"Well, if you'll excuse me," Cale said, "I'm going to go locate my father." With that, he walked into the tower, though he didn't really know where to go.

Stella's face lit up with enough energy to give the sun a run for its money. If the sun had any need for money. Which it didn't . But if it did, Stella stole most of it.
"THIS IS THE GREATEST ROOM I'VE EVER SEEN IN THE ENTIRE WORLD EVER! WHOEVER DESIGNED THIS ROOM IS NOW MY NEW BESTEST FRIEND!"

"Interesting..." Azzi looked around. "Nice place I guess. Of course, the Thundercougerfalconbird clan's castle is equally as nice." He added.

"Did someone say...'new friend'?!" Everyone's favorite main character's sister, Aurora Veralice (just slightly above Sarah, of course), jumped down from the balcony looming over everyone else, landing gracefully on her feet, of course. "It's good to find someone with equally refined tastes!" she cheered, running up to Stella excitedly.
"My mission to inform people of the events went well, thank you." Chancellor Awesome said, annoyed with being so rudely rebuffed.

Stella hopped off her UFO. "Yeah, I'm totally refined and shit."

MEANWHILE....
The Doctor casually leaned against a pink pillar as he watched the maniacs run around gabbing away and chattering.
He shuddered, turned on his heel, and walked right out of the room.
Flashing his psychic paper at the protesting guards, he trooped right past them and straight into the market.
Sighing in relief, he stood amongst the bustling crowd and absorbed the culture, listening to the different accents that all sounded like parts of England, and looking at the local trade goods.
"Mind if I try this?" he asked, pulling a long purple string from a platter and placing it in his mouth. He slowly sucked it down, appreciating the unusual salty-spicy flavor. Plopping two gold doubloons down on the stall, he promptly faded into the crowd, off to wherever he wanted.

A re light started flashing on the UFO. "Hang on a sec, guys." Stella jumped on her UFO and flew away. A few minutes later, she appeared over the Doctor. "Hi, Nurse!" Two claws extended from the UFO and picked him up. She carried him away and dropped him off back in the Tower with everyone. Then she went back to staring at Aurora.

The Doctor stared curiously at the odd spaceship that resembled a Dalek diskship.
Whipping out his sonic screwdriver, the Doctor fiddled with it for a moment, before applying it to the disk. He replaced the sonic screwdriver in his pocket and turned to the bewildered girl.
"Not to worry, I've only temporarily disengaged the inertial dampeners and scrambled the controls. Shouldn't take too long to fix."
He turned to face the door.
"In the mean time, I've got to get to Paris. My good buddy Mr. Sand is calling me, and it must be important."
Without waiting, he ran past the again befuddled guards, and disappeared into the shadows as he moved towards the TARDIS.

The UFO sputtered before crashing into the ground in slow motion. Despite having ample time to jump off, Stella rode it all the way down, screaming bloody murder. The UFO landed neatly on the ground, but Stella made explosion noises with her mouth and threw herself off and landed in a heap.
"YOU MANIAC!" she shouted melodramatically. "YOU BLEW IT UP! DAMN YOU! DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!"
The UFO beeped and started hovering again.

"Alright, now, lets-"
Wizz, Fwing, chugga-chugga
"Get a move on!" the Doctor finished, waiting for the "ruuuuruuuuuruuuu RUUUUUURUUUUURUUUUUURUUUUUU rruuuuuuruuuuuuuruuuuuuuuuuuu. "
Nothing.
"What?" the Doctor exclaimed in protest.
"No no no no, don't do that..."
He went off in a hurry, fussing over controls and trying to make sense of why the TARDIS quite simply would not take off.

"Ah...right." Aurora eyed Stella as she left, came back and left again, an expression of slight confusion on her face, but after a good 5 minutes or so it passed. "Ahem. Anyway, guests, welcome to the Dynasty City Imperial Tower, the second of two preposterously large towers in Awesome Land. With that said...Chancellor Awesome, why are their guests in my palace? I hadn't finished decorating!" Aurora turned toward C. Awesome quite angrily, crossing her arms and tapping her foot impatiently.
"Forgive me, Aurora." Chancellor Awesome sighed. "I found a few newcomers to the country and-" he leaned in closer to Aurora and whispered as he continued. "-they looked very...Suspicious, to say the least. I thought it best if we keep watch over this bunch in the tower. Plus, they wanted to hear Giggles' stand-up."
"Now I'm pretty sure you're lying." Aurora whispered back, rising into the air. She spoke at her normal volume now. "But, anyone the Chancellor invites is surely welcome here. Please, take your seats." Aurora motioned toward several rows of extravagant chairs, each with arm rests, foot rests and reclining capabilities. Giggles was about to obey the command when he was frozen in midstep by some sort of magical force. "Silly Giggles. Chairs are for kids! You get to go up on stage and tell your...'jokes'." Aurora explained.
"Argh...So close!" Giggles huffed, marching up on the stage.

