Ari came down a few moments later with Adams and Black. “We are going to see if we can grasp the soldier a few blocks away being interrogated. Doc, I need you to stay here without friend,” she gave the woman a smile she hoped would be interpreted as genuine. “Did you guys get anything from the computer?” She glanced towards others still near the terminal.

El spun around at the Captain’s arrival. “The conflict between nations has been going on for years principally over resources and has recently flared up into a military conflict.” That was pretty well the beginning and the end of that. “But Captain, they have lore of another ship that came with people like us, called the Great Greyhound who fought others in space and sacrificed themselves for the people here. What is more, another ship came only a few days back seeking repairs and landed at a city to the North called Bos’ton.” She gestured to the girl. “She and her mother were rescued by them in a battle on a bridge, saving them from slavers. It was from that direction that something happened and the sky turned color.”

Rachel turned to the Captain arriving and cocked her head curiously then nodded, preparing to depart at her word.

“The computer had some useful information about the advances of how this war has gone. But, it also seems to me that it’s biased based on what side of the war the writers are on.” Lt. Sanks responded to the captain.

Isaac looked at the captain “sir if we’re going to save the egg head we need to move now I saw some buildings close by that I can use as a perch spot and provide sniper support” he said as he pulled a MaCo scope to his rifle

Rachel nodded at the Armory Chief’s word, having overwatch support would be extremely useful in an urban setting, or a partially urban setting.

Time continued to tick away, no doubt while they chatted and planned the captured ESD officer was being beaten and interrogated. If they were going to move they should move now and hastily at that.

Ari nodded. “Ok, Black, get on that roof and cover us. Doc, we’re gonna have another victim in a moment. We are going to rescue one of the underdogs in this conflict. Hopefully he knows more of what happened that caused this.” She glanced the stranger and nodded. “I’m guessing the light in the sky was the shifting.” She didn’t want to say the planet had jumped locations. She hoped the shifting comment would be enough. “I’m betting something big shifted, somewhere, and caused the sky to light up.” There were enough ways to explain atmospheric anomalies in a way that wouldn’t give away just how much they knew.

“Adams, you’re with me. El, you were a pretty good shot. You can help cover our backsides and help. Come on. You can work more on that later. Sanks, I want all the files downloaded. We will be going back shortly and I want info to compare with the others.” She still hadn’t sussed out what to do with the woman, and soon the soldier. Perhaps they could leave them some basic rations and either send them on their way or let them stay here where it was relatively safe.

Shaking her head, she’d figure something out later. “All right, let’s make this quick. I want to be back here with no trace of us before they know what hit them.” She turned to head out the door and towards the direction of the rescue.

El thought that a bit more work on the mythos of this world would be in order such as this Great Greyhound thing and who they battled. “We may want to redirect sensors onto the area around this Bos’ton to see what may have happened there and if there is a trace of another ship,” El suggested as she synched her device to the helmet so that she could get transmissions from it to her device rather than having to lug the thing around. It didn’t take more than a minute to get herself ready, device in one hand and her pistol close by in the other. True she also had one of the enemies rifles over her shoulder but she trusted in her own. It was closer to what she was used to growing up. While she had some weapons training in the military academy in the UK it was her playing ‘Western quick draw’ with her father that gave her more skill. That and her reflexes were, in her opinion, pretty darn good.

With her hood up she trotted behind the Captain, light footed and not too noticeable with her dark trench coat in the growing darkness, senses tuned to the area that had quickly turned into a war zone - at least for them. ‘We’re not in Kansas anymore Toto’ she thought to herself as she smelled the familiar but not familiar air around her.

Isaac was across the street and going through the building quickly he cleared a couple floors and found a good perch area. He pulled his Com and said “ I am in position level 6 center window I can get them if they take cover” he said into the com making sure the frequency was secured.

Rachel nodded “Do ye want me tah stay here and wait or join the assault?” She asked, her face more focused and lucid than normal, combat situations usually brought her out of her apparent loopy haze.

As the team took up their positions down the street or on the roof down the way on another apartment building, they could see the MacArm soliders were really loosing patience with the ESD officer. They had really given the poor man a beating in the time the team had debated on what to do. A large broken left arm bone protruded from the socket by the shoulder blade, broken fingers on both hands were bent back badly and broken. Bruises across the poor man’s face and body were evident. Blood and spit some the officer’s own others from the MacArm interrogator’s were also evident. They all had clear lines of sight to take the MacArm soldiers by surprise, three shots from each person would bring the grisly scene to an end quickly and mostly quietly.

Isaac had a few Stun grenades he can drop to throw them off but that action could make his position known so he held back =^= Lt. Black to team we need to move fast the man will not be Abel to hold out much longer =^=

El felt a mix of emotions as she found her place. She was able to move quietly and her dark clothing choice helped her to be far less obvious than should she have been even, say, in uniform. Settling in an alley space between two buildings and behind a small dumpster she assessed her targets. Her nose wrinkled up at the smell of the garbage, but her teeth were bared in a look of disgust at what they were doing to the man. On the other hand she showed much admiration for the man for his standing up to the abuse. [o] I have my shots [c] El said quietly into her comms, though even if the order didn’t come she was going to fire before the man was killed outright. She only hoped the Captain had taken her position as well and would give the order soon.
