The murmur of hydra manning radio switchboards, the shouts of armed teams coming and going. This was surely the place covereed in the instructions that were left with the helicopter pilot and the broadcasts and flyers strewn about.
'The chinese were attacking' Those flyers said, though obviously plenty have arrived based off of the people leaving into the woods. The Muster point is empty for a few moments before a large scarred up soldier that looks mostly like a hammered pile of muscle and rage steps up to await the latest group's gathering.
A fennec strolls through the area and stops before Cerris. She stares at him for a moment and stifles a yawn. She certainly isn't dressed for any kind of war. "This is the place, yeah?"
Kori was in the barn when people started yelling about chinese. It didn't take hir long to get out to the muster point on foot at a flat sprint, grabbing a jacket to cover hirself with while assuming a more human form. The jacket was meant to hise those extra bits shi had both above and below, and some shoes (can't go without shoes). For most this would make hir look like a human in baggy clothes. All the better perhaps. But we digress from hir arrival and glowering. This interrupted a food production session and shi is not happy. Nope.
The large soldier frowns as he studies the new arrivals, but says nothing at first. Eventually when he is certain no one else was gonna come stumbling up, he clears his throat and begins speaking with a voice that would make grinding gravel sound like a siren's sweet serendae.
"I'll keep this short and sweet: Our aerial spotters have given us a bead on several groups of chinese soldiers reconoitering in the forest. We've sent other groups out to intercept these scouts and you're next. We can't afford to have any of them escape to give valuable info to their main force where ever the fuck they are, so your orders are simple...None of them can get through or go back. That means dead or alive they must be neutralized on sight. Here is a map with their basic route, move out as soon as you are ready and do what you must, because you can."
Edel glances around and frowns. "Is this all? Oh dear. I came to help and fix things. I didn't actually anticipate having to kill things." A soft sigh escapes from her as she unpacks her laser rifle from her bag.
Herma Flew out of the barn following and then passing Kori to tackle the first soldier sie saw. Hir 14 horsecocks slapping the fool in the face as shi went to interregating him right on the battlefield. Sie had be on edge all day and sie wanted answers to hir new life quest "Wherez all $800,000,000o' mai'wee'poniponiz! I now you commies tookhe to your commie houses of devil worship as sacrafices to Satan who lives in the center of the earth every sunday and in space every other weekday!"
The soldier the horse herm tackled begins to scream "WHOAH WHOAH!" he pants "Calm down, it's me!" panting heavily "It's one of your friends!"
Kori looks at the map, then at the soldier, then the map again. ".... Ignoring the crazy pills for a moment." Eyeing an excited blabbermouth there. "Do these scouts happen to have any air surveilence equipment on them?"
The soldier in question simply palms the head of the tiny winged horse and tosses her away from himself, taking the situation in stride fairly well before wiping his face with the other hand.
"Open your eyes Magoo...that's good enthusiasm, but I'm not a red star wearing chinese soldier. And I'd advise you manage your mind on approach...all reports say they shoot any infected they see on sight, no questions asked. Now if there are no actual questions, I'll be pulse uploading this map to the local comm units and you can follow the course laid in and move out."
Without waiting for a reply, a series of beeps alert incoming navcomm data.
"Only info we have on their equipment is that some of em are in powered armor and they use automatic weapons...you are going to have to ascertain the rest. No flying units have been spotted and they haven't been able to spot most of our spies."
Edel rubs her head. "Ah, well. Hoping for the best, then!" She scuffs her paws on the ground and glances towards the horse.
Herma had hir mouth drop in surprise. Looking at the man's face that was covered in both bruses and jizz. "I'm Not Enthusiasm, I'm Herma. Gitme name right!" Whinned Herma with snort while digging into the ground with a hoof.
A hooded figure can be seen in the distance, crouched down low with some sort of gear in it's hands. Immediatly the figure raises the device and points it towards the soldier and takes aim, ready to fire when the time is right.
Kori examines the maps very closely. This was important. Shi needed landmark references to do what shi was thinking of doing. "Meh. Well we have a long run. They'll hear vehicles coming. And those suits might alert them to thermal signatures from a few hundred yards out. Difficult indeed."
Herma I'm still too large to fit comfortably inside the ass of an invading stright man,.
Herma flies up to the sky and takes to the tip tops of the tallest trees. That would be hir cover as Sie flew from one tree to the next on the way to meet the enemy forces. 'when they come into my sights, there is going to be lots of rapesex. Angry soddomiezing!' Herma thoght as sie held one of hir cocks like a rifle and pumped it.
With nothing of any importance being said, nor any questions being asked, the briefing soldier just stares at the group, hoping desperately that they'll get it together an go off and battle the chinese. But he simply stands there staring at them...and wondering if he shouldn't have their of the forest burned and bombed so they can just start over fresh. "You lot can leave anytime now...."
