Very suddenly the "front door" opened, and in came a small BB-8 esc. robot came in, along with a flight attendant cart. (You know, the ones they hide the ginger ale in?) It stood there for a second. All eyes were on it.
"Greetings, girls!" a feminine voice rang out, startling us. "You all must be so confused right now. As your caretaker, allow me to explain. You are all part of our colors experiment! As you change, I will explain more to you, but for now you do not need to know much."
'She' turned to the cart. A plate in her middle slid open and out came two tiny robotic arms. She opened the side of the cart and took out a bundle of...something. It looked like clothes, shoes, and a watch.
"If you would look down at your wrist, you will see your assigned number." she continued, "This number corresponds to your color and the order in which you do tasks and assignments. As soon as you get your clothes, please go to the bathroom next to your bed and follow the instructions. Will number 1 please come get your bundle?"
I looked at my wrist. The black 11 stared back at me. I looked up to see who "number 1" was. The girl on the top of the first bunk was slowly climbing down her ladder and walking towards the robot. I think she is Chinese. She grabbed the bundle and walked to the door on the left of her bed, closing it quietly behind her. Meanwhile the robot reached into the cart and grabbed another bundle.
"Will number 3 please come get your bundle?" I was confused. Number 3? Why not number 2? The girl on the top of the second bunk slowly slid down her ladder and made her way to the robot. She looked...Korean? I'm not sure. But at least I understood now.
I'm pretty sure she was going to call all of the odd numbers first, because all the odd numbers were on the top bunk, and all the even numbers were on the bottom. Since only one could use the bathroom at a time, the robot was going to call all the odd numbers first.
And I was correct. She called 5, 7, and 9 after 3. 5 was Japanese I'm pretty sure, 7 was...Vietnamese? I'm not sure, but that seemed to fit her. 9 was German. That I was certain of.
"Will number 11 please come get your bundle?"
I climbed down my ladder and headed over to the robot. I grabbed 'my' bundle and headed back to the bathroom at the right of my bed. On the way there I noticed the girl on the bottom of my bunk had a fiery head. Irish? Maybe.
I opened the door and walked in. I set the clothes down on the counter and locked the door. I sighed deeply.
"Okay, let's see what we have here."
