Atom started floating down the hallway to the lab. As she floated by it was always a weird feeling to see so many of the heroes she saw in media up-close and in-person. She wondered if they even really noticed her, and I had nothing to do with the fact that she was only six-inches tall. Atom wasn't sure why she came to League Headquarters at this time. The fact that she embarrassed herself in front of her boss, and that she was still stinging from the disappointment of being passed over may have had something to do with it. Here she didn't have to worry about anyone asking about her job or expressing sympathy over her dad. In this place she was just another figure in a costume. Granted she was tall enough to be some child's action figure, but Atom proven she belonged. Not only with her scientific mind but Atom showed on more that one occasion she could throw a punch and cause some serious damage. 

Atom floated in front of the security scanner to enter into the lab. Usually someone would have to either speak for voice identification, or look into the scanner. In Atom's case all she had to do was hover in front of it. After a couple of seconds, the door to the lab gently slid open and Atom floated in. She cut on the lights and floated over to one of the lab tables with an image enhancer. Atom began to manipulate the buttons by gently floating over them, and then lightly pushing down on them. She was still studying a specimen that was brought in from one of the previous missions. It appeared to be floral but the cell structure was anything but floral and this scientific mystery intrigued Atom on so many levels. Just cracking one of the protein bonds alone would probably get her a Nobel Prize, but she didn't care about that. As she looked at the image Atom floated down to the table and began to slowly pace. She said, [color=0054a6]"Just remember Rhiannon, it's not the kill it's the thrill of the chase."[/color]

Just then Wonder Woman's announcement came over the speakers. On one hand Atom was disappointed she couldn't continue her study, but on the other hand she had a chance to get work with the others and that thrilled her even more. She cut off the scanner and made her way out the door. Once she made it into the hanger Atom floated at eye level so she could see everyone. She saw Wonder Woman and waited for her to announce what was going on.
