Does The Pair Listen To Her?
No
“Goddamn it, you get away from there this instant, if you get in that pod your fucking dead, you hearing me marines?!” Shouts Sarah, hoping to get it through their heads that nothing good will come of this.
The soldiers affix the Sargent with a glare, Milo swings into the escape pod, strapping himself in.
“Sorry sarge… I just can’t trust the android… or you…” says Johnson, his voice apologetic as he turns away and climbs into the pod.
A button is pressed inside the pod and the door seals shut, a few moments after that, the sound of a second pod jettisoning can be heard, bringing with it the knowledge of their ****.
“Fuck…. Goddamn stupid kids…” mutters Sarah as she turns away from the pod, unable to look away from it.
“…I saw what you did on the command deck… I… I want to believe you…” says Bianca, hands on her head as she stares at the door what once led to an escape pod.
“Can.. can you make your way to the galley by yourself? I gotta look for other people before I head there myself..” says Sarah, stepping out into the hall with Bianca.
She gives a nod of her head. “Yeah… I think I can make it… take care of yourself chief…” and with that she takes off down the hall, heading for the galley.
Sarah approaches the remaining pods, jettisoning them one by one and ensuring that no other lives are claimed by the faulty pods.
She steps back out into the hall just as Mother speaks up again over the intercom.
“Warning; impact with planet in approximately 20 minutes.” She’s running out of time, she needs to move.
Where Does She Go Next?
