Content: GOLF!
Setting: Starts at Joutenheim outside the city and works itself back in ending at City Hall.

Warnings: Watch for flying balls ;)

"Good morning and welcome to the first annual Genie Golf Classic. It’s a beautiful day just outside the city of Paixao here on the mysterious but equally as gorgeous island. Unfortunately due to legal purposes it is to remain unnamed for the time being so for those of you watching our live feed at home put the maps away and find yourself another vacation spot. I suggest Abu Dhabi, someone needs to bring Nermal back home.

The sun is out and it’s hitting you at total of seventy five degrease Fahrenheit. Wind’s coming at you at three miles an hour, just south east with a relative humidity of thirty percent. Whoo! Hope you brought your sunscreen kids, it’s gunna be a hot one. For those of you who forgot to bring a beverage we do have a stand set up at the checkpoint with both free food and drink. That’s gunna be the sixth hole, just outside the Niflheim gate. Get ‘em while they last. Back inside the domes it looks as though we might be seeing some thundershowers this afternoon with a high chance of belligerent Org. members. Do be careful out there and don’t hesitate to call if you run into any trouble.

Things are about to get underway. We ask that all golfers that haven’t already please report to the first hole for full registration to receive maps, clubs, and more. The game will be underway in a few moments from now. So far we can look forward to seeing such notable personalities out on the green today as President Naja Salaheem of the Salaheem Sentinels and Urd, Goddess of Love. We also have the Doctor accompanied by his lovely lady friends, Jecht, Ivan, and more! Who will you meet on the green today?

Here’s a reminder for all you out there that the winner of today’s game will be awarded our super awesome ultra fantastic secret grand prize. What is it? Win and find out!

Before we begin a quick reminder of the rules is in order. We have a lot of new players with us today so we want to do our best to help play the game as well as enjoy themselves. It also never hurts to refresh yourself. A complete but brief explanation of the rules of the game can be found at the first hole along with all the necessary course maps. To be very, very brief, your objective for today is to get your ball into all the holes on the course using your clubs in as few swings as possible. Count your clubs before you begin; you are only allowed a total of fourteen. Also, remember to play the ball as it lies. This is very important. Respect your opponents and practise good etiquette. Most importantly HAVE FUN!

As a closing note, I feel I need not remind anyone that there is no tolerance for endangering another player’s wellbeing. Anyone who does so will face very strict and harsh penalties by me. If you run into any trouble on the course today don’t hesitate to summon me by either the alarm found on your cart or golf bag. I have several scouts spread out across the course and will also be patrolling the area to ensure safety to all our players.

Right! Now with that all out of the way, get out there, have fun, and buy a souvenir t-shirt!"

By this point the Doctor was grinning from ear to ear. There was definitely no frown here. As the Genie chased after the beetle, the Doctor turned to his companions, laughing and looking just delighted. "It's the Genie."

Alright, so he didn't really regret coming along now. If at all. This was just far too brilliant. Oh, of course there was plenty better things he could be doing right now, but they could wait awhile.

Of course, the Doctor recognized the car too. Brilliant. But what was the Genie planning to do with him? "Uh, Genie! You don't have to..." Words died as the Genie took off after the car, and the Doctor looked back to the girls again, with an awkward shrug. "Well then."

The very moment the Genie went after the car, Jenny couldn't help but give her dad a questioning look at his words, and being the curious person that she was, she couldn't help but ask. Especially when her father seemed so excited about him. What was so great about this Genie? Sure, he seemed fun, but she way her father reacted was as if he was someone well known.

"Is he supposed to be famous or something?" She asked. She was obviously referring to the Genie.

"Famous? Oh, I suppose you could say that," Rose commented with a grin; tongue in cheek as she kept her giggling down at the Genie's antics. "I almost feel a bit bad for the car, though..."

Rose paused, thinking about it, and looked back towards Genie. Hopefully the car would be alright. "Genie's sort of an... icon from Earth, I guess you could say. One of the more popular ones." That sounded fair enough, the Doctor had to agree.
