The trio burst into the R&D section of the base and are greeted by gunfire from an assembled squad that's dug in further down the hall.  They dive behind the cover of two alcoves on either side of the hallway.  Silas rummages around in his pockets and tosses several metal spheres into the hallway. A few of the troops fire at the spheres, but nothing happens. The spheres begin rolling toward the assembled group and pick up speed.  As they near the group, the spheres unfurl into small spider-like drones that lunge into the group, latching on to the soldiers.  As the soldiers try to tear them off, they emit a gas which causes the troops to collapse where they stand.<br/>"What were those?"<br/>"Drone mites. Infiltration tools for incapacitating individuals. The gas dissapates in air quickly, but lasts long enough to knock a grown man out cold. We should be clear."<br/>The trio once again pushes down the hallway without meeting any more trouble.<br/>-------------------------------------------------<br/>Ninja:<br/>Cali leans back. "There is, but I think it can wait for a while. In the meantime, I was able to dig this up. " She transmits some data to Ty. "They're only partial, but these are some codes for unlocking some of your blasters capabilities. Say hi to The Black Knight when he wakes up, kay? I gotta get goin, I've got to speak with someone." She seems to divide her attention between Ty and the other individual for the moment.<br/>------------------------------------------------------------<br/>CMP:<br/>"Why yes it is," replies the box possessing individual.  They hand it to you and wander off, their task completed.<br/>Inside the box is a communication device, one which you've never seen before. The Incoming Message button is lit up. Will you answer it?<br/>----------------------------------------------<br/>Undercover:<br/>As you towel off, someone invades your personal space from behind. You can feel a gun being pressed to your back, as a soft hand clamps around your mouth."Hey Lovely. Do as I say and you won't get hurt. I need you to do something for me. I'm sure you know what the right answer is."<br/>--------------------------------------<br/>"It's your fault you know," an indistinct shadow says from within the fire.<br/>"You started this fire," says another shadow<br/>"Because of you, this once beautiful place is tarnished," says the first<br/>"You did this," says the second.<br/>"Simmer down. There is still hope for her and this place yet," a third announces<br/>"Wha? Who are you," the girl asks, confusion replacing her fear. "How did I get here? Where am I? Why am I naked?!"<br/>The only reply is silence as the shadows depart.<br/>
