Ex Machina; Infiltration

Characters: Riki and the infiltration team
Setting: administrative levels
Format: any
Summary: Riki's efforts must be sabotaged. Stealth is the name of the game and time is of the essence.
Warnings: psychological horror

Though the chipped unit does not follow, he sees to it that the team advances the rest of the way. At the end of the lit corridor is a set of double doors, heavy-duty polished metal with small windows set into each one.

Through the windows, a massive machine is visible, connected to thousands of holographic screens that are hard to make out at the speed at which they're being manipulated. The machine sits in the center of the room and is networked to four elaborate terminals stationed along the walls via a complex tangle of panels, wires, and towers. Each of these terminals controls its own set of floating screens; the sheer amount of holographic monitors in the room is disorienting, and really, it's hard to tell what's connected to what.

In the chair in the middle of the enormous set-up is Riki, maneuvering all of the screens with the same ease with which most people breathe. His back is to the doors that lead into the room, and for the moment, he is utterly engrossed in his work.

Something not threatening. He can't suspect it's a distraction or a trap. We must seem as if we were down here to meet him.

*So basically, either something convenient or his normal form? Enoch wouldn't know what forms he has access to aside from the one in front of him.*

<I can morph human, though I won't have any shoes. But this is my normal form and it lets me have escape options, so this could work.>

All right, then. That form is likely best. Be prepared to flee if he attacks us. Though I hope he won't.

*At least...Tobias is the only one who even has a chance in that case. He's smaller and faster.*

<I can go for the eyes. I can't morph fast. It takes a few minutes.>

If his eyes are truly his eyes. *And blinding him may or may not do any good in the first place.* It might be best to simply fly away should it come to that.
