Usualy just means I don't really feel like it at the moment and rather than putting out an update I would consider to be lower quality, I just wait and think up some more ideas.

C. Press more buttons and hope to get out of there

It didn't take long for thinking time to become panic time. The Gretchin flew around the pod clawing at every little crack on the wall. Several started bashing buttons along with Nippy. The pod's engines started up again and it let out a deafening roar as it shook violently in place. The screen showed that they weren't going anywere. The Gretchin gave up their attempts of fleeing, it was useless, they accepted that they would likely be stomped into the ground in a few moments. The humies walked up to the pod, with the same expressionless faces. One tapped the side a few times quickly and the doors opened. The Gretchin ran out of the pod screaming but the humies didn't chase them. Nippy turned around to see what was happening.

"Maintenance protocol 938638473 active. Statis report in 384 seconds" said one of the humies, his voice was dull and emotionless. "Acknowledged. Awaiting statis report" replied the second humie standing off to the side, his voice equally dull and emotionless. "Wots dis den?" asked Nippy. The other Gretchin shugged. "Drop Pod number 28 pattern mark 3.84. manufactured on Forge World Maginus. M39.998. Assigned to Codex Astartes Space Marine Chapter Silver Blades, Company 4. Assigned to Captain Zacharie and acompanying retinue" replied one of the humies. The Gretchin lookd surpirsed at this, Nippy smiled.

"Wot is a spese mahrien?" asked Nippy. "Defender of the Imperium" replied the humie.

What will you do?
A. Ask where the other Space Marines are
B. Take command of the ship
C. Create your own choice

B, absolutely, although get the servitors to hack into the automated defence systems (i assume there are some on board) to kill any remaining Space marines/staff.

B. Take command of the ship

"Whoz ship iz dis?" asked Nippy. "It belongs to the Space Marines under your command, Captain Zacharie" replied the Servitor. "Wot?" asked Nippy. "You must be Captain Zacharie otherwise you would not have returned in his Drop Pod" replied the obiviously broken Servitor. "Is der any otha spese mahriens ere?" asked Nippy. "There might be a couple" replied the Servitor. "Dey shuld be on da grond fightin, sends da rest" said Nippy. The Servitor nodded and then sped off. Moments later more Drop Pods took off. Nippy and the others were at first surpirsed by it, but then started to laugh at how dumb these new enemies where. The Gretchin began exploring the ship. It was big dark and empty, the Gretchin were afraid, but the decorations around the place offered enough hiding places for them. Their wandering around eventually made them familiar with the ships layout the Cybork humies mostly gathered in the big loud and hot room towards the back. None of the Gretchin could read so they had no idea what it was called until they were told by a nearby servitor. "Wot is a N-Jin ruem?" asked Nippy as they were walking along an empty coridor. 'Maybe itz wer dey keeps all da N-Jins" said Speedy. "Didn da Big Mek say dat da trukks needs an N-Jin ta go?" asked Wheely-git. "Doz you has an N-Jin Smasshy?" asked Nippy. "Dun Knoe" replied Smashy.

They continued to walk and eventually came to the hanger. It had smaller ships in it that looked like they might be easier for the Gretchins to take over and keep contorl of.

What will you do?
A. Take the smaller ship and leave
B. Keep the big ship
C. Run to the N-Jin room and look around

A

B-why not?

I think I like B

B

A: I just have a bad feeling for B.
