Sci-Fi Mini Event 1

[soulping]

[You find yourself in an armory. There's benches, both to work at, and just to sit down. There's maps of star systems, planets, coordinates you don't really understand, no matter how long you look at them. And, yes, since it's an armory, there's armaments. Plenty of them. On one end of the room, there's four small chambers, each with an silhouette of person in a suit of armor over them:

One is a large, muscular person, holding a machine gun in their hands.
One is a much more diminutive person, manipulating a wrist-held device of some sort.
One is a person crouched down, holding a sword in both hands.
The last has no weapon, but instead has energy radiating from the palms of their hands.

If you step into one of these chambers, they'll open, and in a short time, you'll be augmented with the armor and weaponry of your chosen loadout. On the other side of the armory is a shooting range. If you step into one of the booths, holographic enemies will appear for you to practice your new weaponry on. Beyond that, you might as well relax. Things will get crazy soon enough.]

Ugh...what do we do now?

[Sparks chimes in:] "Uhhhh, one sec, one second...!"

"OH! Gadget! Your Black Hat, is it still working?!"

Eh? [ Glances down at it, surprised. ] Yes! Yeah, it's working fine …

What do you need?

"Here! Here, right here!" [A waypoint appears on everybody's HUDs, just a few rooms away.] "It's the shuttle bay! If you haven't been locked out of the network yet, you can hack one of the enemy shuttles and use it to escape!"

O-Okay! Got it. We'll make our way over there.

Did that grenade blow up the teleporter. . .

[he curses, then turns on his heel]

You've only used it once, so you shouldn't be locked out just yet. Let's make sure our team is okay to walk, and then get a move on.

[ Y … Yeah, he sure is. Which is understandable—Aoko's on edge too, especially after Sparks' accidental nudge to her Issues. ]

We're gonna be fine.
