No sooner had the Operator landed on a pile of rubbish, than the birdman landed on top of her. Her landing hadn't exactly been soft but at least she hadn't hit a hard floor. "Ugh," She grumbled as she sat back up. It took her a moment to regain her wits. Fortunately, she wasn't hurt.
They were indeed in a pile of garbage. The room was very dimly lit with only a single door. Gazing upward, the ceiling seemed to melt into darkness obscuring any features or the hatch they'd come through. Unless the kenku could fly, which seemed unlikely, the tube they had fallen from was well out of reach anyway.
"Well this is just great, love," The Operator declared as she found her footing among the trash. The refuse came to her knees as she stood and based on the fact it didn't quite feel stable, she was pretty sure her feet were not on solid ground. When The Operator tried to take a step, she sank a bit as if in quicksand.
The place smelled putrid. The nauseating smell reminding her of a Tupalo from Janju IV who had bathed in space sewage. On a positive note, if there was one, at least the CEO hadn't come down the tube. If The Operator was lucky, her boss had been eaten by the LBEFT. If she was even luckier, they could make it to the door across the room without sinking in filth and the door would be open. The Operator didn't want to use up her luck wishing Xizz Xazz had been consumed by the LBEFT so she put that thought out of her mind.
"Okay, love," The Operator addressed Jet and pointed at the exit across the room. "I'm not sure who you are, but I assume you are here to rescue me. If that's the case, I need you to figure out how to get to that door without us drowning in all this debris and get it open so we can get out of here."
"Not so fast, dearies," a female voice said in a thick accent. Just then, a pile of trash rose from the rest of the garbage and took the shape of a face, blocking Jet and The Operator's path.
