South lay lying awake in the room. She could hear North sleeping soundly but she knew he’d wake up at the slightest noise. Mostly she was just monitoring systems. She felt bad, a little bit because she was essentially spying on people but most people were asleep at this time anyway. The time ticked by and eventually midnight drew near and she decided she should head out to find Cal. As she slid out of bed she heard North stir and he looked over at her drowsily. “Where are you going?” He asked; his voice groggy as he rolled over to look at her.

“Bathroom.” South replied casually as she walked to the door. She heard a small groan as North settled back into sleep and the girl quickly slipped out into the dim hallway. It was too late to bother putting on her amour, not to mention it would look a lot more suspicious walking around this time of night in it. As she was she just had a pair of underpants on and one of North’s shirts. It seemed much more believable if she said she was merely going to get a midnight snack this way. The hallway was dim and she was mostly relying on the map on her data pad and the dim light the screen gave off.
