<b>Actually, i HAVE a shotty... Read the story yourself...
It was said that my wife (In the RPG) was a TSA Officer... She was Killed in action, and because all her equipment was paid for, the TSA Gave it to me when i joined up.. It's accepted by xect. And when i die (I don't know if i want to now :/), if i die, i will say that in the last moments who i want to give my weapon to... And that will most likely be someone that xect say. But i'll tell you later if i really want to go... I think i'm gonna sleep over it</b>

<i>You arrive at the data storage. Mostly it looks like modern library, shelves with data disks all over the place. But the place swasnt used by the owners of the ship, that's for sure. The dead wires and cobwebs hang all over the place. Like a jungle, no way to get to the node somewhere in here without working your way past those wires, which must have starting hanging down when the attachments to the roof corroded because of the bacteria.</i>
