Mission:
Peace, or Something Like It
Location: Turkana IV
[OLD]
Chichire pulled up her rifle and scanned the buildings nearest to her. "From my location, there's some sort of assembly line in the building at my 9:00. 12;00 is some sort of office building. 2:00 is a building I can't see through. It's heavily shielded. It has a wall around it. 3:00 is some sort of warehouse. The others are too far away."
Jaxara held his phaser close to him, and nodded to Delon. "In the words of the Klingons, today is a good day to die."
Kyt shook her head. "Do not tempt the prophets. Ready, Lieutenant Tovan."
[NEW]
SECURITY TEAM
"I've got point. Gunny watch our six."
The team of three quickly pushed through the trees and made it up to the fence. Tovan quickly changed the settings on his phaser rifle. He aimed it at the fence and opened fire. A hole formed in the fence in front of them. He signaled them to follow him in and stay low.
They moved along the warehouse and up to the shielded building. There were no windows of any sort and no other obvious entrances but the double doors located on the north side of the building. "By the looks of it, it doesn't seem like we have much choice but to go through the front door." Tovan said as he looked at the other door.
Jaxara smiled. "This is why you bring along a secondary protocol, Tovan." Jaxara noted. He withdrew a very different looking hand-pistol. "Explosive slug thrower. Door in a box."
Kyt raised her eyebrows. "I want one of those."
Tovan nodded. "Impressive weapon, but let's see if maybe the door is unlocked first before we go blowing it up. Saves ammo." Tovan chuckled as he looked in either direction to make sure that the coast was clear. When he was satisfied that it was he ran across to the door pressing his back on it. He grabbed the door knob and attempted to open the door. It was a success. The door opened and he motioned for others to follow him as he slipped inside.
The first room was dark but he could make out some light shining in front under the door that was in front of him. He grabbed a flash light from his gear and turned it on. To his left was a pair of stairs leading up and in front of him was another double door. He waited for the others to enter before they moved forward.
"Kyt, watch behind us, please." Jaxara whispered.
The woman nodded.
Jaxara had his weapons, both, in firing stance. "You taking the lead, or do I?" Jaxara asked Tovan.
"We should split up. You two take the lower level, I got the upper." Tovan said as he looked at the two.
"You have no backup. That's pretty damn dangerous, Tovan." Jaxara said.
"We will cover the building a lot quicker if we split up." As soon as Tovan finished saying that an alarm sounded off in the building. "It looks like they know we are here." They could hear footsteps coming from the doors behind them rushing towards the door. "Take cover!" Tovan screamed out as he moved quickly towards the stairs.
Jaxara shoved Kyt out of the way, and then followed her to a safe hiding place.
The doors were pushed open as two men came out of them. They were fully dressed in battle gear with rifles in their hands ready to defend the base. Tovan brought up his rifle and took aim. He fired at the first man dropping him to the ground.
Kyt rolled from being shoved, into a standing position with both her, and Jaxara's phaser in her hands. Both shots caught the second guard in the chest, and he fell. She handed him back his phaser.
"Thanks." She whispered.
"Still feel like splitting up?" Jaxara asked Tovan.
Before Delon had a chance to answer Jaxara, there was a sudden burst of phaser fire from inside the room towards their position. It seemed that once the first two guards had been taken out the rest took cover quickly and began shooting out the door. They weren't anywhere near close their targets which was the security team. Delon looked to Jaxara with a grin. "Let's head up stairs and see if we can find another way to the other side of the building."
"How well are you able to jump out a second-floor hole in the wall?" Jaxara asked, as the three quickly went up the staircase.
"Why?" Kyt asked.
An explosive bullet hit the base of the staircase, and a high-intensity phaser shot hit the top. "We're not being followed this way." He said. For good measure, an extra explosive shot went to the roof immediately above the bottom of the staircase. The minor cave-in blocked the access from the team that was attacking them.
