Tyden lies on the floor, trying to stop bleeding and waiting for help. "Sorry Jen, sorta got a problem here"

Charles attempts to grab Jens gun and shoot her with it

well nex, ive just been waiting for the others to post. ant do much else.

I want more than three. Ross and Retech are important to this, and it wouldn't hurt for Paul to post.

Ieyfura, feel free to post your background and stuff. You can play Planeteering or The Hegemony as well, but the first only has one other player and the second is a strategy game. Most other games you can only play when there are sessions, though. Dungeoneering is in the evening, 2025 isn't on again for a month or so, Soldiers of Napta is in the afternoons, and most of the rest is dead.

Well Nex, I actually did post an action for the last round, but my character wasn't mentioned in the post, so I left it there.

Sorry about the wait.

 

Earth, finding that the glove has unexpected properties, leaves the cryogenics hallway to help the wounded. Tyden, gasping, apologizes to his commander before passing out again as bloods seeps from the wound in his arm. Paul is simply lying on the ground, not moving. Charles tries to snatch away Jen's gun and is clubbed in the head, knocking him out. Exhausted and bleeding, tired now that the threat to her life is over, Jen collapses next to him.

 

Seemingly a world away from this mayhem, Zathe walks up and puts his hand on the A.I. screen. After a few moments, it begins to glow with a dim light.

 

"Greetings, my friend, Zathe. You must be wondering why I activated you. You and another maintenance A.I. were awakened to care for this section of the ship. The hull was breached by several Telduar vessels attempting an attack. However, they seem not to have anticipated the thickness of these walls, and their vessels barely broke through. Few made it into the ship alive, and were quickly dispatched by the Terran soldiers and combat A.I. such as yourself. The breaching ships that were still manned withdrew and left holes through which a good deal of oxygen escaped. I sealed off those areas, but not quickly enough. An officer named Jen and her unit were the only personnel to survive in this section, as the cryogenics chambers are always secure incase of such instances, with a backup oxygen supply. Unfortunately, while several maintenance A.I. were repairing the circuits damaged by the Telduar, the system suffered an overload. An electromagnetic pulse similar to that caused by Terran combat gloves, originating from a control panel in one of the cryogenics hallways, destroyed practically all ship electronics and most of the maintenance and combat A.I. Even the LO Drive was destroyed, and the ship is currently in the gravitational pull of a nearby star. I can activate the cryogenics hallway's backup LO Drive and have it collide with the nearest planet, but I cannot guarantee the safety or success of such a manuever. If you would please step back into the cryogenics hallway, I can jettison that section before we collide with the sun. Goodbye, and good luck, old friend."

Zathe, althought slightly confused as to why it was activated, even though it had no real connection to the ship, follows the advice, and then seals the door as it leaves.

Charles curses inwardly and attempts to awaken.

FFS! sorreh. next time, dont punch the wall with a comabt glove on :blink: anyways, i try to patch up TYden, then any other wounded, while yelling at the AI" did i cause that? if i did, then soorry! i didnt know that the combat glove would do that. im only a civilain. anyways, maybe you will survive, by getting out of here before the sun gets to close. bye bye, AI"
