Peacemaker walked trough the Camp. After the last fights, it wnet quiet, the Enemy got big losses and stopped the Attacks to reinforce their Units. As he reached the last of his Original Tanks, he sit down at its Side in the Shadow. "Its quiet in the last Days" said Kjerri as he walked slowly around the Tank and sit down, a Bottle in his Hand. "Yes, to quiet, they got since our last Attack to much Time to reinforce their Units. It will be hard to fight them back if they start a full Attack with all their Forces." "Ya and our Soldiers get Slowly bored without a fight. yesterday i saw one who was supposed to guard the Entrance falling asleep." said Kjerri and gave Peacemaker his Bottle "That isnt good, bored Soldiers die usually first." answerd Peacemaker and took a deep gulp. "Sir Sir" yelled a young Private as he run into Peacemakers direction "Yes?" "Sir we received just a Transmission from Brigadier General Fury. He wants to speak with you. Sir." "Allright, thanks Private." "Seems like our rest is over." said Peacemaker and walked over to the Com tent. Half an Hour later, after he called in his Soldiers he informed them about the News: "Allright, we got new Orders from Fury. The Raiders got the Mission to infiltrate the Enemy HQ on our North. We Assist them by laying cover fire on the artillery unit on the high ground to our north. Then we head out to crush the ground forces and hold off that area. After we secured at least half the Area we support Drill Squad with their Mission." "When do we start?" "We must wait till the Raiders are rdy, we peforate the enemy Artillery as soon as they are rdy to move out, not earlier. Its a coordinated Attack. Any more Questions? no? allright lets get rdy. HUA" The Dragoons replyd with a HUA and went out to prepare their Weapons. .........

A speeder approached the Dark Dragoon's camp. Kjerri spotted it first and alerted peacemaker. Peacemaker got out his long-range sensors and watched as the speeder came to a stop and nine white figures disembarked. "Not bad for a borrowed speeder, eh Otto?" Rizzit remarked. "No. Not at all. I wonder why it was abandoned like that." Otto asked. "Me too. Let's not waste time pondering though, it looks like Peacemaker is wondering who we are. Let's get going." The RAIDERS took any belongings they might have had in the speeder, and headed for the camp where Peacemaker was still gazing into his binoculars. "It's the RAIDERS!" said Peacemaker. Rizzit approached the camp with the rest of his squad. He seemed happy to see that the two squads were already there. "Well Peacemaker, looks like we're finally back together." "For now at least Rizzit. What brings you to our camp?" "Well, we need to take the hill to the west, and we needed some backup from your squad while we do it." "And then what?" "Then....THEN we go and look for information regaurding the ambassador." "I see...so after the artillery is taken out, we split up again." "Yes. If you don't mind, we'd like to rest here tonite. We can start first thing in the morning." "Fine with us Rizz! You and your squad make youselves comfortable." "Thanks Peacemaker." Rizzit and the RAIDERS, with Peacemaker's "OK" settled in and prepared themselves to head out the next day.

