Re: Chapter 4 An Uncertain Future(Ubberific) GMed by ranger
Crossing the yard to the hanger Rikke found the place rather quiet. Hardly any soldiers were about and those that were guarded only the most vital of buildings. The remains of the battle still littered the ground but it seemed most of the major debris was at lest cleared.
While most of the facility was a ghost town the hanger was as busy as ever. Technicians ran two and fro and sparks shot out from darkened corners as they tried to get their tools of war ready for another fight. Sadly Rikke could see the seriousness of their action as every single person was equipped with a side arm. It was rather sad given that some of these very technicians where wearing tool belts just yesterday. One sight she did notice was Chu running about helping out his own little arch welder patching up equipment. Still with all the commotion Rikke couldn't find Anna. Thankfully she wasn't lost long as Janet came into view and motioned her over to a recessed door labeled pilots. Ushered inside the tall woman smiled at Rikke. "
Strip and clean up in the shower. Go quickly your're gonna want to have time to get used to your I.S." If Rikke didn't protest she would find the most absolutely wonderful shower she had ever seen. Multi directional heads surrounded the rogue. Once she was in the water started very cold at first but warmed quickly. After she was cleaned with the soap and brush provided the shower would stop only to have vents above her open up and hit her with hot rapid air in order to dry her. Once that was done Janet escorted her to another room completely naked. Once inside she heard Anna speak up. "
Hi Rikke!. I know you must be confused but trust me this is really for your own good. I.S.s need to be skin tight to function properly. Now just let me get a good scan of your body. Oh and please put up your hair you don't want it to get stuck. A moment later she was bombarded with an array of lights all over her. "
Grah! its so unfair! How come I got such small girls and everyone on the base seems to be some freakish big breasted amazon!" Rikke could hear the annoyance in Anna's voice which brought a small giggle to her but soon enough Anna told her to go into another room. Once inside Rikke felt how cold and sterile this room was almost like the examining room she found herself in on her first day. "
Okay Rikke stand in the center of the room. Place your feet into the slots provided. Now this is going to be kind of uncomfortable okay. Just do your best to stay calm. This will feel weird but your not in any danger okay?"
That was hardly comforting but just as Rikke was about to say something the machine below her made a noise as a dark colored liquid began to pool at her feet. Looking down Rikke got a little worried which only grew as the machine began to sink her deeper into the liquid. Trapped as she was She had little place to go though Anna's voice echoed in the room.
Just stay calm Rikke if you fidget to much well have to start over!" Watching Rikke saw it pass her waist and keep going. It did feel weird but at lest it felt warm though honestly this future world was way to crazy for her. Still further she sank until her shoulders where covered. Then after a moment she began to rise back up. "
Very good Rikke you hardly moved a muscle. I will only have to make some minor adjustments. You can let your hands down." Doing so and touching her thigh Rikke felt as if she was touching her own leg. Just then Rikke watched as her hand and arms get coated in the same stuff. "
Okay your Interface Suit doubles as thermal and environmental clothing. None of your movements should be hindered. Think of it as a technological skin. It won't stop bullets but it will keep you warm. Anyway this will let you interact with the Willow and any other Mechanized armor we have on hand. Though honestly you like the training to make use of it, but its the only way for the life support systems on the Widow to well support you. Now whats your favorite color?" Just as she spoke Rikke saw a mirror slide down revealing her now

Once we get the harness fitted you can get out of the suit and have it stored to later but first things first. How do you like it? Is it comfortable? Feeling any pinches or folds?"
