CONTEMPLATE LIFE
EXAMINE STRANGE DEVICE

[Game Hunter]

Really? No one's gonna check the mod we just got?

LOOK BLUE MOD BOX

[raekuul]

You contemplate life. You wonder if the hell you are currently condemned to is retribution for misdeeds in a past life. Or in the past of this life. Whatever.

You examine the strange device. It is a cube, approximately four inches wide, with a blue button on one face. The device is not anchored to anything. It has a worn off logo that resembles the UAC emblem, though you can't clearly make out the words.

You extract your Blue Mod Box and inspect it. The materials contained within can be used as makeshift armor repair, or can be adapted to increase how much power one of your weapons can deal. There is only enough material for one meaningful modification.

You get the feeling that somebody is watching you...

SEARCH STRANGE ROOM

It's best to see if there are cameras or other stuff around. I don't like this feeling.

[raekuul]

You look around. You can no longer see the door as anything other than wall, though you know roughly where it is. The only things you can see in this room are the strange device and a light fixture.

You get the feeling that somebody is watching you...

SHOOT LIGHT FIXTURE WITH PISTOL

[raekuul]

I hope you know what you're doing, as you only have 3 actions of Darkvision Goggles left...

You shoot the light fixture. The lights go out, and your Darkvision Goggles kick in automatically.

You no longer feel watched. You feel paranoid.

CONTEMPLATE DEATH
PUSH THE BLUE BUTTON

[raekuul]

You contemplate death. If Hell is where you're going anyway, would it really matter if you arrived there dead or not?

You push the blue button. Space distorts around you, and you feel yanked away in a direction that does not exist...

As you regain an awareness of your surroundings, you realize that you are in a different part of Phobos. The familiar face of Mars hangs low in the sky with Deimos cowering behind the red planet. How long have you spent at the Hangar?

You become dimly aware of a stinging sensation, as well as of an itching feeling. It feels as though something is poking you. Your Darkvision Goggles appear to have turned themselves off at some point, though you cannot tell immediately how much longer they will last.

LOOK AROUND, ESPECIALLY ON THE GROUND.

[raekuul]

You look around.

You are outdoors, though where you are in relation to the UAC base is not something you know. It appears to be a secluded valley or crater or some other form of temporary shelter. The ground is surprisingly flat, and you discover that the source of the poking and stinging is what appears to be a person cleaning and treating your wounds. The person pushes your head back so that you are laying straight. The person continues working at your wounds. You cannot seem to determine the source of the itching sensation from your brief look around.

Strangely enough, the person has left the Darkvision Goggles on your face.

[Uitë]

TALK TO PERSON

[raekuul]

What do you talk about?

[Klear]

SAY "Who the hell are you?"
EXAMINE THE PERSON CAREFULLY

[raekuul]

You do not get a response, but the person keeps working at your wounds. As he moves into your field of vision, he opens his mouth and reveals that his tongue has been removed. He makes a "V" sign with his fingers and smiles, then continues patching you up.
