Seras sighed deeply as she knew the time had finally come. "Sophia, I'm a vampire, and that means I have to drink b-blood in order to survive." she said, trying to get it all out at once.

Having only ever heard of the word 'vampire' being used to describe the one vegetable Dace had used for the stew, Sophia wasn't really sure what to think about this development. "So.... like a mosquito..?" She asked questioningly before getting on track, waving her hands slightly. "WAIT wait wait, hold on, you're the vampire? What... exactly is that?" She responded following a pause.
"I'm going to see if Photon can work its way through the security based on the patterns it used to decrypt that cube we picked up." She placed the tip of Photon's barrel onto the panel and attempted to disarm the trap using the same decryption methods. "It'll also analyze the electronics and store them in memory for later use."
"...I can explain it later, the main point is, if I don't get some blood soon, I'm...going to die." Seras said, trying to stand up on shaky legs.
The alarm was triggered to go off when an incorrect code was entered or an intrusion was detected... which didn't happen. Ironically for one of the world's largest PMCs and one that focused almost entirely on cyborgs and mechanised units, their cyber security was quite poor. The door beeped and opened.
"Oh no." Sophia understanding the urgency of the situation now. "Um... Alright, so..." She said as she looked around thinking. "You just sit there. What kinda of blood does a vampire need? There's a bunch of different fresh animal slabs with some blood in them in the kitchen I think. Mosquitoes like that, so it should be the same right?" Sophia stammered, her tail puffing up slightly.
The armor clad creature grunted, and slashed his blade towards Hans. Hans flinched, only to hear the snap of metal. his hands began aching as blood flowed back into his hands. he looked into the faceplate of his savior. "And who are you?" he asked, surprising himself.
The predator smiled. "You can call me Henry. not my real name, but it'll function. now, lets get you some food and get you out of here."
Hans stood, standing carefully on shaky legs. "Lead the way. please." he said, his voice now emotionless and calm.

"...Human blood...Though, yours or Victoria's would probably work..." Seras said, looking away from Sophia again.
You thank EMily and tell her you'll take point, stepping inside. While keeping an eye and blaster firmly aimed at the robot, you pick up a heat knife and weigh it in your hand.
OoC: @Gear: Are these knives exclusively designed for throwing, or can they be used as a mêlée weapon as well?

The knife was razor sharp and perfectly balanced for throwing, and started warming as Shara picked it up, quickly becoming too hot to hold. She'd have no trouble throwing it, but holding it in her hand for anything longer than a few seconds would probably burn her to the bone.
The robot, which vaguely resembled a small T-rex, didn't move. There was a circular hole in its underside.
"Emily, if you can spare it, I need some energy so I can make repairs." Samus asked EMily, seeing they had a quiet moment.

"Right, human blood g-" Sophia repeated without thinking before stopping herself. "HUMAN!?" Sophia exclaimed, somewhat dumbfounded that it would be that specific. "Um... well we could... um..." Sophia panicked slightly. There wasn't anyone else on the ship really, Victoria was just recovering from what seemed to be hypothermia so taking blood from her was out of the question, and Sophia was reluctant to give herself up on various accounts.
Samus nodded in thanks to EMily, disengaging her armour. The Zero Suit had a large burnt segment on the chest, and there was a long ragged cut across Samus' face that aligned with the crack in her visor, made by the broken glass. she tapped the symbol on the back of her hand, brining up a swarm of Chozo script. She tapped her way through it, needing to asses the damage and repair it manually.