Edel nods. "Uh, right. Right. Off we go, then." She turns and starts wandering off in the direction she was told to go, quietly musing to herself, "What in the world am I doing here..."
the hooded figure fires a bolt, attempting to shatter the soldier's kneecap. The bolt flies true through the air, whizzing straight for the soon to be handicapped soldier.
Kori twitches hir nose (since shi lacks the kind of ears that can twitch). Humph. Yeah it was time to get a move on. She claps the soldier on the shoulder, pretty hard at that, in passing. "You best go indoors." Its going to get ugly. And from here she takes off at a run while drawing a crossbow from...wait, that jacket had no pockets so where the hell did that thing come from?
For his part, the briefing officer takes it pretty well when a crossbow bolt slams into the ground between his feet. Looking in the direction the attack roughly came from he shouts "Alert alert alert, we are under attack! Unknown assailant all forces respond and neutralize! We must assume the chinese slipped past one of the patrols!"
The hooded figure pulls up a pair of binoculars to examine the targets better "Oh shit...i fucked up..." they note to themselves "Well, time to attempt at sneaking out of this." The figure quickly begins digging frantically at the ground in attempt to hide.
Edel stops in her tracks, ears perking. She readies her rifle and... Throws herself on the ground, trying to reduce her small profile even more.
Kori turns at the yelling. "Fuck." Skidding to a stop, shi changes direction abruptly. Which way? Well its hard to tell. Nobody said what direction to go. Ohgoddamnit. Listen! Strain your ears. What can shi hear...besides people going nuts.
"Surprise horseseckz!" Herma starts the counter attack with a infectious payload from one of hir crotch rockets the size of patriot missiles! Since Herma's ears were a bit better than most equines, and eqines had 360 degree hearing anyway, Finding hir target was going to be easy! Just fire and forget as the commie human bastards was expected to join the herd and became one of Herma's mares.
The responce from the camp is almost excessive; the sounds of guns cocking, priming or locking into place is almost deafening save it is drowned out by directions being shouted as the Eurekan cops, Hard Corps. Soldiers and local volunteers move in. Snipers dropping down around edel whilst close range troops fan out in a flanking ring as they charge out to intercept the presumed chinese attack. In their rush many open fire without proper aiming, which in course sets off others and soon it is a firing line of madness.
Kori becomes lost in the confusion of guns firing and people yelling. But there's nothing in sight to make this worth the chaos and it was oonly a waste of ammo at this time. Shi yelled for the shooting to stop, but these people are unable to hear hir, thus hir breath was wasted. Shi had to fiond cover, and quick, until this crapstorm stopped. What a significant impediment to the scouting they were supposed to thwart.
Edel sort of just locks up. With those ears? And all that gunfire? "Why did I think this is a good idea, cripes." She claps an arm over her ears and pulls her goggles down.
the hooded figure has no time to react as blood splatters outwards from her from the four shots "Aaaaah!" they scream out before slumping down into the hole they digged.
Edel keeps her head down, trying to find the supposed 'attackers'. Other than that, she's content to remain on the ground near the snipers which are bound to shoot anything that's a threat, right?
Herma was hit twice on the rump! FUCKING OUCH! but now was not the time to worry about that, Sie had a communist to turn into one of hir mates and bare hir foals! Herma wrapped hir legs around the invaders face, shoved a cock into his or her mouth, and fired a creamy load of semen down that hooded human's throat. "This'll teachy'all ta steal my toys!"
Kori stays on the ground, waiting for the firing to stop. Really that was all shi had as an option. The soldiers ad cops were trigger happy right now. "Damn nutjobs," shi muttered.
"CEASE FIRE! Move in, apprehend the attacker, retrieve the fallen!"
Soldiers and cops swarm in to pick up Herma and carry her to safety, her hide saving her from any lethal harm whilst Harb gets a express trip into stasis, her form freezing up before her head has to deal with the incoming infection.
Those not apart of the combat quickly return to their stations and duties, but the damage was done. One would potential allie was out of the fight and another had been lightly wounded.
Okay, ...FUCK that aint no damn chinese national uniform! This dickhead is a local...toss the remains of that traitorus idiot into chains and we'll let the locals deal with it. The rest of you? Get the fuck out there! The chinese...hell the motherfucking russians know where we are now."
Edel looks over in Kori's direction, slowly standing. "Shall we?"
Herma gloriously neighs, "Sir I can still fight sir... Just need a few bandages Sir yes sir no ma'am!"
The soldier just waves the remaining trio away, not having the patience to handle them at the moment. It seems they are on their own, they can either follow the map or go home for all he cares.
Kori gets up slowly, looking over to where the scream had come. "... Fucking idiot. What the hell is wrong with you?" But orders were orders. Shi had to find some chinese and kick the crap out of them. There were medics here already so this was NOT hir problem."
