I was awoken by a very loud noise startling me out of bed. I looked to where the noise was coming from and saw a speaker that looked like a megaphone on one of the corners of the room, it was blasting something like someone was talking.

" GET UP MAGGOT, ITS 8:00 AM IN THE MORNING! " a man said yelling into the device as I struggle to cover my ears. I then hear arguments through the speaker before it turned off being silent once again.

I got up, tiredness making its way to me as I walk to the bathroom. The bathroom looked like a normal bathroom with a good size shower and a mirror above the sink. I cleaned up the best I could and looked at myself in the mirror. I look more professional now as I straighten my tie. I still had yesterday's clothes on but they look decent enough to go out in public in. I made sure to put on a different mask, also cleaning my glasses to make sure they weren't dirty before putting them on.

As I walk out of the bathroom I saw miss Pauling looking at my desk. She seems interested at what I'm making than the paper I filled out before I went to bed.

" i see you have found one of my projects. interesting, is it not? " i ask as I go next to her.

She didn't say anything as she then took the paper from the desk, putting it in the folder she was holding.

" good morning scientist, I came in here to ask if you want breakfast. And to get the paper that I gave you. " she said pushing her glasses up to her face.

" I will gladly accept some breakfast " I said with a smile hidden by the mask.

I followed her out of my lab and down the stairs to the common area to see engineer making some pancakes and a few other things. I went to the table to see medic sitting in a chair reading a newspaper of sorts.

" gut morning scientist " medic said looking up from the paper he was reading. I sat next to him as I cleaned my glasses once again, seeing dust particles on them.

" morning medic " I said as I put my glasses back on.

" did jou sleep vell? "

" as well as a person could " I said nonchalantly while waiting for the food.

" good morning scientist, sorry about the rude wake up call, I tried to stop soldier from doin' that. "
engineer said apologetically while holding plates of pancakes and handed me one of the plates.

" it is alright engineer " I said plainly while looking for some silverware around the table.

" EVERYONE OF YOU MAGGOTS NEEDED TO GET UP " soldier said yelling as he got into the kitchen. I was startled, jumping a bit in my seat as engineer finally gave me my silverware as soldier stared at me.

" soldier stop screaming, it's giving me a headache " scout said as he walked in as well, making a sour face at me when he saw me.

" SCOUT YOU WOULDN'T KNOW HOW TO BREAK A SPINE FOR THE LIVE OF YOU " soldier said as it then became an argument between the two.

I ate my food in peace as Miss Pauling sits beside me. The rest of the team started to trickle in except two others. There were light conversations around the table lighting the mood up a little.

" so, you guys excited about getting contracts next week? " Miss Pauling said looking around the table at everyone. I lifted my head up as everyone turned from there conversation to look at Pauling.

" the first one will be with everyone including scientist so we can learn his skills and abilities "

" it vill be an interesting contract, zhat's for sure. " medic said drinking what looks like coffee in a mug.

" yea, it'll also be nice to get payed from it this time " engineer said with a small smile.

" yes, last time we did not " heavy said from where he was sitting at the table.

I continued to eat as they talked still listening into the conversation. Scout was staring at me the entire time but I was too tired to even care. As I finished my plate engineer started to walk towards me.

" hey scientist, will it be alright if medic and I come by your lab? We have a few things to discuss with ya. " he said smiling as he walked to me, picked up his and my plate.

" sure, I'll be working on a little something though while your there " I said as engineer and medic both got curious from my statement.

" vhat are you vorking on? " medic said raising an eyebrow.

" you'll know when you come to my lab " I said with a smirk as I got out of my seat and out of the common room.

As I walked down the hallway i got the feeling of someone watching me. I looked behind me to see no one there but just the hallway and me. I looked around with my eyes to make sure if I was just being paranoid before resuming down the hallway. 

Third person POV

As scientist walked further into the hallway, spy uncloaked when he was out of sight. Waiting for the footsteps to fade away. When they did he came out of his hiding spot and looked in the direction science was.

His mind replayed the scene that happened just moments ago. There faces were just a foot away from each other, as scientist looked around with just his eyes. He could see the tint of gold in them as he was still and quiet. There red mask moving whenever he took a breath in.

Spy pondered whether if scientist could actually sense if he was there or not. Spy then took a mental note about this and went to the common area.

Back to scientist's POV

When I finally made it back to my lab I made sure to lock it before going to my desk where my unfinished project laid. I quickly sat in the chair and began to work on it, 20 minutes in, finishing halfway through the second ear piece when a knock was heard from the door.
