[20:01] <01@DeathStar> -0-
[20:01] <01@DeathStar> Stardate: A Few Hours After Last Ep
[20:01] <01@DeathStar> Location: Progenitor Hanger
[20:02] <01@DeathStar> 6* Iceheart's ship remains, or what is left of it, in the Progenitor hanger, which in itself produces no light outside what Eve's ship's lighting can manage. Erevis is kneeling in the center of the hanger, with Isis near her, getting her strength ready to go out into the ship
[20:03] <01@Xanatos> 6* Marcus is inside the ship, napping.
[20:03] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek sits down by the ship, strumming on his guitar.
[20:03] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien shifts out of the ship and moves across the hanger, adjusting a long, dark coat he found
06[20:03] * 01@Angela finishes pulling on a new coat, having changed her clothing since a knife went and pierced the old stuff. She fixes the gear on her belt and Tanuki hops up on her head.
[20:04] <01@Xanatos> 6* Theron is resting still.
06[20:04] * 01@Xanatos hopes down from the ship, peering around he approaches Erevis.
[20:04] <01@Myria> Oh, I wish I were better prepared for this whole affair. *scans the structure of the hangar with her datapad*
[20:04] <01@DeathStar> 6* It's made of unknown metal alloys.
[20:04] <01@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr leans against part of Iceheart's ship, tiredly.
[20:05] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis takes in a breath, then clicks a comm she managed to find, alerting everyone that she is about to go out into the ship with whoever wants to come
02[20:05] * Chad`Winters (chesterbot@c-76-17-179-209.hsd1.mn.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
06[20:06] * 01@Angela heads out, moving to Erevis quietly, tying her hair back into a tail with a single white ribbon.
06[20:06] * 01@Xanatos stops beside her and peers down at her quietly.
[20:06] <01@DeathStar> 6* Alexander moves over to where Erevis is at, and Ao hops down, moving along. Paladin trails Alexander in the dark.
[20:07] <01@Myria> Oh, that's disappointing. Just metals.
[20:07] <01@DeathStar> 6* Isis peers up at Xanatos
06[20:07] * 01@Xanatos holds out a hand.
01[20:07] <01@Angela> "Lots of stuff in metal."
[20:07] <01@DeathStar> 6* Isis tilts her head
[20:07] <01@Myria> But I was hoping for something more interesting. Sure its an alloy not on rcord, but still...
01[20:08] <01@Angela> "I'm sure we can analyse it later and we'll find all sorts of things we don't yet understand."
[20:08] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien shoves his hands into his pockets, probably to hide his dark hand now. He knows how black people must feel
06[20:08] * 01@Xanatos glances to his hand, then her. 1Help up?
[20:08] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek sets the guitar aside and moves over towards the others now.
[20:09] <01@DeathStar> 6* Isis goes to respond, but Erevis speaks, finally opening her eyes. "In a moment. I have some questions that I would like to discuss."
06[20:09] * 01@Angela crosses her arms, looking over at Erevis.
06[20:09] * 01@Xanatos lowers his hand, waiting.
[20:09] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao stops near the others gathering. Eve moves along, checking her datapad, stopping near Alexander herself. Fiore comes out of nowhere, a ninja, to follow Drasek
[20:09] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> When did this being appear - and what happened?
01[20:10] <01@Angela> "...Being?"
06[20:10] * 01@Xanatos waits for Isis to reply, rubbing his shoulder slightly, he already knows bits and pieces.
[20:11] <01@DeathStar> 6* Isis peers at Erevis, then away. "About a year ago. It came out of nowhere/"
06[20:11] * 01@Angela looks over at Isis with interest now.
[20:11] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek arches a brow, then pauses and glances over his shoulder.
[20:12] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis thinks on that. Isis goes on. <Isis> It arrived on this very ship that it stole from the Cartel - they had taken it decades earlier to experiment with it to adapt it's technology. We could not stop it."
[20:12] <01@DeathStar> <Alexander> Too bad the Cartel never did learn not to steal what it couldn't use
01[20:13] <01@Angela> "Would that be why we saw two ships out there?"
[20:13] <01@DeathStar> 6* Isis tilts her head
[20:13] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> I guess so
[20:14] <01@Xanatos> It can travel through time?
[20:14] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> I do not know
03[20:14] * X1 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) has joined #erevis
01[20:14] <01@Angela> "Might have adapted the time machine we have."
[20:15] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> It began to attack people we cared about so the survivors would be wracked with hate, or fear...6* She goes softer. "A lot of people died or were taken over by it. And the numbers just grew."
06[20:15] * 01@Angela frowns a little. "Sounds creepily familiar."
[20:16] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Sounds like the bloody Dark Ones on Hyper.
[20:16] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Just like that thing that destroyed Jennifer's homeworld. *walks up*
01[20:16] <01@Angela> "Couldn't have worded it better myself Drasek."
[20:16] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> Momma Erevis did thing it was a legacy of both of them.
[20:16] <01@DeathStar> *think
06[20:16] * 01@Angela looks over at Cassandra. "Say what?"
[20:16] <01@DeathStar> <Alexander> Actually, this sounds a bit different, General.
[20:17] <01@Xanatos> The stuff on Jen's world assimilated, absorbed. This is different.
[20:17] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> ...
[20:17] <01@DeathStar> <Alexander> So if we think happy thoughts, we'll be fine
06[20:17] * 01@Angela looks around and just sighs.
[20:18] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Sounds like the lot of us are right screwed.
[20:18] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Ok, so not exactly like...but stilll, similar enough MO.
[20:18] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head a bit. Darien speaks up. <Darien> Why did that thing take me anyway?
01[20:18] <01@Angela> "Word smith Drasek."
[20:18] <01@Xanatos> Most likely to infect you and send you against us.
[20:19] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> From what I read, the brat led it to me
01[20:19] <01@Angela> "I don't know if it helps, seeing it was a deception, but Athena claimed it was to get me off of Earth."
[20:19] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis eyes Darien out of the corner of her eyes
06[20:19] * 01@Xanatos eyes Darien. 1I'm sure she knew exactly where you were.
[20:19] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> What a coincidence if she didn't.
[20:20] <01@Xanatos> Maybe she thought you could help, but you were a bit underhanded at the time.
[20:20] <01@DeathStar> 6* Isis runs her fingers along, trying to go unnoticed, looking wary
[20:20] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Xanatos, then goes for his throat, rearing back his left arm
[20:20] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> I'll show you underhanded.
01[20:21] <01@Angela> "Mmm... just pointing out, Isis would have a chance of knowing. I'm sure there must be a reason, but she is from the future---" *she turns to stare at Darien's actions*
06[20:21] * 01@Xanatos stares at Darien, not moving to defend himself, while Drasek moves forward to try and stop Darien.
03[20:21] * Chad`Winters (blah@75.146.174.17) has joined #erevis
[20:21] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Easy mate, Easy.
[20:21] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Drasek, then calms, almost eerily.
[20:21] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien turns to face another direction. Isis looks like she's trying hard to block out emotions
[20:22] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Maybe we should all take a timeout.
[20:22] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She nods once to Drasek
06[20:22] * 01@Xanatos puts his hand to his throat slightly.
06[20:22] * 01@Angela looks back at Isis now. "Yeah... chill pill time."
[20:22] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek steps back, frowning.
[20:23] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> Momma Erevis said the Legacy was one of the few people who could not touch Mr. Starr. I knew he was in a hospital at this time period, so I ran to him thinking maybe he could help
[20:23] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> S-Sorry.
02[20:23] * Xanatos (jbobo@h236.73.19.98.dynamic.ip.windstream.net) Quit (Excess Flood)
03[20:23] * Xanatos (jbobo@h236.73.19.98.dynamic.ip.windstream.net) has joined #erevis
03[20:23] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Xanatos
06[20:23] * 01@Angela considers Isis carefully. "Couldn't... touch Darien?"
[20:23] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> Legacy cannot infect you if you do not have hate or fear in your heart.
[20:23] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> Few people actually do not have either
[20:24] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> When I saw it coming after me, I thought maybe he could stop it.
01[20:24] <01@Angela> "Different times kiddo, you can't count on how people are in the future being how they are now."
06[20:24] * 01@Myria rocks on her heels.
[20:24] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> I see.
[20:24] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves to get to her feet slowly.
[20:25] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC steps over to the others, her rifle together. Loki lazily moves over.
06[20:25] * 01Chad`Winters nudges Aya awake.
06[20:25] * 01@Xanatos crosses his arms now. 1Intersting. 6He mumbles slightly, glancing upward.
[20:25] <01@DeathStar> 6* Aya sits up after a moment
[20:25] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> ... 6* She just hangs her head
[20:25] <01Chad`Winters> Looks like Erevis is ready to head inside.
[20:26] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> When one changes time, they inadvertantly do harm as well as good.
[20:26] <01@DeathStar> <Aya> ... Okay. 6* She rubs at her face, waking up
01[20:26] <01@Angela> "Well, we've changed time, so counting on anything as it was in the future now is beyond logic."
[20:26] <01@Xanatos> You panicked. It's understandable, but unfortunate as to how things turned out.
[20:26] <01@DeathStar> <Alexander> Out of curiousity, for such a meek child, you were in their grasp for weeks, and you weren't infected.
[20:27] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Bloke has a point.
01[20:27] <01@Angela> "Bargaining chip, maybe?"
[20:27] <01@DeathStar> 6* Isis glances up, then down. "Mom taught me how to cut off certain emotions, and focus on others. I just focused on hope - since I knew you would all make it. Hope that I can save everyone."
06[20:27] * 01Chad`Winters gets up after a bit and holds his hand down to his daughter to help her up
01[20:27] <01@Angela> "...Or that."
[20:27] <01@DeathStar> 6* Aya stands up
[20:28] <01@DeathStar> <Alexander> Well, something tells me hope will be something we'll be short changed on in the days to come
[20:28] <01@Xanatos> There's always hope, Alexander.
01[20:28] <01@Angela> "Well... it's a start. We've got the very weapon they used against us."
[20:28] <01Chad`Winters> <Loki> Oh come now Cran, there's that whole hope blooms eternal or something. 6He waves his hands dismissiely
[20:28] <01@DeathStar> 6* Alexander eyes Xan, then Erevis, then Xan. "Touche."
[20:29] <01@DeathStar> 6* Alexander peers at Loki once. Billy hops down from the shadows, in her six year old form
[20:29] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> It's a bit bloody depressing to know that I wasn't enough to beat back the Legacy nonsense.
