It had been a war zone. The Grinders and the Stingers had been taken out in the city and park area, but the people had yet to actually return. Tia supposed that was natural. Even if homes were here, who would want to come back when the enemy was just eliminated? There might be more out there.
She sighed and sat on a park bench. ATLANTIS was always in danger, so couldn't the people just move on and return, and know that their Ranger teams were there to save them?

The Stone Fleugel descended through the clouds into the desolate place, flying around it once before landing...producing Rei in a glow of blue light behind two buildings, before flying away at high speed. The traveler herself walked out from behind the building, heading through the park. So this was the artificial landmass...that the Earth cried out against. She could understand the reason it had been made...but she could also see the reaction to it.
The traveler strode on, in blue jeans, black boots, and a brown jacket, her hair being tied up behind her head. Her eyes were bastions of calmness, as she traveled this new area....

Tia looked around. There were scars in the ground from the battle. It was ugly, but would be fixed. She looked and saw Rei. At least someone was coming back.

Rei stepped over a scar calmly, heading in Tia's direction without realizing it...noting the other woman's presence, but not assigning any particular significance to it.

She got up and walked towards the other woman, "I'm glad to see someone back, at least."

Rei looks up, her eyes meeting Tia's...a lot being exchanged in one glance...before nodding. "I suppose so, hmm? The wounds on this place are grievous...to be sure. Perhaps you can tell me of them?"

"This is a place where we fought the enemy to protect ATLANTIS," she told Rei.

Rei looked at her for a moment....so that was the name of this landmass. It seemed nice enough, from the planet's lore. "We?" she questioned, honestly not knowing of the teams here.

"The NEXT team that my brother leads," she explained.

"Ah yes...a team of heros and heroines. I've heard of such people in my travels. And who's the enemy? They seem pretty fearsome to be able to do all of this." Rei gave, calmly.

"We don't know what to call them. We call them 'Rogues'," she said, "That's the best we can figure to call them. Those 'Rogues' and machines."

"Two threats, then." Rei contemplated. "I suppose this area's lucky then, to have you around. Do they only come on the ground, or do they become bigger?" she gave, curious.

"They grow," she said, "Why?"
Was this person from the mainland, then?

"Curiosity...that's all." Rei said, shrugging. "I didn't get your name."

"Tia Patel," she said, "NEXT Pink."
