There was no sign of anything aside from the guest house, gardens, road and trees.

After a minute the owner appears from one of the rear doors. She looks... angry? It was hard to tell without zooming in.

"Somebody's pissed,..." said Richard, checking the scanner again. He was sure here somewhere the signal had come from, but where?
Maybe in the cave? Maybe they had missed something? He maneuvered back to the cave.

"Maybe we can't avoid leaving the safety of the cockpit," he thought aloud.

Now she really was pissed. The pilot had popped up and then moved back behind her guest house. It was time to call the sheriff. She storms back inside angrily. The waiter is told to shut up as she stomps past.

Back in the cave it is dark and wet.

Yori could tell there was a minor heat signature on ahead. Past the wall of the cave.

Richard was getting nothing.

Yori adjusts her glasses
"It appears that option 1 might be correct, there is heat coming from beyond the wall of the cave."
Looking over at Richard
"Should we go and investigate on foot?"

"It's very risky,.... But anything else would probably be a waste of time, people are already startled anyway." He weighed the options. "I'm better equipped than you in any case. My infantry armor and my rifle speak for themselves. In case of emergency, I also carry 2 plastifleshpatches. What do you think our chances are?"

"If there is heavy opposition our chances are... sub-optimal. It is unclear what could be waiting for us which makes an accurate prediction difficult. Perhaps we can carefully scout and if we detect significant opposition we retreat back to the mech?"

He nodded. "That sounds like a plan, with the Vulcan we can jump away in an emergency."

"Well then" Richard opened the cockpit of the Vulcan and equipped himself with his armor and his rifle. "Are you ready?"

"Not as ready as I would like, but as read as I can be given the circumstances."
Yori draws her revolver and checks it's loaded.

"I hope neither of us die, this day has been nice so far."
Yori starts trying to quietly head towards the heat signature on foot.

"If the resistance is too high we will retreat, I don't plan to die in a cave" he said and descended the mech.

It's a little cold outside. There is a pleasant sea air and the sound of waves cascading along the rocks. It was dark inside the cave.

What would they do next?

(Investigation [perception] if you're searching around please)

Richard was looking around, searching if there was some kind of entrance.

When close to it there was a noticeable straight line along the bottom of the far wall of the cave. Following it, Richard finds it connected to similar vertical lines a good ten metres apart. They went up to the cave's ceiling.

It was a lifting door.

There was, however, no sign of any console or way to open it from where they were on the dark slabs of the cave floor. Water continues to gently crash against the coastline and the rocks beneath the concrete viewing platform outside. It was good they hadn't come when it was dark.

"Hey Yori, take a look at this." he pointed to the lines. "Do you think that could be coming from there?" he pointed in the direction of the observation deck.

"It is the closest man-made structure, and very close to the cave. It is as good a point to start as any."

"Well, let's go there." Richard made his way to the observation deck and looked around.
