Brett is on the walkway above the river of sludge. He is about 30ft away from the group of Troubleshooters who are standing by the door that you came through. there is a walkway along both walls of the tubular tunnel.

approximately 70ft downstream from Brett in the middle of the sludge stream is Will-O-WSP. He is making his way against the current towards Brett. The large thing in the sludge is moving much faster against the stream towards him and will most likely reach him before he can get back to Brett.

Brett's is able to find the pistol and RED barrel in his pack, but it has not been assembled. Twisting the barrel into the body of the pistol requires two hands and he is already holding the multi-corder.

The fangy thing looks unlike anything Brett has ever seen before. It is about the size of a microwave, completley covered in scruffy/matted hair and does not appear to have any inorganic makeup at all.

It attacks Brett with it's mouth.

Brett has been bitten by the Fangy Thing and his left leg (and jumpsuit) has been lacerated

"Ow!" Brett takes a quick look at the troubleshooters behind him, before taking his free hand out-stretching it towards the Fangy Thing. Meanwhile, he carefully puts down his multicorder, and begins fixing the Red barrel with the laser pistol body.

Hearing Brett being attacked, I also assemble the laser pistol, while keeping an eye on that sludgy thing coming my way
OOC:
those drawings were really useful! My idea of what was happening was a bit different ;)

The dark fangy thing appears to launch itself from the walkway and down into the sludge below. You hear a sploosh as it hits the surface.

Will is twisting his barrel into the pistol body when the large sludge object reaches him. It's mass disappears beneath the surface of the sludge stream.

OOC:
Am I dead? I’m I alive? What am I? Who am I?
Clearly the toxic fumes and unbearable smell are bad enough to trigger a philosophical existential crisis ;)
I stay very still as I watch that big object that moved upstream disappear under the sludge. "Guys... I have a bad feeling about this place"

After assembling the red barreled laser pistol, Brett picks up his multicorder and attempts to find and shoot at the creature in the sludge.
OOC:
Btw, would I know about the other thing in the sludge as well?

Will-O-WSP feels something happen.

Brett spots the fangy-thing through the viewer. It appears to be mimicking a pet-bot paddle by using it's limbs to swim in the sludge.
You hear the shutter snap sound effect as the camera takes an auto-pic.
The creature gives a Screech as you easily blast it in the hide. It begins swimming frantically

Frozen in place as soon as I feel something, I slowly finish up assembling the pistol "Guys?"

Will-O-WSP feels shooting pain as sharp jagged metal clamps down on his leg. looking down he can see that his leg is securely in the maw of a rusty metal bot that appears to be equal parts jaw and body. The hygiene officer stands waist deep in a river of $@#& with an open wound being caused by a rusty metal jaw clamped down on his leg.

He can just see the stamp on the top of the bot's head: G8R-BOT-008
OOC:
None of the other troubleshooters can see the G8R-BOT from their current locations

"Damn rusty bots! This is way you need to clean them twice a week!", I shoot the robot as soon as I can and, just before pushing the trigger, I notice the stamp on the bot's head...

(I'm guessing that roll does it!) After shooting the bot, I notice the blood flowing down the river. "This doesn't look very hygienic...". I put my finger on it to figure how how deep and bad it is. Afterwards, I look up and shout "Can someone throw me a rope and pull me up?" then I add "and call a doctor?"
OOC:
Is there anything I should know a bout G8R-BOT-008? What type of bot is it? How old? It's price? Political alignment? That sort of thing

Does shooting consume an Orange laser barrel?

Brett turns to the others. "Come on guys, help me!" He then gives a sigh and quickly moves over and places down the things he is carrying, and begins to perform a lifting motion towards Will.

"Greetings citizens! All hail friend Computer, who has sent me to assist you in your investigations! From the same entrance where the rest of them entered the sewer came Cart-O-YRE-1. "Perhaps you require an equipment inspection at this moment to ensure our success. Declare your equipment status please!" Cart eyed the metal bot chomping on Will's leg. "Damaging bots with your leg could be considered treasonous behaviour. I shall valiantly offer to repair the bot as friend Computer sees fit."
OOC:
Assuming that the group is able to now see what's attacking Will.

Will-O-WSP fires a blast to the head of the G8R. It tears away from his leg and disappears back into the sludge.
He checks the damage on his leg. The cut is surprisingly deep and he is in danger of losing a lot of blood. Considering the situation, He is almost certain that it will become infected if not treated.

Brett-R-WYD places his laser and his multicorder down on the walkway.
then he stares intently toward Will and waves his hand in a lifting motion. Will gives Brett a suspicious look.
Then Brett slip and fall into the sludge leaving his laser and multicorder up on the walkway.


Cart-O-YRE is close enough to hear and be heard but not close enough to see the bot inside the mostly dark tunnel. He does see the orange laser blast.

Dave-R, and Will-R-WTN remain by the doorway.

Wyatt-R-VSC begins whistling atonally along as "I think I'm a Clone Now" starts up again somewhere off in the distance.
OOC:
Will-O-WSP - Would you like to check to see if your barrel has a charge remaining by firing it in a random direction?

Oh! Hello new equipment guy! All hail friend Computer! I look up at Cart-O-YRE-1 and greet him. "Apologies for damaging equipment, but I fear it was a traitorous mutant bot wired by those unhygienic communist bastards!". I turn to help Brett-R-WYD stand up after his unexpected fall. By the way, could you give us a hand to get out of here? I need my blaster checked...and a doctor... and maybe a second breakfast
OOC:
Having the equipment guy just show up, I'll pass shooting at random by trying to use it as an excuse to be rescued ;)

"Gimping gonads! Shots fired!" Cart wondered what the commotion was, not being able to see Will-O-WSP nor Brett-R-WYD clearly. He wondered aloud why the others standing nearer the entrance made no move to assist, as it was clear that Will-O and Brett-R had called for them."Let us assist our teammates in our continuing loyalty to the mission. While you do so, I will recover the equipment and check on Will-O's blaster, as requested." Cart proceeded forward carefully towards the direction of Will-O and Brett-R's voices and the light of the blast. When he reached the spot where Brett had slipped, he picked up Brett-R's laser and multicorder first, before preparing to help Will-O.

"Argh! Damn this water!" Brett began to splash about, trying to keep afloat. "Oh hey, you're the new equipment guy? Would you mind helping us out?"
