Ermac lied on his couch and stared into the ceiling of his home quarters, he had earned himself a free day from his corporation and there was nothing to do except to wait for his delivery.
Which brings him to his problem, he was bored and he couldn't find anything that could end the monotony of this free day.
Maybe I should go to a club or a bar maybe get a few drinks. Or maybe I find an Arcade or something just something to help getting this damn day over!
His thoughts are being interupted by a signal from his NEOcom
Finally the suits are here!
Is the first thing that comes into his mind when he sees the symbol for a new message on the console, he opens it and reads it with a happy smile on his face which turns into a rather serious frown when he sees that it was an invitation to another "strange" mission.
He still remembers his last "odd job" in that Blood Raider infested Desert complex a few days ago, and the pain from all these damn knives, but this time does it seem to be a rather interesting job, where he could test his new equipment for sure.
Ermac presses the accept button and promptly receives another message that his new suits have arrived.
Seems like that this day has become far more exciting.
**********
Ermac get's out of the shuttle and enters the conference room, he wears a dark brown west with a black shirt underneath it and a pair of jeans, what he sees is a big group of people next to a very big glass table who are either talking to each other or where working on the weapons they brought in.
Some of them he did not know but he recognised his comrades from his last "interesting" job, which pleased him because that means that he can rely on them.
He moves closer to the table and grabs the datapad he got and reads again the details of the job while he trys to listen to the conversations around him. |

Ermac looked up from the datapad as he hears the comment about his last job.
The man who said that was a bit shorter than he is, and he had augmented eyes which made his right arm look like a metal club in technological comparison, but still as big as his mouth is does it not show how good he is, and trying to **** off Kador and a big part of the group that went in there didn't really help his image.
Oh man let's hope he shuts up before he get's into trouble we don't need even more tension in this group.
He then looks over to Hawkeye who cracked the table apparently causing Ermac to question why he even brought his damn HMG with him, but he decided to just let it slide and not to follow this chain of thought further.
As he hears the familiar voice of Kador greeting him, turns he around to face the man with his female companion he didn't know her but he saw that she was a minmatar most likely and pretty too but Ermac knew better.
She is his slave, a concept that he still didn't truly understood but whatever works for someone is not the his problem.
He decides to greet him in Caldari if he makes the effort to greet him in his mother tongue, just to be polite.
"Saisieni Templar Ouryon it's a good thing that we have some people here who know how to fight." |

Ermac learned from his last mission that the introduction part can be ignored when it comes to odd jobs, you will learn far more from the people around you when you work with them on the field.
Before Ermac could hear Kadors answer starts the briefing which made him rather nervous.
A forsaken ship, an artifact which weights enough that you need 2 mercenarys, perhaps only 1 sentinel dropsuit user, no infos of what happend there and the chance to be forever lost in some place somewhere in space and not even immortality can save ones ass in that case.
Am I afraid, yes.
Do I have a choice, not really at this point.
Let's hope my comrades here get the same idea that this is going to be extremly dangerous, even for us.
Ermac also noted another thing, the ship was huge, bigger as some battleships that he saw back in the state news channels or propaganda commercials.
Trying to memorize everything is going to be a pain which means that he should get himself a map rather quick or he is going to get lost and that would end in a catastrophy.
As the presentation ends is he one of the first people to move along the blue lights and towards the armory.
They really like to make everything look very.... clean and innocent....
One of the drones flys towards him and asks him to follow it which he gladly accepts.
The pods themself reminded him of oversized eggs with a glass panel in the front and a life support mask inside.
He knew the procedure even though he only had to do it once, which was for him back in the days already one time too much in his opinion.
And here he is doing it again.
As Ermac arrives at the pod does he start to take off his clothes without any hesitation until he stands there in his boxers.
He wasn't very muscular but he had a rather well maintained body, he had a few scars on his arms from the occasional knive and one deep one on his left shoulder blade which came from a stray bullet during a shoot out in the middle of a protest, it wasn't extremly many but it showed that he did his work as a sec officer.
And he was glad that they created his body so as if the incident with the Intaki cocktail never happend.
Before he enters the pod does he remember that he still had to take something off.
He looks around and sees a member of the tech crew looking over the pods to see if anything is wrong.
Ermac whistles at the man who looks up to him, he had a white jumpsuit on with yellow stripes on the arms to signalise his role here, he had a yellow cap on which made it hard to see his face.