"Should I let him die slowly, or put him out of his misery?"--Rizzit

Snipes looked up from his gun, he was cleaning it again, and looked around the room, now they wher housed in a temporary structure, Drogo had his back to Snipes, probly making cofee, Mara was sitting in a corner doing something Snipes didnt bother with, Swomz sleeping loudly in a cot and finaly Snipes eyes landed on Rizzit,  who was apperantly staring off into space, prbly planning for tomarro. snipes wnt back to his gun wondering if it was natural to feel like your on a high on your first mission, but ever sence the first shot was fired, Snipes had found each other shot a little more exciting. asound came from Rizzits side of room, Snipes looked up. It looked asthough Riz was goin to bed. "didnt kno leaders slept" Snipes remarked casualy twards Riz "they dont"Riz replyed"they just pretend to" Heh Heh, Snipes thought, that waas a good aswer to a stupid question. Snipes got up, picked up his new helmet and holsterd his blaster an walk twards the door, "wher are you going" came Rizzits voice "just to find TK, im gettin bored" "be back by 22hundred at the latest, remmber we have a mission tomarro" "yes sir" Snipes replyed unexcitedly. early bedtimes again, just like my mother always madde me do, he thought to himself. he left the building quikly and proceded to ask directions asto the location of the DD building, he and TK wher in for a night to nite. "Hey, Wait up!" Came a voice from behind. Snipes turned it was TK, "hear you was lookin for me"he said. "just bored adn loster thatn h***" "heh heh, you easy to find, your the only one with your helmet in your hand, not on your head" "i tyr, i realy try" "so wher to?Your compound?"TK said energeticaly, Damn dos this guy ever get tired. "No, Riz would kill me, im alread in enought trouble, haveing missed turning in a coupla reports. hows bout the "mess hall" im sure that skrawny trpr in the corners still selling drinks." "No he got busted, we now acctualy have to pay for them" "ok then your compound" "ok" they walked and talked a laoughed thier way to the barraks, it took them a good half hour to get ther, but it was only 20 hundred hours. unfortuneatly when they got ther they wher greeted buy a less than good omen, Peacemaker was standing ther waiting for TK aperantly, becaouse as soon as they got ther- "corprol, your needed in the briefing room, something has come up" Peacemaker said to TK "krappers, ah well cya Snipes" TK said "ya cya" Snipes replyed Snipes grumbled to himself, goshdangit every time he and TK wher going to go party, something came up. what could it be this time. Snipes paced around in circles for awhile and left when it was getting too dark to realy see without his goggles, so he proceded back to his camp. he saw Swomz driving a speeder around up behind him going the same direction, Snipes hailed him down and hopped in the speedr. "what are you doing out here in a barrowed speeder" Snipes queried? "just taking a drive, and lookign for something to do" "take me back to our camp plz, i need some sleep" "right0" the ride was pretty good and Swomz wasnt a bad driver, but eventualy Snipes began to doze, then SMACK! they wher at the RAIDERS camp. "nice ride Swomz" Snipes complemented "Thnx" Snipes wnt in and fell emeediatly asleep. (ooc: sry i didnt get to finish this post, my mothers maling me turn off the comp. i dont care wht you do with the very little i got to here /ooc)   ----------------------- TRP\PFC Sniping101\Raiders\2PLT\1COM\1BAT\1REG\VEA\VE [LoR] "When you annoy me it takes 42 muscels in my face to frown, Wheras it takes only three muscels to extend my arm and b*tch slap you" what? MD had to go?

  Drogo and Swomz came over to where Shadow was sitting down on top of a box of ammunition and sat down on the ground nearby.   "What's up?" Swomz asked the senior sergeant. Shadow was still decked out in the same storm commando armor he had been wearing since the Dark Dragoons had arrived on Ord Durall. There was a standard-issue T-21 repeating rifle next to him, probably the only gun he owned that there was still ammo for in the camp.   The sergeant didn't have his helmet on, but he did have on the strange black mask he always seemed to where. The older man opened one eye to see who had had come to see him and moaned.   "I was trying to take a nap, you two. What do you want?"   Drogo frowned. "The squad leaders are all holed up in the command tent," he said.   "Yeah. And?"   "Well," Swomz answered, "what do you think they're talking about?"   "Sythspawn, man, I don't know." Shadow hopped down from the crate and began to pace back and forth in front of the two men. "They're probably just receiving the next phase of our orders from Cosmic or Fury."   "Yeah, but what do you think those will be?" Drogo asked.   Still pacing, Shadow responded, "The main part of our forces has left our new camp and headed out toward the enemies' main position. I would imagine that the two squads still here are going to use their expertise and experience to go on some kind of tripped-out special mission while the standard forces engage in a ground war."   "What the heck does that mean for us?" Swomz questioned.   "It means that the Raiders will no doubt be sent to take over part of the enemy's base, whether it be artillery or whatever. The Dark Dragoons - being the armored division - will probably head north and wipe out any remaining enemies there, just to ensure the safety of the base."   "And what about Drill Squad?" Drogo asked.   "I thought you were a Raider now."   "Well, I am. But I have a few friends in there."   Shadow shrugged. "I don't know. If I were Fury, I'd leave them here to watch the base. It's too dangerous to have newbies running around all over the place trying to play hero."   "And what if he sends the newbies off with you Dragoons," Swomz said, grinning.   Shadow stopped pacing and looked Swomz in the eyes. "Then I'll just cut off a little piece of every newbie that gets killed and send it back to your quarters in an envelope. By the time we get home, you'll have a nice-smelling room."   Swomz's eyes got real wide, but Drogo just started laughing. "That's not funny!" Swomz shouted, punching the private in the arm.   "Oh, come on," Drogo responded, "he's just kidding."   Shadow gave the private a blank stare, picked up his helmet and gun, and walked off to the Dragoons' waiting area. "No, I don't think he was," Swomz said.

