 Gnome CarA gleaming SUV with a large gnome decal on the side awaits the Gnome Group. The vehicle can comfortably fit up to eight people along with a cooler full of water and disturbingly healthy snacks, several park maps, plus a medical kit. There's also two top of line digital cameras, each with a cheerful note explaining all images will be saved remotely to the Wonder Park computers and after being reviewed, they'll be emailed to each of the group's guests as a memento of their visit.

Steve didn't even look back to see if the rest of his group was behind him, he dove into the car and found his seat and settled into it. He looks around, grabs one of the maps and starts looking over it. "Hmm I don't see anything that says where animals are, I would love to check out the animals to make sure they are up to my standards of being taken care of." He thinks to himself. He rolls down the window and calls out to his group, " Where should we start first?" But upon calling that out he haerd someone yelling for them to go to the convention center he lets out a small groan and leaves his map in his spot and makes his way to the center. Gnomes ride around in style!!!

Steve sides steps around everyone and crawls back into the car and his spot to make sure that none of his stuff has been disturbed. " So where we going first? Do all these places have animals and stuff? Where any animals harmed when making this park? Do we have to get on another boat anytime soon? I don't think I can handle it if we do I might end up like poor Emilia and I'm sure if its a small boat I'll end up being sued by Mr. Wimple because some of it will get on his shoes."

"There will no more boat rides for today. The safety of both the island's residents and its guests is our foremost priority," Wickett assured Steve, waiting for everyone to find their seat. "Ms. Matthews is one of our top handlers, and exemplary of the care provided in ensuring quality, active environments and regular interaction and feeding."
Wickett checked the mirrors.
"It is important to note, however, that the creatures you'll see in this park don't belong to the animal kingdom. Or any of the other kingdoms, for that matter. You'll find that many of the creatures on our tour are biologically impossible. The realms of imagination are...unique. It would be my advice to keep an open mind. ...And to use your seatbelt, please."

Grabs seatbelt and clicks it on, and scribbles in his notebook creatures not animals, biologically impossible?!
"So Ms. Matthews these anim...creatures do they......" he let his sentence fade off. He was a little lost for words he wasn't sure what the realms of biologically impossible creatures could be. He just stared at the back of the heads of Mr. Wickett & Ms. Matthews for a moment before before digging into the cooler for some water while the others find their seats.
Maybe Bear understands this stuff better then me after all he's the one who does all the crazy stuff. Maybe he's found some biologically impossible creatures out there or something. He thinks to himself as he drinks and stares out the window.

"Oh, please don't call them animals, Mr. Steve," Abigail said, frowning at the guest. "They're no more animals than you or I--each and every one of them is just as much a unique individual as any other human on the planet!" Of course, humans didn't typically have fins or fangs or wings, but Abigail didn't discriminate. She did, however, blush and stammer a bit as Mr. Wickett called her one of the facility's top handlers. "Oh, well, Mr. Wickett, I-I--well, thank you, sir, I do try my very best to make sure our residents get the best of care!" She turned back to Steve, fighting hard not to beam at the praise and mostly failing. "Please, feel free to let me know if you have any questions about our residents!"

Mr. Harlan Wimple, Attorney at Law, straightened his tie and stepped into the car. He immediately fastened his seat belt before testing the strength of the latch. When he decided it secure enough, Harlan cleared his throat and removed his glasses so that he could clean them on the front of his brown sweatervest.
"I would like to visit the most dangerous exhibits first, please," he commented to nobody in particular before replacing his glasses, "and if you could tell me more about the safety protocol you have, starting with the boats and then moving to these SUVs, I would be very pleased."
Harlan opened the notepad he'd been given and held his pencil aloft expectantly.

"I'll be sure to call them residents from now on Ms. Matthews." as he continued to stare out the window. He hardly noticed that Mr. Wimple had got in till he started talking. "Well of course you want to go to the most dangerous part first," rolling his eyes " You just want to see how much money your going to make by taking this park to court, right?" He shifted in his seat " Mr. Wickett & Ms. Matthews I'm sure will not let anything happen to us Wimple, for that would be a very bad thing on their part and not look so good to their boss."
"So Ms. Matthews do these residents of yours here at the park, are they able to roam free where ever they want or are the in some type of enclosure with fences and things like that?" looks over to Wimple and whispers " You might want to write this down after all it is part of the safety stuff you know."

"Everyone settled in? My name is Andrew Wickett. You have nothing to fear," except Fear itself, he noted privately, "while you're in my care. There are four main sections of the Park. Monster Mountain, Faerie Forest, Curiousity Coast, Fantasy Fields. The residents are free-roaming within the sectors, although they are not able to travel beyond that. You'll see no cages. They are contained by invisible magic fences, of Mr. Moore's design. Creatures who wander outside their boundaries simply...reappear again inside them. In regards to danger, you know what they say about Curiousity..."
It was difficult to tell whether or not Wickett was making a joke. He was on the whole, very plain, very neat, and very pale. The only thing about him that seemed out of place was a long, metallic ring that covered his index finger. It was sharp, and made him look like he had a single, disjointed claw.
"And we shouldn't like yours to go unsated, Mr. Wimple. There should be a safety manual for the vehicle in the pocket of the seat in front of you. Studies from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety show that large and midsize SUVs are among the safest vehicles on the road. Ours include the latest features. They are regularly maintained."
The scenery was lush, and the path gradually became more sandy.
"But safety protocols are not what all of you are here to see."

