Summary:
The crew's observation in Redon Village has taken a disastrous turn. Villagers scurry away in search of shelter while some Andromeda members have already been injured or rendered unconscious by destroyed buildings, and the last of the debris is still to land.

Suits are inoperational; tricorders are inoperational, ATVs are inoperational, and the duckblind is exposed for all to see.

CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
Dr. Mills: What I sense of Cmdr. Knight and the Captain, they are both knocked out for the time being. I have a general sense of where they were.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::takes a scarf and wraps it around his head to try make it less obvious he doesn't belong::

ACTION:
As the crew scatter, final pieces of debris fall.

Dr_Mills says:
::Nods, shakily:: CNS: ....what...do we do?
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::On the pier, looking for anyone who might be injured::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
Dr. Mills: We go get them of course. Leave no man, or woman, behind after all. ::picks up the pace::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::off the path, in between several trees, which are helping to obscure him at least a little::

ACTION:
A burning rock impacts the ground 15 meters from Davis, sending tree shards into the air with a whoosh of heat.

XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::moves back to the path to see if his ATV is sufficiently hidden from obvious glances and starts making his way quickly towards the Pier::

ACTION:
With a whistling warning, another rock impact not five meters from Varesh and Mills.

SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::jumps as a screeching sound becomes a boom, knocking trees about and splintering others::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::finds himself back out on the path--he scrambles to get the rest of the suit off and tosses it towards the trees::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Holds his arm up in front of his face as shrapnel kicks up into the air some distance from himself...looks around at the chaos as people scatter::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
~~~CNS: Give me some good news. I'm heading towards the pier now~~~
Dr_Mills says:
::Naturally dives for the nearest cover as she sees/hears something coming toward them::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::dodging falling rocks keeps running through town, impatient when he needs to wait for Dr. Mills.:: ~~~XO: Nothing yet, sir. Still heading for the Captain and Sky.~~~

SCENE:
The last projectiles hit the ground, leaving the village square and market near deserted, with exception of a few wounded and dead, littered amongst the debris. The square and market grow quiet, while the military bases begin to hum with activity.

Maestress_Qiral says:
::Steadfastly wanders through the village::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::arrives close enough to the pier and starts searching through the faces looking for SOPS::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Sees something indistinctly odd out of the corner of his eye, and turns to observe an individual sprinting away in odd hues, and calls after them::  Aloud:  Tur et!  Tur on regekti!
Dr_Mills says:
::Coughs a bit, almost-but-not-quite sheepishly, as she climbs back to her feet, quickly trying to catch up with Varesh, though still occasionally glancing up at the sky::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Holds his hand up to his forehead to serve as a visor, and watches as the individual continues to run...shakes his head, assuming nothing out of the ordinary is taking place...his first priority is to find the injured::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::moving up along the pier towards the tree line looking for SOPS::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::scrambles out towards the town::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::heads for the general area he knows the CMO and CO was::
Dr_Mills says:
CNS: Where....where are we looking? How are we going to find them? My tricorder isn't working....   ::Trying to be slightly less panicked about the situation, but she's definitely out of her element.

ACTION:
Varesh and Mills approach the last known locations of the CMO and CO, finding an area hit particularly badly by the shattered rock. Several flattened thatch buildings present themselves.

Maestress_Qiral says:
::Approaches one particularly flattened building, seeing a hand sticking out from beneath, and kicks it gently with her booted foot::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
Dr. Mills: I always have a general sense of where my closest friends and family are - they both fall in that category. I know roughly were they were, but all we really need to look for is those chameleon suits and that should be easy enough to spot. Keep an eye out for Lt. Ivara too. She was heading for a beam-out location so she might be there.
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Sees another figure that seems strangely out of place somehow, and begins to approach, as they also seem to be looking for someone::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::continues moving about along the tree line looking about::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::isn't quite sure what is going on, or for that matter where she is, but she is quite sure that someone is trodding on her hand.::
Dr_Mills says:
CNS: Like...there?  ::Points at a cloak suit expended on the ground about ten meters away::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::turns to look and immediately heads that way:: Dr. Mills: Exactly like that.
