The cafeteria in the temple was a standard sort of caf, with salads as most of the dishes. A steak had been cooked as well, but it looked rather limp and weak. Nothing in particular would be too appealing.

"Well its a pleasure to meetcha Miss Aran. We're gonna be waiting for a few hours, give these rapscallions time to tire out, and then you and Liza will be leading the charge to beat the snot out of them, okay?" he asked, checking to make sure Samus understood.
[hr]
Don looked grave. "you'll probably be stuck here for a while. You and many other people have ended up here without us planning it. We're doing our absolute best to set things up so that you can return home as soon as we can manage though."

Fredrick raised an eyebrow. [color=F87217]"Why would I mind? it's a simple to know, that Mary is a mute"[/color] He said to Seras. [color=F87217]"She can speak however but she chooses not too, if you wanted to know her reasons for that you'd have to speak with her personally....I hope you understand"[/color]
"Well, you go enjoy't." Gideon said with a small smile. After putting his hat back on, he walked out of the room, and pulled the door shut after Franky would roll his ball through. "I'll be having another look around the place. I'll give you a call in five minutes, or so." He added. Walking down the ramp, Gideon would leave the temple unless Franky had some objection.

Upon hearing Don's reply, Etemon frowned. "Stuck here for a while? You're kiddin', right?" He said, phrasing it as a statement, rather then question. "When you say 'a while', that better not be more then a few hours. I'm on a tight schedule here, and ain't got that kind of time to spare."
[hr]
Overlooking the screens, Gazimon saw what would be a fairly normal day in London, with the addition of the layer of snow. With nothing much better to do, he continued looking at the camera feed after double-checking the trailer's systems.
OoC: I'm off.

Fredrick stood up and paced a bit. [color=F87217]"It is, not so much knowing that Mary is a mute but knowing the reason...."[/color] He explained to Seras. [color=F87217]"I'm sorry, but there are certain...secrets...we keep between ourselves, mostly for our own good and protection...I hope you can understand..."[/color] Fredrick adjusted his collar slightly. [color=F87217]"If your excuse Miss Seras, I'm going to take wonder where Mary has gotten too. Until then"[/color] giving Seras a small as he left, Fredrick went to go find Mary.
Mary was still in the kitchen, in mid stage of making Tea....but had somehow fallen asleep in mid action, holding a tea bag in one hand and holding the pot of hot water ready to pour in the over. Just slight snoring would be heard from her and her grip on the items was as tight as a vice.
OoC: Night!

Amelia looked around casually as she noted most of the dishes being vegetarian. She scratched behind one of her horns and smiled a bit, a little happy with the selection. Choosing a simpler dish, she took a seat at a table, keeping mainly to herself and began to eat. She took a curious look around the cafeteria as she ate.
Amelia would see that the monks themselves seemed content to eat silently. The room was unadorned, and there was no sense of hierarchy. If she examined the monks themselves, she would quickly realize they were all bald and had no facial hair except for one.

"They've got some weird missiles. We'll be running dummy targets out for a few hours to see if we can drain their supplies a bit. So you might want to find a nice place to sit and wait."
as he spoke, a strange little rover with a mannequin set on its top was rolled out, and quickly began charging past the police line to the building. A missile Samus might recognize as her own would come roaring out the window, and blow the mannequin up. the little rover quickly retreated back to the police line.
OoC: Gonna be off soon. have to be ready for school in the morning.

Samus noticed the missile strike, recognising the technology. She turned to Quimby, her visor going transparent."I use that missile technology myself. I know how it works. When we go in, allow me to take point."
OoC: I gotta come off in a little while too. Call it here for the night?

Amelia cocked an eyebrow as she noticed the only bearded monk amongst the group. She thought back to the leader who had shown her around and tried to remember his face and if he had a beard. [color=ff7777] ....Maybe the monks here don't require you to shave it off...? ...But then wouldn't more of these guys have theirs? [/color]

"Wow..." Sibylla muttered to herself, quietly marveling at this new information. "Whu are all them other worlds like?"
"Ya mean y'all catch lightnin' and use it ta move stuff?" Sibylla asked, shortly after adding, "Are all city folk crazy, or is it just y'all?"
"I guess so..." She muttered somewhat sadly. [small]"Seems like tha best thing would be if I were just stronger meself..."[/small] She quietly added to herself.
[hr]
Present mode:
Feeling her interrupted sleep catching up to her, Sibylla quietly yawned. Not being able to fight it any longer, she laid down fully on her bed and fell asleep.
...Or at least she had tried, as Rose's outburst startled her as she was trying to rest. Having heard what Rose spat out at Axton, Sibylla sat up and started anxiously groaning to herself. She wrung her sheets between her hands as most of her snakes hovered near her face, only a few keeping an eye on her surroundings.

