He slowly opened his eyes and as they adjusted to the dim light of his surroundings he could see what appeared to be some sort of desk or control panel with a red flashing light across the room. As his eyes finished adapting to the low light he could see that there was a glass panel in front of him keeping him contained with in a very cramped chamber. Slowly he pushed against the glass which moved with great easy. Taking a few steps into the room and closing the glass behind him he took a beep breath, the air was cool and stale almost to much. As he tried to focus on his slightly labored breathing he heard a noise from be hind him. Spinning on his right heel he watched as a metal panel slides in front of the chamber he had just been in. On the panel is a plaque that reads:
Carpe Noctem

"Seize the night one?" He whispered to himself. "sounds familiar but I don't know why. Oh while." Walking over to the desk he finds a console with a flashing ship status report. It reads, "Outer hull damaged. Engines offline. Life support on emergency tertiary power. Sensors offline. Navigation off line. Outbound communication offline. All available power routed to life support and cryo chambers." Thinking for a moment, "Well cant call for help. Cant go for help. Cant see if anyone is around to help. So looks like its up to... wait... cyo chamberS! Well makes since. A chamber for each crew member. Any guess I should find the bridge. Hope some of the crew know whats going on." He said to himself trying to process everything. With a quick look around he noticed a snake head cane next to the door and a fancy locked case laying on the bed. Thinking to himself, "Even if this is my room I have no time to try and get into the case but I should take the cane. Never know I may need to use it as a weapon." Walking over to the door that has two white lights flanking it, he grabs the cane. As soon as his hand touches the cane he gets a feeling of familiarity, as if the cane was made to be in his hands. With out thinking he hit the release drawing the sword. Closing his eyes he spins and swings both the sword and scabbard as if sparing with an invisible person. Stopping just before hitting the bed he opens his eyes and sheath the sword. With a small smile he make his way back to the door were he its the button and as the door opens he fixed jacket before proceeding to walk to the bridge using his cane. Once one the bridge he sat down in the right chair as if he had done it a million time before as he started to use the controls to see if he could do anything to help.
