Yeah, I'm making more. Not sure how many though.
= Part Two =
Neif sighed, it was struggling to find the exit to the next floor. Dust had scattered all over the floor and there were large pillars which had fallen and blocked access.
"Neif", Ali said, "I can get through one of the pillars with a drill... it should be around here somewhere". Ali started feeling the walls, trying to find his way to where the tool rack was. Neif smiled, "Well okay, but don't destroy all of the pillars... it might make this place even more unstable than it already is!". Ali nodded.
Neif sighed, “Come on Rena, let’s try and find out about those other floors”. Rena walked to the map screen, placing its palm in the map system. Rena looked around, “We have two on the floor above us, and four on the floor above that”. Neif nodded, “Okay, let’s see if we can save them”. Ali had retrieved the drill, and was now making its way through the pillar blocking the exit. Within a few minutes, Ali had finished its work. Rena smiled, “Okay, let’s get off this floor!”.
Neif walks up the stairs and saw some meat-saws going haywire. “I gotta shut those down, wait here”. Neif did a roll under one of the meat saws and side-stepped another. It reached the switch and then pulled the lever, stopping the saws. Rena was so shocked to see a Slig risk their own life to save the Mudokon workforce. Rena had to hold back a teardrop in its eye.
Neif waved them over. As the Mudokons ran over, Neif was examining the LED screen. “We can use the mine carts to get to the next level. Everyone ready?”. Rena and Ali nodded, as they stepped forward. Each of them went into a separate mine cart. They started moving upwards, heading for the higher floor.
As the mine cart rattled upwards, the dust from the carts blew away into the dark canyon-like crevice below. Neif placed its hand on a horn, as they neared the station bays for the carts. They hit the breaks and all three of them stepped out. Neif sniffed the air, “Darn, there’s a fire!”.