"Yes?" Asks the annoyed sounding man.
"Sorry to interrupt you in your line of work there sir, but can I lend you an arm?" says Ermac to the man in a innocent and polite tone.
The technican looks at him as if he has gone mad and asks again:" Uhhh... what do you mean with that sir?" in a rather questionable tone.
"I mean it like that" responds Ermac as he moves his left hand towards his right under arm and spins it to the right till he hears a click and detaches the now limb cybernetic arm from the socket in his upper arm.
He offers it to the man who couldn't decide if he should watch the man who offered him a fake arm or the arm which dangled before his face.
I took the tech a few seconds until his eyes concentrated on the stupid grin which was plastered on Ermacs face.
"Ha ha ha.... I get it. Let me guess you don't want it to get soaked in the fluid?" he says in a deadpan tone.
Ermac stiffles his laughing before he answers:" Sorry I just had to do it, but yeah you are right last time I did this was my arm a little sluggish in it's movement I had to drain it for an entire day. Would it be a problem if you could store it somewhere in for me?"
The Tech sighs but nods:" Yeah no problem but please next time no stupid jokes I already had a bad week okay?"
"No problem and thank you very much." Is Ermacs almost too friendly answer as he heads back into the pod, but he could hear the man mumbling something in the line of "stupid ass immortal jackasses" before he arkwardly puts on his mask with his left hand.
As he strapped on the mask successfully , can he see that the pod door closed and that the cyan blue liquid was starting to pour in and he felt that his conciousness was slipping into a dreamless sleep.
I think this will be the last laugh that im going to have during this mission
Is his last thought before the darkness eats him up. |

Darkness.
Everything he could see was dark.
No contures no familiar forms only a black void.
He looked everywhere up, down, left, right and behind his back but there was nothing, nothing only the emptiness of this abyss.
He saw something in the corner of his eye, a light.
It was white like porcelain but far more intense and it burned in his eyes, but he couldn't look away.
The light came closer and closer and the burning was getting even more painful then did it engulf him.
This was the moment where he gasped for air in his new body.
***********
Ermac coughed very loudly inside his helmet, he got his fit under control as he opened these eyes and took 3 long inhales and exhales to calm the body and his mind down.
A little bumpy but everything seems to be fine
Are his thoughts as he reads the typical boot up sequence for this his brand new Caldari Commando suit model ck.0
Let's see if this purchase was a good idea afterall
The start sequence ended with his optical sensors activating and showing him that he was suspended in the air, and he couldn't move.
"Ehm I think im..." where the only words that came from his mouth as the mag locks on his suit clicked and dropped him to the ground with him letting out a suprised :"DAMN!".
During his landing does he lose his balance and falls on his ass, he mumbles silently a few curses while he get's back up.
As he stands on his two legs again, arrives a drone and the technican who got his arm and made a routine checkup on his suit.
"Hey did you find a good place for my arm?" Asks Ermac as the drone pulls up his right arm to check under it.
"Yeah yeah it's in my locker everything is fine. Could you hold still the drone is a little fidgety when it comes to movement during the scan."
He obeys and stands still for the entirety of the scan which takes a minute.
"Scan is complete and the suit is A okay, you are ready to go." Says the tech in a rather professional tone as the drone moves away from Ermac.
"Nice, hmm eh where do I get my weapons?" Is his question as he inspect the suit on his own a little.
"Ask the armory drones, the ones with the claw hands, they will hand it to you if you tell them your name." is his answer as he taps on the datapad in his hand.
Ermac gave him a simple thank you and moved towards the armory and promptly found one of the "claw drones".
He orders one of them towards him and gives it his request and name.
The drone made click clacking sounds as it moved away to retrieve his weapons.
While Ermac waits does he hear another drone behind him it was one of the tech drones, he spins around to look at it.
"Do you wish to download a map for the Location of the operation?" asks the drone in a emotionless metallic voice:" It is highly recommended for every member of the team to posess this data so that the mission can go fluently."
He doesn't even hestitate with his answer:" Of course would I like to have a map of the ship thank you very much."
Ermac get's a message on his HUD that the drone ask for permission to download the map into his suit which he accepts.
As the download ends moves the drone away, and is being replaced by the armory drone which hands him his Kaalakiota Rail rifle, his Duvolle assault rifle both with the fitting magazines, 3 locus grenades and a nanohive model K-9.
