***Hive Infiltration Game***

[Octavian X]

Well, Mr. Googlie, up to doing a wireless hack job?

[Jamski]

Vev - Unfortunately because of the snow, wireless communication is too patchy to download files. You'll have to find a hard wire or a terminal.

Googlie - (perhaps you can find a place with better reception?)

Octavian X - You're the boss, why'd you let Vev keep the overalls, sorry, I mean "tOm"

Perhaps you can find someone or something to help you, or will someone find YOU!

-Jam

[Vev]

*Cursed dodgy internal building transmitters. Why, back in my days on Earth we have quality auto-adaptive multiband filters and intelligent Kohonen neural-net signal boosters to handle the worst of events.*

"Are we ready to leave this room so we can find an empty room with a computer terminal and at least find out on the public domain what is going on with this building and where everything is?"

[Jamski]

I hope you are. The choice is...

Go back outside
Go through the sealed armoured door on the north side
Go through the normal door on the south side (where the music is playing)
Break the window on the east wall.

-Jam

[Vev]

I like where the music is, even if the music is terrible.

[Octavian X]

Yes, the backdoor is intriguing... Maybe there's a woman I finally get to seduce.

[Jamski]

So is that a GO for the southern door towards the music?

-Jam

[Vev]

I am affirmative for the music room.

[Jamski]

You open the southern door and step through...

The music is pretty loud in here You are in a kind of corridor, about 12 metres long. The entire right-hand-side is a kind of rippled glass panel which lets light through, but no clear vision. The music is coming from the other side of this panel, as is enough light to see clearly in the darkened corridor. A couple of pot plants are placed against the panel, badly in need of a bit of water. On the left hand wall are two doors, both closed. The closest one is marked "W.C." The panel-wall also has a door in it at the far end of the corridor.

Peering through the panel you can make out a kind of bar-shape and two people - CONTACT! They don't seem to have noticed you...

...yet.



Here's the latest map for you I suggest extreme caution.

-Jam

[Vev]

I am sure now Octavian will be asking if there are any hot females in the bar.

[Octavian X]

A bar? Are we at a University research facility or a resort hotel?

Anyway, I'll check out the bookcase as causally as possible. Check for info, and hope that however's at the bar is drunk, hot, and seducable...

[Jamski]

The bookcase is filled with technical manuals about rover maintaince, cheap paperbacks, old magazines and tool catalogues. Seems the Uni are a bit behind the times, or perhaps the people in this area need hard printed copies of thier books. Books, eh? We thought we'd have left them behind on Earth, but they still have a use - mainly for entertaining Drones who have no net-access, and as hard copy back-up.

By peering through the crack in the door you can see two middle aged men, with their backs to you. Both are wearing overalls. Over the noise of the music you can hear the sound of water running behind the door marked W.C. The water stops and you hear a couple of odd noises....

Perhaps someone is coming....

-Jam

[Vev]

W.C - Water closet? Toilet?

[Jamski]

Could be... could be a weapons chamber

-Jam

[Jamski]

HELLO?!?!?!
