Roger’s efforts for the one woman were successful, the main bleeding point now that he could see it was not too bad as it had seemed, with stopping the worst of it the woman assuming she got medical attention would survive.

“So, the North has energy weapons and the south doesn’t. I wonder if we can use that to our advantage.” Lt. Sanks thought out loud still working on the alien language and trying to translate it to the broken English spoken by these people.

Lt. Sanks, Linguist

Just as Sanks would think this he would overhear more conversation between the two surviving South forces. “..Must be one of their elite units, same as ours..” one of them commented as another pinging of bullets came there way. Echoed by, “..Alert the APC unit, get them to come reinforce us..”

“Oh no you don’t,” El said, pursing her lips and setting a scan for the frequency they were using. “Trying to isolate their frequency to block it,” she murmured loud enough for the couple around her to hear. They were not going to out engineer her and she did not want another unit coming down on them. These two were annoying enough. She winced at the sound of the rounds that, while a waste, could be cover for one of them trying to get away. That might come ‘after’ they found they weren’t getting through. But first things first .. find their frequency and set her scanner to try to block it.

• El, Eng

Rachel leaned out from her cover and shot at the two remaining soldiers “Roger, use any cloth you have and pack the wound” She called out to the Scientist, she couldn’t risk running across the field until the other two soldiers were taken care of.”

Dr. Grey - CMO

El’s eyes flickered to where the doctor was. She thought that was an invitation for the soldiers to hit an easy target - aka Roger. While it wouldn’t be hard for them to strafe the prone man and the women too El hoped they wouldn’t. In the meantime, they just reminded them that Roger was there. “Isaac, Roger might be the next target. One of them is using their comms. I’m trying to block it but if the other pops up to shoot take it out,” she whispered

• El, Eng

Twin beams of phase pistol fire struck the two as they came out of cover, both dropped unconscious to the group over the ruins of the hover-cars they had been behind.

Meanwhile El’s efforts to block the radio had succeeded.....partly so, she picked up a return call on her comm unit. =/\= APC-32J to patrol squad, what was that? You were coming in all buzzed. =/\= A male voice questioned.

GM CockRoach

El took a breath and tried to remember the tone of the female leader as she worked to open the comms channel briefly but keeping up some of the interference. Matching her tone as she could to hide any of her own ‘alien accent’ she said =^= APC-32J this is squad leader. Comms were bumped in pursuit of looters. Two looters neutralized. Continuing patrol =^= While she might get in trouble with the Captain for that El would rather face that prospect than an APC while they were dealing with two seriously injured women. She glanced to the Captain then gritted her teeth at the situation and callousness of the soldiers. That being said, she wasn’t particularly a saint in the way she was thinking now. Closing her part of the channel she said to Isaac, “How was that?” He would know better the ‘military speak’.
- El, Eng

Ari watched as her second shot took down one of the two that popped up. “Hold your fire!” She hollered to the rest and waited a moment for silence to settle. Smiling addy El, she nodded quickly, “Good job.”

El gave a quick nod back to the Captain before she disappeared around the ruined vehicle. El remained where she was. It wouldn’t be good to miss any more transmissions from the APC and bring the military vehicle down on them. Pressing her back against the cool metal she focused on the scanner. The others were moving now; the doctor, Elizabeth. El was not very good with first aid but could manage if needed but right now this EM warfare was in her swim lane.
- El, Eng

Standing up, tentatively, she surveyed the five unconscious bodies and watched to be sure they hadn’t miscounted, or miscalculated. She scurried down the center between their cover and the other side where the soldiers had been hiding. Cautiously she looked around the corner to see if anyone still remained.

Ari
CO

As soon as Rachel got the hold fire order she looked across the field. After two seconds she ran in a crouch over to the injured women lying next to the Chief Scientist having replaced her phase pistol with a medical scanner. She dropped to her knee next to them and gave them a quick scan and visual assesment.

Dr. Grey - CMO

Soon as the CO broke cover, Elizabeth had been quick on her heels. There was no way she was going to let the CO be alone that far from the other pistols and, should anything happen, be in the line of fire, either.

She crouched just behind the CO and set her hand on the woman’s shoulder to let her know she was there. Half holding her breath, she waited to be sure, like Ari, that nothing more was hidden behind the rubble.

Elizabeth
Intel/Security

Seeing no one behind the other cover, Ari stood up and waved to the others. “All clear. Well, guess we aren’t going for the stroll we thought.” Flipping open her communicator, she hailed the ship. [O]Transporter Room, send down the standby Marine. Looks like we’ll have need after all.[O]

[O]Copy, Captain,[O] came the reply from NE Lane on the other end.

She knew it wouldn’t be long but she didn’t want to necessarily wait out in the open, either. Walking over to the wounded, she crouched down beside the Doc. “Will they be all right? Perhaps we can learn something more from them and save ourselves a bit of hassle. Either way, can’t just let them bleed out on the street.” She didn’t like the idea that they were partly to blame for the ladies being shot. If they had kept running past them, or even taken cover, perhaps things would have gone differently.

Ari
CO

Rende had already been on stand by and waiting. She was already geared up and ready to go. She nodded to NE Lane and stepped onto the transporter pad. These things, well this less advanced version, made her cautious, but she nodded to Lane and disappeared. These older versions took so long to work, but after several long seconds she appeared. She walked over to Ari taking in the scene. Indeed they could have used her much sooner. “Captain.”

Lt. Sanks didn’t really notice the person beam down, as he was still working, but felt like he was almost done with the language and communication of the alien translation compared to the broken English.
