<snip>
"Ok everyone, grab your weapons and head towards it. We gotta nail it
before it catches up with MP again." yelled Jay
Rosette timidly put her hand up.
"What is it?" asked Jay
"...Can we still use the flan?"
<end snip>
Before Jay could answer, Chris Harris picked up the flan and threw it
away like a frisbee and barked orders at Rosette.
"Move it soldier, we're on a tight schedule!" He then thrust an
automatic weapon into her hands and pushed her off to fight the monster.
Rosette bumped into Efof, who was trying to look all macho to Fferna
by swinging the gun around his finger.
"Is he always like that?" she asked the pair of aliens.
"What, short pink and funny looking?" Said the light blue-skinned,
four-armed alien with a cock on his head.
"No
I mean
that angry."
"Oh he just loves away missions, it's the only time he really gets to
order people around. Plus, Phil over there used to have his job, so I
think he's trying to prove himself."
"Oh really?" Rosette turned to Phil Febuggure. "So what's it like
taking orders from someone who has your old job?"
Phil scowled and Harris prodded him in the back. "Get moving, get
moving, we're on a mission here!"
Phil grumbled and ran into the fray, shooting wildly at the monster,
thinking of Chris Harris.
Alan Danvers however was confused as the what the current plan was and
was driving a half-finished wooden squirrel towards the monster, which
accidentally caught fire from a stray grenade. He bailed and the
wooden forest-animal ploughed slowly into the guard-monster. The large
creature screamed and ran off, it's manky tendrils on fire.
Everyone stopped firing. Apart from Seymour who never fired a shot. He
held his gun out at arms length. "I'm a Royal Ambassador, why was I
given a gun? I don't want to have to get my hands dirty!"
"Alright ladies!" Called Harris, forming everyone up. "Cover us on
both sides, we're heading into the compound. There might be a few more
nasties lurking around".
The group split and formed up on either side of a large metal door
into the large building. Chris ordered Phil to kick it down, which he
tried but hurt his foot, so Phil kicked Harris.
Finally they blew the door open with a plasma grenade and all ran inside.
Jay checked the immediate area. "Looks clear." He said. "I think this
place is fully automated."
The power station was immaculately clean, it had shiny slippery floors
and brushed metal walls that almost looked like mirrors. The vain
attractive Ffionian girls that had survived seemed content in looking
at themselves in the mirror and giggling.
Unfortunately an attractive Ffionian with long blonde pigtails and
extremely skimpy bikini walked a little bit too far from the group and
was suddenly impaled by a rack of incredibly clean and sharp spikes
that sprung out of the ground.
"Oh my god!" shouted Barf, who had been perving on her at the time it
happened.
A second after it happened, Jay took a step back to avoid a
nasty-looking spinning blade that also sprung out of the floor and
started slicing the air at goolie-height.
"Looks like this place is booby-trapped." Said Jay. "Careful where you
step."
Chris Harris held up a schematic of the area they had taken from their
scans. "We need to get to the main generator, it's at the centre of
the building suspended from the roof. If we can blow that up, we bring
down the forcefield."
He led them round a corner and down a corridor with a slippery smooth
floor.
Despite being told to be careful, Efof and Fferna were mucking about
by sliding all over the floor. "We're dancing on ice!" they said
happily, until Efof backed Fferna into a wall, hitting a concealed button.
They both bit their lips.
"Now what have you done?" asked Jay in a telling-off tone.
"Nuffin'" Efof said, looking down at the ground. Fferna was looking
around and whistling.
"If you've triggered somet-" Jay was cut off as he realised they had
in fact triggered a booby-trap, the entire corridor turned into a
slippery 45 degree slope and they all slide down into a pit.
"Great, now look what you've done!" Scolded Jay. Efof cried into
Fferna's shoulder, who scowled back at Jay.
Seymour screamed as he realised the slip down the slope had worn a
hole in the back of his trousers.
"Seymour I can see your ass!" Rosette quickly picked up on.
"No you can't."
"Yes I can, it's all fluffy and porcelain white."
Seymour went bright red and did his best to cover up the hole. He
would have backed against the wall but was worried about setting off
another trap.
They were trapped in a small pit, with slippery vertical edges, there
looked to be no visible way to climb out again.
Then, Seymour cursed them all. "Well this couldn't get much worse!" He
said.
Everyone glared at him.
"What? What did I say?" he said.
A short moment later, a mechanical whirring sound made them look up. A
shiny metal spinning blade as wide as the room they were in was
descending down upon them, spinning incredibly fast.
<OOC Tag! Who wants to get us out of this mess and possibly into
another trap? Anything goes, it's up to whoever posts first! >
