After taking a bath, Aaron made his way to the Capsule room. Lina said that the other three was already here earlier and Aaron was the last one to arrive. Somehow or another, he finally arrived at the destination after ten minutes of walking and asking questions where to go. It seemed like Lina was planning to come with him, but he'd done what he shouldn't have, so there really was no option after it.
"Is he the one?" Some guy in a black suit said after seeing Aaron enter the front door.
"I guess he is," blonde hair replied. "You sure he's useful?"
"Well," the guy paused. "He wouldn't be chosen if he wasn't."
"Wanna bet?" blonde hair retaliated.
"Erm," Aaron butted in. "Are you perhaps, talking about me?"
Blonde hair shifted his eyes to him, grinning. "Sorry, we're just kidding."
The guy in a black suit sighed. "I'm Roderick, your advisor. Nice to meet you Aaron, we've heard about you."
A girl, sitting next to Lina spoke. She looked quite serious -- rim glasses, elegant sitting pose and a coffee on her hand. "Aaron Roosevelt -- scored 89/100 points in the test. Though you have the intellect, your physical capabilities aren't that..." she cocked her head. "good."

"Umm," and you are?"
"Oh, forgive me. I'm Lisa Smith. I scored 92 points."
Blonde hair stepped in. "Laurence Clover, third son of Martin Clover, the CEO of LINK Company. It's a pleasure."
Aaron's eyes ran wild. "Ah, yeah, me too." He wasn't used to this kind of conversation. Plus, Laurence Clover? Even the son of CEO was here.
Peering his eyes around, Aaron realized there were only four of them around, excluding Roderick. That was until he tilted his head and saw a hooded guy in the farthest back.
"Eric!" Roderick shouted. "Come over here and introduce yourself," He received no response. That Eric guy was too absorbed in his PSP and doesn't seem to plan to take it off his hands anytime soon. "Eric Ford. He's usually like that, so don't mind him. Once he opens up, it'll go smooth sail from there," he scratched his beard. "You and Lina must've--"
"Yeah," Lina interrupted. "We've met. Quite a rude guy, I must say. He called me a slut on our first meeting."
"What?" Aaron arched his eyebrows. "Don't take it out of context!" He caught Lisa pulling herself back with a disgusted look on her face.
"Bleeeh!" Lisa gave him a smug exp'ression and stuck out her tongue.
"Look, I'm sorry," Aaron muttered. "bitch."
The atmosphere suddenly became a blizzard. "What the fuck did you just call me?"
"Nothing, my lady. It was rude of me to call you a slut or a bitch. Why don't you stop doing things that could cause misunderstandings in the first place? My. Lady."
"Fine," she said coldly. "Chicken."
"Ahem," Roderick interrupted. This cold atmosphere could cause a spark in the team later on, which would be troublesome. "Shall I explain the situation now?"