"Well like most that were transformed on P-day, I lost my incest taboo along with my humanity." Herma pointed out to Kori as if it was no big deal.
Edel scoops up her rifle and takes a deep breath before heading off once more.
Kori walks into the wilderness, glancing at the map and at the ground. "Huh. That's odd..." Shi stops to look at something on the ground. "Yep, they came through here. This way." Shi's got a trail!
Edel turns and skitters after Kori, nodding. "I'll follow your lead."
Herma lets hir ears do all the thinking... mostly because that's all the sense of direction that sie has. If only hir cock pointed magnetic north. then things would be easier. Oh well, at least sie was hearing something.
Indeed, something is heard, unfortunately it is not the sort of thing you want to hear. *ping* and then a dull thump as a grenade is tossed from behind a tree. Hmm, it looks like someone knows your coming ad doesn't approve.
Edel goes wide-eyed. "Oh no. No no no." She doesn't even wait for confirmation of what it is before she dives to the ground, arms over her ears.
Kori makes like a cat, or a monkey, and starts climbing the nearest tree. The jacket flutters with hir movements as shi scales the branches in an attempt to evade the coming explosion and retaliate with a little thrown object of hir own. Well, a crossbow bolt. More energy efficient that way and it doesn't make hir look like an outright freak with a human-ish face.
Herma does the opposite, taking to the air with a counter attack of one of hir personal favorite kinds, wing dust would be perfect for weakening the forces of dictatorships with rudamentry free markets. Their armor was now useless!
Edel yelps loudly as the bomb goes off. She remained safe, for the most part, but her ears once again take the abuse of the sound. "Nnnngh."
The as yet still hidden chinese soldier, reaches for another grenade, the heavy thumping of at least two sets of power armored feet pounding the ground from the east and west as the ambush is being sprung.
Herma the grenade propelled the pegasus thug forward, towards the enemy and sie decided to spin out into a wild swing. herma's hind legs held straight out to colide with the special forces. It would hurt like being hit with a rocket propelled ham. The little pony let out a battle cry to grab all the all the attention "SURPRISE!"
Kori lands with a loud thump, rolling along the roots of the tree. For a moment that crossbow is forgotten, the world is a little spinny. "Bleh.." Shi hisses at Herma, pointing at the sounds of the closest booted feet. "THAT WAY." This needs time, to them shi still seems pretty human in that disguise. Trench coat, shoes... Yeah, that won't last too much longer. Play injured just a little longer. Don't give them a clue that shi's not human anymore. Well genetically shi is, physically..no.
The powersuits raise their hands and in a flash the air is filled with energy pulses as Herma, a small dick laden flying pony earns a crossfire of energy weapons. And amidst it all there is another gentle *ping* and another grenade is flung into the clearing to lend more pressure to the defenders. It seems the chinese really do shoot first and ask questions later.
Edel squeaks. "Not good, not good." She backs up to a tree and pulls her bag close to dig through it for her gravity cannon.
Kori hears a thump, but more importantly the energy weapons firing and pushing back the dimness of the forest floor had more of hir attention. Shi still felt winded from the fall, but this was not going to keep hir from being the group mesmerizer. It was time to mesmerize...with a bright flash of sunburst light and four smaller flares of mystic energy. That guise shi was using was going to have to be shed along with the jacket. Can't well do hir job if shi's deliberately restricting hir little supernatural magic spark. "ALRIGHT, THAT'S ENOUGH!"
Herma dosen't bother with dodging as much as sie perhaps should, instead pulling a saber out of hir saddle bag, how could a large saber fit in a little pony's mouth or a tiny accesory bag was a mystery that perhaps broke the laws of physics and science. But it would be sharp enough to cut and poisoned enough to kill. Now to cry like an anime hero "Blade of Plauges!"
and so the loony pony attacked the power armored troops that sie thought stole the G3 Pinkie Pie that sie used as every night like a blow up doll.
And then the apparently forgoten grenade went off filling the air with flames and shrapnel. With no one taking action to be rid of it or even escape it all are subject to burns, bashing force and piercing cuts from flying debris. This likely does nothing for the way Herma is made into a target. Her sword might do some damage here and there, but they were in power armor, the poison meant nothing. How long could her hide keep her in one piece? Well the divine blessing will likely help, but Kori and Edel are closest to the blast so they likely have the most need to keep that grenade from sending them to their makers.
Edel yelps and flails, dropping her bag as she curls into a ball. Everything else is forgotten as she focuses on trying to do that neat nanite trick she discovered to reverse her injuries.
Kori flings back against the tree with a loud thump and some splintering wood. That grenade was closer this time and that HURT. "GNAAAGH!" The jacket was shredded by shrapnel and some of it got stuck in hir body, though for some odd reason it wasn't making hir bleed much. It looked kinda..gooey. Easy to remove later when the fighting stopped. Just obviously this wasn't the best time to pick metal shards from hir body. This was a better time to sow some chaos and continue mesmerising. "Keep them busy! I need to burn them internally!" Yes, shi needed to get that summoning spell started.
