_____________________________

You awake, suddenly, rent from a dream you can't quite remember, somethings wrong, you can't remember anything, all you remember is waking in this pod, The green letters scrolling across in front of you 'Wake up, It is time for stage one. Notice; Memory function impaired, please provide Repairs to regain Memory Functions' This scrolls through enough times for it to be fully read twice before the Pod itself pops open, across, below, and above you, few other pods are doing the same, All occupants seemingly having just woken up. suddenly a voice rings out from all corners. "Good morning, I am The Overmind. The overseer of this space station. I apologize for the lack of memory, Though you will remember your name, Down the hall. and to the right, is a room, it has your clothes and equipment in. Dress, and Prepare." The voice went silent, suddenly it became apparent that you are standing naked, in a ice cold corridor, You should probably do as the voice instructed, Even if it gave no explanation as to what to prepare for.

Crozius awakens with a grunt. As he rubs his head he notices the spines on his arms. "What..." he thinks to himself as he examines the rest of himself. Plates made what he can assume is bone cover his entire body. As he exits the pod. Awkwardly he lumbers away, Crozius notices he stands far taller then most of the other. He stood around seven feet tall. A small growl of annoyance escapes his lips. Spines all over his body twitch and rise slowly as if to express his mood.

Begin startup procedures. Access memory core. Access denied. Access fine motor control circuits. Access granted. Begin waking cycle. Malrin 745 Awaken His internal programming began to boot up. The unit began to sense the area around him. Green lights began to power up around the jet black suit. He then opened his eyes and stepped out of the pod. How had this unit get there ? He saw one being awake and moving. He was about the size of this unit but a bit shorter. Malrin was a few inches taller than this being. He looked around and noticed he stood out among them all. He looked at the man. "Hail, being. This unit would like to know your designation. This one is called Malrin 745. " He said scanning the being checking if it was dangerous. "Where is this? Where are we?"

[LokiLeo789]

Lee squinted as a robotic voice spoke to him. Under such conditions Lee was not paying attention in the slightest. He looked around the cold room, he was surprised to see other men, woman and...things. Lee held his hand to his eyes, wiping the tiredness from them. Lee was told by the robotic voice to go and change, "What" Lee asked quizzically. He did not realize that he was buck naked until know, "Oh" he mumbled as he out of the weird device that he was sleeping in, and followed the others into the dressing rooms.

[caliban22]

Crozius examined Malrin for a moment clicking slightly he slowly lumbers over spines lowered in a way to show he meant no harm "I am Crozius" he says. Crozius's voice was deep and emotionless. Annoyed by his new surroundings the spines twitched "I don't know this place.."

[Avanhelsing]

Mal looked around confused as a robot exoskeleton could be. "This unit shall designate you Crozius. Pleasure to meet you. " He said with a bow as he walked around Crozius scanning him. "Strange. Scans indicate biological being. " He said to the man. "Perhaps we should obey him and go change?" He said striding off to the changing room. In his own world.

[MaxwellX831]

He awoke with a start, the purple, roiling plasma covering the dark metal of his sleeping form suddenly erupting into brilliant blue-white flashes. As he struggled to consciousness, he noticed green words in front of his vision. "Wake up, It is time for stage one."

He began to ponder just where he was when the message played itself again. Furiously, he began to bang at the walls of the coffin, his anger filling the space with sparks. Suddenly, the walls just seemed to fall away. He managed to keep calm, though his mind was racing. He saw other beings of all types looking as confused as he felt. Stepping away from the plate he had been left on, a voice boomed. "Down the hall and to the right is a room. It has your clothes and equipment. Dress, and Prepare."

Shrugging at the others, he began to move in that direction, while trying to process all that had happened to him leading up to that prison of a box. He found he couldn't. He could barely remember his name.

They called him Arc.

But who were they?

[Kronshi]

Senoka awakened from his chamber and awkwardly walked out, his horns getting stuck at first. He then headed for the room described in the message, avoiding social contact as much as possible.

[VKAllen]

The embers of fire lit dimly as her eyes opened, slightly caressing the blinking green's light. She felt the need to just close it again and go for another five minutes. Her eyes closed, yet it opened again-- This time the stretch of her eyelids forced themselves as if it was some sort of sentient life as it pulls the red-headed girl to her feet as the Pod's cockpit opened. This place looked... Peculiar. It was distinctively cube-like. Having eight corners all connecting at equal points. Something felt amiss in the air but she couldn't put her finger for what it was. Everything felt... Different.

Those lazy scarlet eyes recalled on the green-lit message. Time for Stage One. Memory Function was impaired. Whatever that could've mean... She looked, upon the lightly reflective screen of the pod to spot a beautifully figured woman-- one that she quickly learned was her as eyes peeled to her ownself and she began checking her own appearance out, how incredible she had looked despite being nude. People were looking, but there felt no shame. "You're looking great, Lebriance~" She whistled to herself.

