CONNECTED AT 60000 XBps RECEIVING TRANSMISSION... //LOCATION: OPERATIONS// Operator... Hey Paco, found me that data store yet? You're at the location of the store computer, so why haven't you uploaded me that data...?

CONNECTED AT 60000 XBps RECEIVING TRANSMISSION... //LOCATION: OPERATIONS// What the hell is that crap back on the walls?!? Seth, get me a bio scan... ...thanks... Well, it appears someone beat us to this scout ship. Only they weren't looking for data... The place is infected so I'm going to find you a way out... hold on...

CONNECTED AT 60000 XBps RECEIVING TRANSMISSION... //LOCATION: OPERATIONS// Not good marine...Due to the bio crap all over this ship I can't get a lock on your patterns... You have to get to the outer part of the ship where we can blast a hole in the hull to rip you guys out. You can't go back the way you came because of recent growth of that crap on the side of the ship... we need some place fresh. I'd tell you to head toward the EWV room, but it has been converted into a f---ing spawning pit....

CONNECTED AT 60000 XBps RECEIVING TRANSMISSION... //LOCATION: OPERATIONS// Head to the big open chamber on the other side of this door. From there, there are three power sub-stations that are off right now. Turn them on and that should supply enough power to a freight lift that will take you to an uninfected deck. We'll blast a hole in that spot and let you and your team get the hell out of there. Good luck, Operator out TRANSMISSION ENDS //MESSAGE RECORDED//

/DIARY?/ of ship mate 182. --INSERT DATE: __/RECENT?/ LOADING... FOUND: We've been confined into the /duct?/ section of the ship. The /Monsters?/ slaughter any who leave but let those who stay live... Why? Do they need us? From the scan we were able to make of the ship we can tell that they've left various areas /untouched?/. The Scan also shows that some of us are in those areas. Maybe they need us to operate the vital areas until they can /build,adapt,evolve/ /Mandibles/ to use the terminals. Then they will certainly slaughter us...
