Gampu waved his hand in front of the circular blue design on the screen. The door made a noise similar to how Loki's lyrotron sounded when played a certain tune. Loki walked in from behind Peepo and Gampu looking around the room. It was very clean, well organized, and seemed less organic but more machine made. Loki came to a stop behind the door then looked around the room as Gampu and Peepo moved toward the table set in the center.

Across from the table resembled a strange brown helmet that had a rounded light gray fixture that had a hole from inside the white interior. The chairs were bright gray with white additions. The red of the carpeting stood out against the darker red theme decorating the walls from alongside the light brown wall paneling. Gampu slid out the chair from beside him. Loki saw from the other side of the room there was a second room that had a doorway shaped much like the design seen on every door throughout campus except it wasn't painted red with white slots alongside the middle of the door.

The shape was made by two additional panels that had been molded to the exact shape. In the second room was a thin bed built into the wall and the windows that displayed space seemed to be scarce in numbers. Loki walked into the room to find there wasn't much space to move around except to get into bed and fall asleep. He placed a hand on the side of the doorway looking around the tight space from within the room. Loki turned around then walked out of the second room where he returned into the room then sat down beside the commander. He looked around observing the beige wall that had nothing decorating it on the right side of the room.

Loki placed his hand on the unique surface of one padd. The padd had two blocks that were different in width and size. The one on the left had four rows of three buttons. The row on the right had one row that consisted of four buttons. The buttons were outlined in black that made them stand out against the square texture on the surface that felt bumpy to his fingers but hard. Beneath the second block was four black boxes made of screen. Loki furrowed his brows then looked toward the older man.

"Is there supposed to be words or something on it?"

"Datapadds have changed a lot from text to no text," Gampu began. "I remember when they used to be Iphones, Ipads, foldable phones," he looked down toward the boy. "But that is a lesson for another time."

"So it's a phone?" Loki asked.

"This is a phone," Gampu placed a long but short device on to the table. "This is the collinear. It works by verbal command but you have to say the recipients full name or else you will get the wrong person."

"That must not happen often,"

Gampu put the collinear back.

"There are some cases,"

Loki's eyes were aimed on the buttons.

"How many letters are there?"

"Twenty-six,"

Loki looked up toward the commander with intrigued eyes.

"That's a lot,"

"A lot, indeed." Gampu briefly raised his brows then lowered them. "All of them are on this side and the numbers are on the right side," Gampu said, gesturing over the padd toward the specific points that he was referring to. "Press once for the letter you want, but if you want a different letter then you have to press it again."

"What are these buttons for?" Loki pointed toward the flat square boxes standing out against the light gray theme.

"Scrolling up, down, left, right," Gampu looked toward the black screen. "This is the screen where the text appears. Do you know how to spell?"

"I don't know,"

"Spell Loki,"

"L. . . o . . . o . . k. . . y,"

"That was close, Loki, but it is spelled L-o-k-i,"

"L. . . o. . k. . i,"

"Good, good, good," Gampu nodded. "Now watch this."

Gampu slowly pressed the buttons with precision and care as the texture appeared before Loki's eyes in light blue format.

"Loki!" Loki said. "That is my name!"

"Yes, yes, it is," came the commander's unimpressed reply. "Last name."

Loki started to open his mouth but stopped, the words on the tip of his tongue, but couldn't come out.

"I. . . I don't remember,"

Gampu looked toward the boy, pitying, briefly grimacing.

"That is a bit of downer, but being able to read will do," Gampu said. "Do you know how old you are?"

"Uh. . . Seven? Eight?" Loki looked off. "I am not sure." Loki shook his head. "I feel really old but very young."

"Aren't we all," Gampu said, pressing the buttons. "Unknown age," he looked toward the boy. "Belongings?"

"Just my lyrotron, clothes, and this," Loki pointed toward the necklace.

"It is quite a interesting amulet you have there," Gampu said.

"Thanks," Loki said. "My father gave it to me." His eyes brightened. "Camelopardalis! I have a father!"

"Good," Gampu said. "You will remember in little to no time about who you are and what you are."

"Do you have superpowers?" Loki asked.

"My super powers are being human," Gampu said. "That's what I am. Most creatures from other planets call my species Earthlings."

"Earthlings sounds really special," Loki noted.

"Not the center of the unique," Gampu said. "Everyone is special. We just have to remember that." He looked down toward the padd. "Now, where to next," he glanced toward the screen. "Planet of origin."

"Zalon," Loki said. "It is where you found me."

"Are you sure about that?" Gampu asked. "You cannot change this fact long after your memories are regained."

"This is a new me," Loki said. "I am sure. For all I know, I was reborn there."

"Point made," Gampu said. "Parents."

"None," Loki said. "You are pulling my leg."

"It is part of this specific padd," Gampu said. "Grandparents."

"None,"

"Date of birth,"

"None,"

"Height,"

"Three feet ten inches,"

"Eye color," Gampu looked toward Loki. "I will get that." he typed away on the padd. "Hobbies."

"You are pulling my leg, Commander," Loki said.

"You are a quick learner," Gampu looked down with a smile toward Loki. "Ethnicity."

"Not a Earthling," Loki said. "Zaloning? Zalonan? Zalonian? Zalusia? Zalonia?"

"I will just put Zalon," Gampu said. "Temporary guardian," Gampu looked toward the boy. "I will need to fill that last part out then we're done on this paperwork," he looked down toward the padds then back toward the boy. "But we will need to get you on being adept to using it then we need to get you dinner from the commissary."

"What is a commisa-commissare-"

"Commissary,"

"Comm-Commissary," Loki said. "What is that?"

"A place that one gets food," Peepo spoke up. "That is the food store I mentioned."

"Always the helpful one," Gampu said. "Do you happen to remember where that is, Loki?"

"Yeah, I do!" Loki said. "Which of the . . ."

"Keys,"

"Keys," Loki said. "Stand for which letters?"

"Row one has abc def," Gampu started. "Row two has ghi jkl. Row three is lmn opq. Row four is qrs tuv wyx z."

"Why does row four have more letters than the others?" Loki asked.

"Not enough letters to warrant a new button," Gampu replied.

"Okay," Loki said.

"And the other set of keys stand for zero, one, two." Gampu lowered his hand down a box. "This box has three, four, five." his finger went down further. "This one has six seven eight." His finger went down to the last button. "And nine."

"Why isn't there-" Loki stopped as he saw the look on Gampu's face then it came to him. "There is not enough numbers to need another button."

"Exactly, Loki," Gampu handed the boy a padd. "This is a practice padd," Loki looked down toward the padd. "Type the alphabet."

"Press the button once or more to get the letter that I need. . ."

Loki looked up toward Gampu who didn't correct on it then his attention went back down toward the datapadd. Loki pressed the buttons then watched as the letters appeared on the black screen in blue. Unbeknownst to Loki, Gampu was beginning to grow a smile out of pride at the quick progress.
