Samuel cautiously approached the clearing. It was obvious the light signal was meant for him and perhaps any other 'Childs of Earth', or at least it could be a point of interest. Either way, he had to check it out, but he needed to be careful in case he ran into a bunch of hostiles. Through the foliage, he spotted an old man and two people who looked out of place: A small girl, and an awkward guy. The way that made them stand out the most was how their clothes were similar to that of Earth, yet unfit for their body. Now he thought about it, he realised his own clothes were a bit tight. Sure, he was always a bit longer than most people, but the extra muscle mass got his own T-shirt and jeans to the brink of ripping apart. Making sure he didn't see any other suspicious figures nearby, he slowly walked out of the forest into the clearing. [color=ed1c24]"I guess this is the welcoming party, hmm?"[/color] He said. [color=ed1c24]"Not that I expected some kind of cake, but still a bit disappointing."[/color] He said. He had a few rules for himself when he was still a game squad leader. Two of them he applied already, and another he applied now as well: Before making contact, gather information. This counted for ally, enemy and area; Prepare for the worst, hope for the best. If you assume everything is against you, you will be prepared if it actually is; Especially with the first contact, don't show weakness like fear or unnecessary doubt. If you do, not only will your squadmates doubt your judgement, but also will a good enemy be able to exploit it in their advantage. He then turned to the two people who were out of place. [color=ed1c24]"I take it you two were brought here as well? I guess we are in the same situation then."[/color] He said. Making allies this fast was a good plan, although he would've prefered someone with more experience of how this world worked. Then again, if they got the same gift as he did or similar, he didn't want them on their bad side. At least not for now...
