Deep Dweller: Start
After the dreams some of the voidtreckers report on day Four of Grasshopper those that have been on the train for a little while will be expecting what comes the next day. Their SCA's glow with the colour of the void and a holographic image will appear.
Preparations and Arrival
As promised the dressing carriage is opened for optional extras. There are flight suits, similar to those they wore into space but without the helmets. There are instead hard hats and some basic climbing gear as well as bags to put supplies in. There are even a few red tents if any of those planning on tackling red's mission want to grab one, they hold six people in two inner compartments and are relatively easy to put up and take down.
They have a few hours of preparation before the announcement comes. Soon approaching system #789327772. Planet Terra. Drop order: Orange, Red, Blue, Purple. Orange to doors. Leaving the void in ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. A sharp jerk, a judder and the view from the window changes from the void to dark cloudy skies and very red sand.
They land smoothly, and indeed it seems they have landed on train tracks. A few moments later they pull up outside a huge metal and glass building.
Orange Team
Arrival
Jumping down from the train they will find themselves outside large metal gates. Noticable is the spotlights that shine even in the day time, reflecting oddly off the red sand. It is hot and dry outside, a slight breeze sending red dust rolling around their feet.
The gates aren't locked. There is no lock though they will notice devices that are probably security cameras. The doors are glass and inside is light and airy. They enter into a large lobby, a large circular desk in the centre and a glass walled waiting room to the side.
It is empty. No people at all. All the lights are on. Time to explore.
Exploration
Going up two floors and down five the lab is large and full of all manner of interesting things. Scientific equipment, monitoring stations measuring chemical levels in the air, temperature, water levels. Where to even start is a good question. The lights remain on, which might be annoying at night.
Red Team
Arrivals
Red team to doors. The train continues travelling along the train tracks, looking out the windows they will see endless rolling red sand. Factories rising up from the ground, dotted across the landscape. As the train gets close the air outside seems hazier, through the fumes. They may even see in the distance, strange silver floating orbs.
Eventually it pulls up at a station. Just a raised block really, but easy enough for red team to disembark.
The land stretches out around them. Train tracks criss cross the surface but apart from that there don't seem to be any boundaries. No fences, roads or sign posts.
It won't take them long to find the first orbs, strange silvery spheres and seem almost liquid, until they are not.
Night Time
It grows dark quickly after sunset here, which might take them by surprise. Taking them more by surprise however may be the scraping, scuttling noises in the dark. Skittering close. There is no light out here on the surface, they are far away from the research facility that Orange found themselves in.
If anyone manages to catch a glimpse they will see grey, long limmbed creatures. They shy away from light but anyone in the dark is likely to be attacked. They fight with claws and teeth.
When the sun rises they are gone.
Blue Team
Arrival
Blue team to doors. The train continues across the landscape, passing more orbs, just floating there silently. It stops at the entrance of a cave.
The cave slopes downwards into darkness and soon turns into small tunnels. They don't need to go far when they meet the first ground of Gry. A group of young Gry, practising with spears in an wider section of cave.
Despite being very surprised at the sudden visitors no weapons are pointed at the voidtreckers, instead they are met with curiosity. They are soon led further into the tunnels and soon come to the living areas.
The Gry lead simple lives but they are all pretty fascinated to see their visitors and will allow them to look around their home and answer any questions they have.
Night Time
Most of the Gry sleep in a large communal sleeping area and the Voidtreckers are welcome to join them, though the Gry won't be insulted if they choose to seek out a more private area.
If the Voidtreckers awake in fear in the night, after strange dreams they will find they are not alone. Many of the Gry have awoken too and will reassure the Voidtreckers, tell them it is an honour to communicate with The Burrower.
Purple
Arrival
Purple team to doors. The train continues on the tracks and soon enters a tunnel itself. It's a bit of a bumpy trip, this train was clearly not made for warren systems but after some uneasy twists and turns they pull to a stop.
They are at a train station, not that it's easy to see because it is pitch black. But it is clear there are people around, some looking very confused at the very odd train.
Once the last of those going on the mission leave the train it speeds off into the darkness.
The Terran's are large and tower over most of the voidtreckers but they are friendly enough, if a little confused, once it is explained that they are here to help. They will be led over towards the collapsed section of city.
There is a lot of activity. People digging at rubble, others using their sheer size and strength to hold up beams. There is an array of rescue equipment and a group of official-looking Terran's holding large devices that are comparable to a tablet-computer and discussing solutions.
