"One eventually gets accustomed to the loss of comrades-in-arms, although the pain never dulls. Such pain can usually be directed towards the enemy, but our situation brings a level of difficulty with this tactic. We know not who our enemy is and thus, we lash out at one another and destroy our solidarity from within."
It didn't take the experience of a Legate to know that the deaths caused by those within their ranks was driving down morale, but there was little they could do save for continuing onward.

Archer had pressed n the button for the elevator to come as the rest of the group was talking. Suddenly and evidently out of nowhere [B]Dr. Olympia Myklos[/B] would be engulfed by a fireball. There was nothing to be done other to put out the flames. Bob using the Chemical Thrower would blast her with some of the liquid nitrogen. The flames would dissipate leaving only the charred remains of the good doctor laying on the ground.

The gun accidentally fires in Fabian's direction. He leaps into air as it fires under him. "Whoa! Watch it!" Landing, he says, "If that's how it's going to be, I'll take my chances with the Splicers."

[QUOTE=Tempie]Tempie hesitated a moment before replying. "I heard someone calling me. He said, if I came to him, someone called Dr. Sue Chong would show me angels. Do you believe in angels, Dr. Myklos? Someone told me that people become angels when they die."
Then the voice spoke again. [FONT=Comic Sans MS][I]Never mind the woman or the boy, Tempie-girl; they cannot see the angels. Only little girls can see angels, not grown people or boys. Come to Yi Suchong, little sister, and you can play with the angels like the other Little Sisters."[/I][/FONT]
"Did you hear him, Dr. Myklos?" Tempie exclaimed. "He said you and Hank couldn't see the angels; was he telling the truth?"[/QUOTE]
Olympia paused. "Angels are more mysterious and interesting than you might think, my dear. Tell me, when you think of angels, what image pops into your head? A human figure with wings, a glowing halo, a white robe, and a harp?"
"The truth is, there are several different types of angels, according to the scriptures and various writings. And many of them don't even look human. The seraphim actually have six wings, which they use to conceal their bodies. Otherwise, they would blind those who see them."
"Then there are the thrones, wheels within wheels all covered with eyes. I imagine there's very little that escapes their notice."
"And I must tell you about the cherubim. You probably think you know what they look like, do you? Imagine your surprise if you read the book of Ezekiel, and find them described as not chubby little Cupids, but four-headed creatures with the faces of a man, an eagle, and a lion."
"So you see, angels come in many, many fascinating forms. Though some might be just ordinary-looking, and you wouldn't know they were anything special if you saw them. That's why most painters depict them with wings so that we know who they are right away."
"But as for this Dr. Su Chong? Hmm..."
She searched the machine as she thought about this some more.
[QUOTE=searching the machine]A hatchet on top of the head clicked open after some poking and prodding. Inside was a bunch of trash and what seemed to be some sort of keycard with 'Operations' written on it.
Navigation would not have been too tricky either. The signs on the wall through the corridor told them that they were now in the centre of the Robotics wing, the show room to the north and the workshop to the left. Southwards they'd find the Minerva's Den's entrance hub connecting all the area to each other. [/quote]
"Well, there we are, then." Olympia said with a smile. "We havr a keycard, we know where we are, and all we need is to go to the Minerva's Den entrance hub, and then find the Hestia section and we should be able to catch up with..."
She was interrupted by an unexpected voice.

"Now, THIS is interesting." Olympia said. "It sounds like it's coming from the hub, which is our way out of here."

"Of course, but where do we run to? This creature ... whatever it is ... appears to be approaching from the exit to this place. Where can we go, aside from the showroom and the workshop?" Olympia noted. "Of course, if the creature is hostile, we might find some things to use against it in this Robotics section."
