Doo Wop. Posts: 363 Group: Admin Member #1 Joined: February 8, 2008	Neon Laboratories. One of the top major institutes in research and science in the world. Most of the work done here is oriented towards Drones and the science behind them: Evolution, anatomy, hive mind capability, you name it. The structure is actually not that big, with a single lobby (many gaurds populate this area) and a two way fork if they can get past security. These paths go for a ways, and the place even has a second floor. The walls are creme-white, giving visitors and employees alike a sense of calmness. --- Professer Jeff Hawthorne paced his room lab room, every few seconds looking at the door. Where is that Anima girl? he thought anxiously. She was supposed to be here an hour ago. I'm so close to a breakthrough... He turned back to his desk, sifted through his paperwork hurriedly, and made some notes. He looked at the package for Anima and sighed, wishing she would hurry up her pace.

Cursing under her breath at her lack of sense of direction, she entered the front door, hoping she wasn't too late. Not a moment after appearing in the building, a security official stopped the girl. Before the guard could say anything, Anima looked at him and hurriedly said, "My name's Anima Nightswimmer. I was asked here by a Professor Hawthorne... could you please show me the way to his office?"

The second sifted pressed the screen of his computer, and nodded. The first turned back to Anima. "Please leave all weaponry and your body suit at the secretary desk. We'll take you to see Hawthorne." He walked away from Anima and tapped his stun stick (the modern version of the billy club) on the secretary desk, indicating where to place the armaments. He stood outside a rather unimpressive door in the back of the lobby, waiting for Anima to get there. The desk gaurd tapped a panel, and a staticy hologram image of Proffesor Hawthorne appeared. "Proffesor, Anima is being escorted to your room." "Thank you, Lewis."

She disabled her suit and slipped if off, laying it next to the weaponry. Anima stretched her shoulders, and swiftly strode to where her escort stood. As she walked, she thought to herself. Kinda plain for such a high-end research facility... but hey, not everything's exactly what it's made out to be.

Doo Wop. Posts: 363 Group: Admin Member #1 Joined: February 8, 2008	As Anima approached, the gaurd nodded at the desk. The gaurd there pressed a panel, and the doors behind the first opened. "Keep up," he stated to the girls as he turned and walked hurriedly down the corridor behind. As they passed through the doors, the swung shut. As they approached the fork, the gaurd swung right. The hallway was moderately lit, with white walls and ceiling. It was lined with monotonous doors, each with room numbers lined above them. Their windows were either covered or painted, it was hard to tell which. Sometimes, sounds could be heard from behind these doors, like talking, but teh sounds were to muffled to make much sense of them. The gaurd eventually stopped at room 109. He pressed a button on the wall, pressed some buttons, and the door slowly swung open. "I hope you know the way to get back," he told Anima, pointing his stick down the way they came. "Just go straight down that hall. We've got cameras, so we'll know when you're coming or when your doing something you're not supposed to do. Don't try investigate the other doors, don't try anything funny; we'll know." He walked past Anima down the hallway they came, but stopped abruptly. "If you're wondering why I'm so blunt with you, it's just institute policy. We've had one too many break-ins and leaks, so this is mainly precautions. Don't take it personally." He turned his head to Anima. "And be nice to the proffessor. He's a bit eccentric, but he means well." With that, he continued walking down the hall, his steps resonating agaisnt the walls.

She stared at the ground for a moment and sighed, listening as the sound echoed down the hallway from whence she came. Building her composure, she looked up and stepped through the doorway. "Sorry I'm late..."

"Ah, you're finally here. As you probably know, I'm Jeff Hawthorne. Now, shall we continue with these formalities or shall we cut to the chase?" Without waiting for her response, he turned away and continued to speak. "The bloomlot is a very amazing species, but this laboratory has very little information on one. They're a rather new species of Drone, but that's neither here nor there. I, as a botonist, am very interested in its anatomy, but I lack both the inventory and the permission to gain access to the Wilds. That's where you come in. "Inside this box--" he indicated a brown box on his desk, "--is a vibroknife and two containers. I need you to go down to the Wilds and kill a bloomlot and its budlots. After you do so, cut off a leaf from its bloom and the end of a tendril and stick each into a container. Bring it here, then my research can continue." While saying all this, he was pacing the room, looking like he was deep in thought. He turned to anime after his monologue with his beady eyes. "Now, any questions, ma'am?"

After a couple seconds, she realized she was actually expected to answer, and smiled inwardly until she realized she had basically done the same thing with the security guard earlier. She replied, "No, sir, it sounds simple enough. I'll get right on it," adding a smile at the end. Anima walked to the box to inspect the knife. She thought, a new species of Drone? Sounds more like some kind of plant... Setting the thought aside for a moment, she opened the box to look over its contents.

Doo Wop. Posts: 363 Group: Admin Member #1 Joined: February 8, 2008	In the box was a small knife with a button just below the gaurd. Undoubtedly, this would activate the vibration function. While Anima's blades would be just as efficient, undoubtedly they would cauterize the tissue with their heat, while this knife would simply sever it. Alongside that were two small plexi-glass boxes. "Well, if you have no questions, a transport will be waiting for you outside of this complex. It will take you to the NI Checkpoint in the Eruba Plains. They have reported to have seen a bloomlot in the vicinity, so hurry and go." The man scuttled away into a backroom, possibly to do more research...or plan a maniacle plot to take over the world, who knows?

With the meeting over and done, she turned to leave. After walking through the door, she took a quick moment to remember which way she came, then turned and followed the hallway down, her steps echoing noticeably more eerily now that she wasn't accompanied. As she reached the fork, she was about to glance over her shoulder to see the other hallway... but remembered the guard's warning and thought better of it, trying not to seem suspicious if she could help it. Coming to the door leading to the lobby, she opened the door like her escort did earlier and walked through. She went towards the desk to retrieve her equipment, then walked back through the front door to search for her ride.

Doo Wop. Posts: 363 Group: Admin Member #1 Joined: February 8, 2008	As Hawthorne had said, there sat a taxi just outside of the building. The engine thrusters at the stern were a bit larger than normal, probably meant for speedy travel over a long distance. The door was open, inviting Anima in for a ride. --- [Items Recieved] Vibroknife (Vibrating Blade) 2 Small Containers Relocation: Here.
