live fast: episode 2

Captains log: Stardate: 2-19-2012

         We have landed on the planet Nebula, in the alpha sentory sector in search of the elusive diletium crystal. It appears to be a hostile environment. My crew consisting of my self, captain Terry L Perdun,  my first officer Tracy J Oberman, and  43 other crew members. We will attempt to mine the crystal from the depths of the planet. As five of us venture into the caverns of the rocky hillsides, I gave the order to don the respiratory gear and have molecule organizer weapons (m.o.w.)at the ready. There is no telling what waits in front of us. Most of the crew will remain aboard the vessel.
          Once inside the cavern the ancient solar flashlights are of little use and we must rely upon our dilethium crystal flashlights in the pitch black. Traveling deeper and deeper into the bowels of the planet the crew and I hear familiar  noises coming from behind us. We move back wards in the cavern trying to discover what the noises are. Upon moving backwards we discover a different path as the noise grows louder. Now 18 hours beneath the planets crust, following the noise levels until the crew and I discover giant machines tunneling underground cutting one tunnel into another. They appear to be un-manned and self propelled machines. Following the caverns, lost and disoriented, until a grand room appears full of machines simular to the tunnel cutter earlier discovered.
