Cal chuckled and whispered back. "Over here South." While he had been waiting he'd collected four candy bars from the ration packs. He sighed and waved her over throwing her a chocolate bar. "Here I grabbed these in case you were hungry." He said with a sad little smile. He really didn't know what to say to her, maybe he should start with the sim, or the fact that it was illegal. He told Penn but that was different, that had been hysterics and his lost grip on reality, he was here and he was talking with the real South.

He knew where to begin. "Listen, I wanted to tell you something important... I spent two years with most of you guys in a Sim and from what I can tell it was all damn accurate data they used. They wanted to test me, It was a full virtual reality test one where in my head I spent two years trapped in mountain leading you all. Fighting, laughing, trusting all of you." He sighed, it was hard to fight the memories but he did his best. "I've got brain damage, I know it. I don't think like I used to I question decisions I make, I argue over what I should do in combat, I risk my neck pulling stunts like in the sim yesterday."
