Leaving Under Orders

The squad exits the bridge and makes their way to midship before entering a small room just off the main corridor. The displays on the two ETS chambers show the message,"Destination Set - PFS Marlborough ETS"

LeadBeast directs the squad," Jonal and Ben, you two are first. Guns up people we don't know what is on that ship."

There is the sound of snaps and clicks as ammo mags are locked in and safety's are disengaged. The two step into the chambers and the doors slide shut. There is a crack of energy and a blinding flash of light before the chambers are empty and the doors open.

LeadBeast throws the box to Luckie, "Stow the AI." Luckie slips it into a gear bag.

LeadBeast smiles," Hope you had you breakfast, we're up."

Luckie grins,"Bowl of nails and milk like every morning."
"Pish.. you use milk?", LeadBeast ask.
"Yeah, so?" , queries Luckie.
"Wimp."grins LeadBeast. Luckie laughs.

They step into the chambers and the doors close. A bright light and sense of disorientation before the doors open again.

Another small room. The paint and wall panels have changed. They were on the Marlborough.

Jonal and Ben had already taken up position at the door.

"What's the plan here, Boss?", ask Jonal.
