The wait for a reply felt like an eternity. The lieutenant's jaw clenched then, "Lieutenant, this is Greenfield---- heading to the---- mall. We have -confir---- civi--an--- there that wil-- need an ex---tract. RV--there. I'll b---wait--. G--enfield, out." She patted the pilot's shoulder,
"Do you know where that is?" she asked the man. She knew the layout of the city from a book and map standpoint. But knowing which streets and back alleys to take...no, that would need to be something she learned in the field.
"Yes, Ma'am. The other birds will be dropping their payloads along the way to try and clear a path. I'll drop you off at the thickest part of the enemy forces along the route. According to the scans, that should be near the entrance." He said as he managed to hover over the designated LZ. Unfortunately, there was a line of husks approaching the LZ...therefore the mall. On the other side of the transport, a brute and some marauders were trying to break into the mall. "Orders?"
"Gunners." she smirked from behind her helmet. She smacked his shoulder then moved to the transport's sitting area. The side doors opened as the transport lowered towards the ground. Soldier classes lined up on either side of a turret aimed at the Brute's side. "Fire." The lieutenant said before she fired off a biotic Reave. The biotic attack impacted a group of husks. Then, she was gone, merely a flash of blue biotics. Some of her troops watched the biotic explosion. Husks went flying in a mess of parts and cybernetic fluids. She grunted when a group of husks ran to thrash at her and one of them slammed against her barriers. She backpedaled quickly then rolled backwards to gain some space. This was what she loved...she couldn't stop the smile from her face.
She threw a Warp attack at the group that came at her. Once the group was incapacitated she jumped in the air, her body glowed purple. She slammed her fist into the ground, which created another round of biotic explosions. She biotically charged, towards the back of the group of husks. At the signal, Soldiers began to fire at the exposed and distracted husks, mowing them down in a hail of gunfire. She grunted when a stray round impacted her barriers. Nonetheless, she quickly jogged over to her transport and issued out orders. "Alright. Clear this area. We wait for Greenfield to make his appearance, then we'll secure the mall up ahead. Any questions?" she asked. They all saluted then called out,
"No, Ma'am!" they all called.
"Good. Now get out of here." she grunted. "Make sure the Infiltrators get to their positions, Sentries. Soldiers, get with the Vanguards and start getting rid of the Reapers. Set up a defensive position."
"Uh, Ma'am? You're...smiling." A young man said unsure.
"Yes, Kilika. Yes I am." she grinned at the man then dismissed them all. She waved at the pilot as he took off. "We're on our own now ladies and gentlemen." she said.
