[8:53][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:** The STAR TREK: PILGRIM theme plays! *
[8:53][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:** When we last left our heroes, a plea for aid from a science outpost evacuating under the threat of Tanausan incursion lead to an away mission on Suneater Outpost, the excavation site of a Chakki..
[8:54][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:ruin that was said to have been built atop an Orzaul ruin. There they met an old friend, Doctor Erwelle Bessley, a Catadai scientist that they had once rescued along with his young daughter. He..
[8:55][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:informed them that four of the scientists had gone deeper into worm tunnels in the hopes of proving their theory of deeper Orzaul ruins. After some traversal of the tunnels, the team finds the..
[8:55][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:four scientists in a massive, ancient server room who inform them that these are the plundered data stacks of a massive network of Orzaul neural patterns, but before they can explain in further..
[8:55][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:detail, Dali detected Tanausan life signs in the tunnels behind them…
[8:56][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:And now, the conclusion! *
[8:57][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-to the Doctor- Do we have a number?
[8:57][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*checks his weapons
[8:57][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--gets her rifle ready-- "Everyone find some cover.
[8:58][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Goes to find a nice rock to cover behind.
[8:58][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-checks her rifle and readies it as she locates cover- Any other exit out of this chamber
[8:58][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Beryxian] "Not behind the data stacks... we still might be able to recoverr something...
[8:58][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*ducking into cover, the relays to the HUDs of the others, the signatures of 10 Tanausans and 1 Catadai approaching
[8:58][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Trill] "There was another chamber behind this one, I think Jerry slipped in there while we were working on the server stacks.
[8:59][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--locates some cover, but not behind the data stacks.-
[8:59][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-readies herself drawing aim at the doorway
[8:59][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "They're coming through the worm tunnels. If we agitate them, they might attack our Tannie buddies.
[9:00][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Agreed..TGhor..your sound generator possibly
[9:00][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I can let out a burst of the sound before that.
[9:00][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"That is a worth a shot.
[9:00][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Yeah, exactly.
[9:00][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-nods to Marcus as well
[9:00][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "You all see the Catadai on sensors, right? It could be Bessley.
[9:00][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Perhaps but we would need to get through the imperial forces to try and aggitate the creatures.
[9:00][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He slips his speaker out and fildles with the options.
[9:01][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Or agitate them before the imperials get to us.
[9:01][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Hold TGhor ait for the order..skipper theymay have afiernedly as a hostag
[9:01][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Setting to maximum stun on her phaser Pistol
[9:02][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"To be sure the Imperial forces would likily just kill the creatures and I am not inclined to throw their lives away like that.
[9:02][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"understood.
[9:02][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "A straight fight then... works for me." *She grinned.
[9:02][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:SO we draw them into here..and stun the
[9:03][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--nods to Valkriss-
[9:03][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:If they are wearing their armor. Stunning will not be an option
[9:03][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "Assuming they don't just sit outside and wait for us to come out. It's a bit of a bottleneck.
[9:03][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:True...then firing disipline for the hostage's sak
[9:04][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Well no plan survives contact with an enem
[9:04][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"right hold fire until we figure out what we are dealing with.
[9:04][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Nods.* "No shooty... for now.
[9:04][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The trackers on their HUDs noted the group getting closer and closer...
[9:05][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"i am sure the Imperials will want to offer us a chance to surrender anyway.
[9:05][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Why come back..if they were theones who raided the servers
[9:05][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dali starts configuring her scanner to identify explosives as a primary alert indicator.
[9:05][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"that is an interesting question.
[9:05][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "Maybe it's not the servers they want. The Pilgrim's right out there in orbit.
[9:06][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:and they are such fans of ours these day
[9:06][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"lets deal with these people so we can get back to the ship.
[9:06][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"They can buy t-shirts and action figures like everyone else... no autographs.
[9:06][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Their HUDs note the life signs getting to right outside the door... then stopping.
[9:06][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Skipper we should get some eyes on the chamber behind us..so we know our option
[9:07][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"They are holding...
[9:07][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Trill] "We can head back there... we're useless in a fight anyway.
[9:07][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The three scientists nodded vigorously.
[9:08][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--nods to the scientist-- "right head to the chamber and report back what you find back there.
