M1T6

Post by maxvale76 » Tue May 25, 2010 9:31 pm

April 2, 2180; Secret Bio-Cyte/Insurrectionist Lab, Daedalus City, Planet Icarus

<Deployed Marines>The thick smoke from the Smoke grenades is slowly dissipating from the room as the nine marines and one civilian move about thier tasks in quiet effiency. SSGT Simovic gathers up the weapons from the two fallen Insurrectionist guards and then moves his first squad into positions to protect the entryway.*

While this is happening; PVT O'brien manages to successfully use his Electronic Bypass tool and his skills in electronics to open the armored door. SGT Kurosaki's second squad and CAPT Ramirez's command team are in position with weapons aimed, covering the doorway. Though everyone is tensed and ready for action; there is nothing but an empty hallway revealed by the now opened door. Ramirez is about to signal everyone to start moving forward when PVT Shepard's voice comes through everyone's headset comm. The voice is quiet and static-filled; but the message gets through; PVT Alexander may be KIA from a shotgun blast. Ramirez's face goes into an angry scowl and his voice has a slight tremor of anger and sadness in it as he replies; "Understood SG3 Alpha. Confirm SG 3 Bravo's status and then get into position to provide overwatch of the entrance. Stay frosty, marine; we're counting on you." With a deep sigh, Ramirez uses hand signals to get everyone ready to go into the hallway. He talks in a quiet voice to Khan and the members of Second Squad. "Okay; remember the mission...we're here to grab the scientists, thier research and any alien eggs. Anybody or anything else we run into...neutralize. Understood?" Khan and the marines nod in affirmation. "Allright then; we move fast and quiet....let's go." With that, he lifts his Pulse Rifle up and in front of him and moves into the hallway with Indira Khan right behind him...

*The weapons are a SMG and a M41 Pulse Rifle...both USCM issue with serial numbers filed off. The Pulse Rifle has no grenades in the launcher and the ammo clips are filled with standard; non-LAPET ammunition.

While this is happening; CPL O'Brien manages to successfully use his Electronic Bypass tool and his skills in electronics to open the armored door.
Following the breech, Obi entered with his Pulse rifle in his shoulder ready to fire. Pushing ahead through the smoke and debris, he saw that the passageway was blocked by a sealed heavy duty door. Moving quickly Obi slung his rifle and opened a webbing pouch that contained his Bypass Kit. Moving up the door control panel he quickly opened it up and studied it quickly. Connecting the Bypass kit to the exposed controls Obi tapped a few commands on the kit and waited as the kit performed an over ride on the door. Patiently waiting for all the telltales to turn green, finally hitting one last command, the locks snapped open and the door opened up.

"Doors open, we're in." Obi called out as he placed the Bypass Kit back it is webbing pouch and unslung his Pulse Rifle.

After the firefight Simovic checked the insurrectionists weapons he removed a magazine from the Pulse Rile one had been carrying and took the rest of it's magazines from the corpse and distributed them between the platoon. The other weapon an SMG he propped against a wall, in case anyone needed it later.

"Good job O'Brien. 1st Squad form a defensive perimeter. Each man take a different exit and cover it. Quinn can you go and check on Alexander, see if there's anything you can do for him and take my Motion Tracker just in case".

<Tag 1st Squad>

Simovic unslung his motion tracker and handed it to the Medic he then directed O'Brien and Brown to watch the front and back entrances of the building while he moved up to guard the now open armored door. He watched with baited breath as 2nd squad moved into the hallway.

<Deployed Marines>

Ramirez pats O'brien on the shoulder after he has opened the doors and there is no immediate threat revealed on the opposite side. "Good work marine", the Captain says and then waves forward Khan and 2nd Squad.

Khan takes the lead, her face alert and grim, SMG held at the ready. Ramirez is opposite her, his M41 leading the way. SGT Kurosaki deploys his marines behind him and the six of them move down the hall towards the stairwell leading down to the sub-levels below ground where the Corporate insider reported the labs as being located...

Simovic deploys the men of 1st Squad and send CPL Quinn across the street, towards the building where Alexander and Shepard are located and out of the corner of his eye, above him, he sees movement along the roof of a building opposite from both the secret lab and the shot-up building the support team is located. He's not entirely sure, but if looked as if a couple of figures on the roof were moving away from where the marines are located and towards the APC...

Quinn watched the two contacts move, and brought up his radio.

"APC, Sierra-Golf One. Be advised, two possible tangos approaching your position on foot via rooftop, over." Quinn told them.

Morse stayed at the rear of the small group moving through the hallways of the research facility. He walked backwards, as he had gotten much practice in doing, and scanned for any targets which may attempt to sneak up behind them.

