The next morning, Rocky slowly gets out of bed and goes to shower. After a few moments, he becomes aware of the smell of food cooking. He pulls back the shower curtain, coming face to face with Jennifer.
She kisses him quickly. "Breakfast will be ready soon. Sasha is helping me since I can not really.. see the food."
Rocky smiles. "That is very thoughtful of her."
Jennifer smiles. "She seems very excited we had a pleasant night."
Rocky raises an eyebrow before pulling the curtain all the way open.
Jennifer glances him over with a smile.
"Liking a better view?" Rocky asks.
Jennifer nods, biting her lip. "The view just keeps getting better."
Rocky steps out. "Your turn?"
Jennifer chuckles. "I suppose I do need it." She steps into the shower.
Rocky gets dressed and walks to the kitchen, seeing Sasha working over the stove. She is humming happily.
"What has you in such a good mood?" Rocky asks.
Sasha turns with a smile. "You're happy and thusly I am."
"Is that really how this works now?" Rocky asks.
Sasha nods. "I could feel all the.. tension.. last night. In my defence, I did my best to ignore it."
"So.. was this your plan, getting us together?" Rocky asks.
"Is it not what you wanted?" Sasha asks in rebuttal.
Rocky nods. "Yes. Thank you."
"You are welcome!" Sasha twirls happily around to finish cooking.
Jennifer walks out of the bathroom in a towel, drying her long curly hair with another.
After what seems like a feast of a breakfast, Rocky, Jennifer, and Sasha meet Iris, Cain, Doctor Therman, Doctor Collingwood, and 999 in the hall.
They walk together to the second floor.
"I don't know about this.." Doctor Collingwood says worriedly.
"Trust me. After this, 682 will be like a giant kitty cat." Rocky smiles.
"With teeth and claws, don't forget those. He is no SCP-1990, 529, nor 247, one of which will tear you a new.. hole." Doctor Therman urges.
Rocky continues to smile. "I am well aware. The palmtop tiger."
"Personally I enjoy that particular SCP." Cain comments.
"Oh, sure! Like the dangerous ones, dislike the cute cuddly safe ones!" Sasha says. tapping her foot. "Can we go?! The anticipation is killing me!"
They make their way to 682's containment cell, making contact with the officers and utility workers.
Jennifer looks up at the hole, still present in her future sight.
"What is the plan, boss?" The foreman asks.
"When I say move in, do so. Do not make eye contact with 682 and work fast." Rocky says, turning to the chief officer. "Your men have moved SCP-683, correct?"
"Much to our displeasure, but yes." The Sergent replies.
"Standby. In the event of a full containment breach, you have permission to act. Otherwise, you are to remain here and not enter the arena nor the containment cell." Rocky orders.
"What if he overpowers you?!" Iris asks.
Rocky shrugs. "I will figure it out when I get to that point." He keys up his radio. "Open 682 arena door."
