Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
Lucius was able to moisten the toilet paper, and it stuck to the eye, covering it.
Brook and Elizabeth waited in their respective cells.
Robert passed through the antechamber and out into the corridor, where he started making his way to the cafeteria. Karin, Heinrich, Alison, and Story remained in the antechamber and awaited Colonel Patel's response. When it came, it was General Pryce that spoke and not the colonel.
"Sergeant Kohl," said the general, "in the absence of Lt. Colonel Bruce, you are in charge of security. I trust you as much as I trust him, and you make a strong case. I know Colonel Patel does not agree with me, but I am the one in charge. Story and the other intruders may be let out of their cells. Just see to it that you keep an eye on them and make sure they have a security escort at all times. Any help that they can provide is welcome."
A blonde woman in her late thirties swept into the antechamber from the corridor outside, the door sliding shut behind her. She walked up to Story and sized him up. "I am Major Natalia Orlova," she said, "chief science officer on Styx Base."

"Thank you, sir," Heinrich says to the general, his eyes slightly wide at the unexpected conversation with the top man at the base. "I am sure the prisoners will appreciate this."
Heinrich turns back to the door of the antechamber and sees Major Orlova enter. "I apologize for not getting back to you, Major, but as you know it's been a bit... tense recently." He flashes a half-hearted smile.
"If you'll excuse me for a moment?" He walks back through the corridor to the cells, and opens Brook's, Elizabeth's, and Lucius' cells.
"Come on, then."

Brook looks at the open door, then peeks out, looking to the sergeant. "Where are we going?" She quickly steps into the corridor in case he suddenly changes his mind. Seeing her friends are also let out, she looks relieved and hurries over to them. "Elisabeth! Lucius! Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Brook," says Elizabeth, getting to her feet and stepping out into the corridor uneasily. "How are you?"
Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
Karin is quietly relieved at the general's decision, she throws a short salute as the major enters the antechamber. "Maam." She turns back to the monitors but is listening to how Story introduces himself to Major Orlova.

"Not stuck in a box, at least," Brook answers Elisabeth. "Do you know what's going on?"

"There's been an incident," says Heinrich, still standing by the newly-freed newcomers. "When the Lt.-Col. went out to retrieve the ship, he was attacked by a group of... creatures of some sort. They've apparently taken him to their lair. One of the creatures was killed by Capt. Desjardins. Story's out front speaking to Maj. Orlova."

"Is there any way that we can help?" asks Elizabeth, somewhat doubtfully. "I heard some of the discussion between Story and the others from my cell, so it is a relief to find out more about what is happening, even if it sounds worrying."

Story turns his attention to the Major. "Chief science officer you say? It's a pleasure to meet you. You can call me Story." Smiles. "What can you tell me about the aliens? Do they appear to be natives?"

"I know next to nothing about these creatures, Mr. Story" said Natalia. "I was hoping you might have some insights. They do seem to have been here before we arrived, however. I would also like to know more about your transport and how it works. With technology like that, we could revolutionise space travel."

"Please just call me Story. Concerning the aliens, which I use loosely being that we're all aliens here on Pluto, we need to get into that cave and see what's going on. As to me transport that can wait... the life of Lt. Col. Bruce is at stake and we must resolve that situation first." Looks back at the monitors. "Is the reconnaissance drone from the base on the way?"

Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
Lucius smiled as he was let out and nodded to Brook and Elizabeth, "I am satisfactory. Although, with they way they greet newcomers, it is no big surprise that the aliens appear hostile. Not all visitors are as mild mannered as us." He looked to the one that let them out and said, "Thank you. I do hope you intend on taking us someplace secure. I don't mean prison secure, I mean secure from the aliens should they decide to infiltrate your facility and attack. Really am wishing you all just would have let us be on our way, but I'm guessing that still isn't an option. At the very least, hopefully we can get that food you promised us."
Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
Brook hugs both Elisabeth and Lucius, then looks to sergeant Kohl. "Can we go where Story is?"
Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
"Yes, the cave," said Natalia. "You're right, we need to send people out to explore it. The only ship we have currently at the base is Charon's Ferry, the one that brought us here in the first place. It's also the only one that can get us all back to Earth, so we can't risk it. Though I take it that your own craft can make the journey, but it looks barely big enough to hold the four of you. We just recovered the Persephone, which is also capable of making the return journey, but it only holds three. The Demeter is incapable of interplanetary travel and is a one-person craft. When those vessels return, then we could send a team out to the cave."

"Of course," Heinrich says, gesturing into the hallway and following them back out to the antechamber.
Overhearing the discussion of the various craft, he speaks up. "Pardon the interruption, Major, but part of my arrangement with Gen. Pryce to get these people 'released' that they must have a security escort at all times. If any of them are in this party, at least one of us security officers must as well."

Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
Karin looks up from the monitors as the antechamber becomes quite busy.
"While we are waiting for the ships to come back, can you suggest an area where we can monitor what's going on at the cave but is bigger and more comfortable than here? Somewhere where the sergeant can maintain security but everyone can get something to eat before heading out."

Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
"Yes, of course, Sergeant," said Natalia. "I don't think the general will wish to risk you as well. If anything happened to you, Security would be leaderless." She nodded to Karin. "The best place to observe what's going on at the cave would be from Ground Control. The monitors and scanners there are designed for it."
Private Robert MacCrimmon returned from the hallway carrying a tray full of food and beverages.

Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
Brook looks curiously at the monitors, and smiles relieved when she sees Story in the control room.
Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
"Okay chow's up everyone, best eat it while it's hot. Thanks for fetching it Private MacCrimmon." Karin grabs a cup and moves to the corner. She opens her bag and proceeds to upload the visitors' data to the hard drive in the lab. She adds some personal notes to the reports and a reminder to check up on Colonel Patel.

Re: IC-Ep 2-Questions and Answers(Everyone else)
Lucius helps himself to some of the food, tasting it and having a rather disapproving look on his face. It just tasted off to him, as he was not accustomed to eating synthetic produce. It was nothing like the food he was used to, nor the food of the 30's. But he was hungry enough to eat it regardless. He just hoped his stomach wouldn't disagree later. To Story, Lucius asked, "Is there anything I can do to help?"
