Mr Swarm and Super Hex rushed down a small ladder and counted
|
|
across to find throbbing black slime bubbling from the vents and
|
|
around the edge of the door -- thin gooey strands pumping to and
|
|
fromi a larger blob gently pulsating on the ceiling, a stripe of
|
|
rainbow lights blinking from somewhere deep inside of it. Hex
|
|
gingerly poked it with her screwdriver, her hand jerked back with a
|
|
spark, leaving the screwdriver spinning towards the floor.
|
|
|
|
"Trajectory found," the computer declared, "ENGINES: ONLINE."

Hex and Mr Swarm looked at each other. The ship lurched forward,
|

knocking them to the floor.

Cranium ran into the cockpit and started pressing buttons on a
|
|
small panel, with me close behind. A series of commands was given
|
|
to the AI, the response to each was the same "USER ACCESS: DENIED."
|
|
|
|
"We're being jammed up here, what's happening in the datastore?" I
|
|
said into the intercom.
|
|
|
|
"It's black-rasberry," crackled Hex, "it's all over the 13th
|
|
datablock, and the overhead conduit"
