100 words from a random word generator. And I write a drabble about each one. Sounds fun, right?

Ulrich, Yumi, and Odd stared at it.
And stared.
And stared.
And stared a little bit more. Jeremie looked proud of himself. He had found the chalkboard while they were exploring the factory. Trying to get a feel for the wretched building.
Ulrich spoke first. "What exactly is it?"
Jeremie smiled again. "I was looking around the supercomputer and I found this equation. I think it's used for the scanners. You see, alpha over-"
Odd held up his hands. "Listen Einstein, if you think it works then we'll just go along with it. I don't know about Yumi, but Ulrich and I are still trying to understand the Pineapplean formula."
The sound of Ulrich slapping his head was heard.
"It's Pythagorean, Odd, and I'll have you know that I understand that perfectly!"
Odd waved his hand and turned to Yumi. "What do you think, Yumi?'
Yumi, who had been staring at the equation shrugged. "Are we even doing the write thing? This isn't a game. Real people could get injured. Do you really think we're up for it?"
Jeremie shrugged. "We're past the point of no return."
"No, we're not," Yumi said. "We just found this place a few days ago, we can still tell someone. And we can make sure they don't do anything hasty. We could stop this before someone gets hurt."
Jeremie turned and looked at her.
"That's the plan. We're going to stop this before anyone gets hurt. I promise."
And they did.
