John stepped off the train, suitcase in hand.  [i]What am I even doing here?[/i] he thought to himself.  He WAS on his way to a mining city to see if they had the capability of producing Uranium for his group's experiment.  Then he got a call from Central ordering him to detour here.  This city didn't even have a mine, so why would they send him here?  Were they thinking of building one?

Until he could call and ask about it, he was going to have to wonder.  He checked his watch.  8AM.  Well, he might as well find a hotel and put his suitcase away.
