"Nope." Blackstar finishes, and changes to Lazarus. Must be on shuffle.

"Want to do anything? I'm not supposed to leave until I have [i]something[/i]..."

I get up and walk back to the radio. As I set my hand down on it, a high pitched noise emanates, so strong it sends you to the floor in pain. I run out of the room, knocking down the guards and grabbing one of their guns before running off.

Edited by Spyglass: 1/13/2016 12:50:24 PMAfter recovering from the initial shock, Eric looks down as he feels a vibration from his tac-pad: an update from command. Well, more like the sent him Karina's file, [i]after[/i] the interrogation. Assholes... Still, it had some useful information in it, some that he could take advantage of. "Hey, whoever the hell you guys are: shut off the doors to the hangar. She's a pilot, and I don't need anyone getting off this hunk. Starting there, close every door in between us and there, so we can hopefully trap her. I'll give chase myself."
-
The info's still being downloaded. "Sir, we've shut down all the-wait, she's opening them! I don't know how, but they're opening for her!"
-
He sighs and cocks his pistol, loading in a clip of stun rounds. Resembling a bullet with yellow strips, each round would actually detonate when in proximity to a target, effectively flash-banging them. They hurt like hell too, but that was only temporary. Sarcastically, Eric spits out, "Great job you guys. Keep up the good work." As he gives chase. Instead of following the route she likely took, he chose to cut her off at the doorway she would appear next, thanks to him knowing the ship's layout. She should run right into him...
-
Suddenly, the door in front of you locks shut.
-
Eric shoots the control panel, and it reopens. Perhaps she was opening and closing the doors randomly, but she could likely detect where he was. In that case, it was smarter for him to close the gap on her. Activating a security terminal, he scans the cameras for a glimpse of her.
-
All the cameras have been shut off except the one monitoring you.
-
Eric gives it the finger, and runs through to where he estimates she will be. Meanwhile, he gives the order for guards to lock down the deck, and to converge on her locations. He had no idea who she was, but if she could hack the ship, then she was probably important. A quick thermal scan reveals her location to him relatively quickly.
-
I'm running into the hanger as I seem to throw something. Then, the men in the hanger start collapsing, tracing my steps, you realize I had stopped in experimental weaponry. Those men could be in serious danger.
-
Without hesitating, Eric fires off several shots with his pistol, with rounds that would render her unconscious with a hit or two. Despite what she had done to the men, he still wouldn't have felt right killing her. As he puts in another clip, he activates his tac-pad, and overrides the clearance on a nearby dropship. Suddenly in front of her, a ship's turrets whirr to life and take aim. At such close range, it would be an almost guaranteed hit. Meanwhile, Eric slowly circles back towards her.
-
The bullets barely miss, and as the turret takes aim, I slowly walk up to it, then gently touch it. The turret deactivates and the ship's cargo door opens. I touch a panel on the wall and the loading bay door opens up. I quickly run into the ship, the door shutting behind me. By the time you get into the hangar, the ship is already beginning to take off.
