"I can see through walls, as well as through all of you. Literally, I mean, not speaking in a metaphorical sense." She cast a quick glance at her roommate, Natalie, as she said does last couple of words to reassure her that she hadn't violated her privacy, nor that she intended to do so in the future, but Natalie probably already believed otherwise. Lily had had the quick "talk" with Natalie about it, mentioning how she understood basic privacy rights and that she wouldn't do that to her roommate, whoever it was, and at the time the issue was dismissed without worry. But given the current tension in the room, Lily felt a bit defensive about it. Some, if not most of the people in the conference room probably thought that Lily took advantage of her ability to some extent, and that refrained her from saying anything else.

Shit...

"Yeah, I’m fine,” Amy shouted, coming up with a quick excuse. She walked towards the door to open it. “I just dropped something heavy on my toe,” she continued in a softer tone of voice, “I was actually looking for my tablet, but can’t seem to find it anywhere. You don’t suppose there is an extra one laying around somewhere this ship, do you?”

Amy leaned against the door as she waited for Grayson’s response. She wondered whether he was already suspicious of her or just happened to be hanging around the area just at the right moment.

"You know, that's just exactly what we were wondering..." Lily replied with a smile, rotating her chair around to face Justin, "care to enlighten us?"

She had remembered Justin's name from orientation, mainly after she developed a small crush on him, but as always, she avoided to go forward with the first move. Instead, she resorted to casual flirting and only hoped for the best. Apparently that had worked on her ex-boyfriend, Lucas, and she figured there wouldn't be any harm in trying again.

"But, we should actually get our answer anytime now..." she said to herself, turning back around to face the big, oval table. Realizing she was just now becoming hungry, Lily searched inside her bag for a breakfast bar. She found one of her favorites, the strawberries and cream-flavored kind, and eagerly opened the wrapper to take a bite.

"I couldn't be better," she grinned, grabbing her bag to place it inside her room. "Thanks for the brief tour, Grayson," Amy added from inside, turning to face him after placing her bag down. "I guess I'll just come to one of you if I need anything."

With that, she waved in his general direction, then closed the door shut. Amy let out a small sigh as she kept her hand on the door, obviously not to prevent Grayson or anyone else from entering the room, but rather, to finally be able to take a minute for herself without having others around.

I need to contact Arik, she thought, walking away from the door to sink down on the floor in front of her bag. She opened the smaller compartment and started searching for her tablet. No luck. Then she went on to the bigger compartment and searched there. Again, no luck.

"Fuck...where is it?"

Amy then repeated the process again, but this time taking longer to make sure she hadn't accidentally missed it. Regardless of her efforts, though, the tablet wasn't anywhere to be found. Just then, a thought occurred in her mind.

"Mothefuckers!" was all that could be heard from outside Amy's room as she came to the realization that those damn Alliance guards had taken her tablet without her knowledge.

I like it, that's really *beep* detailed.

What's the current time, more or less?

The Unwanted.

Me too!

Lily's alarm went off at 6:20. The phone was right underneath her pillow, and she rushed to turn off the alarm before awaking Natalie. Not that it made much sense since they both had the mysterious meeting at 7 o'clock, but nonetheless, she preferred if the girl got up on her own terms and at her own pace. Lily lay in bed for about a minute or two before getting up and quietly tiptoeing to her desk. Knowing full well in advance that it'd be an early morning, Lily had left out the clothes she'd be wearing that day so that she didn't have to make too much noise. She might as well be dubbed the best roommate in the entire school, but that's because she's never shared a room with anyone and didn't have to worry about someone else sharing such a small and intimate space with her. After she was dressed, Amy grabbed her bag and put the necessary toiletries inside along with some materials she thought would be useful for the day. She wouldn't return to the room after getting ready, and that would give Natalie the privacy she more than likely wanted.

Quietly closing the door behind her, Lily walked to the girl's bathroom. She found she wasn't alone when she got there, and quietly said good morning to one of the other girls whose name she hadn't quite remembered. She reached inside her bag and started brushing her hair, watching her reflection in the mirror as she once more thought what the meeting would be about. Lily then brushed her teeth for a couple of minutes and put on some deodorant. She wasn't feeling particularly hungry, and she decided that she would skip breakfast for now.

After she returned all her belongings back to the bag, she left the bathroom and headed towards the conference room. Lily put in her headphones and listened to her music as she made the 3 or 4 minute walk to her destination. Once she arrived, she noticed one of the taller guys from orientation was already there. The room was empty save for him.

"Guess we're the early birds, huh?" she smiled, taking off her headphones and taking a spot directly across from her classmate.
