secret tunnel thru the mountain
Characters: vatheon + an eventual 
mystery guest star
Location: island + new area
Time: all week starting monday
Style: any
Status: open - threadhop & theadjack away
[ after the kicked up damage wrought by yami in the south forest quadrant settles down and becomes surveyable by monday, characters are in for a little— or, well, a big surprise that is the secret research facility. the entrance of it is easy enough to find, thanks to the destruction— although a lot of the research facility itself is destroyed as well. the power still works, at least! although whatever network it had seemingly been hooked up to is currently (and likely permanently) offline.
near the ENTRANCE of the facility, characters will likely find a very large chart on one of the walls— it resembles a map with handwritten annotations and will undoubtedly prove useful in further exploration. there's nothing else interesting near the entrance, sans for a few empty desks and a trash bin full of what appears to be torn up employee information of some sort. the other areas that can be found will be as follows:
DORMS
↪ pretty self-explanatory, although they are extremely minimalistic and completely abandoned. it's likely that the scientists made use of these— some of the beds seem a bit unkempt, as though they were recently used; whereas some rooms have full garbage bins with various papers. many of them are unuseful or flat-out irrelevant, others appear to be outdated schedule data— the dates on most of the papers seem to be from a little over a year ago. basically, the bins are filled with what they were made for— trash.
VARIOUS LABS
↪ deeper into the facility, it's obvious that quite a lot of research had been being conducted within— multiple rooms seem to be arranged for just that purpose. most of the rooms are empty or have a lot of strewn tools within them as though they were emptied in a hurry. although one room in particular was left as it was; it's both locked and blocked off though, and might take a little force in order to get into. once inside, a completely white room will be found that might feel familiar to people who had been directly involved in a strange event that had happened quite a while ago... the room is slightly less white than any "experiments" might remember, however. in fact, there seems to be quite a bit of dried blood about the place. the blood can be found on nearly everything in the room— the table accompanied with surgical tools, the cabinet filled with both syringes and old vials of a blue fluid, and a prominent list visible on one of the walls.
MAIN LAB
↪ one lab in particular found further within the facility appears to be bigger and better than all the others— it's also the only lab with a multitude of computers. due to the power being on, computers will be responsive— although because whatever network they once runned on is no longer online, the only data accessible is offline data found within any harddrives or memory devices.
and there is plenty of that. however, any data found is heavily encrypted and unlike anything ever seen before, so even a normally excellent hacker will have a problem getting past the security walls; and the only file that can be opened immediately seems to make no sense whatsoever:
w3spEvU3
furthermore, nearly everything resembling paper evidence has been torn or shredded, as evident by the completely empty and ajar file cabinets— not to mention the fact that there are plenty of scraps of unreadable paper strewn across some parts of the floor.
SUBMARINE EXIT
↪ in the deepest part of the lab is a peculair hallway that seems to drop downward— which is curious, since the facility is located so closely on the edge of the island itself. although everything becomes clear should one reach the room near the end of the lowering hallway— a majority of the equipment is damaged, but it is indeed a submarine exit of some sort. could this be how all of the scientists left so suddenly..? in fact, most of the submarines are missing— sans for one, but it's quite old and probably nonfunctional in its current state. you're fully allowed to try and fix it, but it will take both a team of people and several weeks.
CONTAINMENT UNIT
↪ also in the deeper part of the facility, although closer to the main lab than the submarine exit, is a completely closed off area— mechanical doors and a digital lock that seems to be online block all from entering. the door seems to open automatically for a keycard, but there's also an emergency override function— that activates via a password. blinking in an almost mocking fashion, it prompts you:

open.
which would be the reason he's currently leveling a none-too-kind look at the digital lock beside the door, lip curled in distaste. ]
no subject
Gracia is slightly taller than him, so peering over his shoulder wasn't too difficult. ]
What are you looking at?
no subject
A lock. Or so I assume.
[ his reply is clipped, but not impolite. ]
no subject
...It doesn't look like one. [ She steps beside him to observe it closer. ]
"Enter Password?" [ Gracia frowns. ] Oh, even the locks of the future are strange! How are we ever going to open this door?
no subject
No, it doesn't. [ Ciel agrees all too readily. ] But I assume it opens when one types the correct word. [ that is the concept of a password when applied to an electronic device, isn't it? ] Where to begin looking for this password is another mystery entirely.
no subject
Well, maybe we can guess the word! [ She steps in front of him and examines the screen once more. She attempts to type something, but both her hands were injured from the previous fight involving the Yami. Three of her fingers on the right hand were broken, splints getting in the way of actual typing. Her left hand had an extremely swollen wrist. Gracia bites her lip in annoyance. ]
But then, what word would we guess? We have nowhere to begin. Ooh...how irritating!
no subject
And there is the dilemma. [ Ciel sighs, shaking his head. ] It could be anything--anything at all.
[ but oh, those hands really don't look very well. let him be gentlemanly at you. ]
But if you would like to make a guess, I would gladly type it in for you.
no subject
Thank you! I have lots of guesses actually! And this first one, I just thought of right now!
[ She peers over his shoulder. ] Why don't we enter some of the numbers that the kidnapped victims had when they woke up? The ones listed inside the other room? [ Her expression turns mildly serious. ] Maybe one of them is the password to open this door.
no subject
[ He's equally in a sour mood. Slightly irritated, actually but he's trying to calm down. ]
You'd asked for a change of pace. Here we are. What do you make of this-- of all this?
no subject
Ciel doesn't actually look up at the man, rather preferring to continue his examination, still scowling. ]
What do I make of it? It is unnatural, the lot of it. I don't like it a bit. [ and he likes being directly involved even less. ] Still, I suppose I did get what I asked for, so I shan't complain.
no subject
I can imagine your unease. However, this still stands to be a puzzle for all of us involved. As long as no one in the know is willing to divulge answers, I fear we'll have to wrestle them from these ruins.
But I wonder... that code in the main lab...
no subject
[ Vatheon seems to take such pains to keep them in the dark about as much as possible. ]
You and I have the same thought. [ unsurprising. ] Shall we give it a try?