"Good morning, I am the Overmind." The voice that cloaked the dagger of an assassin struck her earlobes with its booming cut. She felt no sense of being threatened as the voice echoed through the cube but it prompted her to search for the source of the voice. Mainly by looking up. "I apologise for the lack of memory though you will remember your name..."

"Lebriance... Saint." She looked around her-- slowly noticing the presence of others and she became alerted. Were they the ones who spoke that to her? How come all of them were nude too? "Down the hall to your right, there is a room. It has your clothes and equipment inside. Dress, and Prepare."As the voice receeded in a sea of silence, Lebriance brought her arms to cross underneath her chest until everybody made a move. The cold wind kissed her bare body, and shivers ensued before she started to collect herself.

"Oh damn it! It's cold!" She wrapped herself around with her arms, making a quick dash for the room down the hall to her right. A spacious room filled with grand tools of war. Her eyes were intimidated, but she felt a homely vibe. Amongst the other tools, the suit that stood out like an angel had captivated and pulled her into its holy embrace. She felt at peace, yet fearful for the incredible power it holds. The suit reverbed upon Lebriance's approach. As if it sprung itself into life. right beside the suit, was a one piece latex-suit. She slowly feathered her hands to reach for the suit and played her fingers around the weave. "Beautiful..." She slowly dressed herself with the latex suit, zipping the front together as suddenly the Battlesuit de-compressed itself open with a sudden series of mechanical sounds.

She had a look at the Angel suit. It looked like... It was made for her. The grooves of the thighs, the size of the arms and even the height of the battle suit were tailored seemingly for her. She finally gathered her courage and slowly inserted herself into the suit, at which immediately clamped her entire body together. The system prevented her from moving. But once the suit began to glow a reddish aura, she began to be able to move again-- but feeling even lighter than before. She felt weightless like a feather. Her senses were rising off the charts as she felt her sixth sense quickly kicking in to work and her hidden psionic powers suddenly becoming unlocked and attuned to the suit's systems. It was overwhelming power at her fingertips. Her wings began to twitch, and eventually move. Her eyes began to glow like laser pointers.

[eddieddi]

"Congratulations Saint, You've managed to somehow calculate witch gear is yours." the voice spoke again. "It appears that my memory banks and storage units were lost somehow, I require you to recover, or otherwise repair them." As Saint settled in the Angel suit a breif rush of her old memory flickered through her mind, Almost nothing of it made sense, most of it was training, faces blanked out, names missing, but the basic skills she learnt were all there "Ah, it appears you've remembered how to fight, Good. that'll keep you alive quite a bit longer." The Overmind Commented "The Rest of you should hurry up. Or else." There wasn't a change of tone in the voice, nor did it seem threatening, but it was compelling non the less.

((VK, Saint's just unlocked the five basic skills on her CS.))

[MaxwellX831]

Shaking his head, still trying to dredge up what memories he could, Arc followed the human female into the large room the voice had described. It was full of equipment of all kinds. Giving an appraising look over the multitude of weaponry, blades, and other feats of technology, his gaze fell on a nondescript block of metal sitting off in a corner. His eyes crackled with dim memories striving to be remembered, and he strode towards it.

As he reached it and picked it up, electric currents flowed down his arms, and the metal began to shift in his grip. Sections of it began to elongate, other parts simply seemed to melt away. The change took nearly a second, and left him holding a large rifle, electricity crackling down and around its sleek form. Arc grunted. For the first time since waking up in that metal box, he felt something other than confusion or annoyance.

Holding that rifle, he felt somewhat peaceful. Happy.

[Kronshi]

Senoka walked over to a locker and opened it up, everything was oversized and quite large for any being, "Nope," he said opening the next locker, "This doesn't look right either," as he closed this one he realized they all had names on them and felt a wave of stupidity. He then walked over to the one with his name on it and opened it up and put on the clothes that were inside and sheathed the two swords, "Something's missing, I can feel it." Senoka noticed a glint of light shine from the back of the locker, he reached toward it and pulled out an amulet and held it in his hands.

[LokiLeo789]

Lee opened on of the lockers that held some of the clothes they were required to were. It was kind of bland but he wore it anyway with out any complaint. Lee watched as the other men, woman, and things put on similar clothing. He was not sure about what was going on here, but this was the only thing Lee had going for him at the moment, so he would comply with the robotic voice for the time being.

After putting on his clothes, Lee began to wander around the general area. After a few seconds he found himself in a large room filled to the brim with different weapons. Lee walked up to one of them, it was like a giant robot, gray and red with large claws, and it was almost 20 ft tall. Lee was not drawn toward it or felt at peace with it, Lee just thought it was cool and that he would totally pilot that if he had the chance. Lee touched the giant robot's large foot, all of a sudden Lee is pulled into his conscious, pictures of random things show up, some of them hap pics of him on it. Lee stumbled back, pulling his hand away from the meahcs foot.

