I woke up feeling like shit as I opened my eyes. I looked around the room for medic before sitting up feeling more like shit than before. I felt my face for my glasses as I couldn't feel them. My mask was still on as I could feel the fabric of it. I looked to the cart next to me filled with scattered surgical tools and could see a pair of glasses. I put the glasses on making sure they were mine as I looked around at my body and clothes to see nothing. I then heard footsteps approach me, I turned around to see medic with a grin on his face.

" welcome back scientist, zhe surgery went wunderbar! " medic said happily as I rubbed my eyes after taking my glasses off.

" how do you feel? " he questioned as he got closer to me to look me over.

" I feel like shit " I plainly said with a bit of tiredness in my voice as I put my glasses back on. Medic chuckled a little by my statement as he looked at me.

" zhat's a normal feeling to have scientist. " he said with a smile as he helped me off the gurney. I wobbled a little before composing myself and standing straight as I put my hands behind my back.

" Miss Pauling is waiting for you in your laboratory upstairs. Follow me. " he said with a smile as we walked out of the med bay and walked down the hallway even more once again.

We then get to some stairs that go up as we past many doors with class logos on the door. Maybe that's where they sleep. We then went upstairs to two doors with a window to see inside, a panel with a bunch of number on it, on the left side of the doors, seeing as though a passcode is needed to get in. Medic moved aside so I could put the passcode in, I remember Miss Pauling gave me a small piece of paper that had four numbers on it. I memorized it since it could be proofed useful in the future. That future is now as I put in the code, 8068.

The doors finally opened as I could see miss Pauling standing in the middle of the humongous room that is now mine. I looked around the room in full detail. The walls were white with many little lights hanging down and floor was a light grey. There was a desk with all kinds of science equipment with a small lamp that could be turned a certain way for the light to hit an object and I assume the tools are in the drawers that are connected to it, it also had a very comfortable looking office chair with wheels at the bottom. At the far end of the room I could see a king size mattress that lays on a floating piece of the white wall looking sturdy enough for me to lay down on and on the side was a small dresser with a lamp on top. There was also a door that I could only assume was to the bathroom or as I call it, washroom. I could also see the many boxes I had in the moving truck stacked in top of each other in one area. I could see my personal items placed by the desk as I can only assume Engineer put them in here.

" like the new place? " Miss Pauling ask having a smile on her face.

" it's huge zhat's for sure " medic said admiring the place.

" indeed " I said impressed with how, in such a short time, could a woman like miss Pauling could ever do this.

" you can give the passcode to any of the others if you wish too. And make sure it's people you trust. " she said sternly to me like I was a child.

I nodded my head regardless as I walk to the desk and could see a small clock with the time, 6:23.

" I believe it's almost dinner time, and it's spy's turn to cook. Guten Tag Ihnen scientist " medic said as he turned to leave.

It was just me and miss Pauling now as she walked to me as I went to sit in the office chair.

" are you going to join the team for dinner? " Pauling said as she gave me a sheet to fill out about myself.

" sadly no, I don't eat much " I said as I grab a pen from one of the drawers. Then the conversation ended with her leaving the room as well.

I set the pen down and looked around the room again. This room must be the weight of a house. I then got up from the chair and went to start unpacking the boxes.

In the common area

Miss Pauling entered and saw everyone eating at the table in the kitchen. She went to grab a plate and some food. She then went to sit next to medic because soldier was yelling at spy about what food is American food.

" is scientist not coming to eat? " engineer said a little concerned about the new team member.

" he said he doesn't eat much so I let him stay in his lab. " Miss Pauling said taking a bite of food from her plate.

" but dinner is the most important meal of the day! " soldier said ending the argument with him and spy.

" that's breakfast soldier " engineer said correcting him.

" I'll have to admit, he's an interesting person to be around. " medic said as he ate.

" doesn't seem that interesting to me " scout said with a hard look, mumbling something under his breath.

" interesting how? " sniper asked as he looked at medic.

" well for starters, he doesn't talk much and isn't use to physical contact. Like you. " medic said with a smug grin on his face.

" hey! " sniper said as a few of the others snickered at the statement medic made.

" but with all seriousness, he's very intelligent. Even with his wording and his behavior. " medic said as he started eating again.

" Miss Pauling, do you know the origins of scientist? " spy ask as he looked at Miss Pauling.

" he wants that to be private between me, him, and medic. He will talk about that when he feeling comfortable. " she said finishing her plate.

" well I'm looking forward to meeting him in person " spy said as he also finishes his plate.

Back to scientist

I looked at the small clock on my desk as it was almost 10 pm. I finally finished unpacking as I was now sitting at the desk in the office chair picking at the food engineer came by to drop off that was prepared for dinner. I wasn't really hungry so I set it aside and started to get to work on something I've been wanting to work on for a while. I grabbed the blueprints for it and a small screwdriver from one of the drawers before grabbing a few more things before starting. It was a pair of googles that can enhance my vision to see small objects. It can be useful when I have to screw tiny screws or working on a small project. I already had a few of the materials needed for this project like the lenses I custom made for it while I still lived in that apartment. I could only finish one of the ear pieces before it was midnight and I went to the mattress that's now my bed. I really need bed covers for this. I laid down not bothered to put on any sleep wear as I fell into a peaceful sleep.
