Keep headed Northwards. Stay alert, keep guns at ready positions. We don't know what might be down here.

"Guns up, lights on. Follow me and stay alert. We have no idea what might be down here." you say, and motion for your men to follow you. You slowly walk into the tunnel going northward. Your comms aren't functioning anymore, all you hear is static. "You guys' comms working?" you ask.

"Negative."

"Nope."

"Roger." you say. "Keep your eyes open." You continue walking slowly through the cave, listening. All you can hear are your group's footsteps and static. Then you hear something else. "Stop, now." you whisper. Sandro and Rikel stop, but you continue to hear the footsteps. Not really footsteps, but a skittering noise, getting louder and louder, coming from inside of the wall.

[UristMcWanderer]

One person should shoot lefty to cover the right wall. If our laser rifles have full-auto (or whatever equivalent), now might be a good time to switch to that.

+1 If it's coming from inside the wall we should do our best to stay away from them.

Do we have any CQB weapons like knives, bayonets, pistols or the like?

[bsnott]

You have each member of your team cover the sides of the walls. You take a step back, to cover either side. You wait in horror as the sound grows louder and louder, closer and closer. You hear a wall burst open somewhere in the trench, a few gunshots, and a scream. Suddenly, something shoots out of the right wall. A sharp arm-like blade bursts through Rikel's stomach, and his eyes open wide. He drops his gun and screams, and the blade cuts upwards through his head. His body drops, partially sliced in half.

"Fucking run!" you shout to Sandro, grabbing him by the shoulder. You sprint as fast as you can through the trench, staying just ahead of the arm blades that shoot from the walls. Eventually you can barely see where you are going. You close your eyes and run faster. You hear some kind of shouting, extra footsteps. You look over, mid-sprint, to see three Reyvajik soldiers pointing their weapons at you. Just as you turn to keep running, an arm slices horizontally across their line, cutting each of them in half. You close your eyes and run faster. With the one last burst of speed you feel yourself falling. You roll down the cliffside, and land with your weapon at your side. Sandro rolls down and lands next to you. You're out of the trench.

"What the he'll was that?! Do we keep running?

An where are we?"

[bsnott]

"What the hell was that?" you yell, not to any particular person. "Do we keep running? Where are we?"

"I have no idea." Sandro mutters. You hear your comms come back to life.

"Nakano? Rikel? Sandro? Is anyone there? We heard gunfire." you hear Jives say over the radio.

((Arm blades sprouting from walls. What are we even playing anymore.))

Rikel's dead, but the rest of us are okay. Where do we go next Jives? I need some guidance here.

[bsnott]

((It's a colonial planet, there are other lifeforms on it. Also, comeback time against because lacrosse season is over.))

"Rikel's dead, but the rest of us are okay. Where do we go next Jives? I need some guidance here."

"We're camped out in a greenhouse in an abandoned town. We haven't scouted out the rest of the town yet, so be careful on your way over." he replies.

You take out your map, and lead Sandro in the direction of the nearest town. As you overlook the town from the crest of a hill, you see the greenhouse that Jives was talking about. Inside you can see Jives, Lepred, Collins, Emuel, and Davis inside with him. They are in a defensive posture, and you radio to Jives so that he knows it's you on top of the hill. "Let's go, Sandro." you say. You slowly make your descent down the steep hill, and just as you reach the bottom you receive a faint signal on your comms.

"Attention all units, drop site #2 is now labelled on your maps." the radio buzzes, "If you're already on the ground, gather up anyone else and hit the designated defensive positions on your maps to make the drop easier. Command out." As you walk into the greenhouse you take out your map. The drop site isn't too far from the town you are in, and there is an artillery position that needs to be taken out just on the other side of the town. Jives calls out to you as you walk into the greenhouse.

"If they've got a defensive position in this town, they've gotta have patrols going around. We need to move on that position, and fast. We can either storm it or try to take it stealthily, your choice." he says.

[Parsely]

We'll do both. Quietly get into position, ambush them and then storm the position.

[bsnott]

"We'll do both. Let's get into assaulting positions quietly and take the position by storm." you say. "I'll take Sandro and Davis. We'll take the southern portion. You take everyone else and hit 'em from the North."

Based on the map, the position that you're looking for is a group of buildings on a hill overlooking the position. You take Sandro and Davis, and walk out of the greenhouse, following the map down a road. You pass by abandoned homes and schools, and even a park or two. You wonder how long it took to evacuate this town, and the planet in general. It isn't long before you hear voices ahead. You duck into an open building take cover next to a window. The patrol walks into sight, about six men. They all look like standard Reyvajik infantry.

[Parsely]

Signal Sandro to frag them. The moment after the grenade explodes, open fire. Assuming they're all dead, we quickly advance past them towards the arty position.

[bsnott]

"Sandro, whip a grenade." you order over comms. As soon as you give the command, a grenade goes flying from behind you, right at the feet of the enemy soldiers. They all look to the ground and back up, but it is too late. Three of them are decimated by the grenade, and the other three are thrown to the ground. Your squad opens fire and quickly mops up the survivors of the blast.

"Let's keep moving, Nak. They'll have heard that." Sandro says. You get out of the building and lead your team into back of the building, putting you right in the middle of the town square. Just as you walk out into the square, an enemy infantry fighting vehicle rolls out into view. You dive into cover with your squad as the laser turret starts tearing into your previous location. You can see enemy infantry storming out of the vehicle.
