Rogan Lash- Lethe- (B-05)- N/A- 9/1/2014- The Cave
Training with Shade had been good sport, Rogan knew he had certainly honed his combat skills to an impressive level, which made the challenge much more enjoyable when they clashed in a duel. Their sparring session had been interrupted, and eventually they moved to the conference room for what Lethe predicted to be an explanation of ground rules, since these had not been spoken about yet.
The laws laid down were basic and not too demanding: no aggression towards other teammates, training times, curfews applied to certain areas and meal times. Close attention Rogan paid towards the curfew times, making sure he wouldn't end up getting in trouble for staying out too late.
Following the meeting Lethe followed the crowd and investigated his quarters. It was fairly basic; a computer, bed, wardrobe and television sat in the bland white room. As Rogan pulled up the black leather chair to start up the computer the screen blinked twice and began to speak.
"Greetings Rogan Lash, and welcome to Mount Justice. I shall guide you through your personal quarters customisation process."
"Interesting," he muttered.
"Yes it is, isn't it. The programme is very complex, however I shall make it easy for you by giving you a few simple questions. Firstly, what kind of colour would you like your room to be?"
"Preferably black with a white border."
"Most certainly."
In wonder the young man stared as darkness crawled along the walls around the room, and the image that was conjured in his mind was projected almost perfectly over the concrete wall.
"And now, of course, your carpet."
"Would it be okay to have a charcoal grey sort-of hue?"
"I can select that shade exactly, master Lash."
Once again this system astonished Lethe. A series of hisses and futuristic sounds could be heard beneath the soft carpet as the deep, dark grey slowly grew across the floor and completed the image at the centre of the room.
"How did you... do that?"
"Very simple. The carpet was simply bleached and injected with an ink the colour you requested. The walls are slightly more intriguing, however. Between the bland concrete that shapes your room and the thick pane of glass around the perimeter is a fully interactive screen, accessible via this computing unit in front of you. I merely changed the image projected by this screen to what you wanted."
"Maybe I could ask for a few ribbons of crimson to drift around the black then?" Rogan asked, making full use of the functions he had at his fingertips.
Sure enough, smooth red waves started to drift dreamily around the room, almost like blood lapping in waves of ink. His room now truly looked homely, it suited him well and put him much more at ease.
"Would you like to proceed with the rest of your arrangements?" The programme continued.
"Sure, I'm quite enjoying myself," smiled Lethe. Something he did rarely.
