"Gaaaaah....monkey boy...I outta shove my FOOT right up her.."
Ryouki continued his string of curse as he went to his bunker to grab his remaining stuff from the ship-which was pretty much just a suitcase filled with clothes and a random toothbrush he really didn't trust too much anymore. Fuming over Dusana's evilness and her nerve to assign him to THIS of all things, the black-haired boy walked with the suitcase slung over his shoulder to the hangar, ignoring the sneers from fellow officers that had gotten wind of this 'transfer'.
'Well...I guess at least I'll get to keep watch over that girl....Whatever they did to her can't be good.' he thought, wandering around waiting for their departure.

((Hehehe!! xd ))
Rain stared in the vicinity of someone's upper chest/collarbone area, since she was mostly spacing out at the whole "Oh, no! I almost smacked into someone" deal. Slowly, she looked up at just who it was she almost had an accident with. To get a better view of their face, she took a step back.
It was a boy. He had silver hair and bright green eyes, which curiously didn't seem to have pupils. He appeared to be about the same age as her and stood about half a foot taller.
As Rain stared up at him with her shocked expression, he stared back down at her with no extreme expression.
((Hehe... guess who it is!! xd ))
Once Dusana and Daia were in the room, Dusana called in the two guards. She ordered them to carry the girl along with them. "Be careful with her," she said. "She's more important than you two will ever be."
Dusana and Daia walked out of the room and once the two guard caught up, they walked towards the hangar. Daia had split off to retrieve her bag from her room. She met up with the guards and Dusana in the hangar.
"Now that we're all here, let's go. I see a car's waiting for us." Dusana walked down the walkway and got into the shot-gun seat of the car. Rain was placed in the back in the middle and Daia got into the back next to her. Ryouki and Daia's bags were put into the trunk. When Ryouki got into the car, the vehicle sped off and headed down the streets towards the Foundation building.

The ride through the city known as Joy Divisions headquarters was quiet. The car moved slowly down the streets, careful to avoid the damaged areas of the roads and washed out paths.
As they approached the wall that surrounded the Novak Foundation Daia looked up with an eager expression. Pino had said he would be there to met her. She hoped that that Colonel Dewey might be there as well. It was always a rare and wonderful treat to see there leader.
As the gates opened she stared up at the massive towers of the Foundation. It rose high into the air. Flood lights made the bright stones of the stucture shine against the dull lifeless rain clouds above it.
"They'll be ready to unload Rain once we reach the doors." Daia said aloud.
When they pulled up to the doors they found this to be true. Three figures in full body suits stood around a gurny and moved to load Rain onto it.
Behind them stood a tall woman with blond hair. It was pulled back in a long pony tail that laid over one shoulder. In one hand she held an umbrella over her head. In the other was a radio. A white long coat simular to Dusana's hung loosely on her. An Id badge adorned the front pocket of her coat. The expression on her face was one of deep interest but also told of a stone heart. Her eyes watched Rain causiously.
"Good work Daia." The woman said coldly.
"Thank you, Professor Marcius." Daia responded and let her eyes play across the ground in front of the woman.
Turning to Dusana the professor continued,"And you major Dusana. I thank you as well. We at the Foundation are very pleased to have our little Rain returned to us."

Dusana nodded at her. "I'd like to know what we are to do with the LFO," she stated. "Currently, it is back on our ship. What would you have us do with it?"
Dusana looked around at the building while she asked the question and waited for the answer. It had quite a spooky vibe, and the floodlights just added to the spook factor. She casually glanced over her shoulder to see if Ryouki was following behind, and then took a glance at the seemingly lifeless body known as Rain on the gurny.
Special news bulliten, straight from where ever the heck it is Rain's mind went to. We bring you the update just as it's still going on.
Her eyes moving around in their sockets, just showing how awkward this meeting was for her, Rain looked back up at the figure. "Wh-who are you?" she asked.
The boy just looked down at her, not saying anything. Instead, he reached out and grabbed her wrist. Turning around, he began to tug her along.
"Hey!" Rain cried. "What are you doing? Where are you taking me?" The strange figure did not respond; he only tugged her along the rows and rows of books.

"Ofcourse, Major." Professor Marcius said. "I don't get involved in the machines normally. Get me ask the Founder."
Lifting the radio she hit a button on it. "Sir, the military forces need to know the status on the LFO. Is it possible to confirm there orders at this time?"
Taking her finger off the button she held the radio out to Dusana.
A gentle voice came back almost instantly. "Yes Lilly, tell them that a recovery team is on there way to the landing pad as we speak. They will be transporting the TypeRhythm back for decontamination and study."
Beside them Rain had been lifted and loaded onto the gurny. The figures moved her inside quickly.
The professor waited patiently to see it Dusana needed anything else.

((Do you mean rhythm or rhyme? Or rythme which is French for "beat"? o_O`))
Dusana cocked her head a bit and raised an eyebrow. "TypeRhythm?" she questioned. "I've been hearing it called Eden. Is that it's official name?"
"Seriously, where are you taking me?" Rain questioned lad. She gave him an indignant look as he hurried along, not answering. "Fine!" she said loudly. "Go ahead and ignore me!"
Eventually, he brought her to an open space on the "library" that had a table and a chair. The boy swung her around, grabbed her by the shoulders, and placed her on the table. "Wait here," he said, then turned around and disappeared amongst the shelves. Rain just stared at him, realizing his voice sounded very familiar. Shaking her head, she looked down at her hands. "Hey, where'd that book go?"

