Phoebe walked in noticing the dining hall was empty. The clunking of her boots could be heard echoing inside, but it was not so extraordinary now that she realized they made noise wherever she walked. Although the Mess Hall was empty now, it would probably be full when mealtime occured.
Sitting at one of the tables, Phoebe laid her head on her arms and closed her eyes in an amateurish attempt at meditation. Although she left the Headquarters to "explore," she realized rather quickly there was nothing to see. She already knew the floorplans of the base. There was the Mess Hall, a Gym, an Arena, the Bunkers, the Dungeons... All were probably as she imagined or already seen: dark, gloomy, and dreadful. She was better off waiting until mealtime or training.
