Touring Joe Battles for the Space Station
This page, and those to follow, document the adventure of Touring Joe
as he visited Vermont as part of his extended '99
Summer Tour.
Accompanying Joe are Babs Dahl, recently of the Pink Aisle,
and Sgt Bytit, complete with his Sunny Smile. Joe's host in Vermont was
ScottE, HoloSuite@yahoo.com.
Determined to wrest control of the Space Station from the incideous trolls,
TJ heads for the lab and its ArmorBot equipped guardian.
To even the odds somewhat, he procurs a Power Loader ergonomic forklift.
It's designed to amplify his movements and back them up with muscles of steel.
TJ:
Muscles will have to do for this fight.
Projectile weapons would be a death sentence.
My only chance is that the Troll knows the ArmorBot's
weapons would breach the hull. The explosive decompression would
destroy the station, along with whatever lies within the guarded lab.
If they're guarding it, they must not want it destroyed.
That might give me an edge.
The bulkheads reverberate with the clash of steel on steel.
Each warrior struggles to gain the upper hand. The ArmorBot is bigger and stronger,
but the Power Loader proves more nimble in close combat. The scream of straining
servos and stench of burning insulation assault the senses.
TJ Succeeds in disarming the ArmorBot and knocking the Troll out of
the control seat. The security chief, Astral Playne, moves in for the kill shot.
It's a pneumatic weapon with limited range. It wouldn't due to have high velocity
projectiles in a pressurised environment.
ASTRAL:
Say Goodnight, TrollBoy.
With the little pink haired pest put to rest, the secrets of the laboratory
lay before the team.
