”PED, do you have a scan feature?”
(NEGATIVE)
”Hold on, Olivia,” he said, jogging back over to the PED's.After a quick search, he found three that had attachments that might function as scanners.Looking over them, he finally picked one, and started upgrading his PED with the new components.His fingers flew as he detached and reattached parts here and there.
(NEW COMPONENTS DETECTED.SYNCHRONIZATION REQUIRED. ESTIMATED TIME TO COMPLETION TWO MINUTES THIRTEEN SECONDS.)
”Initiate synchronization,” he said in excitement.
(SYNCHRONIZATION COMPLETE. SCANNING ABILITY NOW FUNCTIONAL.)
”Scan all items in range,” he said, holding it up and watching where the scan light flashed, moving it as needed to include all of the weapons on the shelves.
(SCAN COMPLETE.THE FOLLOWING ITEMS WERE FOUND: GENERIC PISTOL, SONIC PISTOL, PLASMA PISTOL, LASER RIFLE, GRENADE LAUNCHER, ELECTROMAGNETIC RAIL GUN, PULSE RIFLE, SNIPER RIFLE)
”What does each do?” he asked, even though some of them were obvious.
(GENERIC PISTOL: A SINGLE-HANDED WEAPON THAT REQUIRES MATERIAL BULLETS, AND DEALS DAMAGE IN A SINGLE LOCATION UPON IMPACT OF BULLET.
SONIC PISTOL: A SINGLE-HANDED WEAPON THAT REQUIRES NO AMMUNITION, AND DEALS SONIC DAMAGE INCAPACITATING TARGET.

Dustin picked up a laser rifle after several moments of indecision.This was the only one that didn't make noise when it was fired.As much as he wanted some of the others, it was important that he not draw attention until he was ready for it.Turning away, he paused and grabbed a couple plasma pistols too, and then headed back to the PED shelf, after looking around the room some more.While there was plenty more to look at, none of it looked like it would help them at the moment, while he knew the PED's offered a lot of upgrades.
”If you see anything else exciting, let me know,” he whispered at Olivia, and she nodded as she went to look over the shelves more carefully.
Grinning at the assorted PED's he set his guns down close enough he could grab them quickly, and got to work sorting and examining each one.He didn't want to miss anything cool, and some of these definitely looked worth the time.
