[b]quasis keeps working on the frame of the gate[/b]
-
He finally reaches a point to where it looks like the gate. "Is this it?"
-
"Yeah, put it in the frame now. It should stabilize it so we aren't sucked into god knows where."
-
With the help of a vex, he manages to set the gate into the frame. "I'm guessing we should stand back for testing."
-
"Yeah, anyone willing to test it?"
-
"One moment." Hunter exits, then after 5 minutes, comes back with a makeshift mechanism. "this thing would like to."
-
"So will you just connect it to the ship and send it off?"
-
"I'm going to. Thankfully the ship can be used as a UAV, so as long as it doesn't destroy the planet, we're good" He hooks up the switch, then radios for a takeoff. "I would back up a bit."
-
[b]quasis and the rest of them back off, making sure that they were at a safe distance[/b]
-
Hunter hits a switch, and the ship takes off. After it is a safe distance away, the Gate is activated.
-
"And now we wait to see if that works."
-
A vex from the Precursors falls out, and the gate shuts down. "I think it works for the most part." The ship turns back and land, allowing them to inspect the creation. Hunter inspects the ship.
-
[b]quasis inspects it with him[/b] "We need to set up our own network so that vex don't step out of the gate mid flight."
-
"How long does that take? Because we also need to get a more powerful source for the gate."
-
"A week or two, it depends on how many gates we will be using."
-
"How about 6 gates, just to start out with? We can expand from there."
-
"Hmmm, yeah, that will take about a week."
-
"5 gates left. 5 hours per gate. Just over 8 days until we have the best transportation in they system.
-
"Yup, the ships outfitted with them should be able to outrun anything."
-
"I could also try to build a ship around a frame. Then it won't be weighed down by the gate too much."
-
"That sounds like a good idea, but that would mean more time."

-
"I'm, that sounds like it would work out well."
-
"Thank you. We can get started later. I think we should finish overseeing your outpost."
-
"We should, I bet everyone is wondering what to do now."
