Noemi struggled to recall what put her in the technology pod, memories were a bit fuzzy, hazy at best. The only clear thing she could remember was death, and much of it. Death of her enemies...of others like her. Trials.

One hand managed to move, coming up to her head before curling around the edge of the pod and pushing herself up.

Unlike Jack, her focus wasn't on him, it was looking down at her body as she sat up, and how it hurt like she had worked the fields all day long. It would ease with a bath, she mused.

When her gaze did rise, brown eyes to green, they widened and her face slackened.

"¿Es usted un enemigo?" She stuttered out, speaking spanish first with a heavy accent then-"Are you an enemy..." She didn't know if in this state, she could fight again.

"Bah, I got 'er." She was going to trip all the way to the Cove like that, and he'd already thought about it anyway, so he bent down, and swung her easily over onto his back. He waited until he felt her settle before standing back up, giving her a dizzyingly high view. He bit his tongue when Jerry said they were better off with their weapons, because he sternly disagreed, but she didn't need to be frightened by his opinions so early on.

Something unsettling began to blossom within him. He hated that they were taking them younger, and more innocent, every day. Renee would be in one of these pods before he knew it.

He carried her off, his hand resting on Jerry's shoulder, and his normally boisterous mouth going silent, lost in thought.

Face kissing the floor, the girl raised up her head and rubbed her nose which was a bit redder. "Hehehe......" She giggled, making useless effort to hide her embarrassment. Jerry was sharing his precious experience, when she was about to say something - AWHEEEEEEEEEEE - suddenly she was so much taller! She couldn't response but out of reaction randomly grabbed on the nearest thing that helped her keep the balance (which unfortunately was Robert's fur hair). Confirming her stability, she apologized to Jerry first. "Sorryyyyyy for making it so dirty, I-I will wash it!" She promised.

The next moment, when she was still looking at Jerry, she found that the megane guy seemed to have.....shrunk?! She tilted her head, still fluffy from the pod torpor. One minute, two minutes passed...she finally realized she was actually sitting on the Blonde Bear's back!!! "aklfjksdjfklsdjklfsj" She couldn't say anything but fascinated by a brand new perspective of things. Feeling safe, she rested her head on Robert's. Is that what the Big Bear see daily? She was always the one who being looked down upon. When she saw fathers carrying their child on street or in anime, she was longing for it one day, however.....she never get the chance.......

Recalling of past memory suggested that her mind was slowly restoring to normal and clear. "謝謝...." A thank you was murmured when she shoved her face into Robert's soft hair gently like a kitty snug. A wish was granted like a miracle. A few seconds later, she raised up again, with a cheerful face. "Let's go! Adventure and my weapon is waiting for me~!" She ordered her companion.

The dense girl didn't notice Robert's melancholy, her mind was imagining what was gonna wait for her.

The journey to the cover was quiet, so the girl started a topic. "So - what does your weapon look like?" She was curious of theirs and at the same time, a bit worried about Robert, too quiet and frozen, but still a very comfortable and warm mount.

Yup. ******** wetbacks.

"No reason to be yet," he answered briskly, crossing something off his clipboard. "Speak English or otherwise keep your mouth shut. You are currently in Deus Ex Machina, a military facility people like you and me have volunteered for. You have been in stasis for a period of time, so expect the following side effects for the next few days: drowsiness, temporary memory loss, dizziness, vomiting, diarrhea, night terrors, bed wetting . . ."

There wasn't a hint that he was trolling her on that poker face.

"No reason...yet?" She tried to understand, really she did. "I....I'm sorry..." She started to sink BACK into the pod at his words. Kind of like a wounded animal that was getting kicked while it was down.

After he mentioned side effects, she cringed and decided the best course of action was to just...melt inside her pod. Yes.

"Bed wetting..." She squeaked, "I have not even done that as a Babe!" She muttered in her pod. It was very much incoherent spanish mixed with english...She just...

"Where...do I go again?" She didn't even bother making eye contact with him, eyes drawn start at his knee's...cause he was so damn tall.

For God's sake--"If you'd rather, I can close the pod up and let you sleep away another six months or so," Jack with a clinical disinterest in either possible outcome. They didn't need people like Timid Tits McGee here; maybe she'd get terminated if they thought she never bothered waking up.

(( Be reasonable, dear one. She, like everyone else, has come from a particularly nasty experience. ))

Jack took a step forward and crouched over the pod, studying her from head to toe with unblinking eyes as he crept into her space. "From here, you make your way to the Caves," he replied. "The question being if we should really bother. You haven't the guts to even leave your pod."

"No!" She pushed up and waved her hand, "I will get out!" She narrowed her eyes at him and looked around nervously.

"What are the caves..." Her brow furrowed, "I would leave my pod if you were not a giant hovering over it and being rude to me. Sorry." She added immediately after.

"If you would step back, perhaps I could leave my....pod.." She waved her hand and folded her hands in her lap. There was a lot of 'oh I shouldn't say this, he'll get upset' and 'so rude' and it was all toppled with the fact that he was the biggest man...and only one she had seen from her farm.

Ever here that Momma knows best song from Tangled? Noemi's a good example, and your on her list for thug Jack. Giant...thug.

"My weapon looks like a big two sided sword, bigger than me even. But that's nothing." He held out the door, ducking to make sure she cleared it as he walked through with Jerry. "This guy's weapon looks like a TANK GUN. BAHA-"

He was laughing because of the compensation joke waiting to be made... but he never made it. Discretion, and all that.