Leave us . . . the dog eats strangers.

Mara was watching Drogo and Swomz chat with Shadow, and wondered if they were talking about what was going to happen soon.  She wondered where they would be going, or what their plans were.  The squad leaders had been in their meeting for a while... and no one had heard anything about what was going to happen... watching Shadow get up and walk out of the tent she decided to go over and talk to Drogo and Swomz... "Hey guys.. hear anything yet???"  Mara asks "Well" Swomz replies... "Shadow thinks the raiders are heading up to take over part of the enemy base.  We havent heard anything from the squad leaders yet though." "This waiting is horrible... my gun is as clean as it will ever get, I wish they would tell us what is going to happen" "Well Mara" Drogo laughs, "you know the saying, hurry up and wait, there will be plenty to do here very soon I am sure" "I have checked my comm gear..." Mara says  "Everything looks good, I am expecting a new planetary communications rig soon, and some other comm gear, I hope it gets here before we ship out on our mission, kinda hard to do my job without it.  Not much else to do but wait I guess, I cant imagin they will be much longer talking in there...they need to come out sometime" Drogo looks at his watch "bout time for us to grab some chow, our excitement for the day" Mara sighs... and thinks... enjoy the quiet time while you can, hell will break loose shortly I am sure

"So, we have some new forces to help us!" remarked Solidus. "I say we use them only if nessecary." commented Peacemaker. "I agree. Why should they take away from our fun?" said Rizzit. The meeting seemed to go on forever. More topics kept coming up, that couldn't be left unmentioned. They were "very important." Even the SLs were getting tired of sitting in the tent; especially Rizzit. "What of the reports of jammers in the Sernpidal system?" asked Solidus. "Jammers? I thought they were here...." remarked Rizzit. "Yes Rizz: you and your squad worked hard to take them out, but there are more jammers on local systems preventing us from making a decent connection with Serapin." answered Peacemaker. "Well, I say we head out. I am sure everyone is anxious to go. We've been in here long enough! Time for action!" urged Rizzit. "We can deal with the jammers later if we must!" Rizzit got the agreement of his fellow SLs and the three left the tent. As soon as they stepped foot out of the tent, Mara, Jed, Swomz, Shadow, and Drogo were the first to approach the Squad Leaders. "Why aren't you with the others?" asked Rizzit. "We were chatting with Shadow." replied Mara. "There was nothing else to do." remarked Jed. "Ya, well I'm sorry about that." Rizzit said. "I've got your new orders and they are:...." "Yes?" The five said in anxiety. "...to get your gear WE'RE MOVING OUT!" "Allright!" The five cheered, and rushed back to the tent to get their gear. "That's how to give the orders Rizz...." razzed Solidus. "Huh?" "Who's trying to please who `ere? You please them, or they please you?" "A little of both I'm afraid." Solidus laughed. "Well, to each 'is own I guess." "That's right. Now IF you will excuse me, I gotta go do a briefing with my troops." said Rizzit as he headed off towards the tent. On his way, he couldn't help but laugh himself at what Solidus had to say. I must be really lucky. he thought. I got a squad that works both ways. Can you beat that? Rizzit arrived at his tent, and went in to brief the troops.

