Paradise Violated
You don’t hesitate, you shoot Alyssa. She falls, grabbing on to a nearby table and looks at you once in disbelief with a hurt expression, one you’ve never seen her display before.
“I…never…thought that you’d…”
A second shot is fired by Salo killing her and ending whatever last words she was going to say.
“Captain, my apologies for questioning your loyalty to humanity before. I see I was wrong, I thank you for saving my life.” Salo remarks.
You immediately shake the strange feelings that have been invading your mind again. Something was attempting to make you weak. Alyssa was the last alien influence holding you back from achieving complete confidence in human superiority. By getting rid of her, you no longer have any impediments of your goal. The Xont technology WILL be taken for the Empire!
There’s still the matter of getting out of here though, fortunately Dobbs may have found a way to do that.
“Um, sir? I think I remembered what some of these symbols were supposed to mean, I think I can figured out how we can turn them on without them attacking us. I remember a Xont legend about “Silver Sentinels”, and that’s what these things look like. I guess they were created by the Xont primarily to act as guards for scientists, if we don’t look like a threat then they shouldn’t attack us. In fact they’ll probably start attacking those things lurking outside.”
“Then DO IT!”
“We have to look harmless, if they detect us holding guns, we’ll be perceived as a threat as well.”
“So what do we do to look harmless?”
“Drop all our guns.”
You aren’t enthusiastic about that idea, but Salo displaying a slightly different side of himself, says as long as the will of the Emperor is guiding you all, you have nothing to fear. The destiny of humanity is inevitable. You acknowledge that indeed humanity is going to succeed this day.
“Let’s do it, drop your weapons everyone, and the Emperor’s Will, will protect us.”
Your team reluctantly drops their weapons as Dobbs presses a few buttons on the computer. Red lights flicker on in the Sentinels’ eye sockets.
“SCANNING…SCANNING…ALERT! GENETIC EXPERIMENTS FROM LAB 4 HAVE ESCAPED! THREAT LEVEL 10! TERMINATE HOSTILES!” their metallic voices say in unison.
The Sentinels move quickly to the doorway and begin to open fire on the feeding creatures. You can see the creatures fight back, but whatever the Sentinels are made out of must be strong indeed. Soon the battle moves far enough from the doorway, and you can hear the Sentinels hunting down the rest of the abominations. You climb over the dead creature in the doorway and take a quick look only to see more dead monsters. The Sentinels do their jobs very efficiently.
You could take this opportunity to try to escape or explore a bit more.
