[Scott (Felix)]: Welcome to the Dark Star Adventure cast, where the stars are cold, the void is endless, and danger lurks in every shadow.
[Scott (Felix)]: Out here, trust is a gamble, and survival is never guaranteed.
[Scott (Felix)]: A nice adventure cast.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I was told to shoot a thing, and I won't shoot a thing now!
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: It has drones come a call, and it doesn't hesitate to pull out of the sky.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I don't think that this guy is going to wait for me to make a phone call.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Nick's takes a breath and pops in her ear buds.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She likes music when she works.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Gravity well.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Redshift revelry.
[Scott (Felix)]: Now let's get out there and hack the galaxy.
[Star Master Jeff]: The crew of the scapegoat is but a few days into their journey and rewarded themselves with a well-earned rest.
[Star Master Jeff]: The spike drive course is set, and they are under way to the hidden Prometheon station deep within the sector.
[Star Master Jeff]: Well, Fisa was tough, and the break is welcome.
[Star Master Jeff]: Routed around the long table in the kitchen.
[Star Master Jeff]: They pass around a bottle of whiskey while listening to Robert's favorite playlist and swapping war stories from their past.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: And he says,
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I had to choose Bunga.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Bunga!
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Well, we have 10 months.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Do you tell us your story?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'll tell you guys mine.
[Scott (Felix)]: Shit, man, man.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Sure, I'll tell you mine.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Haley Pores feels the glass of whiskey and slides it on over.
[Scott (Felix)]: I pick up the glass of whiskey and fix.
[Scott (Felix)]: And find, find anyone here?
[Scott (Felix)]: I got a warning though, it's not all rainbows and sunshine.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Oh, no, no, that sounds like a good one.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Let's have it, let's hear it.
[Scott (Felix)]: I knocked back the whiskey.
[Scott (Felix)]: Send on myself from my chair and wait back.
[Scott (Felix)]: of a brother P.D.
[Scott (Felix)]: is a journalist, made a name for himself exposing corporal vise and scribes.
[Scott (Felix)]: And one day OmniTek, hopped up on his radar, turns out they were buying up prisoner contracts like they were stock options, and man once they signed on that dotted line, those poor bastards were never heard from again.
[Scott (Felix)]: He worked himself to the bone for months on that story, even goes so far as infiltrating OmniTek itself to uncover what he could.
[Scott (Felix)]: Finally, he learned that the proof he needed was stored way up in their orbital data vault, but no sooner did he learn this?
[Scott (Felix)]: Then here the entire prisoner operation was moving off world, vault and all, and he was devastated.
[Scott (Felix)]: This repeat is one shot before the vault disappeared to God's knows where, to expose Omnitek and break the story of his career.
[Scott (Felix)]: So of course, he came to me for help, and well, I do anything for my little brother.
[Scott (Felix)]: Here's how I went down.
[Scott (Felix)]: I started to work putting together a little proof of the job.
[Scott (Felix)]: There's me, obviously, the one who actually knows at a crack system.
[Scott (Felix)]: A real ghost to this nicks silent popper over and she moved faster than anyone I've ever seen.
[Scott (Felix)]: She had instincts to match.
[Scott (Felix)]: A muscle on the job was going to be jet the Viper Harlow.
[Scott (Felix)]: He was all nerves and gunmetal and he was just looking for an excuse to shoot something.
[Scott (Felix)]: And finally, Petty, not a little brother.
[Scott (Felix)]: Idealist journalist, former field medic who proved himself in the Doppler skirmishes, and the only one of us who still believed in a happy ending.
[Scott (Felix)]: Well, I always get the crew together.
[Scott (Felix)]: Petty worked his contacts.
[Scott (Felix)]: He greets some palms.
[Scott (Felix)]: Man, should get seats for us all on a refueling shuttle down for the vault.
[Scott (Felix)]: And he can always do that.
[Scott (Felix)]: Make friends with anyone and get what he wanted.
[Scott (Felix)]: So it's the night of the job, right?
[Scott (Felix)]: Shuttle launches, nice and quiet.
[Scott (Felix)]: No arms, no warning.
[Scott (Felix)]: We're getting ready, we suit up, check in our gear, and as I'm sliding my laser pistol into my holster, I finally realize.
[Scott (Felix)]: And we're about to break into the most secure data vaulted orbit, with other bad boots, a few laser pistols and good intentions.
[Scott (Felix)]: It was going to be one hell of a night.
[Star Master Jeff]: So in this very special episode of the Darkstar Adventurecast, all of our actors will be playing different characters.
[Star Master Jeff]: Brian, you have the honor of playing Felix's younger brother, PD Champlain, a representative fast-talking news reporter, bad with names, great with faces.
[Star Master Jeff]: Stephanie, you'll be playing Nick's Silent Paul Verhoven, a cat burglar, a steveous, a perfectionist, and always lands on her feet.
[Star Master Jeff]: Dojo, you'll be playing Jet, the Viper Harlow, a gunslinger, does it for the credits, and because Nick's said so, he's deadly calm and keeps his guns immaculate at all times.
[Star Master Jeff]: And here we go.
[Star Master Jeff]: As your shuttle draws near, the orbital date of all looms ahead, a massive, three-story pyramid drifting in the void.
[Star Master Jeff]: Its dark surface etched with glowing lines and criss-crossing tracks, slowly it rotates on its axis, a monolithic structure in the cold silence of space.
[Star Master Jeff]: Occasional bursts of light flicker along its edges, as unseen systems hum with activity.
[Star Master Jeff]: Then rail lines run along its faces like veins, hearing maintenance drones that skitter along and programmed routines, hatching the dings and dens made from passing debris.
[Star Master Jeff]: The vault surface is sleek, almost seamless, except for the reinforced docking ports and security nodes jutting out like watchful centenals.
[Star Master Jeff]: Beyond it, the night world polyphen, blows faintly, casting long shadows across the vaults rotating form.
[Star Master Jeff]: Polyphin's hyper-urbanized surface is a pulsing patchwork quilt of civilization.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's neon streaks in suborbital skyways how meant with life.
[Star Master Jeff]: The shuttle chilt, as an ex-contact with the vault, a refueling arm extends, and connects with a hiss, and begins its fuel transfer.
[Star Master Jeff]: The access hatch to the inside of the pyramid is less than a hundred feet away along the vault's surface and, somewhere inside, locked behind layers of security, lies the truth you can hear to steal.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Felix, I am very indebted to you, and that is why we are here.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Before we get started I want you to know that I did my best with this plan and give me a lot of time We've got jet here.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I trust him not sure what to expect once we get over to that hatch a hundred feet away But we're gonna get in the now to this place.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Good at what I do jet the Viper good at what he does Amazing at what you do, but what is it that you'll hear to do?
[Scott (Felix)]: Let's wait guys, we've been over this on the flight up next.
[Scott (Felix)]: I know you wanted it all to be perfect And I am sorry we couldn't get more details But as we have you both here for your unique skill sets so we can encounter and overcome any obstacle Right now our obstacle is some open space between us and that hatch So as just we all save our air finish shooting up and launch our ass into the void
[Scott (Felix)]: And this isn't better myself, bro.
[Scott (Felix)]: Next we gotta suit up, everybody ready?
[Scott (Felix)]: We don't have a lot of time here.
[Scott (Felix)]: This is our right home, too.
[Scott (Felix)]: You need to zip it up and ready to go.
[Scott (Felix)]: Alright, here we go.
[Scott (Felix)]: So, unseal the error lock.
[Star Master Jeff]: and jump towards the pyramid.
[Star Master Jeff]: There's not a lot of air pressure in here.
