Gathering in Contagion
Sneaking through corridors armed to the teeth was something she'd gotten depressingly used to over her time on Stacy, but Trudy didn't think much of the latest threat. For one, the invasion was scattered across all decks of the ship, giving the crew small pockets of robots intent on taking over key areas. It made it easy to fall back to Level 1 and Level 6, respectively, to regroup.
Contagion was a safe zone for now, and Trudy intended for it to stay that way. In fact, she intended to retake this whole deck very shortly, once they had enough manpower to do it. Medical seemed to be handling themselves fairly well on their own, and the only spot that threatened to be overrun was Special Weapons.
"All right people, listen up, here's what we do. Move anything you can to barricade the windows to Contagion - we don't want them to know how many people we've got in here. We'll wait until we have a fairly sizable force and then we'll push out into the corridor and retake Special Weapons. From there, we'll push forward to Level 2 and try to force them out of the pod caverns. Fortify this position as much as you can and keep an eye on the corridor. Friendly target, pull them in. Unfriendly target, eliminate with extreme prejudice."
She didn't want any surprises, but she did want as many people on her side as could be had.

He spares a look back to her, turning from his work of getting a makeshift barricade built. "The ones that talk a lot and are colored in white are fairly easy to slay. Untrained mortals are managing them."

They didn't have enough people in here to make a stand yet, or to drive the robots out, but Trudy could start keeping them from adding more to the numbers threatening to overwhelm Special Weapons' defenders. A handful of the frailer white robotic drones rounded the corner and Trudy opened fire, squeezing off a few shots from her GIA-issue plasma rifle.
"We'll concentrate on securing this level before we go down to the next one."