[9:08][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Keep your heads down
[9:08][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "I'll go with them, since I have a phaser." *She winked and ushered the scientists into the back chamber.
[9:08][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--nods to Orestes-
[9:09][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--crouches behind cover aiming at the door-
[9:09][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Without warning, something spherical and metallic popped out of the doorway, clinking on the floor.
[9:09][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-focuses her aim at the doorway clsoes her eyes and ducks under her cover
[9:09][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Grenade!" *She ducked down.
[9:10][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Setting to widen her beam, she holds behind cover
[9:10][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li stays behind cover, his back against it.
[9:10][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"take cover" --she ducked down-
[9:10][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*took cuver from grenade
[9:10][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(All roll please
[9:11][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Flash flash cycle optics
[9:12][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The group managed to duck down in time, save for T'Ghor whose eyes are rendered temporarily useless by the intense flash that fills the room before soldiers began to pour out to grab cover.
[9:12][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--shakes her head as T'Ghor is blinded.-
[9:13][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Can't see shit!
[9:13][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Cycle optics!
[9:13][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:'Take cover and hold position Tghor
[9:13][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"=Still- can't see shit after cycle.
[9:13][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "I know, I saw your last phaser range score!
[9:13][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-her hud cycles her visors optics as she resdies to repel!
[9:13][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-rises up and aims once more
[9:13][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--cycles her optics in case the Tannies try that again as she raises up to lay down some suppressing fire.-
[9:14][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*darkenes her visor, and works on sensor HUD
[9:14][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-fires on the Impie goons as they move for cover
[9:15][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--pew pew pew-
[9:15][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*As the light finally fades, they would see the Tanausans falling neatly and efficiently into position to take up their little corner of the room.
[9:15][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(Roll if you're shooting I guess lol
[9:15][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*returns fire
[9:15][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li peaks around just enough to return fire.
[9:17][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The group opens fire on the Tanausans getting into position, with T'Pang hitting one in the chest and causing them to falter on their way. Valkriss and Li also score hits, but being on stun they..
[9:17][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dali is sticking just the gun out, using the HUD to target from behind cover, instending to use the wide beam to suppress
[9:18][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:did little save for keeping those three that they hit from getting far from the door. As Aquila fires his weapon, he feels an intense heat suddenly pour off of it even through his gloves, and he..
[9:19][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:gets the impression that he has only seconds to get it away from him before something bad happens.* (Roll Aquila
[9:19][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*he throws the rifle towards the enemy
[9:20][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The rifle clatters to the feet of one of the Tanausans, and he has barely enough time to shove his squadmate out of the way before it explodes violently, sending bits and pieces of Tanny all..
[9:20][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"They have the jamming technology be careful!
[9:20][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:over. The others stare in shock for only a moment before they try to recover and open fire on the group!* (Defense rolls
[9:20][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*he draws his pistol
[9:21][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I thought we were keeping to stun?
[9:22][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang fires on Tannie positions as she looks for possible hostages among the group-
[9:22][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-snarls a very vile curse for her very amateur mistake and resets to kill
[9:22][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"If they are in armor you cannot stun them.
[9:22][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-then fires on the Impies saying to Marcus- Copy that
[9:22][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Stun wont work, set weaposn to kill but check your fire, they may have a hostage.
[9:22][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Yeah, but captain said hostage!
[9:22][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"And she ordered stun.
[9:22][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He changes to kill after the order.
[9:22][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Set to kill T'Ghor
[9:23][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Yeah, I -heard- it.
[9:23][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li scrunches his nose and sets his phaser to kill.
[9:23][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Shoot
[9:25][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--frowns as some unidentifiable chunk of blue meat lands next to her-
[9:27][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Li peeked out of cover just a little too far to watch the explosion and took a shot to the shoulder, causing his suit alert to go off in his ears that he was compromised. A bit of rock came off..
[9:28][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:of the cover that Dali was crouched behind, landing hard on her knee and causing the plate to crack.
[9:28][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor pops out and starts blasting on kill now that he has the order.
[9:29][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Yev
[9:30][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dali tries to be a hotshot, staing on HUD, and on widened stun she shoots at the catadai... shoot the hostage, get them out of position to be shot if they are non-combatant.
