"Something is off. this man is acting like i'm speaking gibberish...
You said there was some sort of bomb? Maybe it was a chemical agent. Possibly sonic mind-wiping.
It seems rather unlikely though, who would have the tech to do that?"
he would let out a frustrated sigh, dragging the man to the elevator, pressing the button for ground floor, and shoving the poor sod in. he might of been a hostile, but he's nothing more than a civvie now. Inform command about the situation and discovery, then proceed with my teammates.
It's simple enough; he doesn't resist, he doesn't resist as you take him to the elevator, ride the way down, and then push him out. He simply lays there; he only begins to stir when the elevator doors are almost closed, as you see him begin to get to his feet.
When you mention the device to Command, there's a silence. You hear the radio fuzz disappear as they close their end of the connection momentarily; the open channel, that is supposed to remain open for the entire duration of the mission.
They reopen it after a too-long pause. "Destroy the device. Do not attempt to examine it. It must
not be retrieved. Out."
Destroy the device. Whatever it is, it probably helps those savages. Somehow.
"Maybe we should get a better look at the thing before we smash it? Just to see what it does and how it works."
Keep watch, proceed into the room Tomasque is in.
Zormod arrives, as Tomasque is taking aim at the device. At first glance, it appears no worse the wear for having taken several direct strikes from the butt of Tomasque's gun. However, there's a small opening in the corner, where one of the nearly invisible seams along the edges has been busted open.
After a brief but intense struggle, you manage to open the device; it looks like a fairly standard piece of electronics; circuits and black boxes, light green traces on top of a green-printed piece of plastic.
What's not normal, however, is what appears to be a small petri dish with whitish-grey tissue, marbled with dark red veins, attached to the board like some sort of bizarre reverse-cyborg.
