DAY FOUR - THE BOMBS

[inferis]

[Well, the message has got out to you, you need to find those explosives, and fast! Don't forget to get your space suits on, and those on the Event Horizon need to prepare themselves to move to the Lewis and Clark]

[ Frodo just looks startled at the girl quickly getting into action, though he does rush to start on his way to the engine room, looking over his shoulder at the others to see that they are following. ]

What are we trying to find? What does it look like?

[sworn]

[The suit is ridiculously bulky, something she's not used to at all. But if they're going to get to the others, she's going to have to deal with it.]

An explosive. Given this vessel's technology, I suspect it may blend in with the ship. Keep a close eye out. Look for a detonator.

[the_effect_she_has]

[...She is not entirely sure if Frodo is a kid or just a really short man. Either way - he'll be useful. And she can't leave her friends trapped over there.]

Look for something about the size of a loaf of bread, with mechanical bits all over it. Probably with a timer.

[She adds, nodding at the woman in the bulky spacesuit, as she starts going through everything.]

[ofhope]

[ He has to work??? Awwwww. He can't even enjoy feeling like he's in a sci-fi book. This sucks.

Just kidding they're working with bombs. This is the best. Who was desperate enough to let Joshua near bombs and detonators? Or will be once everything's found, at least? ]

[bronwe]

[ Oh great, she made a food reference to a hobbit. Frodo nods and giddily gets to digging about the place! Even if he is still unsure how a loaf of bread can look mechanical. That doesn't sound very appetizing at all. ]

[sworn]

[Vereesa gets to work as well, eyes quickly scanning over the area in search of anything even remotely explosive-like. Nothing stands out, and she huffs in frustration, casting a glance to one of the others in the room with her.]

Any luck?

[inferis]

[Maybe down this hallway here...]

[the_effect_she_has]

[Katniss shook her head faintly. They would move on if no one had found anything yet.] Nothing. How about the rest of you?

[bronwe]

Nothing here either...

[ But if they're moving through the ship, Frodo will go scutter down that hallway there to peek around too. ]

[sworn]

[She watches him slip down the hall and quickly follows behind him. It's clear the room is not the right location, and he may be on to something. Along the way, her eyes scan the floor and walls.]

[inferis]

[There's something flashing on the floor, on and off, a little blinking light]

[ofhope]

[ Joshua is following the elf, but he is still looking for shinies. And lo! A shiny! Nobody notices those better than Joshua (hard for anyone to miss a blinking light though), and he points. ]

[sworn]

[Her eyes narrow at what he's pointing at, but once she sees, she's quickly pushing past anyone standing in her way. They don't have time for proper manners.]

Here, we've found something! [Good work, human!]

[ofhope]

The detonator?

[inferis]

[It certainly is a bomb! A little one, just sitting there]

[bronwe]

[ What is proper handling of explosives? Because Frodo's just going to swoop in and pick it up in his hands and chuckle a little. ]

Like a loaf of bread! [ What, he's amused. ]

[sworn]

[Dammit, Frodo!]

Be careful with that! You could kill us all!

[bronwe]

[ He contemplates dropping it but remembers that the box is probably prone to exploding so just holds it still, then lifts it slowly for the elf to hold. Elves usually know what to do... ]
