>>5734635It doesn’t take a mine reader to notice things aren’t looking good inside the <span class="mu-s">HAUSER MINE–</span>its infrastructure was, even to your untrained eyes, not up to standards when you entered, and the addition of a few uncontrolled blasts didn’t help its temperament much!
Feeling another explosion rock the tunnels behind you, you give Pepper a confident nod! Let’s do it!
“Quickly, please! Dis’ whole place is comin’ down!” Whines Rodney as another hunk of ceiling just misses your section of the catwalk! Leading the group over to the track with the word ‘<span class="mu-i">LOWER</span>’ stenciled above the tunnel corkscrewing downwards into the Earth, you motion for everyone to start pushing!
“Uh, dude,” Mutters Raj, apparently completely oblivious to the impending doom around you, “Isn’t down, like, the way <span class="mu-i">opposite</span> of out?”
“Yea, what he said!” Agrees your fellow delivery boy as he places a hand on Pepper’s shoulder! “We found the girl–time ta’ go while we still can!”
“<span class="mu-i">The Girl</span>’ came here to get to the bottom of things!” Counters Pepper as she wriggles free of Rodney’s grasp! “And the fact that Hauser’s men are here just makes me even more curious!” She concludes as she turns to you for aid!
Every drop of survival instinct left in your battered body is telling you to find the closest exit from this deathtrap and <span class="mu-i">LEAVE</span>... but an even tinier drop buried deep within tells you that this might be your best and only chance to see what lies below the mountain… and what you hope is the aforementioned <span class="mu-s">LEVEL 7!</span> That’s why, you conclude, you <span class="mu-i">HAVE</span> to take this chance… and it has to be <span class="mu-s">NOW!</span>
Feeling the catwalk lurch beneath you, Raj and Rodney exchange nods before running to give the minecart a push! Clambering in front, Pepper slaps the side of the vehicle a few times for motivation!
“C’mon, boys! PUSH!”
Yes, <span class="mu-i">MADAME!</span> Christ…
