Chapter 50 by Westwall Westwall

Onwards and Downwards...

To the Industrial Sector...

The tram lumbered 'downwards' towards the industrial sector of the ship itself, located at the aft section. The industrial sector housed most of the workers on the Henkan, as the ship's whole purpose was cracking open planets and then mining the massive amounts of resources within. Planetcrackers like this kept humanity humming along, and their work was incredibly vital.

Such a long trip afforded Marie the ability to sit down and take a deep breath. She had been in multiple high-stress situations, and her body was incredibly tired. Her wrists hurt from holding the blade so tightly, and her RIG was still warning her that it was failing. Warning Sampson that she would need some shut-eye, Marie plopped down onto a nearby seat and closed her eyes. She would be no use to her shipmates if she was falling asleep during combat with the miserable monsters that seemed to live on this vessel now.

Darkness took Marie, and before too long, she was asleep.

...

"Marie..."

...

...

"MARIE!"

The sudden shaking of her whole body made the woman leap from her seat, and she was greeted with the concerned smile of her ship captain. The tram had stopped at the station right at the entrance to the industrial sector, and Marie had slept the whole way. It was a short nap, but one that was very much needed.

"Are you okay?" questioned the bulky man. His massive hand was on her shoulder, and to feel someone touching her physically made her feel fantastic.

"I am okay." Marie answered. Standing up, she could see her fellow crewmates were beaten like dogs. Sampson's clothes were torn to shreds practically, and Nicholas wasn't looking much better. The only one that still seemed quite cool was Glenn, though he was still quite aware of their surroundings.

"We need to collect some resources from this sector and bring them to the hanger deck to repair our shuttle. Then we can get the hell out of here." Sampson directed, all four of them geared and ready to explore what remained of the aft section of the vessel.

Marie just hoped that this place was less populated...

Into the Dark Corridors...