[Star Master Jeff]: You've all been suited up in your armored VAC suits since the beginning, because this isn't refueling shuttle, and it's not really meant for people.
[Star Master Jeff]: You've been crammed into sort of a small space in here.
[Star Master Jeff]: So opening the hatch to get out, a tiny bit of aeroscopes, whatever residual air there was from leaving Polyfen's surface, and you're able to easily step down onto the surface of the great
[Star Master Jeff]: Sticking you to the surface.
[Scott (Felix)]: All right, I need to hold it.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I don't want everyone.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: What do you wait for?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: All right, let's get going.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I'm covering from the back.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I'm telling, making sure that those night burns more as well as you said they would.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Don't worry about it yet.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I trust in our equipment.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Everyone follow me.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Walk where I walk.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Don't mess this up.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Call it you only big for this next.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We'll talk more about it later.
[Star Master Jeff]: To the four of you leave the shuttle behind, activate your mag boots, and follow Nick's across the criss-crossing track to surface of the vault.
[Star Master Jeff]: But you do see some of those maintenance drones, they're essentially adhered to these tracks, and they're moving along quite quickly, but they don't seem to like pose any actual threat.
[Star Master Jeff]: However, Nix, nothing escaped your watch, but to the far right on the horizon of the vault, you notice that there is a flying drone that with its glowing red eye is scanning for unauthorized activity.
[Star Master Jeff]: You recognize that even from this distance, as a weaponized drone, meant for defense of a location.
[Star Master Jeff]: You've seen them many, many times before.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Chat, you see that drone over there?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: What are you out there?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Can you get it?
[Scott (Felix)]: Well, don't you know it.
[Scott (Felix)]: Next, Jet, I would maybe be more often to hustler inside if we take that one down.
[Scott (Felix)]: It might raise a large cost of the whole system.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Good point.
[Scott (Felix)]: Better to lay low.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'm used to working alone, so I wouldn't get caught in this situation.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I do have to think of the group.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Ah, I was told to shoot a thing and I won't shoot a thing now.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Later, Jet, later.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: There will be more drones.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I...
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I'm Brittany told that I hope you don't get your chance.
[Star Master Jeff]: I am now picturing Jet as Verupus Dolls.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: But I want to shoot it now!
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Maybe I want to shoot it now!
[Star Master Jeff]: I was told I could shoot it, and I want to shoot it now!
[Star Master Jeff]: I love it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Jet, you've reluctantly lower your pistol, and the four of you following Nick's make your way the rest of the way to the access hatch.
[Star Master Jeff]: Here you find a closed and locked access hatch with no obvious manual mechanical way to open it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Instead, there is a control panel that is next to it, along with a port below it, that a shuttle that is carrying passengers, maintenance, or visitor.
[Star Master Jeff]: would come and dock here and extend and connect to this port to pass a security clearance.
[Star Master Jeff]: You expected something like this to be here and you've brought your hacking tools in order to deal with it.
[Star Master Jeff]: However, knowing that there are security drones on the surface of this vault, does give you some pause.
[Scott (Felix)]: Alright, listen, I can get in here, but some that goes wrong, we might get swamped, so I need the rest of the security ready.
[Scott (Felix)]: If those drones come a call and don't hesitate to pull out of the sky.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Just give me the, give me the, go ahead at this point my, uh, figure is a bit itchy.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: What I said, keep me safe.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Is that between you and me?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Is that my actual mission, man?
[Scott (Felix)]: It's, it's, it's what you're being used to being here.
[Scott (Felix)]: Yeah.
[Scott (Felix)]: Hey, big bro, with the spreading get to work.
[Scott (Felix)]: I was in the ass.
[Scott (Felix)]: I'm doing it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Everyone can hear the whispers because getting closer and space, you're still just talking over your walkie-talkie.
[Scott (Felix)]: Yeah, I would be secret, it was meant to be emphatic.
[Scott (Felix)]: Private comb.
[Star Master Jeff]: Have you guys noticed?
[Star Master Jeff]: PD's gained a little weight.
[Star Master Jeff]: He's just a hundred meters away like, hey, come on.
[Scott (Felix)]: Have we said that?
[Scott (Felix)]: I'm going to pull out my data slab and plug in to begin trying to gain access.
[Star Master Jeff]: The moment that you plug in a flash goes over the screen, it says, security alert, visitor, identification, not recognized, which you kind of thought might happen.
[Star Master Jeff]: If you immediately start your hack, go ahead and roll for that, and...
[Star Master Jeff]: Next, nothing escapes your watch for lie, off to your left, but a hundred feet ahead you spot a security drone.
[Star Master Jeff]: It turns, it's red watch for lie, sweeping towards you, and then you spot another off to your right, and then another.
[Scott (Felix)]: It seems they are swarming on this location.
[Star Master Jeff]: And 11's a great role.
[Star Master Jeff]: You easily pass that first layer of security.
[Star Master Jeff]: You're able to give it a valid identification and it starts to cycle the airlock on the other side.
[Star Master Jeff]: However, while that's happening, it's asking for your second level of the identification if you have one to know how deep into the vault you can actually go.
[Star Master Jeff]: And there seems to be an array of various crypto keys and questions that you have to answer whether you have these things or not, the game access, the drones sweep closer.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We are running out of time.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We're gonna get in better how far we're gonna get in.
[Star Master Jeff]: Jack, they're out of range for everyone else.
[Star Master Jeff]: But you're a crack shot.
[Star Master Jeff]: Would you like to take a drone out?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I squeeze Felix's shoulder.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: They're in range.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: They're going spot us.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: It's like we're there with you.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Give me the order.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I'm going to have Felix.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Nick.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Nick's one-way need to do here.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Yes, I can't miss you.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: It's going to make it all.
[Star Master Jeff]: Next, you feel a beat of sweat running down your face.
[Star Master Jeff]: You're used to working alone, not commanding a group.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Finally, back at the PD, feeling like this is sort of the his vision interrupts the tension and he slaps shit on the back.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Just take the shot, Jeff.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: And next, let's out the biggest sigh of relief.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: So, I'm scooting off for me slowly, meticulously, line up the best shot I can on this drone.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: As it comes into my range, I specifically give it a minute and then pull the trigger as I hold my breath.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: might be a little bit better than terrible at shooting.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I roll a 16 or 5 points of damage.
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh my 16 hits.
[Star Master Jeff]: So your laser bolt rocked across the void of space.
[Star Master Jeff]: Drop this droid for 5 points of damage.
[Star Master Jeff]: Which is that that that that that that that uh.
[Star Master Jeff]: Enough to take it out in one hit.
[Star Master Jeff]: But when one falls, it doesn't fall because it's in zero G, where one explodes silently in slowly drifts away from the vault becoming a satellite of said vault, two more appear in its dead.
[Star Master Jeff]: Four are now totally aware of where you are and begin to rock it towards you.
[Star Master Jeff]: There are mere 50 feet away, which is a distance that nicks could probably hit
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: You see the rest coming.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: We have to take them out.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I do.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I can only shoot so many of them.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I have something empty.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: You need to clip all that one.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I'll be with you.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: He draws his pistol as well.
[Star Master Jeff]: What's the status of the airlock?
[Star Master Jeff]: So that was the first round.
[Star Master Jeff]: You can roll for your second round of packing.
[Scott (Felix)]: I keep working on this program.
[Scott (Felix)]: I'm going to roll again using my skill as expert.
[Scott (Felix)]: because I didn't like that role.
[Star Master Jeff]: Six may or may not have made it, yeah, but pretty bad.
[Star Master Jeff]: Okay, 10.
[Star Master Jeff]: much better.
