Alarms sounded at Kezeroth as he readied the Shuttles to launch to the Surface of Helska, With a turn of his head and glance at a combat ready squad of soldiers he shouted " Move it! Get your karking bodies in here!" The men marched into the shuttle with a haste and quickly buckled up. Signaling the pilot that everything was good by a thumbs up Kezeroth looked out the near window as the flooring below them lowered and the Shuttle doors closed. Red lights filled the Shuttle as everyone waited for the drop. Their was a silence before the metal magnetic seals released and the shuttle whistled as it fell into free fall from the upper atmosphere. The metal exterior burned as it got lower and the engines crackled. With a rough landing into the surface below, Sliding on a Icy plain intill the shuttle halted and settled in. Un-strapping himself and Kezeroth pushed the Shuttle door open, the whistle of icy winds touched his armor... He himself could not feel the cold in his suit. Turning his head back to the shuttle shouted " Guard the Shuttle, Droids on me! Its time to test some new toys." he grinned and started to head out. Was not far till the Gen'dai reached a cliff and noticed [member="Judas Zambrano"] shuttle landed in the distance. In a Rush of speed the Gen'dai lead the way down the steep cliff side to the Icy caverns.
" Follow the Leader... Hehe"

Both Droids Stepped in the Shuttle and were the first to buckle up against the metal wall. Heavens know that if they didnt then every fleshling in the shuttle would of been crushed. Holding their Electro-staffs close to their bodies and watching the Gen'dai glance to the window, Both Droids scanned their owner examining his weapons and outfits. Their Silence was reassuring to Kezeroth the Malevolent and both Enforcer droids predicted a nice future in service to him. Apon making contact with the ground One at a time the Droids and attached themselves from the wall and fell in on their leader. " As you Command, Mr. Malice! Our Enemies will perish....slowly." one of the droids said turning its head to its connected brother. Both eyed the route infront of them and activated thier Electro-Staffs.

Nothing like a bit of turbulence to get your blood flowing for a fight.
The vaguely handsome face Laguz put on today was grinning all the way down, and even as the impact of landing shook their pod, the creature beneath the armor let its body flow along with the stopping force. Good thing that the soldiers were too busy shaking off the unpleasant touchdown to notice that the odd one out was even stranger than he looked. Before someone could actually detect the anomalous fluctuation in the consistency of his form — 'his', how quaint — the hunter reassembled again, still smiling behind his helmet. It was going to be a nice enough day for some target practice, it seemed.
The brutally cold wind announced its presence as they crawled out of the pod, howling around their ears and chilling their bones. Laguz frowned, shooting a few sideways glances at the surrounding troops to make sure nobody was paying attention to the small, thin man in the back. His skin thickened underneath the armor, sprouting a protective layer of warm fur to combat the arctic temperatures of Helska. The hunter slipped his slugthrower out of its holster and shooed the men forward into the caverns, following his live shields at an appropriate distance.
Others joined them, small groups much like the one Laguz had arrived with; they weren't all quite as stealthy as theirs, however, and the hunter was less than amused by the fact. Caverns were one of the best when it came to natural acoustics, and they really didn't have to aid their enemy in finding them.
"Cut it with the shouting, would you?" he hissed at the leader of one such ensemble, a pale man with red eyes — doubtlessly a Sith Lord, then — unheeding of any perceived hierarchy. Rank didn't matter all that much when you were dead, and Laguz liked being alive. He was very good at it, in fact. Then again, centuries of practice will do that to you; it would be a shame to die now, and because of some power-drunk goth, no less.
Entering the caverns, Mikkel had about 15 soldiers following behind him. Why were they following him? Likely the Agent armor he was wearing. Mikkel sighed, realizing he'll probably be responsible for their lives. Examining the cavern, Mikkel looked around and examined the visible area, from one end of the cavern to the other, and behind him towards the hole they entered through.
Not noticing an immediate threat, Mikkel looked in the direction of the commander, [member="Nickolas Imura"], and contacted him using the radio built into his armor.
"Markov here with 15 soldiers. What are your orders?"
