[b][u]The Aftermath [/u][/b]
[b]Axion Cruiser [/b]
Soldiers lay dead, both sides took heavy, horrible loses. We may have come out on top, but we payed dearly for our win. Blood and gore splatter on the walls, in the hallways, in rooms and even on the survivors. About halfway up a hallway, there lies a soldier who held a grenade when he was overrun. The walls had been almost knocked down from such a force.
Ships in the hangar are in pieces, flaming. A body hangs from a sharp piece of metal. The man hangs there, dead. The hangar is in ruins, flames, chaos because Ciri go to her ship. This move was bitter-sweet, it may have eliminated most of Del Fino's forces, but it destroyed everything in the hangar.
The entrance to the training room was a wall of bodies. Both friendly and enemy, some were missing limbs, others intact, a few were just piles of meat and bone at this point.

And then a killer whale drops from space and kills everybody

Welp, we're dead. RP's over guys.

Ginger walks into the room, a bloody wall panel strapped to his arm. Besides that, he appears unarmed and unarmored, wearing only a tac-suit that he usually wears under his armor. His face radiates confusion, and perhaps sadness. "Miss me assholes?"
-
Soldiers wave, stay silent or continue bandaging themselves as he walks through. Not a word is spoken.
-
Ginger recognizes the full silence that follows conflict, he of all people was familiar with that sickening sensation; that leaden feeling in the air after the deaths of your comrades. He honored the silence, and walks towards Python without interrupting the soldiers further. When he gets there, he stops, facing Python in the face. "What the hell happened here?"
-
[spoiler]Python is on the planet below...along with Minerva [/spoiler] Soldiers eye you as one speaks up. "We got hit by Del Fino. No supersoldiers to save us..."
-
[spoiler]Ok, then pretend I was speaking to an officer[/spoiler] "Del Fino? I thought that Au- Phantom owned that company? How did they get the resources to attack us again?"
-
[spoiler]K[/spoiler] "We don't know. They must have somebody on the inside to hit us this hard." You notice his stomach has started bleeding again.
-
Ginger looks down at the man's stomach. "Looks like something hit [i]you[/i] hard on the inside. I'm not a medic, but I can probably help you out." He reaches into a pocket in the suit, and pulls out a med-gel pack "Take some gel, and put it over the wound once we make sure there isn't a bullet inside you. It'll help you heal."
-
"There's already an exit wound, sir. The bleeding started again, it will stop eventually."
-
I walk in whistling, cleaning a blade "Man, quite the scene. Get some cameras set up and boom. Documentary on the horrors of war."
-
Soldiers eye you, shaking their heads.
-
I slide the blade into it's scabbard "You guys just don't get monetizing an emerging market."
-
They stay silent, obviously upset their friends were gone.
-
"You know, there's always alcohol."
-
A soldier eyes you, holding a bottle of whiskey. He sips some.

A gunship flies up from the surface of the planet, looking to dock*

The hangar is open, allowing you to land. [spoiler]I kept you out of the ship for plot reasons....[/spoiler]

[spoiler]figured as much.[/spoiler] The ship lands, and Galdes steps out*
-
He sees utter destruction and bedlam. Soldiers are dead, wounded or worse.
-
"Christ... What happened here?

[b]Joshua walks the bloody battlefield.[/b] "These were my friends... Brothers in arms..."
-
A few look up at him with bandages on their chests and heads.
-
"We'll get them for this, men. I promise."
