Re: Take a left at the Milky Way (IC) - Part II
"I have that kind of power, but not that kind of power. Meaning that I have that level of power, but I don't have the specific ability to teleport people forty miles away. I usually just take the bus or walk or let Haruhi take me there. I don't like letting Shinobu take me places because he's a crazy driver and crazy pilot. You know, this one time, he started flying circles around a mothership just because he could. Of course, part of it was to test out the mothership's warp bubble, but he didn't have to go as far as racing it."

Re: Take a left at the Milky Way (IC) - Part II
Hikari looks rather disappointed. "Oh. Well... we need to get to the contest in about two hours I think. Plenty of time, really, but..." She pouts. It woulda been so cool to teleport there!

"We can always get Aoi to drive us. He probably doesn't have anything better to do. But he always claims he has something better to do even though it's pretty much the same or worse. Maybe he just doesn't like doing things for other people. He'll probably be a much nicer person after his metamorphosis is finished and his body stops screwing with his hormones."

Re: Take a left at the Milky Way (IC) - Part II
The sign is indeed official. The area of the arena is far outside the outskirts of town. There are no cafes, but there is a greasy spoon diner serving pancakes and fried eggs.
The diner isn't particularly busy, and most of the people there appear to be locals. Blue-skinned, five-eyed locals.Last edited by UglyPanda; 2009-08-14 at 04:04 PM.

Miranda exits the hotel through the elevators, looking around and trying to get somebody's attention that was panicking earlier. "Hey, what's the motivation for your impromptu and poorly funded musical?"Spoiler

Clearly they don't understand it either. Someone hands Miranda a hat and a T-shirt, both saying "Panic Party 5354 - Sponsored by Made for Maids."
5354 is apparently the year according to this planet's calendar.Last edited by UglyPanda; 2009-08-14 at 04:51 PM.

Ashley
Ashley sets Shizune down gently then converts her mecha over to ground vehicle mode. Before climbing out dressed, she tells her mecha "good job angle, now we just have to stay alert."
outside:
"Well at least this place is close to the arena and is serving breakfast. Why didn't you wake one of us up before you left?"

Re: Take a left at the Milky Way (IC) - Part II
Hikari hmmms a little bit, and she promptly calls Aoi on her commlink! Assuming he's up and awake at the moment. "Ummm... Mister Aoi? Are you there? Do you think you could give Yuki-chama and I a lift to the arena when the competition starts? We don't want to be late..."

Aya
Aya is still conveniently already in the shuttle. She just rebooted and has no idea of what is going on except there seems to be a huge party.
She would check it out in other cicumstances but after the arena, she feels she had enough contact with a compact crowd for a full week, so she just stay in, improvising new verses for the panic song she overheard.
♫Panic Panic !
We may seem manic,
We're screwed
No way to elude
So let's just -PANIC !♫I'm sig'ing in the rain, just sig'ing in the rain....

"Please don't remind me, I can't get it out of my freaking head."
"If anyone wants to go anywhere else today, this is your last chance to tell me."
"Next stop: Gravy Canyon!"
Gravy Canyon
A large plot of land has been painstakingly terraformed into what appears to be a desert. A number of plateaus and mountains can be seen from a distance.
The canyon itself is huge, larger than the Grand Canyon on Earth. At the bottom of the canyon is a very dark colored river, flowing swiftly and wildly.
A number of tournament officials are sitting under a large tent near the canyon.
Five men approach the tent, all wearing cowboy hats and holstered revolvers. One is wearing a duster and repeatedly plays the same few notes on his harmonica, over and over again. Another is dressed all in black and has a mischievous mustache. The third is rather scruffy-looking and is drinking sloppily from a canteen. The fourth is older than the others and wearing a poncho. Finally, the last one is wearing very thick glasses and smoking a cigar.

Gravy Canyon
<I guess it's time to divulge the rules.>
<You will have the day to make a sandwich, get across the canyon, and be judged.>
<It sounds simple, but here's the catch: No electricity is allowed for this battle and you are only allowed to use the ingredients we provide for you. If we catch you doing either, you will be disqualified and the win will go to the opponent.>
<That is all. See you on the other side.>
The judges board a shuttle to head to the the other side while four camera crews stay behind. Another tent is set up, it's filled with dried and heavily salted meats, unappetizing bread, and dried beans and peppers.
The opponents load up what they can into saddlebags and attach the saddlebags to what look like very large coyotes, about the size of horses.
Shuttle
Reed, are you sure you don't want to head somewhere else? We can visit Nephim Lunar Land.Avatar by Serpentine

The simplest way would be to go down the canyon, cross the river, and climb up the other side.
The fastest way would be to go over the canyon. How is something Shizune isn't sure of.Avatar by Serpentine

"Yeah it also means we've been stripped of our weapons to defend Shizune with and she was attacked once this morning already."
Ashley non the less unloads her mecha and drops her chainsaw inside to be secured.
Whispering to shizune, "Just start making the sandwich right now. I am going to get some hang gliders so we can fly across without electricity."
