Chapter 3-A: Calm before the Storm Part 2

=I walk to the hangar=

I repeat, is anyone there?

=I begin to enter a Pelican=

=She smiles=
I can hold my own, call out to me if you find something

=She walks over to the Bunker=

I watch her walk for a few minutes

Hmm. I worry about you sometimes Ash.

I turn and begin search around my area for anything electronic

I'll try.

=i sit up, and begin to work the controls, trying to guide this thing in for a landing. i manage to hit the landing zone Jay marked, as well as the surrounding trees, a small pile of rocks, and a stream. I hop out, relatively unharmed, and stagger over to the base= Ta-da! and I still managed to live!

(He leaves the room grabbing his supply bag)
(He takes a look inside)
(The Mini-gun still there)
(He heads to the hanger and sees Snow climb into a pelican)
(He rushes over)
(He gets inside)
@Snow
Hey man.

I glare at him

You did that on purpose just because i told you to stay behind.

Oh.. hey

=I was confused=

What is going on?

No, i did it because my wires were crossed. and a button was misplaced. Why would I wreck my ship? It's sexy.

=a thruster explodes, it sounds like a frag grenade, startling me= Dammit.

(He notices his confusion)
@Snow
I have no idea
Im guessing everyone is on that planet down there

Oh crap

(He takes Andrea's chip and inserts into his helmet)
There we go
Anyway
Might want to get down there quietly

=Ash reaches the Bunker, its protected with a rusty metal door. She tries to force it open=
Dam won't budge...

=She wacks it with the bud of her rifle, the door falls off its rust hinges=
Well I guess that works to...

=She walks inside=

Mhmm.

I walk over to him and press myself against him

As sexy as me?

I laugh and back away to my sitting position.

Those blueprints i asked for?

nvm again

David hears a ton of talking, coming from somewhere. He decides to walk over to where he found a spare-comm, looking around for a possible owner before snatching it up, hoping no one will mind. He decides to talk into the comm, "Test, test..."

Roger

=I close the blast doors and descend to the planet=

I will land behind that rock

=I get out and throw a cam net over the pelican=

=i smile= Of course not.

As for the blueprints, got a comm link with keyboard?

No, thats why i was asking for them when you were up there.

I point to the sky with my pistol

Idiot. Great so now we are stick here hoping Ash can find us a way in. Unless you just want to blow this door.

=hears a pelican so he goes to see what's going on and sees draco and snow =

(He gets out and unlimbers his Angel Maker)
@Snow
Well lets go

=She looks around a dusty terminal sits opposite her=
Looks like that might do something... The air in here... tastes, strange...

=She walks over to the terminal=

Code:

Power 12%
Doors LOCKED
Lights OFF
Back up power OFF

Lets see what I can do..

Oh, hey Zeru.. fancy meeting you here

=I unsling my DMR=

Sorry, I figure me and my body intact were more important than blueprints. =i smile= And where is Ash anyway?

I yell to Ash

Hey you got anything? Or shall i just go ahead with plan A.

I pull the plasma charges out of my satchel and begin playing catch with them.

I turn back to Dormii

I don't know. You'll have to show me just how much i might miss that body.

=i put my good arm around her= I can do that. I might even be able to get us in with the Dream of Luck that Ran out, save you a plasma charge if you want. Not like it's going anywhere.

(He fights the urge to slice Zeru's neck)
(He walks off back to the pelican)
(No words, No actions, can reverse what he had done)

=She begins restarting the Facility's systems=

Code:

RESTART.....7%....25%....49%...67%...96%..100%
SYSTEMS RESTARTED
.
.
.
.
ALL SYSTEMS ONLINE

That worked!

=She turns her head an yells franticly back at Jay
I GOT IT!

Well you can drive

=I pull the cam net off and store it away=

Get us out of here.

I'm really not fussed. I have tons of these. It'd be nice to get rid of a few of them. And when can you do that exactly?

I hear Ash's yell and sigh, pocketing the charges.

Awww and i wanted an explosion.

=i give a quick peck on the cheek and whisper= Well......maybe a house warming gift?

I turn and smile

We'll see. Maybe you might be able to do the other thing you said aswell.

I wink at him and wait for Ash to open the doors

=gets in the seat and flies it out when they get into the trophaeum he looks out and whatches the explosion after which he heads to the bridge= -to draco- i'm not stupid i can tell u want revenge for what happened to grace if somethings bugging u let it it out nothing good will come from holding it in so what is the matter

=She runs back over to the group=
Looks like I just had to turn it off and on again.

=She smiles=
Thanks for the help Dormii... You proved to be a valuable member of the team once again...

=She laughs, then opens the doors=

=I take a step away from Zeru and Draco=

I will let you two settle this

=I sit in a command chair=

=i laugh= I know right? It's crazy how helpful I am!

=I turn to Jay= Maybe. =i kiss her= Wanna go see our new home?

I laugh with Ash, sigh at Dormii and then walk into the compound

Alright, split up. Meet back in in ten minutes. Let's check this place out.

=She nods=
Meet you guys back here in ten...

=She walks off to the living quarters=

I'll take the north section. That always has some good places.

=i explore, finding obstacle courses, a firing range, even a security office, complete with shotguns and ammo= Hell yea!

=i open a comm over the base intercom= Hey anyone call dibs on some obstacle courses, target dummys, or some shotguns? Cuz I found all of that.

=Ash walks deeper into the complex=
I wonder why they left this place...

=She heads inside one of the Sleeping areas the beds still made=
This place gives me the creeps... everything looks unused..

=She explores the selves and compartments=

I continue searching the corridors. All empty. Nothing in the armoury or any of the food stores.

I got nothing over here. Looks like we are going to have to bring down supplies from the Frigate.

(I yell over the comms) Dibs on the target dummies!

(Adding) And one of the courses, too!

Well, =i pick up a shotgun= let's see if my new crutch works.

=i head off to the firing range and take a few shots= Just like it was freshly made. =i yell= That was me! Sorry if I scared you!

=i keep walking, i end up in the mess hall= =to Jay= Hey, find anything good?

=She spots a photo and takes a closer look, she smiles=
They look happy... I wonder what happened to these people...

=Coms=There's not a lot here just empty beds...

Ash come meet us in the mess hall.

I switch the comms off and turn to Dormii

Wait here for Ash. I just need to go... My room...This was my base....You understand...

I run off quickly

Sure.

=i sit down and toy with the shotgun=

=Ash puts the photo back and walks back to the mess hall.=
I'm glad I can get out of here... it was getting creepy.

=She walks into the mess hall=

=i look up and see Quill= Hey, want a shotgun? I found like four or five back there. =i gesture to the hallway I came from=

=i hold up the shotgun i was toying with= Do you think a belt feed would work on this thing?

=She shakes her head=
I have no idea... I would be careful with that though, its been lying around for years.. could missfire.

=She sits down next to Dromii=
