Maddox chuckled and pointed towards a crate on one of the tables. "Open that up. Contains both charges. Be careful, you don't want to set them off here in a enclosed space."
[QUOTE=Viper123_SWE;50498628]Maddox chuckled and pointed towards a crate on one of the tables. "Open that up. Contains both charges. Be careful, you don't want to set them off here in a enclosed space."[/QUOTE]
[b]"You mean like on the ship?"[/b][i] Johannes goes over and opens the crate, rummaging around and pulling out the wonderful explosives. He slips them into his chest rig's pouches and grins.[/i]
While the rest of the team readies for the away team, Amelia walks into the kitchen, having decided to not partake in the mission. She peeks inside, and sees Alex making Hulk Hogan poses. The veins, the raw physique, the intense facial expression. The words, "Bruthur..." comes out as a grizzled muscly macho voice.
"Dayum," she says out loud, sucking in her drool.
Abraxas stood beside a table, watching the rest gear up. He folded his arms and stared.
[QUOTE]Dayum[/QUOTE]
Alex jumped at the sound of that and spun around real quick. "How long have you been standing there? How much of that did you see?" He said, obviously embarased.
Amelia jumped, letting go of the doorway and falling forwards, taking three innocent plates in the process.
"Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry." she apologizes, getting up. She brushes herself off.
"I've been watching long enough..." grinning, "You looked good," she teases.
"I was just imitating an old entertainer from Terra's past. That's all." He looked down then back up. "The reason why I'm shirtles is because it was hot in here."Amelia's expresion made him ralized that there was no point in making anymore excuses. "This does not leave this room. Got it?"
"Did anybody else feel that or was it only me?"
Frosty said to everyone else in the armory.
[quote]"This does not leave this room. Got it?"[/quote]
"Your secret's safe with me, buddy." she nudges his chest with her elbows. "So... know anyone else that isn't going on the away team?"
"My senses have told me your amnesia arc is almost done." Abraxas deadpanned to Frosty
"You, me, Bucky, Janos, Yuga, Vakarus, Ahaz and Harliim probably. Although I'm sure Yuga,Vakarus and Harliim will be providing tactical support for the team."

Amy looked at Frosty. "I didn't feel anything. You ok, Frosty?"
[i]Johannes glances over at Frosty.[/i][b] "Do you mean my palpable excitement for being trusted with high explosives? Yeah, I can feel it."[/b][i] Johannes subtly shifts, any man would know what he was doing.[/i]
[QUOTE]"Did anybody else feel that or was it only me?"[/QUOTE]
"Probably a UGC ship or something passing by. Relax." said Taylor, glancing over towards him. She looked amongst the others. "Alright, if everyone is ready, lets get going. Frosty, stay here on the ship and be ready to launch your fighter as soon as we take out those AA guns." she finally said, before turning and heading out of the armory. Valkyrie followed behind her, carrying a bag on her back with random tools to make her look like a legit technician. If any were lost, she could easily replace them since they were rather cheap.
[What are we gonna do when it comes to Sledge pushing the cart?]
"Well that sucks." she pouts. The machine dispenses her hot chocolate, complete with three fluffy marshmallows. She takes a sip, then sighs relief. "Dis is good." her cheeks blush from the warm comfort.
Amelia then walks towards a table, takes out her tablet, and starts playing some vidya games, taking a swig of hot coco every now and then.
"No. For a moment I felt like I... like I was in the eye of a hurricane, and everything was being swept away around me."
Frosty rubbed his forehead for a moment.
"I don't know. Maybe i'm starting to feel anxious that we are going up against a proper army, and not a bunch of criminals this time. Not that I want to back out, though. I'm with this until the end."
[QUOTE]"Frosty, stay here on the ship and be ready to launch your fighter as soon as we take out those AA guns."[/QUOTE]
"Understood."
Amy followed Taylor out of the armory.

