[bendytime before Trudy's rally in Contagion]
Chancy as it was to move between levels, it was still quite often a necessity. Especially when there was more to try and get out of Medical and the nearby Science Department, before the cogs and wheels hands of SHODAN ran amuck over everything.
It didn't make for easy transitions, on the otherhand. Those traveling upward found themselves abruptly diverted to the second level, at the hub of the pod caverns. This unintentional side-effect of something the wired fiends were doing made it both necessary to stop off and stay out of a larger group's way, as well as finding immediate progress elsewhere inconvenient. Getting down to the MedBay again would be easiest, and with a safezone set up in Contagion it wasn't a bad bet.
The problem primarily being they still needed some contact and transfer of supplies between safepoints, if that really could have been left in more organized hands. Things the ship needed to work on? Possibly a sense of coherency, but Sakura was admittedly biased. It's what she expected from folks at home, and what she'd been made to act on and with during the war. Her war. Her world's war. Might as well apply it to space.
Whatever poor sods had also gotten the shaft and ended up in the hub to the pod caverns had similar options to what Sakura was facing. "They were headed this way. We need to move." Finding someplace to either be out of the way and line of attention, or to use as a stronghold if they needed to, would be important. If the metal and plastic minions were following them into the caverns, they'd hopefully leave soon afterward. If not...
If not, they had even more of the many problems SHODAN had dropped in their deliciously frail buggy hands.
[ ooc: Any and all who wanted to be around before the Pods were known to be under attack/to witness the Pods coming under attack, get in here! Trudy's rallying for a drive of robots out here -- SHODAN will be killing pods in this log. ]

magic. intuition. Caitlin not paying attention to what she tags with. :(
But he saw Beast Boy go down, witnessed Hit Girl going after him, heard and saw Rory-- who was definitely safe. And talking to him-- real name aside. Because he was right. Red Robin had to fight hard, but he needed to step back. This wasn't time to let himself slip.
He tried to pretend it was just him calming down, but his moves became a bit more focused, though he barely missed a beat. He stepped back, closer to Zouichi. "Good, Hit Girl. Make sure he's somewhere secure or with someone who can alert for help, if he's going to be left alone." He still felt angry and it likely showed in his voice, but he was trying to rationalise.
"Zouichi, are you back to full strength?" He'd not had a clear idea of how it'd affected his coworker, before. He was trying to push out the rage enough to assess their strategy. "Rory, stay close to balance out your limited supplies."
