Losing the ability to move at every second, Makayla tries to find someone out of here. She finally remembers one possibility. There is an emergency saying that will shut the whole environment down. She has never used it before, because she has never needed to, but more importantly, she was told never to use it unless it is an actual emergency.
The command abruptly shuts the system down. At this level of complexity, it could damage some of the software and hardware. If you use it, she was told, it had better be for a really, really good reason. Holding up her arms to stop them from being frozen, she says softly, "I think this classifies as a great reason."
"Ok," she says loudly so that anyone (hopefully, someone) can hear her, "I'm doing an emergency shutdown here if you don't stop this now." Her answer comes quickly: silence. The result of her statement: another couple of inches immobilized. Well, she reasons, it is now or never.