Herma Cursed as hir sword was doing nothing, and these commies were laughing at hir for god's sake! Being pissed off and reckless, Herma decided to do different nanite trick when sie drinks down infection vials. And began to turn in to a Giant Robot of apartment complex size in a swimsuit with an awesome pair of orange shades. "Hmmmm Who do I step on first! BwaHaHahHaaHaa!! OOOhh I think I see someone who lobbed a Grenade from up here."
The lone scout comes around the tree finally, his submachine gun raised as he sweeps back and forth looking for a target. That target becomes the giant robot as he jettison his clip and load armor piercing rounds. Of course his power armored allies were hardly sitting still, their weapons orienting on the giant robot so the emerging flame throwers may prime before unleashing a buring death at the fleshy center of the metal shell.
Edel whines softly, reaching for her bag again. "This is stupid, why did I come here. Never again." She stays low to the ground, creeping further away so as not to be hit by anymore stray things. Once she has taken up position behind another tree, she finishes retrieving her gravity cannon from the bag. "Ruined my clothes, too..."
"EXTERMINATE! RESISTANCE IS FEW-TILE!" Herma sceamed with a very fuzzy speaker that's sound quality rivaled a McDonalds drive in. Sie smashes hir head to crush one of the chinese, lamenting that sie couldn't infect them and make them hir ponies.
Kori shifts hir eyes briefly to the commotion kicking up from the surrounding trees. More gunfire focusing on herma. Well, the whacko had a knack for grabbing attention. Fine. As long as it kept them from noticing the hole forming in the fabric of reality in the sky above, that was fine. These China Men were gonna know what it felt like to have their souls set on fire soon enough. They just needed to be kept busy a little longer. Ra is not happy. No he isn't. Oh, by the by, she's speaking in a form of dead Coptic. Arcane in nature itself, but hard to hear over all this gunfire.
The power suited chinese take abuse amzingly well, though one does start sparking and arcing, but shortly that unit becomes more powerfulas damaged systems are rerouted from defense into power. Giant robot or not, too much longer under the flames and Herma was going to roast in her own shell. And certainly the lone gnman with the powersuits was making use of those armor piercing rounds, but the other girls are forgotten.
Edel brings the device up to her shoulder, still grumbling. Given the area-effecting nature of the device, she wasn't too concerned with picking out any particular target. She only needed their general location, which, given all the noise, she had. She fires the device up, hoping the sudden change in gravity would disrupt them at the least, pin them down at the best.
Herma Bit down on one the those crazy flamer men, taking great pride in making sure that this guy felt like a pre owned doggy toy! Herma's teeth turned into buzzsaws, and as sure as Monday morning was made of suck sie could taste some blood!
BUUUUUUUUUUZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!
Kori looks up at the sky, directly into the hole in said sky. While the chinese are distracted, a large beam of sunlight pierces through the tear in the sky. It smacks into hir directly, lighting hir up and burning away what was left of hir clothes. Shi was supercharged now and the way shi looked at those Chinese power armors was best worded as unbridled fury. Those eyes, previously green, were now orbs of Ra's flames. Hir hands the instrument of his wrath. And the egyptian heiroglyphs that appeared around hir eyes? that wasn't natural either. But it wasn't technological, hell no.
The now nude dual-gendered and multi-breasted 'human' look-a-like tore forward in a raw burst of speed and agility, seeking out hir targets to abuse with surprising flaming uppercuts. Those fires in hir hands may not damage the suits, but it wasn't the physical kind of fire to begin with. This was fire that burns at the soul. A direct taste of Ra's divine power through a Disciple of Bastet. These China Men are going to be even LESS happy after this.
The flare of light causes the weapons fire of the chinese soldiers to become erratic as their nightvision blinds them and takes a moment to switch off for another mode that isn't light knives in the brain. This is shortly followed by mechanically transmitted screams as the pilots within the suits are engulfed in mystic fire.
The lone soldier too was briefly blinded but was just about to return fire when he too is engulfed in fire. Then a scream from outside of the immediate clearing marks a sniper in a tree as he is immolated.
Looks like Kori got lucky...but these guys are still moving, even if they are temporarily distracted.
And then, with the light fading, the oppressive weight of the graviton burst kicks in, flailing mecha limbs slow and shots target the ground more than anything, joints sparking under the strain. The massive robot attacking one of the power suits, caught in the force is smashed to the ground and the unprotected soldier shrieks as he is forcefully put out of his burning mess, but breaks an ankle as his body buckles under the sudden weight.
