[A young woman's voice echoes over the Vine first. IN fact, it sounds almost exactly like that of someone else the residents have heard from recently. A shrill note of panic has managed to worm its way into her voice, though.]

What is this place? Where-? How-?


[After a moment the mirror comes on. It's Asuka! Or her doppelganger. The only real difference is that she has a swathe of bandages covering her right arm and another tied tightly around her head, covering her left eye. The one that is visible is bright, blue, alert and almost panicked. Her uncovered hand reaches out toward the mirror.]

This isn't right! I was just-

I was-

[Her eye widens slightly.]

Oh my God. I-

[She chokes, retches and she sinks out of sight for a moment, hand covering her mouth. The rather unpleasant sound of someone losing their lunch is all that can be heard for a few moments, gasps for air and then more retching.]

I feel sick.
 
 
[Instead of doing the smart thing and asking for information first on Vine, Asuka decides to explore around herself. Her journey brings her to the Arcade. Surely, she figures that she could get a connection to NERV and they would send a private plane to bring back home.

... The "getting connection" part isn't going very well. Painfully described as we hear Asuka kicking against one of the game machines.]


--This is so stupid! Don't tell me that technology around here is useless too! [And she finally notices the Vine is on.]

... Oh, how long has this thing been on? Well, whatever! The Queen or whoever is behind this is going to have to answer to me. If this really is a network, then some information behind this place would be... appreciated. But if it's not any help, then I'm cutting you off.
