Warren continued to simply sit there, idly listening to the conversation going on around him as he looked around the room. He noted the two other boys seemingly whispering to each other nearby, but it was the crying of the young girl, Cecilia, that drew his attention, and he watched with a quirked brow as the young Indian girl, Adi was apparently her name, tried to calm her down. Warren was about to open his mouth to say something and intervene when the sudden shriek of an alarm completely shattered any semblance of peace within the building, as workers began to rush to and fro, and Warren immediately stood to his feet, sleep entirely gone from his eyes and a chill running down his spine as he cursed under his breath. He recognized the sound of these particular sirens, the sounds for them were universal amongst all NERV bases, and he'd run through several drills for such an event before. He looked over at Adi, who seemed a little panic at the sudden rush of activity. "It's an Angel attack," he said, in English, since it seemed to be a rather common language amongst them, and he wasn't sure if she knew Japanese or not. "We have to get moving."

Seemingly punctuating his comment, one of the boys dashed off into the crowd, mumbling something under his breath, whatever words he said to himself lost to shriek of the alarms around them. As Warren watched the boy go, a man in a suit, with a shaggy mane of blond hair, and craggly facial hair upon his chin, approached, jumping back a little to avoid the boy dashing off. "Hey there, kids. I'm Byron Hughes, S2 Agent," the man said cordially, entirely too relaxed for their current surroundings, and flashing a NERV ID card by way of identification. "Just call me Byron though." He gave a glance back towards the direction the boy had ran off, then pointed a thumb over his shoulder in his direction. "Well, I'm sure you all know it's time for business, so I'll just ask you all to follow me." Byron gave a confident smile before jogging off slowly, Warren hesitating for a moment before following along. As he left, he glanced back to see another man approach, seemingly looking for them in a bit of a panic. Byron glanced back, and noticed him too, giving the man a wave. "Sorry, man! Beat you to the punch here!" Byron called back, before continuing on his way.
