#33 of Distant Earth text adventure

Well, now that I have finished writing my nano novel time for more chose your own adventure fun. Hope you guys remember what's going on.


Option A, Play along but don't trust Karlos stun him if he gets a chance

It seems you guys don't trust the badger

Zack stared open jawed at the badger, he knew he had to try and help the others, but he couldn't trust the badger he might still be a spy. "O... okay what's your plan?" The blonde rabbit asked.

"Make our way to the armoury and try to take the cargo hold, get enough weapons to the guys and then try and take the ship," the badger said his voice growing less confident as he went on the rabbit's expression growing far more doubtful. "What... do you have any better ideas? Seriously... I am a fighter and I just played along on instinct. Deju is more of the planner, I just kinda go on instinct and hope like hell it works out."

The rabbit couldn't help but laugh out loud, "so the two of us fight our way to the armoury, the most heavily guarded room on the ship, get some guns fight our way to the cargo bay. Then it's a simple matter of freeing the others and taking the ship?" By the time he finished he was laughing so hard he could barely stand up. The badger had flushed with embarrassment and then joined in the laughter.

"Well... lets not bother with the armoury and the two of us can just storm the bridge instead?" The badger asked as he roared with laughter.

"Yeah... then we take the ship wipe out the Core's navy, conquer Earth and free all the colonies," Zack offered bending over double with laughter.

"Right...then we free the crew and all go home for tea and medals!" Laughed the badger and the two continued to laugh for another minute before the hysteria faded. "We are really screwed right?"

"Maybe... but we owe it to the crew to figure out a way to get... unscrewed," Zack replied his brow furrowing as he thought. "We passed a maintenance room on the way here. If I can gain access to some of the ships engineering systems I might be able to turn off the anti grav plates, if we found some mag boots that could give us a chance. Or maybe set an overload, make a big bang and while everyone deals with that we hit the armoury..."

"Fuck me, that is bloody brilliant, well mildly intelligent anyway, better than anything I have got," the badger replied with a chuckle. "Ok let's go before they realise we are both loose, stay behind me and if we run into guards take cover, leave the fighting to me. Don't be a hero, I know you have no combat training."

With a nod the rabbit leapt back to his feet, the two checked the corridor was completely empty. Not wanting to waste a moment the two sprinted down it, their boots rattling off the metal floor, the stamp echoing loudly and making Zack cringe. Anyone anywhere near them would hear that sound from a distance away.

They found the room easily and their luck held. Though Zack couldn't help but wonder if this was too perfect. He eyed the badger nervously, the maintenance room had two engineers inside. Karlos stormed in and before either of them could even shout he stunned them both. Grabbing a pistol from one he tossed it to Zack. The rabbit looked at the pistol and a flicked it to stun. Karlos checked the corridor, "ok, all clear, now lets..." the badger never got to finish as a stun bolt smacked him clear in the chest and he crumpled up like an old rag on the floor.

His eyes desperately wide and his only potential ally out on the floor the rabbit turned his attention to the maintenance computer and reviewed his options.

Option A Cut the grav plating and grab some mag boots, he should be able to free the crew with some luck.

option B Seal the cargo hold, med bay, Dillon's and this room and vent the atmosphere. Some of the crew might get to oxygen masks but most of them wouldn't, he couldn't vent from bridge or engineering but the crew would no longer outnumber the pirates.

Option C Set one of the power generators to overload and try to free the crew in the confusion.

Distant Earth CYOA part 29

_Option C set a generator to overload._ _Option B got quite a lot of votes too_ Zack sighed, he knew that the best chance for the crew would be to vent the atmosphere, but he couldn't bring himself to kill several hundred people. He didn't have it in...

Dust Cloud Run Around

London, England. It seemed like such an adventure a decade ago, when I first arrived. A city so vibrant, full of life, and with a unique character I can't quite place. I love my home -- Houston, Texas -- and it will always be my first love. London is...

_Option A heat to Qeith's turret and help fight 41_ _Holy crap 41 votes, that is seriously awesome thanks guys._ Zack turned and ran, he figured that Kelo and Reese were both competent engineers they could probably handle the engine room without him....
