[SRP] Black Sun

[Brnin8r]

Bendak noticed how quickly the wound had healed and was surprised to see the blue-skinned alien still alive and breathing. He knew he'd have to be careful with this one, her regenerative rate was more than enough reason to keep his barrel aimed squarely at her heart. A brief thought of worry flashed across his mind, as he was unsure of their anatomy...maybe they didn't have a heart. But now wasn't the time to find out...he'd just have to hope. "I can't wait for you to wake up. I bet you'll have a lot of things to say after I get done with you." he said smugly.

[Knight Errant]

Hawkins pulls Razor from the pod, slapping her face lightly. "Wake up... thats an order." After a few moments he sighs and hefts her over his shoulder. Razor wasnt looking too good... besides not waking up, she had quite large patches of the same blue skin as Claudia.

Hawkins carries her over to the other two. "We move... now."

Paula would see the blue spots were patches of skin! Smooth, hairless patches of skin. There was a ring of redness around them as well, Claudia's 'real' skin seeming to react poorly to the new addition...

There is a rustle and a murmering about them, as more of the aliens begin appearing. Hawkins stares with a frown. "Move!" He says, before running back the way they came.

Meanwhile, back at cent. ops.

Bright glares at Stryker. "Didnt I give you an order? See to it you follow that. NOW!"

Meanwhile, Chris finds his descent just as annoyingly choked with debris as the ascent. Carrying equipment past the 'barricade' will prove annoying, no doubt. When he finally gets to the dropship, he finds it abandoned...

As if the alien had been listening, she stirs slightly and opens her eyes, looking up at Bendack, then the rifle pointed at her.

[Evra]

chris looks around the dropship for a moment before reporting in "uhm sir the dropships abandoned at the moment" he says as he starts typing and trying to get ahole of a321 and the hyperion

[Harri-chan]

Claudia shoved Paula back, her energy slowly returning. Her eyes did widen as she heard the rustle behind them and turned to see the blue-skinned women appeared around them. Darting forward, she dropped into a slide across the floor, grabbing her rifle up in her hands before rising to her feet in one movement, although she did stagger when rising, still a little groggy, but she ran after Hawkins, quite happy to retreat.

[Haylie]

Paula drops a grenade in front of the door as they run out, hoping the aliens would run into the blast radius and go out with a bang, shouts, "Grenade!" then runs at a diagonal away from the door to avoid the blast herself.

[Knight Errant]

Bright answers Chris over the radio. "Great... well we will worry about that after securing the base." Meanwhile, he manages to establish an uplink with the Hyperion! And with its relay dishes, he puts a call through to the base. The image of a man soon appears on screen. "This is outpost A321, what is the nature of your call?"

Hawkins dashes into the service tunnel, moving remarkably quickly for carrying an unconscious woman. Meanwhile, the grenade explodes! Driving the aliens back! But as soon as the smoke clears, they press on!

Claudia would find the grogginess slowly leaving her... but her neck continues stinging, and soon she feels warm, like she is breaking out in a fever. As if she didnt have enough to deal with...

[Harri-chan]

Claudia's brown curls swept back and forth across the sore spots on her neck, irritating the skin even further. She pushed herself forward, as fast as she could, but knew something was wrong when the heat started to spread through her. She could feet the sweat breaking out on her skin, her face flushed red, and she knew she was too fit to get this worked up from a run. Sucking in a deep breath, she took one hand of the rifle, dragging her forearm across her face, "I don't feel so good... ".

[Haylie]

Paula slowed down a bit as she turned to take a few potshots at the blue aliens, making sure to stay between them and Claudia. "Just keep running! We'll get out of here!"

She added under her breath, "Somehow..."

[Evra]

chris looks at the image of the man "yes we need backup we came to see what happened to the colonists and well ... all the colonists are gone and there are these strange aliens in the colony we have one captured but we dont know how many more there are or whats going on " chris says to the figure looking around gun at the ready

[Knight Errant]

Once they are all in the tunnel, Hawkins turns and throws something down behind them. "Run... faster." Paula and perhaps Claudia would recognize the device as a very powerful thermal grenade... able to turn large areas into molten slag. Hawkins dashes up the tunnel, Razor on shoulder.

((being a lieutenant means you get all the best toys ^^))

Claudia continues burning up... and oddly, her clothing feels a bit looser than before. Which makes running all the more troubling.

Meanwhile, the man blinks. "Aliens? You have made contact with aliens?"

[Harri-chan]

Claudia was usually so alert and on the ball, so she knew something had to be wrong because she couldn't concentrate at all on the weaponry around her. The hulking metallic bodysuit of armour was getting heavier, her running getting more awkward, "We gotta stop... ", she panted, her face bright red from the heat of the fever, and coated in sweat, which was seeping into her dark brown curls of hair too as she staggered along after Paula and Hawkins. "I think I'm gonna be sick... ", she groaned, her feet and legs feeling numb, clutching her rifle to her armoured chest.

[Haylie]

Paula seem to be running low on breath herself, but she manages to keep her speed up. "Don't... stop, you idiot! You'll be... blown to smithereens... by that thermal!"

[Evra]

yes sir" he says as he looks around "and they arent the easiest to kill im not sure where half our team is and i was sent by the other half so technically im not positive on where they are"

[Knight Errant]

There is a brief inrush of air, tugging them backwords... then a brilliant light and a tremendous heat. Claudia, being in the back, gets the worst of it and is thrown forward, her armor smoking. Paula would feel as if she had been hit with a hammer of heat, as the air smells of burnt hair from the back of her head. Hawkins ducks jst before the explosion goes off, shielding Razor with his body. If he feels uncomfortable or burned, he dosent show it on his face, which is the same impassable neutral as before. He looks back at the two. "They wont be following us... are you alright?"

The man nods to Chris.Very well... have you established communications with the colony leader? Where is your superior officer?"

[Harri-chan]

Claudia started to turn her head when the bright let filled the tunnel, only to be blown forward by the blast. Grasping her gun so tightly, she accidentally squeezed the trigger, sending a spray of bullets which ricocheted off the metallic walls of the tunnel before she landed on her chest, the metallic bodysuit of heavy armour sparking as the material ground across the tunnel's floor. She came to a stop, face down, panting for breath, one hand still clinging to her battle rifle. Her throat bulged as she swallowed a deep breath, her face slick with sweat as she tried crawling forward...
