Hanging halfway out of a window of a moving truck to try and secure cargo while under fire was among right up there with the kind of stupid you saw when a guy tried to hold a mattress on the roof of his car with just his arm. Tug as he might the load would do little to heed his will, plasma fire...

He would have loved to have seen the blue blood of alien gore splatter the walls as they loaded into the vehicles. But the alert aliens dove for cover and the boom of frag grenades did little to sway their enemy. He wasn’t just counting on luck and a good toss. If he had this would be a totally...

At least somebody seemed to be listening to his prayers. His patience in this regard paid off, at least partially. With only two elites at the doorway, their chance of escape looked a lot better. A ghost sitting at the ready for them was still an issue and would make their exit a running...

He looked to Drenneck expecting her to answer, he already suspected he knew the answer. He had spoken up with the simple question for a few reasons. In a group as large as this people could have trouble feeling motivated to ask questions in front of a large group. He hoped his trivial question...

13 was still enjoying looking at the distant foliage when his focus shifted to the man approaching him. He turned and quickly identified Morgado. 13 met the man's handshake with enthusiasm. “A pleasure to meet you, Morgado,” A slight pause and 13 found a personal file and knew the general...

Hearing the all-clear from his boys he took the liberty of standing up and wiping the sweat from his brow. He began to make the sign of the cross on his chest and say thanks to his Saint when the rest of the news dropped. He leapt from the truck and tucked behind it he again made the sign of the...

13 found himself discovering new displeasure for travel. While he had been powered down for the duration of their flight here to Krasivvy he was growing impatient now as he sat in the shuttle. He began to tap his metal foot against the floor before stopping suddenly as he realized just how much...

He didn’t have to stand there and watch his team to see if they got to work, it just happened. He focused on stacking hard cases in the bed of the truck. The fact that they were not being shot at gave him time to lay things in an orderly fashion, he also laid each piece down gently trying to...

Regardless of the enemy they faced, the discipline his men showed under pressure was reassuring in its own way. Equipment began to move and everyone stopped checking their weapons. The pieces started to align as his men moved. “I want Torch and Limbo on the lookout. The rest of us haul gear as...

Cesar glowered out the window for a few moments as his team discussed the predicament they now sat in. Covies were running all over the city, but to set up across the street from him? Lady luck, Santa Maria, or whoever weighed the scales was not looking favorably upon him at this moment. The...

After he heard the explosion from his first rocket he was hoping to find a sense of relief. Instead, a hail of fire pelted the building, and based on the shudders from his robotic companion Big Dawg took some hits as well. He worried little about Dawg until the second rocket splashed down and...

His grenade sailed through the sky in a beautiful clean arc, Bret didn’t take time to watch it, they may be only grunts but he would not give them time to fire in retaliation. He rushed back into the building and took cover behind the door. After the sound of his explosion he heard something...

With the preparations he had made and his intent focus on this distant Spirit he felt like he had been ready for what would come. Yet a squelch over the comms as doc called out contacts made his jump slightly and he turned his view towards the new source of trouble. Grunts, the most common sight...

A smile crept across Bret’s face as he heard Black clear him to engage if the spirit moved in towards them. Attacking the craft came with multiple risks, but the satisfaction would be worth it to him. He glanced at Bunny, so long as they could minimize casualties. “Bunny Any luck with the...

Bunny kept silent as Black began questioning Langdon. Already, just from the first couple sentences spoken, it was evidently clear that this man hadn’t been where he should have been. At least, as far as they could situationally. She began to nod alongside Black’s words, but froze at the mention...

Even as the man turned and raised his hands Bret's finger increased the pressure against the trigger until the man promptly dropped to the floor and began to obey his orders. The grey ONI jumpsuit made it easy enough to identify him as non-combatant and even more so as something, not a threat...

As the top of his head cleared the final stair he started scanning the room he had not heard the noise Bunny did yet but that was not surprising. Years of demolition had not been kind to his hearing. All the same, he listened, straining to hear the noise she did. As he scanned the room it was...

The droning rumble of the tires moving over the road was mostly all Bret could entertain himself with. That and Blacks orders to the others. He kept focused on the roads though, especially as they started ascending into the mountains and the turns grew sharper and the roads steeper he pressed...

The rumble of the engine under his seat had Donnell ready to apply Throttle. But he wasn't so hasty as to disembark without an order, after all, people were still getting settled and finding comfortable positions. He adjusted his own seat sliding the chair back and up slightly. he muttered to...
