(That's fine and reasonable, as long as I can still get Mesk and Charro out of here on my established schedule. ^^^)

Yeah, you, unlike them, have plenty of time. Assuming your legs don't fall off or something. Try not to let that happen.

[Zako]

"Uh... Right, I forgot about that."

He was torn and in a tough situation. He could get the gun up first, but that would take both time and energy, both of which were in limited supply, and he would still have to lug the thing up the elevator ladder. Or he could just leave it here, and send all his hard work to become space dust, but possibly save time and his life.

It was a tough call, but he had to make his decision.

With deep regret, pat the gun goodbye and leave it behind. The mass reduction in weight should help me get up that cable as well as the ladder in the elevator shaft. Then climb up that cable and book it.

[Tiruin]

"Strength, don't fail me now!"

Grab hold!

Throw that cable down and find something sturdy to tie it onto for support and to aid in pulling Bishop up.

Did you get the disc?

Feyri ties the cable around one of the half dozen consoles bolted to the ground around the room and then hurls the cable down to Bishop. Bishop drops the massive cannon he's been lugging around with him and grabs hold of the cable, climbing as Feyri simultaneously pulls him up.

[Bishop str:6]
[Feyri str: 2]
Bishop, fueled by a combination of fear, adrenaline and new found strength now that he's not carrying that cannon around, climbs the rope faster then most people can run, flying up the shaft while Feyri pulls and tugs weakly on it, unable to move it an inch. He flies over the edge and into the Observation room, bowling Feyri over as he sprints for the Main elevator shaft. She follows him a moment later after, scrambling to her feet and giving chase. The pair make it to the elevator, crawl out the emergency hatch and start up the ladder.

>Jim.

You reach the HDDSM and start back toward the shuttle, making it about 1/3 of the way there.

24 minutes remain.

[Tiruin]

I see you've left your gun behind...

I'm really hitting the gym when we get out. Sad to see it gone.

You remember the schematics?

Feyri typed as she climbed another rung.

She was glad that she finally labelled the suit's light amps, and light lamps. Who knew a simple scratch would make it all the better?

GTFO up that ladder, after Bishop.

Check for any dangers that might be along the way. If we get to the first floor safely, Help Jim with anything that needs help. Like the HDDSM.

[IronyOwl]

((Aw. What gun did you leave behind? I didn't know you had a cannon.))

[Zako]

((It was my monofilament bolo launcher, which I call the MBL Willis or MBL for short. The worst part of leaving it behind is that I got it for freeeee...  ))

Bishop's computer beeped but he paid it no mind, instead choosing to focus on the long upwards climb ahead.

Go go GO! GET TO DA SHUTTLE!!!

Feyri and Bishop continue all the way up the ladder and emerge on the first level. They both sprint down the path and help Jim push the HDDSM into the ship. Once there they close the hatch and strap the HDDSM in place. Nothing left to do now except tell the ship to get going and strap yourselves into stasis.

Just need the go ahead from unofficial leader Bishop to get going.

20 minutes remain.

(Screw that, I'm hitting the button myself and finishing this mission. XD No need to hold up the next mission and the people who want to play it.)

Jim helped Feyri and Bishop into stasis and set the shuttle to launch immediately, then went to get himself into stasis as well.

Good enough!

You grab bishop by the scruff of the neck and forcefully huck him into one of the stasis pods before strapping him in, inserting the various tubes and slamming the lid closed. You help Feyri in a bit more gentlemanly, and then walk to the front of the ship and set the shuttle to return to the mothership as fast as it possibly can without crushing the cargo. You hit execute and hop into your own stasis pod while the engines warm up. You close the lid and feel yourself being pressed down before the pod's anti-g system kicks in and makes you weightless. You're out a moment later.

Congrats everyone! You made it out.

Everyone who is not dead level up now, Charro can level up after we get him back and if we can manage to re-life him.

((You guys are lucky I'm paranoid and have been checking the forum every few minutes. Unfortunately, I've been ninja'd by SC and the timezone difference. How many points do we have again? 5 to attributes and 5 to skills right?))

3 for skills, 5 for attributes.

[Zako]

((Godammit, I was hoping for more in skills. Well, I guess I can make do.))

5 points in strength, 3 points in Aux.

[SeriousConcentrate]

(5 points in Willpower for me for a total of 15, 2 points in Exotic Weapons for a total of 6, and 1 point in Handiwork for a total of 1 so I don't always -1 that. Also, how many tokens are we getting? I'm hoping I can afford a new amp to play with. ^^^)
