Survival, The Sequel
AKA "No-one can hear you scream in space".
Yes, indeed the second thread of survival is now open!

Even joining will be done in the original recruitement thread (yes, new players can join there).
List of Players:
SpoilerRoKAi (1) (Who can speak pretty much any language)
Dr. Bath (2 + 1) (Who is now the not-so-proud bearer of a frogtongue)
Raistlin1040 (1 + 1)
Aegeus(0)
Duches_of_Elysian(0)
Almighty Salmon(2)
Blood (0)
Rejakor(1)
Weebl(0)

Xykon Fan (1)
Somewhere, in deep space, there lies a field of meteors. Huge chunks of rock, floating peacefully through space. In this field, lies a spacecraft. A battered old thing, covered in thick layers of space-dust and rust. In this spacecraft lies a room. A room once inhabited by strange creatures of an advanced society, but now long abandoned. In the centre of this room stands an object: a washing-machine. This too, has not been used in ages, but now, it's lights flicker and the bucket begins to whir, the pipes at the back burst and water pours out onto the floor in a continous stream. There is a clash, a thump and someone curses. This person was Dr. Bath, who hit his head upon appearing inside the bucket of the washing-machine. Two more thumps can be heard, two more curses are uttered. Now RoKAi and Raistlin1040 are in the machine too. The three are pretty cramped up, but that would not be such a problem, if only...if only the door of the washing-machine wasn't stuck...
Oh, you all received a point for going through the washing-machine. Congratz, guys.
New players, please wait for a PM message before you post.Last edited by MrEdwardNigma; 2007-05-26 at 09:10 AM.

Re: Survival, The Sequel
RoKAi: yes, you crept in head first, but you have been twisted around somehow. Also, bashing the door doesn't seem to help very much.
Suddenly, there is a flash and three people appear in the room (but not in the washing-machine).
The three people are Almighty Salmon, Aegeus and Duchess_of_Elysian. All of them are dressed in tuxedos.
Oh, and I suppose them will need a descrition of the rest of the room...
The washing machine is in the centre of the room, and there's water pouring out of it's back, forming a huge puddle on the floor. There's a bench against the east wall and a metal sliding door at the west wall. there seems to be no way of opening the door. There is a sign hung on the washing-machine, but it's completely unreadable. Not that it's not neatly written, it just seems to be written in a different alphabet. The floor is made up out of light green and white tiles in a chessboard pattern, and the walls and ceiling are made up out of some sort of metal.Last edited by MrEdwardNigma; 2007-05-06 at 09:12 AM.

Re: Survival, The Sequel
Almighty Salmon: You free the poor suckers inside the machine. You notice one of them has a rather big tongue. None of them are dressed properly, and, for some reason, they are all soaked.

Re: Survival, The Sequel
"Wow right.. nice to meet you. You can call me Salmon.
Funnily enough i can never remember where i got that nickname..
Anyway, Suppose i better explain what we're doing here.. Me and my two friends here work for an agency that monitors disruptions in the space-time continuum. We've been sent deep into space to annihilate recent series of disruptions.Last edited by Almighty Salmon; 2007-05-06 at 10:06 AM.

Re: Survival, The Sequel

I inspect the washing machine closely and then look for other signs on the walls and/or doors.

Re: Survival, The Sequel
RoKAi: The washing-machine looks exaclty like the one on the island, except for the sign: it has some lights, a big red button and drawers for water and soap. Oh, another difference are huge amounts of water leaking out of it at the back. And no, there aren't any other signs.

Re: Survival, The Sequel
Almighty Salmon: there is an enormous amount of disruption around the washing-machine and the three guys who came out of it.

Looking around, one of the tuxedo'd, teleporting people says "Ummm... Salmon? Do you remember how to get rid of time/space disruptions? I seem to have forgotten."

Re: Survival, The Sequel
...No...Your company has teleporters. Non-portable teleporters, which sent you here, but won't be of any use beyond that. check your inventory, you don't have a teleporter. Sorry about the confusion if I wasn't clear about it.
Rejakor: There doesn't seem to be any obvious way of stopping the water. The cause seems to be that one of the metallic pipes in the back has burst, and now it is emitting water at high speed.Last edited by MrEdwardNigma; 2007-05-06 at 11:33 AM.
