You flash, blinded at first, and arrive in a dark, sophisticated and futuristic laboratory. You look around under the dark lights, squinting to find life. Your eyes pass right by the human standing near a table, already automatically looking for an Aliroo. "Can I help you?" The person asks you, looking up from the syringe. He's got silvery green hair, and he looks pretty small to be any sort of Aliroo. "Not really, I'm just looking around," you say. "Whatchya doin?" "I'm not sure you have permission to be exposed to that information," he says. He squirts the liquid in the syringe onto a sort of microscope slide. He picks it up, and brings it to a contraption that reminds you of a coke bottle. He then proceeds to examine the slide. "What AM I aloud to look at?" You ask. He looks at you with a look of exasperation. He leans over the table, holding out his hand. "I'm Cobalt Connery, head scientist on Silverstreak," he says. "You can look at this." He waves his hand, and conjures a butter knife. "Tell me when you're done." *Sheesh,* you think, *this guy's got an attitude problem. How can Blu stand him?* Then you shake your head. You havn't even been able to MEET Blu on Silverstreak yet. You look at the butter knife, set it on the table, and when Cobalt is studying the liquid, you sneak off into the far side of the lab. You sit down near a cupboard, wondering what to do. You lean back, and suddenly there's a flutter of paper as a hand-scrawled paper notebook bonks you on the head. There's a room with no door to your left. Up ahead, you come to a door that says, "Authorized Personel Only." You shrug, peeking around. What could a little snooping do?