[Star Master Jeff]: So you succeed getting through the second round of security questions and cryptographic keys that it wants you to supply to it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Now it's getting into sort of the intense stuff.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's really trying to drill into what your access is and you know that you're going to need the utmost access once you get in there that you keep working.
[Star Master Jeff]: The second round of combat starts we're now at a point where both jet and nix can comfortably shoot.
[Star Master Jeff]: Beady you can attempt to shoot
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Felix, I'm really going to need you to start moving on this.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: It's getting a bit hairy out here.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I'm going to level another shot.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Hello, my God.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I think I spraying my trigger finger.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I rolled a one.
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh no.
[Star Master Jeff]: So you go to raise up your pistol.
[Star Master Jeff]: But I'm used to combat in 0G.
[Star Master Jeff]: You're not a spacer.
[Star Master Jeff]: This is maybe even the first time you've been in 0G off world of polyphen.
[Star Master Jeff]: You release your gun and it begins to drift away.
[Star Master Jeff]: you're able to grab it just in time but of course your shot and your entire attack is spoiled next should have just done this on my own taking a shot
[Star Master Jeff]: I kind of love Nix, who love any attitude.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: It's different for me, I'm trying, I'm really trying.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's good.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'm breaking out.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: It's a new twerking.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: It's definitely worth it.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's not a cleric, and you're doing great with it.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Cleric, it's hard, but you're really, like, kind of, me.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: But, this is how you do it.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She shoots a 12 takes out a drone, but with five damage.
[Star Master Jeff]: The drone explodes silently and drifts away like the other.
[Star Master Jeff]: But you can see far off on the horizon, hundred, 125 feet away, another drone appearing.
[Star Master Jeff]: There seems to be no shortage of security drones here on the surface of the data vault.
[Star Master Jeff]: Heady was just like to take a shot at a minus one.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Which turns out to be... Wow, still a pretty great role.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I got 16.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: But only one damage.
[Star Master Jeff]: It cornees to the side and gets knocked off of its path.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's gonna take it around to reconfigure itself and start moving towards you again.
[Star Master Jeff]: So you've effectively taken it out of combat for one round.
[Star Master Jeff]: There's only one drone left in that distance band.
[Star Master Jeff]: So the three of you have effectively destroyed those four drones that are coming towards you as if for that last one and it arrives.
[Star Master Jeff]: It flies up to what's about 20 feet away from you and it opens fire.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's gonna randomly choose someone.
[Star Master Jeff]: It randomly chooses BD.
[Star Master Jeff]: I roll day two, so the laser bolt goes wide, almost hitting PD, but actually is much closer to hitting jet, but it misses both of them, the laser bolt flying off into the distance, and probably killing someone on polyphen.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: This is a laser goes all the way to the surface.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We can not expect this luck to continue.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: He looks, I'm walking on it, I'm walking on it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Next is a consummate professional who has been in the situation a million times.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Alone.
[Star Master Jeff]: Felix, I need you to roll hack once again.
[Star Master Jeff]: See if you can get through that third level of security.
[Scott (Felix)]: And only the one roll this time.
[Scott (Felix)]: Oh, I'm Felix.
[Scott (Felix)]: Your brothers here.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We got this.
[Scott (Felix)]: It's not good, guys.
[Scott (Felix)]: Oh my God.
[Scott (Felix)]: That's only a six pet time for the third level.
[Star Master Jeff]: You've already used your re-roll for this scene and a six is a failure.
[Star Master Jeff]: All of the drones that are in the distance move up another 50 feet.
[Star Master Jeff]: And Jet there is a drone directly in front of you and there are three drones in the next distance band out.
[Star Master Jeff]: What would you like to do?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I'm going to go for the further out, and while I roll that, I'm curious, do I have a warrior style re-roll as well?
[Star Master Jeff]: Yes, once per scene, beautiful, and it's not a re-roll, it's an auto hit, right, right, of course.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I was curious, so I asked specifically, because if PD got hit, could I re-roll a miss for PD?
[Star Master Jeff]: No, only against yourself.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Yep.
[Star Master Jeff]: Perfect.
[Star Master Jeff]: This is stars without number, not stars without consequences.
[Star Master Jeff]: If PD get hit.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one, good one,
[Star Master Jeff]: Next, would you like to take shot?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Yes.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I take aim at the drone closest to us, open to ensure safety.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I rolled a 17, thank god, for 4 damage.
[Star Master Jeff]: Your laser bolt slides seamlessly between the chunks in the drones armor, destroying its internal circuitry.
[Star Master Jeff]: It explodes with a small puppet smoke, which grips off into the void.
[Star Master Jeff]: There are four drones often, the 50 foot range band, Katie, you can try to shoot them at a minus one if you wish.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: At this point, P.D.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: is both hands on the pistol.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: He's got his mag boots locked and he's in like a crouching position on the surface of this pyramid and he is just peppering these drones because he is not much of a shooter, but if he doesn't do something, they're gonna close in.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: So yeah, I'm gonna take a shot, even though there is a little bit of a hit.
[Star Master Jeff]: He rolls a 12.
[Star Master Jeff]: A 12-head?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Nice, so it's only two points of damage, but his flurry of lasers manages to hit something.
[Star Master Jeff]: You hit the one that you hit before, and with the scorched mark that you gave it before, and the tiny dent that you strike to at this time, it's enough to rock as internal circuitry enough that it simply gives up.
[Star Master Jeff]: I got him!
[Star Master Jeff]: It's listlessly flies away, it's guidance systems somehow interrupted by the pebble-like laser assault that PD has brought onto it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Okay, Felix, your brother is doing something, but everyone's still in danger.
[Star Master Jeff]: Go ahead and roll your hack.
[Star Master Jeff]: Once again, to bypass the third, and hopefully final, round of cryptographic security.
[Scott (Felix)]: I could do it recently.
[Star Master Jeff]: Nine.
[Star Master Jeff]: Nine's enough.
[Star Master Jeff]: The drones begin to move forward as the access door slides open on the other side.
[Star Master Jeff]: You can see that there is an airlock barely large enough for three people.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'm not worried.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We're in.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: What happens if you take it in turns, I guess?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: You all go.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Be it in there.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: You don't have to put the main feedies already crumbling in as he was probably right next to Felix when it opened, so I Scrib one after P.D.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Lix!
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Get in here!
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I jam Dix in as hard as I can.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Shit!
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I can hide!
[Star Master Jeff]: Dixley, you're resisting?
[Star Master Jeff]: Yes!
[Star Master Jeff]: Next and Jet, go ahead and give me a strength roll.
[Star Master Jeff]: So we're going to blow it off from the board.
[Star Master Jeff]: You guys did the exact same roll, so you lock into a grapple where neither one of you have any purchase, trying to both shove each other into the hatch, meanwhile, all four of the drones from the 50-foot range band move in and begin their assault.
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh, it takes her turn to move up.
[Star Master Jeff]: So go ahead and roll, you guys gonna do another tussle?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I figured I'd just give a shove, but then it continued to shoot at the drones.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: You give a shove, but she locks onto you.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: She does, and I'm going to not disengage, but draw my weapon and shoot despite her clinging on to me.
[Star Master Jeff]: Okay, so the two of you are out there and beginning to shoot, feel like what do you wanna do?
[Scott (Felix)]: I'm in the hatch with PD.
[Scott (Felix)]: What do I see for controls in here?
[Scott (Felix)]: There's a troll panel that's echoed the airlock, and do I see a way that I can open it again for the inside?
[Scott (Felix)]: To open up, I guess I wouldn't know how to get through the airlock into the station.
[Star Master Jeff]: If I could open it for the rudder two, and it would barely fit three people, but four people could definitely cram in here.