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::heads back the way he and McQuade came--or was it?--amidst a kind of serious amount of chaos::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
Self: SOPS where did you disappear to... ::makes his ways back towards the village to regroup with the CNS::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Calls ahead from his spot some sixty meters off::  XO:  Tur et hagndan!  Alet daradge!  ::Takes off at a light trot::
Maestress_Qiral says:
::Getting some sort of resistance from the hand, she leans down and starts pulling what debris she can off the body there::
Maestress_Qiral says:
::Talking softly, but firmly as she does:: CSO: Kebet be fine. Stay still. I will rhetyy you. Kebet be fine. Stay still. I will rhetyy you.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::sees someone moving towards him and tries blend in with the disorganized chaos around him::
Dr_Mills says:
::Quickens her pace to keep up with Varesh, somewhat less timid now that the sky isn't falling around them::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::blinks a few times as a shaft of light shines down on her face.  She instinctively tries to move her hand to cover her eyes and discovers exactly how pinned she is.  A wrenching pain in her left arm informs her that there is something quite wrong there too.::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::scrambles and drops to his knees next to the bit of cloak suit:: Dr. Mills: Look around to see if there is someone else too. ::begins to clear debris off the suited figure::
Maestress_Qiral says:
::With extensive effort, she pushes a large piece of wall just enough away to prop it up, centimeters off the suited figure, then stops to catch her breath::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::arrives into the edge of the village and ducks into a dark corner trying to slip his follower::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::peers through the helmet and gives a sigh of relief:: Dr. Mills: I found the Captain. Cmdr. Sky should be nearby. ::looks around for a moment before continuing to clear debris::
Dr_Mills says:
::Nods, and tentatively starts wandering off in the near area, looking for another suit::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Loses the individual in the swarm of people moving through, but continues on his way, hoping to bump into someone else from the base::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::reaches what he thinks was the town area that he and McQuade had wandered through::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
~~~XO: I found the Captain and presumably Sky will be nearby. Getting them out of their suits if possible. Where to then?~~~
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::mutters to herself:: Aloud: flipping chicken little. ::she blinks a few times and then clenches her teeth as the bit of wall shifts off of her side to pinch her arm.:: self: Yep, that’s broken.  ::she looks at the rescuer and tries to remember some of the language::
Dr_Mills says:
::Spots one across the street:: CNS: I found one!   ::Runs off across the street toward the suit, near a destroyed building::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::takes a minute to catch his breath and scan the faces of the people in the village looking for his crew::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Sees a row of crushed huts as he reenters the village proper, and picks up his pace, running toward it to continue his thus far unsuccessful and unfocused rescue efforts::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
~~~CNS: Good, yet to be decided. Assume blind is compromised. I'm at the edge of the village but I picked up a tail, making sure I lost him first~~~
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
Dr Mills: Good! Start clearing the debris. I almost have the Captain free and then I'll get him out of the suit. We need to be less conspicuous.::keeps clearing the debris, lifting a larger piece away so he can pull the Captain free::
Dr_Mills says:
::Kneels at the suit, turning it over, but finds it dishearteningly light:: ::Shouts across the street:: CNS: It's empty...but it's the doctor's. She must be nearby.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
~~~XO: I agree on that assumption.~~~ ::looks up for a moment:: Mills: She had time to get out of it?!
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Approaches Qiral::  Qiral:  Need help?
Dr_Mills says:
CNS: Apparently.  ::Starts moving toward the nearest destroyed building, pulling debris around, looking for anything underneath::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::looks again as the figure haloed in the light begins to come into focused, she attempts to speak in the little bit of Faust she picked up from her observations:: Qiral: <Thank you. Be um...do not afraid.> ::struggles:: Qiral: <I you not harm will.>
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::takes a quick glance around and moves across the street
Maestress_Qiral says:
::Pauses, at Ivara's words, then looks up to the military Mirrum, speaking rather fluently in their language:: Raybetz: Yes, please. We need to bring her out. She is injured.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
Mills: I'm almost done here then I'll help you! ::gets his arms under the Captain's armpits and pulls him free before starting to strip the useless suit off him::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::smacks into someone rushing across the way; as he spins out of the collision, he notices a familiar face, though he can't recall the name--either due to his lackluster people skills, the afternoon rock shower, or both::
