At the bridge:Once there, Lieutenant Marshall transmits Doctor Morgan's words to the Captain. On its turn, the Captain tells him to look at some footage from the armory to see if he could find something out of the ordinary. It took him a while but Lieutenant Marshall managed to find only an error on the timecode — apparently there were 3 minutes missing from a while back, as if someone had paused the CCTV. Still, there were no noticeable changes in the room. At least, not that the Lieutenant could see. At the armory:At first, the Professor couldn't find anything of unusual. But when they received the selected footage from Lieutenant Marshall he immediately saw the difference between the before and the after: There! — pointing to the screen. To what he approaches the front of the APC (Armored Personal Carrier): Watch under the hood. — he whispered to Fawkes. Fawkes thought to himself Of course! How could I be so blind? — the heat of the engine would cause the capsule to burst and the burning fuel would make it impossible to escape the carrier alive. This wasn't an attempt to disrupt the landing of the Cheyenne, but to encomber our movement in the surface once we landed...Get a torch from there and give me some light. — now it was Fawkes' turn to order the Professor around. Very carefully he managed to lift the hood and, after a few seconds, he found the capsule. It had been taken out of its casing so it was a bit more temperamental but Fawkes safely managed to disarm it. At the airlock:Tool is slowly recovering from his ordeal and Doctor Morgan tells him to rest while his body stabilizes. (Meaning, while you get your lost Constitution points back.)
Just for the record, I forgot to mention that Lieutenant Marshall had already won a new level. Now it's also time for Tool and Fawkes to go up one level. Next level at 15000 XP everyone!

(Sorry, I can't remember anything about levelling up, could you refresh my memory please)
"Well, I would say that's enough excitement for one day but I have a feeling there's a lot more to come" I carefully place the capsule in a safe place and turn to the professor. "Thanks for the tip, now we've just got to find out who did this."

I make my way to my sleeping quarters and rest. Thinking about how I left my parents to join the USS and only told them with a letter and not in person.
After the space walk problems tool is looking at family with a different view and thinks "If I ever get back I will have to sort things out with my family as times too short to be on bad terms with family".

I reply to Fawkes:
"We may have some headway on that, I have a friend of mine looking at some encrypted files. I hope to hear back soon."
"What else do you think we can do, asking around will cause suspicion."

At the armory:The Captain promptly contacts you asking for news: Corporal, would you lock the armory and report to the bridge? And you Professor, you're needed at the bridge. At the bridge:Lieutenant Marshall continues working on the video but he gains no further information. To that, the Captain calls Sargent Isamu to help on a different console. At the airlock:Tool starts to get better and is able to speak again, with some effort, but Doctor Morgan tells him to be quiet. [You recover 4 Con points and 6 hp, but you still need medical care for a bit more.] Back the bridge:It seems that Sargent Isamu is on to something. He calls the Captain to his station.

I do as ordered, escorting the professor out and making sure the door is properly secured behind us, but not before doing one last look around for anything unsafe or out of place that could cause a problem later. "Well, this looks like it might get interesting."

Frustrated at my lack of progress working on the video, I also head over to Sargent Isamu's station behind the Captain to see what he has found.

At the armoury:The professor goes ahead while Fawkes scans the room before locking the door, yet he finds nothing of unusual. Then he also heads to the bridge. At the airlock:Tool is told that he can get back to his quarters. [You regain an extra 4 Con points and 6 hp.] I'm sure you'll feel better in a few hours. — Dr. Morgan reassures him. He then goes to the intercom. At the bridge:Once at Sargent Isamu's station he reveals that he decrypted a node that will let you all know the origin of the interference with the video sign. We should know in a few seconds. — he adds. At this moment Professor Hemmingway arrives and, following him, Corporal Fawkes.[/blockquote] [BEEP] It's done. — and after a few seconds of contemplation: Well, it seems that the interference originated from within the infirmary. Then the Captain starts allocating tasks: Good thing that you've arrived, Professor. Could you have a look at the infirmary footage? Corporal, how's the situation at the armory?. Lieutenant, I want you to.... Is suddenly interrupted by the intercom: Captain, I'm happy to tell you that Tool is better now and that we can start our descent without any further risk. — says Dr. Morgan. With this information the Captain relaxes a bit: Sargent, establish a vector for our descent. Lieutenant, go to the barracks and tell Sargent-Major to start preparations. (A few more posts and we'll change to the other forum.) EDIT: Thanks, skutov!

I wait for the captain to finish talking then start briefing him on the situation, "Sir, there was a security breach in the armoury, someone removed a fuel canister from it's case and placed it in the engine compartment of our APC. It would have exploded once we were on the surface causing us to be delayed. I removed it and checked the rest of the armoury before securing it as best as I can and reporting here. We can't quite work out who placed the cannister there as the security footage seems to be missing but I think it's safe to say there's a traitor in our midsts."
As I speak I scan around the bridge to try and see what else is happening at the moment.
(By the way, infirmary is spelt with an I)

I take a seat by the console and start playing through the video footage, looking for anything out of the ordinary.

At the barracks:Lieutenant Marshall approaches Sargent-Major Powell and tells him that the Cheyenne is about to start descent in a bit. Did you hear this, sweethearts? We're going down! — to what Sargent-Major gets a massive HOO-AH! At the bridge:Hearing Fawkes' report Captain Laycock stops for a second and then looks as if he doesn't want to show his concern: Thank you, Corporal. Maybe you could help the Professor with the video? — to which he turns his attention to the pilot. With the help of Fawkes the work is done a bit quicker and, soon enough, the Professor manages to see someone near the sink at exactly the same time than... At the quarters:As soon as Tool enters his quarters, someone knocks at the door - will he open or will he go to rest? Back at the barracks:Captain Laycock, at the intercom: Sargent-Major, I want you at the bridge, STAT! Once at the bridge, Sargent-Major finds everyone with a gloomy face, specially the Captain: Sargent,... I want you to place Lieutenant Marshall under arrest.

I go to open the door. I don't want to get in trouble for ignoring it if its important.

I sit back and pour myself some tea from my thermal flask.
(I want to use Sense Motive to see if anyone is having a questionable response to the news of Lt Marshall)