Unlike many of the marines in the group, he kept his weapon at the hip, where he could fire more accurately then he could shouldering the large support weapon. Of course if he had the option he'd mount it onto something, but while on the move that just wasn't the case.

He chose not to say anything, fearing chatter might give a way their position, as if the firing hadn't already, but silence sometimes was golden. He stayed close to the group, waiting for his squad to find where it was going.

<Support Team; a.k.a. PVT Shepard>

*Shepard had knelt down and had his Pulse Rifle raised to his shoulder and was aiming down the barrel, using the iron sights when the insurrectionist came down the steps and right into this line of fire...

The man reacted quickly, getting his pump-action shotgun halfway to firing position when Shepard squeezed a three round burst into this chest. The explosive tipped rounds tore into him and hurled him back against the stairs and his broken form slid down the steps into a boneless heap**.

Shepard kept the rifle levelled at his fallen opponent for a moment, but it was clear that he wasn't getting back up. Moving up the stairs, he came into the room that Alexander and he had occupied and he quickly saw that his fellow marine was gone. His face was a bloody ruin and his weapon had been dropped on the ground beside him. Apparently, Alexander had heard the man enter the room and turned at the last moment, only to catch a shotgun blast to the face. Shepard felt a moment of sadness and anger mixed together at the sight of his fallen comrade...

Out of one of the shell holes on the opposite wall, Shepard made out what looked like a pair of men carrying pipe tubes running along a building roof. Intrigued, he looked closer and realized he was looking at a pair of insurrectionists carrying rocket launchers and moving towards a position overlooking the APC...

<APC Crew; a.k.a. SGT Pitt and PFC Han>

Pitt got the comms message from Quinn and replied with a quick; "This is Ironsides; Roger that, thanks SG 1 Bravo"; while manuvering the turret and cameras to scan the rooftop in question. Unfortunately, from his position, he couldn't see anything. "Get ready to move this crate Han!", he called out to the Theo in the driver's seat.

Then he got on the comm again; "Ironsides to SG 3, do you have a visual on any tangos on the rooftop opposite your position?"

<Tag Pitt and Shepard>

*bobater; I made what I thought the most logical actions for you; I had Shepard aim and fire and the results were excellent; I hope you don't mind me taking the liberty; but as I said in the PM, I needed your posts by yesterday or I'd finish the scene to move your character's part up to where everyone else is. I hope you don't mind!

**The man is carrying a pump-action shotgun with 7 rounds in the weapon and he has another 24 shells on his person in a couple of pockets.

Maintaining his position, Obi covered the rear entrance with his pulse rifle, safe in the knowledge that Brown was performing the same task and covering the front. Taking a knee, his rifle in his shoulder ready to fire, Obi concentrated on his field of fire while 2nd squad moved in.
Shepard squeezed a three round burst into this chest. The explosive tipped rounds tore into him and hurled him back against the stairs and his broken form slid down the steps into a boneless heap.
The sharp crack from a pulse rifle burst reached his ears, quickly followed by the comm chatter in his headset reporting an enemy soldier had been slotted. Well they know we are here now. Obi thought to himself as he hunkered down even more. "Now the shit really hits the fan." He muttered more to himself than to anyone in particular.

Shepard spoke quickly into the comm "Alexanders down rebels are moving rockets to a postion overlooking the apc." he looked around for a way to get a better spot to fire on the rebels.

Command Team and 2nd Squad

Captain Ramirez and Indira Khan led the four members of 2nd Squad quickly through the building; rapidly descending stairs to the lowest level underground; where Khan's source had reported the xenomorph lab was located. Ramirez knelt down, cracked the door open a little to take a look around and then moved into the hall quietly, followed by Khan.

The door opened into a ten foot wide hallway that ran about twenty feet in one direction before taking a ninety degree turn to the right. Ramirez moved up to the corner and put his back to the wall. He glanced behind him and saw Khan, Kurosaki, Patch, Lionmane and finally Morse move into the hallway. Taking a quick glance around the corner and he pulled back and whispered to Khan. She nodded her head and moved around the corner with her SMG at the ready. Ramirez followed close behind her and then 2nd squad followed.

The hallway ran a good hundred yards straight before ending in a T intersection and there was two other intersections with halls running perpendicular to the hall they were all in. No one was currently occupying the long hallway; but there were many doors spaced all along the hall, on both sides. The door they wanted was past the first intersection, on the right. Khan led the way, followed quietly and slowly by the Captain and 2nd Squad...