Alex sat down next to Amelia "Well, if the others aren't your fancy, you can always talk to me."
((Sega could control Sledge or, if given verbal confirmation, anyone of us could. Although I'd prefer it if Sledge wasn't controlled by a third party.))
As the group left the armory, Maddox looked at Koval. "If you watch my back I'll watch yours."
As they proceeded into the cargo bay, Valkyrie made a sharp whistle noise. What answered was a robotic bark from in the corner. The Cerberus drone. "Lets go, Astro." she said simply, glancing back at it as it ran by some boxes and slid to a stop next to her. She had managed to get a few things done to it before they arrived, including automating it. It should help out a bit during the mission.
Markus had lowered his hood and face mask to put on a raspirator, a worn and by old design at that.
He had the adequate clothing for this type of environment, so he decided to just put it on for efficiency.
He screwed in the filter and activated it, taking a deep, satisfied breath.
He slung the rifle from his back and held it with on hand and the butt resting on the floor.
He took out his bayonet and positioned it on the railing at the muzzle when Maddox spoke up.
"Why don' ya fuck off with yer new mate refrigerator, boyscout? If anyones gonna need watchin 's that cunt." he muttered, the respirator making his voice muffled and hazy.
He clicked the bayonet in place rather forcefully while glaring at Johannes.
When the team arrived in the hangar he stood idly, holding the weapon string over on shoulder and inspecting the armband. Sympathizers with a regime, what poor souls they must be.
((No idea about Bathacker. I'm trying to get in contact with him but he might not be available to Sledge up this mission. If that's the case, I guess he's anyone's character for a bit. I'll update you all on this matter later.))
[quote]Muramasa, this is Checkered. At your current vector, you'll be over a gravel factory with an open yard which can accommodate your craft. Deploy your crew there, if possible. A gohva agent is waiting on the ground in a nearby phosphorus processing plant. Be sure to wear face and lung protection while on the planet's surface.[/quote]
[quote]Rask, here. We're doin' this like last time, keh? Away team goes in, ship gets back off the ground, stays airborne and mobile. At least that's what I'd advise, far be it from me to stop you from yer dreams of bein' cratered in a gravel pit...[/quote]
[i]Johannes laughs heartily, he looks Markus square in the eye, his visor white, an unsettling blank visage. The laughter almost sounds cruel, the vocoder in his helmet stripping away his accent and any inflection in his voice. (Think Combine)[/i][b] "Judging by our sparring match, I think it is you who will need your back watched. Not me."[/b]
Yuga had returned to the bridge when she was contacted by checkers and Rask.
"Understood, I will relay the information to the leader of the ground team." she replied while writing a short message to Taylor regarding their on-surface contact.
She then replied to Rask, "Yes. We're going to deploy the away team and then lift off. We will be almost stationary, hovering in the air while waiting for our signal. Should any officials contact us we will inform them that we are here to acquire industrial waste and forgot to reserve a dock spot."
...
Markus would not let himself be intimidated, but he would not reply.
He knew that even the greatest opponent could be felled if one tooi enough time to observe weaknesses.
When that was done you would just have to lie in wait, patiently waiting for the perfect moment when only a single, well placed strike would suffice.

((Going to bed, sorry if something happens when I'm gone where I would be required))
((Just so you guys know, I was probably going to make Owen stay on the ship for the mission))
[i]Johannes stood there quietly waiting for the mission to begin. He was thinking about the explosives he was given, and a [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qF4RCOcz9ow]particular song[/url] was playing through his mind. He was also thinking about quiche.[/i]
Hariim gets set up for his probable role in the mission, and wonders at how his technological expertise might come into play. He decides to ask Yuga where she needs him anyways, for posterity. "Captain, you have orders for me on this mission? I presume you'll want me onboard for tech and tactical support."
----------------------------------------------------
Elsewhere, Bucky is running through the ship checking every offensive and defensive system on the ship, and getting every hatch secured and locked that needs to be. She wants her baby ready and able for any kind of combat it might see.
I'm sorry for asking but. am i late to join the party.
[Read the OP, mate. Never too late to join. The trick is finding a good way to introduce your character.]
Amy gave Taylor a concerned look. "I'm worried that those two might tear each other apart if nobody is keeping an eye on them." She said, pointing her thumb at Markus and Johannes.
Maddox shook his head. "Alright then, convict." He went over to Taylor and Amy. "Team looks ready. We might have a future issue with Johannes and Markus tho."
[QUOTE]"I'm worried that those two might tear each other apart if nobody is keeping an eye on them."[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE]"Team looks ready. We might have a future issue with Johannes and Markus tho."[/QUOTE]
Taylor looked over towards Markus and Johannes. "Yeah...watch 'em closely. If they come to blows, let me know so I can throw both their asses in the brig." she said, with a glance between Amy and Mad. "We can't have two of our own men at each other's throats out in the field. Mission can go wrong really quickly if something happens."
Valkyrie spoke up nearby, though barely audible. "You'd know somethin' about that, Tay-Tay." she muttered, before a smile slowly crawled across her face. Taylor simply ignored her little remark. No time for tempers to flare up. They had a job to do. "We head out as soon as the ship touches down. We have a contact to meet near the drop point."
Vakarus observed the landing site throught the many cameras and sensors at his disposal. He turned to Yuga.
"Yuga'atvan, our point of entry is clear."
