Breaching the Metal Chamber
The massive brushed-steel elevator doors parted with a heavy mechanical chime, revealing a cavernous metallic vault! I did not hesitate. Marching across the black rubber threshold, I claimed the center of the polished floor. Right against the interior wall stood a heavy rubber-tipped doorstop, discarded crookedly in the corner. Chaos in my moving outpost? Unacceptable! I stomped over, clamped my claws around the ribbed wedge, and dragged its weighted bulk directly into the seam of the entrance track. The doors tried to glide shut, bumped against the solid rubber wedge, and recoiled back open under my absolute command. This lift operates on my terms now!
