Hm? Was that a yes? She was taking it as a yes. Down that path we go! Or up that path, rather; the way the ship had settled made the floor slope gradually upwards.
It wasn't long before they found a bulkhead blocking their path, helpfully labeled as an airlock. "Oh! Would you look at that," she said brightly. It would be a set of two doors, of course, but at least they were the last two. She passed her light around its edge, looking for and quickly finding a keypad. "Looks like it takes a code," she said. "That is, if the ship's even got enough juice to open it."
If the psi-dampening field (or whatever it was) was weaker here, though, it'd be trivial to force it. On an impulse, she scrunched up her face and gave it the ol' college try.
This time it worked. With a loud, metallic bang, both sets of doors exploded outward, allowing the light to stream in onto their faces. Outside, the doors proceeded to fly off the edge of the Skyway and achieve the most unreal air time known to doorkind. Yeah they're not getting those back.
Aradia squinted against the glare, doing her best to block it with her hat, but her eyes adjusted fairly quickly. "Well!" she exclaimed. "That went better than I expected."
