[b]Part I: Welcome to TalonCo.[/b]
The Party's ships arrive at the station, having met up earlier through radio, and accompanying each other to the designated area— after all, the suspicious nature of the measure calls for an extra hand. Four extra hands certainly didn't hurt.
You exit Hyper-Space and are met by the sight of a large, grey rock— obviously a moon. What's odd about this moon is that it's encircled by a thick, washer-like ring, which becomes thicker in height the closer to the center it gets. Along the outer edge, you witness several large rectangular plates— most of them are broken, and others seem to be absent, as if torn off. Only a single one seems to be functional as it continues to rotate its path along the edge.
[b]Objective: Radio into the station and request access.[/b]
[b][i]All participating members, please check in. Absent members may only check in late up to Part II.[/i][/b]

-
Shit. Looks like Code Red isn't just for protocol.

Edited by SilverPulse620: 1/3/2016 5:17:43 AM*the voice is then heard again, almost sounding like it is shouting a warning. However, it grows silent again

[b]He taps the side of his helmet, activating audio dampness as he continued working[/b] Damn Admin AI. Going to have to disable it when I get the chance. [b]A wire sparks as he shifts it[/b] Almost got it...
-
[spoiler]Okay, because I'm a nice guy, and I don't want five people complaining to Monty about dead characters and plot jacking, I'm gonna intervene just this once and say you don't wanna do dat without one of dem fancy hazmat suits.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]I don't need no old dangled hazmat suit His armor can filter toxins And he doesn't need to breathe Why?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Lets just say most of the air on the station is... Hazardous.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Eh... He doesn't have to breathe, but I won't open it so I don't kill the others[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]K What next[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]I dunno[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Do something else[/spoiler]
-
[b]Joshua goes to his comms and attempts to make contact.[/b]
-
You are met only with an automated replay. The voice is gruff and authoritative. [b][i]///WARNING. THIS STATION IS UNDER MILITARY QUARANTINE. PRESENT YOUR OVERRIDE CODES OR BE FIRED UPON.///[/i][/b]
-
"Uhh... Override codes? Can you specify?" [b]He starts to access the .EXE file again.[/b]
-
Edited by Zone-tan: 1/3/2016 1:40:40 AM[spoiler]Hold on, wrong person.[/spoiler]
-
[b]He sends a copy of both files whilst putting distance between him and the station.[/b]
-
The EXE file suddenly opens... And begins decrypting [i]itself.[/i] A dial tone plays, and the tone immediately switches from harsh and authoritative to light and sweet. [i]///Welcome to TalonCo.'s Prima-5 station, home of the prestigious Europa project! Due to technical difficulties at the moment, we only have a few docking ports open at the moment. Please, feel free to dock at any of the authorized bays!///[/i] A 3D map of the station's outer hull appears on the screen. Several dots light up, displaying as Quarantine Level Red and Yellow. Only one port seems to light up as All Clear Green: the BioScience Division. The dock is a flat, smooth plate on the hull, with an elevator for personnel and cargo access next to it to convey supplies. There seems to be a slight atmosphere, so even without a space suit, there should be more than enough air to keep you alive while you go inside.
-
"Looks like a safe place to park." [b]He lands his ship slowly, wary of a trap, then exits and calmly and heads to the elevator.[/b]
-
The air is slightly thin, but it's nothing to worry about— just need to take deeper breaths. You enter the elevator with the Mysterious Man, but it seems the others are held up. No matter— they'll catch up. The elevator goes down, and some cheery music begins playing. Before long, it comes to a halt, and the doors open. [i]///Welcome to TalonCo.'s Prima-5, Dr. ~bzzzzzt~! A representative will be with you shortly in order to give you a local tour. Regarding Station-Wide travel, please consult your local subway operator, or talk to one of our many friendly guides!///[/i] The room you're in is arranged in a sort of window pattern: a large room with four smaller rooms located within. The elevator is located at the farthest left corner of the back wall, while the exit into the station is at the center of the front wall. The left wall has a door leading to... Somewhere. The windows are on lockdown mode and are covered by steel panes. The four rooms in the center each have one door— the ones to your left have their doors facing the left wall, and the ones to your right are facing the right wall. All doors are unlocked, except for the upper left room, the left room farthest from you.
-
[b]He enters the closest room on the right and looks around.[/b]
-
It seems to be a normal office. Now that you're closer to the top right room, you realize its walls are made of glass. Inside are five hazmat suits lined up on the wall opposite the entrance, locked away in glass cases. There's also a tool cart on one side of the room, and an odd-looking desk with a handle rising out of the side which would usually contain filing cabinets on the other.
-
[b]He looks around for others before interacting with the handle.[/b]
-
[spoiler]Your current room or the glass room?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]uhhh... Wherever the handle was[/spoiler]
-
The handle is in the center of the top of the left side. Below the handle, where filing cabinets would usually go, is a safe wheel on a steel door to the desk's innards. On the outer ring of the handle, there's some writing: TURN AND PULL TO ACTIVATE.
