*Tim cut into Ray's channel*
"You guys breathing? Good. I suggest you use the stairs in the event of a runaway civilian passing for an elevator.
If you guys-..." *looks behind him* "i'll be a little quieter so I don't get shot or stabbed. If you guys go towards any obvious places of protection.. check any & every civilian body, if any are living. Im currently headed towards the Security Upper. I think highest levels are safest for now. I'll find some helmet and armor if there is any... Stay safe." *cuts out*
Tim braced against the wall and checked for hollowness, then peeked the corner to see a guard at a door.
He knocked on the wall hard and loud then voiced to the guard.
"Hold your fire.. im alone..-"
[Who are you?! Stay back! Civilians aren't allowed here!]
"Im Communication Maintenance.. Im unharmed and healthy."
[Do you have any weapons? *beep* Sir, .... Communication Maintenance .... understood. Come in.]
The wide jawed pug unlocked the door and it opened two layers of steel, revealing the room.
It had a solemn feel, a very unnerving atmosphere. Tim walked in and was escorted to a single booth.
*raised his hands* "Wait! I came with a single pistol." [Keep it in the drawer to your left.] An escort said.