Edel leans out from behind her tree, a hand slipping to her thigh to retrieve one of her throwing knives. She sets her eyes on the unprotected soldier and throws the weapon. Silent, and hard to trace in the darkness.
Sulua heard calls for battle, gunfire and explosions... she couldn't get there fast enough. Slithering fast through the forest, the chimeric, fourarmed mutant keeps low to the ground. She currently only has her Laser Rifle ready, but she's keeping a hand on her sawn off shotgun... The screams draw her attention. She hasn't seen power working power armor in ages. Holy shit, this whole war thing is really real.Taking cover behind a tree, Sulua aims at one of the Flaming Armored men and takes a shot, hoping to either put him down or at least distract them from the crazy flaming person fighting them.
The chaos on the battle is finally taking it's toll on those present, with Herma down, one of the chinese soldiers dead and one of the powersuits looking pretty bad, the remaining suit shouts something in mandarin and a covered trench is shoved open in the ground revealing four more regular soldiers! These immediately aim between the the two power suits at Kori and Edel's general location and open up with automatic fire. While the sniper is finally recovered enough that he is once more taking aim to fire.
the target by 10.0% percent for 2.0 rounds. Has diminishing returns. |
\_Has a 100% chance of inflicting Haste at a magnitude of 5.0 for 2.0 |
rounds
Biting back a curse, Sulua switches targets and goals... she rushes to the fennec she sees falling, firing at the wounded sniper. IF she gets there, she's going to to try and get the fennec back into cover... hopefulling putting a tree between them ant the bullets.
Kori tried not to listen to the screams. That's the part that always sucked about letting Ra burn things indirectly. But this wasn't the time to think about someone else's pain, this was a battle zone and shi can't ignore a trench opening up with more soldiers in it...and their guns. "Goddamnit!" Shi was already a bit winded from a fall, and then from beingslammed into a tree twice by grenades. These weren't friendlies shi's dealing with. This required reaction time and quick reflexes.
Lucky for Kori, those reflexes were still quite good. Shi sprinted /up/ the tree and leapt for the trench, bullets whizzing by. Two of those rounds make their mark, leaving behind red splotches that hir nanites already started to deal with. The counterattack continued regardless of the bullet sprays due to momentum and gravity. These were noral soldiers, and unlike the power armors, they weren't protected against the nanites. Which, in hir opinion, was a double-edged sword. One shi had tto risk as shi shifted back to hir natural state and started squeezing hir redonculous breasts, spraying the trench in slippery lioness milk. Mud would result, of course, but it would be full of infectious nanites too.
The gravity cannon falls from her grip as she takes several bullets. "Damn." Is all that she really says as she falls back, landing partially behind the tree she was using for cover earlier.
Sulua really care about hitting the soldier, only that he NOT be able to aim at the mutant she saw go down. She doesn't glance at the man when she reaches the fennec, she simply grabs her with one pair of arms, and hauls her to better cover, putting a thick tree between both lanes of fire. to them. "Hey, Names Sulua. I know we just met, but do me a favor and don't go into shock. I know it's really tempting, but please don't go into shock while people are still shooting at us."
Edel grunts as she's pulled away. Not feeling much like talking, she keeps her conversation short. "Edel." She gives a weak nod of affirmation. The nanites did some work, making some of the more dire effects not as immediate of an issue... But she's certainly in no condition to do anything, as is.
The sniper, whom had been taking aim at Kori's heart is suddenly struck by a glancing blow of a laser, but struck as he is, his aim is utterly lost, though he manages not to fall out of the tree.
The trench becomes chaos as three of the four chinese are struck with the milk and begin rapidly taking on feline features, rendered useless for battle as pain and confusion takes over. The fourth man pulls the pin on a grenade and drops it, then begins scrambling to escape the trench. Unfortunately the milk mud causes him to slip several times and then it all becomes a moot point as the grenade reduces all four men into flying body parts and gore.
The power suited men however are back online and three seperate arms come around to orient on Koribefore opening fire with pulse lasers.
Working faster than she ever has, Sulua identifies Edel's wounds. "Clean shots... no need to remove bullets..." She quickly digs into her medkit and with surprisingly professional movements, cleans the wounds and staunches the bleeding, quickly bangching the wounds. "Chems dull the pain and seal the bleeding... but you can't move yet..." Sulua sighs. SHe doesn't usually do this, but... gunfire. SHe unclips the top half of her armor. "You need nutrients."
Edel scowls deeply, clenching her jaw. "Don't you have anything less... Organic? I'm not too keen on this alternative."
