Aurora finally catches up to Aleron. "Alright, what have we got," she asks rhetorically, taking a look herself. 'Lead the way, Lieutenant," she tells him. In this instance, she was back-up. It was Aleron who wanted to check out the hallway. Besides, she figured she would offer the show of respect to make him feel better. She was planning a talk with this one. From his file and his behavior under her command so far, she was starting to figure some things out about him.

"No problem, you're welcome," she replied, nodding at the rest of his statements. She gave him a wave as he left, then returned to her spot with Mace watching Sonja, tossing the light, gauze, and medical tape into her Med-kit as she passed it. Reaching down, she went back to absent-mindedly scratching behind Mace's ears, thinking about the survivor and paying attention to the various conversations between the other crew members.

Misha's eyes would widen and she would grin, "Captain, it's a alrge room that we would need to clear in a gorup but There is alot of mining equipment and vechiles which I can pilot. There should be some useful parts plus some tools we can use to fix the ship." Misha walked into the room cautiously keeping an eye on her radar and sensors waiting to any movement after each step. she would reach the closest crate and would smash the front side of it. She grinned finding what she was looking for, reaching inside she pulled out soemthing she hadn't gotten to "play" with in almost twenty years. A model 1235 SHT Heavy Rivet Gun which was used for extreme long distance riveting and ship repair. She picked up the harness and began to strap it on the sound of the straps going over the coms, she made sure to keep an eye on the radar and sensors still. she would then attach the rivet gun to the harness and swing it around to the back and then back to the front testing the lock on it. She was satisfied with it. She loaded up the hopper with it's max limit of a two thousand rivet container and she locked it into place. She picked Sammy up again and made her way toward the door, never once turning her back on the room. She was uneasy, she felt soemthing... Hostile but she couldn't tell from where or how far away she just knew it was there, "I'm on my ay captain and I've got a nice surprise for you." she grabbed a few flares from the box near the door and one mining charge and slipped them into the second holding compartment on her right leg opposite from her shotgun ammo spares. she was ehavy now so flipping wasn't n option but jumping still was for the most. She could fight still but she would need to use the Rivet Gun as her main ranged and melee attack now...
(( oh AnCat you are a sweetheart it's worth it's weight because that power is gonna come in handy me thinks especially with that shot capacity. and the semi-auto fire type too of a rivet gun it's gonna be nice lol ))

"What the..." he said, trying to get a better scan. As he did, Aurora had come. He nodded and saluted. "Captain." he said, before turning back to the hall. "Yeah, I've got something. It's not this moss-stuff but...it's warmer then something just sitting around, and seems pretty big." he said, his visor going down as he kept the flashlight aimed at what it was on the floor, heading toward it.

"Alright, Clastov. Glad you're joining us." She gives their location to Misha so that she could find them and stays close to Alerion, looking over his shoulder in interest.
(AnCat had gone to dinner. He'll bbl. 'Bout an hour-hour and a half.)

Misha reads the location on her radar and expands it so she can locate their suit beacons. She picks up the pace as she comes to the hall but she is still atleast 60 feet off from them still, "Almost to you Captain... Just try not to start any fun without me." The last was soft and inaudible to the others, she was worried by Aleron's statement and hoped to hell she could get tere in time jsut in case. She'd rather have all three of them there and with a heavy weapon than jsut two with melee mostly and a wrist mount she had almsot no idea the true power of...

((Margo, this is for you)) AnCatDubh The other tanks in the freezer room the Boda had, until just recently, been resting in cold-sleep were also in an alarming state. Some had been opened and their occupants no longer inside; others showed red critical lights. A few still showed the healthy green of occupants in suspension. Of the medical personnel that should be around, none were to be seen. One of the medical station's terminals was still on off in thecorner, it's screen flashing "Warning! Security Level 4 lockdown! Warning! Security Level 4 Lockdown!" ((For everyone else...)) Sonja continues sleeping in sick bay, the IV drip improving her color somewhat. Her lips move slightly, and someone watching close enough would realize she was performing the movements for speaking. As Aleron and Aurora wait for Misha to join them, from somewhere within the station comes a hair-raising shrieking noise, followed by a muffled fwump that could only be something going all explodey at a distance...

((So help me, AnCat, if that was one of the splody-heads from Halo..!!!))
Aleron froze, aiming his gun/light down the hall. "What....the s**t...was that." he asked aloud, his voice serious. He started forward again, sort of wanting to see what the thing on the ground was before learning what ever the hell that sound was.

