"Of course!" Cylus says as the ship lurches forward. He adjusts his footing and maintains his position.
"Still have to get used to that one though." he says with a grin
English
-
"You never really do if I'm being honest. You never really do." Marker stepped off the dropship into the hangar Bay of the [i]Militia's Paragon,[/i] where Cylus had been to visit the UNSC forces in uncharted space. "Should take a few minutes. So… go play Pac-Man or something."
-
"Will do." Cylus walks over to the nearest bench and props himself down. Turning on his wrist console, he begins playing. [quote]*Why do you insist on always playing such an old game?* Q asks[/quote] "Because it's fun and I'm too lazy to get another." [quote]*That checks out.*[/quote]
-
After a few minutes, the ship lurched once more as it exited FTL and floated towards Station Seven.
-
Cylus looked around and turned off his game, ready to move. He sat their patiently until the ship had fully boarded Station Seven, as it did the last time he came with Carly.
-
He could hear the large mechanical like arms bringing the ship into a docking position with the station. Marker rose up to his feet from a bench besides Cylus, motioning for Cylus to follow as he started walking
-
Cylus gets up and hurries to Marker's side. "I hope they've gotten the stuff prepared for our visit. I can hardly wait to see it!"
-
"I contacted Carly, she wants you to be the first to try out the prototype Arc rifle." Marker commented as they walked, heading towards the connector between the station and the ship
-
"That'll be something. I'm just glad to be here." Cylus replies
-
"Oh?" Marker asked, glancing over at Cylus
-
"I've been away from my project for too long, I'm mainly excited to see how it's progressed and developed. Well that and the transdimensional communicators that are in the works." Cylus says. "But also it's pretty cool to just be surrounded by all this technology I wouldn't have even dreamed of back on Earth."
-
"You really never thought any of this would be possible? I mean you would have to have at least some idea of what [i]could have been [/i]."
-
"Well definitely not in my lifetime. Like you said, on your earth you were already colonizing other planets. Back on mine, we couldn't even get to Mars." Cylus says "This is the stuff of Science Fiction. Video Games. Mere dreams where I come from. It'd take a hell of a long time for the people back there to even start to think about making this stuff a reality."
-
"Yeah well I guess we're pretty lucky in a way. Wouldn't you agree?" The duo entered into station seven, walking to the main experimental area
-
"Very." he nods. As they walk, Cylus looks around and takes note of all the testing rooms and labs, just as they were before.
-
They eventually walked through the blast doors into the experimental lab were Carly and Vaughn were. The two were sitting at a table, with a rifle on said table with both working on it "OI! The connecter is sahpposed to bee here." Vaughn yelled, pointing at the rifle as Carly shook her head in dismissal
-
"There they are!" Cylus says, raising his hands in greeting. "Carly. Vaughn." he nods. "What have you got here?"
-
Carly turned around and rose up to her feet, walking towards Cylus. He was able to get a better look at the [url=https://imgur.com/TJPhvi8]rifle [/url] that was on the table, but Carly quickly broke his line of sight as she extended a hand to shake
-
Cylus shakes her hand and looks over to Vaughn. "You okay down there?" he asks with a chuckle
-
"Foking peachy." Vaughn said slightly agitated as he continued working on the rifle
-
"Swell." Cylus laughs. He looks down at the rifle and back to Carly. "This the gun Marker's told me so much about?"
-
"Yes! The prototype Arc rifle. Vaughn, close it up." Carly said, glancing at the Irish man "Jus giv me a sek!" Vaughn said, connecting something in the rifle and than closing it up. He raised the rifle up towards Cylus, almost disappointedly.
-
"It's- it's [i]amazing.[/i]" Cylus comments. "Where am I to shoot it?" he asks, weighing it in his hands
-
"Just shoot it into that wall over there." Carly said, pointing to one of the four walls "It takes a moment to charge, so be ready for that."
-
Cylus presses the stock against his shoulder and aims the weapon. Pointing at the wall, he pulls the trigger and holds.
-
He could feel the raw energy pumping through the weapon as arc energy gathered between the two barrels of the weapon "The longer you hold it, the larger the shot. But it consumes more ammo. If you let go more quickly, you conserve on ammo but the shots are weaker."
