IC ~ Galaxy at War: The Zethian Invasion.

[jayjaycaps]

Argo smiled a big, toothy Krogan grin again. This was his favorite type a fight- A losing one, one were he would save everyone's asses and look like a hero. Weighing the situation, he turned to the men behind him. "Go. Support the Left Flank. Don't let a single human break the line. I'll get the turret."

And with that, Argo charged into the battlefield, making his way over to the left runway, occasionally sending a few shotgun shells over to the middle battle. Once at the front lines of the right flank, Argo reloaded shouted out his favorite rallying cry to his men. "KROGAN, TO ARMS!" All the Krogan across the camp heard this call, and answered it with their own, deafening cry. "NO RETREAT, NO SURRENDER! SMASH ALL OTHERS, COMMANDER!" Argo laughed, and let out his second favorite cry of war: "CHAAAAAARGE!"

Argo didn't need to look back to know that his men were following him. He ran straight towards the opposing humans, roaring in rage and blood lust. He fired his shotgun furiously, pumping it and aiming at whatever enemy's body was the closest. Still firing and running, he shouted back: "Someone get on that turret! Support the left runway! Bring it down if you have to!"

And did the Krogans charge.. They did, actually. Things began to get a new humor now that Argo was in the battlefield.. And they were getting bloodier by the second.. Human troopers were being pushed back at the main front with low casualties for the Krogans.. The left flank was getting lost pretty quickly, probably where the top-shots of the humans were.. The right, however.. Was unstable for both while Argo began to charge straight down the runaway and toward the human troopers..

And Garian's gun blazing maneuver would be stunned by a charging Krogan, looking badder, bigger and meaner than all of those around him.. Angered the 'boss, eh?.. The shy female trooper from before pulled Garian back out of the Krogan's way, shooting her entire clip at the Krogan in attempts to stop him.. Her fellow squad mates laying down some suppressive fire upon the Krogans behind the Boss-looking one..

Saeko was done after a while, putting down the delicacy upon Ravier's eyes.. A bowl of sweet, drooling-delicious soup waiting for him to eat it.. She gave him a spoon before sitting down next to him and she whispered a prayer to the Gods before beginning to eat her own bowl of soup..

There only arrived minutes of silence before Admiral Hackett spoke once more..

''Admiral Edge, you've got permission to rescue your crew. But make it swift and quick. I can't have you lost in that planet and lacking you here in the field. I understand. Contact me again when you're on your way, Hackett out.'' The Admiral had said before the connection was severed by himself.. Dan walked into the room, taking the radio and pressing a couple of commands before it shrunk and changed until resting on Dan's wrist like a long armband.

''I'll keep this. 'So, Admirell Edgy, you're ready to save thy Princess Shelly?'' He said mockingly, talking with his humorous Irish accent.

The escape pod was descending with increasing speed, outmaneuvering the Apis while it seemed on a crash-course with the world Varium.. The black orbs stopped following the Apis as soon as it entered the world's atmosphere, leaving only the slight fog around most of the world the only thing surrounding the skies..

@Ikechi & Angel, On a Shuttle nearby the planet Soulas Das-Nobu.

Susan remained quiet as Emile kissed her head, whispering about her not dying because he wouldn't ever forgive himself.. Then he held her tighter, front body pressed against his own front side before the pod rammed into the shuttle and sealing the hole up.. Susan followed him, glancing at the guards as they nodded and began to check everyone's registration documents.. The engine room was vast, but not larger than an average room.. Susan took out her pistol as told, staying behind Emile at all times..

Haze would hear all of Emile's talk.. She better get ready, or else.. .. .. ...

The door was jammed badly.. But a good deal of physical effort could pry it open.. Or make things worse.. There seemed to be no other escape routes, unless a very narrow hole pulled out of the sides could count as one.. It would barely allow anybody to crawl out.. Things could break or cut.. The flames and warmth got nearer.. Their visions getting blurry again with smoke..

@Rooiehan, In the planet Azuli Terra; Hotel opposite of the Marquis Hotel.

A soft breath came from the other end of the line, Anthony nodding to himself before beginning to set into action.. This is how it played out..

Anthony walked into the area that was the balcony, stepping up to greet the 'fat-bastard' while beginning to lure him into a talk about businesses and fan-stuff, the regular.. He caught the bait, soon beginning to give his back to the hotel where Yuuko was.. There, perfect head shot.. Anthony seemed nervous, but it wasn't recognizable.. Only Yuuko could see that.. Although time was running out, since a pretty lady was speaking with the fat-guy's guard.. They weren't looking her way, nor they should be.. Time, felt, slow..

[That_One_Guy]

Garian was lucky he was pushed out of the way, or he woulda been trampled. He stood up quickly again and aimed his gun at the Krogan that rushed him, firing bursts into the Krogan's head. "You going to let these Krogans charge us? Show them what it means to be the baddest!" He told his squad, "Make them Falter under our guns, if they get close, show them your blades. Do not let me down!" He commanded, standing tall and firing more and more, preparing another grenade for, if it gets close to him again, he'll plant the grenade against the armored joints of the Krogan.

