[b][u]Part Two[/u][/b] Everyone is standing around the table. Skye steps up before them and holds out a hand. From it appears a pale blue, glowing orb. It floats up above the table to illuminate a yellowed piece of paper in the center of its surface. It is a hand-drawn map of the laboratory, where Errol is expected to be found. Skye crosses her arms self-consciously. It is quite easy to see how nervous she is. Whether it is because of the situation at hand, or not being used to having a group watching her, or a bit of both, it is difficult to tell. Her eyes drop to her feet as she clears her throat and opens her mouth to speak. “W-well, I just want to… you know, it’s really… I mean…” She pauses to give a steady sigh. Then she rests her hands on the table, and lifts her gaze, a more confident air about her. “I want to begin by saying thank you for being so willing to come here. Most of you offered to help before I could even ask, and none of you… none of you hesitated. I’m genuinely honored to know you. I don’t think I could have asked for a better company. “Now, I’m pretty sure that everyone knows this, but just to clarify, the goal is to disarm Errol and capture him, not to kill him. I… have a better understanding of what to say, and I want to talk to him at least one last time. This is a map of the laboratory he and I drew out a long time ago.” She gestures to the paper in front of her. “I’m going to be honest, I don’t know exactly what to expect from him, or what kind of improvements he’s made to his Atoms. He has worked on his Atoms here…” she points to the room marked with question marks “…and that could be a place to start. But there’s still a possibility he’s somewhere else, so we will have to be on guard.” Her finger glides up to the largest room on the map with a circle in its center. “We have to be careful to avoid the… eh… really-big-core-that-could-explode-room. We have to be careful regardless, but the core in that room is what powers everything there, and as far as we know it’s never been turned off, so it’ll be unstable. “Chiara has a tool that could help us disable the Atoms and leave Errol open.” She nods to the named one. “The rest of us will have to make sure she has the chance to use her Nanotech until we have the opportunity to get close. But other than that, we are basically flying by the seat of our pants. “It’s a six mile walk up to the mountain, so there will be plenty of time to ask questions on the way if you have any. If everyone is ready, we should get moving as soon as possible.” The archer tucks her helmet beneath her arm, hooks her bow over her shoulder, and waits for one last signal from each of her allies to show that they are prepared.
