A group of commandos stood in the doorway, gunning down the crewman. They stopped firing, and in stepped Calen Drasca. He had a smile upon his face. "Why the long face, mister Gerunar?" "You dog Drasca! We had an agreement!" "We did, we did. But, you know what they say. No proof of purchase. I'm afraid that the venerable Senator Cairax and I also came to an agreement about a certain amount of pay." Gerunar sunk back down into his chair "We are finished." "Indeed. But, I must say that you should take solace in one thing!" "What?" "Your ship, or whatever will be left of it, and your remaining funds will be funding my explorations and indulgences." At this, Drasca pulls out a pistol and executes Gerunar "Right. Let's inform Cairax of our success." They walk out of the control room [/spoiler] File 02: Tratheon System [spoiler] Hired for small scale war between two small empires. The gunships broke orbit, violently wrenching the occupants "Ready up Romeo squad! Hard contact in less than one minute! You will be meeting up with squads Triad and Canopy at the hill!" "Hey Shivers, you up for a game? I can guarantee that I'm getting more than you this time." asked Dogman "I'm for you." Scylla, the tank, stood up in the back of the gunship "He is above is, staying for thine to keep him company." "Either thou, or I, or both, must go with him!" came the roaring reply of the squad The back door of the gunship lowered, and the squad charged out into the maelstrom Glass went down with a bullet in his head, and a grenade detonated right next to Bucket "Rendezvous at that Thor!" They crouched behind the tank "We have two confirmed down." "Prepare to push for that hill!" "I got eyes on two placements that'll rip us to shreds." Scylla touched his helmet "Five seconds. Push now!" They sprinted up the hill, and the placements turned towards them, but before they could fire, three Titanics thundered across the sky, obliterating the guns They dropped into the trench, and Dogman punched a man in the nose, staggering him, and turned, throwing a knife into the temple of a man behind him, and turned around, placing a bullet in between the eyes of the first Scylla broke in over comms "Let's make a final sweep of the hill. " They climbed out of the trench and saw a shape in the smoke "Is that either Triad or Canopy?" "Tank! Scatter!" They dove behind cover The tank was reloading when exploded, and each squad member stepped out of cover, Shivers leaning on rubble "Tell me Dogman, how many points are tanks worth?" "Bastard." muttered Dogman "Hill secure. We have a gunship picking us up in five. Get ready." [/spoiler]
