Dante's Abyss Sign-Ups and Pre-Show Information

[Android-18]

Her finger pressed against the dial lazily. It clicked under the pressure, once, and then twice. All that was returned was a static sound and a blurry reception. It was amusing that her ship had a television. It was not the greatest, especially being deep within space. She had almost given up when finally it picked up something. Slightly startled she tilted her head; she could not quite make it out. The audio was scrambled and delayed. As far as she could tell, it was on Earth-Sei. Either it was some news shoot, or another reality show. She was actually growing interested.

With a flick of her wrist she switched the device off. Her feet carried her from the room she was in and back up to the control room. She settled into her chair and started to command the ship to change course. For a long time she had simply drifted in space, her craft now sliced through star clusters and space clouds. Where she was, it was beyond her. All she knew was that she wanted to watch some television, and the closer she got to Earth-Sei the better. It was also a fact that she was lonely, perhaps slowly going crazy. Who wouldn?t? Despite her loneliness, she had turned off her L.E.N.S. so that no one could contact her. It wasn?t like they were going to anyway.

Thoughts of those she knew had eventually gone away. Her days had been spent exploring space and trying to figure out the meaning of life. She had gotten no closer than when she had started, sadly. Regardless, she was not far, but far enough. Soon the globe that was Earth-Sei filled her view like a jewel in satin. She didn?t even feel butterflies, it was depressing.

The television picked up the signal almost instantly. She leaned in, although it was still somewhat delayed. The gist of it was, to say the least, surprising. When had the last Dante?s Abyss been? Had time really past her by for so long? Either that or this was some new game that a hot shot felt like throwing together, and of course using a popular tournament name to snare contestants. She had to admit, she was hooked.

Her ship was small enough to land, and now it was secured within a rented hanger. She paid good money, and the man promised nothing would happen. Well, she had threatened him, which was in her nature. After dealing with her beautiful ship she was off to the nearest large city. What was the name? They had said it, but she hardly paid attention to details. In hardly any time at all the android was settling down in the correct city, many people milled around, so she was sure this was the place. It was proven by the flash sign and the people signing papers.

She walked past burly men, dramatic women, and straight toward the sign up sheets. Of course she was joining; she wouldn?t be herself if she didn?t. Sure she did somewhat fear meeting certain people there, but she was good at avoiding problems. He couldn?t sense her, which was good enough. The lady that gave her the sheet helped her, though she hardly needed help. The android singed once, and then twice, and then once more to finalize the silly document. The girl was impressed, but also interested in the androids name. It wasn?t much of one. The android cut off the yappy voice of the woman, and proceeded past her. Yeah, yeah, she knew it all. She also wasn?t surprised that there would be only 44 contestants. The android didn?t care either way, as long as she tried.

The teletube took her to the meeting grounds. Many more fighters and workers walked back and forth in this large area. There were different places to visit, and she knew the most likely place certain people would visit. She made sure not to step foot in the restaurant, and headed right on toward a different area.

OOC: Crap I know, but I wanted to RP, didn?t want to wait til after work. I?ll likely try to RP again when I get home.
