4952 Delcia

As Sorrack is starting to look around for a note the occupants might have left themselves, Nero starts punching "numbers" at random. This is when you hear the doors through which you went through close up and all the monitors on the consoles along the windows light up, all lights will come on, and every screens will blink a message in the same alien language. Below this message, even more alien symbols appear, but those seem to change with each passing seconds... In the meantime, a small panel opens up on the armrest of the chair, and a small needle slides out.

Sorrack grips a little bit of his skin and twists. A moment later he is holding a small sphere filled with liquid. He bounces it in his palm and then offers it to the group.

The needle is not striking Nero, it seems to be waiting for Nero (or perhaps Sorrack) to prick himself on the needle.

Nero pricks himself on the needle which then retracts. The screen then switches to three language. The strange alien language you do not understand, some sort of strange archaic language which might be one of the many source languages for Terran (as human characters will recognize a few words here and there), and an old form of Galactic Common (still recognizable for what it is).

The message reads as follows:

"Specimen, you have lost your way. Please return to the lower levels for your comfort. We appreciate your curiosity, but your security is paramount. Please seek an administrator to abort the self-destruct sequence."

After a minute or so, so you all have time to read and absorb the message, the screen changes back to the strange alien symbols, which keeps changing every second or so... Some sort of countdown? How long do you have left?

Sam attempts to shut down the self-destruct sequence, but on an alien computer, which alien controls, using an alien language... Sam starts pressing buttons at random but very little happens... Wait, what that a floor plan? Quick, go back, go back! How do I go back?

You see the floor plans wiz by on the computer screen, and then *CLONK!* You're in the dark, with no power and no lights.