After landing and the group all coming together, I had two who came up asking for commands, and one telling me to stop the yelling. I rolled my eyes. Of the two who asked for commands. I looked around. Seeing different tunnels. Mostly, I saw three that we could immediately choose from. Pointing to the left most one, and to the Right most one,
"You two pick a tunnel and go through it. We need to secure a large enough area for us. And waiting here is not the way to do it. Scout out just enough to set up mines, traps, or use guerrilla warfare. Any full on fights will only bring this place down. And we don't want that. Move out."
The men that would be following them would stay with them. If small groups came, or if one large one came, They would have to attack, then quickly retreat to call them back. Likely by the stories of who these people were, they were not afraid to use every asset. Meaning, droids, Masters, Anything up their sleeves. However, that would likely not happen today. Turning then to the third person. Langues Bald or something like that? Anyways, I just gave him a look.
"Deal with it."

Kalee kept watching this person, wondering why they didn't bring anybody else? Eh, who cares. She was an Echo rank and expendable. Staying there, kneeling. Kalee was starting to get a shiver up her spine. Almost as though she felt like someone was watching them. Training her rifle up and out, making sure that no body was coming from tunnel on the far left, She breathed in and out easily. Trying to relax somewhat in a situation like this.

The ship all but crashed in the hanger and there was a moment of two of silence as the crew of the super carrier looked upon the ship. The crew in the hanger began to move back as a rising feeling of pure hatred and destruction was growing in the air around them. A few fire teams of dynasty marines began to envelop the ship in a half circle and prepared to fire on the group of whoever the hell was inside. So Dredge would make sure they got an entrance like no other. He walked over to the door that lead outside and drew the massive sith sword of Darth Vulcanus. The darkside nexus fueled him with rage and raw hatred and with an effort of will and focus he let out a beast like roar that was augmented by the force. The ramp came tumbling down to the monster that was Dredge. Using the force to augment his strength he came charging down the ramp and a few blasters went off on him. The armor of the former Sith Lord took them and his momentum was too strong for even the kinetic energy of the blasters. Scorches of black marks dotted the armor and Dredge raised his blade in the air and screamed one word.
"DIE!!!" And just like that, the marines lives were brought to an fiery end.
The fire ripped from Dredge's aura and tore Into the marines killing a few fire teams worth. Black charred bodies stood in place where the men once were and Dredge roared again as malice and hatred were coursing through him like a bat out of hell.
"KILL THEM ALL!! EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!!" Dredge screamed and charged forward bringing his sword down on an engineer killing him in a slice of gore and blood.
Pouring out from the ship the Graug and Yuuzhan Vong began to open fire on the crew of the hanger. Bodies began to litter the ground as the rifles and bio weapons went off killing those they aimed at. Sick smiles of joy and blood lust plastered themselves on the Graug and Vong's faces. They began to take up various positions of cover spreading out so a single grenade would not take them out.
OBJECTIVE: Objective 3 LOCATION: The Caverns - Right tunnel (beyond the chamber) CONTROLLER: Laguz Vald (writing-wise, not PC-wise) FORCES: 20 Soldiers
_____________________________________________
Deal with... oh for feth's sake!
The hunter rolled his eyes behind his helmet; just like he'd assumed. For every Forcer with common sense, there were ten who thought that their precious space magic would make them invincible. In his considerably lengthy life, Laguz had met a staggering number of Force-touched individuals, and more than enough to say that both — or, rather, all — sides of their eternal conflict had a similar percentage of haughty bastards just asking for a bullet. If there was anything those centuries had taught him, however, it was that playing the long game paid off much more than immediate satisfaction; besides, he needed to save his slugs for the real enemy.
Instead of starting an argument, the shapeshifter gladly chose the right-most tunnel leading further into the catacombs, moving a few paces behind his damage sinks as they were engulfed by the icy darkness. The soldiers in front of him were quiet enough, and he wasn't particularly worried for his safety just yet. In an effort to expand his senses over a larger area, the creature underneath the armor morphed again, a change imperceptible to anybody but him. Instead of human ears, his hearing organs imitated that of the Chiroptix now, and together with the aforementioned acoustics of the caverns, Laguz would be sure to note any approaching danger while it was still quite far away.
The small squad rounded a few more corners, making their progress without hindrance or opposition, until an awesome sight stopped them dead in their tracks. Before them there lay a magnificent underground chamber, its ceiling and far ends obscured by the oily blackness that seeped from the frozen pores of the earth.
