Rift Station: Open Worlds
Nothing like going with the flow, baby. I toss the unlocked shackles aside like a rockstar with a drugged-up groupie. I join the mad scramble towards the exit doorway. The laser fire seems to be getting closer, so I push, rudely, past a few of the slower inmates. Who has time for manners at a time like this?
There's nothing within in reach to arm myself with, I'm certainly not desperate enough to use outdated eating utensils as a weapon just yet. Man, what I would give for a reliable blaster at a time like this. I haven't been this disarmed since I drunkenly got a tattoo on 'dis arm.
I follow the scrambling prisoners into the hallway. Here, the passageway is too narrow, and progress is brought to a halt. I run into the man in front of me and the man behind me does the same to me. The hallway lights up with red laser fire. The poor souls at the back of the line get instantly vaporized. It doesn't take long for security to mow down the group of prisoners, myself included. I see a red flash and my vision goes black....
..I awake to a golden room full of scantily-clad Middle-eastern virgins. They dance around me seductively, like I'm their only reason for existence. I return their gesture by slowly unraveling the turban at my head. Oh wait, that's not this story. My journey ends in a transport ship heading for the Rift.
