Chapter 6: Not A Pushover

Robert was in the Physics Division. His eyepatch was removed. He had thrown it away a while back. All of the Physicists were still stuck on the Canteen’s floor as he was nearing the Power Control System when a voice came on over the intercom for the floor.

“What are you doing Robert?” Irene said.

“...” Robert was outside of Dr. Eringi’s office. The door was locked from the inside, and it wasn’t accepting a code to unlock it.

“What the hell are you up to? And what were you thinking? Get the hell out of there!”

“...” Robert opened his case. It revealed a FN-75 Blaster Pistol. He picked it up and loaded the charge pack.

Robert shot out the tinted glass of the door. Dr. Eringi was still sitting at his desk.

“Well well well. If you are the spy Robert, you’re too late. I’ve contacted The Federation Military. They’ll be in this solar system within the hour. I’ve wiped all physical data on this station as well. All backups have been…” Eringi said before he was shot in the chest.

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Robert stood there. Disappointment filled his face. He put the pistol on safety and walked over to Eringi’s computer. Eringi had not signed out before dying, and Robert accessed the Administrator Control Program over the Power Station. He disabled the solar panels, and began to discharge any stored power on the colony. Finally, he shut off power to the temperature regulator and central heating. Before he left, Robert took Eringi’s eyepatch and attached it to the connectors around his eye. As he left, the temperature immediately began to drop.

Robert walked into the elevator as a few lights began to flicker. He was taken to the Hanger where the droids were following their procedures and making their way to their charging stations. Robert used an automated crane to bring down a Military Stealth ship that lacked weapons. Using Eringi’s eyepatch, Robert called to reserve droids to fuel the ship. He then began to message Irene.

Julius Eringi: Get to the Hanger now. Set a lockdown procedure to activate before we leave.

Robert threw the eyepatch off and stepped on it.