<Tag 2nd Squad>

Support Team; i.e. Shepard and now Quinn

CPL Quinn entered the building and called out to let Shepard know he was on his way up. Along the way, he saw the two bodies of insurrectionists that had been shot up by 10mm Pulse Rifle fire. In the highest room, Shepard had moved over to the shell hole which allowed a shot at the two rocket-wielding rebels aiming thier weapons at the APC. He could tell the shot would be quite tricky as the shell hole wasn't that big and he immediately wished that he had a scope on his weapon. As he watched, one of the insurrectionists fired off a rocket and with a whoose of backblast, a missiles sped downwards towards the street...

<Tag bobater and Quinn>

1st Squad

Simovic deployed his men and O'brien and Brown reported that they had secured positions to fire on anyone attempting to enter the facility. The occasional rumble of artillery or heavy machine gun and cannon fire could be heard from the battle taking place outside. Suddenly, Simovic caught an IR outline on his eyepiece and he immediately pointed his weapon at the target and placed his finger on the trigger. The target moved very low to the ground and strangely and Simovic realized after a moment that he was aiming his weapon at a stray cat...

"Ironsides, INCOMING!" Quinn bellowed into the radio, and immediately let loose a blast of full automatic fire at the two across the rooftop. He didn't expect it to hit either of them, but they would duck and not be able to take another shot. It was a medium burst of five shots, followed by another burst of five shots.

"Shepard, low on your ten, parapet ten meters above the burnt out sign!"

And who knew, he might hit them. "Every Marine, a Rifleman."

"Got it!" Shepard shouted back.

He remembered Alexanders' sniper rifle and yelled to Quinn "Keep them down im going to the sniper rifle!" He started to run to the rifle and back

"Copy!" Quinn yelled, and kept up the fusillade of ten millimeter fire. The weapon would have hammered in his ears were it not for the fancy earplugs he'd put in them. No sir, he valued his hearing. What was left of it...

The weapon bucked in his hands, but he kept the stock tight to his shoulder, right in that little pocket all shooters know of.

"Hard contact!" Quinn let off into the squad radio.

APC Crew; i.e. SGT Pitt and PFC Han

Dirk heard Quinn's message over the comm and yelled for Theo to move the vehicle quickly. Han threw the APC into a hard turn and gunned the engine as the rocket whoosed down from the rooftops and exploded in the patch of ground where the APC had been a moment before. Sounds like rain could briefly be heard as shrapnel and fragments of concrete from the road tinked against the vehicle's armored hide...

Support Team; i.e. Shepard and now Quinn

CPL Quinn opened up on the rocket-wielding insurrectionists and though he missed by a country mile; the long burst of 10mm fire caused the two men to drop to the rooftop and momentarily forget thier vehicular quarry on the street below. Looking over to where the fire was coming from; one raised what appeared to be a hunting rifle and started sighting in on Quinn's position, while the other began to reload the rocket launcher...

Meanwhile, Shepard went back and retrieved Alexander's scoped rifle and as he did so, he noticed a crowd of about a dozen rebels, moving quickly towards the Biocyte facility and 1st Squad's location...

<Tag Quinn and Shepard>

Command Team and 2nd Squad

Ramirez and Khan led Kurosaki and of 2nd Squad past the first intersection of hallways and soon, the group had spread out into single file formation, with Khan in the lead; followed by Ramirez, Kurosaki, Patch, Lionmane and Morse bringing up the rear. Khan then stopped next to a door and signaled that this was the one that led into the improvised lab complex where the xenomorph eggs and scientists were located. At that moment, a quiet tone began sounding from Patch’s motion detector. The noise began to get louder and the marine corpsman looked at the sensor and called out; “Two groups coming at from both directions…moving quickly; about half a dozen in each group!” The marines looked both ways and realized that the contacts were approaching from both of the intersections. Noises could now clearly be heard; the sound of armed people moving quickly towards their position…

<Tag 2nd Squad>

1st Squad

Simovic let out a breath of relief and pulled his Pulse Rifle’s muzzle away from the stray cat he had briefly thought might be an enemy. No sooner had he relaxed for a moment than his motion tracker began to make its high pitch whine, indicating that something was moving nearby. Taking a closer look at the tracker; he saw that it indicated that about a dozen people were moving towards his position from about forty meters away in the direction of the breached wall they had entered the compound from. Yelling out to O’brien and Brown; Simovic told them to prepare for some company as he aimed his weapon in the direction of their approach and took some cover…

"Roger Staff, I'm on it." Obi responded calmly as he shifted to a better fire position overlooking the breach in the compound wall. Obi looked down the sights of his pulse rifle, heart beat steady as the Staff called out the range on his motion tracker. Come on you bastards, shoot at my friends will you. Well I got old painless waiting right here.. Obi directed his thoughts towards the enemy as the contacts grew ever closer on the tracker...
