The Mage Star is Complete

[Just some lady]

Staring at each thing she passed with delight, Caprice made her way to the cafeteria in roughly an hour, and walked promptly in without reading the sign.
"Are your in-ter-nal sec-ur-ities deeeetaiileed everyone~? ^_^"

(A Red Mage cook plushie stops in his tracks, nearly spilling the tray of brownies he was carrying)
Red Mage plushie: Is our what WHAT?

[Raleigh]

Well, I never really liked Italy much.

[Snow Dragon]

Well, I never really liked Italy much.

Black Mage plushie #60: Italy it is! (He pushes several buttons and then types a bit)
(A nearby monitor displays a 3-D representation of the globe, then spins it before zooming in on Europe)
Black Mage plushie #76: Target confirmed! Fire the IcyBM!
(Black Mage plushie #60 stares at his partner, his glowing eyes narrowing)
Black Mage plushie #60: We are NOT calling them that.
Black Mage plushie #74: But-
Black Mage plushie #60: NO. They are Ice VI missiles; acknowledge that, or I swear to Hellion that I will cut your eyes out.
(The first Black Mage plushie sulks as he pushes a button nearby, causing a brief rumbling to shake the facility)
*Missile launch confirmed. Impact in five... four... three... two... one... impact.*
Black Mage plushie #60 (grinning as he looks at the blue spot on the monitor): I wouldn't recommend going to Vatican City for vacation. It's going to be unseasonably cold for... oh, I'd say the next decade or so.
Red Mage plushie (Looking impatient): Well, are you ready to move to the teleportation beacon, or are there any other unsuspecting nations you'd like to annihilate just for giggles?

[Raleigh]

No, I'm good. That'll teach Rome to call itself an eternal city.

[Snow Dragon]

Red Mage plushie: All righty then.
(In the next room, a massive platform is raised off the floor by some unknown power pulsing under it, and a thin, metal stairway leads from the floor onto the device)
Red Mage pluehie: While personal teleportation devices are disabled on the Mage Star, the sheer size of the station would make anything slower than teleportation a week-long endeavor. To that end, there are several hardwired teleport stations which connect to various points within the Mage Star to expedite travel. These platforms also act as spawning points, if, for some reason, you die. But why would you die? It's a silly thought, really!
(At a console to the right, another Red Mage plushie finishes forging Rags and Katt's signatures on a pair of waivers, and then gives the other Red Mage plushie the signal)
Red Mage plushie: Very good, then! This is where I leave you folks; your Mage Star tour guide will be waiting on the vessel in question. Enjoy the tour, and may nothing untoward or explosive happen to you!

Red Mage plushie: Is our what WHAT?

At the sight of browniew, Caprice's eyes light up excitedly as she quickly snatched one up and began to nibble on it, ignoring the question for a few moments before finally replying.
"Uhm...I was sent by the li'l plushie guys that said I should detail the in-ter-i-or security of the baaaareeee aaaaxeeee! I duno what that is so I cam here instead...^^"

Red Mage cook plushie: Well... the barracks are just further down the hall. I don't think the cooks can handle security detail. We just make cookies and stuff.

[Just some lady]

Frowning, Caprice replied quickly and severely to the cook.
"Nuuu! Sweets are much more important then 'se-cu-ri-ty'! Dun liiiie!"
Pausing, she spoke again...and then stole another brownie.
"Thanks for the directions~! ^__^"
With a thatric twirl, she quickly span around and vacated the roomful or confused plushies, making her way to the barracks, brownie in hand.

[Raleigh]

*Waits for the tour guide.*

[Snow Dragon]

*Waits for the tour guide.*

Red Mage plushie: Ah, sir, ma'am... you have to teleport to the Mage Star first.
(He points toward the giant floating platform)

(In the meantime, KFC finds another door down near the end of the hall. This one is heavily reinforced, with automated turrets hanging down over it, and has a sign reading +Barracks level 6+)

[Just some lady]

~Uweh? That's not very frindly looking--it needs redecorating~!~
Throwing the door open, Caprice again smiled brightly and adressed the room in general:
"Hellloooooo! I'm here to detail the internal secuuuuuurity! ^__^"

(The various Black Mage and Stormtrooper plushies all stop playing card and board games and snap to attention, rushing to line up)
Stormtrooper #406: Ma'am, yes Ma'am!
Black Mage plushie #22: Ooh, she's a cute one!
Black Mage plushie #79: Back off, I saw her first!
Stormtrooper #562: At attention, you worms! Show the new commander the proper respect!
Stormtrooper #600: Besides, she has a wedding ring on, you saps.
Black Mage plushies: Awwww...

[Raleigh]

*Uses the panel to teleport to the Mage Star.* Ugh.. artificial teleportation is still disorienting.

[Just some lady]

Not understanding the source of all the whispering, Caprice happily entered the room.
"Sooo...what am I s'posed to do~? ^_^"