[20:30] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Who all is going to take back the ship? We can discuss mor eabout the future later.
06[20:30] * 01Chad`Winters makes his way over to the others finally, his arms crossed.
[20:30] <01@DeathStar> 6* Aya follows, watching. Eve peers up from her datapad.
01[20:30] <01@Angela> "I'm in."
[20:30] <01@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Sadly, my power is still low.
[20:30] <01Chad`Winters> <SPoC> I will go.
[20:31] <01Chad`Winters> 6Loki eyes his nails.
[20:31] <01@Xanatos> Of course I'm going.
[20:31] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> I'll be going. <Paladin> Me too. <Darien> We know my stance
[20:31] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> You've know I've got your back Revi.
[20:31] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> You have my firepower.
[20:31] <01@DeathStar> 6* Fiore peers at Drasek, hands together. Erevis nods once.
[20:31] <01@DeathStar> 6* Billy tosses Xanatos a dark crystal
06[20:31] * 01Chad`Winters just checks over his guns in response.
06[20:32] * 01@Xanatos catches it oddly and pauses. 1What's this, Billy?
[20:32] <01@DeathStar> <Billy> Just set it down somewhere to activate it once you need to come to break, or change out people. Then I can send you back to the place you set it
[20:32] <01@DeathStar> 6* Billy sits, having her own version of it
06[20:33] * 01@Xanatos eyes it. 1Huh. NIce.
[20:33] <01@Myria> That sounds like a video game!
[20:33] <01@DeathStar> 6* Some of Iceheart's crew people carry out a crate
06[20:33] * 01@Angela looks over at it and grins to herself about something.
[20:33] <01@DeathStar> <Billy> I like video games.
[20:33] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek peers and points. 1What's in the box?
01[20:33] <01@Angela> "A save point, cool."
[20:33] <01@DeathStar> 6* Eve nods to Alexander, who moves to it. "Those gifts."
[20:34] <01@DeathStar> <Billy> I can also set it up not to warp certain people back if you want to leave them to die alone
[20:34] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Gifts? You shouldn't have.
[20:34] <01@DeathStar> 6* Alexander opens it and inside are tactical suits, and the Rune Blade.
06[20:34] * 01@Angela looks over to Alexander.
[20:34] <01@Xanatos> I'll keep that in mind.
[20:35] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC looks over at the tact suits, tilting her head slightly.
[20:35] <01@DeathStar> 6* Alexander pulls out the sword, then tosses it toward Erevis, who catches it
[20:35] <01@DeathStar> <Alexander> Ariel left this behind, so I figured you'd want it
[20:36] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> ... You ransacked my house?
06[20:36] * 01@Angela frowns a bit at that.
[20:36] <01@DeathStar> <Alexander> You were MIA.
06[20:36] * 01@Xanatos pockets the crystal as he watches Darien, seeing just how much is needed to set him off.
[20:36] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Hrrrn. 6* He shrugs, peering away
[20:36] <01Chad`Winters> <Loki> I do hope those suits come in my cut.
[20:36] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Not sure if there's a suit for little weakling, mate.
[20:37] <01@DeathStar> <Alexander> They'll adjust to fit your size, then taek whatever form you want. Grab them if you want them, leave them if you don't.
[20:37] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Alright, let's suit up!
[20:37] <01Chad`Winters> <Loki> Well if they can fit a bullshit like you, I'm sure I'll fit in one.
06[20:37] * 01@Xanatos walks over to take one, needing all the help he can get.
06[20:37] * 01@Angela looks under her shirt a moment, then moves over to take one.
[20:37] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> A bullshit eh? 'Course.
[20:37] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *goes to take one because one can never have too much armor or firepower*
06[20:37] * 01Chad`Winters eyes the tact suit, frowning slightly.
[20:37] <01@Myria> Me too! Me too! *goes to claim one for herself*
[20:38] <01@Xanatos> These are Cheryl's design aren't they?
[20:38] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves over and takes one. She bows to Cran. 1"Thank you."
[20:38] <01@DeathStar> <Alexander> Yes.
06[20:38] * 01@Xanatos smiles at that, glancing towards Chad a bit.
06[20:38] * 01@Angela gets a fond little smile on her face before slipping off a moment to change into it.
[20:38] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao eyes them, then doesn't take any. Paladin seems to not either, but probably already had one on. Erevis takes one
[20:39] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves of to change. Darien doesn't grab one either
06[20:39] * 01Chad`Winters glances at his daughter then moves over to grab one.
[20:39] <01@DeathStar> 6* Aya looks amused
06[20:39] * 01@Xanatos pats Chad's shoulder and moves off to change.
[20:39] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek shrugs. 1Might help me save the Holy Rune's energy. 6He takes one and steps off to change.
[20:39] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *goes off to change away from prying eyes as does Myria.
[20:39] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves off from the others a small bit and starts to change into it, not being bothered by everyone watching
[20:40] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis changes clothing, slipping into her tactical suit
[20:40] <01@DeathStar> 6* Billy sends cameras after Myria
06[20:40] * 01Chad`Winters moves off somewhere to change out of his suit
[20:40] <01@DeathStar> 6* A camera follows Chad, too.
06[20:40] * 01@Angela changes into the tactical suit before fitting on her gear and coat once more, coming out with the suit set to look like jeans and a tank top under the long white coat.
[20:41] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps out after a bit, wearing it like it was designed to appear, X-men movie black. Her hair is down again.
06[20:42] * 01@Xanatos and Drasek both step back into view with both of them wearing it like it was designed at first.
06[20:42] * 01Chad`Winters steps out himself, wearing it like a tact suit. His old one folded under his arm. He moves over to Aya and hands it to her.
[20:42] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC seals hers up and moves over to the others.
[20:42] <01@DeathStar> 6* Aya takes it. "Becareful."
06[20:42] * 01@Angela adjusts the old coat and looks over as the others come back.
06[20:42] * 01@Xanatos tilts his head and the suit shifts into a suit with a cape, he pauses and chuckles. 1This is interesting.
[20:42] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head at Xanatos.
[20:42] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> You are now Dias?
[20:43] <01Chad`Winters> I will. 6He gives her a hug.
01[20:43] <01@Angela> "Digging the superhero look Xanny."
[20:43] <01@Xanatos> I break through walls and stuff. 6He says with a smile, the suit adjusting to his bomber jacker getup.
[20:43] <01@DeathStar> 6* Aya hugs him back. Eve eyes Xanatos, and Alexander shakes his head
[20:43] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien moves to the sealed doors, eyeing a control panel
06[20:44] * 01Chad`Winters rubs the back of his neck and then unholsters Ebony.
[20:44] <01Chad`Winters> 6Loki slides over to the suits, his hand reaching down for one
[20:44] <01@DeathStar> 6* PAladin walks along, checking his gun. Erevis sheathes the Rune Blade along her back for now, following to the door; she still looks tired, and Ao stays near her
[20:44] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek's suits adjusts to a white t-shirt and jeans and he moves forward.
06[20:44] * 01@Angela pulls out her Samaritan and loads four colored shells into it, locking it back and walking along.
06[20:44] * 01@Xanatos walks along, checking his pistols.
[20:45] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves over to the others.
[20:45] <01@DeathStar> <Isis> Be safe...please. 6* She notes, looking too wiped to go
06[20:45] * 01Chad`Winters moves over towards the doors
[20:45] <01@Xanatos> Just get some rest. 6He says over his shoulder.
[20:45] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien hits the panel, but nothing happens
[20:46] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Should we try it my way, mate?
[20:46] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> And leave a gaping hole where monsters can eat the children?
[20:47] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> I see your point.
[20:47] <01Chad`Winters> Erevis should be able to open.
[20:47] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis walks along it, touching her hand to the panel, but nothing happens. She closes her eyes, channeling her energy. The panel lights up
[20:48] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Ah right. 6He makes a face at forgetting what kind of ship they're on.
06[20:48] * 01@Angela watches carefully. "Alright, so if we need to open a door, one of our Hyperspace crew can do it? Or is it only Erevis for some reason?"
[20:48] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis touches it and the doors open to a dark hallway. Lights flicker on, but are so dim they're barely useful
[20:48] <01Chad`Winters> The ships most likely running on minimal power. 6He peers down the hallway.
[20:49] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin scans it, his hand on his gun
[20:49] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC flicks the light on her rifle on.
[20:49] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> I hate poor lighting
[20:49] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Might be damaged too. You know, generators down and all that. 6He steps forward, peering around.
[20:49] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Which way?
01[20:49] <01@Angela> "Well, they got it to full power somehow, so can we."
[20:49] <01@Xanatos> Well I agree with you on that. 6He tells Darien, stepping forward, turning on his night vision.
[20:49] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> I saw straight ahead, as that's the only way.
[20:49] <01@DeathStar> *Say
[20:50] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves in after Xanatos with Ao. Paladin steps in, sweeping the hallway like a paranoid black man in a horror movie. Darien walks along
[20:50] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves in herself, her gun trained ahead as she walks along.
06[20:50] * 01@Angela pulls on her HMD, hitting a button on the side to switch it's spectrum and smiles a bit. She moves after the Hyperspace ladies.
[20:50] <01@DeathStar> 6* Eve walks over to the door control, waiting for them to all enter, then she'd flick it to shut the doors
06[20:51] * 01Chad`Winters walks along after the others
[20:51] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *starts moving forward*
06[20:51] * 01@Myria moves along down the hallway.
[20:52] <01@DeathStar> 6* The hallway seems to go on for some ways, the lights flickering on and off.
06[20:52] * 01@Xanatos pulls up a pistol as he moves forward. Drasek pulls out his as well, though he can't see without other's help.
[20:52] <01Chad`Winters> As long as we stick together, we'll minimize taxing the ships remaining power.
06[20:52] * 01@Angela keeps her Samaritan ready, tapping a key on her right bracer.
[20:52] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> We don't even know where we need to go once we get to a branching point
[20:52] <01@Xanatos> I just hope whatever is out there has the same problem with seeing that we do.
06[20:53] * 01Chad`Winters glances behind them to see if they lights turn off after a certain distance
[20:53] <01@DeathStar> 6* They do
[20:53] <01@DeathStar> 6* After a bit, they reach a branching point - left and right
[20:53] <01Chad`Winters> Hmmm. 6He looks ahead at the branching points. 1"It's shutting the lights off as we move on."
