章 101: The base 1 change part 2

"It finally set up. Hurry, get the boss and tell him we set the communication array up" Mark woke to those happy words, his mind still having the effect of sleep. From his position, he could not see much that was going inside the room.

But his body did not want to pick itself up and check inside physically at all. His mind was urging him to go back to sleep and to catch up on his missed rest.

"Stop sleeping, Mark. I did not put in this much effort for you to sleep it all through" something soft hit him, but he did not mind. As long as it did not hurt then it did not matter to him.

"Wake up" something heavier hit him but still not enough to actually hurt him. However, this time his brain could not take any more abuse like this and he woke up.

Since his eyes refused to open up fully, he saw the Rika with the tiny gap they allowed him to look through. She looked happy, content even at whatever news she was going to present him with.