He inspects his weapons, gear and suit again as the drone leaves and decides that everything was still fine, he looks back to the capsules to see his own body floating in the liquid behind the glass panel, like some kind of a preserved specimen for a lab.
... Why is this so damn creepy... whatever I need to talk to this Galm guy before this starts, moving alone inside that ship is not very wise and the chances are always better when there are two people working on a job, the rest can try to get the artifact.
I think Kador, Denak, Jacques and Hawk can tame this wild bunch.
With this in mind moves Ermac towards one of the armor shelves, leans against it and inspects his new suit properly while he waits for Galm to wake up. |

"Saisa, Mr. Fae" responds Ermac as he stops infront of him and copys the salute but with more vigor.
"I heard that you want to go alone to the bridge. I thought that it would be a better idea if 2 of us could do that part of the mission just to make sure that nothing happens."
Ermac didn't know that man, nor did he have any idea how he is going to react to his offer to help him, but to be quiet frank is that not important for him.
What is important is that he knew that he would end as the 5th wheel on the wagon when it came to the artifact, and sending one comrade alone without someone to cover his back is never a good idea.
That and he was a little curious about that man, and why he was so fixated on the Templar.
The info of what happend to the ship, is just a nice extra for the job
Ermac stretches his armored hand out towards Galm and asks:" I hope that this partnership will end in great success comrade wouldn't you agree?"
And let's hope that we can get each other out of the ship before they decide to just leave us there. |

Ermac watched silently as Mr.Ventus went on with his speech and how Denak , Galm and Kador countered the mans arguments about how socialization and communication is "important" before the mission and how they will fail the operation if they don't follow his lead.
His younger self would have agreed with Roy back when he was a sec officer and the first democratic revolution was knocking with ginourmos hammers on the gates of the security offices on his home station.
But back then was he just a mortal who just wanted to survive this madness and needed a leader to bring him hope.
Now was he a little wiser and disagreed with Mr. Ventus, a group like this doesn't need a leader or someone who thinks that he is in charge.
A leader is dangerous he is the concentrated backbone of a group, if he is gone is the group confused and can be disposed of in less than a second.
The best example happend during his mission in the Raider complex, where steady the leader of the group back then went mad and the entire mission was on the brink of failure because of that.
That and he thinks that this man would gladly sacrifice one of them if it means that he can get out there with the money and his life, the socialization part could just be a method of trying to find the right way to manipulate the others to think that he is always right in his decision.
Either that or he is just a hot head who thinks that he is high and mighty because of his own experience.
Ermac couldn't decide which of the two options is worse for the missions flow.
Still this does not change the fact that some of his comrades are observing Galm very closely which he didn't like.
He wasn't sure either what he should make with this strange fellow, sure he made a few pokes on his former team members honor, but he is honest and knows when to stop with the jokes and be serious.
Ermac accepted that he was his comrade, and having bad blood between comrades for lowly reasons is never good.
This reminds him of something that he learned back in the boot camp when his Drill Seargent found him and another kadet fighting, he couldn't remember what the reason, was but he thinks it was something about a **** mag and someones mother being the cover girl.
Point is Drill Seargent M+ñkela punched both stupid and she screamed so loud that almost his ear drums exploded, he thought back in the days.
Her words where:" IF BOTH OF YOU MAGGOTS WANT TO KILL EACH OTHER IS THAT NOT MY PROBLEM AS LONG AS YOU DON'T SERVE FOR THE STATE BUT I SWEAR IF BOTH OF YOU S&"% EATING MUTANT RATS THINK THAT YOU CAN DO THIS DURING YOUR SERVICE TIME AM I GOING TO RIP OF YOURE F&/-ºING ARMS AND LEGS AND THROW YOU PERSONALLY INTO A POOL OF MERIT+äTHI AND THAT WOULD BE A NICE END FOR BOTH OF YOU HORRIBLE EXCUSES OF STATE SOLDIERS!
