B’eight heads cautiously toward the tube system, walking along the corner where the wall meets the floor. The lighting is slightly better throughout the hall as there are yellow lights constantly on, offsetting the pulse of red. Another distant explosion is heard and another corresponding shudder is felt. Some debris falls just in front of B’eight.
"That was close!" The exclamation is more of terror than relief.
The going gets slightly tougher due to the pieces of metal and hanging wires that block the path.
"I probably should have at least gotten my boots."
B’eight nears an intersection. The tubes lie just ahead and the blue light indicating them can just be made out. However, to the left (which is also uphill) B’eight can hear what sounds like a person screaming or moaning in pain. It is difficult to make out the noise exactly and there is a chance it is just the sound of some damaged machinery, attempting to complete it’s primary function despite being obstructed by the new physical challenges it faces. Also, it seems that the standard lighting in that direction has completely been destroyed, casting the way into almost total darkness.
- B’eight continues onward toward the tube system
