[SoLmaster]

"Hey, Eve got the blue prints yet?"

 

[Phoonix]

"this is going to make our jobs so much more easy." he smiled.

 

[SoLmaster]

OOC: HE has an expermental system with advance controls. Eve has coding for all of the two races.

 

[Gyrosphinx]

"...searchin through the files sir, but this Ghauron understands the coding better than I do, I was programmed by the OTE..." Eve replied, seemingly irritated at herself.
"Hold it, I think I found something!" Herthur exclaimed, then proceeded to click a button, and a holo-map showing at least 4 flours showed up. The terminal was located in the top-floor, only the entrance above it.

OOC: But not all coding, she was programmed at the OTE, they don't have access to every code used by the Ghauron, and definately not the symbols. Though she can work through the coding without knowing the symbols, she cannot translate it.

 

[SoLmaster]

"Good now who going there?"

 

[Phoonix]

"wow... this things is, pretty big. so are the defense systems down to?"

 

[Gyrosphinx]

"Defense is down matey! We can safely scrounge through this thing now I hope. Unless the thing that killed those..." He pointed at the scorched skeletons "...is not the Defense systems."

 

[SoLmaster]

OOC: OK, but remember he is a rouge. He would have a copy of most of the coding form both races.

"That a thought, might I suggest groups for this. One here and one looking thought. I I will be ones scouting."

 

[Gyrosphinx]

OOC: But still, not everything, accept limitations. But you're already doing that so waht am I whining about?

 

[Phoonix]

"ok, hmm..." Eric walks back to his computer and starts searching for files that could point to what exactly this thing was and what it was used for.

 

[SoLmaster]

OOC: If any other races get approved then he will try to get there coding.

 

[Gyrosphinx]

The Marines entered the circular room. "'Ey! You're the scavengers right?" One of them asked.

 

[SoLmaster]

"They are, I am here for the food." I say jokingly.

 

[Phoonix]

Without looking away from his screen Eric says "Yep" and keeps searching for files that might point as to what this thing is.

 

[Gyrosphinx]

"I'm not sure if I'm supposed to laugh or not, but that was actually funny!" One of the marines laughed. The others looked around. You could recognize them as ACU marines, the only ones accepting scavengers.

EDIT: more dialogue.

"Anyway, we tracked a signal here. I wondered if you guys have any knowledge about that?" One of the other marines aid, fitting the image of a grizzled old veteran perfectly.

 

[SoLmaster]

"So, If they is a unknown threat. Then we need to get to that terminal. You ACUs what your squad?"

 

[Gyrosphinx]

"As I said, we tracked a signal here. We're from the Union Militia of course, and we thought this signal might have come from an OTE secret weapon. That is clearly not the case." The marine continued.

 

[SoLmaster]

"Ok, who is your Squad commander?" I walk over to the hologram. "Eve can you detect any life forms in this site?"

 

[Phoonix]

OOC: i would appreciate a reply to my search for history files post :/

"this might not be the case but anyhow, this might be even interesting for you guys. i'm Eric Broad, a merc for the ACU and I've helped the marines multiple times. so if i say it's interesting... it probably is."

 

[Gyrosphinx]

"We're the ACU damnit! No leaders whatsoever!" The marine sounded like he was deeply offended. He then continued. "Oh, Eric! I've heard about you! Pleased to meet you, Hank Stanley."

"...There are so many of you know that I cannot point out anyone outside this room, except for Jake and Mike outside in the truck..." Eve replied.

On the screen, some sort of log file appeared. It was heavily cryptated.

 

[SoLmaster]

"OK, then can you help us get to that vault." I point to it on the hologram. "Ok, thank. warn me if anything pops up?"

 

[Gyrosphinx]

OOC: Well, you seem to have misunderstood, that is the Terminal you're at! Sorry if I did not make myself clear enough earlier.

 

[SoLmaster]

OOC: I edited it.

 

[Phoonix]

Eric nods to hank. and sighs "this whole log is cryptated... such a pain. it's gonna take a while to decrypt probably but... might be useful." and with this he starts looking for the key to the decryption.

