USH'S MATRIX GAME 2006 FOURTH ASSIGNMENT (COMBAT)- 'The Real'

"Woooo, I'm a big scary sentinel..." comes an Irish voice.

"I didn't know Sentinels were Irish," Melis says, "Finn."

Your vision comes somewhat into focus.

You're outside. Well... no, inside, but out the ship. Err. In the tunnels.

The flame in front of you is actually a small fire, lit inside this wide-open and slightly misty tunnel.

Barb- healthy enough, though hurt with a sentinel slash across his front- is nearby. Finn is handling around a whiskey flask, although he;s taken a moment to prod you into awareness with a dead sentinel nearby.

Quite a lot of dead sentinels around actually.

"Where are we?" Melis asks. "What happened?"

Is Melis still restrained?

You aren't restrained; you are in splints. You're quite injured.

"About time you woke up, so it was."

"How long have I been out?"

Hawk winces with pain, and opens his eyes. It takes a few moments of blinking before he believes that yes, he really has opened his eyes. Getting up slowly, he feels the area immediately around him, deciding for the moment that shouting may not be the best idea.

Ahhh! Sentinel!

Wait... dead sentinel. Still, that's pretty scary in the dark.

---

"Couple of hours" says Finn.

Hawk's hand jerks back involuntarily at touching the Sentinel. "Well this is fun..." He sees what standing up does.

It hits your head on a low beam.

Ow. Okay, Hawk places his hand on the obviously evil beam, and slowly follows it in one direction, hoping it will lead him safely to a wall.

"Geez," Melis replies. "And yet I don't feel rested. Awesome."

She takes a look at the ship.

You found a wall, Hawk.

No ship in sight, Melis.

Following the wall, now, to get a feel for the area and, with luck, find some sort of exit.

No, you just tripped over a sentinel there.

I'm guessing Hawk isn't carrying anything that could be used for light? How about flashlights that were on the ship?

Well, you'll need some light in order to find them.

Sounds like a job for the Philo team to ponder. Maybe following the wall in the other direction would work better?

Well, these walls are 'new' as it were. They aren't very helpful.

So did everyone make it out alive?