Kori lands in the trench shortly after the grenade goes off, tucking into a ball and rolling on the ground. Mudd starts gtting in hir fur, but it didn't bother hir. What DID bother hir however was hir recovery and sprint along the trench with that one chinese suit taking shots at hir. One missed, making a smoking patch of dirt in the wall in hir wake. But the other smacks hir right in the side below the ribs. The impact hurt, but the laser mysteriously bounces off and into the ground. Of course both impact sites are blackened and smoke from the heat and it staggered hir personally, but it otherwise didn't seem to be very effective. Being in the trench unfortunately also meant shi could not line up attacks too well even with hir height advantage over standard humans. That..was inconvenient. Shi just had to grit hir teeth and bear it. Oh, and deal with hir previous injuries. Yay Nurse! Believe it or not this also was giving hir the wierded..boner. From blood redirection rather than getting aroused. Seriously, shi was not in an amerous mood right now.
"You think I like this either?" Sulua glares down at Edel, her eye hard. "Unfortunately, I can't make protein bars or fancy insta-heal goo, and I can't take any MORE time to do better with needle and thread! You need nutrients to move, and if we do NOT move, there is a chance that we will DIE. That chance gets bigger the longer you spend scowling at me! So Drink Dammit!"
The power suits are perturbed, but continue to fire on the busty feline, bolts apparently striking her fur and redirecting in showers of charged particles and force but not piercing and destroying her as planned.
While they keep the pressure on, the sniper finally recovers enough to bring his rifle to bear once more, targetting Kori's back, his armor piercing rounds prepped to give her fur a real challenge. He was greatly doubting that she'd ever been penetrated by anything that came out of something this big and hard. With her moving in the trench things became difficult to target, but he was determined to make this happen.
Edel grumbles and sits up, slowly. "Will a bar work? I have one in my bag... If not... Do we at least have a cup?" She reaches for her duffle bag, dragging it closer.
"They have to be specially made with nanites and for the love of all that is holy there are people SHOOTING at us!" Sulua shakes Edel pointely, "Now is SO not the time to be squeamish, and so help me god if you do not start drinking NOW I will Tie you up and force it down your throat!"
Edel closes her eyes and sighs. "Fine, fine! Let's just get this over with, then." She leans a bit forward, propping herself up with her elbows.
Apparently Edel still seems to be thinking that Sulua is being understanding. She's wrong. THe chimeric mutant grabs the back of Edels head and immidiatly smashes her lips over the flowery nipple. Nectarlike, thick, fluid quickly fills the fennecs mouth. "Swallow, Swallow, Swallow..." If the fennec looked up, she'd see Sulua looking around frantically to spot any other attackers or soldiers taking aim.
Kori hears a gunshot from behind and hir instincts scream at hir to get down. It was a good thing shi listened. The shot smacked into the trench wall, embedding quite a ways into the dirt. That had to be anti-peronnel rounds if shi couldn't see it in that hole. Granted dirt was soft, but there were roots and rocks in it too. Still, that Sniper was not going to like what he see now. Now that hir body's healing has kickstarted, shi was feeling back on top of hir game. And the first target was that sniper behind hir now that hir hearing and eyesight were back to superhuman. "You picked the wrong bitch to piss off, china-boy. I hope you like being a lion-bitch, because unless you're suited up like your buddy there, you're MINE." Shi didn't know if the sniper understood a word of it, but shi didn't care. There was just one thing in hir mind at the moment, psychological torture. And hot torture at that.
To do this, Kori didn't climb out of the trench. Shi FLEW out (Flight merit), self ignited (Fiery hide) and leaving a fire trail in hir wake through the air. Shi could guess very well where that shot came from and, unfortunately for the Sniper, hir intention was not just to ruin his day, but...well. Use an old nanite gene shi inherited from a Margay. Yup.. Give this guy a new home. And ultimately give Zephyr another Chinese guy to interrogate. But there was still that power suited guy.
Edel chokes on the sudden flow of liquid, but swallows it as fast as she can to get it out of her mouth. "Engh. Thanks," she says as she leans back, wiping her face in her sleeve. Though it may not have been the favored course of action for either of them, she was at least trying to be polite about it. She grimaces a little and shakes her head before peering around.
Kori peeks over the edge of the trench, looking for that annoying power suit. "Hey fatass! Have you heard of the Dragon Language? Here's a sample for you! Yol Tor Shul!" Flamethrower time!
The power armors never let up their hail of laser shots, though by some amazing bad luck they manage to miss her all the way around. Seeing the situation grow desperate the pair stop firing and each aim a hand at one another, firing cables between them, they link systems to perform a higher power attack. Unfortunately the one with a damaged arm's unit malfunctions and the damaged arm explodes, rocking the unit, but he continues to feed power into the other whom begins charging up a power shot when they are bathed in flame. Alarms go off within the suits as systems heat up and more critical failures take place in the damaged suit, clearly it wont be combat capable much longer.
There is a small beep as the sniper achieves optimum aim, his gauss rifle bucking in his grip as it sends a miniture missile-like round streaking through the air at Kori's chest, set to blow her heart right out her back if he manages to hit.
