Half-Life Integral
First Hazard
I came to on a platform. The train I was on crashed into it and was mangled and destroyed. Roberts stood in front of me and helped me to stand.
"Whoa, I thought you died in the crash, guess we both got the devil's luck eh kid? Seems like something went terribly wrong and everything is all in chaos. Maybe if we both work together we can make it out alive." He told me as I began to walk on my own.
We both walked into a hallway and the vents overhead burst open and these crabs jumped down.
"Don't worry I can take them." Roberts said firing and killing all three. "Those will look good in my trophy room."
We kept moving forward until we reached a door marked Hazard Materials. I entered and no aliens or anything attacked.
In the corner was this blue suit that looked like Gina's. I went over and Roberts helped me into it. I put on the helmet and the voice inside it talked to me.
"Welcome to the HEV Mark Four Protective System, for use in hazardous environment conditions."
"Looks like you're lucky; a spare Hazard Suit was here. It should help you against these monsters. But you may need to rely on me for long range fighting."
I looked around and a crowbar was on the floor next to an open crate. I picked up the crowbar and looked in the crate. A battery of some kind. The suit reacted and I plugged it into the chest area.
"Power at 15 percent."
"Let's go." I said from the suit. The Helmet provided a Heads up Display of my health condition and my suits power.
Roberts and I walked further killing more aliens until we reached a barricaded door.
"Maybe you can crawl through the vent here and reach another area. I'll try to find another way around." Roberts said as we parted. I hacked open the vent with my only weapon and crawled through it. The suits flashlight came in very handy.
All of a sudden the vent broke and I slid out of it into this tunnel. I landed in water so it didn't hurt. Wading through it I climbed out and walked along the side into a security room.
"Hey. I tried to find a way out but got wounded along the way." An injured guard said slumping on the wall "I'd help but I can barely breathe. Take my sidearm; I can't even pick it up now. That thing on the desk has been making noises from time to time. Maybe you can figure out what it is." He said.
I placed the crowbar into this area on the suit and it stored it. Once I picked up the handgun it displayed the bullets in the chamber and spare ammunition I had, which was none. Picking up some magazines on the desk I also placed this disk like device into the chest plate. I heard Gina's voice.
"Hello, can someone hear me?" she said.
"Gina?"
"Gray, thank god. I thought you died because I didn't find you in my office. I'm trying to find my own way out too. Maybe from where you are you can work your way through the canals and over to the Sector C train platform where I am." She told me.
"I'll try my best Gina." I said.
I exited the room and found another vent at the other end of the tunnel. I crawled through and these crabs attacked again, luckily I shot and killed them before they could do too much harm.
"Minor lacerations detected." The suits voice said.
"Good thing I have this." I said.
Crawling further I looked through the floor and saw a man wearing a Hazard Suit the same color as Gina's and he was walking through an office complex by the looks of it.
Eventually I ended up in this pumping station and two pumps were there but only one was working. Luckily the switch for the stopped one was near it. I switched it to on. Then the offline one began to work. Unfortunately it overloaded and the water it was pumping overflowed.
"Oh shit! Now what?" I said as water began to flow until it reached the ceiling. "If I stay I'll drown. Where can I go?" Now the O2 monitor turned on and my condition became worse.
Swimming frantically I found a service shaft with an open vent. I went in and my health returned to normal after I exited the water. Working through the vents, monster free by the way, I fell again in some hallway. A dead security guard was there and I took the magazine from his gun and added it to my stash.
Then I was on a platform. "There you are!" I heard someone say.
It was Gina. "Thank god you made it. I don't want my intern dead the first day. That hazard suit should keep you safe through most of this. Turns out this train works but it may not get us very far. However it's the only way to go. Willing to take it with me?"
"Yeah, I want to get the hell out of here." I told her.
We stepped onto the train and it began to move. The voice was badly distorted.
"T-t-thiS TRaiN is InBOund. FrOM s-s-s-s-SECtoR C. Please Keeeeeep your limbs inside the TRAIn at ALL time." Then it gave out.
"Well together maybe we can find a way out of this madness Gray." Gina told me as we ascended.
