[b][center]Docks Of The Altenia Tower[/center][/b] Lou pulled the main vehicle in with the rest of them following close behind. Gwen hopped out quickly and ran over to the com. “Craig, enacting emergency procedures for the Mine, report to the Mor, I will meet you there,” Gwen said quickly before looking over at Marx. “You come with me, the rest of you, regear. We need the mines, once the storm passes I want everyone back out there and find a new place to create an entrance. Grab the Singers once the storm has passed. We’ve dug out a new mine before, we will again.” “And what about Silvia?” Marx yelled as he climbed out of the transport. “Either she is dead or they made it to safety. We don’t have time to dig out a body. If they made it to where I think they were headed, she’ll figure it out,” Gwen said as she walked towards the Elevator. Marx ran after her and grabbed her arm. “I am not just going to give up on getting her out,” he snapped as he spun her around. Gwen narrowed her eyes and ripped her arm away from him. “I’m not giving up on her, I am having faith in her,” she said quickly before entering the elevator and heading towards the Mor. [b][/center]The Altenia Tower[/center][/b] Craig sighed deeply as he listened to Ailen. [i]”Just breath man, okay? If anyone can get out of this mess Silvia and that Jun’Krama can. Brains and Brawn. And we have another option, I was just messaged by Gwen to meet her in the Mor, if she is up to what I think she is, we just found option C,”[/i] Craig said before receiving the com from Srath. “Srath man, good to hear from you. Been waiting for your call. Listen I have a job for you but with everything going on in the Mines I cannot risk sending any security off world for Transport. So I will need your unique skills. Soon as you can please head to my quarters, I have you keyed in for access. Let me know when you get there and I will head down do we can speak in person,” Craig answered quickly as he headed to the elevator and up to the Mor. Craig arrived in the Mor a few moments before Gwen and Marx did. Gwen stepped in and looked around, walking over to the main computer before sitting down. Marx sighed deeply as he stepped over to Ailen but didn’t say anything, he didn’t know what to say at this point. After a few minutes at the computer working in silence Gwen raised the Tower Com. “Attention all personnel; this is Singer Gwen Ravous. Due to a collapse at the mine our current Tower Lead is M.I.A., since there are no available T-1’s ones left I regret to inform you that your temporary Tower Lead will be,” Gwen said before pausing for a moment. The Twins eyes got wide and a large smile came over their features. Their usual casual demeanor about never wanting a tower fading away and showing that this was something they truly wanted. “Me, clearance has been granted by GTC,” Gwen finished as she turned around and flung a crystal drive towards Ailen. “Silvia gave this copy to me in the Mines before everything happened,” she said as she looked over towards Marx. “Same thing she sent me?” Marx asked as he crossed his arms over his chest. “Bingo,” Gwen said. “The woman knew how to cover her bases.” “Knows how to cover her bases,” Marx correctly quickly. “Ailen, hail GTC Justice Division, we have a report to make, open all frequencies to a joining Tower. I don’t want this one getting lost in the static,” she said quickly before looking over at Craig. “Get these bitches out of my Mor until Silvia gets back. They’re off duty for the next 18 hours at least,” Gwen said as the Twins faces went from happy to fury filled. “Sorry girls, with the mine and the storm, we cannot risk you get hurt as well. Craig, make sure they are confined to quarters for their own safety until their next shift and then escort them back personally. Give them the Tristan Treatment, you know, just to shield them from anything bad that someone may try to do to them,” Gwen added with a wink. Craig smiled and motioned for the Twins to follow him. Both of them huffed but followed. [i]”We should just make a break for it now”[/i], Gemini said telepathically to her sister. [i]”No, it will make them suspect,”[/i] Gemine replied. [i]”Well we didn’t have a thing to do with the Mine!”[/i] [i]”I know but we had other matters to attend to, so just go with it for now.”[/i] Craig lead them out of the tower and Gwen sighed deeply as she took a seat in the Tower Lead Chair, retracting the spare one for the Twins. “Marx, I need Silvias crystal unlocked, keep the rest locked down,” she said as she rubbed her temples. “Why Silvias? You aren’t bonded to it,” Marx said as he looked at Gwen confused. A T-1 using a black crystal that had bonded with another was deadly. “Yes, I am. I was the singer that cut it,” Gwen remarked as she looked over to him. “I was the first to bond with it and it has a link with her. I need it to see if she is still alive,” she added as she waited. Marx turned and went to override the security protocol. “Ailen, please, fill me in on what has been happening here since Silvia left,” Gwen said as she looked over to him, waiting on Marx to take care of his assigned task. [b][center]Infirmary Of Altenia Tower[/center][/b] Lou had the Moles bring the remains of Trevor to the infirmary for processing before he was to be moved to the morgue as well as the injured. There we about half a dozen people that needed tending to for minor cuts and some empathic mental restoration due to the mines humming before they could get out. It was nothing major thankfully. [b][center]Safe Room in the Mines[/center][/b] Silvia sat there on the ground and drew a long deep breath. The reason she was more physically fit than most high level talents was because she had lived on Earth and been cross trained in so many things as she grew up. Cave-ins happened, power was lost, things went wrong and crystals that could act as the physical side to keep stamina and strength going were not always available. What she had done took as much physical fortitude as mental. As Karras pulled her over to him she looked at him oddly. What in the world was he doing? Why wasn’t he looking for supplies? Or an exit? He was holding her, this was yet another thing she wasn’t expecting. Leaning back against him she smirked slightly at his words. “Yeah, I really don’t want to have our dead bodies found down here,” she said. “I think both our reputations would be ruined if we died with me in your arms,” she said and laughed weakly. She sighed slightly and let herself rest against him, she wanted to get up and look around but she knew better than to push it at this point. The bleeding had stopped but it could start again if she tried too much too soon. She wasn’t exactly sure what was in the room, she had been busy talking to Gwen last time she was in there to take notice of anything but the maps. “The maps!” she suddenly exclaimed as she looked up at him. “I need to look at the maps,” she added quickly before rolling out of his lap and stumbling to her feet. She barely managed to get upright, an arm wrapped around her waist as she walked, wobbling from left to right as she did before she nearly crashed into the table and rested down on a stool as she began to examine the maps of the dug out portions of the mine that were not in the GTC files. If one were to look around they would see basic emergency supplies, first aid for basics as well as Talents. Manuals, food supplies, clothing, water, etc; as well as weapons. “Oh I might kiss you,” she said as she looked over the maps and papers that were on the make shift table. “When we get out of here,” she added as she turned her head and smiled faintly. “I guess I need to explain somethings though,” she said before looking back over the maps. As she studied them she filled Karras in on the resistance, what she was hoping to accomplish and why she chose this planet to start. “So you see,” she said once she was finished explaining why they were in a room that wasn’t on the map. “I have to get out of here,” she said as she looked up and across from her, her eyes widening as she spotted something peeking out from under a canvas sheet. “Holy shit….”