Rizzit had finished giving the orders to the squad, when they all jumped up and cheered, some of them even hugged each other. It was the very odd thing that troopers did whe they had been cooped up to long. Otto Vox turned to his squad leader and long term friend,   "I was on a date once, and saw this holo..." "You?" Rizzit cut him off "On a date..... with a girl?"   Otto rolled his eyes at the other "Yes, with a girl. Anyways, we saw this holonovel called The Young and the Restless. I think of this bunch at times like these, and it's more like the Young and the Hopeless." The other smiled and picked up his pack and rifle. "Come on," he said "Let's get goin and get the ants out of these "young and hopeless" troopers of ours."   "Yes," Otto smirked "let's." The two stepped out of the tent and their squad formed up around them, and they headed out at a steady jog, mostly because the majority of the squad was already doing so.

Mara looked at the hill and thought to herself, piece of cake...  she felt better hearing that Drogo, Swomz and Snipes eliminated much of the enemy and that one gun that was pinning them down was finally out of commission.  Rizzit shouted "Mara stay close to me... might need comm"... following closely they made their way up the hill towards the control bunker.  Mara heard Drogo's voice checking in on the comm  "Mara this is Drogo...what is your status?"  "Drogo, we are pushing through some light resistance, maybe a quarter of the way up the hill... no problems yet, what's your status?"  static... Mara waited.. more static, "DROGO" Mara yelled, "WHAT IS YOUR STATUS?" nothing but static, Mara looked for Rizzit, to let him know the status... when a shout came from the comm... "Mara... heavy resistance, almost to the halfway point... all infantry that I can see... there is a ... " static.. Mara caught up to Rizzit and filled him in on the three fighters position... Rizzit, looked around, "Mara keep trying on the comm.. we need to get up there asap... try to find out what we are walking into"  Rizzit shouted orders " we need to get up there NOW!  we have some of our men pinned up there... we need to get them out!"  and with that the raiders ran, shooting their way through all opposition making their way towards where they think their men are...  Mara yelled on the comm.. receiving nothing but static in return...