Dr_Mills says:
::Pushes aside one piece of debris and spots a shoed foot sticking out from the rubble, sending a sickening lurch through her stomach::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::rushes over to the CNS and starts moving some of the rubble off him:: CNS: Greetings stranger
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Gasps as he's run into by some strange man...he turns to try to get a closer look, but the man has already moved on::
Dr_Mills says:
::Kneels down beside the familiar shoe and begins digging away the rubble::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
Qiral:  I will do what I can.  ::Reaches into the rubble and carefully begins to slide Ivara out...once she is clear of the rubble, turns her over so she can get some air, and starts back a bit::  CSO:  You?  Doing here what are?  ::Blinks rapidly in confusion::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::blinks back tears and grits her teeth, wiggling her right arm free of the debris:: Qiral: <What?>  ::points up at the sky. Qiral: <Attacked?> ::begins shifting some of the debris off her suit, knowing that playing local isn't going to work, but thankfully whoever this is isn't running away.::
Dr_Mills says:
::With a broken, tremulous catch to her voice:: CNS: I---I think I've found her.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::looks up:: XO: Greetings. Get the captain out of the suit, I need to help Mills to find Sky and Ivara is still missing. ::gets up and heads over to Dr. Mills::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::appears out of nowhere next to Mills, Varesh, and now Conor::
Maestress_Qiral says:
::Looks between Raybetz and Ivara curiously:: Raybetz: You...know this one?    ::Shakes her head, dismissing the incident for now, and instead kneels beside Ivara:: CSO: You are getzy injured. Heot still. Let me look.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::starts helping Dr. Mills shifting debris off the person under it all:: SOPS: Come help here. Dr Mills thinks it’s Commander Sky.
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::gasps and blinks pain evident on her features as she cradles her left arm.:: Raybetz: Obser...::stops herself and schools her response.:: Raybetz: <Watch.  Help. Protect...>
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::takes three steps towards Varesh, still in a little bit of a daze::
Maestress_Qiral says:
::In Mirrum:: Jaluk: We befd ikd out si this---suit?
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::finishes removing the COs suit and fireman lifts him::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::glances up at Davis:: SOPS: Are you alright? Did you hit your head? ::looks down again and keeps moving debris::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::groans under the strain of lifting the CO and makes a mental note to do more weight training and starts moving him towards a wall he can prop the CO up against::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::kneels down and picks up the nearest piece of...junk::  CNS: No, I'm alright.
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::tosses the plastic feeling thing to the side and reaches for something else::
Dr_Mills says:
::Gently helps ease Knight-Sky's body out of the debris, and fumblingly tries to check her pulse::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::looks over at Davis again before moving over to check on Sky, feeling for a pulse while peeling back her eyelids to check pupil response.::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
SOPS: If you feel woozy or nauseous tell me immediately.
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Shakes his head toward Qiral, his mind in a frenzy, and his face showing a combination of panic and quickened consideration::  Qiral:  Should go to base...rejteks.  ::In a rather bold move, kneels down and scoops up Ivara in his arms::  Thanks!
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::looks at Qiral and begins tugging at the suit's fasteners with her good hand, continuing in Faust:: Raybetz/Qiral: <Injured, arm, side.> ::flexes her legs, they seem unbroken.:: Raybetz/Qiral: <I you not harm will!>
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::checks the COs pulse and breathing and once satisfied he moves back to the rest of the crew::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::yanks out some metal thing this time, then realizes he probably should take a little more care if someone is buried in this heap of crap::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::turns::  CNS: I can deal with the woozy and the nauseous as long as I don't get hit in the face by a large space rock.
Maestress_Qiral says:
::Nods:: Raybetz: Good idea.  Be tekley!   ::Pats Ivara's arm gently, whispering in Faust:: CSO: Be calm. I will check you.    ::In Mirrum:: Raybetz: You will let  me see her, yes?
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::reacts the way she would to any man attempting to pick her up, despite the pain, she swings her right fist towards his nose.:: Raybetz: Put me DOWN! ::emphasizes in Faust:: Raybetz: <Down>
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::smiles weakly through the concern for his friend:: SOPS: Amen to that. ::opens his medkit, rummaging through the mostly useless equipment::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::frowns at the weak, thready pulse and shallow breathing:: XO: We need to get out of here, I need to somehow treat her.
