“The barracks is on deck four.” The man responded as a waist high spherical robot walked up, its four legs balancing its body over the floor as it turned a single, glowing, red eye towards Darux. “Drei will show you the way and answer any other questions you might have.” He would then turn and head down the hallway towards the stairs, his eyes focused on the datapad in his hand as the robot turned on its speakers,
“I apologize for that. I should have been here to greet you.” The robot said in a soft, feminine voice. “We just returned from a combat operation and all of my robots are busy running maintenance checks. Please follow me.” The robot would then begin backing up, walking with its eye towards Darux as it made its way to a lift. “You are being placed in the barraks with the rest of the marines, Grab any bunk and locker you want. This ship is equipped with a suite of power armor simulators and gym equipment on Deck 6. Though we normally use a marine vs marine set up for practicing power armor maneuvers I can simulate opponents from a wide range of skill levels. If you ever have any questions about how the ship operates, your duties, or where something is feel free to ask me.”
At the end of her length speech the drone would finally reach the marine barraks. Rows of bunk beds and lockers filled the room, all of which had been expertly folded and placed, still pristine even after the ship’s combat action.