[Scott (Felix)]: All right, so now that I'm in there, I look around, I will help.
[Scott (Felix)]: If it was self-fighting, if it would get off in here, it's gonna be tight for a few minutes.
[Scott (Felix)]: Just both of you get in here now.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: God, children are working with with children.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Yeah.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Next, do you continue to self-made?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Fine, fine, get iron back.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: You know it?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Yep.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: This is your choice.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Stop pushing.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'm getting it.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I stopped pushing long ago.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I'm continuing to hire the drones.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I did hire you for your shooting and not your brains.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I, at this end, which is what I am doing currently is introducing things.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: All right.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: That, there's room.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We've confirmed it.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I, I go briefly battle rage blind.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: And that is an issue thing.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: And Nick's shoves me into the capsule.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I think pulse it.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'm pulling now.
[Star Master Jeff]: Yeah, next is like, I'm going in first.
[Star Master Jeff]: I need to care about you and more.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Yeah, I care.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I care.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: But we have found a solution.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We can fit.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: It's grabbing him fight the best of the best of the best of the thing.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: And like, just engage your Mac boots.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: You have to pull you in.
[Star Master Jeff]: So you start pulling him in his bag boots or still activated, you just reach down, deactivate them, and yank him through.
[Star Master Jeff]: Feeling you're ready on the airlock, so you cycle everything.
[Star Master Jeff]: The four of you can exactly stand up in here, but there's zero G anyway.
[Star Master Jeff]: You're head to boot, topsy-turvy, all ends are twined with each other, just packed into a really tight space.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's like four people being crammed into a zero G closet.
[Star Master Jeff]: You can fit but no one's having a good time.
[Star Master Jeff]: No one of good morals is having a good time in this situation Oh no Yeah, we'll set not good.
[Star Master Jeff]: Wait a little bit.
[Star Master Jeff]: That does not have good morals.
[Star Master Jeff]: Hold on.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Wait Felix?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: It's opening.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: It takes a minute to cycle.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Who's groping me?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Any of you move any more will leave you here
[Star Master Jeff]: A good minute later, the airlock finishes cycling as you sigh with relief as the airlock door opens into the vault.
[Star Master Jeff]: You're able to take off your stifling helmets, but it's still 0G in here.
[Star Master Jeff]: You float in, reactivate your mag boots, but at least you can breathe.
[Star Master Jeff]: The room is dark, but suddenly dim emergency lights flicker to life, casting long shadows across the room.
[Star Master Jeff]: The small room, no more than 10 by 15 feet.
[Star Master Jeff]: In its center as an android, just it's upper half, and it's hanging in pale on an iron rod.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's synthetic skin cracked and feeling.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's an old model, but it's still active.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's eyes blink awake with a faint blue glow.
[Star Master Jeff]: Please present a dedication and state your business.
[Star Master Jeff]: Behind it, a heavy security door looms, seamless and inert.
[Star Master Jeff]: The Android, despite its ruined state, watches you like a host awaiting a reservation at a fancy restaurant, unmoving, yet incomplete control.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Just in a side, does Omni Tech not replace these things?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: This is like the second one, third one we've run into, that's just a lot too in that case.
[Scott (Felix)]: It's a piece of crap, yeah.
[Scott (Felix)]: They're actually very anti-consumption, surprisingly.
[Scott (Felix)]: So they used stuff till really can't be used anymore.
[Star Master Jeff]: They'd run much rather exploit humans than expensive robots.
[Star Master Jeff]: Humans are just like, you're everywhere.
[Star Master Jeff]: You're the building human too.
[Star Master Jeff]: Welcome honored guests.
[Star Master Jeff]: Please present identification and state your business.
[Scott (Felix)]: Okay, so I'm going to walk up to the Android and attempt to basically interface with it with my data slab to override it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Okay, so you go up to it and you pull out your data slab and you start looking for a port to hook into and it goes I kindly ask you to step back Yeah, yeah, I just need a more undied nonsense.
[Scott (Felix)]: I'm here for some diagnostics years.
[Scott (Felix)]: I just hold on a second We've provided identification with your diagnostic code.
[Star Master Jeff]: Yeah, I did that when I was coming in and you get all that information as I keep looking From next to the largest seamless security door behind it a small panel open and from out of it slides a turret It's laser pointing directly at your chest
[Star Master Jeff]: I'm going to have to ask you once again to please provide your dog doctor code.
[Star Master Jeff]: Okay, okay, okay, I step back.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I think to myself, could I make it over to that turret, about being caught and disabled with my laser pistol?
[Star Master Jeff]: You're unsure with the armor of the turret as and it's about eight feet away and you're unsure how quickly it would start firing.
[Star Master Jeff]: There's a lot of variables here.
[Star Master Jeff]: Darn.
[Star Master Jeff]: As you're thinking though, the turret slides back into the wall.
[Star Master Jeff]: Banner shift.
[Star Master Jeff]: Welcome, honor, guess.
[Star Master Jeff]: Please provide the identification and state your business.
[Scott (Felix)]: I don't look excited at PD who I know is always good on the spot like this.
[Scott (Felix)]: Hopefully stuff's up for me.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Yeah, PD probably came to this mission expecting this sort of questioning, right?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Is this like a, like do I know what kind of identification they're expecting?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Is it a badge?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Is it a code number?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Is it like a digital interface?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I don't understand what he's asking, but I'm sure PD would.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: PD, you had told me when we were preparing for this mission that you'd already talked to an Omni-tech maintenance operator.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Yeah, do you think got us on the ship?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Can they help further?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I don't think that this guy's gonna wait for me to make a phone call.
[Star Master Jeff]: They answer your question, PD.
[Star Master Jeff]: I'm trying to think of what knowledge you might have.
[Star Master Jeff]: You worked at Omni-tech for a few months.
[Star Master Jeff]: Okay.
[Star Master Jeff]: And you only learned about this specific location maybe like a couple weeks ago.
[Star Master Jeff]: But very shortly thereafter, you were like, oh shit, they're relocated.
[Star Master Jeff]: You do have a little bit of info and you do have a little bit of idea of what OmniTech uses for security.
[Star Master Jeff]: So PD just answered your question, every day when you went to the OmniTech offices for your job as a research assistant slash mole, you had to present your identification in a variety of ways depending on where in the building you were going.
[Star Master Jeff]: But the most common form of security when you first go into the building is voice print analysis.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Okay, Pete is pretty good at voice mimicry.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Do I think that there's anybody who did I do enough research?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: The type of people who are allowed, like I've not that next brought up.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Uh, could I try to do his voice?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I'm sure I know his name.
[Star Master Jeff]: games Henry Rollins, but you don't think that he's coming up into space, he's mostly like a polyphinside maintenance person, but you've heard a lot of voices in the past few months, but none more than the voice of the CEO Victor Seren.
[Star Master Jeff]: If anyone has access, he probably does.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Okay, with the prompt from Felix to Step 4 to end, do the thing.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Peter clears his throat and pushes Felix a little bit out of the way and he says, this is Omni-Tex CEO Victor Seren, and our reasons are classified.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: You will let us through with his best impression that he can do and I can roll like a talk or something for that.
[Star Master Jeff]: Yeah, please roll a talk and also now if I ever have to do this guy's voice, I have to sound like that.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: You have to settle it in this, because that's what PD says.
[Star Master Jeff]: Miss, how good his role is?
[Star Master Jeff]: Yeah, if your role sucks, I'm making him much brilliant.
[Star Master Jeff]: That's pretty good role.
[Star Master Jeff]: I don't know what the value I got at night.
