Scene: Outside broom closet; onboard the Star Generator 2.0 Roger Wilco has been assigned, by request, to janitorial duties onboard = the Star Generator. He is once again asleep inside his broom closet, once again unaware of = the events that have become of the rest of the crew. The dead body of a = guard is on its knees leaning against the door, a smoking hole in his = back. A multi-gunned contraption keeps popping in and out of the floor = to do scans for life forms to shoot at. The door opens and Roger yawns as the body falls to his feet. "What the.?" Says Roger and starts to walk out the door. "STOP." Says a female voice coming from the body,it sounds... = computerized, it reminds him of the voice that tells him to hang up and = try again when he tries to call his mother. It's coming from the = deceased fellows wristwatch. Wilco leans down and takes it. "Uh, hello?" "Don't go out that door. There's an automated turret waiting for you to = get into view." "What?" "The minute that turret sees you its going to put a large hole through = your abdomen." "Jeepers!" "I can temporarily disable it and give you some time. When I say 'go' = run for the elevator....... No, wait, your going to have to head = straight for the turret and remove its central networking hub." "Its what?" "GO!" The turret around the corner shoots some sparks and rises further out of = the floor and a panel drops off, revealing its insides. (Insert puzzle solution) The turret fizzes and lowers back into the ground. "Alright now go to the elevator, quickly." Says the female voice. "Wait, who is this? What's going on?" "Who I am is not important, the ship has been commandeered by Sariens = and a foreign computer AI. The crew is mostly dead. Now go to the = elevator." "What?!" "GO!" The watch clamps around Roger's wrist and begins giving him = painful electric shocks. "Ouch! I'm going!" Roger quickly enters the elevator and it begins to rise, just as two = Sariens come jogging around the corner. They position themselves at each = end of the janitors closet. They count to three and leap in front of it = and discharge their weapons through the closet door at full auto fire = for an excessive amount of time. By the time they finish there is not = much left of the door and they peak in. "Uh oh." Says one of them. The other presses a button on his helmet and speaks, "Subject is not in = calculated position, sir." Scene: Star Generator Command station The command station of the Star Generator is not in good shape, blast = holes and explosion damage litter the floor and walls. Sariens are quick = at work removing the last of the bodies. Elmo Pug stands at the controls. "What?! Fools! There is no way he could have escape, cameras show him = enter that closet! He could not have left without us knowing! SHUTUP AND = FIND HIM!" He presses the OFF button for the intercom, "Argh!....This is bad, I am = screwed, Oh boy... ... ... I need a drink." He sits down at the table = with a sigh, a bottle of brandy with the ever popular fish inside awaits = him. He takes a quick swig. "Pug? Why are you pouring disgusting liquor into your bloated face and = not finding and destroying Wilco like I asked?" Comes a voice over the = intercom, Elmo yelps and sprays unswallowed brandy over the table. "Um, just taking a, aheh, small break to think sir." "Elmo. Get down there yourself and find that blasted janitor before I = use the automatic defenses to disintegrate your head." "Sir! Yes, Sir!" Says Elmo and runs down the hallway towards the = elevator. Well there we go.=20 The mysterious computerlike voice is the previous atrificial = intelligence handler of the ship. SHOTIME, parody to system shocks = SHODAN. She instructs Roger on how to regain control of the ship.=20 Vohaul begins to use the Star Generator to blow up planets. Beatrice is captured. So, anyone like this as a plot to use for SQ7? |
