Utena sat alone at the cafeteria, picking away at her food. It had been like this for the past hour, the whole mood was this strange mix of somber and elated as various groups talked about the recent accomplishments and victories the MFF had managed to score of the dangerous GMGs. It was a turning point in the "war", they had finally managed to score a string of wins against their dastardly foes. But there was always this backdrop of anxiety as everyone skirted around one simple fact. 

Commander Akari had never made it back. At some point during the rescue mission on the island, Akari had gone entirely missing. A sweep of the island revealed no trace of the red head, they had been patrolling the surrounding ocean for a while now to see if she had maybe somehow been swept away. But no word so far, absolutely nothing. Utena got up from her seat and started walking a familiar path, left at the first turn, right at the third, another right past the vending machines. So it went until she found herself in that warehouse once again, scientists bustling around as she looked up at Terrorkeat and their new "acquisition" Schrodinger. Not a cute name at all honestly, Utena would have gone with something like... Tigris. Like a tiger, but a girl.

She moved closer to the cages, questions buzzing in her mind as she stared the two GMGs down. Utena looked around nonchalantly, making sure nobody was too close by. And then she began to whisper. [b][color=gray]"I'm going to ask some questions. Blink once for no, blink twice for yes. Now then, do you both understand me? Starting out easy."[/color][/b] Utena asked as she crossed her arms seriously, constantly watching out for eavesdroppers and busybodies. [b][color=gray]"Second question, do you know where Commander Akari Yashiro is? Red haired girl with twin tails, a bit shorter than myself. She disappeared when we... captured you."[/color][/b] There was a slight grimace as she glanced over at Schrodinger, it was quite evident she didn't agree with how the MFF had done things. But there was one more question that needed to be answered.

[b][color=gray]"And lastly. Do you have anyone who could take you in if you got free?"[/color][/b] This was the most important question of all, as it would determine just how Utena would go from here. If they did have some kind of larger association they could go to after getting free, there was absolutely no doubt Utena would likely join them after this latest event. The way the MFF was engaging GMGs at this point was setting a dangerous precedent for future engagements, if it wasn't for the fact that Goomie seemed quite literally immortal they might have even killed her with that assault. But if they didn't have anywhere to go, then Utena would have to harbor them in her own home until she could figure out a better plan, which could work for a time if they can all transform into humans like Utena suspected. But it was a short term plan at best.
