"The tube wouldn't budge."

"What?"

"We tried everything, um, crowbar, saws, screwdrivers, anything. It won't open. But there is another way."

"Well?"

"It's a small panel on the side, asking for a password and fingerprint, like anyone here is gonna freakin' qualify."

Raven ran her hand over her face, exasperated and tired from trying to tear the tube open. She thought that the metal on the tube was something basic like steel or iron, but no. No saw that they had or pliers could cut through the wiring or surface of this machine.

"This thing, machine or whatever, is not made out of any type of metal that we know of, ok. I-its like the girl inside it or thing in it was meant to stay in there until someone wanted to open it up! I can't cut through it with anything I have; no drill would go through the panel of the body of the tube so I really need some external help here!"

Raven looked up at Kane after she finished her rant and saw that he was deep in thought. Did he even listen to anything I just said?!

"Hello?!" She snapped her fingers in front his face and waved her hands to get him out of his thinking state. Kane blinked and looked at Raven and said,

"You said that there was a panel on the side of the tube, yes?"

"Yeah, but I don't know how anyone is gonna get a code or fingerprint for it if there's no information about the tube on the Ark Database."

"Maybe the information we need isn't on a computer." Raven scrunched her eyebrows in a confused way and followed after Kane as he speed walked to Jaha's quarter. He knocked on the door and waited for Jaha to open the door. Kane looked back at Raven, who looked for the most part confused as hell.

Jaha opened the door and said to Kane,

"Any progress?"

Raven snorted in response. Kane threw a glance back at her as to chastise her.

"On the machine, there is a small panel that requires a code and a fingerprint. Raven said that she cannot open or breakthrough it."

Jaha processed the information and seemed in thought about what to do. He looked up to Kane and he nodded at him, seeing that he had the same idea as him. He stepped outside the door and began to make his way to the nearest storage room. Raven, thinking that both of the men are mad, began to follow them to where Jaha was leading. Jaha, however, had an idea of what the tube was. More importantly, who was inside of it. And so did Kane. 

Both of the tall men were stridding quickly down the ark's dimly lit hallways, extremely focused to get to the command center. While Raven, who was slightly jogging to keep up with them, was still hella confused as to what was going go, it earlier being the goal to open the tube with the girl in it. 

First thing I heard was humming. Not a song, it was a machine. The sound was close, too. What's it called when you can't move you body but your brain is conscious? I was told not to move when I wake up again... WAIT! I'm waking up again? Coulson told me it would feel like this but this feel so....cold. I'm pretty sure I would be in a room being treated by the people of this time period. Or wherever I am.

The humming is getting louder. Or maybe it's getting closer. Before, I don't know how long ago, it seemed to be a distant buzzing. Now it sounds like it's right behind my ear. My hands feel like their gonna fall off and my whole is sore. I recognize this, I think, feeling. Right before I went into full-cryo, I felt so cold and sore, like I had just finished eating 10 tubs of ice cream that one time with Nat. Good times... but if I'm still in the tube, then why am I waking up? Oh my Jesus, please do not tell me that in reality I've been under for like 5 seconds and them dumbasses already broke the cryotube. It feels like it because, it feels like I didn't sleep at all.