Drogo muttered curses under his breath as he listened to Mara's voice slowly fade to static. They were close to the bunker now and radio signals were getting crossed. The private sat with his back to a rock with blaster bolts flying over his head. The enemy infantry was fighting with a fierceness and desperation only possible of those defending their own homeland and their numbers were also greater than they had estimated. Drogo looked to his left to see Swomz on his stomach peering around the corner of a rock similar to the one he was using for cover. He had his blaster rifle in hand and was putting his markmanship to good use picking off anyone foolish enough to raise even an inch of their head above their cover. Sniping was just to Drogo's right behind the same rock and was periodically standing up to let loose a spray of bolts in order to draw some of the heat from Swomz while Drogo was trying to get through on the comm. "These blasted things never work when you really need them" Drogo thought to himself as he resorted to simply beating the part of his helmet that housed the transmitter.     Drogo knew that they couldn't just sit there too much longer or they would simply be over run and he couldn't see any way out short of running for their lives simply to be mowed down by repeater fire from the enemy position. He hoped that the rest of the Raiders were having more luck on the bottom side of the hill. If they could make it through and draw off some of the heat then Drogo, Swomz, and Snipes might have a chance of getting "un-pinned".     Snipes was reloading his blaster rifle when suddenly Swomz shouted from behind his rock. "Heads up! They're trying to rush us!" he shouted.     Snipes finished reloading just as Drogo lobbed a grenade over his head and the rock. "Wait for it," he said to Snipes as he drew his pistols from their underarm holsters and spun them backwards one time in his hands. There was a loud bang and Drogo shouted, "Now!". He leaped up and quickly took down three enemy infantry with his dual pistol fire as the dirt from the explosion rained down on his helmet. Snipes followed his lead and had two kills before he even bothered to pick a target and aim. With the help of Swomz they picked of several more enemy infantry and forced them to withdraw back to the outer bunker wall which they had been using for cover.     "Watch your flank," Drogo shouted to Swomz assuming that the direct charge on their position had merely been a diversion.     "Likewise," replied Swomz as he worked his way onto one knee and tried to position himself so that his rock would offer cover from the bunker and his exposed left flank.     Drogo had guessed right. Within a matter of minutes both of their flanks were being attacked. Drogo risked exposing himself to stand up and heave a grenade over Swomz's head. The drenade exploded as the frontrunners aproached it. It sent one flying into the air in thi opposite direction of his left leg and sent two others sprawling to the ground. He watched Swomz pick off the first two infantry through the smoke left by the grenade and then turned to help Snipes defend his own flank. Sniping had already killed three troopers who were foolish enough to stay bunched together as they charged. Drogo lobbed two grenades towards the oncoming soldiers and drew his pistols ceremoniously spinning them backwards in his hands. It was a ritual he had developed for every time he drew his weapons in preparation for an ensuing fight rather than drawing them in haste for self defense. The grenades exploded right in the middle of the first group up the hill and sent most of them flying through the ari or falling limply to the ground. Drogo took down two of the front runners that made it through while Snipes took care of the third. This went on for several minutes that seemed to drag on for hours and despite everything the troopers could do the enemy soldiers were slowly gaining ground. The enemy was making what was sure to be the final push when Drogo heard shots being fired from the bunker below but didn't see or hear any bolts flying past his position. The blasts sounded like they were staying in the trench. He turned back to his flank to see a large group of infantry making anouther push on their position. He then turned his head back to see the same thing on Swomz's side.     "It was nice knowing you guys," Swomz yelled.     All Drogo could do was smirk a bit. He didn't know what to say because he hadn't expected to die this early in his career. He began to fire into the oncoming group of enemy soldiers when torrent of blasts came flying up from down the hill and cut down the attackers on both sides. One woudn't be able to tell with their helmets on but the three troopers exchanged very confused and worried glances. The troopers slowly peered around the rocks to get a handle on the change in the situation. Drogo couldn't see anyone behind the bunker but his comm began to crackle with life and he heard a familiar voice.     "The cavalry's here," said Mara.     "It's about, don't you think," replied Drogo.     "Rizzit says to get down to the bunker, boys," said Mara. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------     The three troopers made their way down to the bunker to meet up with the rest of the squad. The other Raiders were amid the boddies that were strewn about the bunker's outer wall. They had arrived in the nick of time and Drogo was thankful. They reached the bunker and exchanged hellos with the rest of their comrades.     "How did you all fare coming up?" asked Swomz.     "There wasn't too much resistance," replied Rizzit. "Most of their attention seemed to be focused on your pyrotechnics display, Drogo."     "It gave me shivers to see that gun go up in a briiliant explosion," added Otto.     "We'll go over details later," said Rizzit. "Right now we still have this bunker to deal with."     "Why don't I just blow the doors shut, Sir?" asked Drogo. "We don't have any idea how many more guys they could be hiding in there."     "Negative, private," said Rizzit. "We might be able to find some information about the ammbassador in there, or at least something about the defences in the town we're headed to next. Swomz, you stay here and watch the door. The rest of you split into groups of two and work your way through the bunker complex. Maintain radio contact and meet back here at eleven hundred hours. Move out!"     Drogo stuck with Sniping and they began to make their way down a small coridor off of the main hallway. The sweat was trickling down Drogo's forehead as he made his way down the narrow hallway. There was a door to the right at the end of the hallway. Drogo pressed his back to the wall as he neared the door and Snipes quickly ran to the other side of the door and did likewise.     "Is there anyone in there?" Drogo called out. There was no reply and the troopers heard no signs of motion in the room. Drogo nodded to Snipes and swungs around to enter the room with his pistols leveled. Sniping followed his lead and the two quickly secured the empty room. The room was filled with maps and communications equipment along with other documents and things that Drogo didn't recognize. They had unwittingly found the bunkers control room.     "Holy s##t," Drogo said in astonnishment as he holstered his blasters. He got on his commlink, "Rizzit, I think you might want to get down here. Snipes and I seem to have found the control room."     "Roger that. What's you're position?" came Rizzit's response.     "Second corridor on your left off from the main. It's the last and only door," replied Drogo.     "We'll see you there," said Rizzit as Drogo switched off his comm.     They were looking over the documents they had found when suddenly the door to one of the metal personel lockers along the wall flew open with a crash. Drogo quickly drew his pistols and whirled around firing a shot in the direction of the noise and bring his other blaster to rest on the main door to the room. An enemy soldier had tried to get the drop on them while they weren't paying attention but Drogo had put a blaster bolt right through his head. Just the Rizzit, who had sped down the hallway when he heard the commotion, burst into the door to see one of Drogo's pistols aimed at his face. He stopped dead in his tracks as Drogo, realizing why he stopped, holstered his pistols.     "Sorry, boss," said Drogo. "I wasn't sure who was running down the hall when this guy decided to jump out of this locker."     "You're forgiven," said Rizzit. "What have you found?"     "Well," said Drogo, " I think you should have a look at these." He said this as he handed Rizzit the documents that had been on the table. [OOC: I'm not really sure what the deal is with the ambassador so I'll let someone else explain that. Whichever Raider picks this up next start moving us towards enemy HQ. We should only counter minimal resistance.]

