Mission One [video]

[This sort of technology is nothing new to Tamora, and it doesn't take her but a moment or two to get the hang of this particular device and its functions. The video feed shows a very stern-looking blonde with an unimpressed glower on her face.]

Okay, civilians, look alive. The name's Calhoun--Sergeant, Space Marine Corps. If this game's in trouble, then I'm offering my full cooperation, but I'm gonna need a little more info first. I got three questions for you, and I expect clean, concise answers.

One: [She holds up one finger, then three, and folds one down for each description she gives.] I'm looking for three people--a short guy with brown hair and blue eyes, wearing a blue shirt and a goofy hat, who carries around a golden hammer; a little girl about nine years old, with black hair, wearing a turquoise hoodie; and a big guy dressed like a lumberjack with disproportionately large hands and feet. Don't ask why he has disproportionately large hands and feet, 'cuz to be frank I really don't know. I just need to find these people, and if anybody's seen 'em, I'd like a full report on their last known coordinates. Also if there are any other space marines present, sound off; if there's a hole in the code in the far quadrant we need to figure out how to get a message to the rest of the team.

Two: [Two fingers this time.] Who's the genius that designed this game? Because I'd really like to punch them in the eye. Who in the name of Goomba's snaggleteeth thought it was a good idea to design a game with no exit? [And then she mutters under her breath.] Ugh, if I have to play a bunch of minigames to get to the next level or something I'm gonna seriously knock some heads...

[Back to business.] And three: [Three fingers, and then her hand swims to her forehead.] Where can you get a good strong cup of coffee around here? I have a feeling I'm gonna need it.

In addition, anyone who can give me a more comprehensive rundown than the sorry excuse for a briefing I received upon arrival, I'd appreciate it. Calhoun out.

[And the feed cuts promptly.]
