Her touch alleviated enough concern to draw a small smirk on his face. "
Then stay angry, Reaper." there was a spark of hope in there somewhere and when this mission was done and dusted, Hal knew he had to do all that he could to keep it alive. And to his surprise, none of the reasons concerned the Empire.
"
Meet us at the double doors leading to the nest." he split away to check on the works of Stalker and Rook. The sergeant hurried down the corridor, eyeing the offices the two SCAR troopers had cleared.
::
SCAR, this is Witness -- be advised, power's gonna kick back in a minute. Section leading up to the nest's hot with soldiers. :: overwatch's voice cracked through the rudimentary comms.
::
How hot, Witness? ::
::
Platoon hot. ::
By the Emperor.
::
Copy that, Witness. :: Sarge replied as he nearly stumbled into the large frame of Stalker. He sized her up and down, somehow for the first time realizing she was way beyond his height. "
You wearing heels or something, soldier?--" he narrowed his eyes catching a glimpse of a card in her hand. "
--I'll be damned, Stalker, think we might save the thermite for another day. That access key should get us through the double doors without much fuss. C'mon, let's get your new friend Rook and hit the nest."
They turned back down the large corridor leading to the double doors at the end where Reaper was already, only stopping to gather Rook from one of the adjacent offices on the way. "
What? Found something you like, kid? Come on, let's go." he gestured for Gavyn to follow.
"
Y'all heard Witness -- blackout's about to be over so we're going all guns blazing. Section after these doors ain't too different than this one, except that it's gonna be brimming with Tionese sons of bitches. Lots of them, too. End of the road's a large blast door leading into the cybersecurity's servers -- the nest. Reaper slicing their network a minute ago got us the access code. She'll open the blast doors and slice into the servers, get all the intel we need from the facility then we're out." he explained before turning around to face the double doors and taking point, rifle pressed hard against his shoulder. "
We move as a wedge. Reaper, Stalker, take my flanks. Rook, since you love blasting so much, drop behind and spray that cover fire till that barrel melts. There's a platoon waiting behind these doors, we'll have one shot to get to the nest before soldiers start filling up the area from our rear."
The lights began to flicker.
"
Open that door, Stalker." he pulled the NV goggles up and flexed the finger on his trigger.
As the door slid open with a hiss and the power was restored to the facility, he had one order to utter before all hell broke loose.
"
Weapons free."