YOU ARE COMRADES YOU GET THAT! COMRADES NOT ONLY FIGHT TOGETHER, THEY EAT TOGETHER, THEY DRINK TOGETHER, THEY SLEEP TOGETHER AND THEY DIE TOGETHER! COMRADES DON'T GIVE A DAMN IF THEY DON'T LIKE EATCH OTHER, COMRADES DON'T GIVE A DAMN IF YOU ARE POOR OR RICH, COMRADES DON'T GIVE A DAMN IF YOU KILLED SOMEONE. THE ONLY THING THAT A COMRADE GIVES A F$%& ABOUT IS TO SURVIVE A FIGHT WITH HIS COMRADES TO FIGHT TOMMORROW AGAIN WITH HIS COMRADES!
FORGET YOUR PRIDE, SOCIAL STATUS, BLOOD LINE, RELIGION AND OTHER S$"-º BECAUSE YOU ARE ALL COMRADES WHEN YOU WORK TOGETHER AND NOTHING ELSE!"
To further prove her point did she handcuff both of them together and made them clean the toilets with toothbrushes until they sparkled. Both of them became good friends and a very good team during squad coordination trainings after that incident.
From this day on is every person he works with a comrade no matter what the person did or what the person sayed, for they are all just comrades who just want to survive.
Roy and Galm are no exception, and Ermac hoped that they also see it in that kind of way.
He turns to Galm after Roy went out and says:" Well that is a thing" he shrugs to prove his point that he doesn't care for the mans outburst and continues :" Well whatever, im happy that there is no problem with us doing some jolly cooperation comrade and I hope the others will calm down so that we can finally start this mission with a clear head."

The armory was filled with many sounds as Ermac passed through it.
Everything was in motion, the clickity clack of the armory drones that move through the staches to find the right type of ammo or equipment that the boarding vessel could need for the mission.
The shouting of orders from the techs and workers who try to maintain the control over the entire work flow, and the hammering, sizzling, clanging of working tools being used by the humans and drones.
All these sounds and all this movement are drowning the thuds of his suits boots as he passes through.
This made him rather nostalgic again, it reminded him of the work cycles that they had on his homestation.
It would always start at 6 am on the stations primary clock till 6 pm, and it was always so damn loud, if you had a free day and tried to sleep longer was that not possible because of all these wonderful noises starting at the same time.
He hated it back in the days, and now does he miss all these sounds, nostalgica is sometimes very strange.
Ermac observes for a few more minutes the work place till he decides to move along.
He slowly walks through the armory and sees that there are a bunch of offices at the other end of the armory built into the white wall with black glass doors that prevent one to see inside the small offices, and screwed in datapads which show whos room it is by showing the name , line of work and rank in the hirachy of said line.
He was already bored and decided to count all the offices just to pass the time, but as he starts to move along the line of doors does he notice something new on his HUD which he didn't notice during his first check.
There was a extra menu which he could access with his NEOcomm.
Since when do we have that in the system?
Ermac activates the computer on his wrist and starts to look what these "extras" are.
magnetic boots.... booster rocket control.... shield modification? And is that a Geiger counter? They made the suits fit for space, how nice of them and I thought that they would just throw us into that mission without proper gear. But still I should ask what else they changed just to be sure.
He moves now a little faster between the glass doors and finds the office of one of the techs foremans with the name Maurice Laval.
He knocks 3 times on it very gently so that nothing happens but he doesn't get a response.
Dissapointed by this does he turn towards the way he came and sees that a technician standing before him.
It was the same one who took his arm but he doesn't look tired anymore, the best description for his mood would be annoyed.
"What do you want now and what are you doing infront of my office, I told you that arm is save." His words have a hostile undertone which should make Ermac clear that he is not interested in more shenanigans.
"I am sorry if I am going on your nerves Mr. Laval but I noticed that our suits have been modified and I just wanted to ask if you can give me more details on the extras?"
While Ermac speaks is Laval concentrating on grabbing a pack of cigarettes that he got in the pocket of his jumpsuit and get's one of the smokes out and lights it up as he finishes his sentence.
He inhales deeply and exhales the smoke out of his nostrils and let's out a sigh.
"Hmm Oh man I needed that. You want one too?" Asks Laval as he presents him the box.
"Sure why not." Answers Ermac, he was no stranger to it but he never got addicted to it.
He takes off his helmet and takes one smoke out and holds it against Lavals Lighter and puts it in his mouth and starts to enjoy a short and silent smoke break with the tech.
As both of them reach half a burned cigarette is it Ermac who breaks the silence:" So about those extras I was talking about?"
