"Hello?! Anyone here?!"
*sigh*
"Of course. The evac ship gets shot and loses power, we crash here, I'm stuck in this useless evac suit, and it's the dead of night. Thought that ship was supposed to be 'The greatest in personnel evacuation!' or whatever."
*unintelligible, rising anger*-and now how am I supposed to tell them I'm ok when I'm stuck here, losing power, with no idea where the nearest outpost is, if any!"
*long sigh*
"I should check if I even have a connection to the net from here, shouldn't I?"
*footsteps*
"Well, there only seems to be one option. And because it was activated when i turned on the suit, no reason to turn the distress beacon off."
"What's that sound?..."
*footsteps, away from box.*
*unintelligible shout*
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THA-"
*loud pulse sound, then static.*

[Panicked]"Nononononononono that's it i'm getting out of here, whatever the hell that is it CLEARLY isn't liking this thing."
"I should grab this..."
LOG: >NOTICE: Disconnected from power. Blackbox battery at 100%.<
*running footsteps*
LOG: >NOTICE: Leaving pressurized environment. Connecting to nearest suit audio system...<
*laser fire and an odd roar is heard in the background as footsteps continue running.*
"Cmon, I know there was an SRV on this thing somewhere, open up you damn door!"
LOG: >NOTICE: Identification successful. Transferring emergency security ID to connected suit...<
"-OPEN, YOU DAMN-"
* a whrrr and thud is heard as a hanger opens.*
"Guess that works, huh? Now where's the damn SRV?"
*explosion*
"cmoncmoncmoncmon- THERE!"
*footsteps start sprinting and a door hiss is heard*
"Cmon... Alright let's see here "start" would make sense"
*background engine whrr*
"YES! Let's get outta here!"
LOG: >NOTICE: No audio detected. Playing next file...<
LOG: >NOTICE: Blackbox battery 75%.<
"...telling you, I crashed and there was something out there!"
[female voice] "Yeah right. Where's your ID."
"R-right here. But I'm telling you, it looked... Alive? I guess that would be the right word?"
"Well, I'm not the person to talk to about that. But for now, as this is a military settlement, I'll have to ask you to hand over that blackbox. You can have it back after it's completely analyzed to see the cause of the ship crash, and once you're out of the base."
"Alright, well here you go then."