Steve is trying to write down everything that Mr. Wickett is telling him about the residents. This is what he was here for after all to learn about how other parks and places take care of there umm well residents in this case. He was happy to finally be on the move and see what this place holds in store.
exits to the C,C.

Emilia was completely out of breath once they entered from the convention center .Her hand is clutching at her throat for air and she's wheezing like a donkey on the hottest day of July. Not to mention that the rubber band in her hair exploded right as they begun to move inside the car. Unfortunately for her, that meant that once against she will be going around looking like an Afro lollipop. With an infuriated sigh at herself, she hobbled into the middle of the car, and uncomfortably kept her arms close to her side.
What a day to begin smelling unfortunate and then forgetting to completely put deodorant on. Hopefully the other guest around her won't die of the fumes that are none as stress sweat.
While the two advisers begin introducing them selves, Emilia had flipped her sketch book open right after clicking the seat belt on. With everything that Andrew Wickett says, She draws it out in a semi animated format. Trying to remember things in this way was much easier for Emilia. Her eyes glanced up to stare at the two advisers carefully right before going to draw the two of them as large gnomes on the page of gnomes she had dedicated to the group.
Mr. Wickett's Gnome incorporates that giant claw like metal on his hand. Emilia stared at that claw fascinated. After all it's The Claw. Who doesn't love claws and their menacing theme song.
She had opened her mouth to suggest going somewhere that would be easy for her to take quick references, but quickly shuts it when Mr. Wimple spoke. Emilia was quite afraid that she may just vomit all over him out of anxiety. And she does not want this to happen at all.
Because he may sue her.
And then might vomit on her from disgust.
Perhaps.
So she had kept her mouth shut the entire ride and continued drawing in the sketchbook for as long as she could. Since they were going into a place called Curiosity Coast.. She decided to try sketching out what she though may be in a sea-like place. The only thing she manages to get drawn is a Chathulu.
Just because it was a cat squid thing.
And Curiosity always means Cats.
And since Mr. Wicket relates this coast to Mr. Wimple... she had slowly turned looked over at him and drew an Anthropomorphic version of him. With a toupee.
And finally a giggle of a sound escapes her throat as she slams the book shut and exits out with the group to the coast.

{Enter from Convention Center} Bear leaned back into his seat after wiggling a touch to settle himself. He had a moment to wonder how these creatures would compare to some of the odder things in the wilderness. Like that slug he had found one time. That was pink. Research had shown it a real thing, a slug, evolved to be as it was. It was still weird. He wanted to see it, but felt talking would slow them down. Mr. Wimple, for one, might find something offensive with anything he were to say. Instead he watched the cartoonish out of the corner of his eye. She really was pretty good, he'd have to tell her before they left this place. He definitely approved of her CLAW reference. His father had done that to him, a game. And this time the car did not put him to sleep. And he was close to a window. He did hop out quickly though as soon as they stopped. {Exit to the Coast}

[ENTER FROM CURIOUSITY COAST
She looked over at Bear and Steve and felt bad for the lack of conversation she had with her group members. But honestly she was horribly awkward. Emilia thought about the question he asked back in the coast. "Hey Steve, Emilia, what else do you think we may see? Or what do you wish we'll see?"
Her hands move down to flip into one of the more used pages. A page she filled with ideas weeks ago when she heard about the wonder park. It's filled with crude drawings of mythical creatures, and look horrible compared to the more recent drawings she has been sketching lately. Especially the mermaid one that she had done without looking at her book.
"... I want to see something I've never even heard of before.. Like that kelpietaur. It was amazing. " Her words were mumbled under her breath, and he eyes are staring down hard at the pages. As if she's really mumbling this to herself, yet loud enough for someone to reply if they really wanted too.

Steve crawls back into his seat and hurries to grab one of the camera's He leans out the window and snaps a few pictures of the Mer-creatures and a few more of the kelpietaur he was intrigued most of all by this creature. He leans back in his seat and puts the camera away and grabs a thing of trail mix out of the snack bag. " I totally agree with you Emilia the kelpietaur was just such an amazing thing to see, he seemed very friendly and curious." He watched as Emilia flipped through her book " those are some very well done drawings you have there." He smiled and threw a raisin at Bear " What about you? what do you want to see?" Entering from C.C.

{Entering from Coast} Bear suddenly went red as he climbed into his seat. For all he initiated the conversation, he was embarrassed about what he wanted to see. What grown man wanted to... Ah they were here after all. "And Ent, I want to see a tree ent." He answered Steve. "Emilia have you ever heard of a tree ent?" he wasn't sure she had, they were obscure, but a cartoonist, depending on her other interests, seemed like they might be one of those who had. It didn't have any historical background after all, it was a video game creation.