[Star Master Jeff]: Damn it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Of course, CEO Victor Seren.
[Star Master Jeff]: Thank you for identifying yourself.
[Star Master Jeff]: Could you please state your business here in the orbital vault?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I told you that information is classified, but if you must know, then put down that it is a routine investigation.
[Star Master Jeff]: The Android kind of jerked back and forth, looks to the side, looks up, it's lifeless eyes, dim, and then glow brightly once again.
[Star Master Jeff]: The security measures that I have logged, state that I must have a more specific reason.
[Star Master Jeff]: In fact, Victor Seren, yourself, has visited this station multiple times.
[Star Master Jeff]: And each time, has reviewed the security protocol with me.
[Star Master Jeff]: In fact, I've failed multiple times.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: And this seems I'm going to have to put you down for yet another.
[Star Master Jeff]: It just tears blankly at you.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's there blankly at it.
[Scott (Felix)]: Just tell her we're here to get to get some data.
[Scott (Felix)]: That's what we're here for.
[Scott (Felix)]: She's going to be watching us the whole time we're doing it anyway, probably.
[Scott (Felix)]: Yeah, thanks, Felix, that's still helpful.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: If it's just standing there, it's just waiting still for further input from me.
[Star Master Jeff]: Or is it loading?
[Star Master Jeff]: It's either waiting for you, loading, stalled, or completely deactivated.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: So, after just like a moment of waiting, continuing his bed, his Victor Saren impression, PD size, and says, very well, I mean, he pretends to log something somewhere, and says, this is a data collection operation that I have personally authorized.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: It will that suffice.
[Star Master Jeff]: Unfortunately, with much regard CEO Victor Seren, the vault is currently in migratory mode, because it will be moving shortly, all security systems are currently active.
[Star Master Jeff]: Including, I, clearance, required, I'm going to need a bit more detail.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Well, we're going to need to collect some information on the itinerary of this vessel, as well as a manifest of all of its occupants.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Operation Red Wing.
[Star Master Jeff]: Good for.
[Star Master Jeff]: Operation Red Wing.
[Star Master Jeff]: Here, computational noise is happening.
[Star Master Jeff]: Digital feedback.
[Star Master Jeff]: Here, the theme song of the internet playing as the 56-K-Modem boots up.
[Star Master Jeff]: Operation Red Wing requires top-secret operational knowledge.
[Star Master Jeff]: In fact, arriving here at the station requires top clearance as well.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Why do you think I had to come myself?
[Star Master Jeff]: Yes.
[Star Master Jeff]: Thank you, CEO, Victor Sternen.
[Star Master Jeff]: Much regards.
[Star Master Jeff]: The three keys of security have been turned.
[Star Master Jeff]: The Android turned the basic back view and then flumps over like this, as the hatch in front of you moment, a review of a narrow pinning corridor, the air humming with energy, dozens of thin red laser beams, crisp frost the space before you, rotating with the corridor and shimmering dangerously.
[Star Master Jeff]: The faint scent of ozone fills your nostrils as you cautiously hide the door at the far end.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's just 30 feet away, a simple control panel is attached to the wall beside it.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: ED lets out a sigh in both frustration and relief.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: And he looks at his brother Felix and says, Felix, we deactivate that thing or something before we have to come back through here.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: He's mostly kidding, but he's just very frustrated with the Sandra.
[Scott (Felix)]: Hey, baby, you did a great job, man.
[Scott (Felix)]: I'm proud of you.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: There's a lot of riding on this Felix.
[Scott (Felix)]: Yeah.
[Scott (Felix)]: The next these lasers, uh, do you get troubles out here?
[Scott (Felix)]: We should've brought Katherine's A to Jones.
[Star Master Jeff]: Yeah, I'd bring Zeta Jones.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Oh.
[Star Master Jeff]: So basically, you're looking down a round corridor that's constantly turning clockwise and a tap to the walls are laser beams hiding across the space in between and of course they're rotating as well as the whole corridor rotates and Elex has just turned to you and demanded that you solve this problem next.
[Star Master Jeff]: What would you like to do?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Felix, do not take that tone with me.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: You know that I'm an expert here.
[Scott (Felix)]: Yeah, yeah, no, I know.
[Scott (Felix)]: Sorry, they made me short.
[Scott (Felix)]: You're right.
[Scott (Felix)]: I trust you.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: It's fine.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We're all frustrated.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'll need to have terrible, terrible technology when it comes to their droids.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Next is stretching right now because she's preparing to.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Yep.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I can definitely get that hatch for you.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'll go.
[Star Master Jeff]: So, next year, from familiar with these, they'll burn you, and if you get hit a few times, you'll die.
[Star Master Jeff]: They're mostly meant to incapacitate people, but if you kind of get stuck in a web of them, you will die.
[Star Master Jeff]: Out of character, what that means is that every time you can hit by a laser, you take a hit point of damage.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Oh, okay.
[Star Master Jeff]: Yes, you could very quickly die.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: How many rounds will I be going through this if I do this?
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh, you're talking about just jumping in there.
[Star Master Jeff]: So if you're trying to like launch yourself in, part of that is dependent on your speed, or if you're trying to, like, acrobatic, make your way through.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Well, yeah, no, I want to dance through it.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Yeah, absolutely.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: You know, you do.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'm dancing through it, leveraging my Mac boots to like change my angle, is like do it down the wall.
[Star Master Jeff]: Turning them off, turning them back on.
[Star Master Jeff]: Yeah.
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh, okay.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: That's, you know, she's doing cool flips through this thing and looking for handholds to, I don't know, the enemy's gate is down, et cetera, she's doing a whole thing.
[Star Master Jeff]: Okay, well, I wasn't behind this plan until you reference Andrew's game and now I'm totally behind it.
[Star Master Jeff]: So it's, you're in a single scene right now, so you can make a single role and we'll see what happens.
[Star Master Jeff]: Cool, so go ahead and roll your exert.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She just prepares herself to catapult dance through this room.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She's she studies it for a good 30 seconds to notice any patterns And rolled a ton home damn to Nix's thinking to herself she has been dreaming of this moment
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Every cat burglar looks forward to the day where not only do they get to dance through a complicated glazer security system that just adds on levels and levels of extra difficulties, but now she has an audience.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Nick's takes a breath and pops in her ear buds.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She likes music when she works, grab me well, red shift rapidly.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She looks at Peti right about this in the future.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: This is going to be worth remembering.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She launches herself into the hallway.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: There's the subtle click of mag boots coming on and off she dodges through the different laser beams trying to reach the end, working towards the end of the room.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She enters the flow state.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: This is something that she's been training for.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She's used to, it's beautiful.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: This is art.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: She reaches the doorway at the end of the hall and she goes to the access panel to see how she can disable this.
[Star Master Jeff]: Stephanie, that was freaking awesome.
[Scott (Felix)]: Yeah, that was great stuff.
[Scott (Felix)]: That was really well this time.
[Scott (Felix)]: Thank you.
[Scott (Felix)]: Love you.
[Star Master Jeff]: So you're on the other side of this spinning corridor of laser burning death and you've just expertly cat burglarger way acrobatically through a zero g web of just insanity.
[Star Master Jeff]: You definitely land on the other side activating your bag booth with a soft click of your heels.
[Star Master Jeff]: There is an access panel next to you that should not only open the door, but should deactivate the lasers that are spinning wildly next to you.
[Star Master Jeff]: So with a couple of depth presses of the buttons, you move through the menus and turn off the lasers and to the rest of the group is able to funnel down the corridor.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: So are we ready to continue?