[9:30][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The Catadai was not in sight.
[9:30][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-fires at the imperials now set to kill..mindful of the hostage should he or she appear
[9:31][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li does his best to try to mend his suit.
[9:31][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*would hold till they appeared
[9:31][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--lays down as heavy of suppressing fire as she can to cover the others to give them a better chance of hitting something without being hit.-
[9:31][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*For reference, seven Tanausans had entered the room and one was currently splattered.
[9:32][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*fires on another target
[9:33][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(rolls for pews
[9:36][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*T'Ghor and T'Pang's combined suppressive fire successfully keeps the Tanausans from reacting. Meanwhile, Valkriss was on the war path, firing repeatedly into the armour of one of the Tanausan..
[9:38][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:soldiers until she was able to break through and make blueberry pie on the inside of his visor. Aquila's shot goes wide in the meantime, instead hitting one of the ancient server stacks and causing.
[9:38][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:it to shudder and begin to collapse to the side.
[9:38][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor cheers as he watches a tannie get turned to pie and the other ones cowering, now trying to pick his shots to rack up kills of his own.
[9:38][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:[Aquila] Jupiters ass...
[9:39][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--cringes as the data stack starts to collapse, gives Marcus a glare.-
[9:39][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Yev...that'll have to do
[9:40][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--shakes her head as she continues with her spray and pray tactic.-
[9:40][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-selects a new target and fires
[9:40][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li pops out and fires.
[9:40][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Li!... You are still venting, do you require aid?
[9:41][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Yes...as soon as it's clear
[9:42][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*dips out to fire again
[9:42][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*With T'Ghor and T'Pang's awesome suppressive fire, our heroes get another action round!* (Rolls
[9:43][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Takes the moment to ad Li's O2 level to be on HUD for team, while looking for the nearest to him or a path to get to him.
[9:44][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--looks over at Dahlia as if anticipating that she is about to do something unwise-
[9:46][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*T'Pang and Valkriss each dome a Tanausan simultaneously in a beautiful synchronised dance, while T'Ghor and Aquila somehow managed to both miss the same target as the Tanausan in question dove out..
[9:47][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:of the way. Li pinged a shot off one of the remaining soldiers' armour, and suddenly the very room seemed to shake with a woman's bellow of,* "ENOUGH!
[9:47][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Enough? You guys started this war!
[9:48][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*That is a trigger for Dali to dart across the room to Li, intending to duck behind his cover.
[9:48][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--looks around for the source of the voice, she stops firing as she does so.-
[9:48][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li remains still, controlling his breathing as best he can to give Dali time to assist.
[9:48][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Suddenly, Doctor Bessley was shoved out through the doorway, his arms raised and a look of fear on his white face. They could see bruises already forming around his eyes.
[9:48][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Fuckin'..." *He growls.
[9:49][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-draws bead onher next target but holds fire as T'Pang does...coming very close to firing
[9:49][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--turns her weapon on the new figure coming through the door.-
[9:49][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor aims at a random tannie as well.
[9:49][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*A figure in Tanausan officer's armour appeared just after Bessley, their gun pointed at his back.* "Hold your fire," *she commanded, the voice from her suit amplified.
[9:50][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--looks ar her people-- "Hold your fire.
[9:51][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-aims now right at the officer
[9:51][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dali is more concerned with seeing to a quickly to be suffoccating officer than fireing.
[9:52][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Tanausan] "Captain T'Pang, it is indeed an honour to finally meet a woman of your standing. Do forgive the necessity of this all; it is dreadfully hard to get a hold of you these days.
[9:52][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*lowere dhis weapon
[9:52][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"We have subspace comm you know?
[9:53][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Tanausan] "We've tried that. You denied our Admiral's most generous offer over them, after all. But that's neither here nor there.
[9:53][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--lowers her weapon but keeps it at the ready.-
[9:54][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dali is working to seal Li's suit, and will share her O2 to him
[9:54][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Tanausan] "But, where are my manners? Captain Bethalia Qil of the Tanausan Imperial Navy.
[9:55][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Normally this is where my people might respond with it being agreeable to make your aquantence...but it is not, so i wont.
