"Hi !! James Regan, everybody call me Doc. your team leader. Did you signed confidentiality agreement?". A middle age guy with a lot of white hair greeted Luna Ivanova. Well, greeted was just figure of speech, he went straight to point while shaking hand. No pretense of even asking her name or a 'how are you'. Luna had not expected a direct jump to work. being a new recruit to this job, she had no idea how this work was suppose to be. Specially in an underpaid 315 job. The only public sector undertaking was known to everyone. It was 3% of 15% actually- amount of budget allocation for public/social work. Rest was up for loot by mega corporations on pretext of public-private partnership.

A hurried 'Yeah' was all she could manage in time he turned and started to walk away. After initial confusion of a second she realised that he want her follow him. 

Office cum lab was nothing but a 10x10 feet room. In center was, what looked like a glass water tank with a old paper book case on immersed in it. Top of book case was connected with many thousands of different size/type wires, fibers and small antennas. Center of roof was attached with a rod like power supply point to book case. Book case was in bad shape and was held inside 'water' tank by a contraception with gears and a lever. 'Water' tank's clear plastic surface was badly scratched and almost translucent instead of transparent. All around this were 6 persons sitting on chairs and monitors attached to water tank itself.

"Hey Bansee, Luna is here. Start your TOT. I want her ready before you leave". That was all Doc said before he moved out of lab. Bansee was 30 something women who looked like half asleep and 20 kg overweight for her size. She waved Luna to her and pointed toward a folding chair in corner of lab. She moved back her own chair from her terminal and made space for Luna's chair.

"Familiarize yourself with system. mostly it do what it says on display. Your job is to find repeated patterns then match them with nearest available pattern . Most are suggested by system itself. You just have to confirm them. If you find a pattern which do not match with any other, Arvind there will help you with kinesiology. For any new pattern, you have to add pattern in this list. If any variance is larger then 20%, assume it is a new pattern". Bansee moved back to her tea and snacks she was eating while watching a holo-movie. Luna looked at empty seat in front of terminal and then at Bansee. It was like being given a driver seat in manual vehicle without any driving lessons.

After a few second of shock, she hesitatingly asked "ummm..  what is kinesiology ? " gaining a irritated glare from Bansee. With a sign she paused her movie and said "body movement study". Which confused Luna even more. It showed on her face. 

So Bansee said " You are a data analyst right ? This data is tracer TAG of some dead spy which died on missions. It record their every body movement. We analyze data, find patterns of movement and report to psycho there. She make behavior or action theories based on patterns and then inform Captain over there. He coordinate with field team to confirm them. You find patterns, Arvind tell what they are, psycho give theories about actions of spies and Captain verify them. Oh and you have job to also find out other data stuff like, what location they did all those stuff. Travel through wormhole cant be tracked via TAG and Rob there pretend to not know how to find data". Then she pointed at another women sitting in corner and said "Ms X there report findings based on mission specifics and take actions. Nobody know her name so we simply call her X. She is only one with clearance to know whole missions". Ms X did not even bothered to look at them and continue to read her display.
