“It’ll go for the Frozen North Area” Rachel soon said to Jenifer. “Fair enough. Thankfully the alteration buildings for that area stand just in front of the temperature boarder so outside of certain mishaps all guests should be safe from temperature related mishaps” Jenifer accepted “As it happens Bus 27 outside is the next heading to and from Frozen North”. “Thanks” Rachel returned as she headed to catch the bus.
Surprisingly after being seated and the bus heading out Rachel was taken aback by how few guests had taken Frozen North as she seemed to be in about a group of 12 on a bus designed to carry 100 people and setup like one of them diner-like buses serving food and drinks with seats divided by tables. Not surprising considering the kind of resort this was really.
“Excuse me? Is it alright we sit here?” this 12 year old girl suddenly asked as she and her mother walked up to Rachel just after the bus started. “Our apologises but we’d like the company” the mother followed. “Sure. Go ahead” Rachel assured with the mother and daughter getting seated opposite her. “I’m Maria by the way. Maria Willows” the mother introduced “And my daughter Misty”. “Rachel Sinclair” Rachel greeted “Not allot of people on this bus is there?”. “It’s a winter cold spot mixed in with places instead catering for summer getaways. Unless your planning on cooling down people normally go elsewhere” Misty insisted while playing on her phone. “Really Misty? Now!” Maria complained. “Just letting my friends know I won’t be in touch again for awhile” Misty assured.
“You’ve been here before?” Rachel guessed. “Spent a week here last year as Chimps” Misty answered “But personally I’m hoping Penguins are among the options here. I mean how cute are they”. “And endangered” Maria stated firmly. “What Arctic creature isn’t these days” Rachel pointed out.
Before they knew it after some general small talk between Rachel and Maria the bus arrived at the buildings standing between the roads and the actual areas with everyone being guided into different ones either alone or in groups. “Rachel Sinclair” this woman wearing a lab coat and overalls greeted once Rachel was inside. “Right here” Rachel responded. “Good to meet you. I’m Gloria and I’ll be guiding you through the process today” the woman introduced “Now here is the starting list of options here in the Frozen North” at which point Rachel was handed a tablet displaying pages detailing the following animals…
Penguin
Seal
Polar Bear
Hare
Narwhal
Snow Wolf
“You called this a starting list?” Rachel inquired out of curiosity. “As in if nothing here strikes your fancy and depending on your knowledge of Arctic creatures more are available” Gloria started “Also please be aware that options like Narwhals are dual-themed being aquatic and all”. “Are they not available in Ocean?” Rachel guessed. “No but the border rules of staying within the Island’s legal area of ocean water still applies as does area borders between locations like here and Ocean or Mythology” Gloria explained. “I see…” Rachel accepted before giving her choice:
