prompt answer
"don't worry though black, together we'll keep the lights on."
sent up into space on the skeld along with a group of young eager scientists, flannery's mission was simple - take over the ship and eliminate anyone who gets in the way. flannery and his fellow "imposter" would be well paid (and protected from any legal troubles). it was easy in theory, but in reality it was a lot harder.
after a few days of life on the skeld, flannery had to make the first move. he followed one of the other crewmates, black, into electrical. they shuffled in close together, working on the small box of wires that were powering the ship's lighting system.
"pass me the blue one over there."
black's voice interrupted flannery's thoughts. flannery used his paw to hand one end of a blue wire over to black, who smiled lightly.
"thanks. wouldn't want the lights to go out on us."
flannery smiled back. "yeah, that would be a pain. don't worry though black, together we'll keep the lights on."
black exhaled lightly from their nose. grinning softly, they turned from the wires, most likely to head to their next task.
flannery quickly pulled out a knife to sabotage the wires, shutting the lights off in the room.
"red?"
black turned back, and shuffled toward flannery blindly, unaware of the fate they would meet.
