"Nothing is more common on earth than to deceive and be deceived."
Johann G. Seume
Nodoka proceeded to disembark from the Konpaku, and was surrounded by a group of Order personnel greeting her at the Airlock where Konpaku was moored at Dabadoru, firearms aimed at her and her group, which had only recently breached into Nomad Space, and, accused most likely of being infectees. Out of ensuring that she is not a threat to Mankind, as well as to have something to hang on her wall, She raises her arms in surrender, alongside Honya and Bride, all wearing their usual attire. Nodoka sighs, only to declare to the group before her.
"Let's get this scanning procedure over with. I have better things to do than be threatened with firearms."
A single man would stand out, clearly in a different uniform and without a firearm raised, instead a laser pistol in it's holster at his side.
"Lady Hanamura you will have to excuse us for the weapons but you do know business with infectees can be nasty, and we can not take chances. Major Smith is disembarking the Sopdu at this moment and will join us in a few minutes. I will ask you to stay calm and as long as you make no sudden movement everything will be done quickly."
With that the man made a small bow and stepped back, taking out a PDA to which he turned his attention as he checked over everything needed for this scan.
To her right Nodoka would notice a airlock has been connected to a vessel outside and from it stepped out the man that took her in for this scan. With a uniform on that had designations of the Overwatch as well as showed his rank was higher than anyone else on this hangar deck currently found, Mark was accompanied with two guards, both heavily protected as well as highly armed.
A minute or so of his walk towards the group she would see the guards make room for him to approach her and her companions.
"Miss Hanamura, pleasure to meet you in person, even though it might not be the best of circumstances. I understand you have other things to attend to, and so do I. We will make our way to the scanning facility and with some luck be done with it quickly."
With that the soldiers would move to the sides of the group, allowing them to follow Mark and his guards which still kept close to him, keeping an eye on the three as well with their guns ready to act. The group would have been escorted with some of the soldiers following behind, their guns now a little lowered but still ready in their hands.
Like that Mark would lead them to the lower section of the station, proceeding to the scanning room which was ready and just waiting for their subjects.
Nodoka lowers her arms, putting them behind her back, away from her revolver, holstered in a pistol holster on her side leg. "Yes. Rest assured, me and my friends mean you no harm as long as you hold the same towards us." Nodoka would clear her throat and follow them in. As they approach the scanning room, she raises her voice again. "I assume that we'll need to disrobe for this, or..? I mean, I don't mind it, but I just want to know if I need to remove my nanosuit." Honya blushes a little, kind of nervous about exposing her body to them. Bride is trying to maintain composure due to her dislike for the Order and usually unrestrained persona.
As they had lowered a level on the station they would pass a security checkpoint where the weapons would have been taken away from Nodoka and if her companions had any, the same would have been done.
Once inside the room it would have been possible to see different medical equipment and the scanner in the middle, next to it a man in full body armor which was to be the one to scan them. With his face covered in case of any attacks he looked towards the group that entered, guards already in place with their weapons ready. The guards that escorted them here would join the rest while Mark and Nodoka's group would step closer to the scanner.
"Do not worry Miss Nodoka, removing your clothes will not be necessary as the scanner will work over them easily. Even if you did you would just have to change to something else anyway."
Mark would turn towards them and give a small gesture with his hand that one of them is free to step up. The three could also see a defense turret which by all signs currently was inactive, but only waiting for a target to engage if need be. Mark stepped to the side and with his hands crossed on his back watched the procedure which he knew well, being a subject of it himself every month.
The masked man was standing by the seat and once the first of the three was sitting in would approach them, holding a sidearm sized blood sample collector, which was obvious in his hands as to show it was no weapon. Meanwhile the equipment would lower from the ceiling and fit around her head, starting it's scan.
"This will take some four minutes so I will have to ask you to relax and make no movement."
The masked man would explain with a serious and cold tone, showing not a sign of nervousness. With the blood collected he would step away, the process only bringing a small sting to the woman inside the seat. He began the work of analysing the blood out of sight by the current subject, the scanner continuing it's work on her body.
"Subject clear. No signs of infestation. Life signs green."
The masked man said suddenly, breaking the silence that took over the room during these four minutes. Moment later the scanner would release the subject, allowing her to stand up and letting the second approach.
Honya would proceed to step forward, her left hand grasped onto her right arm slightly, being nervous. She sits down and takes a deep breath. as the masked man approaches and begins to extract some of her blood, a bit of metallic black material can be seen in the blood. It's not nomadic in origin, but rather metal as its' texture implies. When analysed, the origin matches that of body-monitoring nanobots.
"Miss.. If you do not explaining to me.. Why do you have nanobots in your bloodstream?" says one of the staff overlooking the results with the head doctor which grabbed the sample from her veins.
Honya simply blushes a little, nervous. "Well.. I.. I'm.. I'm.." she says, only for some of the men to slightly raise their guns, concerned about her being another kind of threat. Nodoka chimes in. "Her body was artificially made by IRG. She's a AI that lives with me and Pale Bride over there. The manual for their bodies says that the nanobots are for damage control and vitals monitoring."
Hearing Nodoka's explanation Mark would signal the guards to stand down with a small hand gesture.
"All clear in that case. Next?"
Mark would give another small gesture for the next one of the woman to step up to the scanner, Honya being free from it and able to step away. The report from Honya would have been finalized soon as the second scan was being done, Mark receiving a PDA in which the document was listed and after a small look he had uploaded it to a small data disk which he kept with himself for the time being, until all three scans were done.
Pale Bride proceeds forward into the seat, showing visible irritation over the entire debacle, but complying with his order. She winces slightly at the pain of having the blood extracted. The resulting sample is nearly the same, only with slightly more Nanobot material. Even with the contents, the device reports her as free of infestation.
"All clean sir. No K'hara-type biotics found in the sample." The man says again.
"Good. Only Miss Nodoka left, then."
He turned slightly to Nodoka and showed a faint smile, awaiting the results of her scan which he already assumed, not that checking her anyway was a bad idea however. While she stepped up and Pale Bride stepped away he would receive another PDA with the results from the second scan, everything being listed and once he finished looking over it he uploaded it to a second data disk.
Nodoka proceeds forward and sits down. She rests her eyes and proceeds to allow you to extract the blood from the small area of exposed veins, betwixt her left hand and the part of the Nanosuit that covers the rest of her body. The blood returns back normal, however, the machine reports an anomaly in the contents. a certain protein in the blood seems to be missing, however, other than that it's clean.
"Other than a slight anomaly, It's clean, sir. No K'hara biotics." the doctor's adjutant says.
"Nicely done. Thank you for your time Miss Nodoka, as well as thanks to your companions. The last report will be finalized in a few moments and meanwhile we can start making our way back to your ship."
Mark would give a small gesture to the exit of the room, meanwhile the three woman would notice how the guards didn't hold their guns as carefully anymore, now that it was confirmed there is no threat they would keep their distance from the group.
"I hope this brought no bad feelings to you or your friends, one can never be too sure especially in the region such as the Omicrons."
He received the last report and would carry the three disks which had the information on all the subjects until they were at their ship.
