Welcome to the Program

Good Morning, Champions. In the interest of maintaining healthy sleep patterns, a day/night cycle is in effect. Your presence is expected in the cafeteria in exactly one hour.

[The voice comes through not a large speaker, but through the device that's attached to each Champion's arm. Further investigation of the features of the device will reveal a list of profiles, a mini-map, and a list of rules. The hallways are shiny white and silver, with running lights along the floor and lights on the ceiling, and at the junction of the hallways is a sign with a knife and fork icon and an arrow pointing down the hall.

Welcome to the Excellence Program, Champions. Time to get to know your teammates.]

I've seen some teenagers, but... [and it clearly troubles him that he realizes there are kids here]

So what do we do, since none of us know why we're here?

[newcycle]

... I guess we use the only clue we have, which is meeting people in the cafeteria.

[honestly? She might need to be held back.]

[andjerry]

Let's- let's go. We need to know why we're really here. You might be excellent at something if you're supposed to save people, but how does being here help?

[newcycle]

Trust me, I want to know as badly as anyone. I really need to get home.

[he's waited to get started walking, but starts to step away a bit, encouraging her to move with. She's Carol's age, and he can see some of that same hardness in her: but he has to be a little stronger when they're both scared.]. I need to, too. My sister and I just lost a friend, and she needs somebody there for her.