Laval takes the smoke out of his mouth and rubs his chin:" Let me think... Oh yeah!" He snaps his fingers as the memorys return into his head:" Now I remember, you know why WS is so damn dangerous and why we can't let you out in those dropsuits?" He asks him while he takes another breath full of smoke.
"Of course not only is it space which our suits can't quite handle because they are made for planetary missions not for space itself. But WS can have high amounts of Radiation which could cook a man without a properly isolated suit in a minute or less." Ermac takes another breath of smoke as he ends his answer.
"Interesting" Says Laval as he exhales another cloud of smoke :" Where you born on a space ship maybe?".
Ermac exhales an even bigger cloud as Laval and shakes his head:" No but pretty close it was a station in orbit of a planet."
"Ahhh that explains it." He closes his eyes and takes the last cloud of smoke in before the cigarette burns down and he throws it down and stomps it out.
He exhales one more time before he answers:" Yeah that is right you could be bombarded with Radiation the moment you go out and your suits needed to be overhauled so that they work in space. We made them vacuum tight and gave them an oxygen tank which can be refilled in the ship when air is available, it's enough to get everything done that you need to do outside.
Next did we instal magnetic boots to the suits so that you don't fly away from the ship easily, don't worry it runs with it's own battery they don't live from the suits energy system.
The boosters are for movement in zero-G and emergency situations like if one of you guys somehow manages to fly off into space can you still move back to the ship, but the fuel is rather limited."
Ermac listens closely as he finsihes his smoke
" The shields have been modified to take on the radiation and you guys got a special armor plating which should help too. with the G. c. would be everything "
Ermac stretches his arm out and says:" Thank you Laval". The tech shakes it and goes silently in his office.
And with that was Ermac bored again. |

Laying on his back on an ammo box near the hangar was Ermac once again bored and stared up into the ceiling once more.
He didn't know when he developed this strange behaviour, but it somehow helped him to ignore everything and made the time melt away like an ice cube next to an engine.
His thoughts where everywhere except for the mission which he tried to forecefully ignore.
Like his memory when he saw the sky for the first time, he always knew that when he looks up that there would be a grey ceiling with lights on it,or maybe a glass roof where he could see hundreds of feet stepping on it.
But when he had his first monthly shift on dantumi 3's bogs and swamps, and he exited for the first time the transport shuttle which would come back after a month, was he terrified.
He thought he would fall into the sky when he saw that big blue ocean with white and grey tufts above him, but after a few hours of him just watching the way in front of him and his feet did he decide to take the risk and watch it for a few minutes and this took his fear away.
He saw the beginning of a lightning storm that came from the west and he only knew those from watching the planet from above, it was one of the most wonderful things he ever saw, till it hit them and it started to rain out of buckets for an entire week.
Still was it this moment that made him realize how much he doesn't know about the beauty of the galaxy around them all.
There is also danger in beauty, this was one of the lesson that he learned from his fellow officers during his 1st month.
And this brought him back to the mission which terrified him, it was one thing to get out of a station to find a hidden smuggler hideout on the surface of it.
But it was something different to get out into WS and board a ship from which they don't know what happend to it.
But he was also interested to find out what things they will encounter during this mission.
His fascination and fear reminded him of his memory, he was afraid of the unknown but he still wanted to see it.
' Is that typical? I don't know but still I need to keep my eyes and ears open, it will be like back in the swamps.
Never have a dull moment or someone or myself will be lost forever in the darkness.'
Are his thoughts as he watches the timer in his HUD showing the central New eden time and it was near the moment they planned to meet.
Ermac stands up and stretches his back and leans himself in a standing position against the box.
'Well then let's see if the darkness is going to embrace us in a tight hug or a chrushing grip' Is the thought that travels through his head as he starts to wait for the others to arrive. |

Ermacs thoughts got interupted by the robotic voice telling them all to board the ship that he was close to he locked around and saw that Hawkeye was already on his way with a cap on his helmet which was a little to small for it but it still fitted.
Even though it looked ridicoulis could Ermac feel that a smile was creeping up towards his face.
' I have to correct myself. THIS will be the last laugh that im going to have in this mission' he thinks while Hawk moves towards him.
He liked Hawkeye he was strange but he was also reliable, a good Kirjuun who is not afraid to sometimes act first and then to think of his actions afterwards.