"Sir, we've got enemies coming from the north, 3 armors, 2 platoons of infantry and from what i can see, around 2 Interplanetary fighters.

"Hmm, I'm an NCO already?"

It was very ironic that MaraJade should get paired up with Rizzit. They were people of two different positions, two different specialties, two different races even. So why did Rizzit get paired up with her? Rizzit felt that those who did not have much experience using a rifle should either get paired with the more experienced troopers. A tragedy was the last thing they needed, as it would only set them back. As shown with her lack of experience, Mara could not aim as well as Rizzit and some of the others. This was to be expected though. Although she was exceptional in other areas, she still had much to learn about firing a rifle. Still, she stayed "Faithful to the End!" and continued to fire. She used twice the ammo as a regular trooper, because she fired twice to get an enemy. Which was very good for someone fresh out of Drill, but something that would need work in a training simulator. There was no time for that now, they needed to reach the top of the hill. Mara gave Rizzit a surprise when she took out two troopers using one shot each. "WOW!" said Rizzit. "Great shot!" "Thanks. After a while, you get the hang of this thing." replied Mara. "EXACTLY! That is why I never harp on training people with target practice. It's something they learn to do." said Rizzit, not willing to admit what his opinions really were."Com'on! Otto is just up ahead. Let's meet up with him and Jed." "okay." said Mara sheepishly. "There's strength in numbers I guess..."

The RAIDERS opened up their lunch boxes. The food was not the best, but it was better than starving. Otto and Rizzit rushed through the food as sunrise came. Many were still eating, so the SL and XO decided they would rest for a change. The troopers needed a well-deserved meal, and they needed a rest. Finally, after Swomz had eaten every last crumb of his breadsticks (at least they looked like breadsticks) Rizzit and Otto got off the rocks they were sitting on. "Okay everyone, let's move out. It's daytime now, so it should be easy to see." "Won't that make it more obvious where we are?" asked Drogo. "Yes, but at the same time we have a better group of soldiers than they do. Let's go." As ordered, the lunch boxes were closed and packed away if they had not already been. With high hopes of breaking through enemy forces, they moved closer to finding the ambassador with every step. They were on the road, when the3djedi heard some tanks and explosions nearby. "Rizzit, Otto, did you guys hear that?" he asked. "Ya Jed. Why don't ya go check it out? Give us a call on the com-link if ya need some backup." "Okay Rizz. I'll let ya know what I see." The3djedi went ahead to go see what the explosions were. Not knowing who or what could be ahead, he did it anyways. He was one of those troopers that did anything and everything they could for the squad, someone Rizzit and Otto were proud to have amoungst them. Jed crept along the walls of the mountainous terrain, so that he would not leave footprints. When he did something, he was very cautious about doing it, as not to give away his position and/or what he was doing.

