Station Omega
You access the terminal's environmental controls to check for anomalies in the escape pod bay. If the restriction is tied to a larger system malfunction or deliberate tampering, understanding the environmental data might help you bypass the lockdown or identify the source of the problem. You grab a loose piece of metal or another object nearby and throw it into the shadows of the escape pod bay. The noise could draw out anything—or anyone—hiding nearby, giving you a chance to assess the situation or prepare for a confrontation. You quickly scan the bay for materials to create a defensive trap near the terminal or the escape pods. Whether it’s a makeshift alarm or a deterrent, you prepare for the possibility that someone—or something—might try to stop you from gaining access. You navigate the terminal's interface to locate and review the station's security logs. These logs might reveal why the escape pod access is restricted, who might have authorized the lockdown, or if there’s a pattern of suspicious activity leading up to this moment.