Ah, Helska... you hold many secrets, the hunter smiled to himself as he absently ran his fingers along the rough stone. There was a distant dripping sound reverberating off the walls, magnified thousandfold by the vast space. He finally tore his gaze away from the impermeable darkness, turning to the soldiers beside him.
"I'm going to camp here, you go on ahead," it wasn't an order of any kind, for Laguz was no commander — nor he wished to be — but it was a sensible choice. The troops weren't snipers like him, and lingering on the elevated ledge would do them no good. For the hunter, on the other hand, the perch was much like a birthday gift from his favorite uncle, and the creature set to work with a newfound glee. The caves they'd found themselves in were obviously three-dimensional, and with any luck, some of the enemy would arrive into the chamber below, unknowingly delivering themselves on a silver platter.
As soon as Dredge disembarked from the Rebluff and panned across the hangar bay, Ciara shouted, "BRING OUT THE AT-RTs."
Before the defensive force which had abruptly formed to combat Dredge and Ciara could return any substantial fire in an attempt at a counter-attack, two AT-RTs emerged from the landing ramp of the Rebluff and immediately began laying down suppressing fire. Commandeered by two Graug Guardsmen wielding dual Quaker SMGs and with Ratteler Rifles slung on their backs, the AT-RTs blaster cannons prevented the enemy from advancing towards the Rebluff and causing any real damage to the Ciara and Dredge's forces. Any who attempted to fire at the exposed pilots of the AT-RTs was immediately met by cover fire by four Graug soldiers flanking the AT-RTs and taking cover at the legs of AT-RT, who focused fired on the closest individuals with their Ratteler Rifles. The AT-RTs slowly advanced forward before reaching an unoccupied anti-grav truck, utilizing it as cover for its exposed pilots.
As soon as this position was created, six Graug immediately hauled out of the Rebluff, three of which carried Skyfire Mortar Systems, two holding Harbinger Anti-Material Rifles, and the last Graug, the leader of the group, holding the Menance Sonic Blaster Rifle, in anticipation for any lightsaber wielders. The three Skyfire Mortar Systems were immediately set up, deployed and began to unleash a firestorm of plasmatic blasts, destroying metal and flesh alike. The other two Graug utilized the Harbinger Anti-Material Rifles to effectively fire at exposed and retreating troops, allowing for maximal carnage. Finally, Gruk waited in anticipation and barked orders at the squad in order to ensure maximal firepower and combat effectiveness.
Ciara emerged from the Rebluff last, and at this point, the Rebluff began digging through the durasteel floors of the hangar in order to create a depression in which to lie, as well as spewing out chunks of liquefied durasteel from its previous work with the hangar bay doors: thus, the Rebluff was effectively creating a protective trench of durasteel for itself from the ongoing fire fight occurring at the moment to protect itself. Ciara held the Hunter's Bow and immediately pulled back the first bolt. Aiming at a nearby soldier, she fired with extreme accuracy and precision and smiled in delight. On her back, she had slung the Elite Horder Rifle on her back.Both of these weapons were personally gifted to her by Dredge, left behind for her to utilize. Flanked to her rear were eight House Guardsmen who immediately dragged cargo containers and abandoned anti-grav vehicles around the Rebluff and established a defensive position around the Rebluff. Soon enough, a makeshift barricade was formed around the Rebluff and Ciara waited for Dredge's next move.

Solan Charr looked to the side as a screen was brought up, showing a certain creature that instantly caused Solan's eyes to harden. "Aedan... im leaving for now... think that you can deal with the command?" He looked at [member="Aedan Miles"], giving him command of the fleet before sighing and grabbing his scythe. It wouldn't take him long but before he would head down he would make sure to stop by his personal armory, placing three Browncoat Forcebreakers in it's depths as well as a set of concussions, thermites and lastly, two Thermal Detonators that he looked at for a few seconds before making sure they were secured out of sight.
Next he placed a number of daggers, lining the viola coat and his cloak itself with them before grabbing a basic saber and shoto, letting them secured themselves in his sleeves. Once that was done he made sure to secure a Echani shield to his wrist, testing it quick and making sure the charge was full and lastly he placed on his new mask, a re breather with different visual capabilities but nothing more. Lastly came the Scythe that he had received from one Ashe the Reaper, his hands closing around it before he slipped on the mask and started down the turbolift to gut a vong.