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::In Mirrum, at first::  Qiral:  I -- ::Shudders as he is verbally assaulted from two quarters, and quickly lays Ivara back down on the ground, taking a few steps back, just in case, but...tilts his head and looks to Ivara meaningfully::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Plainly::  CSO:  Neural if...must go.  ::Tilts his head toward Qiral::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::tosses a large brick, or half of one, out to the side::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::closes the medkit again and slings it onto his back again:: XO: Where do we go? ::hears the commotion down the street::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::looks up and hears the commotion and sees the CSO:: CNS: Let’s take care of this first ::points in the CSO's direction::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Starts to look a bit panicky, and reaches for his radio, clicking the button repeatedly...but it's still quite dead::
Maestress_Qiral says:
::Looks between the two of them curiously, then kneels beside Ivara:: ::In very simply Faust, as if speaking to a child, every word intelligible to Ivara:: CSO: You must go, to the doctors. You are injured.
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::calms down quickly and rolls to her front, gathering her legs under her and standing slowly, painfully.:: Raybetz: <Injured.> ::points to her left arm and side.:: Raybetz: <I you go with.> ::looks at her right hand still balled into a fist:: Raybetz: <Sorry>
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
Dr. Mills/SOPS: Look after them. ::follows the XO::
Dr_Mills says:
::Looks slightly panicky as Varesh starts away, and looks instead to Davis:: SOPS: I--I don't know what to do. Is she going to die?
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
Ivara:  Please.  Follow.  ::Starts off on the most direct route toward the military base, taking out his sidearm and checking to be sure it's loaded::  Qiral:  Thank you.  ::Makes the silly little hop of Faust courtesy, and heads off, checking to be sure Ivara is following::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::calls over his shoulder:: Mills: She's fine for now! ::hurries down the street::
Maestress_Qiral says:
::Hops in farewell to Raybetz, but continues watching for a moment, her intellectual curiosity beyond stimulated::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::eyes the back of Varesh, then exchanges glances with Mills::  Mills: Let's hope not. I didn't sign up to watch people die.
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::duplicates the little hop to Qiral:: Qiral: <Teacher, thank you. Do not you again see expect. Sorry. Careful.>
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
XO: What are we going to do? Will Davis be of more use to you? I really need to help Sky and the Captain.
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Standing outside the cliff base, at attention, watching down the road toward the town, for anyone else coming to the base. Checks credentials as a few soldiers bring injured into the base::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::moves after Raybetz calmly and quickly knowing that there is no way she is going to pass as a member of anything from this planet. And she likely has the best grasp on the language so she is the best 'face' of the federation for now.  Hopefully they won't preform too many experiments.::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::kneels down next to Knight-Sky and feels for a pulse, and finding one he begins looking around the area::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Looks up at the cliff face::  CSO:  Jelwetz.  Danger.  ::Marches on toward the base::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CNS: I take the guard and you make sure he has nothing which goes bang in his hands, then we get the CSO out. Let’s make this quick ::hurries his pace::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Calls ahead to Terrk, loudly::  Terrk:  Labdan!  Cabda na two-thirteen!
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::to his right, he sees a broken floorboard, or part of a ceiling; it is medium in size, with one flat surface, and its bottom might have been flat at one point but is now broken::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
XO: Aye sir. ::moves faster to catch up:: But we might not get him in time, sounds like he's hailing someone.
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::His eyes bug-out at the code:: Raybetz: You----you sure?
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::keeps up with Raybetz:: Raybetz: <What is Jelwetz?>
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CNS: Run then ::sprints after the CSO::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::moves the board underneath Knight-Sky's feet to elevate them, then looks for something to put under her head::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::looks calmly at the guard, her left hand cradled in her right::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::sprints after the XO, not certain this plan will work::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
Terrk:  Yes!  ::He picks up the pace, urgent but clearly not threatening toward Ivara -- his body language and voice betray a protective air more than anything::  CSO:  Come, come.  Danger here.
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Turns to shout back at the base:: Jaluk_Ritz: Cabda na two-thirteen!
Jaluk_Ritz says:
::Calls deeper into the base:: Cabda na two-thirteen!
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::moves with Raybetz so far unaware of the crew's situation.::

