Our reflections of each factor have been completed as we now converse quietly in the meeting room on the second floor. Unfortunately, this Garden holds merely one small elevator, fitting at most, three people at a time. This was indeed a trouble to us as we had a tight schedule. In addition, the elevator was quite slow as it took its time traveling between the first and second floors. Fifteen precious minutes bit the dust, as in groups of four; we were transported to our room.
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity to our complex minds, we were all assembled together in the plainly furnished room.
Wholeheartedly, we agreed on creating one variable environment at a time, to not complicate the already delicate experiment. The idea of deceiving both factors and trapping them in one empty room was too simple and pathetic. We needed something multifarious, something that showed even a tinge of our brilliance.
Pens tapped divertingly against the wooden desks as we sat still and concentrated.
At last, a plan was, indeed an exceptional one. Why not involve the headmaster in the experiment? We could ask of a counterfeit mission for him to assign to Miss Trepe and Mr. Almasy.
This seemed simple, but complicating things only muddled them up, most of the time. For this, we did not need a mass of notes to remember and keep track of.
The stratagem was interesting, yet there was a flaw. We had to be able to note their movements and comments. Then it was decided that we should include one of us as a supposed "third wheel." An inconspicuous recorder would be pinned to their collar and they would remember carefully the mission's events. We inquired among ourselves who had the sharpest memory among us and then chose the quiet Mica, for her keen memory.
Mica would feign interest in how these missions were operated, and with a bit of luck, she would be able to experience the term Mr. Kramer calls "Teamwork." Collaboration, "…cooperation is as vital a thing is as loyalty… sense of pride as SeeD."
Phase One of Experiment GOLD was half-complete. We had only to see if Cid was in the frame of mind to agree without any dangerous hesitance.
