Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
Jojo follows the footprints with his gaze and then shouts up to the others.
"There's two sets of footprints heading from here to the complex. We should follow them."

“Let’s find Kiara and she can do it then.” Nicole says to Sam. She takes a look round but doesn’t spot anything.
“Coming!” She calls down to Jojo and then heads down to join him.

Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
Following the footprints in the snow, they move away from the dark watchtower, along the landing strip, and towards the main body of buildings, where the mobile derrick protrudes above the metallic prefabs. Passing the gigantic storage silos or tanks, there are four of them. Three marked 'Fracking Fluid', and one 'Cyclohexane.'
Approaching the main cluster of buildings, they surround a central cleared area with what appears to be a jagged crater cut out of the crust of Titan, at least thirty metres across. Piled around the derrick are several hundred metres worth of pipes, along with a now-iced over bulldozer and the top of what might be a power loader exosuit. Some piping runs all the way to the storage silos. To the south of the site is what looks like a storage shed and a prefabricated building that could be a small administrative office. On the western edge are four barracks-style buildings.

Sam looks around for tracks to see where the people from the shuttle or Kiara may have gone.

Nicole leans gingerly over the crater and looks into the hole and at the pipe work.
“Is this usual?” She asks. “What are they extracting into those storage vats?”

Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
Nicole peers over the edge of the crater, she sees several metal ladders descending down into the darkness. She struggles to make out anything else except for a diffuse blue glow. As she looks over the side, Nicole can hear a noise, well she can more feel it rather than hear it. A high-pitched throbbing noise. It has an odd cyclical pattern, speeding up and rising in pitch until reaching a crescendo and then starting over again.
Although there's a lot of pipework and tubing around the derrick, it seems to have all been pulled back from the hole in the crust, like maybe something disturbed what they were doing.
Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
Sam can't find any recent tracks, but she has a good idea what's going on with the vats.

Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
Jojo walks around the central area but doesn't see anything of note.
"Where do you think we should check next?" He says to the others.

“Looks like a load of spaghetti.” Nicole says of the pipe work. She’s too busy looking in the hole to notice anything else.

Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
The footprints they'd been following become indistinct around the site. There are tracks heading in all directions, and it is not possible to figure out in what way they went from the shuttle, assuming that was even Kiara and Li.
Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
"They've been fracking here!" says Sam. "That's how they're getting the cyclohexane they need to make plastics, but it can contaminate Titan's entire water supply. That's why it's illegal, and the company could be in big trouble if word got out. The fracking may be causing those tremors."

Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
Nicole looks quickly upwards.
“Never mind the fracking, let’s get under cover- there’s something big up there and it’s coming down!” She points up at the sky and looks wildly around for somewhere to dash to.

Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
Jojo looks up at the sky.
"What do you see? He says and then he looks around. "Who's fracking? What does that have to do with the alien life form? Are you two feeling different since we got here?"

Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
"The Company, who else?" says Sam."Maybe the fracking brought the alien life form to the surface, I don't know. I don't feel any different than I did before. Let's get inside, Nicole is right."

"Well I'm out of my element here so I'll just follow your lead until we find the others or the aliens." Jojo replies.
"I don't see anything falling from the sky though." He continues as he looks around.

There's nothing coming out of the sky, it remains the same hazy orange.
Re: IC - 20 - Waystation - Everyone except Kiara
Nicole stands back from the pit, rubbing the back of her neck.
“No, there’s nothing up there. How strange- it was only whilst I was looking over the pit- an image, like a warning.”

"Let's get inside the main waystation complex." Jojo offers. "Keep monitoring the radio frequencies in case someone tries to reach us. Do you think we should send a broadband message that we're here?"