Mikkel nodded and took his forces into the tunnel on the left. The tunnel was quite narrow, but Mikkel signaled one soldier to each side as they entered the pitch black tunnel. Rifles up, Mikkel and his men moved through the tunnel until they reached a large room about 50 meters long in time to hear an explosion in the distance, echoing from the tunnel at the opposite side of the room. Examining the features of the room, Mikkel noted the large hunks of ice that could be used for cover. There were also two other tunnels, larger than the tunnel the group just came from, one on each side of the room.
Mikkel turned to the soldiers following. "Place a mine in the center of the room, and have it trip when someone enters from the tunnel opposite us. We want to know if they're coming, but we don't want to collapse the whole room. One of you run back and report what just happened," he said.
Somewhat surprised the soldiers followed his command, he shrugged and motioned for the remaining soldiers to follow him down the right tunnel.
The Vahla nodded once at the orders, then chose twenty soldiers to accompany her from the main force. With the right side already chosen, she led her small force down the ice crusted tunnel on the left, keeping her senses on high alert while maintaining silence for now. Any slight sound would reverberate off these walls sending waves of roaring sound to anyone or anything further down the tunnel, stealing the element of surprise. However, she was sure they were the first to arrive since the ground offered up no signs of recent travel with the absence of footprints in the snow or chunks of broken ice caused by the metal spikes attached to the boots on the soldiers feet to give them better grip.
The group stepped into a side antechamber on the left halfway down the tunnel, with ice stalactites hanging down like jagged teeth inside the mouth of a massive predator. Those would be a serious problem if they came down during a fire fight. But the female Dark Jedi knew ways to turn the environment into a weapon. "You five," she began pointing out five soldiers, "Will lay mines in a strategic pattern around the entrance and under those ice formations above us." She picked out another five soldiers after walking to the centre of cavern and pointed first at the left wall then the right wall ordered, "You will embed mines there but keep them slightly exposed. If the enemy reaches this pointe, we can fire on those mines adding an element of surprise to the enemy." She led the last ten to a natural defensive structure created by the hardened ice, tapping it for weaknesses. Feeling this would be sufficient enough to make a stand, she ordered eight soldiers to begin digging trenches behind this structure using the the blow torches they had brought. "Dig no more than knee high all along the line of this structure. I want you to be able to stand upright and use the ice structure as a means to balance your rifles on, giving you more accuracy than holding your weapon."
She looked at the area again and noticed a small crevice big enough to fit through if one was willing to crawl on all fours behind the barricade. "You will be the designated munitions supplier. Your sole responsibility is to ensure our boys never run out. Set up over there behind those two stalagmites, and keep your head down when resupplying them," her final orders given to the lone remaining soldier. She left his presence, dropped to all fours and crawled through the crevice. What she found was another chamber, smaller than the one she just left behind. The only way to enter this chamber was the way she came. If in the event of being overrun, this will become their staging area. she made a mental note to have the supply trooper put some explosives in there in the event the enemy tried to seal them in.

The hanger was going crazy, everywhere crews were unable to perform their jobs as torrents of gunfire came crashing down on various positions. Men and women lay on the ground bleeding or dead as they were struck with rounds from the Primeval's weaponry. They had brought their own light armor and created a perimeter around their getaway vehicle. But Dredge wasn't about to hide behind some crates when there was murder to be had.
"YOU ARE NOTHING TO ME!!" Dredge roared and the sword and armor kept fueling him with more darkside energy.
"DIE!!" He screamed and his attack was ready to go.
Dredge lifted his sword in one hand and open palm with his other and white hot fire began to exude outwards. Entire crews and squads were wiped out as the powerhouse of a sith let loose inside the hanger. But he did not stop there, he began to push forward away from the perimeter burning and scorching crews. The massive jousts of flames roared through him and his aura began to coat him in raw flames. Behind him the Graug and Vong kept up their jobs and fired upon other folks as they maintained the position. Dredge was going hard and he would tear this place down around him if he had to.
Right. This would be easy, these fools were still constrained to two dimensions. If anything, though, they had one redeeming factor, the Yorika cruiser. Their fleet was now physically visible from his point of view. They were moving, but as an entire fleet. There were only two ships moving, one of them a yorika.
"Communications officer."
"Yes, commander?"