[9:56][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-smirks at that from T'Pang as she keeps her aim on the good captain
[9:56][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "It's unfortunate that you've been indoctrinated into your way of thinking... had you been born into the Imperium I am certain you'd have made an excellent servant.
[9:57][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Admiral Nil made the mistake of thinking that way as well, look where it got him.
[9:58][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "Nil was a fossil, a relic whose days of glory were far beyond him. He should have stayed in retirement, it would have saved him so many embarassments at your hands.
[9:58][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"But, enough of the small talk, how about you tell me what you want?
[9:59][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "The only thing worth anyone's time here, Captain. You." *She nudged Bessley with her weapon.* "I have an entire outpost under my control right now and guns pointed at your ship.
[9:59][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "There's only one way out, T'Pang. And that's with me.
[10:01][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang stops and looks around at her people then back to the officer-- "And naturally I have to rely on your word that once you have what you want you will leave wihtout harming an of the others?
[10:02][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "Something like that, yes.
[10:02][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--looks at the Imperial forces as if considering her options.-
[10:03][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*A text alert from Orestes popped up on everyone's HUD:* "Found something, might be big, need help if you're not all dead.
[10:04][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The Imperial forces had been cut in half and they now outnumbered them.
[10:04][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Taps out something on his wrist padd.
[10:06][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--looks over at Valkriss, giving her a nod-
[10:07][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*When done making Li's suit spaceworthy again, she adds the marker for the catadai now identified as friend Dr Beasley and the tanausians all as targets, for the team HUD displays
[10:07][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-nods back to her captain keeping the officer covered as she does so
[10:08][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "So, what'll it be, T'Pang? I'm running out of patience." *She raised the weapon to the back of Bessley's head.
[10:08][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'pang stands and drops her rifle as she begins to move toward the Tannie Officer.-
[10:08][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Captain...you can't...-protests
[10:08][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Get my people out of here Valkriss.
[10:08][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "I'm so glad that even in your backwards world, there is still room for reason.
[10:09][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Right, i don't see any other way.
[10:09][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-snarls - Yes Ma'a
[10:09][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-to Qil- If sheis harmed in any way..
[10:09][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"We'll bite your throats out and shit down the hole.
[10:10][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-keeps Qil coverd and smirks at T'Ghor;s comment
[10:10][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor punches something into his controls and turns it on.
[10:11][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--continues to move closer to Qil and Doctor Bessely, when close enough T'Pang will dive for Doctror Bessely trying to push his aside to give her team an opening.-
[10:11][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "What exactly would you do about that?
[10:11][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(Roll T'Pang!
[10:11][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*T'Pang and Bessley go tumbling to the floor, giving them that opening!
[10:11][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-fires immediately
[10:12][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor raises his rifle and starts trying to nail the tannie cap'n.
[10:12][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li pops out and opens fire.
[10:12][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*fires after t'pang had cleared
[10:12][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(Rolls!
[10:14][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The Tanausan captain took three loads to the chest and went down, while T'Ghor's shot hit the wall just seconds after.
[10:14][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Cover her
[10:14][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dali moves to a better firing position, but holds to cover the captain from any directly targeting her
[10:14][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Darn it." *He starts firing at the other tannies.
[10:15][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-fires again into Qil since she is closest to TPang and doctor
[10:15][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--grabs Doctor Bessely and moves for cover before the Tannie soldier recover their wits.-
[10:15][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The remaining soldiers popped up to try and fire back... only to find their weapons were not doing the literal one thing they were designed for. With some panic they ducked back into cover.
[10:16][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Hey, it worked!
[10:16][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:=^= "Love you, Orestes! You get a free trip to my booze cabinet!
[10:16][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--Calls out to the Imperial troops.-- "Now is your one time offer to surrender. I suggest you take it.
[10:17][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] =/\= "You're not just gonna love me, you're gonna want to get matching tattoos with what we managed to scrape off the hard drives.
[10:17][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:=^= "You'll tell us all once we police the tannies up.
[10:17][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Keeps his gun trained on a tannie he finds particularly shootable despite it being in full armour.
[10:18][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "If you... urgh... desert your posts, you'll be hanged!" *She barked at the soldiers.
