"It looks like all the elevators in this sector are out of commission," the soldier with the slate computer sighed from a relatively familiar crouched posture of planning. "We’re not out of this yet – not by a long shot. You wouldn’t happen to remember what you did to get that elevator to stop – would you, Ma’am?"