"Put me in communications with the rest of the fleet."
"Yes sir.... and... your good."
"Now, tell me why they're changing their defensive formation."
"Excuse me, sir?"
Kadri sighed as he put his hand up to the bridge of his nose and pinched it. If not even his own bridge crew knew how to spot flaw then there truly was no hope for them.
"Their change in defense lies within an inability to command. He is unsure of himself. It easily gives way to the goal as well. We have men inside of their capital ship, and they know that we lose our edge if it is destroyed, so they shield themselves behind it. Pilot, I want you to bring us forward full speed. [member="Zambrano the Hutt"] , I want you to use the dovin basals to set up a "shield" in front of the main part of our formation and start draining theirs'. When we come into range I want you to back off and harass them, we'll keep them from gathering on the back of your ship. Siege Tower [Ruin-class], you will miss the first few shots then start harassing the larger targets in the fleet, use mass drivers on them as you see fit. Carnage frigates will follow suit in firing all mass driver cannons at their front line, then they will back off to the center Once we get further in I want the mendacities to fire ion cannons at the support ships once they reveal themselves then get into the center with the carnages. [member="Darth Legion"] , I want you to open fire on all ships within the middle of their fleet with your Hyper-velocity cannon and fire all other long range weapons indiscriminately into both sides to keep them from getting any thoughts of maintaining integrity. Deluge frigates maintain course and prepare flak cannons. All bombers go forward, until I say otherwise the targets are any ships in the middle, be prepared to pull back to the fleet quickly on my command. Carriers prepare to launch the rest of the fighters on my command. As for me, I will pull up to facilitate the carnages and mendacities moving to our center after the initial mass drivers are fired. That is all until further orders. Prepare yourselves, we will be in range within minutes"
Actions: All of these will be taken once we come into range -Ruin-class firing three of six long-range missile turrets at the yorika, the other three firing on the fleet that it is going towards. It is also adjusting to fire its mass driver weapons at the yorika -Carnage-class frigates firing mass drivers en masse at the SE front line ships -Mendacities ordered to fire one support vessels when they are revealed -[member="Darth Legion"] ordered to fire HVC at the yorika and other long-range (4 heavy ions and 10 heavy turbolasers, all with long range descriptor) once in range
-[member="Zambrano the Hutt"] ordered to use Dovin Basals as shields against a good bit of what would be incoming long range fire if it is enacted
-Bombers going forward to begin attacking until further orders are given
-Deluges preparing flak fire
-Deliverace trading places with the carnage frigates after they fire all mass drivers
-carriers holding other fighters until the order is given to do otherwise

Marching into the tunnel Judas and his unit of droids advanced but one of the droids pulled their convergence pistol without even being commanded to and shot the mine that had been left to surprise them. Shame that the droids had advanced sensors that could pick up vibrations and thermal vision or else they would've been caught by surprise. But due to them being in a cavern created of ice the mines stood out their heat giving them away and the vibrations it emitted traveled faster through ice then it would a normal surface. All of this and on top of that it was placed on top of the ice. Someone probably thought Judas had only came with human soldiers but oh how wrong they were.
On his right and left their were two tunnels each going one way or another and one that stood right before him going straight ahead. Considering the mine had been placed to catch them by surprise their targets could've went down any one of the caverns. "Destroy the entrances to the right and left tunnels." Judas commanded and two of his Crimson Avengers obeyed both turning to their respective tunnels and firing the Rapture launchers at them. The blast was powerful enough to blow ice off the wall and block off the entrances to the cavern which would make it difficult for any trying to come out through them unless they could blow it up.
"Vision check." Judas said to the droids and he complied as well shifting his armor through the different visual modes which included thermal and night vision. With the heat signatures that the weapons and humans would give off they would be extremely easy to spot in the cavern. He saw some down the left tunnel that would now be trapped temporarily and some faint signals in the distance.
Location: Aboard The Thorn (Skrii-Ro'ik Cruiser Analog) Objective: Objective One: Whip the enemy into submission Enemies: Our good "Friendsss" the Shadow Dynasty Allies: [member="Darth Legion"], [member="Bant Mezaras"], and those aboard the various Primeval vessels
Ships: Skrii-Ro'ik Cruiser Analog carrying a GU-20 Fighter Squadron (12), and currently deploying GU-55 Bomber Squadron (7). (Weapon capacity stands at 45 Dovin Basals, and 65 Yaret-Kor)
Fleet Orders:
"...Skrii-Ro'ik [spearhead] them excessively using Dovin Basals as I see fit, weapons firing en masse."