[10:18][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Moves out toward the downed Qil, to scan and see if they are able to be saved.
[10:19][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"I'm a doctor, let us see to your wounded." *calmly pleading
[10:19][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Qil was still behind the confused Tanausan soldiers. Should Dali try to approach, one would break out of their shock and try to tackle her down.
[10:19][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Dammit Doctor!
[10:19][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-fires at the charging Tannie to protect the doctor
[10:20][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*aquila would shoot that tanuasan
[10:20][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T"Ghor flips to stun and tries to nail the tannie to at elast slow it down... and not kill dahlia if he hits her.
[10:20][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dodging physical attack
[10:20][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(Rolls to shoot the tackler
[10:21][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--leaves Doctor Bessely under cover and rushes over to cover Dahlia-
[10:21][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*With Aquila's weapon on vaporise and T'Ghor backing him up, the Tanausan was burnt into ashes and air before he could get to Dali.
[10:21][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Mmm, smells like Dad's cookin'.
[10:22][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*On seeing this, the remaining Tannies that could still move did just that and bolted for the worm tunnels, leaving Qil and the dead behind.
[10:22][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang goes to raise her rifel, then realizes she had dropped it a while ago, so she draws her side arm-
[10:23][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Want me to sic the worms on 'em?
[10:23][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-blinks-...they...ra
[10:23][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Re-initiates the attempt to get to Qil and stabilize (and sedate) her as a prisoner.
[10:24][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"No let them go..We will track them down later.
[10:24][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Orestes said she's discovered something big, captain.
[10:24][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Qil] "Traitors... cowards...." *She was still murmuring before slipping unconscious for Dali to treat.
[10:24][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Do we have contact with the ship?
[10:24][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Captain..I can stay with the docto
[10:24][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:we should see what the science team and orestes foun
[10:25][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor checks his HUD to see if there is a connection to the pilly.
[10:25][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"I go see what the science team found, Lieutenant T'Ghor you are with me. The rest of you mind the prisoner.
[10:26][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Comms connection is really unstable down here captain, I doubt we can reach the pilgrim." *He then nods.* "Coming.
[10:26][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Valkriss, The kit I brought, there is gear there for taking out wounded. Stretchers and EVA sleaves. Can you get it? *she says as she works.
[10:26][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--T'Pang heads into the back chamber, pausing by Qil. She looks down-- "At least Nil was an actual challenge.
[10:27][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-nods and goes and feteches it for her and comes back with it for her
[10:27][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Damn, captain, ice cold.
[10:27][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Wish Nil laid there uselessly.
[10:27][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-slings her rfile and begins to open it
[10:27][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--just heads back to find Orestes.-
[10:27][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Quietly to Valkriss* "She can be bound, and held inside a sleave and anyone seeing won't see her hands bound.
[10:28][DOIC6]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Walks with T'pang.
[10:28][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-nods and gets out binders toplace onthe fallen officer
[10:28][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Bessley] *He picked himself up with a soft groan.
[10:28][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Over her sir -motions him over to the doctor
[10:28][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--in the backrooms T"pang looks for the science team.-
[10:29][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-secures Qil's bindings very securely
[10:29][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Bessley] *He limped over.* "I'm afraid we won't be safe for long, there were a lot more in the outpost. They may be getting reinforcements.
[10:29][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Challenge or not, likely valuable prisoner." *she will look after Bessley as soon as Qil is stable and secure on a stretcher.
[10:29][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-looks over to Marcus at that- We need to prepare for more inbound
[10:30][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] *She was standing in the middle of a circular console, waving T'Pang down.* "They didn't get it all, Captain!" *She beamed.
[10:30][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"No fuckin' way!
[10:30][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"What exactly did you find?
[10:30][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I think she means... she found living Orzaul. Kinda.
[10:31][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--looks at Orestes for confirmation-
[10:31][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "Not exactly. The neural patterns were all ripped and wiped, but what I do have is a version of the framework that their virtual environment ran on.
[10:31][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Shit, it's something!
[10:31][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*Excitedly moves on over.
[10:31][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "Think the house after the resident's been evicted.
[10:31][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Orestes made room for him.
