Topic: Destiny's Flight - A Serenity RPG Subject: As promised
Moving to the door opposite the hatch Pops found it closed and the emergency inner doors were closed as well. Pops pulled out his scanner and repeated the process he used on the outer hatch. Looking from the Doc to Wolf,
"Ok bullet get yourself over here, likely we'll be need'n them big strong arms of yours over here to get these doors open."
“Ok Popsicle hold your on to your diminished gentiles” I replied to him as I moved to help him, joined by Wyatt we watched as the old man punched in the codes to the door. Without any suspense the heavy decompression door slid silently back into a safe position and the main doors opened. More flecks of paint danced in the light of headlamps.
Before the group a corridor filled with space frost and more floating flecks, three doors to other rooms and a circular lift that was clearly closed. Wolf could see that door to his immediate left looked dented, as if something big and heavy had hit it from the other side.
"That can't be good," Wyatt points to the bulging door. "Coulda been explosives, maybe?"
“Or explosive decompression, we saw evidence of that possibility in the cargo hold,” Wolf spoke up. as he scanned the area the crew now found themselves in.
Walking confidently further into the corridor, Wyatt turns back to his team, "All right, people. You know the drill. Get the back-up power on if ya can. We'll track down the life sign. Be careful. I know we're on the clock, so to speak, but nothin's worth yer lives."
"Well unless you all have powered scanners it's going to be a bit difficult to to get through them doors without power. So whatd'ya want to do first? I could open these doors for y'all to search the rooms or you can stand in the dark whilst Wolf and I go up a deck and see if we can get that backup running. Might be safer to check that while you're still suited up in case there's sumpthin funny in there... Once we're up a deck Wolf and I'll let you know when we're about to throw the switch so you can be ready for it. Hate to have ya caught unawares if a bunch of bells and alarms start blaring. ...Doc, looks like the medical room is up there too, so you might want to check it out whilst Bul.. ah..Wolf puts his smarts to work cranking over that backup. By the way Wolf, you by chance bring a reader with you that you get a copy of them deck layouts from Alex?"
Fenris could not help but smile to himself as Pop went back to calling him Wolf instead of Alaxis’s nickname of Bullet. Coming from her was ok but from Pops for some reason not so much.
"What happens to all these paint flakes if you get life support back on? Will they get sucked into the air system and ruin it? Just drop to the floor and cover everything with a thin coat of paint? Would that damage anything we need? Or our suits? Is there anything we need to cover before heating this place up?" This from Alex.
Peering at the schematics again, Wyatt points to the backup generators on Deck 1. "That's on our way t' the life sign, so we'll all head there t'gether." Looking towards Wolf, the captain reiterates Alex's questions, "Any concern 'bout this paint?"
“Honestly not sure Cap’n, could be paint, could be explosive residue, could be left over paper scrapes. I’d advise even after we re-compress her we keep our suits on.”
"I don' want t' spend a bunch o' time opening doors when our primary concern was the life sign," Sung returns to the mission. "We can address the rest o' the ship once we know what's what with what caught our attention t' begin with. 'Sides, I would like t' see the ship's logs 'fore we go opening potential hazards. So, no more opening doors but fer the rooms we absolutely need t' get into. Let's get them generators up, then get int' that room," Wyatt points to the room near the head on Deck 1, "then engineering an' the bridge. Unless somethin' comes up t' change the plan."
“Pops, Fox, your with me lets get to engineering” Looking to Wyatt as he moved out he gave the Captain an old Browncoat sign of good luck. A wink to Alexis and the three of them were on their way…...