[caliban22]

Crozius slowly lumbers into the changing room. After a quick examination of the room he notices lockers with names. One of them has the name Crozius stenciled onto its door.As he tries to open the door he realizes his arm spines wont allow him to open the door.Annoyed by this his spines rise and stick straight out.. After a bit of trouble navigating his spines, Crozius is able to open the door without damaging it. Inside he finds a photo of a woman, a strange ring,and a helmet. Crozius stares at the photo for what feels like hours. Crozius mood softens and a soft clicking sound escapes his lips as spines all over his body slowly lower. "who is this woman? why does looking at her make me feel..so happy..yet so very sad?" he thinks to himself as he slowly picks up the photo and places it back down. Next he examine the helmet. quickly he puts it on. suddenly lights turn on, and a woman's voice is heard inside "Map...Green,Coms...green,oxygen levels..green. Priority systems at acceptable levels." it says to Crozius surprise. Lastly He examines the ring, a faint feeling of familiarity comes over him.

[eddieddi]

"Well done, so far no one has made any mistakes. That is unexpected." The voice commented. after a pause it seemed to decide on something. "Please exit the room and follow the red and yellow lights on the floor, You will be guided in to a combat training zone, In order to prepare you for what lies ahead" ouside the room a set of lights flickered on blinking in a peristaltic pattern, guiding them down the hall towards a unknown destination. When they followed them they would be guided to a large, seemingly empty white room.

[Avanhelsing]

Weapon systems powering up. System power success. Rerouting power to weapons systems. [/i ] The suit chirped and began to power weapons whatever that meant. He was about to leave when he noticed a bright yellow pendant on the brown string just sitting there. Mal walked over and picked up the pendant. It appeared to be some sort of crystal. He picked it up and placed it around his arm. He felt it belong there. He then turned and walked towards the room. "This unit believes we were brought here a reason. Reason unknown. Memory systems down." Mal said to himself it seemed. [i] Attempt memory system repairs. Attempt failed. "Illogical to try and fix. " He said almost glumly. As glum as he could be.

[VKAllen]

SHe felt the brimming power in her fingertips. It felt like... She had the strength and willpower to do anything she wished. She looked upon her suit-covered palm and to the rest of the people in the room-- Where slowly her reality was twisted to another dimension where she saw images of someone... Perhaps even her? The blood-red threads that roam emptiness, with her own palms shot an energy blast. The after image was preceded over by the picture of flames burning around her, following her every command as it swiftly tore cities with its relentless wrath. The next was a brief eye contact between her and another figure... Unknown to her current memory. As soon as their eyes disconnected, they moved so fluently like tango dancers-- decorated with flowers, or rather blood.

The apparitions cleared and she was brought back to the present. Her eyes darted at every single person in the room seemingly breathless and silent. She couldn't comprehend what just occurred. Everybody was mostly talking to their own. The god-like voice still haunts the four corners of the room. Voice seemingly coming from the very room itself echoed; "Please exit the room and follow the red and yellow lights on the floor." She glanced upon the foundation she stood on, following a set of parallel lights that carpetted themselves to a door. Lebriance made eye contact with everyone, fearing for enemies yet looking for friends. "You will be guided in to a combat training zone in order to prepare you for what lies ahead." They must be the reason for this combat training.

Her feet spurred towards the light-guided door, and opened it-- entering a blinding bright room filled with nothing. The room was white as canvas. It's colour, so seemingly bright she couldn't see the corners of the...

That's when she was wrong. She could sense it. It may be bright-- but this room is actually confined. The corners were distant and the light helped it cloak its boundaries. She continued on, the heels of her suit clapping as she approached the middle of the dubious wasteland. "Combat training?" Her words uttered. She believed it was folly.

[Kronshi]

Senoka cocked his ears as the voice came from overhead. He put on the amulet and quickly rushed for the training room.

[LokiLeo789]

Lee stumbled away from the giant as he hears the voice tell the group to head to the combat room. He walked away with the other, contemplating the recent series of events, waking up with a bunch of naked men and women, and he could not lie, some of the woman were looking good. They were some clothes, explored a bit, and now they were to go to some combat room. Lee walked into my the room, he was expecting something cooler than bland whit walls but this would have to do.
"Well this is nice." Lee said out loud.

[eddieddi]

"It could be called that." the voice said, almost dryly. "Survive. Then we will talk more." It commented and the entire place flickered, generating a massive terrain, a seemingly endless jungle, alive with a cacophony of birds and other creatures. The door was no where to be found, though within a minute the sound of something VERY big stomping through the undergrowth could be heard. birds taking to the sky, and other creatures falling silent preceded it.