[10:31][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"It's a -treasure trove- of cultural information, I'm sure.
[10:31][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Why would the Imperium want this information?
[10:32][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*he nodded
[10:32][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He started reading through the data.* "Possibly knowledge of the gateways.
[10:32][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*and wen tot makgin preperations
[10:32][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"The Orzaul knew how to run them.
[10:32][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"that is data we can not allow the Imperium to get their hands on under any circumstances.
[10:33][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "It's very possible. There's a lot we don't know about the Orzaul. They went extinct before the last war even began, from our estimations.
[10:33][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Maybe have Li and Ish rig some tripwires usingour grenades..back up the tunnel some? and rig the closest cover inside the chamber here
[10:33][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"if we can not secure it then we need to destroy it.
[10:33][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"It will be done commande.
[10:34][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Hopefulyl it won't come to that, captain.
[10:34][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"You tried to estimate how much data there is, Orestes? Can we fit it on a drive?
[10:34][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "We may need to physically remove it. I don't know if even our technology is capable of holding this amount of information.
[10:35][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Might be for the best, then... We should get Li to make full scans of these data columns so we can reproduce them if we need one to read the physical drive.
[10:36][DOIC6]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin nodded and hurried off
[10:37][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li heads over with Istrin to prepare the traps, having stayed in one place to let the oxygen levels stabilize.
[10:38][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*They could hear a faint rumbling from far overhead.
[10:38][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"...What was that?
[10:39][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"That might not be good.
[10:39][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*He pulls out his tricorder to get full scans of the data column to hopefully have a means of reproduction eventually.
[10:39][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"I advise cover from falling rock be a priority.
[10:39][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Lieutenant T'Ghor and Orestes, continue your analysis of the ..." --pauses as shr rumbling starts.-
[10:39][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"what now?
[10:40][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dali looks to get Bessley and Qil as well as herself protected if ceiling dropped pieces on them
[10:40][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "Dunno, a Tremors size rock worm?
[10:40][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"I need a few minutes but I'll have a full scan!
[10:41][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(Roll to set traps
[10:42][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"We plan ahead, that way we don't do anything right now.
[10:43][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Utilising the grenades they had brought in, the team was able to devise some cleverly hidden traps in the tunnel leading up to the doorway.
[10:43][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-snarls- The outpost i presume.
[10:45][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Bessley] "It could be fighting in the outpost. Your people trying to save us, maybe?
[10:45][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-nods- Very possibl
[10:46][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*chuckles to herself* "I'd bet Thunderpunching
[10:46][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:He does not do idle well -smirks
[10:46][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "Not with Tannies crawling around, no.
[10:47][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:**Another rumble from above, and now they could see increased movement from the rocks worms in the tunnels.*
[10:47][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--looks at T'Ghor and Orestes-- "Continue your analysis, focus on ways to secure this data in case we lose control of these caves.
[10:48][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Um..the vibrations do not sit well with our worm friend
[10:48][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Already on it, Captain.
[10:48][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--turns and heads out into the main room-
[10:48][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"No they do not.
[10:48][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"what the hell is going on now?
[10:48][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-to Dahli- How is she-nods at Qil
[10:49][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Just as T'Pang asked this, there was the sound of a grenade trap going off in the tunnel.
[10:49][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Stable, and out.
[10:49][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:We arent entirely sure..it might be Teeth.taking pot shots at the Tannies above groun
[10:49][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Here we g
[10:49][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Doctor Bessley, you should likely join your team in the antechamber.
[10:50][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"More imperials?
[10:50][DOIC]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*There was an enraged chirring noise as they could see a group of worms closing in on them.
[10:50][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--goes to recover her rifle-
[10:50][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Oh boy..Idint think of tha
[10:50][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Bessley] "...I tend to agree." *He hurried to the back room.
[10:51][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"well this is inconvenient.
[10:51][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:If we hold fire..will they still not see us as a threat
[10:52][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*A massive worm, at least two meters long and a meter thick, came CHARGING through the doorway, acid already dripping from its maw in a frenzy!
[10:52][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:...o
[10:52][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"After our minefield? depends on their intelligence... I doubt it.
[10:52][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Ettore] "...Yeah.
[10:52][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Definitley a threat.
