"Dammit Iska! I've had it with your thirst for blood, I've had it with all this bullshit, everyone STOP!"
[Body on the floor, it can be a puppet{
Lion commanded Gabriel to move Varn's body into a defensive position next to Iska and Pippin.
"Spread out!" He yelled to all the soldiers and to the crew before activating a sonar-like system meant to locate Folter.
[Do a roll Doom.]
Pippin backed up slowly. "Shit, Lion, we can still resolve this, figure out what we're going to do."
Iska gritted her teeth while aiming the MG around, slowly scanning the room for Folter.
"Sadly, I don't think talking will do much good here" Viper said in an disappointed tone as it watched for Folter's next shrike.
"Well maybe if we could get Iska to calm the fuck down!"

Mini Roll Critical Failure[highlight][1][/highlight]: Right before Rask can shoot his rocket, a sound off came by, a stray bullet gazing through his throat.

Mini Roll Critical Success[9]: The solar device was able to track Folter's movement, seconds later he turned off his cloaked. "Oh gee you've found me, grats I guess."
Folter stared at all of them and waited for a move "Come on, you wanted revenge for your Captain, now you're simply getting it. Go ahead shoot me. This one's on the house."
Lion aimed at Folter. "Take us to Sertum. You and the fourth auditor never killed anyone from the crew. We're not after you."
"Mariahlus? What about the others? Zane and Dirge?" Folter asked with increased tension
Rask was floored by the attack, dropping the launcher and gripping his neck with both hands. "[Medic!]"
Gataksa clambered over to Virin, but stopped as she realized that there was a large gap in the coverage between herself and where Rask lay wounded. She froze up, even as Virin urged her to move on, promising to cover her. Again, Rask called for help, this time more desperately.
Instead, Neasha, having regained her courage, scrambled up the slope toward Rask while under fire. Once she was there, she pulled his VRI out and stuffed it into her beltline. He looked up at her, confused, as she practically ignored him and the blood which was running down the length of his arms. Instead, she grabbed hold of the rocket launcher herself and attempted to do the same thing which he had just tried.
"Zane and Dirge both killed members from the crew. The former did so after refusing to step out of the way however my point still stands."
He waved at the crew. "I can't speak for crew or brothers and sisters in arms but I can promise you that I won't attack you should you step out of the way. It's your call, really."
Folter simply stared at Lion, quite confirming both were already dead. Silence grew.
Silence grew.
"Heh, that's it eh? You wish to kill him all in name of revenge? That's cool."
"... you know I can't tell what's worse, if you all are with HarkArk or acting alone. The latter may be... worse."
"...everywhere you go, you cause destruction whether you are aware or not."
"...now I've realized what you came here to do..."
"... I can't afford to not care anymore." Folter muttered. In a quick flash, several of HarkArk soldiers died in seconds, Folter was gone from his original spot. He appeared next to the group. Standing motionless
"Well I'm sorry but when a shadowy organization starts attacking people and kills your friend, what's the appropriate response?"
"Just revenge? We aren't here just for revenge. Have you forgotten about a thing called the Oracle?", Dwan said. "We're here to destroy it. The power held within it should never fall into the hands of mortals. Even Saw realized this.", he stated, as his hand was on the howitzer's trigger.
Folter ran towards Pippin, charging at him
Viper remained at the ready for anything either side would pull against the team. Constantly switching between both the Privateer captain and the Auditor during Lion's plead.
The Sanghvi kept tack of Folter's movements as he slaughtered the several Privateers that stood between him and and crew, standing next towards them.
Viper held it's ground while Pippin, Dwan and Lion tried to convince him to put down his weaponry.
Watching his every movements in case of anything as Viper's teammates words fell onto dead ears.
When the Auditor began his charge towards Pippin, Viper leaped into action. Attempting to grapple him before he could even reach the native engineer with his iron claw.
Iska noticed Viper grabbling Pippin out of harms way and let out a new salvo against Folter.

Mini Roll[5]: She attempted the same thing, making sure the soldiers can die like vermin. The rocket launched but the soldiers anticipated it's arrival, dodging before it exploded.

