(Un)Welcome Guest at the Pier
It had been a few days since Arcade had managed to kidnap Mary. She returned to the Pier, to her home with the Future Foundation with an unfortunate guest in tow. Someone many people did not want about, and if they did, it was to talk poorly about her.
Alisa LeBeau was Arcade's unwilling puppet. He hacked into her neurological implants, forcing her to kidnap people and force them into a game of death. She had moments where she could take control, but it was barely enough to prevent people from getting hurt. She sacrificed her own intelligence, her own being, to stop Arcade. She would not be allowed to be used to hurt anymore innocent people. It was perhaps the only self-less act, besides saving Reiko, she had done.
After the Future Foundation scientists got a hold of the implants, they determined that it was impossible to save them. Brand new ones would have to be build and that would take time. Until then, Alisa would need to live without them... and no one could expect the state she was in once they were removed.
Her actions were childish, showing a curiosity for everything. She smiled and laughed in a genuine way, not like how she used to for show. Though confined to a single room, she did not dwell. She thrived.
There was no brooding, no pain, no bumbling when it came to socializing, and no sadness at being left alone for too long. The scientists were befuddled by her actions, until a CAT scan of her brain was taken. The bullet that had damaged her brain did not do as much damage as people thought. It was only the implants themselves that had done the real damage. Alistaire Shaw had been tricked into doing more harm than good when it came to his bodyguard, and he never knew it. A sad irony.
For now, Alisa sat in her room, her eyes glued to a TV. From what Mary heard, Alisa never watched TV, she never got a chance to, and when she did... well... Ryan could attest she would try to cover her tracks about her lack of pop culture. She appeared mesmerized by some play that was being televised, her arms about a pillow, hugging it as the show went on.

Implant installation and some exercise
Her speech patterns had returned to normal and gone was the child-like curiosity about everything. The only thing that did not change was how happy she was. Parts of her memory were still missing, but it did not seem to bother her or matter.
Though she knew better than to leave her room without Mary's permission, Alisa had slipped out to use what looked like a gym facility at Pier 4. She wanted to exercise her limbs and and burn off some energy she had. After finding a balance beam, she pulled herself upon it and began to walk across as though it were second nature to her.
"One foot, in front o' de other." She mumbled to herself, before reaching the end of the beam, turning about, and walking back the way she came. Once she found her balance, Alisa started to do more... well... gymnastic quality work on the beam. Cartwheels, back flips, front flips, all without slipping or falling off the beam.
It was almost as though she had never been injured so severely in the first place.

"Don't think I could do that," she said.
Re: Implant installation and some exercise
His brow furrowed when he went near the gym. He hadn't thought there was any scheduled training. Unless Ryan was up to something. Remi sighed and headed into the gym to make sure this wasn't another ad hoc science experiment going awry.
Once inside all he said was a puzzled "hmm."
Re: Implant installation and some exercise
"Oh, I'm sorry, I will try and be more quiet." She spoke in a very hushed voice, as to not disturb the small child. Her gaze soon turned to Mary, giving her a small wave.

"I was just checking on who was using the gym," Remi said without appreciably lowering his voice. He thought maybe his daughter might like the rumble of Daddy's voice in his chest. "Since there was no training scheduled that I was aware of."
Re: Implant installation and some exercise
She then realized something, and gave a small wave to Remi.
"Oh! Where are my manners. My name is Alisa LeBeau, it is a pleasure to meet you. I am also grateful your scientists are taking such good care o' me."

"Laying around makes patients weaker, so you should get exercise. As long as your doctors know where you are. Remi deNamor, leader of the Imaginauts and new father."
He glanced down at Guin. "She's keeping Alexa and I on our toes. I'm walking around so her mommy gets some time to sleep."
Re: Implant installation and some exercise
"It's nice to meet you, Remi. An' congratulations on becomin' a new father!" Alisa's cheerful smile returned to her lips.

Re: Implant installation and some exercise
"Right now, both of us could do with more sleep, but Alexa can't escape into a sound-muting tank like I can." Thus, why he had the baby with him out and about. He was staying away from any and all biological labs.

Re: Implant installation and some exercise
"You do know you've got at least two other people who can look after her if you both need some z's, right? I mean me and Jacob. Not so sure about Ryan. Mister Movie Star and Baby Poop probably don't mix."
Re: Implant installation and some exercise
"Well, I won't stop any more recovery. Get well, Miss Lebeau." The Atlantean gave a nod to the visitor and started to leave with his daughter.