There is plenty to do to help, smaller rubble to clear, injured people to tend to. Worried Terran's to calm and reassure. Those brave enough can volunteer to use their smaller size to help get supplies through to those trapped and those with any scientific know how, great strength or magic can put their skills to good use.
Rest Time
Throughout the day people are rescued and other parts of the tunnels stabilised. There is more work to be done but the Terran's seem to be working in shifts and they will encourage their surprise allies to rest as well. They will offer to host them.
They live in large groups and will happily invite the voidtreckers into their homes. They will be curious about the voidtreckers but will also answer questions. Telling them about the strange storm and the collapse of the tunnels. They are urged to sleep early and the next day it will be back to work.

Which IS what Tidus had been banking on, but hey!
And Nita, who is pretty sure Yugi and Kaiba aren't 'only' friends, has to suppress most of her smile at that.
"It doesn't surprise me Kaiba'd ask, either."
Hefting her pack, she adds, "Anything else you need checked on? Orange is off first, so we've got time."
no subject
"Don't think so!" He's got a bag of his own on his shoulder, and gets the shoulder it hangs off a shrug. "Got everything in here, my sword-- Don't think I need any of the gear they're offering, do you?"
Everything there look more suited to the underground teams, to Tidus. So it's just him and his half-leg cargo pants and hoodie!
no subject
If Tidus was already preparing for a fight, he might not want to be encumbered by too much.
no subject
What was there, anything? Hard hats, clips--nothing that had interested Tidus when he was checking it out.
"If we need anything, I'll ask later. Let's hope we get the SCA's talking to each other again!"
Or them talking over the SCAs. Man, he doesn't want to deal with them being 'useless' again--most of one mission was bad enough. Even if the reason he wanted that communication before was coming with him this time.
Almost thread wrap here as well?
"I hope we can get something working. It's not like the last world's problem, for sure - nothing's suppressing powers."
Though that freak storm... What had caused it?
Only one way to find out!
yes!
Did they ever talk about that? Tidus can't remember right now anyway, though he does know a few people who did. Not him though, really. He wasn't spiritual enough for that.
Re: yes!
"It was like the whole world was muted. I could barely even go whale, and that shape was useful."
She shakes her head. "Be nice if it turns out that gives us resistance against further attacks of that type, but... can't say anything's for sure around here."
HOLD THAT THREAD WRAP
"You--" Tidus is pointing. He is pointing at her. "You can-- you can turn into a whale?"
And now he's motioning out his arms, absolutely not making the appropriate size for even a S'reee length of a whale, but!! He's nodding at Nita, like, yes? A whale whale??
XDDDD
"Yeeees?" Nita asks-slash-answers.
"The shapechange is the only one I really know, but, yeah. Made it way easier to handle those crabs, though using the SCA was a drag."
no subject
....
"...Did you eat them?"
Just. Staring at her with some strange wonder in his eyes. Is this real. Is this life.
no subject
Nita sounds distracted, because she does NOT know how to feel about how Tidus is looking at her!!
"That's the only world I've been able to go whale on since I got here; if you want to see it for yourself you might have to wait?"
Or pester S'reee to share her memories. Or something.
no subject
"Sure." Which doesn't exactly let up at the offer, like Tidus doesn't know what to do with this new information in his life. May he tell someone that 'dude Nita turned into a whale and ate a bunch of crabs'? Possibly.
Right now, he's somewhere between amazed and stun. But he does have a few working brain cells for his brow to dip and to ask:
"Then, S'reee--can she turn human too? Is she stuck as a whale?"
One last question, promise. (Maybe.)
no subject
"She can, yeah. Haven't seen her do it here yet, though, but she can. As long as wizardry's working, she can pull it off."
At least it's a straightforward answer?
no subject
"Huh." Just, huh at that because--huh. His whale cabinmate can turn human-shaped if she wanted to. You learn something new everyday.
"...I guess I should get going," Tidus suggests eventually, with no apparent rush or sign that the idea crossed his mind as good and definitely what he should do. He may be in this odd daze for a while longer, really.
It's a good time for Nita to make her escape though.
Thread wrapped!
Sure, it's in the direction of the Stores car and not, say, Luggage, but that's fine!!
She might just poke the wall pointedly for a little while. Take out some of her frustration and confusion on the train again. Nothing can go wrong!