Mini Roll[4]: Folter immediately changed target and saw Viper try to grapple him before. But he was too fast. Folter grabbed him by its claws and talons and slowly threw him to the ground, causing a big crack in the floor.
Folter shrugged. "You can't falter this Folter eh?"
[QUOTE=Radley;49276054]Iska noticed Viper grabbling Pippin out of harms way and let out a new salvo against Folter.[/QUOTE]
Mini Roll[2]: Folter once again gained speed, switching his target to Iska within a second. He dodged the shoot while closing in. In a blur Iska could feel one of her eyes clawed out in a flash. Folter shrugged. "Eye honestly expected you to try and tag me." He said while showing one of her eye.
Iska stumbled backwards slightly and gribbed her face while letting out a painful screech.
Taking her hand down she used her remaining eye to see that her hand was covered in blood.
Iska realized she would have to back off to study Folters moves before doing anything more.
Iska pulled out a smoke grenade and dropped it at her feet. Walking backwards and with the smoke spreading she fired blindly into it where she guessed Folter would be standing.
The armor moved towards the helmet on the ground. After picking it up it covered Varn's disfigured face and surprisingly it spoke with a cold, artificial and yet mocking voice. "Visual on target standing in the way of objective. Designated code name 'unfunny cloacker '. Evaluating humor levels. Lacking in every key areas. Suggestions. Stick to telling metaphorical stories. "
Mercury did a double take. "Did the AI in Varn's armor just diss this guy? "
The armor stood still. "Query. If artificial intelligence can understand your lack of a funny bone, why continue with your pointless imitation of a comedian? Awaiting orders, Lion "
"Oh simply because I must find another way to express my emotions." Folter answered.
"...you don't understand do you?"
"...i won't let you kill them. so long as we play this game until you get frustrated.
"...the least thing i can do."
Viper slowly picked itself off from the ground, trying to force it's way through the crumbled concrete that is piling onto it's battered shell.
Disoriented but not out yet. Viper picked itself up out of the destroyed ground and scanned for any potential weakness in his armor as he finished landing his strike onto Iska.
The Sanghvi took an moment to breath before firing off the series of shells from the launchers attracted it's fame to give it and it's comrades more time before the Auditor could attack again.
Viper could easily see through cloud of chaff and smoke, due to it's thermal sight and it's implant sensors being programmed to the chaff's make up along with the rest of the squad able to ignore the chaff's electromagnetic interference.
The Sanghvi then proceed to prime it's LWA Solari to be ready to fire when the next opportunity rises.
Pippin held out a hand to help up Viper
Lion used the sonar to scan and engage Folter while giving Gabriel orders to cover Iska.
Dwan, whilst still holding the howitzer's trigger, decided to toy with Folter. "Hey, you think anyone outside of the Crimus knows of your second power source? The one that isn't the Oracle?!", he spoke out.

Mini Roll Critical Failure[highlight][1][/highlight]: "Blindly shooting at smoke won't do much when your enemy is standing behind you."
Iska immediately turned behind her, seeing a waving visible Folter before he sucker punched her, he caught a tooth too.

Mini Roll[2]: The solar device attempted to find Folter but to no avail. Folter cloaked out pulled up a trick up his own, emitting a highly sensitive noise that shattered the device. "Jeez, Leo if you really wanted to see me so much why didn't you say so?"
Folter decloaked for the remainder of the battle.
[QUOTE=Damian0358;49279233]Dwan, whilst still holding the howitzer's trigger, decided to toy with Folter. "Hey, you think anyone outside of the Crimus knows of your second power source? The one that isn't the Oracle?!", he spoke out.[/QUOTE]
Folter shrugged
Iska stumbled and leaned backwards when Folter landed a hit.
Iskas frustration with this smartass was starting to turn into anger, which in turn started fueling her Bloodrage.
Suddenly, Iska let out a roar threw her self up and forward, a stream of blood seeping out of her mouth like the liquid trail of a rocket intent on headbutting Folter with its entire body weight.
Her skin going from grayish blue to a mild red and her remaining eye shining bright orange.
Pippin raised his weapon and fired at the man, who seemed to have lost all reason.
"What, you don't care if the opposition finds out about this second power source? Because, just like the Oracle, we're gonna have to destroy it too!", Dwan responded to Folter's shrugging.
