Ben has a quick flash back, this entire conversation has been had before. Not always about the same two things but the conversation is like a Mad-lib, but the subject is the only thing to put in.

“Why do i feel as if we’ve had this conversation before?” Ben asks with a smile “Because we have it everytime you try to wriggle out of a Dungeon run” James says “Even this part is well rehearsed” Joe says “So why do we continually go over the same things over and over again?” Paul adds. “because there isnt much else to talk about” As a way to end the routine Ben says: “All too true. Forutnately i can see Paul’s driveway.” This statement doesnt make much sense, but in this small isolated town of Paradise, Paul’s house is a veritable skyscraper. All of the shops and other houses are all small one story buildings. The house that Paul lives in is a large mansion constructed with stone, and made to look like a small Castle. Which it technically is. Only Pauls closest freinds know about the true nature of the Castle’s walls. They were all constructed with an experimental type of concrete and metals. The concrete is near indestructable, it works in conjunction with the metals lacing the towers and structure. The more energy exerted on the wall, the stronger it becomes, for instance: if a bullet were to hit the wall, the area around the imapact and the impact site itself would instantly absorb the kinetic energy and become as hard as a diamond. If say an RPG we’re to detonate on the wall it would leave behind not a smoking hole in the wall, but a large glob of dirt and carbon on top.

There was one added feature that only Paul and his mother know about. And its only because they know about some of the most top secret weapon contracts currently in the covert feild operations. Energy weapons. The walls of the castle are designed even more carefully to protect its occupants from even the most powerfull of energy blasts. It was a rather lucky breakthru, the scientist who accidentally discovered it was probably at the bottom of Area 51 by now while the military developed his invention more thoroughly. Needless to say, there wasnt a safer building in the enitre U.S. except for perhaps a bunker built with this stuff. But there’s a problem, the materials are so heavy that they are incredibly hard to move. But that suited Paul Senior just fine, he wasnt going anywhere. Not now anyway.
