Who: Seymour + Wolfgang Sweetsly
Where: In spacesuits outside the Blue Dwarf
When: As the Starbugs attack the turrets
<snip>
The Starbug flew towards the Blue Dwarf and barrel-rolled as it did so, firing
several shots at the closest turret. The exterior gun exploded, sending debris
all over the Blue Dwarf.
"I hope that lunatic is careful. My apartment's on this side of the ship!" Said
Seymour.
"Can we go now?" Asked Wolfgang.
Seymour agreed and they engaged jetpacks at top speed towards the Blue Dwarf.
But Wolfgang's spacesuit was corroding away....
<end snip>
With all the Blue Dwarf's turrets distracted by the attacking Starbugs, Seymour and Wolfgang headed directly towards the Blue Dwarf. The jetpacks on their spacesuits accelerating them at impressive speeds.
A Starbug flew alongside Seymour, released a barrage of laserfire at the Blue Dwarf, and then dodged upwards to avoid some return fire.
"Mister Chrysler, ill you please take this someplace else, You're drawing attention to me!" Seymour complained through his radio. The Starbug then flew directly in front of Seymour and slowed down, making Seymour fly dangerously close to the Starbugs engines.
"Mister Chrysler, you just cut me up!"
There was a quick apology over the radio and the Starbug accelerated, turning off to the left, and running along the extremity of the Bleu Dwarf's hull, exploding a turret as it did so.
Seymour looked into the distance and saw the tiny figures of Mk10 and Rosette heading towards a hole in the Blue Dwarf's hull. "Over there!" He called to Sweetsly, who was just behind him.
"Ve vill never make it!" The German replied. "It's closing already!"
He was right, the breach of the hull was already being sealed by a thick metal emergency bulkhead slowly closing up the gap.
An emergency warning light on Wolfgang's suit told him that he was going to loose air pressure soon. The bacteria was eating away at the only thing protecting him from depressurisation.
"Niples to Mk10, Niples to MK10, come in please." Seymour said over the radio.
"Rosette here Seymour." Came Rosette's voice back.
"Oh. I didn't want you. I don't trust people who can turn into eight foot killing insects. Is Mk10 there?"
"Screw you Seymour." Rosette said.
"Hello!" Said the optimistic Mk10 in his tinny robotic voice.
"Can you enter the access codes to let us in? Mr Steetsly's suit is as reliable as it is fashionable." There was a pause. "Meaning it's going to depressurise any minute now!"
"Which door shall I open?" Asked Mk10.
"Any. The closest. Just let us in!" Said Wolfgang.
Seymour and Wolfgang were now close enough to the Blue Dwarf's hull that they could touch it. Seymour fancied even hugging it, but didn't want to look odd. They just couldn't get in.
<Tag Rosette or Mk10, let us on.. somehow! >
