[h3][b][center][color=green]Subject 626, Hal[/color][/center][/b][/h3] There was a bright flash of light, and subject 626 shielded his eyes from the incoming light. A bunch of information rushed into his head, his senses on overload and filling with information. Oxygen filled his lungs, and he sat up for a few seconds, getting used to moving his body around. He looked down at his hands, opening and closing them, before looking at his reflection briefly from the pod. He had stark white hair, gently falling into his eyes as he brushed it to the side. His blue eyes were bright, staring right back at him, his pale skin complementing his features. He had an above average build, tall, somewhat muscular although a bit slim. He tugged on his collar, looking down at his clothes that fit him surprisingly well and was very comfortable at that. It was almost like it perfectly fit to his body. So did the collar, and that seemed to not be coming off any time soon. A female doctor, who seemed to be of middle age and oriental welcomed them and started explaining things right off the bat. He got used to taking in the senses around him, seeing his location, but listened carefully to the words she said. It felt as if it was no real surprise to him, just going through the motions, even if this was his first time being aware of it. He couldn't put his finger on it, but it felt like he had some deep amnesia. They were apparently just born now, made as weapons, something along those lines. Before he could really process the information well, a person that looked like the rest of the subjects joined them. He was tall, blonde, bright blue hair and fair skinned. There was not a flaw on him, and he looked tall, handsome, muscular and powerful, like an actor from a superhero movie. He was addressed as their leader, but for some reason, Hal didn't take a liking to him. Because he looked and seemed better than him. And that didn't sit well with Hal. The rest of the subjects didn't look too intimidating, one even looked mildly creepy and the other like a greek goddess, but that was besides the point. He knew he would get to know his group soon, even the one who looked like she had a splitting headache, but for now this 'Hercules' guy didn't sit right with him. As they were led through the various halls and facilities of 'lockdown' he payed extra attention to each detail, trying to process the information as best he could. He had a lack of memory, so he might as well fill his brain with the ones that he was having now. Everything seemed pretty reasonable, and it wasn't luxurious by any means, but it was state of the art technology and now his home. He was sure to find out more about this place, his powers, and his purpose, but before he could ask any questions the Hercules guy decided to go into his room for the night. Despite not liking him, his source of information was useful, and subject 626 looked around the training room in amazement. His daydreaming was cut short by some bickering between the cast members, and the Aphrodite looking girl seems to have already left because of it. Or she was checking herself out in another mirror. Who knew. He didn't feel like getting into an argument, and he stretched his muscles, having been unused until now as he got used to his own body. Hal could spend time at the gym, but he could stretch in his dorm when it was time. For now, he decided to brush past the group, neglecting them and walking towards the study. [i][color=green]What a bunch of losers... They have barely been alive and they're already complaining and bickering[/color] [/i] This is what Hal thought to himself as he grabbed a book, labeled "Science: For beginners." and sat down at a table, starting to read the book. His physical body would come eventually, but for right now, he wanted to mentally exercise his brain and acquire knowledge to get a bit of an edge. Knowledge was power, and he didn't need to know the phrase to believe the ideal behind it as he slowly built up his reading skill, slowly reading words faster and understanding them better. For the words he didn't know about, he simply used context clues, but the dictionary beside him also helped for those pesky words that he hadn't a clue what they meant. Hopefully they wouldn't bring their bickering into such a quiet place, or he would be sure to throw a book at them if given a valid reason.
