EOD COMPLEX HALL
The complex is truly the same as ever, only dirty and in disrepair. The brilliant, reflective gray metal plates and pure white halogen lights that used to illuminate the hall are now rusty and covered in a light layer of ocher. The automated doors have not worked since the deactivation of Danger, so doors are kept open at all times. Still, the Hall is one of the most secure places in the wasteland, hidden under tons of metal and concrete, always kept at the right temperature and possessing power 24 hours a day. The halls are patrolled three man teams of Company soldiers during the day, but remain mostly abandoned at night.
X-Men EoD Time
Wednesday, August 13th
Vlad sneezed as he stepped from the elevator into the dingy complex, his arm rising to contain the gale to the inside of his elbow. Sniffing, he ducked his head out of the lift and continued directly to
EoD War Room, ignoring the Company soldiers utterly, as he did most every morning.
Lire slipped into the hallway and wandered down into the
EoD Armory She wasn't inside for very long before she stepped back outside. She was bored; and she snuck a glance at the company soldiers half hoping that they would pick a fight before she went back the way she came to the
EoD Foyer After a little while Lire stepped off the elevator and entered the hallway. This time she went straight to the
EoD War Room and slipped inside.
Coming from the War Room,
Vlad marched directly, almost robotically, up the path, passed the soldiers on duty, and into the elevator, which he then took to
EoD Hall 1st.
Endelyn walked slowly through from the first hall, walking at a pace that Catherine could easily keep up with. She headed into the
EoD War Room, as she was ordered to by Vlad.
Catherine had no problem keeping up as they walked toward the
EoD War Room, the blue haired girl now actually quite curious about what they'd be doing. "Time to work I guess."
Rushing,
Vlad crossed hurriedly into
EoD War Room.
Keeping up his pace,
Nathan made it for the
EoD War Room.
Elizabeth quickly marched into
EoD War Room. She returned not that long afterwards to head back to
EoD Hall 1st.
Lire emerged from the War Room and made her way to the
EoD Hall 1st
Endelyn came out from right behind her, following the same path leading into
EoD Hall 1st.
Coming from the War Room after what seemed like an eternity in there,
Vlad strode into the hallway, still coughing a little into his fist as he made his way towards
EoD Armory to make sure that they could outfit themselves. His large hand closed around the handle and then he pushed the door open, a shrill scrape of protesting hinges grinding as he left the entry open for his fellow X-Men as they were probably close behind.
Following not too far behind the large Russian,
Nathan slipped into the hall, falling slightly behind as Vlad cleared the hall at a decent pace with his longer strides. Nathan wasn't much of the type to press his pace just to match someone else. With Vlad already having opened the door, he stepped in to the
EoD Armory.
Unlike Nathan,
Catherine felt like it was better to rush, but still ended up entering the
EoD Armory behind him. It wasn't like she knew what she'd be getting anyway.
It was only after the door shut completely behind his massive frame that
Vlad walked the short distance from the Armory into
Eod Infirmary and quietly slipped in through the swinging door, making sure to still it with his hand so that no one would know he hadn't gone immediately upstairs.
Shortly after the door had closed safely behind Vlad,
Catherine headed out, wondering how the large Russian man was so fast for his size. She shrugged, and leaned against a wall, waiting for Nathan to head out as well.
Nathan stepped out of the infirmary, a serious scowl drawn on his face. A look that would have been highly out of character for him nine years ago. Things had gotten rough, but Nathan had gotten used to that by now. He knew that he was becoming a dog for the military, and that was being made blatantly clear by the actions of some of the others around here. There was no mistake to him that Vlad had already become a 'Yes man' for the Military. He still valued what little freedom that he had. He turned to look at Catherine, his face barely lightening up to a forced smile, "Are you ready for this?"
As
Vlad came out into the hall and saw his team dilly-dallying
, he gave each of them a hard look. "Come on, then," he said, blinking and heading towards the elevator, holding onto his helmet with a finger looped through the chin-strap. He pushed the button to call the elevator and it opened instantly, the doors pulling back with a bit of a crunching squeak. Though the rest of the complex hall was old and forgotten, the elevator and all parts involved therein had been made special to accommodate Vlad plus others since it saved everybody lots of time. So, he faced outward and waited inside for them to join, wearing his game-face, so to speak. Aaaaaaaand then the doors shut and he pushed the button, no longer waiting around for his nonexistent team as the door panned shut and hauled his giant ass to EoD Foyer.
With Vlad thundering through the hall, Nathan decided it was best to move on without getting an answer from Catherine. He waited until the towering Russian cleared out of the hall and then planned his own exit, heading over to the elevator for the EoD Hall 1st, taking it up.
Soon after Nathan, Catherine made her way up to the EoD Hall 1st.