Kori hears a gunshot from behind and hir instincts scream at hir to get down. It was a good thing shi listened. The shot smacked into the trench wall, embedding quite a ways into the dirt. That had to be anti-peronnel rounds if shi couldn't see it in that hole. Granted dirt was soft, but there were roots and rocks in it too. Still, that Sniper was not going to like what he see now. Now that hir body's healing has kickstarted, shi was feeling back on top of hir game. And the first target was that sniper behind hir now that hir hearing and eyesight were back to superhuman. "You picked the wrong bitch to piss off, china-boy. I hope you like being a lion-bitch, because unless you're suited up like your buddy there, your ass and body are MINE. YOU'RE MY BITCH NOW!" Shi didn't know if the sniper understood a word of it, but shi didn't care. There was just one thing in hir mind at the moment, psychological torture. And very hot torture at that.
To do this, Kori didn't climb out of the trench. Shi FLEW out, self ignited with fire and leaving a fire trail in hir wake through the air. Shi could guess very well where that shot came from and, unfortunately for the Sniper, hir intention was not just to ruin his day, but...well. Use an old nanite gene shi inherited from a Margay. And it worked out that the speed with which shi retaliated was just too much for the poor sniper to deal with because shi was very quickly within range and flipping around to bring hir groin to bear. Hir legs spread, hir female genitalia bares and deceptively small for what was about to happen.
That sniper would not get to see sunlight again as with a loud wet SPLUP, Kori lands on target and uses the momentum of hir flight to slam him right up into hir waiting womb where he is going to stay for the next week. Nanites were already kicking in to dissolve his hardware and clothes in preperation to make him into a male bastet lion...and hir new bitch. Zephyr would so enjoy getting to talk to him when he's done 'cooking'. Asusming he absorbs any english form hir before then. But the bad news was that shi was now quite gravid and waddling around in an attempt to find cover.
Sulua wasn't a particuarly brilliant engineer, but she knew enough that whatever was being charged by the armors wasn't something she wanted aimed at her or her allies. She also knew well enough that missfires caused more damage than sabotage... Her eyes glowed white hot for a moment, and then a bright beam of light shot from her face directly into the helmet of the power armor preparing to fire the laser attack. It wasn't nearly as damaging as Kori's fire... but it held a force behind it meant to disorient and stun... hopefully at a bad time! "Edel! Shoot the other one!" Sulua shouts to the mobile fennec. She braces herself and keeps up the pressure on the beam...
Edel hauls herself into a kneeling position and takes up her laser rifle. Seeing as the other suit is already doing pretty poorly, she takes aim at the cables connecting the two suits, instead, and fires.
The scream of the chinese sniper is a haunting sound as it fades to nothing inside the nightmarish cooch that just devoured him. His rifle clattering to the ground discarded, pulses several times before bursting into flaming chunks.
The two remaining soldiers turn, trying to track Kori one providing a tringulation angle for targeting whilst the other brings that particle vacuuming arm around just in time to fir...no he gets blasted in the face and emits a shriek of dismay as he stumbles back toward the trench. The damaged suit is jerked as he tries to maintain their connection and stop the other from falling despite the constant force of the beam of light. Reeling in their docking umbilicals, he is just at the point where their hands are about to meet a beam crosses between the gap severing the connection. Though in a frantic effort both men reach back, one using one hand, the other using both....and they catch on, hands meeting and one hand grasping the torso plate of the other....And then the weapon goes off.
The resulting blast completely obliterates the torso of the damaged suit, shredding part of the armor of the second and causing both to topple into a ruiined heap in the trench. Screaming can be heard from that direction, but soon it turns to gargling and choking, then silence.
Sulua winces away from the explosion, then sags, rubbing her eyes furiously. "Aaaaaaugh, my EYES! I hate using that with solid skin!" SHe moans, her other pair of hands rubbing her temples.
Kori gets behind a tree, hir movements slowed to the waddle of a heavily pregnant person. Hiding didn't matter too much longer though, because silence soon fell in the field again. And there was still a couple of problems to deal with. First, Herma. Second, everyone else. Injuries, burns, things like that. Now shi's glad shi trained as a field medic and not a doctor. "Everyone in one piece?" Hir murring voice reaches out from behind the tree. "Someone have Herma? We need to get out of here before more of those things show up. And I'm too heavy to fly right now."
Edel glances around the tree, pushing her goggles up. "I'm... Fine, yeah. Fine enough." She stares at Herma. "I can't move her. She's too large." She begins packing her gravity cannon back into her bag.
Edel edges towards the trench, keeping her rifle at the ready, and her ears alert. "They are dead, right?"
Kori starts waddling out from hiding with both arms holding up the massive squirming belly of hirs. "The systems overloaded, shorted out, and killed the occupants. Wih so much damage, the nanites will get in there very soon and do who knows what with them, perhaps turn their bodies into grey mist for other nanites to use as conversion mass. We can't stay here either way. More Chinese will come looking for this party and we don't want to be here for that."
