Again the lift began to rumble down, slowly picking up speed to an almost nauseating level. Finally after almost another 3 minutes of travel the lift halted and the doors opened. Ahead was a open corridor 10ft high by 15ft wide, it split to left and right made up of grey painted walls. Lighting flickered on this time along the top and bottom corners of the corridor providing lighting to left and right around unseen corners.

The humming of a power source could be heard in either direction, it though was barely noticeable given its high pitch, but if someone deemed to scan they would pick up the energy readings they sought came from the left, while to the right were what seemed a weaker power source and what might be life signs though exact properties of this second finding were muddled due to the energy put out by the unknown power source.

Nissek stepped into the lift after Naomi and waited until the doors opened once again.

Upon stepping out in the new location, she checked her scanner. “Our energy reading appear to be originating from that direction,” Nissek pointed to the left. “However there also seems to be something in the other direction…” she said, though she would rather go left.

It seemed the lift sensed her urgency as it dropped down, threatening to leave their stomachs behind. Naomi’s knuckles became white from the grip she held and effort to keep her lunch from spewing into her throat. Somehow, she swallowed down the sourness lingering there when things came to a stop. With a deep breath, she cautiously stepped out of the lift into the dimly lit corridor. She didn’t like the looks of it. It reminded her of a horror scene in a movie where the unexpected victims were about to be devoured.

Determined not to be the first attacked, Naomi listened to Nissek.

“Let’s go to the left and quietly. I rather not trip the alarm or gain unwanted attention. We get in, and get out. Now keep close everyone.” Her voice was hushed down to where only the three of them could hear.

Having finished reminding them of their priorities, she quietly began to drift to the left and toward their intended target.

Kenny braced himself as they descended, slowly following the others into the area. He handled the drop much better than Naomi, being used to a lot of G-forces from his pilot training.