[thealchemist]

Tu'Vak looked at Claire sighing. "We have to force that door open." He said while sticking his claws in between the doors and attempted to open them.

[Angel_Slayer_Alcatraz]

Haze pressed her back against the wall next to the door and put her hood on, what the hell had happened?! Was it the person in the engine room? An interigation was in order

[TheDaughterOfHades14]

Claire runs over to help Tu'Vak. "On the count of three we push (or pull) as hard as we can." she says.

[Rooiehaan #2]

Yuuko kept the headphone turned on, and got ready to take the shot. Too close for gravity to take its tool, nor would wind be a factor. Her breathing was steady, and she was calm and prepared. nothing would mess up this shot; well, nothing on her end anyway. She saw how Anthony was doing his part as diversion, magnified by her scope, and noticed how the man had his back turned due to the deep conversation. The body guard, the only one with the potential to be somewhat of a threat, was busy flirting with a girl; internally, yuuko shook her head. guards these days. She flexed her hands and stretched her fingers, before putting them back on the trigger. she aimed carefully, and slowly started squeezing while the reticule was aimed at the fat guy's head.

[Reaver]

He walks to what he thinks is he middle of the room before pullin out four little white orbs out of his black ops belt. He tosses each of them into a different corner before saying "activate." The orbs light up, bathing the room in red lights. He turns to Susan, glowing with pride at his gizmos. "this one I got on Tarus when I had to clean a dark cave of force giant bugs that his in the dark." he scans the now bright room looking for the assassin. "just come out I only want to talk right now."

[Angel_Slayer_Alcatraz]

She sheaths her sword and walks out from her hiding place
"Who are you? why did you disable the ship?! Are you Templars!?

[Zender_Solarheart]

Jon looks over to Dan, an eyebrow cocked and a smirk of amusement on his face, then replies: "Buddy, if you need to ask that, then you must not know me very well. Remember that old news story, about the Ultragian Vikings' base getting blown up? Guess who rigged that one?" He then points a thumb up at his face, to provide an answer to that rhetorical question. It's a declassified news topic, after all, and while he doesn't normally brag about past achievements, he figures that one will help illustrate his point. Besides, nobody said that an Admiral can't have a bit of fun, right?

"Well, you lead the way, Mr. Point-man Dan. You know our location better than I do, after all." Jon remarks, having just devised that little nickname for him. Hey, if Dan gets to call him "Admirell Edgy," turnabout's fair play.

[Reaver]

Emile watches the assassin carefully. From he body figure, obviously a woman probably around 17-19 in age. Tense muscles so maybe trained and skilled. Her blade looked sharp but nothing he couldn't handle being a pro himself in CQC. Knowing she could probably cross the room before he could put a bullet in her he puts his uzi away and pulls his long knife out. "Templars? Not even close, I'm a human mercenary here to collect the bounty on your head for the death of several diplomats. Also as you can see the shuttle is dead in the water and my AI has commands to blow this ship up if me or my partner's bio readings cease. So just surrender and take the kneeling position and we can discuss this on my ship in private and maybe work a price out." he gives her a reassuring grin while holding his knife out, ready if she makes a move.

[Angel_Slayer_Alcatraz]

"Several? I only killed one! and he was a Templar!" she said, sounded honest

[Reapergod36]

Ravier began to eat his soup. Being an outcast he didn't have much faith in the gods.

[Reaver]

Emile whips his blade through the air cutting the air with a audible sound. "Enough talk, you either surrender or you die here." He growls feeling the bloodlust of battle come over him. He points the tip of his blade at her while slowly walking towards her, ready to parry if she tries anything. "MAKE YOUR CHOICE" He yells wanting to fight but also trying to stay calm for Susan.

[Angel_Slayer_Alcatraz]

"If you listen to me for 5 fucking seconds I will explain!"
She growls from under her hood

[Reaver]

Emile roars now completely running full speed ahead "Fuck that im collecting your bounty" His knife is brandished and ready to cut some bitch assassin down.
(now we wait for lady fox's next post to set the fight up)

[Gorbaz]

Julius grumbled to himself as he forced the Apis furthur down into the planet's atmosphere in chase of the escape pod. The annoying cloud cover meaning that he was having to rely on his sensors alot more than he would have liked to avoid slamming into anything. On the plus side, however, he wasn't getting chased anymore...

@Napsii, In the planet Azuli Terra; The Monte-Vieul Cathedral.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Chedraou let out a chuckle, nodding when she mentioned that the stone was well-aged.. In fact, the architecture was quite impressive, the design of the building not looking human-made at all.. Nonetheless, it was a Cathedral..

