Koba S. Graesson

Suddenly it got quiet, too quiet. You would be able to hear a pin landing on the floor after the lady had interrupted the grown men and women that acted like children at the moment. Koba wasn't one of those that cared for her, not even one bit, to him she was just too bossy. Or he couldn't see what reason people had to listen to her just because she was royal. There probably was more than that behind the fact that they listened to her but they flew right by him, he never cared to notice them. He had his mind set on one thing and one thing only, she wasn't qualified as a leader of Utopia.

But he sure was. He had been here for a longer amount of time than her. A longer amount of time than most. And he still didn't get counted as a part of those three's little group. But that was probably because he lacked that aura those three had. It could also be that he lacked the support of the other's inside Utopia, he could come up with endless ideas on why it was so but they never included him acting faulty. Because he was perfect. According to himself.

But as soon as annoying female had left the room people started to talk once more, but this time in low voices. No more creaming or barking, everyone had turned to their own little faction and discussed it between themselves. Koba as well, he had walked over to the guard’s parts of the table where Bjorn was sitting with his soldiers standing around him. They were all welcomed by a bitter man grumbling more to himself than addressing his people, "Putting the blame on us because they can't keep their freaking plants under control better--"

"But it's our mission to keep this place secure and not let those people get inside here--," A small, probably brave woman spoke up before she got interrupted. But Koba could see why she dared to speak like that to their leader, her body wasn't human. She was more a machine than a person, what was there to fear? Rust?

"Who asked you of your opinion Piagen?" The small woman only shrugged in response to Bjorn's annoyance, with a snorting he continued where he had left off, "Because of the research teams blunder we now need to check not only the outside for the plants but this facility as well to see how the hell they got inside. I'm putting you all to work nonstop until you find me an answer. You will work in pairs of two to cover more space in a shorter amount of time, you that have experience in working outside will handle that while the rest of you will check the inside. Understood?"

The man only got small nods to ensure him they had understood the task, plans had never been Bjorn's forte. Which clearly showed now, he had no idea where to start or how to handle a situation like this. It was a first for him. it was probably a first for everyone.

Most had already left the room by now, heading back to theirs. They had a city to run and every single one was needed to keep it running.
