Robin, ignoring the teleporter right next to the note, grabs the piece of synthetic paper and tries to read what is written, however, something prevents him from doing so. He has literally no idea of what, though. Maybe it's the fact that he has to wait once again for the RPG to be updated, so he's able to read the entire thing? However, until then, he can't really make what is written up, even though he knows there is something written. He stares blankly at the paper, waiting for something to happen.

Marge picks up her drone and examines it, relieved to have finally found it. Considering how long it's been since she was frozen, Marge decides that the drone had run out of battery power, which means that it needs to be charged. She searches the room for the drone's charger and an outlet. If she finds both of those, she plugs the drone onto the charger, plugs the charger into the wall, and waits for the drone to finish charging.

(Once the drone is charged, I do get to control it, correct?)

-JAY-

Having your curiosity defeated your worries, you open the archive.

For a moment, your head is extremely nauseous. Everything you can see on your surroundings turns black for a brief moment, and when your vision is back, it's nothing like you were seeing before. You could not see the visible spectrum of light, but now you could see a faint purple light coming out of a window to the side of your closet. You can also see that a square shaped space of aproximately 6 square foot is glowing with the same kind of light on your floor.

-CASPER-

You take a better look on the closet, looking for anything that could be possibly useful, and you find an old switchblade made out of Sternum. You can remember you hid it from the ship's inspection crew, since Sternum was not recognized by the inspection scans of the ship. You never know what kind of situation you will be facing, so you take it with you. Better safe than sorry.

Sternum is a metal that was artificially created on the year of 1193 by the Western Mega Nation for the sake of building the ship. It was supposedly so strong that one string with the diameter of a strand of hair could hold a whale above, and even the properties of the speed of light would not be able to modify it. However, something was overlooked: it was so strong that to smelt it, the temperature required would melt everything around. Luckily, since you participated on the war, you got to be one of the testers of that new metal for military use. The switchblade is a relic of one of the few experiments with Sternum that actually worked.

-GREEN-

You look at the contents of the paper note:

"Hello Green. You have been chosen by the ship's crew to participate on an especific biologic research. During the 50 years you have been on stasis, we came by a planet with conditions to inhabit some life. Plant life could be found on the surface of that planet, and our scientists were able to collect a few samples.
We acknowledged your need of being in symbiosis with nature due to the environment you lived your whole life on, and since we are looking for the well being of all our crew members, we are willing to give you the opportunity to be in touch with nature again. You may be surprised at what you see.

We hope to see you soon,
The ESTO-24 crew."

The letter had the official government symbol stamped on it, so you are sure it's official.

-BEAT-

You reluctantly open the archive, afraid of what could possibly happen. A holographic 2D screen appears in front of you, displaying the following:

[] [] []
[] [] []
[] [] []


Some brief seconds after this is displayed, the image changes:

[] X []
[] [] []
[] [] []
Y O U R  T U R N


-ROBIN-

You read the synthetic paper's contents:
Image
You can remember this... It's the sheet of the first song you played with Saturn. Memories start flowing back to your head after reading it, and you can remember your moments with him and Carmine. Ah, how you miss both of them.

Your portable teleporting device's screen starts glowing. It seems to be functioning normally again.

-MARGE-

You find a charging pod above your bed especifically designed for drones. It's adaptable, so you would have no need to worry about it only working with most recent models of drones. You place your companion by the side of the charging station, and let the new technology of magnetic electricity transferring do its work. In little less than 3 minutes, your drone's battery was fully charged. How technology has changed, indeed. It turns on, and all its systems were restored. It now functions just how it did years ago.


(You can control your drone's actions now as well)

-TANIA-

You put your clothes on. It was the most confortable feeling in the world, after you passed through the extreme cold inside the stasis pod. You also decide to check your closet. As you open the door, you can see some things that caught your attention, such as a photograph of you and a woman that looked a little younger. Unfortunately, you could not remember who she was, and when this happened. You can also see a real paper note at the side of this photograph.

After reading the note, Green was above all impressed. He was already aware that he was one of the younger passengers of the ship, and he hadn't expected to be noticed because of it. But here he was being offically called in simply to help his own well-being.

That said, he was secretly hoping he'd get told how to turn the teleporter on. So he resorted to just poking at it, assuming that something might actually happen if he keeps it up for long enough. He had to leave now anyway if he was wanted, so there was no time to waste.

There's gotta be more around here... just in case. Knowing myself I don't think this was the only thing I left behind.

Casper takes a closer inspection at his bed, especially under the pillow.
Expect something cool here soon!

(Just as a reminder, I use green text to indicate when someone is speaking in Marge's native language.)

Green lights on the drone turn on. A polite male voice starts coming from its tiny speakers. "Good morning, Marge. I trust that you slept well last night?" After a short pause, the drone says, "...oh wait, you haven't slept for a night, you've been in cryogenic stasis for... how many years?"
     "It's been fifty years, I think." Marge says.
     "Hm, that wasn't as long as I thought. Anyway, I'm sorry for that mistake. The passage of time must have done something to my rewritable memory, because information stored in there isn't loading as quickly as it used to. That's why I initially didn't remember the events that you told me to remember."
     Great, her drone's starting to get faulty. Marge hopes that the only issue it has is the slow memory retrieval, otherwise she's got a problem on her hands. "At least you still work." she says. At this point, she gets an idea: Her memories are still muddy, and she doesn't trust the chip, but one thing she knows for sure is that there's plenty of memories stored in her drone. Even back when her parents bought it, it was outdated by some amount of time. Marge can't remember the year it was produced, but she does know that it was back when the technology to store extremely large amounts of data in small chips was expensive enough for the company that produced the drone to cut costs by using far smaller data storage for the drone's memory. This meant that the drone's memory would get maxed out in a few minutes if it constantly recorded its memories, so the company thought of a clever workaround: the drone would only store memories that you ask it to remember; all other memories will stay in its RAM and get deleted to make more space, which effectively gives the drone a single-minute memory span. There's also a neat feature where it will use unallocated memory as additional RAM in order to increase its memory span, but now Marge's thoughts are getting off topic. Basically, she must have told the drone to remember quite a bit of information fifty years ago. If she asks the drone to recite all of its stored memories, Marge's memories will become clearer. There won't be many memories in the drone, but it should be enough to help her memory. She says "Hey, can you recite all of your stored memories to me?"
     The drone says, "Sure.", then it starts playing back each of its stored memories.

I suppose it did say ultra violet for a reason. Jay looks through the window of the closet to the source of the light.

Robin, noticing the teleporter is working again, grabs it and inspects it for a while, trying to remember how to use it. After pressing random buttons, the teleporter starts to glow. Something's about to happen.