"Proceed with caution, Lieutenant," Aurora says to Aleron, though her tone makes it obvious that she really doesn't think she has to tell him that. It mostly just helped her to calm her own nerves. She was just as curious, and it was their mission to get to the bottom of what happened here. This sounded like another very possible clue. Thus, she would hardly order them to leave it be. Why couldn't the clues be on nice sandy beaches, wrapped in rose petals and offered by harmless, fuzzy kittens? she wonders.

((I'm...not familiar with anything like that from Halo, Lyric. Unless you mean the special skull item that makes grunts explode when killed by a headshot.))

((Ixor, that made me chuckle. AnCat; My friends and I call them Mr. Splody-heads, but they're basicly like...a pair of legs and their entire upper body is just this huge sack, and they lean down and blow up, letting loose a bunch of the smaller parasite-flood.  The circled things, basicly. Make the creepy little squid-parasite-things.))

Misha had ehard the sound and she charged forward faster pushing herself now to get there in time. She would cover the distance fast and her foot falls could be heard coming toward them easily. She would come to a skidding halt almost next to them as she pulled the heavy Rivet gun back around the front and rest it on her hip slightly, holding onto the forward grip and the trigger handle near the back, "Clastov reporting, ready, raring, and heavily armed..." Her voice was strong and sounded almsot as if she was already high on adrenaline...

((Ah, right, the infection form of a Flood carrier, I think...hm...))
Silence reigns from farther down the corridor after the exploding noise dies away. The biomass was still ahead and around the corner of the 4-way intersection, as unmoving as before.
Mio...was rather creeped out by the noise and chatter over the comm. "Just concentrate on the repairs..." he mutters to himself, coils of wires draped over his shoulder and carrying a box of other spare parts back to the bridge.

So fast... it had all happened... so fast...
The dim flickering light makes the shadows jump causing Gin to twich slightly and pull a gun at the shadow. Then relaxed realizing there is nothing there. This was one of the only safe spots..
"I'm telling you Bill, you put your full weight on that ankle before it's propely healed I'm putting both your legs in a cast up to your waist and make you pee into a cup!"She threated. The brightl ights of the aluxery medical area shone down on them.
"yes yes, I'm sorry I re-twisted it after you told me to stay off it" Bill said waving his hand in a dismissive manner. Gin sighed and rolled her eyes. She was serious she'd stick him in a full body cast mabye.. one with the itchiest material she could find! She shook her head as he headed out and she began to clean up.
Suddenly alarms went off, the lights dimmed and emergency ones flickered on. Grimicing Gin put the special filter plugs into her ears and looked around.
"Alert, all crew to stations. All crew to stations, all civillians to rooms. "blared over the speakers. Gin frowned."What the hell had happened?!" she muttered to herself. That wasn't a good announcment. At least she was alredy at her station. But her stomach gave a very unpleasnt lurch. She had SUCH a bad feeling about this!!
And now, well now things had gone to hell. The smell of death hung in the air, the scrubbers beyond the limits. She shuddered when she realized she was pretty much getting used to it. She sneezed yawning a bit. She was catching a light doze, hated the dreams from before sneeking in.
Suddenly the entire place shook and shuddered. The screach of metal on metal ripped at her ears, sending fresh waves of adrinalin into her body, her heart pumping fast.
"The ******** hell!?" she yelped as she was jostled and felt it finally settle down. She was breathing rapidly. Something landed.. not in a good way.. or had hit them.. the cryo chamber!!
"s**t.. I have to check on them!"she hissed out. She strapped the guns to each hip, and the one she carried on her thigh. She lothed them but for now they were the only thing saving her. Her medical bag had been made into a make shift back pack, and she slung that to her back, a larger rifle like gun nuzzled into the make shift holder there as well.
"I found them and got them in cryo so they could survive, whatever happened had better damned well not destroyed that!!" she hissed to nobody standing, wobbling slightly and then firming. Slowly she opened her door, then after looking back and forth carefully, to ensure clear cost, she made her way down towards the chamber. She had to protect them, save lives, that was her job, her goal. She'd get them out of this living hell and get them back to ok. The ones with the red lights, the ones she coudln't save on her own right now. She'd make sure they survived this. And cryo was the only way.
She sliped into the cryo room looking around for any damage done.
