Scarlet scrubbed out yet another cigarette. She had spent most of the night reading the paperwork Reno had left for her, and it, along with searching the internet a bit, certainly proved interesting enough to keep her awake most of the night. She had managed to get a couch into her office, and sometime around dawn had fallen asleep on it, resting her head on one of the files. To her dismay, she had discovered her access was substancially reduced from before, and it irritated her to no end. How in the world was she supposed to get anything done with no further resources than this? If she didn't at least get a halfway decent lab and some further incentive, she was walking out of here.
Tseng's message to her phone had awakened her, and now she was settling back at her desk for a healthy breakfast of cigarettes and coffee. She raked her fingers through her hair, the cigarettes only slightly taking the edge off her irritation. Tseng's news better be damned good to make up for this. Her old office had been huge and much better equipped. She wasn't some damn secretary, and she refused to be treated like one.
Scarlet powered on the computer and idly surfed the net, reading the news. Nothing had come to her attention that would explain her absence for the past five years, and that bothered her, too. Drumming her fingers on her desk, she waited for Tseng to show up, noting that she was running low on cigarettes. That would need attention, too.
