A few steps into the woods and a loud crunch caused him to stop. That crunch didn't sound like branches or leaves and sounded more like the noise glasses made when you stepped on them. Simmons lifted his foot to see just how the hell he'd managed to find the only pair of glasses on the floor of a forest and was surprised to find, instead, a small cell phone-like device.

The hell? "What is this thing?" He wondered under his breath and reached down to pick up the almost-familiar device. Whatever the hell it was, he'd managed to crack the screen down the middle, and it was a little tricky to turn the thing on with his gloves on.

Still, it managed to come to life and didn't seem any worse off for the crack. Simmons watched as the screen displayed its opening tutorial, reading the information eagerly. "Junogam..." It wasn't a familiar term, but he was interested in this WillaKnet it talked about. Once it prompted for his name and a password he typed it in and hit send-

Only to hear someone yelling nearby. "What the hell...?" He pocketed the thing before he could see if it had accepted his information and started off in the direction of the sound. Assault rifle still at the ready, he moved over to find out who the hell was yelling and at what.

"What is this? A PDA? Or like, one of those Blackberries? Man, I always wanted one of those!" Donut continued talking to himself as the Junogram went through the tutorial, watching the screen intently. A name and password? Well, that was a little weird. "...hmn..." After a moment's thought, Donut started gingerly typing on the device, making sure not to press the buttons too hard. If he broke this thing, he doubted he could find anyone to fix it! It might be his last hope!

Fiddling around with it, Donut wasn't entirely paying attention to what was going on around him. All he cared to fixate his eyes on was in his hands, and so he didn't quite hear if anyone else was approaching from behind.

A little airheaded for just having been shot in the Goddamn stomach not that long ago. But, as far as Donut was concerned, getting this thing running took precedence. "Maybe I can get a hold of Sarge with this doohickey! And then we can have an awesome reunion party!!"
