatly as he talked, frowning when he finished. "'When we need you', what's that supposed to mean?" He asked, not liking the implications.

Amelia blinked as she noticed the picture on her card. [color=ff7777] ....When did they take this....? I don't remember them saying to sit down at all... [/color] Hearing the questions from the others, she stood back and listened, stowing the card away in a compartment of her skirt.
Wheaton seemed surprised at the anger. "We need a way to call you if we find your home, or find something that we need to inform you about! The red summoning is only if you commit heinous illegal actions, or we suspect you're in danger! We would never force you to fight!" he seemed so flustered by the outburst that he forgot to answer the question about the pictures.
"Hmm. Alright. The way you worded that, I got other ideas. I'd say that's not entirely unfounded, given we were called to clean up a mess yesterday. That, and that it'd wouldn't be the first time something happened that I didn't agree to." Gideon said casually with a shrug. "Anyway. Any idea how long it'd take before we can all go home? And how'd you get these pictures? Photo editing?"
"You could have worded that differently." Blondie said to Wheaton calmly.
"Uh, hello?" Axton said, looking around the room to see exactly what he could see.

Franky was about to explain their side as to why there was the reaction as there was but Gideon beat him to the punch. "Hey save some things for us to say to the man Gideon." He jokingly added.
Wheaton took a breath, trying to recover. Sarah stepped forward. "Your pictures were computer generated. And you've already been informed on the time it takes for returning home. Now, we need to lay down a few rules for you, to ensure you aren't conned horribly. Unless you have any objections?"
"We'll probably have to deal with them later on anyways, so might as well know ahead of time." Franky stated, scratching the side of his face. He then looked at his card, rather surprised that they could computer generate this in some respects, since that meant they could simply just make these IDs whenever they wished, but now was not the time for that.
Axton pulled out an assault rifle and started walking over to the green woman, making sure to put the paper in his pocket.
Though the man was walking forward with his assault rifle, the woman seemed not to be phased by it all that much. [color=009933] "Hello there, sirs and madam." [/color] She greeted both Axton and the male/female duo that walked up. [color=009933] "When you all appeared here, you all had papers, correct? Could you show them to me?" [/color]
On closer inspection, the woman had raven black hair, tied up into a ponytail and a red rose in her hair just above her right ear. She wore a simple white short-sleeved blouse, exposing a bit of midriff and black jeans. Her exposed skin seem to have things like vines growing on her skin. Her golden colored eyes scanned the trio in front of her carefully.

"Sure thing miss." Axton said as he dug into his pocket for the paper, not taking his eyes off the green girl. He then handed it over to her. "So, can you tell me where this place is? Or what this place is?" he asked.
[color=009933] "Ah... group 8001..." [/color] The woman replied, sighing a bit as she handed the papers back to to their owners. [color=009933] "This is a holding area for people who wish to obtain a WAOA immigration visa. Here's a pamphlet on the situation, provided you've come here by accident or purposefully." [/color] She said, handing out the brochures to everyone. It would briefly outline things about the multiverse and what the WAOA is.
[color=009933] "However, I'll need information from all of you: your name, your weaponry, diseases or any 'special/unusual' conditions you may have. We're a very accommodating organization here, but we need to know how best to accommodate you all and hopefully not disturb others. I trust you'll understand." [/color] She explained further, sounding very rehearsed. Her eyebrow cocked slightly as Axton kept his eyes on her, but she said nothing on it at the moment.

"Alright then, rule 1. Never agree to any deals without seeing a person's card first. We have a couple conmen who like to trick new arrivals, and if you don't see their card, you can't be sure we can re-secure your belongings if you lose them. Its pretty much the only sure fire way to shut a con man down." sarah explained, holding up a finger. she held up a second. "Number 2, magic and technology don't mix well. You take a piece of machinery more complicated then an old western revolver into a magical enclave, the machinery will spaz out and suffer up to and including the possibility of exploding. There are a lot of places where magic can ruin a tech head's day, so your maps will mark the zones where using tech isn't the safest thing to do." she held up a third finger. "Don't be quick to judge, and don't be quick to assume its illegal. We do allow, to name a few, fight rings, assassination contracts, street race contracts, dark magic using, bounty hunting, and gun running. Don't hesitate to report it, but don't try and break it up. Might be that fight ring you found is completely legal and documented. Don't assume, as well, that a vampire or werewolf is inherently evil. We have a large number of good citizens who just so happen to be vampires or necromancers. nothing wrong with that, as long as no laws are broken, no need to worry about it." Sarah sat back. "I can talk about any of the subjects you guys might want to hear about. better to ask and be answered, then not and be stuck confused."
