[SRP] Black Sun

Stryker starts smashing doors open. "Damn, why are there so many doors locked?! It looks like they were hiding or something..."

[Evra]

Chris follows behind them smg at ready due to it being close quarters it seeming eerily quiet and iwth all the makeshift barricades and locked doors something was most deffinatley not right, Chris continues walking down the hallway lower his gun slightly looking for any signs of a struggle or fight bloof weapons bullet casings something"

[Haylie]

Despite the threats of the two armed soldiers, Claudia didn't look too worried, although she looked far from please as she felt the warm saliva splash onto her face amongst the cold raindrops when Paula snarled inches from her face. She glared at the pair of them as they each aimed their weapons at her, "You'd have a lot of explaining to do back home if you killed me... that's not how you boys and girls work, is it?", she muttered, although seemed annoyed more than amused now as she turned, and trudged up the ramp, into the dropship, wet brown curls flicking across the battered metal body armour.

Paula makes a point of aiming her pistol at Claudia's back as she enters the dropship, though she doubted the brunette do anything. "Explaining why I wasted a round, sure. Not for killing a merc. They don't need to know that part. Sit."

She points at one of the shuttle's seats, one set across from an identical one, both facing each other, keeping the white pistol aimed at Claudia's heart, water dripping from the base of the handle and Paula's hand. "You won't speak until spoken to, and when spoken to, you'll only speak in context with the question. Speak out of turn, and I'll see how close a shave I can give you with this gun. Have I made myself perfectly clear, merc?" Her voice is decidedly all-business, never breaking an octave nor sounding particularly angry, but the fire in her eyes says she's anything but cooled off.

In the dropship, Razor looks over his shoulder at Claudia and Paula. "Find a new friend, did you?"

"Not in the mood, Razor."

[Harri-chan]

Claudia was glad to be out of the rain, although you wouldn't know it had bothered her from how she'd conducted herself so far. At the command to sit, she paused, and then turned slowly, tilting her head to one side. "You're the one that does as she's told around here... not me". She was silent as Paula told her too be quiet, glaring into the other girl's eyes, waiting for her to finish, and then flashed a smirk at her, one hand darting out, trying to knock Paula's arm enough to stop the other girl from shooting at her, before attempting to spin around and launch a kick with her heavy boot, right into the girl's chest...

[Haylie]

Paula's reaction is instantaneous, and precise enough to be considered rehearsed: She drops the gun on her own, grabs Claudia's foot with both hands while moving to the side to dodge the kick, steps on her other foot, pulls on the leg she's holding to remove Claudia's balance, then pins her to the shuttle's floor with her knee on Claudia's collar, and holding her leg up in a WWF-style pin. She's not gentle about it, either. The gun is, sadly, far out of either girls' reach, sliding to a stop next to Razor.

"I've snapped the necks of jackasses bigger, faster, and smarter than you, and I'm pissed enough as it is! You do NOT want me as an enemy! SETTLE THE HELL DOWN!"

[Harri-chan]

Claudia snarled as she felt her foot caught, and then has her leg pulled, flipping her around in the air before she crashes down onto her back with the thud of metal against metal, her armour grinding against the floor of the dropship as Paula drives a knee into her throat and then forces her leg up. She struggled for a moment before meeting the other girl's gaze again, "You're mine, Paula, I've just got to wait for you slip up... which you will... ".

[Brnin8r]

Bendak walked stoically with the rest of the team, "What do you reckon, Sir? Defending against pirates...or maybe a colonial uprising?" he handed out his suggestions as he continued down the hall, trying to imagine and predict what might have happened in just the first hallway. If this was the lighter side of the conflict, he expected a crater in the middle of the colony.

[Knight Errant]

Bright: "Keep it tight, people... turn on your motion trackers and check your targets, we are looking for civvies in here." To Bendak. "Neither is likely. Pirates would leave bodies where they fell, and would use higher caliber weapons. All that has been fired here are low velocity handguns issued to colonial security forces and colonists. With an uprising they would clear the space afterwords... and most likely would not respond to our hails. But where are they? We would have seen some sign of life."

Indeed, there are spent shell casings, bullet holes... but no blood and no bodies. Just a strange blue- like substance smeared here and there.

Blade sweeps his motion tracker around, putting himself in the middle of the group. "I got nothing..."

