Hey, Hey! Free Loot!

You decide you need another break from all the fighting and sneak through an unmarked door, only briefly wondering why it's about five inches thick. Once you get inside, however, you realize why: you've found the armory!

You poke around a little, finding plenty of mundane, boring equipment that the soldiers here carry. Pressing your luck, you move towards the back, hoping for something a little better.

In the back of the armory, you spot a pillar and a tailor's dummy behind some energy security beams. On the pillar is a strange weapon you've never seen before; on the dummy is a suit of high-tech armor. You also notice several mounted weapons all around the goodies. You figure that might have enough time to grab one of the items before the security system rips you to shreds. Which is it going to be?

Options:

• Grab the gun!
  
• Accost the armor!
  

Results

If you chose Grab the gun!:

Grab the Gun!
Taking a deep breath, you jump through the security beams and grab the gun. The second you cross the beams, one of the loudest alarms you've ever heard starts blaring. You barely have enough time to take the weapon before those mounted lasers start firing and tearing the place up. You quickly beat feet out of there.

You got an item: ion beamer

If you chose Accost the armor!:

Accost the Armor
Taking a deep breath, you jump through the security beams and accost the armor. The second you cross the beams, one of the loudest alarms you've ever heard starts blaring. You barely have enough time to take the armor before those mounted lasers start firing and tearing the place up. You quickly beat feet out of there.

You got an item: pseudo-chitin armor