[color=009933] "Well... the other world are all a lot different from each other." [/color] Rose stated, smiling a small bit more. [color=009933] "Some are really peaceful places where the locals treat you like one of their own. Other world can be ruthless, so dense with plant life that you can barely move, and a lot of deadly creatures ready to nab you at any moment. And, of course, most world fall inbetween those two extremes." [/color] She tilted her head and then shook it lightly. [color=009933] "We don't catch lightning, most cities make their own. Hell, I could make some right now!" [/color]
Finally, noting the sad tone the gorgon had, but not catching on her muttering, the plant girl let out a little sigh and tried to give Sibylla a reassuring smile. [color=009933] "You don't need to worry too much. My team and loads of others are working to keep this town safe, like I'm sure you had someone to look to for protection back in your world." [/color]

"Ya'll kin make lightnin'?! Are ya a wizard?" Sibylla replied to Rose, completely sincere in her obvious amazement.
After regaining her composure, she sighed and looked downwards again. "Nah, not really. Most folks ackch'ly rely on me ta protect 'em back home... S'why I was hopin' I could get back soon."

[color=009933] "I'm not a wizard... You can do this too. Watch." [/color] Rose said, with a bit of a playful tone. She'd start rubbing her right hand on her shirt for a few moments until she had enough static, then would poke Sibylla's arm, discharging the small bit of static into the gorgon. As Sibylla explained, Rose seemed a small bit confused by the statement. [color=009933] ....But how do you do that when you seem to know so little...? ...Maybe she just focused on learn all the things important to her role instead of other things? "Oh... I see. Well... what do you protect people from? Just bad people?" [/color]

"We can only hope. You'll have to submit to a few scans though, so that we could learn your home's location as quickly as possible. Standard procedure, you understand." Don explained to the King.
[hr]
Amelia would recall the head monk not having the fu-manchu the one monk with facial hair was sprouting.
[hr]
The police chief nodded. "Sure thing. Still, we'll have to wait most of a day to make 'em use up those missiles. Set in tight. This'll take a while." he said, and offered Liza a strange looking brew, who accepted it gratefully. "You want some of this? Liza showed it to me last time we worked together, keeps you awake better then coffee."

After leaving the temple, Gideon blew a silent sigh as he looked around for a moment. Okay, so... Let's have a little walk around, then. Slipping his hands into his pockets, Gideon began walking in a random direction, while keeping his head lowered slightly, so that the rim of the head partially obscured his face.
[hr]
"'sumbit to some scans'? Sorry, sonny. Ain't happening. Thing 'bout a contract, you never sign it until you've read the fine print, know what I'm sayin'?" Etemon responded, shaking his head. "For all I know, you people could be the reason I'm here in the first place. Kipnappin' a superstar and filmin' him for some reality Tv show." He added, before standing up. "And on that note, I think it's 'bout time the King rolls on outta here. Uh-huh."

Amelia paused for a moment or two, and kept the monk's facial hair and face in mind as she finished eating. [color=ff7777] ...It's not really my place to care... but that just seems a little suspicious... [/color] After she had finished, she took her plate back to where it needed to go and began to head outside the temple, casting a small frown at her somewhat dirtied uniform.
[color=ff7777] Well.... I'm not actually getting paid for this, so I need to find another job to do then for spending money.... I think I see what Gideon meant then. [/color] The rapier vibrated once again and Amelia shook her head vehemently. [color=ff7777] I don't want to. [/color] Another vibration came, louder than before. [color=ff7777] I just said, I don't want to! Can't you get that through that thick skull of yours!? [/color] The rapier vibrated one last time, softly and in a bit of a lower tone and the sheepgirl just huffed in response.

Axton had settled in for the night while Seras prepared for another night of lonely wandering.
