[Don fights off the droids just long enough to get an idea of what's going on, then goes with them more or less peacefully.]

[Once in the park, he stakes out the arrivals area, making sure all his friends come through the transporters safely - and learning that a few have departed Luceti in recent weeks.]

[Later, he'll establish a position in the highest place he can reach, and given that he's a ninja, that's pretty high. From this vantage point he surveys the park, studying its geography and figuring out each area's peculiarities. He has his journal with him, and anyone can hail that weird turtle guy perching on the tall flagpole above the park's biggest roller coaster.]

[Eventually, he'll fold the journal backwards and tuck it, still open, into the front of his belt. Somehow in the course of doing so he accidentally turns on the video function, so anyone still watching will get a gut-dropping view of how a ninja travels around a giant amusement park. How's that for a thrill ride?]

[Throughout the rest of the week, Don can most often be found observing the "mini-experiments" in Bubble Land, indulging his aquatic side at the water park in Thrill Land, or consuming outrageous amounts of food at the park's various eateries.]

[She's quiet a moment. She never would trust her life to someone such as Don. No one in the village did she really feel like she could.

However, he was better than a human and more eyes out for danger is better.]

You may stay.

[Hey, Don is totally a gentleman. He'll keep his eyes on danger and not on anything else.]

I take it you're not a big fan of the amusement park?

[Even if Don wasn't a gentleman, Xzana would have no problem with his looking. Being a creature who only wears clothing due to human sensibilities. Once the bath is filled she climbs in without taking any of her clothes off.]

I do not find that place amusing at all. It is loud and filled with bad smells.

I don't know about the bad smells, but I agree about the loud.

It is the smell of the tainted water. I could smell it everywhere. There were so many creatures around. I have not seen so many creatures all in one place.

I used to be from a place with even more people. But I was never... among them.

Even more people? How does your world cope with so many people that must feed?

[Uh.]

Hot dog carts and supermarkets?

Hm, dogs can be useful to humans, but I am not surprise that they eat them as well. [They eat the chickens and cows too after all.] What is a supermarket?

[He starts to correct her, but - who knows what's in a New York hot dog.]

Supermarkets. Or grocery stores. Like the one in the village. You can get all kinds of food, but in my world you have to pay for it.

I do not like the store that is in the village. It is unnatural and strange. How do the humans not become sick from all the plassteec that is on the food?

They don't eat it. It helps keep dangerous things out of the food.

Dangerous? Food is not dangerous if it is eaten as it should be.

Humans have very weak stomachs.

Then they should stop using plasteeic to mess with their food. I only become sick if I eat the plasteeic.
