Welcome to Gaia! ::

The cat listened to Mirai quietly. "Well, he kinda is but also in a sense not. He was artificially created but he essentially functions the same way Weapons do. But yeah, that's pretty much the size of it. You can bet they're dangerous." She cocked her head to the side slightly. "Do you....know him?" She asked simply.

"oooh," the cat said as she listened to Mirai. "So you were his partner when he was a sleeper, huh? Wow, I'm sorry that must be hard. Were you...there when he woke up?" She asked as they walked. The area was stacked to the brim with trash. The garbage literally made its own landscape. Every now and then Mirai would be able to spot small tents and hovels made of garbage dotting the landscape. Some even seemed gathered together into small clusters of tiny villages. "Those are definitely the symptoms of a sleeper agent though. And....I hate to be the bearer of bad news but....if he woke up...then that's who he really is." She glanced over at Mirai before looking around from her position on her shoulder. "Though I think...we'll probably have to ask someone how to get out of here. I was running for my life when I got down here so I don't exactly know the way back."

"Ahh...you activated it early," she replied. "Well...it would have been activated no matter what I suppose." She looked at the inhabited hovels when Mirai did. "Well, they might but most of them are regular humans so their chances of being able to do either one to you would be about the same as mine in this form." She looked over at Mirai. "And as for your partner, even if he remembers what he was, it's still a good bet that he won't suddenly choose to become someone he never really was in the first place. No offense; I'm not trying to be a Debbie Downer or anything. Just telling you how it is."

As Mirai walked into the village she would find it strangely abandoned. "Mmm...maybe they're all out scavenging?" The cat asked as she looked left and right on Mirai's shoulder. She sniffed the air but didn't seem to smell anything. Suddenly, without any warning or sensation, Mirai would hear a voice behind her. "Hey there..." it said quietly. Even SC seemed surprised by the sudden voice. "Raow!" She exclaimed in surprise, almost losing her perch on Mirai's shoulder for a moment.



The boy was less than a foot away from Mirai, a smile on his face. "Whatareya doing here?" He asked, his voice smooth and quiet. Mirai wouldn't be able to sense any wavelength emitting from the boy whatsoever. He doesn't have any scent... SC thought in surprise.

"An exit?" He asked, tilting his head to the side slightly. "What kind of exit?" SC blinked but remained silent as she watched the boy, letting Mirai do the talking for the time being. "There's all kinds of exits."

"The farthest "in" the headquarters...?" The boy asked, still seeming to not understand. "What do you mean by "in"? You are in the headquarters..." Sc frowned as she listened to the boy's response. Was he trying to distract them or something? She looked around, making sure to check behind them in case some other person with an invisible presence was sneaking up on them. It looked all clear, but SC decided to keep an eye out while Mirai interacted with whoever this guy was.

"ohhh...so you mean "up" then? Because you certainly can't go down...unless you want to leave. And side to side will just take you to either side. Are you asking me to show you how to go higher into the headquarters?" The boy kept his small smile as he spoke. "That's the only thing I can think of that you mean..."
