[QUOTE="johndaw16, post: 3423250, member: 12033"] [b]Daniel[/b] Once Cage fishes out the lights, I take one and hand Riko hers, and step outside to do the same for Grandbanks. I call back to Cage, [COLOR=SeaGreen]Hey, appreciate the lights man.[/COLOR] Where's Bender? --- Bender scampers up seconds after he's called. He just motions for you to follow him and takes off. Within a few minutes you've all made your way to the top-most drain pipe. Bender stands at the entrance and points towards a metal catwalk that is suspended a few feet above the rushing water. --- [b]Riko[/b] I slink past Bender onto the catwalk and start heading further into the pipe.
