Ex Machina; Infiltration
Characters: Riki and the infiltration team
Setting: administrative levels
Format: any
Summary: Riki's efforts must be sabotaged. Stealth is the name of the game and time is of the essence.
Warnings: psychological horror
Though the chipped unit does not follow, he sees to it that the team advances the rest of the way. At the end of the lit corridor is a set of double doors, heavy-duty polished metal with small windows set into each one.
Through the windows, a massive machine is visible, connected to thousands of holographic screens that are hard to make out at the speed at which they're being manipulated. The machine sits in the center of the room and is networked to four elaborate terminals stationed along the walls via a complex tangle of panels, wires, and towers. Each of these terminals controls its own set of floating screens; the sheer amount of holographic monitors in the room is disorienting, and really, it's hard to tell what's connected to what.
In the chair in the middle of the enormous set-up is Riki, maneuvering all of the screens with the same ease with which most people breathe. His back is to the doors that lead into the room, and for the moment, he is utterly engrossed in his work.

So, uh—how are we doin' dis? 'Cause I can try takin' any of terminals no one else is goin' after.
[Assuming Riki can't see right through glamoured equipment, getting to one of them should be a piece of cake. He's had plenty of experience flying right through dens full of villainous minions undetected to solve a time-urgent crisis first, at least.]

[All she could do was shrug.] I think we just choose a terminal? I could go after the first one in there.

[David makes a show of cracking his knuckles. Or ... well, that probably was his knuckles, but it's hard to tell with those thick armored gauntlets he's got on.]
[Far as he's concerned, all there's left to do is wait for the doors to be opened ...]