[20:53] <01@Xanatos> There must be proximity sensors of some type.
[20:53] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> T-That's normal, right? 6* She looks worried.
01[20:54] <01@Angela> "Probably a power consumption routine."
[20:54] <01Chad`Winters> Probably a subroutine.
06[20:54] * 01@Angela looks at Chad a moment and then looks away.
[20:54] <01@Xanatos> It's probably normal for a ship like this. But it's not something we ever implement.
[20:54] <01@DeathStar> 6* There's some noise down to the right . Erevis tilts her head
[20:54] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> So luv. Do we go torwards the creepy crawlies or away from?
[20:55] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> I--do not know. I can sense them everywhere.
[20:55] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Great...
01[20:55] <01@Angela> "Fun."
[20:55] <01Chad`Winters> We'll have to deal with them eventually
[20:55] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin scans down the right branch with his gun. For some reason he can never hold his gun and flashlight at once
[20:55] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Unless there is some sor tof internal defense system.
[20:56] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> I do not think whatever I feel is any internal system
[20:56] <01@Xanatos> If there is one, it's not working right now, so we would have to figure out the power issue first.
[20:56] <01Chad`Winters> If there is, there isn't enough power in the ship to deal with it.
[20:56] <01@DeathStar> <Paladin> Which means control room or engine room?
[20:57] <01Chad`Winters> From the control room we could in theory lock down hallways leading from the hanger to it.
[20:57] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Problem is we don't know where either is
[20:57] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> My thought is that if there is such a system, if we could take control of the ship, we could use the defenses against any enemies.
[20:57] <01@Xanatos> Yeah. We need to find a map.
[20:57] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Ah. That wuld be useful.
01[20:57] <01@Angela> "This ship has enough power to keep a ship this size in hyperspace, I'm guessing things are just turned off right now."
[20:57] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> IF it can keep us in hyperspace, why did it drop out?
[20:58] <01@Myria> Miss Erevis, can you form any sort of connection with the ship at this stage?
01[20:58] <01@Angela> "True... I'm assuming too much."
[20:58] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> No. I cannot.
06[20:58] * 01@Xanatos shakes his head. 1Let's move away from the sounds for now, we might find a map in the process.
01[20:58] <01@Angela> "Could have brought us out because it lost power."
06[20:58] * 01@Angela frowns a little now.
[20:58] <01Chad`Winters> I think we should take the control room first.
[20:58] <01@DeathStar> <Paladin> Left it is
[20:59] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin turns and moves left now
01[20:59] <01@Angela> "I'm gonna agree with Chad on this. It'd give us more insight into the ship, where the core might now."
06[20:59] * 01Chad`Winters lets the black man lead.
06[20:59] * 01@Xanatos moves after Paladin, pistol raised still.
06[20:59] * 01@Angela heads after the black man.
[20:59] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *proceeds forward.
[20:59] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC glances down the right hallway then starts moving down the left
06[20:59] * 01@Myria scans the area with her datapad as she moves along.
[20:59] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek sicks towards the rear, moving along.
[20:59] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao walks along, nervously. Erevis moves after them, with Darien in the back of the group
[21:00] <01@DeathStar> 6* Myria's scans are coming up with nothing at all now
[21:00] <01@Myria> Nothing on my scans right now.
[21:01] <01@Xanatos> There probably won't be, unless you can set it up to detect heat signatures.
[21:01] <01@DeathStar> 6* The lights flicker then go off.
01[21:02] <01@Angela> "Joy."
06[21:02] * 01@Xanatos pauses peering around quickly, using his eye.
[21:02] <01@Myria> A heat signature wouldn't have helped me detect that.
06[21:02] * 01Chad`Winters stops, his hand sliding along his belt and a second later a green glow begins to emit from his hand
[21:02] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek frowns, standing there in the dark with no way to see.
[21:02] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin makes a face.
06[21:02] * 01@Angela looks around, letting her HMD do the seeing for her.
[21:03] <01@Xanatos> Well. We could continue in the dark, or hope to whatever god that the lights come back on.
01[21:03] <01@Angela> "Don't we have a few with us?"
04[21:03] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC looks down at her gun then at Xan and Angela
[21:04] <01@Xanatos> I meant the lights above us.
01[21:05] <01@Angela> "Ah, the sacred Light Bulb Gods."
[21:05] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> I wonder if these suits could glow or something, eh? That'd be bloody spiffy.
[21:05] <01@Myria> Well, its more like a solid state diode than a light bulb, actually.
01[21:06] <01@Angela> "No clue, my HMD does me fine."
06[21:06] * 01@Angela eyes Myria, the blasphemer.
06[21:06] * 01Chad`Winters tosses the small light stick to Drasek
[21:07] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek catches it and pauses. 1How's it work?
[21:07] <01Chad`Winters> It already is working, or can't you see green?
[21:07] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao looks around, lenaing into Xanatos
[21:07] <01@DeathStar> 6* There's noises from behind them. Darien turns around
[21:08] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *turns, eyes switched to night vision*
06[21:08] * 01@Angela turns in Darien's direction, looking back.
06[21:08] * 01Chad`Winters attaches a small flashlight to Ebony and he clicks it on.
[21:08] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> We should perhaps continue
[21:08] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC turns around, aiming the rifle down that way
[21:08] <01@DeathStar> 6* Nothing is back there that they can see.
01[21:08] <01@Angela> "Let's do that."
[21:09] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> We're in a bad situation.
[21:09] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin moves along again
[21:09] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> You just now realized that?
06[21:09] * 01@Angela moves on.
06[21:09] * 01@Xanatos lets out a breath and moves forward again. 1We should be okay. There's alot of us.
[21:10] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> What if there is...more of them?
[21:10] <01Chad`Winters> You scared Durran?
[21:10] <01@Xanatos> Nah. No. Not at all.
[21:10] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek moves along now, playing with the glow stick.
01[21:10] <01@Angela> "There's always going to be more of them. Best not to try and meet them all."
[21:11] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin stops, shining a light when they come to a branch that goes left, and straight ahead still. However, to the left, are bodies - covered in blood and wearing Cartel uniforms
[21:11] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis comes to a stop, peering at the bodies. The lights flicker back on.
06[21:11] * 01@Angela frowns a bit.
06[21:11] * 01Chad`Winters eyes the bodies. 1"We should get a hold of Loki or Iceheart and see if there missing any of their crew
[21:12] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> There si no way they could have gotten here ahead of us.
[21:12] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> No way they got out of the hanger without a battery.
06[21:12] * 01@Xanatos shakes his head. 1These bodies aren't exactly old either.
[21:12] <01Chad`Winters> That's what I figured.
[21:12] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> What about those other blokes that were trying to get to it?
[21:12] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Some of Vivi's men?
01[21:12] <01@Angela> "Somehow, going straight appears to be the right one."
06[21:12] * 01Chad`Winters frowns slightly. 1"That's about right.
[21:12] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> His ship did fall toward this one after being damaged.
[21:13] <01Chad`Winters> They most likely beamed aboard.
[21:13] <01@DeathStar> <Paladin> Or crashed like we did
[21:13] <01Chad`Winters> Xan, what is the temperature of the bodies?
06[21:13] * 01@Xanatos checks to see.
[21:13] <01@DeathStar> 6* It's been a few hours since there was life in them
[21:14] <01@Xanatos> I'd say they got here about the same time we did.
06[21:14] * 01Chad`Winters kneels beside the a body, checking it to see how it died
[21:14] <01@DeathStar> 6* It seems it was punctured by something and shredded inside
06[21:15] * 01Chad`Winters rubs his face. 1"Something punctured it...and from what I can see, the insides are shredded.
[21:15] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao makes a face.
[21:15] <01@DeathStar> <Paladin> So we're not alone on here with friendly aliens
[21:15] <01@Xanatos> That's always good news. 6He notes blandly
[21:15] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She closes her eyes, saying a prayer for the dead men
01[21:16] <01@Angela> "Urgh..."
06[21:16] * 01Chad`Winters stands up now. 1"Whatever got them, took them by surprise."
[21:17] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien peers about. "Then lets keep going before we join them."
01[21:17] <01@Angela> "Control room. Get."
04[21:17] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> I think Angela is too scared to form proper sentences.
01[21:17] <01@Angela> "Just grossed out."
[21:17] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> We should keep moving then.
[21:17] <01Chad`Winters> Most likely brain damage.
06[21:17] * 01@Angela rubs her face.
06[21:18] * 01@Myria blinks and then scans the bodies.
[21:18] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin moves forward again. Erevis finishes her prayer, then moves to follow. Ao sticks with Xanatos now
01[21:18] <01@Angela> "Brains fine, thanks."
[21:18] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> I'd love a bloody map. Well. Not literally...
[21:18] <01@DeathStar> 6* There's an unknown substance inside them
06[21:18] * 01@Angela moves on.
06[21:18] * 01@Xanatos pats a hand on Ao's shoulder and nods slightly, then moves after them.
06[21:18] * 01Chad`Winters moves along now.
[21:18] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC takes the rear.
[21:18] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek moves along, letting out a sigh.
[21:19] <01@Myria> I detected some un known substance in the bodies. *moves on after them*
[21:19] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin pauses ,glancing back
[21:19] <01@DeathStar> <Paladin> What? 6* Erevis tilts her head
[21:19] <01@Myria> An unknown substance.
01[21:20] <01@Angela> "Study later... seriously, way later."
[21:20] <01Chad`Winters> I'd rather know now myself.
04[21:20] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Angela puts off today what she can die by tomorrow
[21:20] <01@Myria> It could be a toxin or a legacy implantation.
[21:20] <01Chad`Winters> Get a sample of it Myria and try to figure it out while we move.
[21:20] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> The men are dead. Isis indicated they needed to be alive to be taken over
02[21:20] * X1 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
06[21:20] * 01@Xanatos arches a brow. 1Shouldn't we destroy the bodies?
06[21:21] * 01@Angela frowns a bit, looking at Darien, before turning away and letting the others do things.
[21:21] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Be easier now
[21:21] <01@Myria> Well, this may be something different. But I'll get the sample and run the analysis as we move.
[21:21] <01@DeathStar> <Paladin> We'll wait for you to do so
06[21:21] * 01@Myria moves back to extract a sample of the substance.
[21:21] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves back with her to guard her.
[21:22] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek makes a face. 1...creepy place.