"Zambrano the Hutt , I want you to use the dovin basals to set up a "shield" in front of the main part of our formation and start draining theirs'. When we come into range I want you to back off and harass them, we'll keep them from gathering on the back of your ship."
"All bombers go forward, until I say so the target is the yorika or the other ships straggled in the middle. Carriers prepare to launch the rest of the fighters on my command."
Location: Bomber Squadron Recently Deployed from Hangar Bay Objective: Objective Two - Targeting Nearest Hostile Ship for bombing runs until specific orders are given. Controller: Zambrano the Hutt Force Limit: 12 + 7 = 21 (One fighter will malfunction, in order to maintain appropriate force limits) Submission Link: Not Relevant
The Bomber Commander henceforth called Steward, lurched back into his seat as his bomber was given the go ahead for deployment into the fleet zone for combat. No clear objectives were delegated yet, but he was told to standby on orders and to default to the nearest possible actively hostile ship should specific orders not be given promptly. Quickly, he checked in with the rest of his group as they exited the filthy disgusting ship made out of flesh. It would have made him gag, if not for his pilot hard stomach.
As the Zambrano monster hovered through space, leading the charge of the arrow/tooth-cap fleet formation, he could hear new whispers just as the enemy was coming into long range distance. Probably out of range for his Yaret-Kor, but upon being order to "shield" up the fleet, he may as well follow through with his first orders as well. With a giggle or seven, with nothing but a thought, 65 streams of plasma rocks fired forward indiscriminately en masse towards the three leading ships in the Shadow Empire's approaching fleet. The Yaret-Kor had an absolute maximum range of 60 kilometers before losing effective energy to puncture shields and melt starship hulls, without even adding in the horrible accuracy of the weapon at that distance, but with the sheer number of the cannons in the forward position, at some point he would be bound to hit something, and decimate... most especially after he pulled off his next move.
Using about half of his Dovin Basals, Zambrano the Hutt toyed with their incredible gravitational manipulation powers to generate a soft barrier of gravity in front of the fleet, just far enough away that fluctuations passing through the extensive area would allow Zambrano to react to the stimuli with the generation of miniature black holes. Obviously this barrier was not perfect, but it was effective shielding from long ranged attack. Any matter or laser energy aiming towards the front of the fleet would first be slowed and slightly trajectory warped by the gravity field, before subsequently being sucked into micro black holes activated upon Zambrano's sub-conscious command. At least initially the barrier would be more than sufficient as it stood to defend against anything the Dynasty had to throw at them, with only a very slim percentage of their fire power being able to get through where the barrier was placed, directly in front of the fleet's arrow nose.
Whilst he completed the first set of his orders with utter glee to the point it was almost abandon, he then proceeded to put pressure on the shields of the seven front-most ships, draining and weakening the effectiveness of their energy barriers. If nothing changed, the ships shields would pop in no time, each having about 3 Dovin Basals working in conjunction to strip the shields from each of the targeted ships, rendering them utterly vulnerable to more direct attack if successful. If the distance began closing between 10-60 km, those specific ships were in immediate danger of facing the full frontal wrath of his Yaret-Kor burning through their possibly exposed hulls, or if they still retained their shields, they would soon begin to fail. Of course, his aid did remind him that upon closing distance, he was to begin settling back lest the enemy miraculous manage to get behind the slow turning vessel. In addition to this, all seven bombers were launched from The Thorn's Hangar bay, while fighters went on standby until the order was received to launch them. These bombers would fly in a tight formation heading for the first closest ship to initiate return volley's. Strategy to be elaborated upon approach.
As the group could hear the tunnel being sealed off with a loud explosion so soon after the mine that had been meant to warn us detonated, Mikkel had to rethink his entire plan of attack. The initial plan was for the mine to be set off and alert Mikkel and his group to enemy forces, signaling them to get into defensive positions. But, the plan also relied on the enemy forces coming down Mikkel's tunnel and engage the group, the sounds from the battle no doubt alerting the main forces to come down the tunnel and attack the enemy from behind while Mikkel and his group attacked from the front.
