"so we need to go to the engine room to fix this?" Maggie asks
"Not like we have a choice now"
"Yeah" Maggie sighs "hopefully we don't run into Veltro"
"yeah" Jill replies walking out with Parker and Maggie
"raymond!" Jill calls seeing Raymond up against the wall
"Take it you might need it like you said turning on the power won't be easy"
Maggie takes the iron ancher key "That key will get you through the casino on the first floor then you'll find a lift to take you to the bilge but tell me something first. You didn't ee any other FBC members here did you? I can't reach my partner Rachel damn it! I haven't heard from her since she went to the bilage I told you, The casino entrance is on the first-floor hall"
The three walk away from Raymond "Should we look for this Rachael woman?" Jill asks
"We can but after we bring back the ship's power"
"I think it was the woman we saw die she seems the part only person we saw other then raymond and the masked dude" Maggie suggest
"Maybe who knows at this point"
"why should even trust raymond happens to be there when the comms is broken and how nobody was told about the FBC"
"true we're being kept in the dark"

Parker Maggie and Jill enter the dark casino. "seems good quiet" Maggie whispers"except for the light after we do that then its ok" Jill explains walking around
Maggie looks up the stairs toward the back of the casino with her flashlight walking up the stairs seeing a lever pulling on it turning on the lights. Maggie turns of her flashlight turning around to lighted casino "wow"
"It's a luxury ship, they have things like casinos" Parker explains reading a book "107 chips hmm"
Jill presses a button at the fountain watching the water turn red "Holy--"
"Shit, it's been infected! Watch out!"
"I saw these in the video"
"Son of" Maggie runs over to Parker Jill and the fish kicking one of the fishes at they kill the fishes "now fish aren't friendly" Maggie looks down at something shiny picking up a coin then looks up the stairs to a plate and door "anyone want to gamble"
"your old enough now you do" Jill smirks
"Ha ha so funny Jill" Maggie chuckles walking to a machine
"you love me"
Maggie laughs hearing a sound of the winning song "did you win Jill at all?"
"No"
"but I did so One point for me" Maggie grabs the coins walking up the stairs putting 107 amount of coins on the plate opening the door to a small poker room
"down we go" Maggie looks down the ladder jumping down
Time skip
"Here's the lift hope it still works" Parker presses a button to move the lift but nothing "Oh Christ the key's gone""I'll look around for it"
"Yeah same"
"Ok I'll check around here see if it turns up" Parker says as they all seperate
Time skip
Maggie's alone walking in the dark hallways from when they first arrivedI wonder if Raymond's apart of veltro I really do think he is. I'm sure Rachel's dead that woman was Rachel. Only person alive is Raymond. Its obviously not Jill or Parker. Last time I trusted Ada too well no hard feelings at all but I trusted to easily last time and I shouldn't start trust too easily again.
Maggie stops thinking in her own thoughts in the hallway with the yellow door hearing giggling and Jill running "Maggie she's a zombie!" Jill asks
"Who?" Maggie reloads her gun
"Rachel she's a zombie she won't die!" Jill yells
"what do you-" Maggie sees a mutated Rachel jump out of the vent as Maggie looks shocked "what the hell" Maggie pushes Rachel away snapping her neck in the process hearing
"It hurts!" Rachel falls to the ground
Parker runs to them "Jill Maggie you ok!?"
"yeah" Maggie replies
"Does this mean Veltro Fooled the FBC too?" Jill asks
"Don't know maybe they're just using whoever they can right now we need to worry more about getting this ship operational"
They all get in the elevator down then run over to the lift putting the key in the lift pulling the lever going down
As they're going down they hear some noises "I hear something"
"Straight into the depths of hell"
The lift stops at the bottom level "What's that sound?" Jill asks "water?"
"Yes, it's coming from there" Parker tilts his head ahead
Time skip
Parker Jill and Maggie are walking in waist deep of water "its so flooded" Maggie holds her gun up not to get it wet then up the stairs into the engine room seeing gas everywhere"damn need to get over there" Jill looks at the same restart device on their side
"I'm on it" Jill goes
"wait" maggie has her hand up
"what?"
Maggie gets on top of the railing "don't push me"
"In this case I won't" Jill watches Maggie
Maggie holds her balance then jumps across the railing to the control panel holding onto the railing almost about to fall before she gets herself back up "got it" Maggie smile
"Scared me" Jill sighs in relief
"we should start them both at the same time" Parker suggests
"no key though" Maggie looks down seeing a keyhole but no key
"I'll be back" Jill runs out
Time skip
"Catch" Jill throws the key across the way as Maggie catches it putting it in the keyhole"get in position" Parker orders as Maggie and Parker turn the keys
"There good as new"
"barely" Jill comments
"good enough" Maggie puts her hands on her waist hearing noise seeing the doors get locked shut hearing alarm "what happened" Maggie looks to water flooding in "Parker Jill" Maggie runs to the other side with no gas in her way
"we're almost out of time!" Jill looks at the water filling
"Damn it Jill! Maggie It's not stopping!" The water's filling up to a point that they stand and getting dragged away holding onto walls
"Damn! Somebody anybody!"
Maggie spits out water "I can't swim!"
"Don't worry! there has to be a way" Jill yells as the water fills all the way up