''Oh? Well then, Jessie must have a very clear sight for bringing you both here. This Cathedral, is the site where most of my people visit or other species come too. We welcome all and offer blessings to the needed.'' He said with a grim smile, something in his black-filled eyes.. Just seeming to 'enter' Josephine's soul.

Jessie was standing behind Josephine, not entirely that close to her due to the 'offer the Goddess some space' rule she had thought up after several.. Unwanted accidents. She was looking around in awe, not paying any attention to Chedraou.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Tu'Vak on his own wouldn't be able to pull the jammed doors open.. Not without getting exhausted or forcing his natural strength.. Maybe even getting hurt in the process.. When Claire ran over there to help him, a couple of sparks began to leak from a hanging cable nearby.. Reminding them that staying here any further would be fatal..

But with the strength of the two combined.. Would they be able to open the door?.. The answer would be when Claire counts up to three, hopefully the two will pull as hard as they can..

The flames and smoke around not getting any 'better'..

@Rooiehan, In the planet Azuli Terra; On the rooftops of the Hotel opposite of the Marquis.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Time went fast for others, but for a sniper it wasn't.. Yuuko's careful aim, her slow squeeze on the trigger.. The scope's reticule aiming at the fat guy's head..

Anthony glanced at her direction, shortly before a bullet smoothly slammed into the fat bastard's skull.. Blood spraying on the balcony; none near Anthony.. The man falling face-first as the woman now flirting with the bodyguard let out a loud scream.. Anthony 'pretended' to be shocked to 'death' as well, crying out as he held the now dead, fat guy's chest as he showed no signs of life.. The bodyguard going over and pushing Anthony out of the way, checking on the wounds..

Anthony took that chance to start his way out of there, beginning to move through the startled crowds.. If Yuuko would keep aiming toward them, she'd notice two men dressed in black cloth following after him.. Keeping their distance, but nonetheless seeming to engage in a silent pursuit..

The target was dead. True. But Anthony would be in trouble, REAL trouble really soon..

@Zender, In the planet Verol; Dan's Hideout.

Dan shrugged when Jon mentioned the Ultragian Viking's base event at first.. But then he quickly raised both eyebrows and let a quiet whistle..

''Dayum, that's impressive there Admirell Edgy.. Hmm, talk 'bout stuff..'' He said with a grin while Jon revealed his new nickname, Mr. Point-Man.. Chuckling before stepping out of the well-built room..

If Jon followed him, he'd see Dan beginning to punch a wall for some reason.. Eventually getting cracks in it, the material sounding very 'cheap', probably made on purpose as the now large hole in the wall revealed the outside.. The rest of the nearby buildings and the strands of 'laundry' lines hanging across.. The 'top' of tents and whatnot hanging around too..

''Aye, aye then Edgy. I hope you're good at jumping off of buildings, eh? All you have to do is.. Step out and..'' But Dan didn't need to say more, already falling the tremendous way down.. Smirking to himself as he did so.

Saeko quietly ate her soup, glancing at Ravier half-way when she was done before finishing on chewing a small piece of cooked and nicely cut chicken..

''You don't pray, then who do you thank your food to?'' She asked curiously, but mostly a bit bothered by the fact that he didn't pray before eating.. Something telling her that either he disrespected their people's Gods, or that he had his own reasons.

Indeed, nothing but the surrounding clouds were above him.. Although the planet was now having a global thunderstorm, nowadays those natural events didn't even bother anything really.. Unless the planet had any lack of technology of course, or low-level tech..

The escape pod began to give out a distress signal, seeming to have landed on top of a mountain.. Maybe on a large edge or something, huh?.. .. ...

~Let's do this!

The engine room had enough space for them to brawl and maneuver around, although they wouldn't be fighting in a large school gym-like space though..

Haze would feel that inevitable pounding in her ears as the man began to run- No, charge at head while his large combat knife; dangerous and deadly was held with one of his hands.. Giving her the impression that she was going to get slaughtered into pieces if she didn't move.. Or stabbed, but who would want to find out if they were in her place?.. After all, she was just standing there..

Emile field of vision, locked onto Haze would allow him his combat and reaction skills to function smoothly.. If not dangerously, because the girl assassin was almost standing there..

This didn't seem like the start of a nice conversation, a tough battle about to begin.. Quick or slow.. Tough or easy.. Brutal or merciful.. Things just got seriously serious. Indeed..

Battle Stats!

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Emile: 100%, Charging at Haze.
Haze: 100% Currently standing there.
Susan: 100% Staying near the doors, away from the actual action.. Not appearing to be a threat really.

[Angel_Slayer_Alcatraz]

Haze throws her last smoke bomb down and manoeuvres around him pulling out her sword to try and cripple him, she didn't want to kill someone that wasn't a templar, she continued to watch the girl with the pistol out of the corner of her eye.
"Your Blood lust shall be your un-doing!" she growled as she swung with precision

[thealchemist]

Tu'Vak coughed violently as smoke filled his lungs. "Alright (cough) on three. One two three!" He shouted, pulling on the door
