Location: Ion Ventilation System
On Patrol: Spherefuls, Little Amptons, Sparkies.
Hazards: Difficult to breathe, firing security lazers, flames from vents, and the like.
*The Ion Ventilation System is undergoing yet another routine checkup in anticipation of possible attacks. Sparkies patrol the floor while the Little Amptons slide up and down the maintenance poles, making sure that all of the systems are up and running and that everything is in order. A Sphereful patiently waits for the presence of an intruder, so that it can begin its slow but steady assault*

[Y2K] Okay ... so we're all here!
[Other Clones] Yep. Here we are. [etc. ad lib]
[Y2K] Right!
[He looks out at the huge array that makes up the Ion Ventilation System. Something pink catches his eye, but when he looks, it's gone. He uses the Force and is reassured on that matter.]
[Y2K] How dull.
[The clones sit down and wait for the heroes to appear ...]

*Albuquerque is playing over the PA speakers for some reason*

[...which adds to the mental instability that the clones already have]

*A large number of Gecko Warriors file into the chamber to aid in the guard duty*

[Y2K glances with confusion at one of them for a moment, then gets control of himself]
[Y2K] Y2C, did you get the holographic generators set up yet?
[Y2C] Yep. As soon as the Good Guys get here, we'll turn it on. They'll be stuck in a maze, with all of us running around it!
[Y2K] Great. Give the Gecko Warriors maps of the maze.
[Note: The maps will self-destruct if the owner is captured or killed]
Ion Ventilation System
Dizzy H. Muffin Posted Mar 30, 2001
[Y2K] Okay, places, everyone! Places!
[Some insubstantial, transparent images of the maze walls appear around them; the clones (and presumably the warriors) get to preselected locations. Once they're there, the walls vanish completely]

[Y2K] D'HAA!
[Other Clones and One Gecko Warrior] What??
[Y2K] I forgot to distribute the floatation devices!
[Y4C] You're going to flood the maze with water?
[Y2K] Uh, yeah. Here!
[Y2K uses the Force to give each and every clone and Gecko Warrior an inflatable raft, which then inflates]
[Y2K] Ah, you! [points to the Gecko Warrior who spoke] Get near the beginning! I want you to be at the initial assault point!

*Since a friend that Minos requested show up for this adventure isn't here yet, KL will be filling in for this post*
Joel-"Who, me?"
Servo-"Stop paying attention to me, I'm not a turncoat, I'm not a turncoat, I'm not a turncoat..."
*The Gecko Warrior goes to the initial starting point, following the map*
Mike-Shouldn't this warrior have followed the map to its pre-determined position?
Crow-Well, in a transparent maze that isn't yet filled with water, I doubt that a map would really make much difference.
Mike-Gee, you can tell that they saved lots of money in the special-effects department with this scene.
Joel-Yeah, it must be cheap to make it appear as if there's *NOT* a wall there...
*Thank you for your patience while I MSTed this scene, instead of waiting for someone who *should* have come around by now...*

[Intercom] This is Xerces in the Galley. I am just informing you that if an attack is initated against us all traps and weapons in the galley will be activated. Contact me before falling back to the Galley so I can deactivate them for a short period of time. [End intercom]

Mike-"...before RE-activating them right before you get here. Have a nice day!"
(Sorry, I didn't know that you would need me this fast, The Krylma Leader.)

[Elizabeth] .....
[Ancba] How about a game of Sabacc?
[Elizabeth] Sure.
[Ancba] No cheating!
[Elizabeth] [snaps her fingers in disappointment] Darn!
Ion Ventilation System
Dizzy H. Muffin Posted Apr 3, 2001
[Y2K] All right. I think the attack's going to get here pretty soon. Places everybody!
[Y3C] We're IN our places!
[Y2K] Oh, right.

Dizzy H. Muffin Posted Apr 3, 2001
D'OH! Er, forget the post here with Liz and Ancba! I accidentally opened a window for THIS forum twice!

Dizzy H. Muffin Posted Apr 4, 2001
[Y2K] Say ... who wants a game of Sabacc?
[Chorus of "Not me"]
[Y2K] Thank Bob!