At that moment, Cale and his father reentered the room. They had just finished carrying the meat into the tower's freezer, and had been decently compensated. Upon entering, they saw the stage and chairs.
Mr. Efrun suddenly exclaimed, "I used to love clowns when I was a boy! Their wacky antics would always bring a smile to my face. Cale, how about you take a seat over there, and I'll go get us a room at that inn we passed on the way into the city." They needed the room at the inn because apparently the magic that brought them here wouldn't take them back, and so they would have to go home the long way.
"Umm, Dad," Cale said, "I don't really think that this clown will be very fu-"
"Oh, nonsense!" Mr. Efrun replied, "You'll enjoy it, I'm sure!" And with that, he left. Cale sighed and took a seat.

Still playing the role of a crash victim, Stella hobbled over the row of chairs and splayed herself across several. "Heal me, clown man," she croaked. "Heal me...with the power...of laughter."
Her UFO beeped a few times and settled into a position beside her. She ignored it.

"I'm not exactly sure if this is the best use of my time." Azzi muttered, slipping back into a bit of a serious mood. "Hmmm."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A figure moved silently through the streets, sticking to alleys and shadows as he went. Gree glanced over his shoulder yet again. Hinestly, why did they have to be so careful? It wasn't like any random citizen could hurt him, and he didn't really think -given that this was Awesome Land- that anyone would really care that he was here anyway. But orders were orders.
He turned another corner and came face to face with a masked face similar to his own. "Corr." he said, insantly recognizing the other man.
"Gree. Glad to have you back." the other Shadow Soldier said evenly. Gree doubted that he meant it. THe other members of Havoc squad had yet to really accept him into their squad, ever since Darman was killed in Random World.
"You weren't followed, right brother?" another one, Vin, said, appearing from behind Corr witht heir squad sergeant, Taler. Gree nodded. At least Vin had the decency to act like he was trying. Maybe because He and Gree both came from the same Sect.
"It's about time." A voice hissed. All four members stiffened at attention as Sindri approached. "What have you found?"
"Sir. Aurora is...er, well..." Gree started. Sindri stared at him.
"Yess?"
"Er...planning a party, sir."
"....huh?" Sindri eloquently responded.
"A...party sir." Gree said nervously. "It appears that Aurora Veralice wants to celebrate the victory of Dynasty City or something." Sindri considered this, alternating between angry and laughing.
"How audacious." He muttered. Zais' army had retreated from Awesome Land a month ago, back to Lord Zais' bastion in Random World. At least, all except Havoc Squad and Sindri.
"Be my eyes and ears in this place." Zais had said. "I have no doubt that these idiots will start screwing things up soon enough, and I want to be there to make it worse."
"Right...." Sindri said, an idea forming. "Gentlemen...I hope you know how to party."
THe soldiers all shared a glance. "Uh..sir?" Taler asked.
"Gentlemen....we're going to need disguises."

ruuuuruuuuuruuuu RUUUUUURUUUUURUUUUUURUUUUUU rruuuuuuruuuuuuuruuuuuuuuuuuu.
Crrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeak
"Whoops, wrong party." The Doctor ducked back into the TARDIS, as screaming women flung martini glasses at him.
ruuuuruuuuuruuuu RUUUUUURUUUUURUUUUUURUUUUUU rruuuuuuruuuuuuuruuuuuuuuuuuu
"Ah, here we are!" The Doctor said.

((Assuming he's at the Imperial Tower...))
Stella looked over at the noise, breaking character briefly. "Hey, it's Nurse. Hi, Nurse!"

After Giggles had situated himself on stage, the lights in the room dimmed as one massive spotlight shone on the clown.
Aurora and Chancellor Awesome settled into the front row. Neither of them were smiling. Both of them had arms crossed and glaring eyes fixed on Giggles. Aurora's expression in particular seemed to say 'Don't screw this up, clown.'
"Yea, yea, I got it, Toots." Giggles grumbled at Aurora, seemingly understanding the meaning behind her glare. "AHEM. GLAHEM. GRGRGRGRGHEM. CARCKACARKACARCKAGLAGGAHELMAHEM." After about 15 minutes of obscenely obnoxious throat clearing, Giggles walked up to the microphone and lowered the stand to fit his short stature. After a little more throat clearing, he positioned the microphone directly toward his mouth and began the onslaught.
"Hey, everybody! I just flew in from Really Cool Land, and boy are my arms tired! And boy, lemme tell ya, Really Cool Land has some really weird people. I met this little girl who stayed at her nursery day in and day out, never left the place once. So I ask the girl why she never leaves and she says "Because I want to be a nurse!" Wuh ha! Wuh ha! Wuh ha!" Giggles slapped his knee and urged the audience to laugh. "Eh, eh? Pretty funny, right?"
"Shoot me now..." Chancellor Awesome groaned.

Cale was so stunned by the complete lack of anything regarding humor that he could do nothing but stare in shock.

By now, Stella had all but abandoned her crash-victim persona (indeed, it's possible that she completely forgot what she was doing) and was instead simply laying across the chairs examining her nails. Deciding that the neon pink nail polish needed some touching up, she whipped out a bottle and began lazily applying it.
"Creepy Clown Man isn't very funny," she said matter-of-factly.

"That went as good as i expected." Azzi said dryly, having been unimpressed with the clown from the get-go. "I've seen better humor on a skeleton!"
