[The video switches on, most of the screen blocked by the concerned, pale face of Jarael, the rest revealing the crashed ship behind her.]

Perero? Can you hear me, where are you?

[She sighs.]

Look, I don't know if this is an open frequency, but if it is, is anyone out there? Or has anyone seen a man you might know of as 'Camper'?

[She glances off into the distance, though still speaking to any recipients of the message.]

I'm not sure where to look, I can see a town and a shielded city. Any directions would be... appreciated.

[Bruce is what looks like a hospital room, organizing medical supplies.]

I've been here awhile and I haven't heard of anyone by that name, but I'll keep an eye out. The ship's servers need to be repaired before we can search via any databases there might be for that information.

[There's a spark of hope in her eyes, then.]

Thank you. I didn't realise the ship had a database - I should have thought to look - what needs to be done to get it repaired?

[Because it may just be something she's willing to help out with.]

[He looks a little embarrassed.] Well, I haven't actually seen it yet, so I'm only 90% certain that there is one in part of the system that's offline. But it would make sense, given what I've seen in my study of the pods.

As far as the repairing part is concerned, we need to boost the power supply. Unfortunately, it's buried underground in a pile of rubble that's in the process of being removed.

[She nods.]

Yes, I agree that it makes sense for there to be a database. If there is any way I can help with the process of restoring it...? Although I'm not very technically skilled.

[It would beat sitting around doing nothing, at any rate. At the very least, she could always help move rubble?]

If there is a way for you to help, I'll certainly let you know. We need to get life support routed there before anyone else can help clear out the area. Unless you don't need to breathe at all, heading down there right now would be a bad idea. But that problem should be solved within the next week or so.

[She appears understanding, but sadly shakes her head. Tone ever-so-slightly sarcastic.]

I do need to breathe, yes.

But once that is done... I'd be more than happy to help out however you need it. My name is Jarael, if you need to ask for me.

[Bruce just chuckles a little at the sarcasm.] I'll definitely keep you in the loop. And it's a pleasure to meet you, Jarael. I'm Dr. Bruce Banner.

[She nods.]

Likewise. I hope we meet in person sometime soon.