[21:22] <01@DeathStar> 6* as Myria goes back, there's only blood - no bodies
[21:22] <01@Myria> ...oh...dear...
[21:22] <01@Myria> ...umm...they moved...
[21:22] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC peers at Myria. 1"What is wrong?"
[21:22] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien turns to eye her. "Define moved."
01[21:22] <01@Angela> "Or something moved them. They were dead weren't they?"
[21:22] <01@Myria> Dias once fixated on something called zombies...that type of moved.
[21:22] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Z-Zombies?
06[21:23] * 01@Angela rolls her eyes.
06[21:23] * 01@Myria scans the area again.
[21:23] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC raises her rifle now
06[21:23] * 01@Xanatos shakes his head. 1Zombies aren't real. At least not anymore.
[21:23] <01@DeathStar> 6* The scans turn up nothing
01[21:23] <01@Angela> "And people look at me for jumping to conclusions."
[21:23] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> ...
06[21:23] * 01Chad`Winters frowns now.
01[21:23] <01@Angela> "Somethings stalking us, dead bodies vanish, logic says it found dinner. Hence why I say study later."
[21:23] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> If they wanted lunch, they'd have eaten it hours ago
[21:24] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien looks annoyed
[21:24] <01Chad`Winters> We should get moving while we can.
01[21:24] <01@Angela> "Some predators ripen a body before eating it."
[21:24] <01Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Let us get back to the others, Myria.
[21:24] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Of course, we'll go with your theory, because you're never wrong.
[21:24] <01@Myria> They could have been eaten, but whatever it was was avery tidy eatter. However, I believe the substance that I detected reanimated the bodies.
[21:24] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head. "A parasite?"
01[21:24] <01@Angela> "Right, so clearly zombies then."
[21:25] <01@Myria> Possibly. *moving back toward the group*
06[21:25] * 01@Xanatos puts a hand to his face.
[21:25] <01Chad`Winters> Possible.
04[21:25] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien looks ready to smash Angela's face into a wall
[21:25] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC walks backwards after Myria, keeping her gun trained down the hallway
[21:25] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek rubs his face slightly. 1This is pretty bloody annoying. Should've just set up camp in the hangar for good.
06[21:25] * 01@Angela looks away from him and down, then timidly moves away from him a bit.
[21:25] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> We could use the crystal to let you go back - it would be safer.
[21:26] <01@Myria> Regardless, we need to be careful because something nasty is in here.
[21:26] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Safer? I'm the strongest fighter you got, luv.
[21:26] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Are not
[21:27] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek eyes Ao. 1Don't be a jerk, tiny.
[21:27] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods once, then moves to head down the hallway again. Paladin moves along again
[21:27] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Just saying, I could beat you
[21:28] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Yeah? Don't count on it, luv.
[21:28] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien puts his hands in his pockets again, keeping an eye behind them.
06[21:28] * 01@Xanatos moves forward, keeping Paladin covered.
[21:28] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Hey, cool it, you two.
[21:28] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> I will prove it right no--- <Erevis> Not now, Ao.
[21:28] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoc walks along in the back
[21:28] <01@DeathStar> 6* There's a noise above them, like something moving against the metal. Erevis peers up
[21:28] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek shrugs slightly. 1Maybe some other time, eh?
06[21:29] * 01Chad`Winters taps his ear and peers up.
06[21:29] * 01@Angela remains quiet now, moving along without really looking at anything but what's in front of her.
[21:29] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *looks up, gun aimed at the ceiling*
06[21:29] * 01@Xanatos aims towards the sound, trying to get something in his sights.
[21:29] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao peers up, and Paladin aims upward while looking ahead.
[21:29] <01@DeathStar> 6* There appears to be nothing there, it could be in the space above it
06[21:29] * 01Chad`Winters clicks his tongue. 1"Something's jamming my comm."
06[21:29] * 01@Angela slowly looks up.
[21:30] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> ...
[21:30] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC raises her rifle up towards the cieling.
[21:30] <01@DeathStar> 6* It goes quiet, and out of a small vent cover blood drips down to the floor
[21:30] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin points at it
06[21:30] * 01@Myria scans in the direction of the vent with her datapad.
[21:30] <01@DeathStar> 6* Nothing can be detected. Erevis frowns
06[21:31] * 01@Angela watches quietly, gun out.
06[21:31] * 01Chad`Winters aims his pistol towards the vent now.
[21:31] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> I sense thought without thought, mere instinct.
[21:31] <01@Xanatos> One of those creature zombie things.
[21:31] <01@Myria> I'm not picking up anything...
[21:31] <01@DeathStar> 6* Suddenly something busts through the vent and lands; a Cartel personnel rises, his body deforming into something like an exoskeleton. It charges at Paladin, blades coming out of the arms.
[21:31] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin curses, firing his gun at it, then throws himself to the left.
06[21:32] * 01@Xanatos shifts to the left and kneels, firing towards it.
06[21:32] * 01Chad`Winters fires a shot, arcing it around Paladin and for it's head
[21:32] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao screams once, then pauses
06[21:32] * 01@Xanatos pauses as to not shoot Fire.
[21:32] <01@Xanatos> NRP: Paladin.
[21:32] <01@Myria> I told you so!
[21:32] <01@DeathStar> 6* The creature is hit by the shots, but doesn't slow
01[21:32] <01@Angela> "...Kay, at least we can depend on me being wrong." *she tries to get a shot, but stops when she sees she can't*
[21:32] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC aims her rifle at it, waiting for a clear shot
06[21:33] * 01@Xanatos pulls out a saber and activates it, throwing it out to try and sever a leg.
[21:33] <01@DeathStar> 6* The creature topples over as it's leg is taken out
06[21:33] * 01Chad`Winters fires an overcharged shot for the top of it's skull as it falls
[21:33] <01@DeathStar> 6* It rises, a new leg beginning to grow.
[21:33] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Oh that's ruddy awful.
[21:33] <01@DeathStar> 6* But then is hit in the head and falls onto it's back. Erevis remains tensed
[21:34] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> ... 6* He spins to eye the way they came for more
06[21:34] * 01@Angela rotates her Samaritan's cartridge and keeps her gun aimed at it. "Head shot does it then...?"
[21:34] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *fires into the downed creature.
[21:34] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC turns around with Darien, training her rifle down that way
[21:34] <01@Xanatos> Give it a second. 6He continues aiming at it.
[21:34] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> And don't go near it.
[21:34] <01Chad`Winters> I doubt it. 6He fires a second overcharged shot for it's head
01[21:34] <01@Angela> "Got a red shell aimed."
[21:34] <01@DeathStar> 6* The creature is shot again by Cassandra and Chad, then crumbles to dust
06[21:35] * 01Chad`Winters clicks his tongue
[21:35] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis frowns.
[21:35] <01@DeathStar> <Paladin> I wonder how many people Vivi had on his ship
[21:35] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Now its dead.
06[21:35] * 01@Myria goes to carefully collect a sample for analysis.
[21:35] <01@Xanatos> I hope not that many. This is bad. 6He moves to retrieve his saber.
[21:36] <01Chad`Winters> Iceheart had 10, figure 20-30?
[21:37] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao points. Though the hallway continues, there's a door to the right
[21:37] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Door.
01[21:37] <01@Angela> "We should move. Standing here thinking about it isn't going to help."
06[21:37] * 01@Xanatos nods and moves towards it, saber still activated.
[21:37] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien keeps looking the way they came, while Paladin covers the front. <Paladin> Always goes for the black man
06[21:37] * 01@Myria sees if she can get any data from the dust sample.
[21:37] <01@DeathStar> 6* There appears to be nothing left now
[21:38] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek peers over his shoulder, then moves forward.
[21:38] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps to the door; a control panel is by it
[21:38] <01@Myria> All gone...no trace. *continues after the others*
[21:38] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> I've got this one Revi. 6He moves to place his hand on it.
[21:38] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods once.
06[21:38] * 01Chad`Winters unhooks the hilt from his belt and he moves up to the door. He keeps his gun trained on it
[21:39] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek puts some hyperspace into it.
[21:39] <01@DeathStar> 6* Once Drasek feeds energy into the panel, it would light up
[21:40] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek pauses and then pushes a button to open the door.
[21:40] <01@DeathStar> 6* It opens, revealing a small square area with buttons on one side
[21:40] <01Chad`Winters> Looks clear.
06[21:40] * 01@Xanatos moves in, sweeping around as he does.
[21:40] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Joy.
06[21:41] * 01@Angela moves in slowly, looking aroud.
[21:41] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps in, eyeing the buttons with foreign symbols - there's tons of buttons, it would seem. Paladin remains covering one part of the hallway, as does Darien
[21:41] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao moves in, eyeing it. "Numbers."
[21:41] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> ...is this...an elevator?
[21:41] <01@Xanatos> You really think this is an elevator?
[21:41] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC remains with the two, covering the hallway with them
[21:41] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Yes and no. It's zones and numbers matching it. Like, um, 1A-1E, then 2A-2I
[21:41] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> I think it's a teleporter.
[21:42] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek steps in peering around. 1Bloody hell.
06[21:42] * 01Chad`Winters steps upto where the buttons are, eyeing it. He pulls his datapad out and begins to record them all
06[21:42] * 01@Angela looks about. "Makes sense on a ship this huge."
[21:42] <01Chad`Winters> You'll have to teach me how to read these symbols when we get the chance.
[21:42] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Judging by the number, it is huge.
[21:42] <01@Xanatos> It took me forever to learn Tsiv. I can imagine how long this will take.
[21:43] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> I think it's dead, though.
01[21:43] <01@Angela> "Now if we could just figure out which is command... huh... and how to power it."
[21:43] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Bloody hell. We spent all that time going down the wrong hallway.
[21:43] <01@Myria> Hmmmmm...let's see if I cna decode it. *eyes some of the symbols*
[21:43] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> The "1" buttons are the control room
[21:43] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> I think it's divided by priority.
06[21:44] * 01Chad`Winters peers at Ao.
01[21:44] <01@Angela> "Excellent. Heirarchal numbering system."
[21:44] <01@Xanatos> With the lower areas being residential type rooms?
[21:44] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> We don't do floors like you all do, we do zones. Zone 1 should be the control room
[21:44] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Probably.
[21:44] <01Chad`Winters> How sure are you?
[21:44] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Well, I'm going off what I was taught by, um, the other Erevis
[21:44] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis muses silently now
[21:44] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> We may be protocols, but there's no point in teaching us improper history.
