Over the hills and through the woods

"Morning," Liao says, yawning, and stretching hugely.  "Where's that noise coming from?"

[Halbarad]

"Dunno," Phil mumbles. "Let's find out."

Covering a yawn, he grabs his backpack and heads out of the guest room in search of the origin of the racket.

[Dracos]

Leading downstairs, Phil found the noise coming from a machine that the professor was working on.  It looked sort of canon like.

Liao peeks at it over Phil's shoulder, but can't really tell what it is.  "Is that ... delicious?" he asks Phil cautiously.  The table made awesome donuts, after all.

[Dracos]

Phil's eyes don't take it to be something that does that as far as he can tell.

[Halbarad]

"I don't.... THINK so," Phil replied hesitantly, taking a few steps closer to the machine. "Unless it shoots food, but I don't think it does."

[Zenthor]

Jade edged closer to it, avoiding the cannonmouth.  "It looks... shiny.  Not as cool as the rail gun, but..."

[Dracos]

"Eh?" The professor turned around, finally noticing them.

Dracos

[Zenthor]

"What... is that?"

[Dracos]

"It is my latest creation in the field of rapid global transportation via explosive means." He nodded.  "The ManaCannon."

Dracos

[Halbarad]

"Transportation... via EXPLOSIVE means?" Phil's eyes got rather wide. "How do you do that?"

[Dracos]

"Want to try it out?"

[Brian]

Liao blinks.  "I'll jog," he says after a moment.  He didn't know what the thing was, but obviously he needed to get better at moving his friends around if a funny-shaped pot was better at it than him.

[Zenthor]

Jade likes explosions.  Jade really really likes explosions.  But not when she's at the center of it.  

"Uh, no thanks, I'll pass," she says quickly.

[Dracos]

The man turned to Phil, the lone scientist of the group.