ACTION:
A series of echoes into the base can be heard as the code is repeated verbally, each time with a bit of surprise and incredulity befitting its message: "Cabda na two-thirteen."

XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::runs up behind Raybetz and kicks him in the back of his leg and pushes him hard in the back of the head to slam him into the ground::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Averts his head skyward a moment as he walks backward, facing Ivara as he speaks::  CSO:  Ahh...ah...quick?  ::Tilts his head::  Yes.  Quick.  No see in... ::Makes a big sweeping hand motion::  Doing not know... ::Appears to be encircling the town with his motion::  ...here-place.  ::Points to the base::  Better there-pl--  ::Stunned::
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::finds a broken brick of sorts and places it under the doctor's head, elevating it slightly::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::removes her helmet, and swings it hard at the head of the town's person who is assaulting Raybetz::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::not quite expecting the violence of the moment darts in to get the weapon::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Rolls over, and instinctively, as his panic spills over, fires his pistol into the air twice in the direction of his unseen assailant::
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Looks back, still astonished from the call, and looks back to Raybetz, to see him suddenly attacked by a stranger. Quickly pulls his side arm, aiming it at the group:: XO: Stop!
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::starting to question the wisdom of this plan as he manages to grab the weapon, whirling to point it in the direction of the new voice::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::follows with a swift sharp kick to the back of the man's knee while flinging her helmet at the figure grabbing for Raybetz' pistol.::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
CSO: Stop flailing about Ivara!
Dr_Mills says:
ACTION: As Raybetz, Conor, Ivara, and Varesh all go at each other/the pistol, two sharp shots are heard in the air as Terrk discharges his weapon into the top of a hut just behind them:: All: I. Said. Stop!
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::freezes his movement at the sound of that weapon, looking at Terrk::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::As he immediately ceases struggling::  Aloud:  Understand not...why out?
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::backs up from the trio looking at Terrk, she smiles at him thinly looking at the backs of the two men in local attire with that feeling that she knows who they are. In fed standard she speaks quietly:: XO/CNS: I'd do as he says.
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Lies on the ground, not moving, not wishing to be attacked any further and hoping that Terrk has control of the situation::
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Eyes panicked, as he's never actually had to fire his weapon not in training or drill, he levels the gun at the stranger with Raybetz' gun, holding it steadily::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: Easy now, you wouldn't want that to go off again...
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::not looking away:: XO: Sir? Do I lower?
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CNS: Keep it pointed at him ::scans around to see who else is close enough::
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Grits his teeth, trying to stay calm, especially with Raybetz down there, on the ground, between them all. He keeps his eyes trained carefully on the CNS with the gun:: CNS: Why catek not understand you?  Just....deme Raybetz go.
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::hearing their voices confirm her guess she continues lowly:: CNS/XO: I had everything under control. Back out you can probably get back to base.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
Terrk: Sure... CSO: Back up slowly
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::coldly:: XO/CNS: He wants us to let this man go. This man who was helping me.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
XO: You had better hope he doesn't have a twitchy finger. ::eyes still on Terrk:: Terrk: We am not here of village. Am of farm.
Dr_Mills says:
::Looks to Davis, looking over his shoulder:: SOPS: Uh...Commander. There are people shooting at each other, near your team.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CSO: And I want to let him go, now start backing up slowly
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::starts moving back from Raybetz as well: CNS: You too back up but keep a good aim on him.
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::stares up at this "doctor," wondering if Mills has a terminal degree in bitching and whining::  Mills: What?
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::moves backwards, eyes on Terrk::

