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.

[Hearing that sound, Minato snaps in the direction he heard it from and quickly moves to try and cover her mouth. In the dark, he can feel his hand on top of another person's hand, most likely someone else's attempt to cover Yukiko's mouth.]

[...Yeah, that's a snort. Veronica didn't need heightened hearing to pick that up.

She sat there in the dark silence, listening for any possible movements from far away. She could easily pick out the others in the group trying to cover Yukiko's mouth.

We should go now, before we get caught. [She whispered, loud enough for the rest to hear.]

Yeah, let’s get out of here.

[He can already tell Yukiko’s been muffled, so he simply whispers his thanks to whoever covered her mouth and then starts tugging her in the direction out of there as quick as he can manage.]

[It's a really good thing it's dark, because Yukiko's embarrassed. At least the giggle fit's over almost as fast as it started, for once.

Of all the times, she thinks, frowning inwardly.]
