wowe look who's after me again
"Is she stable?" you ask one of the escorts quietly, as if you're afraid to wake up the motionless form of Deceb.
The escort nods and you relax a bit, walking over to the communication area.
"Deceb?" you speak into the system, and she looks up after a few moments. "I'm wondering if you can help us."
She sits upright and gets up unsteadily, walking over to the glass. "What is it?"
You shudder a bit at her heavily distorted robotic voice. "The suit-shifting system."
She gives a little smile and sits down in front of the glass. "What about it?" She seems eager to talk to someone. You again feel a stab of pity over her.
"I was wondering how it got the resources to change forms like it does."
Deceb looks up at the ceiling as if trying to remember something. After a few moments of looking around, she turns her attention back to you. "It takes in energy from the surrounding area and turns it into a solid object," she finally replies, shrugging as if it's not big deal.
You sit down in a chair, thinking. "Well, that's certainly impressive." You lean back a bit, wondering how she managed to accomplish something like that.
What now?
