The chance of it happening was astronomic however, Conrad Archer was a busy and important man. He dined with presidents, ambassadors and other important powerfull men and women. This was probably the first and last time you'd ever meet the man in person.<br/>"My secretary will have to remain here, but I have arranged for our Proteus Staff Liason to come and take care of you. And here she is, right on cue." Conrad smiled and gestured at the woman just entering the room. She was dressed in an expensive and stylish buisness suit, with a skirt that almost seemed a little to short. She had long, thick, red hair, and seemed to be in her early thirties, she was quite pretty.<br/>"Allow me to introduce Susan Black," Conrad said, and then he bid the team a quick farewell, turning to the next item on his agenda as the team was rushed out of the room by the Staff Liason.<br/>"Now, as you all heard, my name is Susan Black, but you may all call me Sue," the woman said with a thick Scottish accent. "If you'll all follow me we'll get you sorted in no time. And if you have any questions, feel free to ask them as we move along."<br/>Sue led them to the elevators, and once you all entered one, she pressed the button for one of the lower levels. Veronica could feel the trace of some strange energy she'd never felt before once she entered the elevator, it made her skin crawl. A quick glance around revealed that she probably was the only one feeling it, as none of the others looked uncomfortable. It must have to do with her affinity for machines and different kinds of energy. It didn't feel like Aberrant Taint, the feeling wasn't sickening, but it definetly didn't feel like something of this world.<br/>"As you may know," Sue Black continued, "both Neptune and Triton Headquarters are connected to the Chicago public-transit system. We have our own top modern subway station in one of the lower levels, and that's where we are going." She led you all out of the elevator and soon you were in the waiting hall of a quite busy subway station, complete with food vendors, small stores and everything. You didn't stay long, however. Sue used her ID card to open a door labled "Employees only" and quickly ushered you all in. As you walked down a long corridor you could hear the noise from the station grow feinter and feinter. Soon you arrived at another Subway platform, but with only two tracks. One one of the tracks a top modern bullet train was waiting, and this platform felt quite deserted compared to the other one, you couldn't see any people.<br/>"This is a part of our own, private subway," Sue said proudly. "No one knows of it's existance, least of all the people in the FSA goverment, and that's the way we want to keep it. If you'll please step this way." Sue led you all aboard the train, and almost as soon as you got settled the train came to life and started accelerating.<br/>"Exciting, isn't it?" Sue said with a grin.
