Star's face turned into a scowl. "They arrest people for disagreeing with them? And you still have the nerve to say they're any better than the Edenites? Take my advice, Owen. Ditch them before they pull you into something you can't get out of."
After they were all inside, the panel that had slid open to allow them entrance shut tight again, blocking out the cold arctic air entirely. Star's attire was airy enough that she didn't need to change it, but others, especially those in heavy clothes, would start getting very warm as the temperature reached far more humane levels.

Gwen sighed as she stepped into the entryway, she arched an eyebrow as Johnathan suddenyl felt the heat and whipped off his heavy coat and snow pants, smoothing out his jeans and chinese shirt. Shirley merely took her gloves off, thankful for a more suitable envirorment.

The penguin slapped its fins together in an involuntary clap of approval, but was now caught in a dilemma as the heat became too much. Hot or cold? The penguin flashed green, and in its place stood a blue-skinned woman in a gray uniform, arms crossed over her chest. Cold. Coldcoldcold.
She forced a fanged smile as the others removed their heavier clothes. "May I please borrow a jacket from someone?"

"I've got a better solution," Star answered as she reached over to place a palm on her forehead. "Remember that environmental bubble I used on Pyra? It works both ways." A moment later, a light flickered into existance like an aura around the alien's form. It didn't interfere with her movements at all, but inside it, the environmental conditions shifted to what was more hospitable to her.

Veritas started to protest, but when the atmosphere became considerably more comfortable within the bubble, she relaxed, mumbling thanks.

"No problem," Star answered with a grin. "Shall we continue?"

With his armor automatically shifting internal temperature to make him comfortable, Owen looked at Star quietly for a moment. Forgive me for sounding like you know who here for a moment...but there is much more going on than you know, Star. Who exactly do you think set pathetic little me up with a job within this group? Figure that out and you'll know why I'm there..., he transmitted to Star in his most protected telepathic signal.
"Right, Let's get moving," he stated, banging his armored fists together as he walked.

Veritas abruptly nodded approval, automatically walking faster to take the lead. Then she seemed to forget something.
"We're going this way?" The alien pointed ahead to make sure.

Star shrugged. "Your guess is as good as mine. We might as well go straight, for all the good trying to figure directions out will do us."

(Forgive me if this post is out of line. I intended to post on this earlier, but I kept forgetting tom and eventually, well.... Anyways, I've remembered what I wanted to do in these posts now.)
Gwen blinked, showing a blank expression when she saw the penguin transform into an alien. She then looked around. "But... isn't straight the only direction we can go? I mean, there's not much oint in going zig-zag or something in this place, we'd just be wasting time."
Johnathan sighed, these girls were making him nervous, but he was comforted when a few more males showed up. He cleared his throat and finally said something in English. "If... you don't mind. Could... any of you explain the... uh, unnatural things you all seem able to do?" He asked politely.

Star turned to face him, walking backwards, as she pointed to herself. "Holy warrior." She then pointed at Veritas. "Magiscience military cyborg." Then Owen. "Psychic." Finally, she shrugged. "Don't know anyone else here."

Owen shrugged as he walked, scanning around for anything out of the ordinary. At Johnathan's question and Star's answer, the psion laughed a bit. "Ya know...after all this time I still don't know why I can do what I do...but most of what I've done so far is thanks to this nice armor. Having a shield for once is nice..." he trailed off, knocking against his chest plate for a moment.

"I'm not a cyborg," Veritas grumbled in distaste. "I'm just biomechanically altered."
She followed Owen, but more to the side, making a subconscious effort to stay at least close to leading as she looked him up and down.
"Is your department the main law enforcement on this planet?"

Owen glanced at Veritas, scanning her as well. "No...I'm not from this planet. My department is the one that makes sure people don't screw up the worlds by opening unstable and otherwise dangerous portals and stuff between them," he answered.

To prevent contamination, the alien mentally filled in. Clever. "I see. What hell are you from?"