[Star Master Jeff]: Damn, Nick's well done.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Thank you.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Thanks for inviting me, Felix.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I wish you'd have included a section on your exploits in the video link.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I appreciate it, and remember to also mention my trademark, the little mice that I like to leave behind.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Where did you leave the little mice this time?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Oh, oh, I haven't left it behind yet.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Once we get to the data, I have a spot picked out.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Yeah, that's the point.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I always clean them up behind you.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: You think, I'm fine.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I'm coming clean, I'm finally happening.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I always steal the mice back because this...
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Why someone else was able to take credit for the Wafisa job?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Do you mean Wafisa or Wafisa?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Because we also did the job on Wafisa.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Wafisa?
[Scott (Felix)]: We don't have time for this.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I left it in the car, in the storage unit.
[Scott (Felix)]: That refuely shuttle is going to leave soon.
[Scott (Felix)]: We gotta be honest.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Fine, fine.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: We can pick this up later.
[Star Master Jeff]: Let's go.
[Star Master Jeff]: Everyone is crowding around nixing, graduating or when Felix, you note that the access panel that's next to that door, most obviously will also open that door, and also re-activate the lasers if that is your desire.
[Scott (Felix)]: It is definitely not, my desire, so I will give nix one last congratulatory tap on the shoulder and move over to the door and try to get that sucker open.
[Star Master Jeff]: Okay, for someone as a depth of computers as you, it is no problem that people
[Star Master Jeff]: The next room has no exit.
[Star Master Jeff]: It seems to be the end of the line.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's 20 by 30 foot room.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's dimly lit.
[Star Master Jeff]: Dozens of computer screens are half-hazardly arranged on the far wall, but they're completely inactive.
[Star Master Jeff]: Below them there's a long terminal that stretches the entire length of the wall.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Ah, jackpot.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Oh, so this is it, PD.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Now all we got to do now is get that data and then we can expose on me tech for the scum they are.
[Scott (Felix)]: Yeah, that's right, brother.
[Scott (Felix)]: Alright, let me just log in, PD, then you can take over and find the data that you need.
[Scott (Felix)]: You're better at that.
[Scott (Felix)]: You just excitedly robes his hands together.
[Scott (Felix)]: Gonna move over to the terminal, and to begin trying to turn it on and gain access to it.
[Star Master Jeff]: As you move into the room, you realize that there's a bunch of cables all over the floor.
[Star Master Jeff]: So you didn't notice it because the room is so dim.
[Star Master Jeff]: So you go when you kind of trip over a cable and then make your way over towards the terminal.
[Star Master Jeff]: There's these, probably like it doesn't, really thick cables, snaking from the terminal to various ports all along the floor and the walls.
[Star Master Jeff]: PDU follow a man.
[Star Master Jeff]: Suddenly, the door slams shut, separating the group.
[Star Master Jeff]: Felix and PD stand alone surrounded by an eerie silence and the jumble of blank computer screens.
[Star Master Jeff]: Nixon jet are in the rotating corridor utterly cut off from their compatriots.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: What the hell was that?
[Scott (Felix)]: Ah, damn it.
[Scott (Felix)]: Nick, are you there?
[Scott (Felix)]: All you being able to do yet?
[Scott (Felix)]: Yep, what?
[Scott (Felix)]: What's going on out there?
[Scott (Felix)]: We just got closed off.
[Scott (Felix)]: Nick, can you read over the door?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Uh, let me try.
[Star Master Jeff]: You pressed the buttons, but nothing happens.
[Star Master Jeff]: Are there any panels on the side of the door?
[Star Master Jeff]: There are not.
[Star Master Jeff]: And the next time you attempt to talk to your friends on the other side of the door, you can't get through.
[Star Master Jeff]: A moment later, the blank screens crackle to life.
[Star Master Jeff]: A digital blue-faced materializes across the monitors.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's glowing eyes stare down at you with cold, un-blinking intensity.
[Star Master Jeff]: The face distorts lightly, it features flickering, like a corrupted signal, before it's voice booms out, robotic and un-yielding.
[Star Master Jeff]: You are not welcome here.
[Star Master Jeff]: Before either of you can react, a half dozen long, telescopic arms that shoot out from the walls that are metallic surfaces gleaming in the dim light.
[Star Master Jeff]: They move with unnerving speed and attempt to entangle both Felix and PD.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I could think that for me.
[Star Master Jeff]: I could roll from a vason here, but the truth of the matter is, eventually they will catch you.
[Star Master Jeff]: You could evade for a little bit, but one by one
[Star Master Jeff]: And with terrifying strength, they pull you toward the walls with a hit of hydraulic pressure.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Hey!
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Felix!
[Star Master Jeff]: We normally pay a premium for test subjects, but yet too willingly come to us for free.
[Star Master Jeff]: We're not willing to get off of us.
[Star Master Jeff]: Who is this?
[Star Master Jeff]: I'm Victor Seren, CEO of Omnitek.
[Star Master Jeff]: Now, that one you sound like.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I'm victors there in a CEO of Omnitek No, I'm victorship!
[Star Master Jeff]: It's a bad connection!
[Star Master Jeff]: And listen, I should be asking who you are, who would come to my orbital data vault and think that you could simply steal from me But I already know who you are, Felix, PD, Champlain PD, I've been watching you for months Do you think that you can simply infiltrate on the tech and get away with it?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I'm gonna bring this whole corporation to the ground.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: It's right, you sick freak.
[Star Master Jeff]: It might be difficult to do that while you're attached to this data vault wall.
[Star Master Jeff]: Especially since neither of you, nor your two compatriots outside, will be leaving you alive.
[Scott (Felix)]: Let's keep growing against the restraints, see if I can test or find any, give in them.
[Star Master Jeff]: There is no give.
[Star Master Jeff]: And in fact, as you struggle, they tighten, coiling around you like snakes.
[Star Master Jeff]: Damn you know, what do you want with us?
[Star Master Jeff]: I don't want anything with you, but of course, you came here, you tried to steal from me.
[Star Master Jeff]: I only think it's right that I steal from you instead.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's a type of poetic justice, this is not.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Idi like spits when he calls it justice.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Cooperation's like yours are stealing from people all the time.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Think about the lives that you've stolen with your silly project.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Word will get out, even if we aren't the ones who get it out there.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Word will get out.
[Star Master Jeff]: My dear lad, all the tech is going nowhere.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's bigger than any journalist.
[Star Master Jeff]: But I do wonder exactly how much you were able to uncover, please, tell me you're a theory.
[Star Master Jeff]: What exactly do you think is happening here?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Don't know about a name booty.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I'm sure that's exactly what you want.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: You have no way of knowing what I've already uncovered, and it's enough to put you in the ground for good.
[Star Master Jeff]: Like I said, you are going nowhere, and you're going to die, but I'll tell you what.
[Star Master Jeff]: If you can guess exactly what we are doing here, then I will let you go when you can print your story, but if you can't guess, I'll look at PD with panic in my eyes, PD what if you put together so far, we just don't want the contracts.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: You're using all these prisoners as slaves.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: You won't get away with it.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Slaves.
[Star Master Jeff]: Interesting theory.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: And what prisoners?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: You mean from contracts?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Yeah, you convince them that you'll give them some sort of way out of being imprisoned.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: But that way out is just another omnitech prison where they do what you want terrible working conditions.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: And if they even survive, the life that they live is a miserable one.
[Star Master Jeff]: very interesting and that's your theory you think that we're plucking them from prison to simply put them in a work camp somewhere.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I'm sure the truth is even more horrific than I can imagine.
[Star Master Jeff]: Well, there, you are not wrong, but not accurate enough to save your life, young PD-Champelin.
[Star Master Jeff]: And I suppose it's only fair to show you what is about to happen to you.