 

[Gyrosphinx]

"Well, sure we can, but first, we're gonna take a well deserved rest. We've been travelling all day." Hank replied, then sat down on the floor and lit a cigar. The other marines began to settle down too.

OOC: Getting late here, good night.

 

[Phoonix]

OOC: ye i'ma hit the sack to cya tomorrow... after my math exam :/

 

[Gyrosphinx]

OOC; Good luck on that one. I love math! ^^,

But i hate exams

 

[SoLmaster]

"I will go ahead to the vault, you guys can stay here." I walk out the door and down a air shaft. My guns were out and my armor was sent on stealth.

OOC: bye phoon

 

[Fussiler1]

Mithran sighed and sat down, closing his eyes for a second. He listened to their voices and wondered what was going to happen with them.

 

[Exoplasma]

OOC
In which room are you guys in?

 

[Gyrosphinx]

OOC: The circular room, the door to it is located in the room you are hiding in.

 

[SoLmaster]

OOC: Going down creepy old air shafts, here. With my guns and a few grenades I 'borrowed' from that one dude. Gyro, your turn.

IC: "System: Patch me though to the other." I was still crawling.

 

[Phoonix]

Eric is still Decrypting the log.

 

[SoLmaster]

"Hello, guys are you there? This is the black merc going down the first very long shaft. Need some guidance here." I spoke in my mic.

 

[Exoplasma]

In the meanwhile, back in the room where the door leading to the circular room is located, a still-hiding Ghauron was narrowly observing the crowd in the circular room. His sack was almost crammed with the stuff he picked up from the floor that was now significantle changed from the mess earlier; crowded with metals and other pieces of junk.

But still he was keeping some space for he felt that it would be from an item of high value which will be probably found by this group.

 

[Gyrosphinx]

OOC: Been playing Oblivion all day, sorry guys.

IC:

The log seems hard to crack, you understand that this might take a while.

---

"You seem to be halfway down to the next floor, keep climbing and be on alert, I don't think this thing has been used for a while." Herthur's deep voice replied over the radio.

---

"So, shall we move on?" Hank said to whomever listening and got up. He grabbed his LAR-7 and tossed it over his shoulder.

 

[Phoonix]

IC: Eric sighs again "ugh... decrypting things is such a pain..." even tough he said that he keeps working on it.

 

[SoLmaster]

"Thanks, I have a feeling that there is something in this site." I hated this feeling. "Once I get to the bottom, the line would be sent."

 

[Gyrosphinx]

Suddendly, you break through the log, and on the screen, a message you do not understand pops up.

---

You can see a hatch below. The vent is dark, and you cannot see anything else.

 

[SoLmaster]

"Can someone drop me a glow stick?" I look at the hatch, my feeling grew very strong. "System: Sight: Dim light on."

 

[Gyrosphinx]

"Here ya go!" Tomas shouts down and drops a glowstick. The light is faint, and you can see that the room below the hatch is unlit and in poor shape, much like the other rooms.

 

[SoLmaster]

"Found a hatch. Need two people as back up." I hit down to the hatch and examine it.

 

[Gyrosphinx]

Mike and Jake reentered the room with empty hoverboards. Then Jake was orderd to the hatch, and he and Tomas proceeded to climb down the vent.

 

[SoLmaster]

"Take a look at this." I point to the hatch. "Ok, On the count of three. I will open it and you guys jump down first."

 

[Gyrosphinx]

"Yessir..." Jake said, and the guys readied their guns.

 

[SoLmaster]

"One .......... Two .......... Three!" I opened the hatch.

 

[Gyrosphinx]

Jake and Tomas jumped down. "All clear..." Jake whispered. "Just a corridor."

 

[SoLmaster]

I jump down. "Ok, now where is the Vault?" I turn on my head lights.

 

[Gyrosphinx]

OOC: Sorry... what vault are you talking about?

 

[SoLmaster]

OOC: the big room at the end of the next level.
