OOC: You have real good skills at RPing, Bullet. Is this the first time you joined a text-based RPG?

-------------------------------------

Otto looked at the fixed machinery. "At least they are up and running again." he thought as he watched a nearby grinder spinning, going down to the conveyor belt now and then.

#7 Slig stood next to him, waiting for orders, but since Otto seemed to be hypnotised by the grinder, he cleared his throat. "What shall we do now?" he asked.

"I guess we have to activate the conveyor belts to get production running again. I saw Gappiqu leaving, he must have finished the repairs up there. This means we can activate the boiler again. Will you, #7 Slig?" asked Otto.

"At once." #7 Slig waved his hand as a salute and left through the door leading to the production lines. He went along the conveyor belt, then went over a bridge to get on the other side of the belt. There, he found an elevator. He went down to the basement and, after passing through a few corridors, he found the boiler control room. He went inside.

The place was sort of eerie for #7 Slig. Not just becuase the red emergency lights due to the boiler shut-down, but of the stories he heard of boiler rooms. Whole factories could be destroyed if something is damaged in there. That was the least #7 Slig wanted to cause, so he tried to keep distance from the valves and levers. He found the main boiler valve. He went to it cautiously and turned it.

The boiler started to hum as a strange mechanical buzz came from the electronics. #7 Slig took a few steps back, dreading the thought of this thing blowing up. But then the emergency lights turned back to normal, and the humming got calmer. It seemed to be working fine. #7 Slig sighed with relief and ran out of the room.
