Chains of Command

[Boss]

I stopped about twenty feet down the corridor. I didn't have any way of knowing how well that security 'bot could reboot, and the last thing I needed was a pissed-off robot following me, particularly if it was armed. I didn't want to take that chance. I only needed the one shot to blow off its head, but I went ahead and shot off the railgun too, just in case. The trigger slid back. Click. I wasted valuable time extracting the dud round before squeezing off a pair of rounds into the upper body of the robot down the hall.

I got to the data center and eased open the door. I had no idea what sort of things they might have guarding the area, so I took it slow. As it turned out, nothing. Nothing whatsoever. I found a logged in terminal and started exploring.