[Star Master Jeff]: Actually, the four knowledge of your fate may be useful data for us.
[Star Master Jeff]: The monitor in the middle of his face changes, showing a man being chased by some shadowy creature.
[Star Master Jeff]: The man struggles, tries to climb a tree, is unable to, the creature reaches them, and rips him to shreds.
[Star Master Jeff]: Another monitor blinks on, replacing his right eye.
[Star Master Jeff]: It shows a woman straining to reach a child before both tumble from a cliff face smashed upon the rocks below.
[Star Master Jeff]: Another monitor shows two groups of people desperately fighting each other over scraps of food.
[Star Master Jeff]: Another monitor in another monitor in another, each monitor flicks to life, showing men, women, and yes, even children in dire situations.
[Star Master Jeff]: straining.
[Star Master Jeff]: To survive.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: but you torture them so you run experiments on them.
[Star Master Jeff]: Yes, indeed, but far more efficient experiments that you might imagine, a life can only be given once.
[Star Master Jeff]: But you, like so many before you, will be copied into our machine.
[Star Master Jeff]: Your consciousness will be converted to artificial intelligence, where you will be made to participate in our tests for eternity.
[Star Master Jeff]: The data gleaned from your participation will be most valuable.
[Star Master Jeff]: You're sick bastard!
[Star Master Jeff]: Your fate's already sealed, pleading does nothing.
[Star Master Jeff]: I must simply decide which of you goes first.
[Star Master Jeff]: Perhaps you have an opinion.
[Star Master Jeff]: You're both going to die, so which one goes first?
[Scott (Felix)]: No, please just, just take me.
[Scott (Felix)]: I'll go willingly.
[Scott (Felix)]: Just let him go.
[Scott (Felix)]: Felix, what are you saying?
[Scott (Felix)]: No, be.
[Scott (Felix)]: Just don't write about it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Just let it go.
[Star Master Jeff]: Just let it be.
[Star Master Jeff]: You're young, PD?
[Star Master Jeff]: Perhaps I will show you mercy if you simply promise to not write about everything that you've seen here today.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: And I'm supposed to expect that this twisted CEO is just going to take me on my word.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Felix, the people need to know.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Beady, beady, but you, you've got to live.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I promise, mom.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I can't not search for the truth, Felix.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: You know that about me.
[Scott (Felix)]: I know.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: I know it's why I'm so damn proud of you every day.
[Star Master Jeff]: But brothers love how touching.
[Star Master Jeff]: But I thank you first, young girl, one.
[Star Master Jeff]: In fact, like I've said before, I recognize you from our offices.
[Star Master Jeff]: A trader, I'll try to make it as painful as I can.
[Star Master Jeff]: One of the telescopic arms produced with a skull cap covered in wires.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's rims several foot blades.
[Star Master Jeff]: It places it upon beauty's head as you struggle to avoid it.
[Star Master Jeff]: a buzzing of the saws and he screams still the air.
[Star Master Jeff]: A suction tube delicacy dab of the rim of the skull cap looking up blood.
[Star Master Jeff]: Keedy's eyes roll into the back of his head and the water is on the skull cap begin to glow.
[Star Master Jeff]: Hulse aiding with a hidden energy.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: You can't act like the forever.
[Star Master Jeff]: And finally, Keedy's voice is silent as he slumps forward, lift and lifeless.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: This way, brother, you bastard!
[Star Master Jeff]: The Skullcap removes with a loud suction noise.
[Star Master Jeff]: The top of his skull comes with it.
[Star Master Jeff]: Olds and his brain are revealed.
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh, you'll you.
[Star Master Jeff]: Plugs from the Skullcap, unhook, and snake, tendruling back into the Skullcap.
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh, you bastard.
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh, you'll you, whatever it takes.
[Scott (Felix)]: You're a dead man.
[Scott (Felix)]: One down.
[Scott (Felix)]: Wherever I am, whatever it's, measure of consciousness I have left.
[Scott (Felix)]: You'll never be safe.
[Star Master Jeff]: The arms removed PD from the wall, and a piece of the floor slides over to reveal a full of dead bodies, many of which are wearing prisoner garb.
[Star Master Jeff]: This smell is intense.
[Star Master Jeff]: PD is dropped in unceremoniously, and the shoot closes.
[Star Master Jeff]: A monitor flickers to life.
[Star Master Jeff]: Keedie is on the screen.
[Star Master Jeff]: He's at a playground.
[Star Master Jeff]: He looks confused.
[Star Master Jeff]: There's a bomb strap to his chest.
[Star Master Jeff]: The police, they have him surrounded.
[Star Master Jeff]: They fire.
[Star Master Jeff]: He explodes.
[Star Master Jeff]: The monitor shifts the show Keedie tied to a chair as a dog-sized spider skitters towards him.
[Star Master Jeff]: It begins to take out chunks of his legs and his arms.
[Star Master Jeff]: The monitor flickers back to the CEO's face.
[Star Master Jeff]: The door burst open in a gout of flame.
[Star Master Jeff]: Hey, y'all, that's jet in Nick, tumble through.
[Star Master Jeff]: These are pistol shots.
[Star Master Jeff]: Get me down from here.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I've run over and take him down.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I have to save my brother.
[Star Master Jeff]: So the two little mice found their way into the inner saint-dem after all.
[Star Master Jeff]: I suppose I shouldn't be surprised.
[Star Master Jeff]: I was gonna deal with you in due time, but I suppose I'll take care of all three of you at once.
[Star Master Jeff]: I should make your way towards Felix, the arms that once held P.D.
[Star Master Jeff]: Snake towards you next.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's not going to be that easy.
[Star Master Jeff]: I'm going to need you all to roll initiative.
[Star Master Jeff]: Next, you won the initiative.
[Star Master Jeff]: You are currently running up to Felix and there's just a bunch of telescopic arms that are pinning him to the wall.
[Star Master Jeff]: What would you like to do?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I still want to get him down.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: It's quickly as possible.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Can I evade my way around the arms coming towards me?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Good.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: He looks.
[Star Master Jeff]: Yeah.
[Star Master Jeff]: So they haven't had a call on that round yet.
[Star Master Jeff]: There's sort of starting to reach towards you, but you're able to reach Felix first.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Okay.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Yep.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I'm going to get to Felix and try to free him.
[Star Master Jeff]: Okay.
[Star Master Jeff]: Go ahead and roll straight.
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh, nice.
[Star Master Jeff]: So you make your straight throw, and you pry one of the three telescopic arms off of him.
[Star Master Jeff]: The one that's holding is neck in his right arm.
[Star Master Jeff]: It's fried off, and you toss it away from him.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Felix, come on.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Jet.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I'd prefer to shoot at the arm closest to Felix.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Preferably right next to his head, it's possible.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Okay?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Don't miss.
[Scott (Felix)]: We sat right next to my head.
[Scott (Felix)]: Don't throw right next to the head.
[Scott (Felix)]: It's not a great rule.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: And for that right next to the head, I roll the six.
[Scott (Felix)]: You can make an auto hit as warrior.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I do indeed make it an auto hit for seven points of damage.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Six is a mess.
[Star Master Jeff]: Auto hit is a success.
[Star Master Jeff]: You hit for seven points of damage.
[Star Master Jeff]: Your missed turns into a hit as you curve the laser.
[Star Master Jeff]: And it slams into one of the telescopic arms.
[Star Master Jeff]: Seven points of damage instantly disables it.
[Star Master Jeff]: It falls off from around his neck.
[Star Master Jeff]: Felix, you still have a telescopic arm around your waist, but your entire upper body is now pretty.