(let's see.... pulls out dictionary.. I guess I meant rhythm. Not sure how to get involved in the Rain scene. I'll have to leave it alone for now. Enjoying reading it though.)
Over the radio there was a long delay before the voice came back,"Eden? That's interesting. It appears she named the machine. Yes, the project was completed originally under the project name Rhythm. Not that it is of much concern. It is a Type419. Do you have a minute?"

((Well.. I guess I could tell you what I was gonna do. neutral 'Cause wasn't Rain going to be brought back from the place or something?))
"Yes," Dusana said. "I have nothing urgent that needs attending to. What do you need?" She was kind of lost at the moment. Type419? What exactly did that mean? She figured she must be loosing it or something.

(((Yeah...I'm pretty much useless at this point...)))
"This is insane.....Damnit now I know why Dusana made me come here, she's trying to murder me that's what it is!"
Ryouki watched everyone silently without moving, even though inside the paranoia was seeping in. Facilities with so much order always sorta creeped the boy out, it made it all seem so clean and sterile. It wasn't natural....especially for a teenager that was used to seeing the sky and riding the waves.

Decard sat comfortably at his desk. In front of him on a video monitor as a camera feed of the group at the front steps.
Across the desk sat the soldier he had been speaking with earlier.
"Where shall Rain's training be held at?" Decard asked calmly. "You are to be responsible for her. I would offer our facilities however if you have a better place in mind that will be fine as well, Sargent Ivan."
The man known as Ivan stared at him calmly. "There's no need to move her. If she shows potential then we'll decide on additional training later. Until then this place will suffice."
"Of course Ivan. As you will." With that he opened the signal to Dusana again. "Never mind Major. Plans have been made. Thank-you for your time and your dedication to the mission. I believe the collection of the other two items are still pending at this point however. Will you be capable of continuing your mission to retrieve Kayako and Gray or shall I send a different ship after them?"

"I will do my best to retrieve the two," she answered him calmly. "Hopefully I won't need it, but if it is neccessary I may ask for help. I truly hope I will not need it, however. Thank you, sir."
She turned away and headed back to the car. Getting into the passenger seat, she looked at the group one last time before the vehicle drove away.
Rain sat on the table, swinging her legs as she waited for that weird guy to come back. Strumming her fingers on the wooden top, she looked around impatiently. "Where did at that guy get to?" she pondered aloud.

'Damnit...' That was all Ryouki thought. She'd really done it....she left him there. Great, that meant Dusana was dead serious about reassigning him to watch this little redhead girl. And that voice from the radio wasn't helping it any....All it did was make the black haired boy dread finding out what was inside this Foundation. So far, he'd only heard rumors. But the old man refering to the yet to be captured fugitives as 'items' bothered him to his core.
"Ma'am?" he addressed the woman standing nearby with the umbrella. "Major Dusana has reassigned my to stay here and watch this girl. If I may what exactly does this job entail?"
He tried to keep it as professional as possible. If he was lucky today, they'd order him back to the ship and lecture the major about doing this sort of thing. Or maybe not lucky.....It was hard to tell which evil was the lesser in this case.
'Talk about out of the frying pan and into the fire...'
(((You can tell one thing in this post...I know NOTTA about how military things go. Someone tell me, I'm just a humble spirit-blob!! gonk )))

The blonde woman looked from Daia to Ryouki. She slipped the radio into a pocket on her white coat and repositioned her umbrella.
"Major Dusana said that did she?" Lilly said calmly. "For tonight that will consist of feeding her, bathing her and putting her into a bed. tommorrow we will start the reconditioning process. Once that is complete she will be able to do these things for herself. Right now however, her body is delicate and must be tended to."
The scientists in there suits rolled Rain into the front doors carefully. Professor Marcius (lilly) followed them.
"Come on you two. Daia, Pino is waiting for you. You are to be reassigned to watch over the Anemone with your friend Keria. Boy..."
She stopped and looked back at Ryouki. "What is your name and rank?"
(might want to ask shen on the rank thing. I don't know ranks. I'd imagine he's a pretty low one. don't worry Kaya we'll figure a way to keep Ryouki involved... I hope.)
Daia started to follow the professor and stopped when she her the womans words. "Anemone? I thought... I thought the colonel would be here. They want me to watch Anemone?"
With shock and anger in her eyes she stomped off into the building.

(((He's a lieutenent, I said it like two pages ago....)))
"Lieutenent Ryouki Wakamiya, ma'am."
He was still trying to act proffesional, and not blush after what she said. Was that serious..? Man, Dusana must have known how idiotic this would make him look, that was probably why she did it. The albino-looking girl had ways of just finding the most evil and annoying things to do to people, even if they really didn't do much to cross her.
'This is humiliating...I can't believe she did this to me JUST because that girl latched onto me! I'd hate to see what she'd do if there was a mutiny...'

As the car carefully traveled away from the building and into the ruined streets, Dusana cast her gaze on them. "Terrible," she said, imagining what it must have been like for the people living here those ten years ago. I was only nine at the time...
Rain was just about to fall asleep sitting on the table when he came back. As she was ready to fall on her side, she shot up at seeing his figure approach. "Where did you go?" she asked him.
Only staring at her, he thrust a book into her hands. Gazing at the piece of literature, she recogized it. "Hey, this is my book, isn't it?" She looked back up at him, to see him nodding.