Which is in Ermac eyes an ability that can help in many situations where people only talk but they don't wanna act.
And the fact that he rescued him from getting choked by a nameless Scout was also a big plus.
As Ermac tries to grab his hands and answer his question can he feel how his box was slipping away from his back, he steps away and sees how a crane is moving it into the ship.
He recollects himself and shakes Hawks hand:" Of course im ready a better question would be if that ship and whatever brought it in this situation is ready for us." He says with a light chuckle.
" But I hope you have some experience when it comes to being in space, they even modified our suits for that purpose." he taps against his own helmet while he speaks, with a serious undertone in his voice:" I hope I don't have to educate you on how to use a Geiger Counter."
Ermac remembered something that he forgot to mention:" Oh yeah im not going to join the main team I go with Galm for the data. I hope you guys can handle this with the "hot shots" in our team"
Ermac also wanted to mention that he was a little afraid but he decided that he didn't needed to burden someone else with his worrys.
With that did he move inside the ship which his equipment scanner classified as a amarrian cruiser of the "pilgrim" class, it didn't look like it could pack a punch but it was enough for this mission.
He moved inside and saw how Galm also entered the Pilgrim and took a seat before Ermac could, and then did he make his offer for some small talk before his mission.
Ermac decided against it they will have plenty of time inside that ship for talk, he takes a seat opposite of galms side but in the middle of the row and made himself comfy.
Which was a challenge in itself with his commando suit and the seats being just a metal plate that one has to tilt down to take a seat on it.
' Relaxation is a luxury during this mission' he thinks bitterly. |

Ermac raised his eyebrow under his helmet, after that statement.
She was right when it came to speed but that was not his problem, the problem that he had was a far more simple one.
Scouts are fast that was clear but they also easily die and they don't have the firepower to get through much and who knows if the enemy that they are going to face can be even tricked by cloaking.
He was not happy with that decision but he decided to not voice it out.
But the next idiot who decides to make him angry would get his mechanical fist in his face and he hoped it's going to be one of the enemys and not a friendly.
' Speed my ass this is going to be a marathon and the guys who run fast at the beginning are known to fall down first and wheeze for air.' He thinks while he tries to swallow down his anger.
Still does it seem like that he needs to sit down and take it but, if anything fails is it not going to be his fault because he didn't make the plan.
' Yep I wont enjoy this mission but at least am I not going to be the only one who won't enjoy this. ' |

After reading the mission objectives and details, was it clear for Ermac that his and Galms idea would have never worked, even with the firepower that they already possesed wouldn't that be enough to get through all the security drones and that the entire ship is a maze doesn't help at all.
He was never interested in the old civilisation, but this idea of having so many dead ends that the enemy just gives up sounded like a good idea.
That is until said enemy has enough and just blasts his way through the ship with tons of breach bombs.
What also worried him was the prospect of not only having to fight a bunch of very tall and extremly dangerous security drones, but also serpentis pirates who want to make a lot of cash with the relics that are on board and they are not going to be happy to see them there.
And who knows what other security measures that ship has.
' I should have asked for a raise when I had the opportunity....' .
With that in mind is he going through the intel again, finding the crew is going to be a lucky guess without any way to contact them via Comms.
The Gravimetric system sounds for him like something that doesn't like to get fluxed, that would be the most drastical but also shortest solution for it.
Now on the point of navigating that place, that still gave him a headache how are they going to tell the others where a dead end is and where not before they obtain the map?
He tries to read a specific part but he get's distracted by the Geiger Counter that he forgot to turn off.
' Damn couldn't they place it in a better part of my already full HUD? Im lucky that Jacques is not using his ammo as "war paint" again or that thing would go crazy.... Hey that could be an idea.'
"I have an idea." He says in a rather louder tone to get the attention of the others which was easy with the in built communicator in his suit.
He continues :" The ship is a damn maze and without communications is it going to be difficult to find each other. This is why I think that we should mark the way were someone went to make sure that the others, or someone who got lost can find his or her way back and that fast."
He makes a short pause and looks around ,hoping that everyone is still listening.
"But it would also help the enemy to find us too, which is why I think that we should use something that only we can recognize as a marking."
With that does he tap on his helmet and speaks again:" We all have a Geiger Counter in our HUD, how about we use a specific radioactive material as the mark, and everytime we hear or see that the Counter reacts is that the way we have to go."
