1st Sand Coffin [Video/Action]
[Gaara has read the letters, and thinks this is just another sadistic experiment at the facility. He gets up out of bed and curiously looks around the room, making a mental note of the trunk. Where is the communication device? It might have been misplaced during the transfer. He needs to find a way to access the public network.
He leaves the room and walks swiftly through the hallways in a brief exploration. Eventually, he wanders into the library and finds a computer, recognizing the electronic device from the facility. With some experience, he navigates the functions and figures out how to post a video.
He stares impassively at the screen for a few seconds.] Doctors, Consortium, Val. [Addressing all three to see which one, if any, would actually respond to his call.] This is an amateur tactic. Rather disappointing.
[Now, to figure out what is this week’s experiment. They’re not on schedule for an F3 expedition. Strange.]
Sai. [Brief pause.] Kankuro, Temari. Report in.

[He waits patiently, staring at the screen with some confusion.]
What is it?
Mmm. [He nods, keeping a mental note of it. He will need to explore soon, to get more information on the new place.] We are in agreement.
[A pause, and a curious look.] Are you a civilian?
[video]
[Addressing Gaara's question, he gives his response promptly.]
Negative. Back home, I was the communications engineer and head systems manager. I am the system, or was, considering our current situation. My father was Commander Martin Zigmarl. I am called Elian. It may not mean anything to you directly, but it is who I am.
[video]
[He has no idea who that is, but it's not very surprising. Gaara assumes he is from another world.]
So you are an engineer. Are these collars beyond the technological capabilities of your world?
[Gaara shakes his head.] I am not familiar with that name.
[video]
[His fingers worked the terminal in front of him that he created at a rapid pace. His eyes remained focused and unblinking as if his mind and the machine were acting as one complete being. An error message comes up.]
The collars are not known to me. My Absolute Perception cannot find any information on it other than the maintenance schedule and the colors. There is nothing else beyond that.
The technology presents itself as a challenge despite the lack of information that coincides with the device.
[video]
Is that an ability you use to acquire information? [It has a name, which is similar to the concept of ninja techniques.]
That shouldn't be surprising. [He nods once in understanding.] If people were easily able to decipher and dismantle the collar, then it would be ineffective.
[video]
[Elian saw no need to hide any information should the right questions be asked. Holding anything back would be catastrophic to their survival. As long as the questions weren't anything too personal about himself, he wouldn't be answer them using his Perception.]
The information is locked.
[video]
That will be sufficient, for the time being. Every system has a weakness, regardless of appearances and perception. There will come a time when their defenses can be penetrated.
[He gives him a slight nod of acknowledgment.]
Your cooperation is appreciated, Elian.
[video]
[Elian gave a nod to his head in response.]
You are welcome. Goodbye.
[It seemed like a good end to the conversation considering that Commander Zigmarl often said the same thing, and it drew things to a close.
The screen flashed the HOLY symbol before it turned black.]