[10:52][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-aims at it
[10:53][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Apologies.
[10:53][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*he aims at the worm
[10:53][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Switching to max power, she aims to defend organic lives.
[10:53][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor keeps scanning.* "...You suddenly feel hungry or is it just me?
[10:53][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*It reeled back, clearly about to spit at the group...* (Reflex rolls!
[10:53][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Valkriss, ever the warrior maiden, found herself with a split second opening!
[10:53][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:((was under cover from rock falls, with Qil btw)
[10:54][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*aquila is going to push the captain out of the way granting her a teamwork
[10:54][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(Free action and roll for Valkriss before chaos ensues :) 
[10:54][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-fires directly into its maw at max power
[10:55][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Valkriss' shot ripped through the giant worm's cheek and caused it to reel back, spitting acid at the wall instead of at the group!
[10:56][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Nice shot
[10:56][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Thank you
[10:56][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*saves teamwork since klingon fixed it
[10:57][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Li help the doctor get the prisoner back to the others
[10:57][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--grabs her tricorder.-- "Lets see if this ultra sonic trick works when they are already aggitated.
[10:57][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li nods and heads over to Dali.
[10:57][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Two smaller (but still technically giant) worms came in after them, one sporting a big gash in its side that was leaking acidic fluid that bubbled on the groupd as it dragged itself along.
[10:57][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Good idea" *preparing to move
[10:58][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:They are driving the worms down on us
[10:58][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--moves back away from the incoming worms as she adjust the tricortder.-
[11:00][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*As the worms moved on into the chamber, our heroes were free to act!
[11:00][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*fired on the injured worm
[11:00][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:We have to drive them away from the rear chamber! -fired on the biggun she wounded
[11:00][DOIC6]Istrin@the5of43:*Istrin did his best to avoid the worms and fired back
[11:01][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--adjusted her tricorder to emit an ultra sonic pulse.-
[11:01][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li fires on one of the worms.
[11:01][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Quips at the results of the worms receiving attacks from the heros as she moves the prisoner* "Broke into the wrong Goddamn rec room, didnt ya you bastard!
[11:02][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:(Rolls please
[11:08][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*As T'Pang emitted the pulse, the worms shrieked and recoiled, giving them another opening. Valkriss manages to take another chunk out of the biggun's side, while Istrin and Li focused on the..
[11:08][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:wounded worm and were able to critically wound it, acid blood spewing as it screamed in pain.
[11:09][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:*T'Ghor listened as he scanned.* "Are they winning?
[11:10][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*teamwork
[11:12][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Just barely too late, Aquila noticed a small, blinking light through the missing chunk in one of the worms. His shot slams into it, exploding the worms and showering him in acidic blood and flesh..
[11:12][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:that began to sizzle through his armour.
[11:13][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Neptunes Testicles....
[11:13][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Li! do you have a fire extinguisher..we need a base gel on his armor
[11:14][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "Sounds like someone's having fun, at least.
[11:14][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Uhhhh...not here
[11:14][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Doc
[11:14][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*aquial looked at the dirt
[11:15][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dahli would scramble for something in her suitcase sized preparations to counter acid
[11:15][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Drop! -moves to im to begins to kick up dirt and glovefuls of it
[11:15][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*he drops to the dirt
[11:15][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"That's something..>
[11:16][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:makessure she just uses the dirt
[11:16][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Aquila could hear alarms going off in his ears and alerts on his HUD as he tried to neutralise the acid.* (Roll
[11:16][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Think we'll be able to remake this? If we could read all this data... hell, we could make gateways of our own.
[11:16][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Water
[11:16][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Water rations
[11:17][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"We need to get him out of that armor.
[11:17][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Can't touch the armor yet captian.
[11:17][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Some of the acid began to foam, but there was not enough dirt on the floor in the Orzaul chamber. There appeared to be much more at the doorway by the tunnel.
[11:17][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Heis covered in the aci
[11:17][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--tosses her bottle of water to Valkriss-
[11:18][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*aquila headed for the opening
[11:18][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-goes withhim offering cover
[11:18][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-with tpangs water bottle
[11:18][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "Maybe in a century or two. It's insane they went extinct even with this level of technology.
