Out of the Freezer"Okay." she hastily replies. Annis will search for vents or other small crawl spaces she could go in.
Annis spends a few minutes crawling around and over the rubble and eventually disappears from sight. You manage to find a tunnel that seems to have been dug by some type of large rodent, and you can see light not too far ahead of yourself. Crawling under and over the rocks and dirt through the animal tunnel deposits you on the outside of the cyro-chamber door just as you hear a very loud bang come from the other side of said door. From this side you can see that at some point in the past someone chained and padlocked the door shut, which is what is keeping it closed now. Looking around the locker room that you find yourself in, you can see that most of the lockers have been broken open and looted a very long time ago as they are both rusted and collapsing in on themselves. As well, you see that the door out the other side of the locker room is hanging ajar with it's hinges bent and broken. You also hear under the sound of grinding machinery and the blaring sirens what sounds like the scurrying of furry feet. You also hear the sound of falling chains and turn back to see that the ancient padlock and chain finally gave way under decades of rust and the insistence of the doors servos as it slides open triumphantly.

Ignore everyone. Run towards the reactor.
You try your hardest to ignore everyone but they seem to continue existing despite your best attempts. However after a few moments of internal turmoil you decide to run towards where the reactor should be. This in turn causes you to run face first into the jammed door and you fall to the ground bleeding slightly. Once your eyes blink away the tears however you see that the door is now open.

"Hmmm" John said as he took in the scene. Ceiling? Too high. Door? Seems dangerous. Rebar? Might make good weapon, grab some if I can. Corpses? YES! I examine the corpses and debris for any pieces of cybernetic enhancement. Tons of people should have some sort of modification, so perhaps I can necro some of it. (This doesn't seem like John's first cyber grave robbery).
After a few minutes of rifling through corpses you manage to find an ancient skull that has the gleam of wiring clearly visible through the eye socket. With a swift bash you break the skull apart and remove what appears to be a large net of wires designed to lay over-top ones brain but beneath the skull, as well you find the eye-socket attachment for the device which seems to be a relatively advanced module from your cursory inspection. Your celebration is slightly short lived however as you realize that preforming brain surgery on oneself would be next to impossible, though perhaps you can find someone to assist you later. As you contemplate this you hear a loud bang as one of the others runs face first into the jammed door which then slides open a few moments later.

"Gosh, this place is awful! What happened? Maybe the robots can help us out of here. I think we should wait for rescue, guys.

Does anyone have an energy bar?
Ox looks around for a source of food. If he sees some clothing, he'll remember he's mostly naked and wear whatever he finds that fits, more or less.
As you wander about looking for food and clothing, you manage to spot what could feasibly be both hiding in one corner of the room, before you cowers a rat the size of a large dog. As far as you can tell it seems to be in pain from the extremely loud siren, if only you had a knife you could cut it up, skin it and make some rat fur pants. On the other hand you think to yourself, a rat might make a suitable replacement for a traveling dog companion and maybe the robotic masters of the future keep them as pets. You are undecided on this fact and only barely manage to notice that the door finally slides open out of the room.
"Perhaps. Tell you what, Ill check out the door while you see if there are any other exits. Perhaps theres some sorta crawlspace for utilities..."
Examine door
As the little girl hurries off to look for any potential exits you busy yourself examining the door, it takes some time but you manage to open the control panel for it's circuitry. A few minutes of jabbing the wires around later and the door slides open to reveal the room beyond. Your excitement is curbed however as you see that the locker room was ransacked at some point long ago, though if you take the time to find it you hold out hope that your locker may still be in one piece.
