Chapter 6 - Knock Knock

Nox leaps across the quarter meter deep 'chasm' to the ladder and begins to climb. Meebo and AD-hoc exchange bemused or perhaps bewildered glances before walking across the floor of the turbolift shaft. Ken does a peculiar eye ridge motion that passes as a Rodian eye roll.

The four of you climb the approximately 10 meters and Nox spots the manual hatch release on the bottom of the turbolift car. Moments later you've all scrambled into the car and closed the bottom hatch. It becomes obvious that this is either a freight or maybe a military lift. The walls have some scratches and the top and bottom hatches are not covered the way many civilian lifts are.

Meebo and AD-hoc are getting the hang of these doors and quickly pop the manual release. As Nox eases the door open, your helmet lights shine down the roughly 15 meter passage. There are two doors on each side of the hallway and one at the end.

Meebo and AD-hoc pop the maintenance panels for their respective doors. Once the releases are triggered, Nox and Meebo slide into the room on the right. Nox's helmet lights sweep the room, revealing two long tables with matching benches. The tables and benches appear welded to the floor and the far wall has what looks to be standard food dispensers. Nox's"Clear." sounds on everyone's comms.

At the signal, AD-hoc pulls back his door and Ken sweeps into the room. A loud explosion rocks the base as the team is swept into space. Ken's gaze picks out a fairly complete Medical room. An exam table on the right with an empty Bacta tank in the back corner. To the left, there are various cabinets and a small exercise machine.

The team moves up to the next set of doors. Nox and Meebo find what looks like an office at first. There is a desk, computer, filing cabinets, etc. But it's all on the left side of the room, beyond a divider, to the right is a 'bedroom'. A single bed is there with nightstand and storage trunk. A doorway at the back looks like it leads to a private refresher unit. It looks like some 'administrator' had the dubious luxury of working from home.

Ken and AD-hoc move into their room and discover another living space. There are 3 sets of bunk beds, along the right wall with some space in the center of the room for a 'lounge'. An L shaped couch with a table along with another small table and some chairs are placed here. A door in the back wall leads into a multi stall refresher unit. Despite the dust, the room seems to be in good order.

The four of you regroup in the hallway near the door at the end.

Meebo's examination of the office table revels no new info. Although, the neat appearance suggests that whatever happened here wasn't rushed. Everything you've seen so far, including the office, appears to have been neatly and intentionally powered off.