Didn't really see that coming. Mikkel thought with a small smile. Looking around, the other soldiers didn't seem to be taking the situation too well. They all looked at him, expecting him to have a plan. Since when was I a leader? They just followed me, why should I be responsible for their lives? I'd probably be much better off without them...
Mikkel attempted to contact the Commander via short range communicator. "Hello, [member="Nickolas Imura"]? Markov reporting in, My squad is trapped inside a tunnel with an enemy heading your way. What are your orders?"
While awaiting a response, Mikkel looked around at the soldiers, thinking he had to say something. "Right now we keep moving. Who knows, maybe this tunnel links up with one of the others." The soldiers didn't seem too convinced by him, but they followed Mikkel further down the tunnel nonetheless.

It seemed crazy to go into the caverns without scoping the place out, His Corrupt gaze eyed the main entrance and watched as a minor explosion occurred. Rolling his eyes Kezeroht looked behind him and stopping few yards away behind a chunk of glossy Ice. Both of his assigned guards were slow but they caught up within a minute, not bad for a droid. Raising his right arm up to sight he pressed a button that activated a comm on his suit. Messaging [member="Judas Zambrano"] he spoke rather loudly despite everything that was going on. " Whats going on?! Forget it...." he growled not really wanting to know. Examining the Cavern entrance Kezeroth tilted his head an growled from afar, It was no doubt dark and full of traps. Thinking before charging in was his new formed habit thanks to Bounty hunting and Mercenary work, but what was the best Strategy here?
Perhaps no Strategy but rather spring the trap? Though to himself as he held his Mk.1 Convergence in a comfy spot under his crimson red arm, Holding it with one hand he had to be careful when firing the thing. If it acted anything like his own Concussion rifle it would be hard to control with one hand, again the last to show up the action. Quickly meeting up with his apprentice Judas, The Gen'dai eyed the sealed off tunnels and pondered once more. " Dont waste your ammo on Ice.... Interesting situation we have here..." he stated listening to his deep growl of a voice echo through the caverns of ice for quite a long distance. Standing in Silence for a minute or more Kezeroth could feel the pulse of several sentient, they were far and faint. His instincts never failed him, they were not the first of arrive. " Mmmmm... I can feel them..Faint and distant." Again his voice echoed throughout the ice caverns once more, Being able to feel the heartbeat was easy, Like breathing it was instinct. But Locating that Pulse was different and would prove impossible for someone with limited patience like Kezeroth.
Gritting his teeth and listening to him own voice echo deeper and deeper. In a quick motion the Crimson armored mask folded back showing a face of Stone and pain, With the cave lit poorly it was eerie to catch the sight of the Gen'dais red eyes glow about faintly. Stepping in front of Judas and looking closely at the Walls of the Cavern he suddenly grinned. His shoulders rose up and his head cocked back as if he took in a deep breath, which was odd because Gen'dai did not have Lungs... The darkside stirred for a moment. His Mouth opened wide and bobbing his head forward suddenly a violent Force Scream Echoed about down the Center Tunnel, With the walls of Ice slick covering all around the violent sound would come through the caverns like a strong gust from a storm and linger about bouncing off the walls around, Strong enough to bring pain and the untrained to a knee. Judas adjacent to Kezeroth would even feel painful affects but not the full blast of it all that traveled down the tunnels. With wide eyes and blinking slightly hard Kezeroth himself grunted as he endured the pain of using Force Scream in a Cavern. Shaking his head he muttered " Pain is power...."
Waving a hand forward and nodding the Gen'dai signaled both of his droids to take point and lead down the Tunnel. If a Fire fight broke out they would soak up some damage.

" How is Mr. Malice so fast?!" both droids said looking at each other as the struggled to keep up with their jog, Thankfully their Gen'dai master waited for them. Lingering outside the Entrance both droids scanned the area but found nothing but [member="Judas Zambrano"] ahead. It was all clear so far! Still they waited and watched as their master talked to his partner. Eventually moving forward they halted and regrouped with more droids, the other droids were inferior in design in there advanced minds. Examining the small army one Enforcer droid said lowly " Lowly war droids..." Soon enough its comment was blurred and muffled under the violent waves of sound that emitted from the masters mouth. Intriguing at the most! After the Screaming session both droids nodded and took point walking down the Center Tunnel.
