Philip approaches the rusted metal door cautiously, pushing it open when he sees that it no longer has a functioning handle. There's no one here... Some revelation that was. Great detective work, Phil. You'll be a great addition to the team. There's some sort of machine shoved in the corner, but it looks dead. He goes to investigate anyway. After all, there's really nothing better to do. There's heat radiating from the metal, which he stupidly touched. Now his finger's burned and he still has no idea where his "teammates" are supposed to be. This oddly-warm contraption seems to really be no help to him, at least not in finding this Young Justice thing. Philip knocks on a piece of corrugated metal, making a hollow thump that echoed throughout the old factory. Maybe there was someone who would hear him. Or maybe he just got the address wrong.

"I know it's a hassle, but it could be nice. I think I'll give it a shot for a least a little while," Victoire chirped. "I guess we'd be enrolling in that school down the street from the factory."

"Unfortunately, the higher-ups prefer not to have a team of truants. So we enroll at Silver Academy, which is the school you're talking about. It's okay, I already go there and--" Jack's phone buzzed in his pocket. "Looks like the sensors on the portal picked someone up." He turned the screen so that the team could see the video feed-- a boy poking around the portal.

Philip sighs and sits down on the cold concrete floor. Pulling out his phone, he scrolls through his inbox, searching for that official-looking email he'd gotten last week. Well, the address is correct. He takes another look around, just in case he was hallucinating and was actually sitting in the middle of a high tech superhero base with neat machines and hopefully some stuff to make poutine with.

"Who's this?" Maya asked, wondering how many more people there were going to be in the team. It was very interesting to see who she would be working with for the next few years.

"Lemme check the files." Jack changed a tab on his phone, photo images of the Manila folders showing up. "Alright. There's two other guys due to show up, so this is either... Derren or Piripi. Hope I'm pronouncing that correctly." He paused for a moment before turning to the team. "Does someone else want a turn at talking to the kid over the speaker?"

"Oooooh, I'll do it!" Lauren said, beaming. She moved forwards, almost tripping as she made her way to the speaker. "Okay, how do I do it?"

Fernando vaguely recognized the format of the speaker, a standard M3 2-way, probably operating on 158 watts. "Just press the red button and speak," he suggested. "Oh, and press the button that says Camera 002."

She paused, studying the buttons for a few moments before pressing them. "Hello? Oh, am I doing this right? I don't know if he can hear me or not. Can you hear me from down there?"

The sound of a human voice filling the empty space startles him and he attempts to scramble to his feet, which leaves him on his back. As Philip stares at the high ceiling, recovering from his fall, the girl's question finally registers in his brain. His face burns when he realizes she won't get an answer. Not a verbal one, anyway. Nevertheless, he stands, brushes himself off, and responds with a small nod.

"Sorry, sorry, sorry!" She squealed as he fell. "That wasn't supposed to happen - I'm so sorry. Erm... Oh, yeah! There's a silver panel just to the left of you. Well, it's to the left of you from where I'm looking - I suppose it's to your right side. Just hop on there and we'll get you across here in no time."

"Alright, let's go to the entrance to meet him, he'll be confused if he sees no one there," Jack told the rest of the team. "Keep going, Lauren, you're doing great."

She beamed. "Thank you! I'm new to all of this, and I've never been that great with technology really. I'll leave it to you in the future."

Fernando nodded, heading to the entrance. "I wonder who he is? He hasn't talked much.."

"I think that's the Piripi guy. It makes sense... In his file, it said that he's mute..." Jack shifted on his foot. Maybe he should stop mentioning the files so much. Would they find out how throughly he had read them, studied the others who would become his teammates? Probably not...

"Aaah, that's so sad," Lauren said, tilting her head as she studied the screen again. "I wonder why."

The Canadian follows Lauren's instructions, still wondering where the camera was. Obviously there was video surveillance in this place. He steps inside the old machine and it whirs to life around him. There's a tightening in his chest and suddenly, he's standong amongst, or rather over, five othe people. Philip's not usually one to stare, but he does now. His gaze skims over each of them in turn, soaking up as many details as he can in the brief moment, and eventually settles on the floor. He takes a small step back, the silence growing rather thick and uncomfortable.

"Hello!" She babbled, jumping up to greet him. "I'm Lauren Lane. Jack said you're Piripri. It's lovely to meet you." She extended a hand to him, her already impossibly large smile widening.

This was the girl who'd been talking to him over the speakers in the factory... He shakes her hand after some hesitation, thoroughly taken aback by her enthusiastic welcome. Philip gives Lauren a small smile in return and nods.