[11:18][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:STay on the worms
[11:19][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--covers the worms-
[11:19][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:*Li continues to open fire on the worms.
[11:19][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Pulls her entire supply of alkaline phosphates and an emergency EVA sleeve like the prisoner is in and chases toward Marcus
[11:19][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*The worms had exploded, there were none in the chamber at present.
[11:19][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-does what she can to help Marcus as they reach the doorway dirt
[11:20][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Suit is at 50 percent most of the armor is depleted.
[11:20][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Gonna try and save your suit as best we ca
[11:20][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:*he started to dig into the and
[11:20][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:'Yeah... How did they piss off the dark this much.
[11:21][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-diggy diggy dirt
[11:21][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Unless we neutralize the outside the armor break off will just burn me anyway
[11:21][DOIC6]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:*Playing Irushey seemed to work, and within a few moments the acid had been neutralised, leaving its mark.
[11:21][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Doc has something..hjere she comes
[11:21][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"The dirt is a good idea... this will help, but i don't know if it will be enough.
[11:21][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Look slike it is slowin
[11:22][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Suit at 43 percent integrtity but acid it nuetralized.
[11:22][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Noticed the worms were foaming where they were injured and the acid tocuhed the dirt.
[11:22][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-sighs relieved - no burns
[11:22][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--raises an eyebrow-- "a very potent acid..
[11:23][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:Doc? he okay? -looks to her
[11:23][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Likely so it can dig through the rock.
[11:23][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "I don't think they did. They went extinct before the last war... maybe even before the Zhyx swore allegiance to the Dark.
[11:23][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"The soild is likely very alkaline due to the byproduct of thier digestion.
[11:23][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Yeah... but what else could cause the extinction of a civilization of their level?
[11:24][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:*Dock will go over it and check suit integrity, patch kit in hand, before giving prognosis
[11:24][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"No breaches detected Commander.

[11:24][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "Maybe someday we'll be able to ask them, if the Tanausans still have their neural patterns anyway.
[11:25][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:What is the status back there Skip -nods to the chamber the science team isin
[11:25][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Ancestors, I hope so.
[11:26][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--looks back toward the antechamber-- "ill go find out.
[11:26][DOIC6]T'Pang@Demoncheru:--heads back to check on the nerds-
[11:26][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-waits for the Doc's word on Marcus
[11:27][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"Do you two have anything to report?
[11:28][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"I don't detect any leaks.. but I wouldn't get exposed again. Your suit is thrashed hon. Don't get shot, or even bump into a wall too hard.
[11:28][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Scans are just complete, captain.
[11:28][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"We got the full thing scanned.. ready to physically remove the data, if ordered.
[11:28][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Orestes] "If only I had more space for data... I have as much as I can grab, but it's basically just the oreo on top of the Cookies and Cream Your Pants Ice Cream Cake.
[11:29][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"well we are out of time here, we need to head back to the surface before thing get any more out of hand
[11:30][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Beryxian] "Excuse me!" *The scientist jogged back into frame, waving.* "We found something else that may be significant.
[11:30][DOIC6]Dalliance@Gonz.:"Commander, i'd suggest shoveling the dirt onto the icor left behind where we need to pass over it. It could still pose a problem.
[11:30][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Oh? What is it?
[11:30][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-nods and rises- Ish...Li..give me a ahnd we need to cover the remaining icor with dir
[11:31][DOIC6]Aquila@Captain_Rien:"Armor did its job then.
[11:31][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Beryxian] "A plaque, we think. Written Orzaul language! We just need to translate it.

[11:31][DOIC6]Zorin Li@ClingingMar:Yes ma'am
[11:31][DOIC5]T'Pang@Demoncheru:"can you remove the plaque, or scan it. We really need to get moving.
[11:31][DOIC6]Valkriss@Isis:-goes to help Ish and Li shovel enough dirt to give them a safe room to move around
[11:31][DOIC6]Istrin@the5of43:Yes commander
[11:32][DOIC5]T'Ghor@bulgariandragon:"Let me see... 
[11:32][DOIC5]DGM Apocalypse@liorexu:[Beryxian] "We've taken scans, it's far too large to move through the tunnels.
