This briefly stemmed the plans of the alien infestation for a while, though several unaffected crew members such as Yount were killed, and Bronson gave orders to finish off survivors rather than take chances that they might be infected. As the situation deteriorated and they didn't know who to trust, Bronson's team ultimately began to shoot anything that moved. For the next two days, the Operations Deck turns into a war zone between Bronson's security team and the Many.īronson and her security team tried to terminate all compromised crew members, such as Malick. With most of the heavy weapons and security measures already compromised, Bronson rallies what security personnel she can (about fourteen or so) with what armaments she can at 05:00 hours, and attempts to storm the Operations Deck at 06:00 hours. All primary sub-sectors are to undergo lockdown, and any crewmen who resist security personnel will be shot on sight. With the captains of both the Von Braun and the UNN Rickenbacker compromised, Bronson became the most prominent obstacle during the Many's takeover of the ship.Īt some point between midnight and 05:00 hours, the late night of July 7, security chief Melanie Bronson manages to get onto the ship-wide PA system and declares a state of emergency, and that she is imposing martial law.
Bronson lost several of her men and those that were sent to recall the defective turrets never came back. Infected crew members hacked into XERXES security sub-systems, turning the turrets against the security forces. She had checkpoints and computer-controlled turrets installed across the ship, enforcing a sort of martial law. Bronson's strict and uncompromising approach to ship's security led to her being unpopular with much of the crew, especially as the situation aboard the Von Braun deteriorated after first contact, during the spread of the influence of the Many.
