Status: O THE SCAVVERS ************ We broached the bulkhead to the legendary Q-Decks with mineral acid. We breathed the stale air deeply -- no Scavver had roamed these halls, littered with fallen fluor-tubes and other treasures, since the times before The Great Dark. We found an intact Spiderbot above the ceiling. It had been programmed to kill, of course, and two worthies cursed the sorcerous Botmasters with their dying breaths before we brought the demon down. But any doubts about our mission vanished when we popped the J-box and watched the Holy Ohmmeter's dial dance in the presence of God. There's juice in them thar walls. -- This post is COPYRIGHT 1995, Andrew Solberg. All rights reserved.
