By Narrikian standard, Allen was well over legal age of ownership of most technologies. This meant he could carry a weapon, vote in polls and do a lot of other stuff that required legal rights. Allen had plans however and those did not involve the Narrikian Empire. Fortunately, the plans could be used and invented and engineered. For he had not spent all that money on having scientists examine Panther Prime for nothing and soon hoped that a return would come on his investment. Arriving out of the Gate Way Teleportation Vortex that he had created on Teffilin to lead to this world, Allen held out his hand. A stretch hover limo appeared. Two identical men, clones of himself appeared one of which would drive while the other sat in the back and guarded him. They would drive around until a city was found or something in which Allen could get to work to get a home for himself. First and foremost a base of operations would indeed do him a world of good, since after all if he was to get to work on Panther Prime and remake it into something useful he would need a base.

So this planet had checked out. There was no martial law, and once he applied for citizenship here and was successful it was his personal doubt and opinion that Thel would not get involved in things outside his jurisdiction. Yes, technology could be used and built up and modified and altered and enhanced in order to create what he needed. So, he would have a lot of work to do in the coming days and might even need some help from the population of the planet.

Fortunately for Allan he was fast approaching the capital, as he came closer he zoomed past the red fields of Fioa's grass and into the more paved over areas. He was passing various buildings which skirted the city, some of residence some of business.
As he did approach the capital he would have noticed signs noting the speed limit and then eventually he would reach the gate of the walled city.
He was stopped by a cat-kind Fioan man in an official uniform.
"Welcome to Fi sirs, what is the purpose of your visit?"

Looking over at the guy in the official uniform after rolling down the window of the hover limo Allen sighed and pondered over what he could say. Finally settling upon what to say so as not to offend the person and also to expedite them on their way as Allen had much more important things to do than sit around and debate with someone in government.

"I am here on a sort of business venture. And after that, a bit of leisure."

This much was indeed true, as Allen was here for business. Just not business that should involve the planet if it worked correctly. Assuming he could accomplish what he came to do. You see he had come here to meet with the representatives of several companies and to acquire their services for something he had in the works that would change the technology of the galaxy for the better.

"So may I go through?"

The limo had come to a complete halt, as one of his clones adjusted the cruise control to match the speed limit.

King Jeebus · « **Reply #3 on:** November 27, 2011, 04:36:48 PM »

The official wrote something down and handed Allan three electronic tags "Please carry these at all times in Fi. If you are scanned and do not have one you may be arrested and at the worst executed if you are deemed a threat." He sounded bored "By entering Fi you agree to abide by all Fioan laws and sub-laws pertaining to the capital including but not limited to Sub Section 8 of the Fioan Post-Plex Precautionary act. Ignorance of the laws will not be tolerated as an excuse."

Placing the tags in his pocket, and on his person, Allen looked at the guy for a moment. What exactly was the Post Plex Precautionary Act? Sure he knew what Plex was, but he did not know what the act was that the person was referring to. Today he was supposed to do two things, one meet with those execs and have his research finished so he could say he tried his hardest to bring back that old legend. Two, find a home and buy it here on this planet with some credits. "Will you direct me to where I may obtain a copy of the Post Plex precautionary act and the other laws?"

King Jeebus · « **Reply #5 on:** November 27, 2011, 04:44:53 PM »

"If you wish for directions please find someone willing to give you them. Move along please."
The gate opened before the limo into the white city of Fi. Hover-Vehicles flew through the sky as many tourists and citizens alike were going about their business.

Zero · « **Reply #6 on:** November 27, 2011, 05:23:07 PM »

Allen looked at his watch and realized something. Now he had been delayed for too long and would lose the down payment he had made to rent that hotel room for himself. The guy outside had taken up too much of his valuable time but if he hurried but kept to the speed limit perhaps they could make it to the business meeting on this planet. If not, the entire trip here would have been a waste of time. Quite a flop if he did not hurry, so Allen ordered one of his clones to go the maximum speed limit possible within the city, and hurry to the meeting point. There was no time to delay, at least not anymore of it today.

King Jeebus · « **Reply #7 on:** November 27, 2011, 05:24:51 PM »

Unfortunately traffic was NOT on Allen's side. He had arrived at rush hour in Fi.

Zero · « **Reply #8 on:** November 27, 2011, 05:31:21 PM »

Scowling and muttering something about idiotic traffic needing to get the heck out of his way, Allen contemplated the pros and cons of using magic to simply teleport the limo around the traffic. This would not work however in practice and was just something he had thought of to speed him up. Okay, time to move some of the traffic out of the way and so he looked around in his limo for that tool he had brought. Not finding it, he went to the horn and began to honk at the driver in front of him. Definitely needed to hurry now, as he only had 10 minutes to get there. Wait, why couldn't he teleport? Oh right, teleportation might be against the law here.

Just then, police cars zoomed past him followed by a diplomatic limo with an odd black flag with a blue triangle. It went about a mile ahead of him and the traffic, and turned into the Capitol buildings parking lot.

King Jeebus · « **Reply #10 on:** November 27, 2011, 05:42:07 PM »

The diplomatic limo was greeted by a rushed looking Dog-kind Fioan diplomat in a striking blue suit. He approached the limo calling out "Lord Delta, I assume? We've been expecting you."

The traffic for Allan had finally let up.

Zero · « **Reply #11 on:** November 27, 2011, 05:44:44 PM »

When the traffic finally, let up after making him late for his appointment Allen decided he would have to go even faster if they hoped to make it on time. The clones obeyed him and sped up, hitting the throttle and maxing out the gas pedal until finally they barely reached their destination on time. The ware house district was where they were headed and that was because Allen was to meet with the owners of the companies that would be building his device soon, so yeah Allen had his own way of getting things done. Running inside the building once the car came to a halt, he hoped he would be on time to meet with the people.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #12 on:** November 27, 2011, 05:55:39 PM »

The black tinted windows rolled down as a familiar face was revealed. "Yes... I'm here on a social call with the king."