Riley blinked. Tablet. She was supposed to get a weapon... tablet. What in the living hell was she going to do with a tablet? She needed something heavier if she was going to be part of this, but she let it slide. Wasn't part of their job to baby her and walk her through all of this. "Right." She said, giving a curt nod towards the two uppers. "So how do I get to this room?" She asked, standing up, and walking towards the doors. "Can you show me?"

The level of unimpressed exuding from Jack rose. He did, however, step back as asked. "You have two options: either a tour of the place first, or we can send you directly to The Cave."

It sounded terribly ominous despite his flat affect.

"You will find your weapon there," he continued. "You'll know it when you see it. Or hear it, more like."

Pod duty was new. Peyton hadn't actually been assigned to the pod room before, so when she'd gotten the assignment she'd momentarily worn that deer-caught-in-headlight's look before it shifted into curiosity. She had not, actually, been down to the pod room since she'd awaken herself, and that was almost a year ago. It would be neat to return. Neater still to see things from the opposite side of the glass. So to speak.

She was also pretty excited to have Milo for her duty buddy. He was a fellow Sun, a fellow Power Ranger, and she'd not actually gotten much of a chance to get to know him. Now was as good a time as any.

It was dark when she arrived, and she wondered if it was always this dim. Thinking back, it was hard to recall details on her surroundings when she'd stumbled out of her pod. She remembered the people. Rep's abrasive welcome, Jerry's enthused singing, Tuck's helpfulness. All that stuck, but not her surroundings. Hands in her pockets, she moved slowly down the row of pods, staring at the faces inside, waiting for Milo to arrive.

It was pretty much all the same for Milo; not having been down into the pod room since his awakening so by default of conclusions, he had never been given pod duty before. Someone probably wanted him to sit for a few hours or something and not do anything to the training dummies.

Which he didn't mind really. Getting to see the room again after the few months out was actually pretty interesting, which kind of delayed him from meeting up with Peyton a bit as he surveyed a few of the pods near the door. Sure, there were rows of them but these were the closest ones to the entrance. So, he took his time at first, staring at the pods themselves and the tubes and the faces that could be seen through the thick glass until he finally managed to get himself further down the line.

"Sup, Yellow!" He called out when he spotted her a few pods down and waved. "Been a while, ya? This pod duty stuff seems like it could be fun." He had actually brought a magazine with him. And maybe a few of his lockseeds to play with just in case.

The first thing she became aware of was the beep and humming of machinery around her. It lured her from the darkness, almost like a song. It made her more aware of the pain that ran threw her body. There was a click and a soft wooshing sound that followed and Gwen struggled to open her eyes and blink. The brunette regretted it instantly, the light stung and all she could see where shapes and blobs. She wanted to rub at her eyes but found her arms to be heavy and discombobulated.

How had she gotten there? Gwen only remembered bits and pieces.. There was a trial... And then something about armor? She couldn't be sure but she thought she remembered armor. Trying to open her eyes again, Gwen managed a squint.

...Now where was she?

She turned at the voice, grinning brightly as she lifted a hand in greeting. "Hey Green!" As he approached she held her hand up, fist closed and level, offering a bump. Not something she would have offered everyone, but she figured Milo would appreciate it. As a Sun. As a defender of justice. "It has. s**t, when was the last time," she paused, thinking, then wrinkled her nose to keep from frowning. "Christmas, I think." Not a night she was fond of remembering, but that was neither here nor there.

"I've never been on pod duty," she admitted, thin shoulders rising and falling in a small shrug as she resumed her peaceful smiling and turned her attention back to the pods in their neat little rows with their glowing runs and soft electric hum. "If not fun, it's at least relaxing down here."

She spoke too soon. Something beeped down the row, an urgent little alarm, and Peyton turned automatically to stare towards the monitor of the pod that was flickering at them. "Or not." With a frown she moved closer, peering curiously before it opened to reveal a dark haired girl. Memory reminded her that even the dim light had hurt her eyes, and nothing had been in focus for the first minute or so, so she stood patiently beside the now open pod and made no move to catch the girl's attention beyond a welcome far friendly than the one she'd received.

"Hi. Welcome to Deus Ex Machina." A glance was passed to Milo, brows shooting up in silent question. What were the chances a pod would open barely 10 minutes after they'd gotten there?

It was kind of neat.

Of course the fistbump was returned and muchly appreciated, not just on a Sun level but on a friendly one. (The thought to teach her the Fourze handshake of friendship did cross his mind, as it did everyone. Obviously). "Dude, it has, hasn't it." The brunet sighed as he scratched his cheek, "sucks. We need to hang out more, ya?"

"At least we can for a bit here," he smiled as he made to put his small collection of things down on a nearby desk. His eyes also began to wander about the little area, not only trying to locate some seats but to assess the area. Just in case he wanted to do stretches, a work out or ... something. "Haven't done it either," Milo informed her. He wouldn't mind relaxing, but as she had figured out it wasn't going to be that type of day.

At the sound of the little alarms and alerts, Milo found himself getting rather excited and spun instantly on his heels to their direction. As Peyton might have been taking a more cautious approach to the newcomer, maybe guided by her own experiences of waking up, Milo seemed to take the opposite. He bounded over and waved his hands, "Aloha ~ congratulations on being alive!" 'Cause that's what Szczeosny had greeted him with. Just a little less Aloha.

He then caught the look from Peyton and simply gave her a face eating grin.