Meanwhile, back at the drop ship Razor shrugs. "You girls really need to cool it. Besides, if you should get one over on Paladin, there is always me. And I'm afraid I dont know any kung-fu moves... I just shoot people." Razor chuckles, chambering a round in her side arm. "So how about we be all nice and civil. I can put on some music if you want."

Behind Razor, as she faces the two women, a shadowy figure runs across the rooftops... before jumping down into the spaceport area, out of sight because of the angle of the cockpit windshield.

Claudia snarled as she felt her foot caught, and then has her leg pulled, flipping her around in the air before she crashes down onto her back with the thud of metal against metal, her armour grinding against the floor of the dropship as Paula drives a knee into her throat and then forces her leg up. She struggled for a moment before meeting the other girl's gaze again, "You're mine, Paula, I've just got to wait for you slip up... which you will... ".

"I doubt it. I have years of actual military training. You have shiny armor and guns, and that's it. But keep trying, it keeps me sharp." This last part is said with a ruthless smile.

Meanwhile, back at the drop ship Razor shrugs. "You girls really need to cool it. Besides, if you should get one over on Paladin, there is always me. And I'm afraid I dont know any kung-fu moves...

Behind Razor, as she faces the two women, a shadowy figure runs across the rooftops... before jumping down into the spaceport area, out of sight because of the angle of the cockpit windshield.

Releasing Claudia rather roughly, Paladin walks over to collect her own pistol from next to Razor's chair.
"Only if you have that pop music I like. And no--"

She cuts herself off when her headset begins beeping and she sees the dark... thing through the windshield. "What the...?" She's still half-facing Claudia, but focused outside.

[Harri-chan]

Claudia missed the figure jump down from the rooftops as she was dragging herself up off the floor. Her narrowed brown eyes watched Paladin as she picked up the pistol, and then she made a motion with her hand, pressing two fingers together and cocking her thumb like a pistol, soundlessly mouthing the 'boom' as she jerked her hand back, as if the gun had been fired. She began to grin, but it faded when she saw the suprise on Paula's face, and followed her gaze to the outside. "Huh?".

[Knight Errant]

Razor blinks at Paula's confusion. "Huh what?" But turns around as she hears a thump. Standing on the windshield of the cockpit is what looks like a blue skinned woman. She smiles.

Razor: "What... the heck?"

The woman tilts her head, then draws back a fist, punching forwards... the windshield shatters into a million pieces, there is a scream from Razor... a blurring of what looks like blue ropes, and then the woman is gone... along with Razor.

[Evra]

chris turns looking behind the group to stop any ... unwanted sneak attacks" as he looks around thinking as he kneels down and examines the blue stuff as he looks up "this stuff seems like blood but ... its obviously not human" he says and stands up

[Brnin8r]

Bendak noticed the blue smears along with Bright. "What the hell Sir?" he asked as he approached one of the stains on the wall. "This might be...a soluble explosive...like C4 you think?" he asked quizzically. "Maybe it just didn't ignite when the rest did. He knew it was a hole-filled theory. No one would smear anything like C4 so haphazardly. "I mean...no one bleeds blue." he commented offhandedly.

[Knight Errant]

Bright frowns. "Nobody touch nothin... we got a mystery here... and if its one thing you will learn to hate as a marine, its mysteries. Keep moving to Central Operations."

He heads up a half choked staircase with a barricade that looks like it was... torn apart.

"Cent Ops is right up this and down the hallway according to blueprints." Says Blade.

[Haylie]

Razor blinks at Paula's confusion. "Huh what?" But turns around as she hears a thump. Standing on the windshield of the cockpit is what looks like a blue skinned woman. She smiles.

Razor: "What... the heck?"

The woman tilts her head, then draws back a fist, punching forwards... the windshield shatters into a million pieces, there is a scream from Razor... a blurring of what looks like blue ropes, and then the woman is gone... along with Razor.

Paula instictively raises her hands to keep the flying glass out of her eyes, so she didn't see Razor disappear with the blue lady. She did manage to get a good look at the blue being in question, and as soon as she can, she leaps out of the shuttle's shattered windshield onto the wet ground and begins looking around with her pistol. Water flies off her pony tail as her read whips around in every direction, looking for the pilot.

"Damn! RAZOR! Sound off!" She also tries her radio. "Razor! Do you read?! Answer me!"