[21:44] <01Chad`Winters> So 80% sure?
[21:45] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Drasek is right, I'd say 90%
01[21:45] <01@Angela> "Seems worth taking."
[21:45] <01Chad`Winters> Good enough for me. 6He glances around for a control panel of sorts like the ones they used before
[21:45] <01@DeathStar> 6* There is a panel under the buttons, but not a control panel - just one that covers circuits
06[21:46] * 01Chad`Winters eyes the panel and he grabs the edges in an attempt to pull it off
[21:46] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers about, then reaches up to dust off a wall, uncovering what appears to be a map of the ship
[21:46] <01@DeathStar> 6* It doesn't budge.
06[21:46] * 01Chad`Winters slips a blade into his hand and he jams it in and tries to pry it off
[21:46] <01@DeathStar> 6* The blade chips
06[21:46] * 01@Xanatos pauses and tilts his head. 1Ease up Chad. Look. 6He points to the map.
[21:46] <01@Myria> Ah, you found a map!
01[21:47] <01@Angela> "Huh... could need a progenitor too."
[21:47] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek squints as he looks for the control room on the map.
[21:47] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis dusts her hands off. Symbols are all over the map, matching zones and numbers in the zones.
06[21:47] * 01Chad`Winters eyes the tip of his blade, then the panel. He glances at Xan then over at the map.
[21:47] <01@DeathStar> 6* The control room appears to be essentianly Zone 1-Area 1
[21:47] <01@DeathStar> 6* Since it matches with the spire
[21:47] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Ao was right. 6He points out the Control room for them, then looks for the engine room.
06[21:48] * 01Chad`Winters waves his datapad over the map, recording it
[21:48] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Any idea how to turn this thing on then?
[21:48] <01@DeathStar> 6* It would depend where the engine room is at - since it doesn't say "engine room".
[21:48] <01@DeathStar> 6* The lower parts of the ship are Zones 3 and 4, though
01[21:48] <01@Angela> "Chad found a panel, but it's in pretty good."
[21:48] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> I wonder if the engine room would be high priority.
[21:48] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> I would believe so
[21:48] <01Chad`Winters> Where are we right now, Erevis?
[21:49] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head. "I would not know."
[21:49] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek rubs his head again, thinking. He looks for larger areas that could be the hangar.
[21:49] <01Chad`Winters> This map doesn't give you a location?
[21:49] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> No
[21:49] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Just zones.
[21:50] <01@DeathStar> 6* There appears to be an entire zone that encompasses all around the ship, ranked Zone 5 - it would match up about where they landed
06[21:50] * 01Chad`Winters clicks his tongue and he looks over the map now.
[21:50] <01@DeathStar> 6* It appears to cover a few floors in a circular motion around the ship
06[21:50] * 01@Angela rubs her head and sighs a bit.
[21:50] <01@Myria> The ship has an atmosphere atmosphere, so zone 5 may be the exterior.
[21:50] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> These Zone here, 5, is where we landed. So we're somewhere around the outside of everything.
[21:50] <01@DeathStar> 6* Which, sadly, puts them far away from both Zone 1 and Zone 3/4
[21:51] <01Chad`Winters> Our best shot is to try and power this thing up temporarily.
[21:51] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> If we fail, it'll kill us. Teleporter and all
[21:51] <01@Xanatos> I'm all for walking. I'd rather not die in a stupid way like this.
06[21:51] * 01Chad`Winters rubs his face as he tries to pinpoint where they are considering all the turns and distances they walked
[21:51] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> There is likely ways to walk where we need to go. But a ship this size...
[21:52] <01@Xanatos> Yeah, it'll take a while.
01[21:52] <01@Angela> "We'll be fighting the zombie hordes for a while."
[21:52] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Joy.
06[21:53] * 01@Xanatos shakes his head slightly, sighing. 1At least Billy's crystal will help out.
[21:53] <01@Myria> The problem is we don't know what else is going on aboard this ship.
06[21:53] * 01Chad`Winters frowns. 1"We should get moving then."
[21:53] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin rests against a wall. There appears to be several points they could walk further in. Ao is trying to read it
[21:54] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> I think that's the symbol for stairs
01[21:54] <01@Angela> "So we walk or gamble on the teleporter... I think I'm done with gambling."
[21:54] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao points out at least 20 spots in their zone
[21:54] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Really? I thought it was food. My progen is rusty.
[21:54] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Hm. If it is food, then we have many places to eat.
06[21:54] * 01Chad`Winters looks at what Ao's pointing at, as he makes notes on his datapad
[21:54] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek chuckles, 1You're not kiddin, luv.
[21:54] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Well, we have a new problem
06[21:55] * 01@Xanatos peers up towards Darien.
[21:55] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> What is this control room doesn't have power to bring up any of the teleporters? That means we walked there for nothing
[21:55] <01@DeathStar> *if
01[21:55] <01@Angela> "We have the crystal."
[21:55] <01@Xanatos> Like I suggested before. We should probably move to the engine room, make sure we establish power first.
[21:55] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> I'm more concerned with how long we remain getting further from Earth.
01[21:56] <01@Angela> "...True..."
[21:56] <01Chad`Winters> If we can figure out how to operate the power source.
[21:56] <01@Myria> With power, we could probably use the teleporter system more reliably, assuming the teleporter network isn't locked down.
[21:56] <01@Xanatos> Well we have Progenitors here for that.
06[21:56] * 01@Angela looks down a bit, frowning. "If we can, then we can use the teleporters."
[21:56] <01Chad`Winters> Then we head to the engine room.
[21:57] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Too bad we don't know where it is.
[21:57] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> ... we might need the control room anyway to figure out how to work the engine room. Unless Ao and Drasek have a degree in engines
[21:57] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Are you just going to bitch for both sides?
[21:57] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> I just hit things, mate. Think that'll be enough?
[21:57] <01Chad`Winters> I'd rather not split up.
01[21:57] <01@Angela> "Why does this sound suspiciously like splitting up?"
06[21:57] * 01@Xanatos pauses and arches a brow, glancing to Ao.
[21:58] <01@Myria> Oh dear.
[21:58] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Hrrrn
[21:58] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis tilts her head, thinking
[21:58] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Well, "leader", where do we go?
[21:58] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes Erevis
01[21:58] <01@Angela> "It makes the most sense actually. Darien's right."
[21:58] <01@Xanatos> Chad already tried to used his comm and it was blocked. So splitting up would be moot. I guess the control room it is, no matter how annoying it would be when we got there without power.
01[21:58] <01@Angela> "Having both rooms would be the most prudent, there's too many what ifs otherwise."
[21:58] <01Chad`Winters> You'd think they'd have a back-up route incase something like this happened.
[21:59] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes, I think so, too. We may need to see if we can recover any data for repaiing the engine room, or turning it off so we stop moving through space
[21:59] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Stairs.
[21:59] <01Chad`Winters> So we should be able to get into the control room.
[21:59] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> I guess energy beings didn't have to worry about lesser beings being stuck
[21:59] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek tries to map out a path from where they are to the control room.
06[21:59] * 01@Angela smiles a bit, giggling softly.
[22:00] <01@DeathStar> 6* They'll have to move from this zone into another zone that seems to be the complex stair system, there also appears to be a tram system in place.
[22:00] <01@DeathStar> 6* From that zone, they'll have to cross through Zones 12-20, which might be residential floors, and work their way up to the surface.
[22:00] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Well if the trams work, we could use them. But it seems we'll have to go through this zone. 6He points out.
[22:01] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Tram would help us bypass the mess in the middle
[22:01] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the map, apparantly guessing they'll have to walk through the middle then up
01[22:01] <01@Angela> "If it's not, maybe I can get it going..."
[22:01] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Yea, that's alot of space there. Probably rooms for all the crew.
[22:01] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> It looks like about 30 zones just for crew.
[22:02] <01@Xanatos> Chad. Mark that area on your datapad.
06[22:02] * 01Chad`Winters grunts.
06[22:03] * 01@Angela crosses her arms, letting the others discuss as she studies them quietly.
[22:03] <01@Xanatos> Well. If no one objects, I think we should head on now, and pray the tram works.
[22:03] <01Chad`Winters> I just hope someone brought food.
[22:03] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis nods, stepping out of the room into the hallway. Paladin begins to move forward again
[22:03] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> I think we are the food
[22:03] <01@Xanatos> If things get bad, we can use Billy's crystal. 6He steps out and moves after Paladin.
06[22:03] * 01Chad`Winters eyes the map one last time and he moves out. 1"I'm sure I taste bitter."
[22:04] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> I'm sure you do too, mate. 6He steps out and follows the others.
[22:04] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis and Ao begin to follow Paladin again. There's a rustling noise from the way they came
06[22:04] * 01@Angela frowns, then smiles softly thinking of something, before moving with the others.
[22:04] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *points her gun down the hallway*
06[22:04] * 01@Xanatos raises his pistol, getting ready.
[22:04] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC takes up rear like usual
[22:04] <01@DeathStar> 6* Another Cartel monster rushes at Cassandra, faster than before, and more hardened. It swipes a blade at her gun
06[22:05] * 01Chad`Winters fires a shot fo the incoming blade, to knock it back
[22:05] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien lifts a gun up, trying to take aim. It's blade is knocked off
06[22:05] * 01@Xanatos tries to get a lock on the head and fires towards it.
06[22:05] * 01@Angela fires a normal shot for the creature whens he gets a clear shot.
[22:05] <01@DeathStar> 6* The creature sidesteps, running along the wall
[22:05] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> The hell
[22:05] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao lifts a hand, firing hyperspace at it, knocking it off the wall
[22:05] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Nice moves.
06[22:05] * 01Chad`Winters fires a second shot for it's head as it falls
06[22:05] * 01@Xanatos aims for it and fires again as it falls.
[22:05] <01@DeathStar> 6* It's head is knocked and it lands, then is shot again. It crumbles to dust
[22:06] <01Chad`Winters> It looked different compared to the last one.
[22:06] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Damn, that thing was fast!
[22:06] <01@DeathStar> 6* More noises can be heard. Paladin begins to head forward. The black man isn't sticking around.
06[22:06] * 01@Angela puts up her gun, sighing a bit. "They're evolving or something."
[22:06] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Evolving.
[22:06] <01@Myria> We better move on!
[22:06] <01@Xanatos> Are they getting sentient? 6He moves forward.
