GET TO SAFETY

The mission to eradicate all nearby enemies developed into a rightful massacre. Although 
the sheer size of the ship still housed countless foes, the local hive was almost 
annihilated. If the soldiers moved fast enough, this victory would give them the extra 
breathing space required to accomplish further assignments.

The Alpha squad inspected their equipment making sure it had not suffered any severe damage. 
They took time to reload, and to contact the spaceship command to signal the completion of 
their mission, waiting for new orders. Without further delay, Commander Bellisar sent the 
squad deeper into the darkness. In spite of the evident threat that loomed ahead, this was 
the first mission that could actually result in something valuable. A R.A.T. spy robot had
 been dispatched to dive into the hidden depths of the ship.  Within seconds of connection 
to the computer network, the R.A.T. had amassed all the required data about the ship's 
cryogenic systems: their exact location, and the security around them.

Once the R.A.T. had safely stored all the information, it disengages from the network and 
began working its way towards to outer decks. Alpha squad was ordered to meet up with 
the R.A.T. and get it out of harm's way. Commander Bellisar sent word for another squad 
to assist, to ensure the R.A.T. got out intact. Those narrow corridors gave very little 
space to move, and all available firepower would be more than welcome.

Bravo squad had also engaged the enemy. They were ambushed by the swarm the second they had
 entered the vessel, and several of its members had fallen in combat. Even if only five brave
 souls remained alive, the extra firepower they could provide was a gift of life to the 
exhausted Alpha group. Although the reinforcements could not arrive through the same path, 
one of many sleeping quarters on board offered the most promising rendezvous route.

The R.A.T. was in sight, now it was all a matter of getting it out in one piece to secure 
its invaluable data.
