SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Bauer watched the female soldier as she made her rounds..... He gripped his Magnum and bought it out and began tinkering with it,cleaning it, anything to get his mind off of recent events.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helljumper425 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Soto continued walking, hoping that the AI didn't have the luxury of base-wide projection capabilities. She didn't have anything against AIs in general, but she knew how to listen to gut feelings over non-officer commands. "I figured I'd take first watch," she said, glancing once over her shoulder. As she did, she noticed another presence, male definitely, possibly a Spartan based on physique. She dismissed it. "It couldn't hurt," she said, looking forward as she continued onward.

Surveillance Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 "Ah. Well it is good to have volunteers. Forgive me. As you were, Ms." Anton said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Bauer found himself taking his Magnum fully apart and putting it back together..twice... He decided he needed a jog so he climbed over the rail and slid down the wall, which, while unorthodox, was much quicker then going down the stairs. He began jogging the perimeter at a fairly good pace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surveillance Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Before Anton went back into the system he noticed something. "Soto, Bauer, you had better check this out." The flood slowly roamed towards the base at an alarming number. "Get everyone up." Anton said. "We need to destroy this flood invasion."

SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Bauer responded quickly and ran towards the front of the base. When he arrived he saw an alarming number of flood making its way to the base, so he ran to the nearby weapons locker and took out a shotgun. He slipped several slugs into the Shotgun and put the rest in the ammo pouch on his armour. He readied himself and took cover behind a barricade...

Surveillance Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Marines and Spartans rushed out armed to the teeth and began firing on the flood. A combat form jumped up and infected a marine. The disease spread like wildfire. Now 5 soldiers were infected. "Stop the virus!" Anton yelled.

SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Bauer Fired once, twice...killing 2 flood forms that came closer... the Marine to his left was too busy to notice a flood infector form lunge at him Bauer kicked it out of the air and continued to fire at the flood.. Several Marines went down..the only problem was that they stood back up a short time after... Bauer found himself killing the men he was just fighting with...it was horrible, but bauer stood strong and defended the base... "We need backup at the front gate... NOW!!!" Yelled LT Bauer over the comms Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surveillance Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Down below, 3 tanks arrived at the scene. They fired at the catwalk, and the flood died steadily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helljumper425 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Before Soto could even drop a simple, irritated, "Really," she found herself nearly being trampled by a mob of Spartans, ODSTs, Marines and she was pretty sure she even saw a Navy cook rush out, brandishing a spatula. Needless to say, there was a greater task than patrolling at this point. With a deep sigh, she followed the ranks, acquired the nearest targets--a staggering, shambling cluster of infected Sangheili combat forms--and opened fire. Their damaged shield generators couldn't take much damage, so a well-placed burst of armor piercing did most of them in, tearing through their mottled flesh like wet tissue paper. The residual armor was a bit of a challenge however, but thankfully from her research, their central hub of control was the center mass. Suddenly, three tanks arrived on the scene and started shelling the infestation. Soto lowered the still-smoking barrel of her BR55 and slacked her shoulders. "Well so much for that..."

SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Bauer found himself quite cut up, his armour was slashed at, his skin bleeding and his face bruised... He stomped on a barely surviving flood form and made his way back into the base, sitting on an ammo crate catching his breathe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surveillance Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 One blast from the tank actually hit the platform, and it split into two. Those who were on it fell onto the plains 10 feet below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 The battle seemed to slow down. Marines and ODST's just mopping up a few flood forms before burning them with Flame Throwers Bauer looked down at the plains where the Marines fell... "Poor SOB's.... didn't even know what hit them" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard L. Church Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Jacob ran out of the base, holding two SMGs. He started tearing through the flood. He saw three tanks arrive and start shooting in his area, so he went back to cover. He saw the flood being destroyed. He asked Anton... "Where did the infestation came from?"

SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Bauer walked bac kand sat down with the shotgun, and looked at his armour.. Seemed as if the flood had cut through most of the layers, Marine armour wasn't very strong. His under shirt was slightly ripped and he had several cuts and bruises over him, blood seemed to be evident on his armour... "Well crap, this is gonna hurt tomorrow" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helljumper425 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Soto held on to the edge of the platform at the last moment, her gloved fingers fighting to keep her from following the fate of those below. Her rifle dangled by its strap in her other hand, so she tossed ahead of her before pulling herself to her feet, muttering every curse she could think of. She rose just in time to see another ODST's hands scrambling at the deck plates. She grabbed hold, helping the soldier to his...no her, feet. "Thanks," the woman said between breaths. Soto held a thumbs up as she swept up her rifle. "Anytime." With that, she got on comms again. "Which one of you mother f***ing tankers didn't aim your shots accordingly? Do the words 'friendly fire' not mean a damn thing to you?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Bauer heard Soto over the comms.... "Charlie 3-1 shot the slug......saw it all from the front gate" "And if i see you misfire like that again soldier....im going to shove that tanks barrel right up your.....you get the rest" (Talking to Charlie 3-1) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard L. Church Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Jacob saw the fight was over for the time being. He went back to the barracks, but was awake for the rest of the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helljumper425 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 "He's not gonna be so lucky with me," she muttered, turning about, taking a shortcut to the motor pool as the tanks were recalled back inside. She identified Charlie 3-1 and power walked beside his tank, unbeknownst to him as she slung her rifle. The moment he stepped out, she clasped her hands around the collar of his vest and slammed him back first into the treads of his own tank. Without so much as addressing the man's rank, she brought herself visor-to-face with the man. "You undisciplined, stupid f***ing beeb! I've half a mind to beat you within in inch of your life after what you just did!" With a snap of force, the man shoved Ashley back, prying her fingers off his vest. "Stand down, fireball! Be lucky we arrived when we did, or the whole fighting force would've been food right now. I think a thank you would've been more appropriate if you still want to get out of this without an NJP." Soto swore, out loud as she balled her hand into a fist, cocked back and took a swing. The tanker, like a Gunnery Sergeant, was faster than he looked though, sidestepping the strike and grabbing her arm, pulling her in a follow through motion into his tank. Her armor clanked against the titanium plating, and just then she felt his hands seize the back of her helmet and her shoulder, intent on restraining her against the tank. Ashley drove an elbow back into his gut just in time, softening his grip, then loosening entirely as she drove her heel back into his knee. She about-faced and put him in a partial headlock where she was at liberty to knee him in the rib cage. From there, she grabbed his helmet, slamming his head once against the parked Scorpion, letting him rebound back flat onto the cold floor. By that time, a few hands managed to restrain her, not of MPs, but of Marines. "That's enough, trooper!" one shouted as she struggled. "It's over, cut it out!" She finally eased up, relaxing her tensed muscles. She looked around the room, as did the Marines, and noted the number of eyes they had gathered. Without even looking, the man gave the best suggestion she had heard all day. "Get out of here." She didn't utter a word after that, just marched out of the motorpool with her helmet hung at her side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Lt Bauer walked into the Motorpool as Soto was leaving and said to her just before she exited... "Id stay around for about 3 mintues" He walked past and straight to Charlie 3-1.. "Soldier...If i ever see a reckless move like that again, Im going to allow Soto over there have a good 30 minute sparring session with you..... then im going to recommend you be removed from ever handling a tank again....Do i make myself clear?!" The Soldier's all stood to attention quickly. Charlie 3-1 stuttered "Uh, y..y..yes sir" He saluted "Good, at ease and get yourself cleaned up" Bauer walked past Soto saying "Try to keep your temper in check" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helljumper425 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Ashley's hand tightened into a fist again, but this time ready for an chew-out session with the speaker. That quickly died as she watched the man pass by, noting that the one talking was a Spartan, and by title alone implied he could possibly have outranked her by the officer category. She straightened out, exhaling through gritted teeth. She had already floored a Gunny, she didn't need to start up trouble with another superior, much less one that could open a tank with his hands. "Sir..." she said flatly in acknowledgment. Screw that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Bauer turned around, sensing Soto's anger.. "Soto...your not in trouble, i just dont need any Marines getting their faces bashed in today. Especially after what happened" Bauer continued on and sat back down to attend to his wounds....

Helljumper425 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 At that, the Lance Corporal took a breath and relaxed. Giving him a nod, she put it all behind her. It was a good thing this one wasn't like most; "do as I say and do your job" types were wearing on her at her current, probably permanent rank. It was a good change of pace to see a Lieutenant, now that she had time to observe his bars, seeing eye to eye with a regular grunt. Observing the engagement of his first aid, she approached him with her IFAK in hand, popping open the pouch. "You need a hand?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard L. Church Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Jacob heard about what happened, and went to see the tank. The tank had a dent in it. He chuckled at the thought of what happened to the soldier responsible, if he'd done it he'd be chewed out. Then again had he been the cause, the tread might have fallen off.

SykoWolf Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Bauer looked up at Soto.... "Yeah heh, i think i may need to get some new armour, this one appears to have some blood on it" Bauer wiped some blood off with a cloth and cleaned some of his cuts...
