Guardians.

The Meeting.

Triggers- swearing?

everyone got to the main tent, sam and the other guardians were already there talking quietly to each other when the other four entered and got to their seats, sam and Remy were standing much like the vision while Thomas, Robyn, Joan, Talyn and Emile were all sitting, Remy was leaning against one of the poles drinking what it seemed to be an iced coffee from Starbucks oddly enough.

the others all sat except for roman who remained standing, sam cleared he throat, "good evening everyone, how has training all been for you? I've heard you all have made great progress on your training, logan I congratulate you on meeting your steed.. saffiya?" she said questioningly logan nods looking behind him to see the pure white unicorn standing behind him with their intelligent electric blue glowing eyes looking around the tent observing. "thank you and yes that is her name" Patton coo'ed at the unicorn and held his hand out to pet their muzzle which Saffiya did glad to be getting attention logan looked away blushing at Patton's actions, "congratulations to Virgil for learning how to shift into both cat and also your jaguar, I have not seen you change into you big form but have heard it is mightily intimidating" she says proudly, "patton your powers have gotten stronger and your able to use your connection with water and animals well, I can tell you have practiced in you spare time because of how natural it has come you." patton giggled at the praise since he had been working hard on it. sam turned to roman, "roman I am extremely proud of you for being comfortable enough to shift into your wolf on multiple occasions and learned to fight and use your alpha instincts to protect." roman looked away shyly from all the attention seeing everyone smile proudly at him, he liked it but Virgil was looking and that made his gears turn. He wanted to talk to Virgil.

Sam moved to the head of the table, "moving on to matters at hand, the hive. from the intel Terrence and Valerie have been bringing us, they are still trying to get into the beacon and breakthrough to the core. Obviously, the only way they can do that is through this room" sam points to a large diagram of the beacons building, logan looked closer at the blueprints, "the memory room?" he questions, sam nods "this room will put all of us into one of the other's memories and we need to find an item that will become more obvious when in the experience, it is chosen usually from something that's repressed or that holds a great deal of pain to go through, the item is usually a comfort item or a special thing according to the set person you get." she explains pulling up a hologram for a 'simulated' memory example.

"We need to get to the core to reset it and send the others away from here, I will not just get rid of the hive, but also will slowly fix home back to its original glory and send you guys back to your homes," she says "we go reset the beacon you guys can leave." She adds logan puts a hand up "yes logan?" Sam asks, "you have said that the hive is there how will we get into the beacon to get through the memory room, to begin with?" Sam smiles and Thomas jumps in allowing himself to control the panel.

Joan, Talyn, Emile, Remy and I will create a big distraction that's big enough to take all the guards and additional hive members away from guarding the beacons entrance, there may be some left behind which is why we needed to train you guys how to fight, we will distract them while you all sneak in and lock the doorway then go to the memory room." Thomas explains showing the diagram of the layout outside the beacon tower. Logan seemed satisfied with that Patton placed his hand up, "yes Patton?" "Why would we be going in, instead of the others? Wouldn't they be better suited to going into the core?" Remy steps in now.

"The core only allows two of each species into the core, so we wouldn't be accepted into the core If we even tried. And although you believe we'd be better suited only sam, Thomas and Robyn have ever been inside the core, and at this moment in time Thomas had put his hand down to guide and allow Robyn and sam take you since you all are more familiar with these two" he says fixing his shades and taking a sip of the iced coffee, the others nodded understanding the new information.

Roman then steps forward, "I have a question, Remy how the fuck do you have Starbucks here?" He asks, Emile and Thomas both laugh hysterically as Remy chuckles looking at roman who seemed smug about the question logan slowly realised why it seemed odd "hey yeah!" Patton giggled at logans sudden realization and Virgil hid his face with a hand to contain the laughter. Robyn and Sam tried to remain neutral but lost it.

Once everyone calmed down Remy took a sip of his coffee, "well babes is life here the same as back there?" Roman slowly shakes his head, "exactly, I faded after starbies became an addiction. so I now summon my favourite drinks, mich like sam can summon her sword and change from her armour to normal clothes."

Virgil gathered his courage to ask some of his own questions, "back to the memory room, does it have to be an inanimate object or can the item be a pet or even a person?" "It can be whatever the other finds comfort it whether it is a stuffed animal or if it is a person or a pet they grew close with," Robyn says eyes glowing deep navy and logan had to hide his pride in seeing Robyn's eyes glow his colour.

"Do we know who we will be paired with?" Virgil asks again and sam shakes her head, "it only chooses the pair at random who hold most secrets, the person you have may not have your memory" Sam explains carefully to give them the most straightforward answers.

"When will this happen?" Sam looked to roman who asked this, she smiled softly, "tomorrow, early as possible, Terrence has said that they don't change their shifts until late morning meaning the members who are on guard will be exhausted from being awake all night and morning." Logan nods listening to the information. A few more questions were asked but soon the room was silent and it was late, "ok, I recommend we all get some sleep before tomorrow!" Robyn says happily, "tomorrow your going home, gotta be energized," Talyn says smirking, Emile was practically falling asleep on Remy's lap, Logan was practically holding Patton up with the help of Saffiya, with that being said everyone got up and tried to get themselves to their tent to sleep, except Roman.

"Roman your going the wrong way our tent is over this way" sam called he hesitates to look the other way then back at sam. she seemed to flash red in understanding "ok.. forget I asked roman, Virgil is in his tent" she smiles and walked away, Robyn watched the exchange a soft smile on her face as she followed after sam.

Roman summoned all of his courage and walked to Virgil's tent.