"Um, excuse me Rizzit; but why are we moving on ahead of you if we are all going there?" asked Swomz. "Well, Jed needs medical attention. We need to get there eventually, but you're the medic here.

I am glad to do what I can." replied Swomz, satisfied with Rizzit's answer. "TJ, JR, take care of him." said Rizzit. "I'll take the squad on to meet you. Get to Jed ASAP! He's got enemy trouble as well." "We will. See ya soon." As Rizzit ordered, the 3 RAIDERS left the squad to go find the3djedi. While the rest of the RAIDERS remained. After they had gone out of sight, Otto went over to Rizzit. "Rizz, why didn't you send Mara and Drogo as you said?" Otto asked. "I am not going to send my three newest troops out on their own. They have exceptional skills, but they are not ready to be sent on their own just yet. Besides, a Jedi Knight is good to have for a bodygaurd don't you agree?" replied Rizzit. "True, but I'll bet ya 100 ICs that Swomz slows the other two down." he teased. "You're on. Heck, make it 200." "Oooh! This is good! I'm going to make MONEY!" "We will see. Everyone, let's go!" Rizzit ordered. The rest of the RAIDERS headed out to find their other squadmates. Rizzit hoped that Swomz could get to the3djedi soon. If not, things would not be looking good for either the3djedi or the RAIDERS. Things were not looking good anyways, the squad was split in two groups; leaving them vunerable to an ambush. For their own safety, Rizzit pulled out his comlink. "Peacemaker this is Rizzit do you copy?" "I copy. Your transmission is clearer this time." "Ya weird isn't it. Anyways, please keep an eye on us and send some kind of support if we need it. Our squad is split in two, and I don't want to start a war if we don't have to." "Roger that Rizz. No prob. I'll take care of things up here with some bombardment. You just do what ya need to do. After all, we're here to back you up remember?" "Oh, Right! Well, thanks. I'll be in touch over!" Rizzit closed the comlink connection, and marched on with his half of the squad. He was more at ease knowing that they could count on some assistance from the Dark Dragoons if need be, which was of more assurance than anyone could realize at the time.

