Post subject:  Choose Your Own Adventure IN SPACE

It's been a while since we've had one of these so Disk, Noid and myself are starting up a new one.

You know the drill: You post commands telling the hero what to do, and we respond to them. Obviously, stupid stuff like "kill urself lawl" will just be ignored. In the case of having more then one to choose from, we'll choose whichever one seems to be the most popular and/or whichever seems coolest.

Alright, here we go:

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

Ah, the Interworld Space Station. A place where hundreds of sentient species, regardless of language, shape, or culture, gather together for the noble and time-honored purpose of selling each other crap. It's been nicknamed "The Big Oyster" because of its distinctive two-disk-shaped design, but those who live there often have more colorful names for it; names that can't be repeated here.

It was founded in 220X by the combined efforts of the Human Coalition, and services at least a million sentients (the Coalition's politically correct term for the extremely diverse assortment of alien riff-raff that frequents the place) a day. Most of them are just guests, passing through on one of the shuttles that go there daily, because very few people would want to live in the Interworld...

It's a place where you can find just about any vice imaginable, and it attracts the kind of people who go by just one name, like "Razor" or "Muscles"; the kind of people who to crack their knuckles ominously and glare at you in a meaningful way.

Nowhere is this more obvious then Endeavor City, a place which the Coalition's Offical Guide to Travel oh-so-wittily describes as "the pearl of the Big Oyster". Technically, this is true: like a pearl, it's expensive, irritating, and is formed out of excess waste. Still, it attracts its fair share of thrill-seekers, fortune hunters, and just plain insane people.


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

You are one of those people, a youthful dipwad fresh off the shuttle from Altair. You're waiting for the security guard, who looks like a giant jellyfish (the Coalition is an equal-opportunity employer), to check your passport, when you hear a scream from the next terminal over...

You attempt to run, but are stopped by several tentacles. "Sir," says the security guard in a foreign dialect, "don't go running off without your passport." He hands your passport back to you.

You cannot hear anymore screams.

You shove through the hundreds of creatures walking every-which way. Most of them are taller than you, and most of them appear to be a lot stronger than you. None of them seem to care about the scream.

You arrive at the next terminal over, where a scrawny female with antennae appears to have fainted.

You shake her. She is still unconscious, and most people don't appear to care that you're shaking her. One crocodile security guard thing is giving you the eye, though.

Yeah, I probably should've done that. I'll PM a mod.

You run up to the crocodile security guard.

"Hey bub, what's the deal with the unconcious lady?"

He just continues to eye you and mutters something under his breath.

You go back to the fainted girl. She's wearing a blue blouse and blue pants. Her passport is gone.

"Stand back!" you shout. "I know CPR!" You bend down towards the alien lady and attempt to do serious mouth-to-mouth when suddenly...

"Hey, I'm alive, you know." she says testily. You jump back with a start.

"I-I-I'm sorry miss, I had no idea," you stammer.

"It's okay," she replies. You notice she has a slight Venusian accent. "It wouldn't have worked anyway. My species has six windpipes."

"Er, well, good," you say, starting towards the exit of the terminal. "If you're okay, then I'll just be on my w-"

"Wait!" she cuts you off. "Before you go, take this." She slips a strange card into you coat pocket. It looks quite expensive and is marked with a seal you don't recognize. Interesting...you turn to ask her what it is, but she's already gone.

"'Ey, Casanova, you gon' stand there all day or what?" barks the security guard.

Already did that.

You call upon your limited knowledge of Crocodilian (the security guard's race) culture to make an insult.

"Yo' momma so fat, when she sits around the brood nest, she sits AROUND the brood nest!"

Uh-oh. Bad move. He's looking even angrier then usual....

The only obvious exit is the other end of the terminal, which is being guarded by a couple more security grunts. They seem to be engaged in a Glaring Sternly At People contest and don't seem to have noticed you.

The card looks like it's made of paper made out of gold (it's the future/space, they have that) and has a seal that you still don't recognize.
