The maximal spaceport '99....
"Level one-A secured.No sign of maximal life-forms detected,"said the Predacon as he paced relentlessly down the hallway leading to hydroponics.From behind the pressure sealants that Amanda hid behind she waited patiently for the beast to finish his scans and move on.
Only minutes ago the Predacons had covertly entered the spaceport and disengaged the ports defenses.How she didnt know.Next they proceeded to destroy or deactivate the remaining maximals.Now having gained control of the station they were engaged in some new plot to overtake the maximals.
"No matter to me,"she thought to herself as she realized the predacon had entered the far chamber of the hallway and was out of scanning range of her life signs."I don't believe he would have picked me up anyways.It seems they're only scanning for maximals right now,"she said to herself as she vaulted her limber frame over the containers stacked around her.Looking around her she checked her surroundings before opening her arms bio-implanted computer relay.Relying on the devices virtual viewscreen was a hassle but a neccessary precaution since any damage incurred by weapons fire to her cybernetics could damage her brain if she were to lapse into symbiont mode.Using the interface on her arm she unsheathed the control parameters and commanded a low-level search of her immediate facilities."No penetration beyond the bulkheads,"her computer read out along the screen.She cursed this due to the fact that she could only see what endangered her room for room."The scientists had obviously not taken the composite material of the stations construct into consideration when outfitting her for this mission,"she amended as she violently shut her computer link down."No matter," she said to herself as she climbed to the edge of the pressure sealant tanks some where turned on their side during the seizing of the station.Obviously this was due to the crumpled maximal that lay in the far corner in a still smoldering heap."Put up the good fight did you?"she mocked at the dead scrap metal then spit on it."Well one less robot is better than two,"she reminded herself as undid her bindings and let her secondary exosuit fall to the ground.Throwing the coverings between the tanks she lowered herself to the floor.As soon as her foot touched the floor an alarm went off in her head."Scanners indicating silent alarm.Then the station computer must be targeting..."at this thought she swept her head around at the sound of some muffled motor whirring amidst the electronics.Her eye caught the glimpse of some gun-like apparatus turned her direction.The apparatus fired as she ducked out of the way at superhuman speed.Still, this was not quick enough for the projectile hit her in the midsection and sent her cascading back into the huge sealant tanks.Her body ricocheted at the impact but the canisters never showed even a sign of wavering.As the room around her grew darker she heard two of the Predacons bickering at each other about the alarm as they approached her vicinity.The room around her faded until she was no longer conscious...
What do you do now?
