Cleopatra 2525


Pod Whisperer

Hel, Sarge and Cleopatra go to the surface to attempt a peace mission with the Baileys. Three Baileys approach them, but the team does not activate its shields. Hel produces a holographic image of the Bailey energy pod they recovered and the Baileys strongly react.

Cleopatra begins to hear a strange buzz that is undetectable to Hel and Sarge. She then hears a synthesized voice that urges them to return the pod. Suddenly, the Baileys arm themselves and attack the team. They activate their shields and Sarge and Cleopatra make it back to the underground entrance.

Hel becomes trapped and takes a hit. She urges her team members to go on. Voice remains in contact with Hel and tells her that another shaft entrance is two kilometers away and that she only has ten minutes until total shield failure.

Sarge and Cleopatra return to the lab and they begin to track Hel's movements. They realize Hel doesn't have much time and Mauser opens a secret door in the lab, revealing a high-tech flying machine. Mauser tells them he built the vehicle, which uses the Bailey energy pod for power, as a pet project. Sarge and Mauser don't realize it, but the pod and Cleopatra have a special connection.

Within minutes, Sarge and Cleopatra are in the vehicle racing for the surface. But when they exit the Underground and begin to dodge Bailey fire, the craft reacts negatively towards Sarge and begins to spin out of control. Cleopatra smoothly takes the controls and they speed off to rescue Hel, who is now warding off Baileys and Betrayers. They find Hel and pick her up just as her shields fail. With Cleopatra at the helm, the team escapes Bailey fire and safely returns to the lab.
