Meanwhile, back in the Drive room...

“Gomez, How long would it take to cut through the plexiglass?” Asked Cassandra.

Alfredo sized up the situation before answering, "If we had ze proper cutting tools, Eet might take a couple of hours."

"Smeg, that means we're going to go to engineering as well and get them." Said Cass with annoyance.

"Hey, there's a complete set of heavy duty cutting in the shuttle repair area down in the vehicle hangar." piped up Alex from behind everyone.

"Is it just me, or did somebody just fart almonds?" blurted out White Wolf, whiskers twitching in distaste, "I hate those things, they always get stuck in my..."

"Wait, Almonds?" Interrupted Phi, then she quickly motioned toward the drive room door Jay just left by, "Holly could be pumping in cyanide gas - Everyone get out of here now!"

The small group reacted as if lightning had just stuck nearby and scrambled as quickly as they could through the exit.

White Wolf immediately keyed the lock on the door behind them. Then spotting a gaggle of zombified crewman moving down one end of the corridor toward them, grumbled while pointing "Ah cripes, we just agro'd ourselves another batch of trouble. Alright - Alfredo, you, Davie and Alex head down the other way to the hanger bay and retrieve those cutting tools. The three of us will create a temporary distraction with this bunch so you can get a head start, then we'll see if we can override the environmental controls and clear the drive room of any gas."

"How in the world are we going to create a distraction - wave our tushes at 'em?" Inquired Cass sarcastically.

White Wolf smirked & pointed towards a large med kit mounted on the wall labeled 'Dr. Keto Emergency Medical Ointment Co.'.

Phi's eyes widened, "Oh dear, I didn't know we still had any of those units left about!"

{Tag - What do Davie, Alex & Alfredo do? Do they succeed in getting the tools? Or does something go wrong? How much does Phi know about Dr. Keto's infamous ointments and what will they do? Will Cass, Phi, & White Wolf succeed in distracting the zombies with the kit? Can they evacuate the gas from the drive room? }
