Right then..
Nodding once to the silent President, she follows the others to the door stepping in behind them into the clean bright hallway as the door hisses closed behind her. Her palm presses forcefully onto the textured butt of her blaster, drawing her short fingernails compulsively over the textured lines of the weapon and effectively jamming it into it's holster. Pupils narrowing to mere slits in a short and purely internal fit of annoyance, her gaze flicks sharply to the other two, booted feet squeaking slightly as she sets off down the black tiled hall.
"Right. Let's get to the Infirmiry.. I'll let you two do the interrogating itself..I'll just observe."
Pausing briefly near the main entrance, she donns her sunglasses, takes one more moment to soak in the cool, comfortable air of the Hall, then steps out into the heat.
Oh gods..I hate hot.
She blinks for a few moments as the heat and impossibly bright sky and sand explodes into her vision, despite the precaution of shades, and burns a set of wildly blinking lights swarming into her eyesight. The hot sand, radiating the heat from Sol, washes up upon her like a wave, the small grains themselves brushing up against her previously black boots and grinding them into even further disrepair. At least the hall was not situated in the even hotter flowing sand dunes to the west.. no building needing a foundation could survive for any time in that shifting white hot sea.

The rocks here were red, and the earth relatively hard, though still sandy, crunching under her soles as she strides twoards one of the newly aquired hover craft already lined up in replacement of the more damaged ATV's which were being repaired. A brief glance over her shoulder confirms the continued presence of the other two women as she slips lithely aboard the bike and starts the motor. The engine whirrs and the machine rises, hovering a foot an a half above the dreadful, head oozing sands. At least these were cooler than the grounded ATV's... without the friction of tires and sand, and a small, virtually unheatable engine, the rider was saved a considerable amount of excess heat.
Securing her position, she presses forward, slowly at first, then, when sure the others would follow, turning about and skimming like a falcon twoards the small clutter of buildings in the distance..and the Infirmiry.
(ooc: we don't have to leave a message in the colony square if you don't want.. I'll leave a message right at the Infirmiry tomorrow)
