Private Gavin Jones "Lt. are we going to be using the dropships for overwatch or are they just dropping us and jumping out?" Raising his hand so the Lt. know who was talking. Sorry Jones, the dropship's strictly there to get us on the ground," Eileen replied, "Once we're landed they return." Sergean...

Date: 17th August, 2080AD Location: Barnard's Star, PT-554, Hangar deck. Operation: Training Op The arrows moved over the image and showed drop points, extration zones and target areas. Eileen stood beside the projected image, studying the image once more briefly before turning her attention to the ...

"Bravo Papa this is November Five Five speaking. We are advancing on the site and we are approximately 1 klick from the objective. I repeat we are approximately 1 klick from the objective." "Papa Bravo you can expect a bumpy ride as Mother Nature is showing off her darkside. What are your orders Pa...

Back on the USS Costaguana, Eileen Vincent entered the communications room, draining the remains of her second cup of coffee in the last 3 minutes. The cryosleep cobwebs were finally beginning to clear, and she nodded reasonably cheerfully to Priest as she entered, "Morning, Priest. Have we got a li...

Eileen climbed out of the cryo tube with her standard headache and need for about a gallon of coffee. The rest of the platoon sounded reassuringly noisy, although in some cases she could hope for a less disturbing choice of words. "Morrison, you will never put that image in my mind again. That is an...

"Self destruct sequence initiated. Self destruct in...four...minutes...fifty...seconds. Abandon ship. Abandon ship. Warning self destruct sequence initiated. Self destruct in...four...minutes...thirty...eight...seconds. Warning..." "Wonderful," Eileen muttered to herself. Just perfect. If the alien...

The unexpected silence took Eileen by surprise, it took her a second to realise it wasn't just the sudden absence of gunfire but the whole structure of the ship going still. She recalled the computer's warnings back in the CPU room. Right, that meant the silence was somewhere between not good and re...

Eileen, tried to make sense of the confusion of messages and information. A dozen different things seemed to be happening and she couldn't even decide which one to focus on. Eggs, approaching signals, whatever the hell had just hit Pyro, and Steel yelling. Morrison then turned to jog towards the eng...

Keeping alert, and in position, at all times - he commed in to the LT "ma'am, do we...carry on? I'm sure that this wasn't in our mission" He was stammering slightly - but managed to keep most of the fear out of his voice. "No one promised us the scenic route, Honeysett, just keep moving. Sooner we ...

...So here I am. What's the sitrep, ma'm?" Morrison continued, feeling rather on edge. But he knew that he had to keep it together, or people would get killed. "We've got hostile aliens on the ship. They're using the floor crawlspace to move, so make sure you keep an eye to the ground. Gagarin is c...

"Morrison?" Eileen repeated, trying to peer through the noxious looking smoke diffusing through the corridors to confirm what, or rather who, Green had run into. "Morrison? Grab that idiot, haul his arse up here, and explain to me what the hell you're doing here."

OOC: Okay, question before I post - if Green is at the door to the equipment room how did he get past us? If not... where is he? Also I see where the CPU room comment's coming from now. That's what I get for reading it through the last turn too quickly! Okay, let's add CPU room to the magical myster...

"Ron, get back here, now. Sarge, LT. I think we have got a runner headed your direction. It seems Ron has flown the coop. "Steel, stop that idiot," Eileen snapped at the Sergeant. Before she could say anything else Eagle spoke again. "Jacob, you should be coming on a turn to the left very quickly. ...

"They're coming again!" someone shouted. "They're beneath the floor!" someone screamed. Eileen cursed as first the lights went out and then all hell broke loose. "Keep calm, get some lights on the floor, if you see any movement fire." Before Eileen could follow her own instructions she saw Steele s...
