"That should be it... there!" He said, he was crouched by the generator tweaking the final component before standing. The cane felt awkward in his hand but it certainly took the sting out of the ankle as he closed in on Lukes position, the man looked bored beyond words and understandably so having been waiting for the best part of three hours for Ryan to assess and then repair the damaged generator.

"Right, all done. Flick on that light switch will you? " he asked as he hobbled over to the power console and studied it. The sound of the light switch flicking could be heard but no light filled the room.
He looked at the console before him and could see it was lit up, he also saw the switches that provided power for each area of the station, the first one he switched on was "Control room" he then proceeded to turn on the others.

The room lit up a dull shade of yellow as the old light came to life, Ryan turned off his torch and placed it back in his life jacket, Luke strolled over to him. Ryan grinned at his handy work and was waiting for one if Lukes smart ass remarks before turning to leave the generator room.

The hallway was clear as he had hoped yet he still emerged cautiously out of the room followed by Luke, the dull whirring of the generator faded as Luke silently closed the door behind him. The lights came on automatically as soon as Ryan made his way up the hallway to the staircase a few metres off from the door. He change that once he got to the control room, he wanted the entire place in darkness. Except of course the control room. 
Upstairs he could see the electronically locked door they had easily passed through was now up and running. The doors go offline in the event of a power outage and he couldn't tell visually if the door would be in good order once power was restored, thankfully it was. He approached it and swiped the card through the reader and heard a gentle beep and a green light appear accompanied by a small hum from the door lock however, he did not pass through the door itself. 

"Yeah this card works for this door so I imagine it will work on others we come across." He waited for the green light to change back to red and the LED display read Locked.. 10 second window then the door closes... noted. 

The control room door was literally twenty feet away from the staff area access point and Ryan wasted no time in getting there and opening it. He stacked on the door and peered around the corner when it opened. The lights came on automatically and Ryan saw that the large room was empty.

The main room was divided in to sections, the whole left hand side was occupied by numerous computer screens which were hooked up to two large workstations. Immediately to the right Ryan saw a dining area with three small tables, in the far right hand corner was a small kitchen area, there was a small door there also which was probably a storage closet. He walked over to the fridge and opened it, the light came on and it was cool, not cold but then again you can't have everything. He closed it and proceeded to open the storage closet which when opened confirmed his prediction, cleaning items, hi vis jackets, torches and the like could be seen.
The centre of the room consisted of numerous desks, paperwork had been scattered around each of them, these guys left in a hurry clearly. Ryan walked past the desk area and saw two rooms at the back of the large control room, as he neared he saw that the left hand one was an office and the right hand one was a toilet.
He peered into both and saw that they too were empty before heading over to the console closest to him. 

"I want all the lights in the station off bar these ones" he said pointing to the lights that illuminated the room they were standing in.

Ryan took a seat and studied the computer system for a while, getting to grips with it wouldn't take him long.

"Ok first im going to activate every electronic lock and make sure they are locked, then ill figure out how to do the lights... Why don't you stock the fridge?"