[22:06] <01Chad`Winters> I doubt it. This one most likely had more time to complete it's change.
01[22:06] <01@Angela> "This one went for weapons."
[22:06] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao pants, then hurries. Darien keeps facing the way they came, walking backwards
06[22:07] * 01@Angela moves on.
[22:07] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC walks beside Darien, constantly looking backwards
[22:07] <01@DeathStar> 6* As they near a stairway point, they can see a figure up ahead, wearing a Cartel uniform, banging his head into his own gun
06[22:08] * 01Chad`Winters trains his pistol on the Cartel guy.
[22:08] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> ...ok... *aims her gun at the headbanger*
06[22:08] * 01@Angela aims her Samaritan, readying a Red Shell.
[22:08] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin keeps him in sight. The man stops and turns to face them, missing his eyes
[22:08] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> ... this is terrible. His mind is in agony.
01[22:09] <01@Angela> "What do we do?"
[22:09] <01Chad`Winters> Put him out of his misery.
[22:09] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Then take a sample.
01[22:09] <01@Angela> "...Someone else shoot then. My bullet would remove samples."
[22:09] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin nods, then fires, taking the man's brain matter out of his head
[22:09] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She looks more weary now
[22:10] <01@Myria> Shall I extract the sample now?
[22:10] <01@Xanatos> ...Myria, go ahead.
[22:10] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Yeah.
06[22:11] * 01Chad`Winters keeps his pistol trained on the dead man
06[22:11] * 01@Myria moves forward to extract the sample.
[22:11] <01@DeathStar> 6* A reddish substance fills the sample and a little organism floats in it, banging against the glass
06[22:12] * 01@Xanatos squints and steps forward, eyeing it. 1A parasite.
[22:12] <01@Myria> Hello, what have we here? *starts her analysis*
[22:13] <01@DeathStar> 6* It appears to be an unknown life form - she'd need to study it in better conditions to learn more. Though it is draining the red substance in the glass slowly
06[22:13] * 01@Angela seems to hold back saying something, "We---"
[22:13] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien eyes the way they came while Paladin moves to the stair door, eyeing the dead control panel.
06[22:13] * 01Chad`Winters rubs his face with his free hand
[22:13] <01Chad`Winters> <SPoC> It would be best if we do not let those creatures make physical contact with us.
[22:14] <01@Myria> It seems to feed on blood.
[22:14] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek moves forward to activate the control panel.
[22:14] <01@DeathStar> 6* The panel lights up and Paladin opens the door. Stairs go up and down, with doors every 10 meters up, probably leading to other tunnels that lead to more stairs or zones
[22:14] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis steps over after saying another prayer, eyeing the stairwell
06[22:15] * 01Chad`Winters moves over to the stairwell and peers up and down
[22:15] <01@DeathStar> <Paladin> Probably going to be a maze.
04[22:15] <01@DeathStar> 6* The parasite bangs against the glass, as if trying to get at Angela
06[22:16] * 01@Angela frowns at it and takes a step away from it.
[22:16] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien rubs his eyes. Ao peers - there's symbols on the walls that she reads to herself
06[22:16] * 01@Xanatos shakes his head. 1Someone tell me where to go.
[22:16] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek tries to figure it out as he peers around. 1Well, Zone 1 is in the spire and that's upward. So do we go up?
[22:17] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Uh. Well, it's also in the middle of the ship
01[22:17] <01@Angela> "And we're on the bottom?"
[22:17] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Right but we can go up until we can't anymore, then move towards the middle, right?
[22:17] <01@DeathStar> <Paladin> Drasek is right
[22:17] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Middle.
04[22:17] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao eyes Angela
[22:17] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Middle edge technically
06[22:17] * 01Chad`Winters records the symbols again
06[22:17] * 01@Angela frowns a bit and rubs her head. Eyeing the sample.
[22:18] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin moves up the stairs
[22:18] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> I hate big ships
[22:18] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis follows. The lights flicker in the stairway, then go out
[22:18] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> I hate the dark
06[22:19] * 01@Xanatos moves up, pausing at the lights going out. 1Do you think it's doing this on purpose?
[22:19] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *switches to night vision again*
06[22:19] * 01@Angela taps her HMD again, readying her gun.
06[22:19] * 01Chad`Winters frowns and he sweeps his gun, using the light attachment, up the way there going
04[22:19] <01@DeathStar> 6* Something seems to move laong the wall above Angela, like a spider
06[22:19] * 01@Angela looks up, aiming her gun upward.
06[22:19] * 01Chad`Winters follows his gun with it, trying to get a lock on it
[22:19] <01@DeathStar> 6* When they move up, it's gone
[22:20] <01@Xanatos> ...
[22:20] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Problems?
[22:20] <01Chad`Winters> I saw something.
[22:20] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao grabs Xan's left arm
[22:20] <01@Myria> What did you see?
06[22:20] * 01@Angela looks around. "It was like a spider..."
[22:20] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin looks around
06[22:20] * 01@Xanatos jerks slightly, then lets out a breath. 1You scared me.
[22:20] <01Chad`Winters> If I knew what I saw, I wouldn't have said something.
[22:20] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> How cute, you both saw something.
[22:21] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao eyes Xan. "H-Ha.."
[22:21] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin begins to move up again. "Lets move."
[22:21] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis follows him once more
[22:21] <01@Myria> Could it have been the mama? *hold sup her sample*
06[22:21] * 01@Xanatos lets out a breath, giving Ao a smile and then moves to follow Paladin.
06[22:21] * 01@Angela checks over herself as they move.
[22:21] <01Chad`Winters> Why don't you ask it if we see it agin.
[22:21] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *starts forward again*
[22:22] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek snorts as he moves forward. 1You're so nice, mate. 6He says to CHad.
[22:22] <01@DeathStar> 6* The sounds of screams and gun fire can be heard above.
[22:22] <01Chad`Winters> It's my charm. 6He says dully as he looks up towards the screaming
[22:22] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin eyes upward. Wherever it is, they can't see it from here
01[22:23] <01@Angela> "Well, we're on the right track... maybe?"
[22:23] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> To death, maybe
[22:23] <01@Xanatos> I think we've found some of the Cartel. 6He notes blandly.
[22:23] <01Chad`Winters> We should get to the screamers before the change.
[22:23] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Hah. Screamers. 6He moves upward.
[22:23] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> ...
[22:23] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *moves forward, gun pointed ahead*
[22:23] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin moves along. Suddenly, something grabs him and lifts him up the stairs rapidly, dragging him
[22:24] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Gordon Paladin!
01[22:24] <01@Angela> "...Crap!"
06[22:24] * 01@Xanatos widens his eyes and tries to get a lock on what's dragging him, breaking into a run after him.
[22:24] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *fires a grapple to snag Paladin*
06[22:24] * 01Chad`Winters breaks into a dash with Xanatos
06[22:24] * 01@Angela aims, trying to catch whatever it is, moving after him.
[22:24] <01@DeathStar> 6* Whatever it is, it blends in with the dark, but it seems to be spiderish. Paladin is snaged, then is pulled in two directions, about to be ripped in half
06[22:25] * 01@Xanatos begins to fire towards the spiderist tentacle thing.
06[22:25] * 01Chad`Winters tries to get a sight onto whatever's pulling him
[22:25] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Take it down!
[22:25] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien hurries up, his eyes wide. The spider tugs, ripping Paladin's arm off.
06[22:25] * 01Chad`Winters fires an overcharged shot for the spider now
06[22:25] * 01@Angela spins her revolver around to a blue shell and fires it at the thing.
[22:25] <01@DeathStar> 6* It scurries away with it's prize to avoid the shots, though it is hit a few times. Paladin lays there, bleeding. Erevis hurries over, kneeling
[22:25] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek eyes Cassandra and shakes his head slightly, moving up to check on Paladin.
[22:26] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Know that feeling
[22:26] <01@Xanatos> Here. Let me get this crystal, send Paladin back to Billy.
[22:26] <01@DeathStar> 6* The spider avoids the blue shell
[22:26] <01Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Paladin. 6She rushes up towards him
[22:26] <01@Myria> Wait! **runs up and scans Paladin*
[22:26] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin groans in pain. He doesn't seem to have anything in him
[22:26] <01@Myria> He's showing clean.
01[22:26] <01@Angela> * It harmlessly makes a blue blast of energy on the cieling then.
[22:26] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis applies pressure where she can
[22:26] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> I-I hate spiders...
06[22:27] * 01@Xanatos pulls out the crystal and reaches it out to Paladin. 1Here. Touch this. And, I guess think about teleporting or something? She didn't exactly tell me how to use it.
06[22:27] * 01Chad`Winters pulls out some gauze and presses it against the exposed area
[22:27] <01@DeathStar> 6* Paladin touches it and puts it on the ground, holding it. He fades away in black.
[22:27] <01@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[22:27] <01@DeathStar> Location: Hanger
[22:27] <01@DeathStar> 6* Billy blinks as Paladin appears, bleeding from a missing limb.
[22:27] <01@DeathStar> <Billy> Whoa.
[22:28] <01@DeathStar> 6* Billy pokes him with a stick
[22:28] <01Chad`Winters> 6Loki sneers at Paladin appearing. 1"That can't be good."
[22:28] <01@DeathStar> 6* Iceheart and Eve move over to him, checking him over. <Iceheart> Lets get him to the medical bay on my ship
[22:28] <01@Xanatos> 6* Marcus rubs at his eyes steps off of the ship. 1Ugh, how long was I asleep?
[22:28] <01@DeathStar> <Zephyr> ...
[22:28] <01Chad`Winters> 6Loki whistles at their crew to help
[22:29] <01@DeathStar> 6* The remaining few people left head over to pick up Paladin. Aya moves over in alarm, trying to heal him as she holds on
[22:29] <01@Xanatos> 6* Marcus pauses and widens his eyes, movign with them. 1What happened? Did they leave already?
[22:30] <01@DeathStar> <Billy> They left and sent back a present. 6* She watches them move Paladin into the ship
[22:30] <01@DeathStar> <Iceheart> Which means they're a man down now
[22:30] <01@Xanatos> <Marcus> Should I go?
[22:31] <01Chad`Winters> <Loki> Only if you think you're a man
[22:31] <01@Xanatos> <Marcus> I'm a cook, does that count?
[22:31] <01@DeathStar> <Billy> Only if you plan to cook them
[22:31] <01Chad`Winters> <Loki> I'm sure you could sautee whatever it is that did that.