*Destiny sprung from the landing vessel maintaining a position safe behind the AT-RT's. Destiny used the DC-15A given her by Ciara to pick off priority targets with inhuman accuracy at range. As the initial wave of marines were killed in a myriad dance of blaster fire and flames Destiny took a slow advance, allocating priority to objectives and targets, while noting retreat patterns in order to determine possible weak flanks. As the number of marines defending her section of the hangar diminished Destiny took a more active role in cleaning up targets as the risk of damage fell.*

As orders came in from the commander, Legion had his crew lock on target of the Yarika Cruiser with the charged Hypervelocity Cannon. As soon as the target was locked, the Dreadnaught unleashed the barrage onto the heavy cruiser. The ship rocked hard as a dozen tungsten rods were spewed forth from the Reaver's mouth. To penetrate the shielding, then the hull would take the first six rods, the next would see to punch through the craft and rip it apart.
After the first volley from the cannon, Legion order the long range Ion Cannons to fire upon the Krayt Cruiser and the Bandon Star Destroyer. Eight shots to each vessel, aiming to drop their shields and power. Following the Ion cannons, the Long Range Turbolaser cannons to fire twenty shots to the same to vessels each. Legion aimed to take out the biggest guns as fast as he could. The first volley of the battle was launched, the battle would yet erupt into a glorious display of strategy and firepower.

(OOC: Decided to make a map for us to keep everything straight, and to see where everybody is. NOTE this map only shows location of people. If the map is wrong, then tell me Via PM before you post. Thanks.)
Taking a look around, I then heard an explosion go off. Letting us know that they were close. Within one click at least. I had to speed up the operation. Looking around, I had a feeling that they would be trying something. Ice was not a good friend. Considering that light, sounds, and even simple vibrations would reverberate off of the ice. I watched as Ciara was doing well commanding the troops. While Laguz and Mikkel were going off on different tunnels. I knew that it came from the side Makkel was on. This was his first mission ever. I hoped that he was doing well. Trying to reach him, I attempted to make some form of communication.
"Miklkel, You good? I heard an explosion in your direction?"
I didn't see anything that suggested that he might be alive, or even coming in our direction.
"Ciara speed u-"
Getting caught up in my words as I could hear a rumble before a screaming came to our ears. Quickly, I acted by raising my fists high in the air. In front of the tunnel the sound was coming from erected a ice wall. My Earth shaping skills allowed me to move the earth and the ground beneath. Seeing as how most of this was all frozen ice, stone and earth like material, it worked the same here.
The screaming that had been sent our way was cutoff for the time being. However, the little burp that came still hurt a majority of the men. Looking around, I noticed that most of them men who didn't wear helmets that covered their entire head were bleeding from the ears now. And were throwing up from getting sick. Even so, I felt sick to my stomach. And with the excursion of Earth shaping I just did.
Well, lets say that this was the fastest I have ever taken my helmet off.
And now there was a pile of vomit close to my feet. Whoever was down there, knew how to control force scream. Meaning they might be able to keep it up and just break all this ice. However, that would only make him loose. Closing off this area to be used as a base. he would have to stop eventually.
Through sounds of almost sounding like I was gonna throw up again.
"Ciara uhhh.... We need to get everybouhhh... moving again. Get them moving and make sure they alluhhh.... make sure they have their systems clear. Just incase it happens again."
Looking up towards the drop pod, I grabbed an Echo Ranked female and spoke to her.
"See if there are any medhhhh.... Medical supplies in the drop pod."
Location:Ice Caverns Objective:Objective Three - Claim the Ice Caverns Controller:Nickolas Imura Vantage Point: Kalee Hawns Force Limit:20 Submission Link:N/A Kalee was down on the ground trying to overcome the gagging in her throat and stomach. However, she didn't eat anything this morning so nothing came up. She was somewhat clear. She felt some bile come up her throat, but didn't leave her stomach. After hearing Imura talk about needing everybody to rid there system, she thought it was weird. It came up again, and she let it leave. It was very un-lady-like. Either way, she was then given the command to look for supplies back in the drop pods. Helping the man she talked to earlier up, she gave him the same orders, only to come and help her. Both of them rushed over as fast as they could, which was more like a fast walk, towards the drop pods to see if anything was inside.
