"Guns are cleared!" D called a few minutes later "Head straight for us!"
Deimos ran right for them and stopped at the gate. "How come this is still locked"
"I couldn't just let some of the Resisty forces come out while Master D and Artison were working." Alexa said from D's device "I'll unlock it now."
"Be ready for a fight then you two, odds are they'll have guns ready to blow us apart." Deimos said and crouched low
D readied his sword and held Alexa behind his back.
Artison had dusted some of the ash off him then hid by the door.
The door started to make a few sounds as it unsealed, and then opened.
Deimos lunged in blind and got a mouth full of smoke. D stepped inside behind him but he couldn't see anyone; all he could make out were silhouettes of object that never moved.
Artison peered in "Our they evacuated this room because the cannons were going down and smoke was piling up."
"I guess that went better than we thought," D said "But where is everyone now?"
"Probably fallen back to second line of defense in the place." Deimos said and he started crawling under the smoke. If the smoke is still here it's probably not filtered to be used against us. The commander is clever." As he crawled about he grabbed a rifle that was left by the wall and inspected it.
"So they'd expect us to stay low?" D asked "Or did they want us blinded by the smoke?"
"Either way, we're gonna fighting with no advantage." Deimos said and then cocked the weapon ready. "Let's take back the Gigantic."
From behind a noise was starting to grow. The shouts of people and possibly even gunshots..
"Let's make haste of this." Artison added "I fear the Irken armies have found out entrance."
"Of course they have." Deimos said and then ran for the next doors.
As the three ran through out the entire facility up to the doors of the main transfer room, not one hostile was encountered.
"I have this." Artison said and placed his hands on the seam between two doors
"This just seams easier and easier by the minute." D said "Am I the only one creeped out by that?"
"No," Alexis said "I am too, Master D"
Deimos nodded "If they're not here then they all must be on The Gigantic. I doubt they're out of range yet of the space port, but unless we take too long, they may end up stealing it."
"That's how I save us some of the fleeting time." Artison said and soon pulled the doors apart.
"D, get the transfer chambers working with your A.I." Deimos said as he let him pass, and then he stood by pried doors aimed down for any irkens.
D ran for the consuls and let Alexa access it "Is that ship still in range?"
Alexa didn't respond back to him.
"Alexa?"
"I can't get in." Alexa said "All personnel transfer chambers are coming up as "Critically Damaged". I can't get us inside"
"So we're stuck here?" Deimos shouted and then a laser just missed his ear.
"What about this large platform?" Artison asked, pointing to a large metallic plate both D and he were standing on "What is it?"
"That's a vehicle gate pad," Alexa said "It's used to teleport... machinery... hold on!" She vanished off the screen for a moment then immediately came back. "They're vehicle gate pad is still operational, if we could get this online we could ride a truck or something into the ship!"
"I'll get to work!" Artison cheered and flipped his goggles down.
"Deimos, We're going to find something to ride up to The Gigantic." D said as he picked up Alexa "Hold the irkens off as long as you can."
"I don't have a choice on that part." Deimos growled and shot back at some of the irken forces down the hall.
D tried to leave, but the only way out of the room was the door Deimos was shooting out of. D murmured curses to himself and looked around the room for something, anything, that could work in the teleporter for them. His eyes drew back to the pad where Artison was working, and then to the chambers he saw still in fine condition. They looked like the only things that each of them could fit into. It'd be like riding in a closed box, but it was their best option.
"Artison, how soon can you get the pad fixed?" D asked
"I'm working with something I know little about in function." Artison said "Tiz thrilling but will take me longer."
"Work faster!" Deimos shouted
D looked around for other options and then turned back to Alexa "Any ideas how to detach these?"
"There might be, put me back on the consul." Alexa said, and started to peer around once back on. "Okay, I could detach them as part of a replacement system, but of there's no replacement in time, the facility shuts down."
"Sounds wonderous." Artison said as he worked "We'd shake the army at our doors."
"But if we mess it up, we're trapped with them." D said "We have to time this right."
"No time, I'm down to my last set of shots" Deimos shouted.
"And..." Artison paused as he worked "Hey, I think I got it?"
"Think!?" Deimos looked at him.
"Think is all we can go off." Alexa shouted and then the transfer chambers detached from the walls "Get them on the pad and get in!*
Artson grabbed one and pulled it over to the pad as the pad started to charge up.
Deimos pulled one over and got in.
D pulled his in place and jumped inside "I feel like I should have a one-liner for this."
"Perhaps a later time!" Artison said and got inside his.
They all sealed their chambers shut.
Inside they couldn't see anything. First there was just the wurring of the machines becoming active, and then there were mutters and footsteps that circled them as they lied there. The murmurs became shouts, and then there was an explosion, and everything went silent.
For a moment, no one dared to open their chambers. Then soon, Deimos tore his open and saw the cargo bay to The Massive.
"Guys, get out." Deimos said "We made it."
"All in a days work." Artison said, rising out with a smile "But let's never take part in those actions again."
