Re: Parin IV - Space Station Brilliance
Kars stands up, his short project finished, he puts the tools away. The resulting object isn't immediately apparent in function, a low, squarish, very solid metal frame of some kind. It is a weapon mount, not too dissimilar to the one connecting his plasma cannon to his ship. He stands on it, bouncing a little to test the mechanism of the clamps. Satisfied he crouches down to lift it, and with a little effort, manages to heave it up and get it into the cargo compartment before closing and locking the hatch.
"With this thing complete, nothing will stand in my way." He says to himself grinning with a menacing glee, laughing at the cheesiness of his own words just seconds afterwards.
Checking his suits forearm computer display he notes the time, and move over to the cockpit of his ship. Looking up and grabbing a pair of bars either side of the cockpit (it's upside down when landed like this remember), he lifts himself up and kicks his legs up into it. Now upside down he shuffles and climbs up into his seat and straps himself in. Ship systems normal, everything loaded and ready to go. Kars flicked on the ships external surveillance views and tuned one display to the prominent TPD news channel. As he watched he let his arms hang free out the opening of his cockpit hatch, just swaying dead in the air.