"Nnng..." Sulua blinks her eyes open, then glances over to Kori. "I'm not hit at all... lemme check you over. I'ma doctor." The twisted mutant gives Kori a cheeky smile. For the first time, her voice stands out in the quiet... she has a heavy southern californian surfer drawl. "Not sure 'big, metal, and unconsious' here... we might need to call in backup to move her."
slowly makes her way back to the three, careful not to turn her back on the trench. She pushes her goggles back up onto her forehead. "Thank you both for your work." She dips into a polite bow. "I certainly would not have made it alone."
Kori eyes Sulua with a tilt of hir head and a quirked ear. "Aside from probably having a sore back in the morning, I think I'll be okay. And maybe smelling like burnt fur. Won't stop you though. Just stay away from my groin. I haven't had to do this for months and I'd like to keep occupancy in there to a minimum. ... But we still have to get Mis Roboto out of here. Get some jeep out here to lift her and get me back to camp. We've got a new prisoner to queastion, assuming his mind can take the strain of what he's going through for the next week."
SUlua glances over Kori and nods. "Yeah... you'll keep for the mo-, but head to a medic once we get back." She begins dailing on her comlink to the camp. "I think we're all done here, I'll call in the camp and get us a ride back." as she's waiting for the camp to pick up though, she can't help but look over Kori's squirming belly. "So..." she begins offhandedly. "If I did want to inspect you, I'd have to wait for at least a week?"
The comms open up with the sharp hiss of a hydra answering. <This is base camp...your signature marks you as one of the scouting teams...what is this a mayday call, extraction request or intel update?>.
That's right, they could have called for help at any time through out all of that.
Edel glances between the two and shakes her head a little. "A ride sounds good." She inspects her clothes, frowning at the holes and tears that the night of battle have given her outfit.
Kori sighs quietly. "Yes, and there's a reason. This time, I had no real choice. It was either kill him, get shot, or capture him. He'd pop a cienide pill if I tried to capture him any other way. And I don't want to carry every Tom, Rick, Harry, Jane, or whoever that asks to check me out down there. Even if I CAN."
Kori murrs, "Besides, ot everything has to involve sex, and as a doctor you should be rather impersonal when you do look at me. Thus the warning to stay away from down there unless hormones get into your head."
"Extraction sir, and intel. We have a downed four story robot in stasis and a few wounded... all stable for the moment. We met a small party of seven enemies, two in powered armor. We've captured one of the regulars, and the power armor has been destroyed." Sulua quickly lists off thier co-ordinates. Then she glances back at Kori. She seems... tired, all of a sudden. "Yer right. Sorry miss..." she speaks softly so the radio doesn't pick it up. "I don't even know your name. I'm just..." she stops and looks back to the phone.
<Request being processed, wait one.>
There is silence on the line before the hydra comes back on, the sound of a helicopter warming up in the background.
<We've got a black hawk inbound to your coordinates, just sit tight and you'll all be drinking coffee and debriefing in no time. Base camp over and out.>
The line goes dead, though the promise of a distant chopper ride is assured.
Kori waves it off for the moment. Literally. "Kori. Zephyr incorperated. Former security. More of a field scout and field medic now. Depending on how you look at it. Just.. Worry about it after we've gotten back, been debriefed, and had some rest."
Edel snickers a little. "You're both doctors and medics? Interesting combat team, then. I'm a mechanic. No soldier experience at all, for me." She shrugs and shoulders her bag. "I'm Edel, or Eddie, if you prefer that."
Sulua nods, and gives Kori another, more genuine smile. "Sulua, and my bedical liscence is totally legit, even if I only got it last week. Technically promethian, but Zephy doesn't care much who does sweeper work in the city." Sulua stretches all four of her arms. "Man, after this, kicking ferals in the face will be a relief!" She settles back on the ground away from the corpses to await their ride back.
Sulua nods, and gives Kori another, more genuine smile. "Sulua, and my medical lisence is totally legit, even if I only got it last week.

She settles back on the ground away from the corpses to await their ride back.
Kori murrs, "Field medic. Difference. I do best in groups like this. Confuse them and keep my group on its feet. Of course I can't treat more than one person at a time, so I'm limited that way. But its a pretty big bonus. Oh.. It also meant having to be a midwife in a few cases. Some people don't listen and get into fights with ferals only to go into labor mid-fight. Can't pick when or you give birth which makes picking the where that much harder. Still..."
Soon enough the whine of the massive black hawk chopper comes overhead, tow cables and cargo hooks being used to secure Herma before the party is loaded up and flown off toward the base camp, with sucesses like this, the chinese army would stay blind and hesitant, unable to figure out what forces were awaiting them.
