Blackout

  • Thread starter Jae- The nonexistant
  • Start date
Jae nodded. "Okay." she sent out a third scan, pausing. "They're coming to check the wreck already." she said quietly, glancing back at the ship which was now quite a distance behind them. "We should probably get out of sight." she said, taking a quick stride to catch back up.
 
Alice climbed out of the pod, not showing any pain or discomfort at the sudden change of environment. "Follow me," She said bluntly, "If anything, they'll probably be traps too old for you to hack. Like pressure mines or lasers." She pulled out a light from one of her pockets and attached it to her gun. "This'll help us see."
 
(Nova- there is about the same amount of gravity in space as there is on earth, also objects in a vacuum are slightly heavier than on the surface of a planet with an atmosphere)

Scrap sighed, noting the insanity of their situation. He activated a photon distortion emitter, fancy words he thought for a cloaking mechanism, and moved toward the moon base's hangar. He watched the alien ship scan over the wreckage his voice coming over quietly on his comm, " everyone still breathing?"
 
"Fonz and I are clear." Jae mumbled into her mic, walking backwards to watch behind them. She listened to Fonz's footsteps to guide her, sending out scans every few minutes to check they were clear. "I don't think they realized we escaped." She whispered, sounding like she barely breathed the words into the mic. She couldn't tell if they were going the right way or not, but they couldn't go back.
 
((You do realize that there is no gravity in space, right? So not only doesn't he have to lift the capsule, he is also not pulling the damn thing on his own, but with the board. And things are not heavier in a vacuum. They just don't have air friction anymore, which makes them fall faster (or keep the same speed when thrown in outer space). Their weight remains the same.))
Blade was slightly surprised that she could withstand the cold of space so easily. Later he would have to ask her about that.
Indeed. Wanna lead the way?
 
Jae listened carefully. Blade nor Alice answered..they switched frequencies? She looked over to Fonz. "It's quiet..Where is this base?" She asked into the mic.
 
" ill find the base right now " He said as he reached into one of his suit pockets and pulled out three small balls, he threw them forward and they bounced and opened up a little and emmited a small blue light. They then took off down the way of the direction they were going, fanning out and scanning and placing a map onto a map which he had stuffed away. it would show an construct and person that it went past since it was a scanning unit, he smirked and said " scanning units...always the way to go "
 
"Yes," Hunter said without hesitation, stepping past him and into the darkness. The light from her flashlight illuminated the cold tunnel walls as they left the crater hole behind. Alice was positive there were traps, but it was unclear to her whether or not they would be made just for the aliens.

( By the way, your drones won't be able to find the base, they'll encounter disturbances to keep it hidden. After all, they're the resistance. They need ways to keep the aliens from finding them. Isolated walls and all that)
 
Blade out the board on his back and let it stick there with a magnet.
With his sword in his hand, he followed Hunter and walked just where she walked, even stepping on the same spots she stepped on.
 
She stumbled a step as the scan beeped. Just a crater...again. She sighed. "I can't find a thing. Where did Blade and Hunter go?" She whispered into her mic, most of her attention still focused on how close the aliens where.
 
Alice kept walking, eyes flicking back and forth as she scanned the walls for anything unusual or suspicious. She stopped as she saw the slightest glint in the darkness. She held up a hand to tell Blade that something was wrong and she flicked off her light. Hunter crouched on the ground, gun at the ready. Once again, something flashed in the darkness, giving off a brief color of green.
 
Blade understood her warning and didn't speak. He kept walking, but was silent like a cat while doing so.
He sad a little green flash and lowered his body.
 
Hunter motioned him to stop where he was and slowly lowered her gun onto the ground. She crept silently to the right side of the tunnel, putting her hand on the wall. She reached behind her and quietly pulled out a wickedly sharp survival knife. Without warning she leapt forward in the darkness, moving like lightning as it engulfed her. There was a shout, the sound of metal clashing, and then a stream of pained curses.
 
Blade walked to the area where she ran to, wondering what was going on all of the sudden.
 
Two figures in black suits lay on the ground, weapons abandoned nearby. Hunter stood above them, knife already returned to it's previous position. The soldiers wore green night vision goggles and were massaging parts of their bodies like they had been hit with a lot of force. One of the soldiers looked up at Alice and sent an angry stream of japanese at her. She replied coldly, pulling a dog tag out from under her uniform and showing it to the pained man. "They're guards," Hunter told Blade in a clipped tone, "Not very good ones, either."
 
Jae sat down. She wasn't going any further if they were just ambling around. The aliens were far enough away that they were safe. "We need to make a plan."
 
((If anyone is still interested, PM me. I am unwatching this thread and letting it go down.))
 
"Okay. What if..First, we find the base. I can hack the systems." She said, pulling files up on her visor and searching as she spoke. "Once we get in, we get the supplies and get off this rock as soon as possible, because in a matter of.." The visor beeped. "10 minutes, the whole moon will be teeming with those aliens." She said, looking up at Fonz. "How's that sound?"