[22:31] <01@DeathStar> 6* The man set Paladin down on a medical bed and hook up supplies into him
[22:31] <01@Xanatos> <Marcus> Well I do work a sweet shotgun.
[22:31] <01@DeathStar> *men
[22:32] <01@DeathStar> <Billy> The crystal is already moving again, we can't send anyone
[22:32] <01Chad`Winters> <Loki> A shame, no brave moment for you.
[22:32] <01@DeathStar> 6* Iceheart sighs
[22:32] <01@DeathStar> <Iceheart> I just hope they get power back on soon
[22:33] <01@Xanatos> <Marcus> Is he going to be okay? Where's Caduceus?
[22:33] <01@DeathStar> <Eve> I think he's still recovering from healing Iceheart.
[22:33] <01Chad`Winters> <Loki> Well I don't think he'll be playing any two hand touch.
[22:33] <01@Xanatos> <Marcus> Oh...well I hope the rest of them keep all their limbs or we're going to be screwed.
[22:33] <01@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[22:33] <01@DeathStar> Location: Stairwell
[22:34] <01@DeathStar> 6* After recovering the crystal, the team has moved up for the last 30 minutes
[22:34] <01@Xanatos> Ugh. I think i'm getting old. 6He notes, making a face.
[22:34] <01Chad`Winters> It's because you are.
06[22:34] * 01@Angela shakes her head a bit.
[22:34] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> You are old, too
[22:34] <01Chad`Winters> Great, Zeph's got you doing it too.
[22:35] <01@DeathStar> 6* They finally reach the end of this stairwell, where a door is present. Probably leading further into the center of the ship
[22:35] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> She told me you liked being an older man
[22:35] <01@Xanatos> He thinks he gets better with age, like Cheese and Wine.
[22:35] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek moves up to get the door open.
03[22:35] * X1 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) has joined #erevis
06[22:35] * 01@Angela readies her Samaritan.
[22:35] <01Chad`Winters> She did, huh? 6He raises his gun at the door now
[22:36] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien frowns now that their shield is gone. The door opens to a small hallway
[22:36] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> So, who wants to take PAladin's place?
[22:36] <01@Xanatos> I can. 6He moves forward, holding his pistol up as he moves along.
[22:36] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> ... 6* She looks worried. "I will."
04[22:36] <01Chad`Winters> We could always let Angela take the lead. 6He notes in a neutral tone.
01[22:37] <01@Angela> "Fine."
[22:37] <01@Xanatos> Just make sure to kill Cassie if she tries to snag me when I getting drug away.
[22:37] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> I will lead. It is I who got us here
[22:37] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves forward, hand on her blade hilt
06[22:37] * 01@Xanatos gives Erevis a look.
[22:37] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien quirks a brow
[22:37] <01Chad`Winters> How noble of you, if not dumb.
[22:37] <01@Myria> Would you like to be eaten outright?
06[22:38] * 01@Angela frowns, getting a dark look.
[22:38] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Would you like to be eaten outright?
[22:38] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek rubs his shoulder slightly as he moves.
[22:38] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> I am neither dumb, nor weak. And I am not eaten unless I desire to be
[22:38] <01@Xanatos> I would have a higher rate of survival with all of my appendages, Cass. 6He moves with Erevis, though behind her somewhat so she can lead.
[22:38] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao sticks with Erevis, while Darien just looks amused at her leading
06[22:39] * 01@Angela walks along quietly once again.
[22:39] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> You see what he did there, since you got Paladin's arm ripped off?
06[22:39] * 01Chad`Winters follows along, his eyes more keen on the walls
[22:39] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek keeps glancing over his shoulder, being wary at this point.
[22:39] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC glances back the way they came as she walks after the others
[22:40] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Well, my legs are somehwere on Mt Fuji, my arms are who knows where...oh...wait...I do know what its like to have my arms ripped off.
[22:40] <01@DeathStar> 6* The hallway moves them to another door, which Erevis opens. It leads to an open area between zones, the tram system.
[22:40] <01@DeathStar> 6* On the other side of the walk way is another set of doors that would lead to more hallways/stairs if they want to use those instead
06[22:40] * 01@Angela looks around for a tram.
06[22:41] * 01@Xanatos glances around looking for an enemy.
[22:41] <01@DeathStar> 6* There's only a control panel - no tram
[22:41] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers about silently.
[22:41] <01Chad`Winters> There's the control panel
[22:41] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek moves over tot he control panel, checking it out.
[22:41] <01@DeathStar> 6* The symbols basically indicate summoning the tram, but the panel is dead
[22:42] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek lets out a breath. 1This is how we'd get the tram if the ruddy thing wasn't dead.
[22:42] <01Chad`Winters> Try powering it up
[22:43] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien walks about
[22:43] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek nods and does so.
[22:43] <01@DeathStar> 6* It drains a lot of energy, but the panel flickers on
[22:43] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek lets out a breath, falling to his knee, breathing heavy.
[22:44] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves to support him, while Darien moves over and hits a button.
06[22:44] * 01Chad`Winters eyes Drasek then spins around as he looks at the place
[22:44] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC keeps her rifle up as she looks around.
06[22:44] * 01@Angela watches quietly, eyeing people.
[22:44] <01@DeathStar> 6* Chad comes face to face with someone who looks a bit like him, gun aimed.
[22:44] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> Whoa.
06[22:44] * 01Chad`Winters responds by aiming his gun right back at him.
06[22:44] * 01@Angela levels her gun at Vivi.
[22:44] <01@DeathStar> 6* Vivi stares at him, then the others, then shrugs, lowering it. "Don't look like zombies to me."
[22:45] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Well that was not good.
06[22:45] * 01@Xanatos eyes Drasek, then Vivi, watching him.
[22:45] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Do any of your crew still live besides yoruself?
[22:45] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Are you okay...? 6* She keeps an eye on Vivi as she helps Drasek up. Darien waits for the tram
06[22:45] * 01Chad`Winters grunts in response and lowers his gun after a moment.
[22:45] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> Haven't seen any in hours
01[22:45] <01@Angela> "Hmm..."
[22:45] <01Chad`Winters> How'd you manage to survive then?
[22:45] <01@Myria> It was a parasite!
[22:46] <01@Xanatos> <Drasek> Just won't be using hyperspace for a bit. 6He stands up, nodding towards her.
[22:46] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> I've been called many things, but I take offense at parasite.
[22:46] <01@DeathStar> 6* A tram moves up, stopping, then going, stopping, then going, lights flickering on it
[22:46] <01@DeathStar> 6* It stops in front of them, doors opening
[22:47] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> I've been trying to figure out how to use that panel for a while now.
[22:47] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> So...who do we have to plug in to keep the tram going?
01[22:47] <01@Angela> "All aboard for spasm express."
[22:47] <01@Xanatos> I sure hope no one has a weak stomach.
[22:47] <01Chad`Winters> So you used your crew to get all the way here?
[22:47] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien steps on, and Ao moves in.
06[22:47] * 01@Angela heads after Darien and Ao.
[22:47] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves over to and it waits at the doorway
[22:47] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *steps on, followed by Myria.
[22:47] <01@DeathStar> 6* Vivi just smiles, moving for the tram
[22:47] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek gets on, and looks for a place to sit down.
06[22:47] * 01@Xanatos pauses and holds a hand up. 1Whoa whoa. Who said you're allowe don?
[22:47] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis moves in and looks over the controls, Ao stepping over, explaining buttons
06[22:47] * 01Chad`Winters watches Vivi as he moves after him for the trm
[22:48] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> You would leave a man behind to die?
[22:48] <01Chad`Winters> Depends on the man.
[22:48] <01@Xanatos> You're just lucky you're Chad's brother. 6He notes, moving to get on now.
[22:48] <01@DeathStar> 6* Vivi arches a brow at that, then eyes Chad
06[22:48] * 01Chad`Winters eyes Vivi.
[22:49] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> ... 6* He leans in a bit to eye him
06[22:49] * 01Chad`Winters ignores him and moves onto the tram
[22:49] <01@DeathStar> 6* Vivi follows him on, a curious look with a smile
[22:50] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis touches a button and the tram moves forward
[22:51] <01@DeathStar> 6* A ramp lowers in front of them and the tram moves up in a diagonal motion. A thud is heard on the roof
[22:51] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien turns and PAladin's arm flies in at Cassandra's face
06[22:51] * 01Chad`Winters peers up at the roof.
[22:51] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> I think we're not alone on here
06[22:51] * 01@Angela looks up, pulling out her Samaritan. "...Okay that's jut wrong."
04[22:51] <01@DeathStar> 6* Something grabs Angela from behind, pulling her out the window
06[22:52] * 01@Angela cries out and tries to grab onto something. "ACK!"
04[22:52] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Angela.
04[22:52] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC spins towards Angela, training her rifle towards it
[22:52] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien moves forward, grabbing at her leg. Agnela's grip hlds for now, but her other arm is about to rip off
01[22:52] <01@Angela> "M-My arm!"
06[22:52] * 01Chad`Winters aims his pistol at whatever's grabbing her, trying to get a clear shot
[22:52] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis peers over, and Ao steps up to power the tram. Erevis unsheathes her sword. <Erevis> Let go or you will end up like Gordon Paladin
06[22:52] * 01@Xanatos shifts around, pistol aimed, he aims for the ceiling, narrowing his eyes, he switches to infared, trying to get a lock on the creature.
[22:53] <01@DeathStar> 6* There's only an arm, but it's using her as a shield.
[22:53] <01@DeathStar> 6* There's no heat signature for Xan to see
06[22:53] * 01@Angela lets go. But a the same time lets a stun puls fire from the arm being held.
06[22:53] * 01@Myria tries to telepathiclaly sense out whatever is up there.
04[22:53] <01@DeathStar> 6* Angela misses. She's yanked up onto the roof with the spider creature. Only thing Myria feels is hunger
[22:53] <01@DeathStar> 6* The creatures begins to bite at her shoulder
06[22:53] * 01@Xanatos moves over to the window and leans to attempt and climb up after her.
06[22:54] * 01@Angela kicks out at the creature and cries out in pain.
[22:54] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis shifts around to climb up, as does Darien
04[22:54] <01@DeathStar> 6* Angela's kick stumbles it, but it just bites down, bone crunching
[22:54] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *moves to climb up as well*
[22:54] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves to the edge and starts climbing up.
