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 doesn’t understand how this man was able to come back from being terminated twice, but maybe Ishtar will have answers for him. Speaking of which…]

You seem to be acquainted with Ishtar. Are you a friend of hers?

[No doubt because of the people here. He had no idea how, but he knew they were related to the Consortium. How else could their presence here be explained?

He nods.]

Yes, I am. I take it you two are friends as well?

I see. [Maybe he can be trusted. Although, Gaara does know how Ishtar is. She could befriend anyone, even people with hidden agendas. He would need to observe this man and make his own assessment.]

Yes. [Brief pause.] Are there any known threats in this... tower? In terms of the inhabitants.

Aside from the monsters? There are the scientists, but they only make themselves known when they desire, and patrol robots, similar to what the Consortium used.

If there are those like us who are threats, they have yet to make themselves fully known. However, there is a case about a young man being manipulated to kill his friends, and he has no memory. I would advise caution for that.

[He nods in answer.] Scientists? Like the Doctors. [He didn’t know what the patrol robots were, but it sounded like some form of security. Similar to guards, perhaps.]

There were a number of threatening individuals at the facility. [He probably didn’t need to tell the other that, but the obvious had to be stated.] There is a possibility that the same would apply to… this location.

[Gaara quirks a brow at hearing that.] Understood. Trust continues to be a concern.

[He nods.] Sometimes, they apparently make themselves known to do experiments/surgeries, but have ways of disabling us.

Naturally. Still, not a lot of people have questioned our presence at all.

[Wait a minute.] Surgeries?

[He asks in a dry tone.] By forcing them into comatose states?

They seem to be… unusually understanding. [He shakes his head.] For that reason, I doubt their sincerity.

No. They paralyzed our bodies, and forced us all to observe each other being cut up.

Nothing understanding about that.

...That sounds similar to something the Doctors would have enforced. [There was that time they showed the video of terminated bodies being shoved into the incinerator.]

What do you mean?

They forced everyone to watch the surgeries, and forced everyone awake as they did so. Not only was it only used to enforce fear, but it's pointless in the long run if they wanted to try and enforce themselves as the supposed heroes.

Shock factor and fuel for rage and anger. That's all it was.

[His eyes narrow with irritation at hearing that.]

They are far from being "heroes." I don't believe their claim. They likely kidnapped everyone to fulfill a specific purpose.

Hmph. How frivolous.

That much is obvious, and clearly the most likely result. While we do need more evidence, it is clear they need to be stopped.

[He nods slightly, and then looks off to the side, as his attention is suddenly averted.]

...Ishtar is here. [He turns back to the screen.] We can speak at a later time.

Farewell, for now.