[Star Master Jeff]: What would you like to do?
[Scott (Felix)]: I would like to put both hands on it and try to push it off with me.
[Scott (Felix)]: Okay, real strength.
[Scott (Felix)]: No, I failed.
[Star Master Jeff]: Push as hard as you can, but your grief and your choking stops are preventing you from utilizing your full strength.
[Star Master Jeff]: The telescopic arm is the Lance towards you.
[Star Master Jeff]: Two of them go for jet.
[Star Master Jeff]: So the first one kind of crashes into you and is unable to gain purchase on your armored back suit, which is a very simple experience.
[Star Master Jeff]: And the second one completely misses as you expertly dive to the side.
[Star Master Jeff]: The third one goes to next.
[Star Master Jeff]: Next, this one misses just barely as is your slippery nature.
[Star Master Jeff]: It grabs you when you simply vanish.
[Star Master Jeff]: The other two, one of them got destroyed, and the other one got pulled off, and is bending its turn, reorienting itself, and the sixth one is currently around Felix's waist.
[Star Master Jeff]: Next, what would you like to do?
[Star Master Jeff]: Nope, me, Nick's!
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Help me!
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: I run back up to Felix and continue to try to unravel him from these tentacles.
[Star Master Jeff]: So a six-beats-your-target of 11 on your strength, you easily pry the last of the telescopic arms off of Felix, who falls to his knees off of the wall.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Felix, are you okay?
[Star Master Jeff]: Uh, baby, they took him.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Where's P.D?
[Scott (Felix)]: This gun, next is gone.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Where'd he go?
[Scott (Felix)]: At the point of the monitors.
[Star Master Jeff]: Isn't that sweet?
[Star Master Jeff]: Do you really think you will escape?
[Star Master Jeff]: You're an orbit, and I have infinite arms.
[Star Master Jeff]: Doja, what would you like to do?
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I take a eight at one of the arms that is coming towards me or next at this point and take a laser pistol shot at it for 16 with 7 points of damage.
[Star Master Jeff]: 16 hits and 7 points of damage instantly disabled is one of the arms.
[Star Master Jeff]: The telescopic arm shutters and falls to the ground, a scorched mark through it, and two more take its place, erupting from underneath the terminal, the long cables that are along the floor that Felix noted when he first entered, begin to arrive and try to reach out and entangle your feet.
[Star Master Jeff]: Felix, what would you like to do?
[Scott (Felix)]: I like to get to my feet and take a split second.
[Scott (Felix)]: Alright, we gotta go!
[Scott (Felix)]: We gotta go!
[Scott (Felix)]: Let's start moving towards the door and pulling next by and me.
[Star Master Jeff]: Oh, what's wrong Felix?
[Star Master Jeff]: Leaving so soon?
[Star Master Jeff]: Since the last you hear me, you monster.
[Scott (Felix)]: I swear, you'll pay.
[Star Master Jeff]: The mocking laugh of CEO Victor Serrin echoes after you as retreat down the hallway through the spinning room back past the inert android and out onto the surface of the vault.
[Star Master Jeff]: Here you are ready for a firefight but no drones are in sight.
[Star Master Jeff]: Carefully and quickly, next leads you back to the shuttle.
[Star Master Jeff]: make it inside just before the door is closed.
[Star Master Jeff]: Felix, as was the plan just in case you were found out, you were hurriedly upload your hack to the shuttle's interface, changing its landing zone from deep within on-the-tech territory to a safer spot outside of one of the major cities on polyphen.
[Star Master Jeff]: Going back to the same world as on-the-tech is headquartered, but that doesn't mean you
[Scott (Felix)]: So that's about it, I guess.
[Scott (Felix)]: You know, Nick's jet and I barely made it out of life and PDL PD didn't.
[Scott (Felix)]: That was not any way that mattered.
[Scott (Felix)]: His body was gone, but his consciousness had been copied, digitized, and locked away inside that goddamn fault.
[Scott (Felix)]: And he's still in there, and if I couldn't get him out, I knew that I had to find a way in.
[Scott (Felix)]: I can't just leave my brother alone like that.
[Scott (Felix)]: So once we got back, plan it side, that it did one thing I could have.
[Scott (Felix)]: burned my old life to the ground.
[Scott (Felix)]: It's time for a new, a new voice, a new face, a new name, Felix Champlin.
[Scott (Felix)]: It's just together past, brave the right people and got myself a job that I'm the tech, just like I learned from Beatty.
[Scott (Felix)]: From the inside, I kept my eye on that vault, tracking its movements.
[Scott (Felix)]: It was far, far away now, way off of any known drill paths in the sector, in some empty pit in the corner of existence.
[Scott (Felix)]: Even if I wanted to, full impulse it would take years to reach it.
[Scott (Felix)]: Gods knows where it would move at the meantime.
[Scott (Felix)]: It's better to wait and watch and keep hope.
[Scott (Felix)]: Keep hope alive.
[Scott (Felix)]: And one day out of the blue, a job popped up on the internal job board, a cinnamon sophistication.
[Scott (Felix)]: The coordinates, they were close to the vault, a little too close to being a coincidence in my book.
[Scott (Felix)]: So, I scrubbed the applicant list, made sure I was the only hacker on there worth hiring and just like that, I was in.
[Scott (Felix)]: Well, I didn't know what the time was at all Dr. Vost there.
[Scott (Felix)]: It's at this whole thing up.
[Scott (Felix)]: And now, I'm back on Omitex shit list.
[Scott (Felix)]: But you know, it doesn't matter, because I'm with this team now and fuck on the tech.
[Scott (Felix)]: One way or another, I've killed on that damn CEO, and I'm getting my brother back.
[Scott (Felix)]: And that's all I gotta say.
[Star Master Jeff]: We're no wonder there was only one hacker available for my job.
[Star Master Jeff]: He looks template, you certainly are one of a kind.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Thanks, Doc.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Felix, that's a pretty heavy story, man.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Really sorry about your bro.
[Scott (Felix)]: It's all right, Thorne, thanks.
[Scott (Felix)]: You all wanted to hear it, so there it is.
[Scott (Felix)]: Now it's not make a big thing of it, okay?
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Alright Felix, but we're here for you.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Yeah, Felix, I started feeling a little bit tired that I said you don't, you didn't fit in.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: You, you were certainly one of us.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Thanks for appreciate it.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Alright, who wants pie?
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Thor and Drex, this is personal luck, so we had some storage time tonight and I can't believe what I heard, poor Felix.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Every one of this crew has been really affected by these damn corpos, and it always seems to be some kind of family connection.
[Brian (Thorne/Petey)]: Reminds me of, mom and the others, back home, can't help but wonder what those corpos are doing after I heard what all me tech did, sick, I'm scared, I hope I hear from them soon, and transmission.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: Robert Ross, I never heard so many actual deep truths from him.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: He is usually prone to sarcasm to whip, but there's real loss.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: There's real depth behind it.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I told some stupid, live-hearted, low-story, and Felix.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: You could tell he needed to get some office chairs.
[Doja (Robert/Jett)]: I always knew he was one of us.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Haley, two-wise reporting in, you know, it's been a pretty rough couple of weeks, pretty brawl from seeing some more about that mission, Mr. and Robert.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Robert Ross, we're on a few weeks ago and then today hearing from Felix about what his own family is experienced as a corporation's out here.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: It's always been a little bit frustrating, but we really are in the same boat ship.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: Yeah, I'll go listen.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: just trying to make sure that you don't let them get away with this.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: All this crap they're doing.
[Steph (Haleyy/Nix)]: That's just going to hurt more people.
[Scott (Felix)]: Haley out.