ACTION:
As Terrk continues to hold it gun steady, making no move as he waits for some response from these stranger...footsteps can be heard in the distance beside Terrk... Soldiers from the inside are coming to join Terrk.

CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
XO: Sir, we will have company very soon.
Dr_Mills says:
::Points for Davis, to see Varesh aiming a gun at a Mirrum soldier, with the XO and CSO with him::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
All: Move quicker ::starts backing up faster::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::moves up to the side of the XO and Raybetz, doing the opposite of the XO's orders.:: XO: If I go with him you can make it back to base and set up a perimeter before they follow...::takes a step back:: Raybetz: <Sorry> ::motions to the XO:: Raybetz: Teeruk.
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::stands and peers down the street, trying to figure out just what the hell Mills is getting at::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::sighs at Ivara's words and actions, can she never follow orders::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CSO: Better judgment, you don't fit in here and you are certainly not just going to walk off with them. ::tugs at her arm to pull her back from the crowd::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::looks over her shoulder at the two, narrows her eyes and offers Raybetz her hand::
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Gets to his knees, unbelievably confused, and accepts Ivara's help up::

ACTION:
A dozen troops with pistols and rifles begin filing out of the building beyond, taking up a line behind Terrk, waiting for his instructions.

CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::gives Raybetz a look as she lets go she starts to back up quickly:: Raybetz: <Sorry.>
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Incredibly tense, eyes torn between Varesh and Raybetz:: XO: Go.  Now.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
Terrk: We're gone ::starts pulling the CSO back:: CNS: We're gone aren't we?
Jaluk_Raybetz says:
::Just blinks some more as he stumbles a bit away, moving toward the firing line of his countrymen::
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Points at Ivara:: XO: She stays.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
XO: Aye sir. We're gone.
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
Terrk: I don't think so. She stays with me.
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::is being pulled away and not really resisting:: Terrk: <Sorry. Orders.>

ACTION:
Terrk motions, and the dozen soldiers cock their rifles.

Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Repeats simply:: XO: She stays.
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
XO: I don't want to argue with a dozen bullets. They think we're natives.
SOPS_Cmdr_Davis says:
::watches intently, not sure that rushing into the middle of this would be the best course of action, but finding it difficult to ascertain what exactly -is- the right course of action if that isn't it::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CSO: We'll be back shortly. Keep your mouth shut in the meantime. ::lets her arm go::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
CNS: Plan B, lets back up ::starts moving backwards while keeping his eyes on Terrk::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
XO: Don't worry about me. I'll be fine...::wants to make suggestions but doesn't.::
CNS_Cmdr_Varesh says:
::nods, keeps moving back, not letting the weapon drop::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::looks at Terrk:: Terrk: <I may approach?>
Jaluk_Terrk says:
::Nods to Ivara, keeping his weapon trained on the weapon aiming back at him::
CSO_LtJg_Ivara says:
::glances at the CNS and XO, smiles thinly, then turns towards Raybetz and Terrk walking calmly towards them::
XO_Cmdr_Conor says:
::shakes his head as he watches the CSO walk towards the soldiers and the distance between them increases::

EMP has disabled all electronics in the area. During the fifteen minutes, the XO will have the group pull back to an abandoned building in the market, including moving their injured.

In that time, Varesh will be able to get the drug ampules out of the hyposprays in their medkits, and find a tool to pry them open as needed, to administer stabilizers.

McQuade is MIA, not seen since he and Davis were headed toward the pier through the crowds.  CO and CMO are still unconscious, but stable. Good prognosis. CMO's condition is slightly more tenuous than the CO's.
