*Wandering the hallways further, it was clear to the teen that he was making circles. Frustrated at how much everything looked the same, he stopped for a minute to sigh deeply.* Next time I bring bread crumbs or something. *Having mentioned food in his own thoughts, his stomach responded by rumbling slightly* I could go for a nice loaf of bread right now. Oh! Better yet, a sandwich!
*Thinking of turning to go eat, he instantly recalled not only being lost, but that he couldn't keep wasting time heading to the cafeteria every five seconds. Not bother to think of why he was so hungry, the boy continued on his way. Roughly five minutes later, and slightly late, the teen finally came to the training area. Thanks to the help of finally breaking down and asking directions when he found someone, with several detours, he had found his way there.
Shoving three empty candy wrappers into the back pocket of his shorts as he entered, he was a bit surprised when the rest of the group was already there.* I still have a lot of time! *Looking to his watch real quick, he saw he still had around 16 minutes. Not equating the math in his head about how wrong that would be, he just shrugged it off and began looking more around the room. With a grin of excitement, he absorbed into his mind what his new teammates looked like.*

Robert Flowers stood there as he watched the last of the "recruits" hurry in. He was a patient man, but 0900 meant 0900. "Now that everyone is finally here," he said, emphasizing finally, "I'll get straight to it. By now, all of you should be at least somewhat aware of why you were brought here and what has happened to you. When you were first brought here, you were exposed to powerful energy source known as Omega Energy, whose source lies within a realm whose entrance is on Earth."
Flowers paused for a moment and looked over the five young men and women, judging them each individually and how well they were taking the information he choose. "In short, your job is to protect Earth from any dangers OE, however in directly, may present." he paused for a second time to let them all absorb it.
"But before we get to that, I want to test your abilities. This room," Flowers motioned with his hand, "is a high tech training facility were you all can hone your skills." He walked out of the room with his staff and security guards, and made his way to the small observation and programming area close by. "Begin" he said into the microphone.
Damnit. what's he thinking? Hiro thought after Flowers was done talking and had left the room. He wasn't quite sure what "old flame" was up too. He he had kept quiet during Flowers short speech, realizing that Flowers was leaving out bits of information and only giving the information the new recruits needed to know for the time being.
Hiro's mind raced back to the present, trying to realize what the commander meant. He knew this was holographic training area, but was dumbfounded that the commander hadn't activated the projectors, figuring that the others didn't know where they were at nor what was going on. Neither did he right now, quite frankly. "This isn't good." Hiro said under his breath.
((Forgot what I was originally was going to say with Flowers. I'll clean it up a bit later. 3nodding ))

*Grinning bigger, though more in a cheesy "oops" way, he waved a motion to the obvious scowling man who was upset that he was late. A bit embarassed at being late, he quickly checked his clock again.* Late?! I'm early. Eh, whatever. Was worth it to score some more of those delicious candy bars from the cafeteria area.
*Standing with the others, he tried his best to follow along with what Robert was saying. His eyes couldn't help but wander around, scanning the odd room they were in and the people he was now with. This would be the group he would have to get along with. While not exactly the various possibly oddities that he was expecting, it still was exciting for him to just who they were and what their stories were.
He was also interested in the "old man" who continued to talk, though not so much in his words at to what type of person he would be. Thinking of several teachers he had trouble with, a shiver went down his spine as he feared the possibility of yet another Mrs. Crabapple. The staunchy, military feel didn't seem to help this impression. Watching him finish up and leave, the teen wasn't fully prepared for what was next. Simply figuring that they would be shuffled somewhere else and briefed on some boring thing or another.
Suddenly, he heard one of the other people groan out in pain and begin complaining about something. Looking over to see what the crazy person was on about, the lights dimmed down and became too dark for his eyes to adjust to.* Look I'm on board with this whole free-labor-for-powers deal, but couldn't you guys afford the electric bill? *Raising an eyebrow, he wasn't expecting to suddenly be hit by something and sent onto the ground.
Hitting the floor, he wondered why one of his own teammates just hit him, not understanding that the room had holograms and the general chaos being created.* This hazing initiation better count towards college. No way am I doing this again for Chi Theta Latte *Getting up, he rubbed his eyes and tried to see better in the darkness.*

((Sai, your character shouldn't be able to do that. Nothing in Ryu's profile indicates enhanced instincts, so being able to distinguish between what is a hologram and what is one of the others is too far fetched in this case. Change your last post please.))
*Blinking a few times and watching the zebra-like monster pass by, the teen adjusted himself to what just happened. Glad it didn't hit him on the way, he stopped running and stood for a moment. Rubbing his cheek area where he was roundhouse kicked, it still felt a bit sore.* Well, at least they are fighting each other and not me.
*Resting for a moment and looking around, his now mostly-adjusted eyes noticed all sorts of monsters around. Despite all the monsters, there was no sign of other people like those he was teamed up with. Questioning the reason to this, he sighed a bit.*
Maybe this is why I was never allowed to have unlimited amounts of chocolate for breakfast. Nevermind a stomach ache, the sugar-induced hallucinations are way too vivid. *As he was busy not fighting, another holographic monster came jumping down at him, hitting him in the back with both arms and causing him to fall onto the floor once more.
Slowly getting up, he looked to his attacker. It was similar to the second monster, but was clearly mixed with a grasshopper. Before he could utter another line, he immediately had to roll out of the way as it jumped up and tried to land on top of him.
Spinning and trying the same roundhouse kick that was used on him moments ago, he did a poor job of it, but landed it on the monster. Staggering back, the monster was suddenly met by a crazy drop kick attempt which knocked it off it's feet.
Getting up, he smirked confidently and cocky that he had finally knocked something on it's a** instead of it happening to him. Turning to see the other monsters fighting and brimming with confidence, he ran towards the zebra-looking one that ignored him and went to do a drop kick into it as well*