06[22:54] * 01Chad`Winters moves over to Ao to cover her
[22:54] <01@DeathStar> 6* The tram speeds up now
[22:54] <01@DeathStar> 6* The speed enoug hto make it hard to balance.
06[22:54] * 01@Angela screams in pain, "GET IT OFF!"
04[22:55] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis psionically yanks Angela from it, tearing her flesh in it's mouth, but frees her
[22:55] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien stumbles, using his left arm to grip.
06[22:55] * 01@Xanatos kneels, trying to keep his balance, firing up towards the spider.
[22:55] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC tries to keep her balance and opens fire at it with her rifle
06[22:55] * 01@Angela grips onto the tram with her good arm, whimpering in pain.
[22:55] <01@DeathStar> 6* The spider is hit and stumbles around
[22:56] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis holds the rune blade ready, psionically locking herself to the roof
06[22:56] * 01@Xanatos tries to assess it to find a weakness.
04[22:56] <01@DeathStar> 6* Angela's wound slowly seals, though the bones remain broken
[22:56] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC continues firing at it.
[22:56] <01@DeathStar> 6* The spider creature begins to run forward, using it's eight legs to scurry about
03[22:56] * Wiendigo (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) has joined #erevis
[22:56] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *grapples herself to the roof of the tram, then pulls out a rifle and then takes aim before firing off a round into the spider*
[22:56] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien grabs his energy sword
06[22:57] * 01@Angela latches herself onto the roof, pulling out military grade nanites and pumping them into her shoulder, crying out in the further pain that brings her, grasping for breath.
[22:57] <01@DeathStar> 6* The spider stumbles once
[22:57] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC charges up a shot and fires at it
[22:57] <01@DeathStar> 6* The nanites begin to cause her wounds to reopen and agony to increase
06[22:57] * 01@Xanatos aims for a leg, charging up and firing a shot for it.
[22:57] <01@DeathStar> 6* The leg splatters and it howls
[22:58] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien slides by, cutting another leg as he goes by and almost off the tram
[22:58] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC slides back and she charges up another shot, aiming for another leg
06[22:58] * 01@Angela screams more, confused at that, she pulls out a device and snaps it over her shoulder, the small emp pulse deadening the nanites. "F-Fuck..."
[22:58] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *fires a shot at the spider's head*
02[22:59] * X1 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
[22:59] <01@DeathStar> 6* With three legs gone, the spider begins to slide toward the back, it's traction nearly goen - the head shot makes it stumble
[22:59] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC charges up another shot and fires for another leg
06[22:59] * 01@Angela lays there, deciding to let her body do the healing. She holds on and closes her eyes.
06[22:59] * 01@Xanatos charges up and fires for the 5th leg.
[22:59] <01@DeathStar> 6* Her body isn't real healing this time
[23:00] <01@DeathStar> 6* The spider flies off the tram and goes splat.
[23:00] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien shifts to pull himself up. The tram slows and comes to a stop at another platform.
[23:00] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC uses this time to climb back in
06[23:01] * 01@Angela lays there bleeding and in pain, shivering. "Why won't it heal..."
04[23:01] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis sheathes the sword and checks Angela over. Darien moves over to eye her, too
[23:01] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> We may have to send her back to the hangar.
06[23:01] * 01@Xanatos eyes her. 1Well, you know nanites won't work anymore.
[23:01] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> We should probably plant the crystal here and return to the hanger for a moment. We can come back Billy said
06[23:02] * 01@Xanatos nods to Darien. 1It'll give people to switch up too, if they want to remain and let someone else go.
06[23:02] * 01@Xanatos pulls out the crystal and sets it down.
[23:02] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Hold on. *goes to get Paladin's arm and then comes back*
[23:02] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao eyes the chewed on arm
[23:02] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Gross
01[23:02] <01@Angela> "Yeah... it started healing on it's own but eh nanites made it go crazy..."
01[23:03] <01@Angela> "Myria... ch-check me for parasites."
04[23:03] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien helps Angela down to the ground for Myria to check on
[23:03] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> Well, that was fun
[23:03] <01@DeathStar> 6* Vivi steps off.
[23:03] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC steps out onto the platform
06[23:04] * 01Chad`Winters drops the clip out of Ebony, checking it. He slaps it back in.
[23:04] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek pushes himself up and steps off, peering around.
04[23:04] * 01@Myria scans Angela.
04[23:04] <01@DeathStar> 6* Angela has parasites in her blood
[23:04] <01@DeathStar> 6* With her healing offline, they seem to have free reign
[23:04] <01@Myria> Infected!
01[23:04] <01@Angela> "Shit..."
04[23:04] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien pauses, eyeing Angela now
[23:04] <01@Xanatos> Fuck. What do we do? Myria, can you extract them?
01[23:05] <01@Angela> "I think I kicked my healing ability for a bit... so I need something else?"
[23:05] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> If we take her to the hanger, we endanger the others.
[23:05] <01@Myria> I'll try! *gets to work to try to extract them, using her datapad readings as a guide*
06[23:05] * 01Chad`Winters steps of the platform and he rubs his face.
[23:05] <01@DeathStar> 6* The parasites have moved to her heart and brain. Extracting them is too dangerous
02[23:06] * Wiendigo (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
[23:06] <01@Myria> ...its...too late...they have reache dyour vitals organs.
[23:06] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Maybe we give her another serum her abilities will return
01[23:06] <01@Angela> "No..."
[23:06] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek kneels. 1Do we have any on us?
01[23:06] <01@Angela> "Yes."
06[23:07] * 01@Angela fumbles for her medical bag. "Took one with me... after the whole... risk factor..."
06[23:07] * 01@Angela pulls it out and holds it up. "In the neck, fast dispersal."
[23:08] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> How many does this mean she has left?
[23:08] <01@Xanatos> A handful or so
01[23:08] <01@Angela> "Have a full case of them."
[23:08] <01@DeathStar> <Ao> Assuming they didn't get smashed in the crash
[23:08] <01@DeathStar> 6* Ao looks about worriedly. Vivi watches with interest
01[23:09] <01@Angela> "Hope not, they were with the others stuff..." *she injects herself*
06[23:09] * 01Chad`Winters looks around the platform, finding that more interesting
[23:09] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> Alright, lets head back.
[23:09] <01@DeathStar> 6* Darien moves to touch the crystal
04[23:09] <01@Myria> We'll need to isolate Angela until we are sure though.
01[23:09] <01@Angela> "Monitor them... yeah..."
[23:09] <01@DeathStar> <Erevis> Noname can put her in a crystal barrier
[23:10] <01@Xanatos> ...good ol Noname. 6He reaches out to touch the crystal.
[23:10] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek moves to touch it as well.
06[23:10] * 01@Angela moves over weakly to touch it.
[23:10] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis and Ao touch it, then Vivi does, to be cool
06[23:10] * 01Chad`Winters moves to touch it himself
[23:10] <01@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[23:10] <01@DeathStar> Location: Hanger
04[23:10] <01@DeathStar> 6* The team reappears. Billy eyes Angela
[23:10] <01@DeathStar> <Billy> She dead?
01[23:10] <01@Angela> "Not yet."
[23:10] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> Umm...we found Paladin's arm.
[23:10] <01@DeathStar> 6* Eve makes a face
[23:11] <01@DeathStar> 6* Vivi peers about
06[23:11] * 01@Xanatos glances around. 1Well. Someone get noname.
[23:11] <01Chad`Winters> 6Loki eyes Vivi and he sighs, smacking his own face
[23:11] <01@DeathStar> 6* Noname moves over once his name is spoke
[23:11] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> Loki, you old dog, you managed to live
[23:11] <01@DeathStar> 6* Icehearts eyes Vivi
06[23:11] * 01Chad`Winters holsters Ebony.
[23:12] <01Chad`Winters> <Loki> And you didn't die, apparently Lady Luck favors both of us.
[23:12] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> I know you would be crushed if you didn't get to orchestrate my death yourself
[23:12] <01@DeathStar> 6* Iceheart shakes her head at the two
04[23:12] <01@Xanatos> We need you to put a barrier around Angela. She's infected.
[23:12] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek moves over and sits down, tired.
[23:12] <01Chad`Winters> <Loki> Orchestra's aren't my style.
[23:12] <01@Xanatos> 6* Marcus watches them with his arms crossed.
[23:12] <01@DeathStar> <Noname> I see. 6* He touches the floor, surrounding her in the barrier. Fiore moves over and offers him a beer she found
[23:13] <01@Myria> Hopefully, her body can fight off the infestation.
[23:13] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC moves off to the side and sits down.
01[23:13] <01@Angela> "Thanks."
[23:13] <01@DeathStar> <Darien> I'll go see if I can find Caduceus. 6* He moves off. Eve points at Cass. "PAladin is in the medical room on the ship."
[23:13] <01@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr plops by SPoC.
[23:13] <01Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Hello Zephyr.
[23:13] <01@DeathStar> <Zephyr> You all okay?
[23:13] <01@DeathStar> 6* Erevis takes a moment to kneel.
06[23:13] * 01Chad`Winters moves over to Eve. 1"Where's Alex?"
[23:14] <01@DeathStar> 6* Vivi laughs a bit, then pulls out two cigars, offering Loki one
[23:14] <01@DeathStar> <Vivi> To celebrate finding this ship
[23:14] <01@DeathStar> 6* Eve looks at Chad. "In one of the guest rooms."
[23:14] <01@Myria> 6<14Cassandra6> *carries the arm into the ship*
[23:14] <01Chad`Winters> 6Loki eyes the cigar and takes it. 1"Hurrah." 6He makes a false look of joy.
06[23:14] * 01@Angela closes her eyes, as if trying to will herself better. She sighs and lays back, soaking gently in the pain.
[23:14] <01@Xanatos> 6* Drasek takes the beer with a smile and cracks it open, drinking.
04[23:14] <01Chad`Winters> <SPoC> Besides what happened to Paladin and Angela, yes.
06[23:15] * 01Chad`Winters nods and he heads inside the ship
[23:15] <01@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yeah, it's a shame about Gordon
[23:15] <01Chad`Winters> 6SPoC frowns. 1"I was not able to get to him in time."
[23:15] <01@DeathStar> <Zephyr> He'll be okay, he's tough
06[23:15] * 01@Xanatos puts a hand to his face and sits down now, looking tired despite them not really doing much.