"Should I let him die slowly, or put him out of his misery?"--Rizzit

"Hey! Teej! Over here!" yelled Otto as he ran towards TJ. "Otto, where is Rizz? Is he...." TJ started. "Don't even think it Teej!" Rizzit interrupted. "Rizzit, you're....ALIVE? How is that possible?" gasped JR. "Of course. While it would give me pleasure to die with my squad, I am NOT going to leave them without an SL. If that trooper didn't have a flamethrower, I would not have lost my lucky rifle. I'll just have to use my spare. How's Jed doing? Is he okay?" "He's fine. He just needs to rest a bit." replied Swomz. "Good job Swomz. Looks like you're going to be of use after all. Hmmm...let's look for a cave somewhere. Or at least somewhere we can set up shelter. Everyone, let's move out." The RAIDERS marched out two by two with the exception of jed, who rode on a stretcher in the middle. They went on for nearly an hour, when they found a cave blocked by a boulder. Rizzit ordered a halt, and ordered the squad to wait while he and Drogo went to inspect the cave. After getting help from the squad to roll back the stone, Rizzit and Drogo went in. Once inside, Rizzit pulled out a laser light and inspected the cave. "Looks abandoned..." said Drogo. "Yea, looks like we'll be spending the night here. Let's go!" said Rizzit. Rizzit and Drogo emerged from the cave only to find the squad anxiously awating them. Drogo joined the rest of his squad members, while Rizzit got everyone's attention. "Night will be upon us soon. We'll spend the night here. Otto and I will take the first watch. The rest of you may sleep until it is your turn." "Will we be in teams for this Rizz?" asked JR. "Of course. Let's see, it's now 17:00. We'll all go inside and have a meal. At 18:00 we will start the watch. You are all free to do as you wish, but when Otto and I return at 21:00 you had better be sleeping. There will be 4 three-hour watches and here are the teams: -First watch: Otto and me -Second watch: Drogo and JR -Third watch: TJ and Mara -Fourth Watch Swomz and Snipes Any questions?" A silence was heard from all. "Good." said Rizzit. "Let's eat! You've all earned it!" With hunger and weariness set in, the RAIDERS entered the cave and dug out some food. Everyone shared some extra food with Jed, as he needed nourishment to recover. Even if nourishment meant eating more rotten food than usual. One thing he didn't have to worry about was getting fat. The food was too bad to make anyone fat....   ----------------------- Platoon Sergeant Rizzit BlackHeart Wildcard Platoon Raider's Squad Leader Army of the Vast Empire SL/PSGT Rizzit/3SQD/1PLT/COMP/1BAT/1RGT//VE[OPE][OTH][EW1] "Should I let him die slowly, or put him out of his misery?"--Rizzit

"With due respect sir, I think we are running low on ammunition after the last fight, those Tanto Fighters are just too fast, that fighter that just escaped is sure to come with re-inforcements." TK suggested as he sat down. "Corporal, we have no other choices, if we the the Raiders go through without us watching, who knows what will come sneaking up from the back. Our orders are to cover them with everything we've got, do you understand that!?" Peacemaker replied. "Yes Sergeant!...but if we have no ammunition, what will we protect them with sir?" TK politely asked. "We got trouble! incoming from all sides, HEAVILY ARMED!!!" Darkjedi shouted. "I KNEW THOSE BASTARDS WOULD COME BACK!" TK shouted. "Shut up Corporal, Everyone defensive formation A!" Peacemaker commanded. The three Privates hesitantly fired at the incoming troops while the NCOs open fired at just about anything that moves, but TK on the other hand was trying to start his STAP so he can provide Strafing runs...Suddenly it was silent. "What the hell...do you think they've discovered us Sir?" Darkjedi whispered. "I dont think so, keep your guns loaded troops" He whispered back. "ALLRIGHT, NOBODY MOVE!!! Give up you're surrounded!" A Militiaman shouted. The Dark Dragoons (except for TK who's behind the bushes) put their hands on their heads. "NEVER!!!!!"TK shouted as he beheaded a militiaman with his sword...   ----------------------- TRP David "TK-112" Bowman Corporal - (SPEC:T-VC) 1.2SQD Vast Empire Army TRP/CPL TK-112/2SQD/1PLT/1COM/1BAT/1RGT/VEA/VE "Hmm, I'm an NCO already?" [OOC]I believe I need to be the first one to ask: WHAT THE HELL IS THIS? First rule of storywriting in a group setting:  ALWAYS clear any major plot changes with your SL. I will leave this mess to Peacemaker to clean up. Why? Cuz I would just otherwise delete it outright. - Fury[/OOC] [OOC] Fu, this aint no major change, we're still outside, but in my last post, I wrote how ther were an ambush team in the field. All I'm saying is that we're outside the complex, just ambushed....[/OOC] [Re-OOC] If you even knew how many people have contacted me and wanted me to deal with this serious illogical plot twist to the story, you would shut the hell up and learn a little freaking respect.  It IS a major change, it IS glory-hounding, and it IS a plot twist you would be courteous enough to let someone know about beforehand. I COULD have deleted this outright, but instead I am leaving it to your SL to decide if he can salvage a story line out of this.  Have your day big man as your glory showboating still has a possibility of surviving.  But remember, no one person is better than his squad and we don't do superhero storywriting here.
