Me? Well... I- I'm not so sure. I think that I need some time offplanet. I need to think about what's going on here...
Care to join me?

'...Uh, yeah. Okay,' Nalini replied, after a pause. She inspected the portal carefully. 'I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't remotely curious about this thing.'

This is the culmination of years work- at least, i'd like to say that. When the Zurg came to Gaia, and left behind the portal to their homeworld, we sent in some recon and made a duplicate of the device. While we haven't been able to get to the zurg planet, it does allow us to get to several other destinations in both space and time. Travel is instant, though, the first time you go through, you might feel a little cold...

'Hmm, interesting. Thankfully, extremes in temperature don't bother me too much. But how come you've not been able to get to the Zurg homeworld? Or, rather, how come you've not been able to - yet?'

Each destination requires a certain code, or an address, you might say. If we don't know their address, we very well can't go knocking on their door. Make sense?
*He punches in the last of the code, and inserts a key from around his neck into the console, before placing it back beneath his shirt*
Should be ready in just a moment, please make sure not to stand too close just yet...

'Duly noted,' Nalini said, taking a step backwards.

The portal energizes, and the massive ring comes to live, spewing forth energy in a giant bubble, before falling back to itself and stabalizing in a vertical blue puddle
That, is the gate to Terra.
*MK walks away from the console, and approaches Nalini*
Are you ready?

Nanous:[whispers] where am I now?

'Ready as I'll ever be,' Nalini replied, staring hard at the portal, ignoring the other figures around her.

*MK nods to Nalini, and walks slowly into the portal.*

Nalini entered the portal after the Captain, and felt an icy chill blow across her.
'I thought you said a 'little' cold!' she cried, rubbing her arms.

After they both passed through, the energy from the portal arched once more, before collapsing and falling silent, having deactivated. The gate to Terra was now closed.

*Nanous walks out and heads near the portal*
Nanous: where does this go?
*Nanous enters the portal, but shuts off before reaching it*
Nanous:nice way to kill my curiosity!

*Nanous pops a Cigar*
Nanous:I can't believe I would use these Elvish Cigars that are probably expired.
*Nanous lights the Cigar*
