The group of scientists looked in the room at the unconscious stranger on the bed from the window, "<<who is he?>>" one of the men asked, "<<the Imperial collaborator that's who he's somehow ended up here>>" one replied. "<<and so you drugged him and brought him back? What if the Empire or god forbid his government find out about this?>>" another said. "<<no worries on government Thomason is a spineless fool and won't risk the Alliance with this, but you do have a point Lavrenty Mikailovich the Empire is a concern". "<<is he even fully human? The captains report of the capture sounded like a fairy tale, the laser sword may be material evidence but telekinesis meets the case>>" another said, "<<what should we do? Wake him up and ask or interrogate?>>". "<<no, let him rest but when he does wake we'll have some questions, we can simply report it was debris from the battle that crashed of the Americans bet curious>>" the SBOR officer said.

Shawn didn't exactly hear or see much only a few voices here and there for what felt like an eternity until waking up to a bright light overhead, he winced his eyes from the light and tried putting his hand up but felt it was restrained by something as was the other, handcuffs, Shawn lifted his head looking at his surroundings, he was on a simple bed with white sheets with his jacket laying by his feet along with his gloves.A needle was in his arm with the small tube attached to a bag of clear liquid hanging nearby and a wire attacked to some sort of patch went down his shirt where his heart was connected to a heart monitor that beeped a normal rate just behind him.

Shawn's immediate reaction was fear but he stopped it that wouldn't help now, he looked around for his weapons but they weren't in the room. He sensed the presence of people nearby but didn't know where to look all the walls had the same shined brick pattern, the door behind him clicked and Shawn went back to pretending to be unconscious as it opened and two pairs of footsteps walked in. "<<I swear he was just moving sir>>" a mans voice said in Russian but Shawn didn't have the mental strength to try to use his ability to know what the man had said, "<<you see things doctor there's nothing>>" another deeper voice replied. Shawn decided he needed to know where he was and opened his eyes looking to the right at the two men.

One was a balding man in his fifties or so with a lab coat and large glasses, the other was a large imposing man wearing military fatigues and had the same blue beret as the other one he'd seen. "Who are you?" Shawn asked his voice scratchy for a second, "I think question should be who are you?" The man in the lab coat asked in English, "my name is Shawn where am I?" Shawn replied trying to sit up but failed to do so. "That is not a wise question it won't be answered if you don't answer" the military man said in a heavy accent, Shawn now noticed the pistol holstered to his belt, "now tell me Shawn where are you from?" The man in the lab coat asked taking the clipboard from under his arm and clicking the pen.

"I'm not gunna tell you" Shawn stated, "you're putting yourself closer to the firing squad with remarks like that" the military man warned. These people weren't Imperials they didn't appreciate delays especially deliberate ones, "Canada" Shawn replied and the man in the lab coat scribbled something down, "my name is Lavrenty Mikhailovich, this is my colleague Captain Nikita Davidov" Lavrenty said. "Where do your loyalty lie?" Lavrenty asked, "with your home country or the Empire". "My home obviously" Shawn replied, "how did you disarm one of Captain Davidovs men? His report says you waved your hand and the soldiers weapon was crushed" Lavrenty asked in his calm tone.

"You wouldn't understand" Shawn said back, "tell me anyway" Lavrenty, " the Force" Shawn answered, "what does it do?" Lavrenty asked. "You still won't-" Shawn started but Davidov cut him off, "answer it you little shit". Shawn decided an open show of what he could do would let them know keeping him here wouldn't be easy, "it does this" then pinched his fingers slightly closing Davidovs throat with the Force. The Captain gasped like he'd been punched in the stomach and his hand went to his throat as he began gasping for air.