King Jeebus · « **Reply #13 on:** November 27, 2011, 06:09:35 PM »

"Sadly the King is still at the P3C" The diplomat informed "I'm sure if you come into the palace however we can set up a video conference?"

As Allen's limo suddenly sped up, it crashed into the hovercar of the driver infront. Both hovervehicles shorted out and began falling to the ground.
As they fell they were caught by an officer in a CREATURE Class suit and placed upon the ground.
First the officer checked into the driver of the hovercar who had unfortunately died from the impact.
He approached Allen's limo and got the three out. "Can you tell me why you decided to speed and subsequently kill a Fioan citizen?"

Zero · « **Reply #14 on:** November 27, 2011, 06:15:02 PM »

Allen sighed and looked over at the officer. One of his clones began to speak on his behalf. "Sir, I was caught in traffic and have been for the past several days planning meetings and what not, all of which would have come to fruition today had I not been caught in traffic. I did not mean to kill the Fioan Citizen and will make amends to his family or friends however I can, even with a jail sentence or whatever is needed. But I think this might help...." With that Allen walked over to the body and used his magic sense for a moment to determine something. Yep, the spirit had not been picked up by the reaper and so he withdrew his power from one of his clones, and transferred the spirit of the dead fioan into it, morphing the body to be like the old one sans any wounds.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #15 on:** November 27, 2011, 06:19:44 PM »

"Of course.. but that's not why I'm really here now is it. " he hands the man an Embassy paper with a diplomatic order to see the Capitol Districts Commander.

King Jeebus · « **Reply #16 on:** November 29, 2011, 09:36:28 AM »

"Oh! Of course Lord Delta" The Diplomat took a step back and motioned for Delta to follow him into the palace.

The second any of the clones of Allen stepped forward the officer's Multiblade became a sword pointed straight at him "Not meaning to is not an excuse for murder." He growled, a poor citizen had been killed because of his man's impatience.

Zero · « **Reply #17 on:** November 29, 2011, 09:38:59 AM »

One of the clones concentrated at the thought of Allen, and the clone suddenly fell over dead. The spirit of the dead citizen would be pulled into the clone which would then reconfigure to be an exact duplicate of the original body the citizen had once inhabited. Therefore the revival could take place without them getting close to the body, but the one in the creature class suit could now see a tired look on the face of Allen as if he had used some powerful magic at his disposal for something.

"I hope what I have done, in reviving the citizen makes amends."

If not, Allen would accept any penalty that they would issue out, even banishment from the planet and being barred from completing what he was working on here. True it might set him back extremely, and cause him to have to pay even more to have the thing created but it would be well worth the cost. After all he had tried to revive the citizen but if that did not work perhaps he should just face judgment. Death would be the one penalty he would not accept.

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #18 on:** November 29, 2011, 12:06:26 PM »

Delta follows him in the palace. "I'm terribly sorry for the intrusion, this is a matter of national security."

King Jeebus · « **Reply #19 on:** December 01, 2011, 06:05:53 PM »

"It is not my place to deal judgement. You will be detained until your trial in..." The Multiblade became a data slate, he tapped on it a couple of times and read from it "One week from now. The maximum punishment for Manslaughter on Fioa is execution however you clearly have tried to make amends." The noted the revived Fioan who looked really quite confused. He brought out a pair of AM handcuffs "Now please dispel your clone and submit."

The diplomat led Delta through the palace which was currently decorated in lavish Reds and Golds "No no, the King did decree your faction was welcome upon the planet afterall."

Admiral Regis Hermitage · « **Reply #20 on:** December 01, 2011, 06:53:15 PM »

"Of course..." he continues to follow him.

Zero · « **Reply #21 on:** December 04, 2011, 02:03:49 PM »

Obeying the directive of the officer as it was the right thing to do, and Allen did not wish to have to battle the officer, the clones all were dispelled except the one who was the new body of the Fioan which he no longer had control over in the slightest. His hands extended outward for the AM-Cuffs, but he knew that this would probably lead to his execution or at least ruination of his plans. Good thing he had left some security. Security in the form of a lone copy of his ideas and plans for Panther Prime to become something newer that was more advanced. "Very well, I will not attempt to make a scene."

King Jeebus · « **Reply #22 on:** December 04, 2011, 02:09:14 PM »

"Good lad, thats going to help your case." He put the cuffs upon Allen's wrists and teleported them both to a secure AM cell "You have a phone call if you wish to make it. Please make yourself comfortable. The guards here will give you whatever you may need."

Zero · « **Reply #23 on:** December 07, 2011, 11:15:25 AM »

Remembering the cuffs were on him, and that he was in an AM field, Allen frowned and remembered that he had been locked up. Drat. Coming to this planet had been one of his greatest mistakes and ones that he should not have made. Likely the people who he was supposed to meet with now would never work with him, thus his project would have to be done by someone else and some other group unfortunately. It would also ruin his credibility to be arrested at all, which he had been and when news of this got out his idea of building anything would not work. However, he would be prideful and not use the one phone call. Since it would be monitored, it would ruin the point of the call he would make anyway.

"I won't need a phone call...."

King Jeebus · « **Reply #24 on:** December 07, 2011, 11:19:27 AM »

"Okay then, your trial will be in one week. As you are not a convicted criminal you will be treated slightly better than one, therein you will be allowed access to basic entertainment and food." The cuffs disappeared " Any magic you try to use however will be suppressed. Sadly you will not be allowed to leave until after your trial."
