Airlock
Hissing shut behind his back as he entered the Moon Base, Bronco heard the electrophasic locks snap shut, and knew there would be no escape. Not until he had the child in his possession.
Cold and empty, save for a few specs of moon dust on the floor, the airlock is barely large enough to ride a BattleStag™ through. A confusing arrays of buttons and levers line the walls, conglomerating around the heavy metal shutters of the airlock door. Opposite, to the north, an energy field bars entrance to the rest of the base.
> north
Bravely steeling himself against the pain he knew would come, Bronco took a deep breath and lept through the energy field, bouncing off, hard, into the back wall. He jumped to his feet and, with a manly roar, thrust his hands into the field and sucked up all of the energy up into his brain. It was tingly and, for a moment, Bronco saw the universe laid out in beautiful patterns, rushing quickly toward him. It turned out to be the floor, but on the other side of the field.
Success! Bronco gains 10 points!
