Re: Tentacles VS Humans Game #1
Laura marched with the rest of her crew behind her, leading them to the Recreation Room.
"I want everyone to stay here. This alien, it doesn't want to show itself. It wants to hide. In us." She glanced meaningfully around the room at each of her crew members.
"We're not going to give it another chance to do that."
She paced back and forth and then squared her shoulders having come to a decision.
"Myself and a small team will take the lifeboat and use it's impulse engines to take us to the New Eden dig site where Dr. Creed said they'd found this alien source. The lifeboat has two torpedoes on it armed with enough payload to cause a seizmic blast that will destroy or bury anything there. We're going to make sure that the only living aliens are on board the Muse, so they won't have any chance of reinforcements. While we're strafing the planet, the rest of you will stay here in this room. Keep an eye on one another and make sure none of those crawlers get through. This is an order."
Nodding to Marlisse, she wordlessly suggested that Marlisse select the four women who would be accompanying Laura on the strafing run.
....
The away team, led by Captain Laura, headed towards the lifeboat.
"We'll need to make certain we have identified the right dig site. We won't have another shot at this with our current fuel supply and I don't want to leave the others alone too long."
The women started to put on their armored jumpsuits at the airlock. Laura strapping on her chest protector over the skin-tight bodyglove. Suddenly there was a disturbing squelching noise, and everyone raised their weapons, eying the corridors and dark corners. Nothing seemed to be there. But they could have sworn they'd heard something.
Then suddenly...
"EEEEeeeeyyyyaaaahhh!!"
The group spun to see their captain clutching lewdly at herself, but it soon became apparent that something other than herself was moving beneath that clinging body suit. Writhing squelching tendrils began to tear through bits of the suit, exposing Laura's exquisite body, lustful in spite of itself.
"Get on the ship! Go! They're here!" she screams amidst incoherent moans.
Just then a scuttling of clacking sounds resonates off the steel floors down the corridor to the cargo bay. Amongst them are heavier footfalls... something big... something powerful.
"Don't stay! Go! That's... aahhh.... an order! Eyaaaahhh!"
Hesitating only slightly, the rest of you make a dash for it onto the lifeboat. With a quick tap of the controls, you close and lock the plas-steel door behind you, looking through the window as Laura is assaulted by a unsightly horror...
With her last desperate action, unbeknown to her attackers, Laura pulls the pin on a canister attached to the back of her suit. Her last thought was that she would be taking all of these disgusting things with her.
*KABOOM*
The entirety of the airlock antechamber is rocked by the power of the concussion grenade, and Laura is spared any further humiliation.
The other members taken on the mission cast about looks of dread before closing the opposite airlock doors and boarding the lifeboat. There was nothing left now but to head to New Eden and do their best to complete Captain Laura's final orders.
