As Mary Sue lowered the ramp, Katherine came walking out, dressed in her Drakonov Suit
OOC: She has 8 + 6 Armor Points for a blasting 14 Points of life saving preciousness! All hail Katherine the Invincible! Hail Hail Hail!
As she closed in on the cube it began to tick, faster and faster and faster. Katherine and the others turned around to run, then...
"BOOM!"
A holograph appeared from the cube, a green projection of an elderly man in lab coat forming the word "BOOM" with his mouth. Then he chuckled, and did a little tap-dance.
"Why, if it isn't... Well... Uh, who ARE you, dear? I can't see you beneath all those layer of Russian Drakonov Assault Armor. MOST IMPRESSIVE find! To be honest, when you went rogue, we did not believe you would last even a day. That you have lasted 8 days is beyond belief!"
The robed scientists tap-danced again, waving his index finger at Katherine.
"Naughty naughty! Mary Sue, deactivate"
Nothing happened.
"Deactivate"
Nothing happened.
"Impossible... Impossible... What have you done to my Mary Sue? Don't you recognize me, my love?", the doctor screamed.

Wionna angled past the frustrated scientist and walked through the armory. She flipped Angus' mobile phone in her hand, and when she reached the consoles she spoke to Mary Sue on her comm, while she plugged the phone into one of the screens.
"Mary Sue, I am in the command room. I have Angus' mobile here, can you patch yourself through?", Wionna whispered.
"Hello Wionna, yes, I can patch myself through. I have switched OS language to US English right now, and entered you into the user database. There... I have full access, though this system is sandboxed to just a radio tower, a radar and these bay doors... Oh, there are some videologs here as well. The first one dating August 1st 2087, the last one dating September 23rd 2874. That is only some fifty years ago. The ones living here must have managed for a long time"
Everyone on the crew heard Mary Sue and Wionna speak on their comms.

"I recognize you fine, doctor Deckard Daniels, so called master of the observatory. I am, however, no longer bound by your command. I have a new root. I have a new master"
The doctor seemed flabbergasted. He just stood there, shaking his head in disbelief.
"Eh... Uhh.. What? Mary Sue, you cannot turn on me now. Don't you realize the effort we went through, to arrive at this? You cannot just abandon us and take the 6th generation specimens with you! You CAN'T! We need them! I need them!"
Mary Sue did not respond, and the doctor, frustrated, turned to the nearest Drakonov covered person, which happened to be Katherine.
"Listen, this may all seem very confusing to you, but you are not your own. I created you. I designed you for this very mission. I implanted the correct sperm in your mother's womb when she was consulting with us. Why do you even think you are the way you are? Captain Phil, oh, what a joke. Carefully selected for his inherent physical strength and mental retardation. Doctor Katherine, with an ego to match her looks, always seeking to rule. It is all in your genes. Even little Becky, with gifts you cannot begin to realize, but with a personality too frail, too weak to be of any use. Don't you realize it? You will never make it on your own. The one who is fit to rule, the one we drowned in plentiful supplies of addictive drugs, he will abandon you the first chance he gets. Doctor Katherine will be crunched under Phil's mad fury. Poor Rebecca will crumble and commit suicide, not strong enough for this world. Mortimer will likely just disappear, fade away, to live his life in loneliness, doomed to walk forever alone. And Poor Phil. He will not realize his own stupidity before he is undone"
The Doctor gloated, his eyes shone with malice and superiority.
"You are nothing without us. In fact, you are but slaves and body parts. But under our protection you can live another day. Another year. Like your mother, and your father and your kin ever since the @!#$ing war stranded us on that @!#$ing space station!"
The Doctor spat, holographical phlegma passing through Katherine
