[b]In the dead of night, the NCR Ranger Watcher traveled the war torn halls of the dojo, headed for the exit.
He had a bag, which was packed. It seemed he planned on leaving the dojo. But why? He trained many guards, and was in the middle of training more.
He stopped at the gates, and sighed to himself. He turned to the person following him [/b]
"You can come out now!"
[spoiler]Open! You followed him [/spoiler]

"I use special toys." He replies.
-
[b]One of the drones pucks something up, reporting back. Five Dead guards were found in a dead end cave [/b]
-
"Well, we found some of them." He shows Watcher the scans.
-
[quote][b]Watcher was silent. He looked down to the ground, then looked back up [/b] "-blam!-."[/quote]
-
[spoiler]I replied to that.[/spoiler]

"At least we know they went to the caves. Want to go take a look?" Cannon asks, piloting the ship towards the cave entrance.
-
"Yeah, let's do that." [b]He looked back up, calming himself after the sight of the dead [/b]
-
Cannon seems unaffected by the sight as he loads his blaster rifle and moves to exit the ship.
-
[b]Watcher followed him to exit, holding his rifle up [/b]
-
He steps out, checking the area with a sweep of his gun before moving towards the cave entrance.
-
[b]Watcher was hot on his heels, covering their six [/b]
-
As soon as they're clear, the ship lifts back into the air and begins to circle the island. Cannon moves in on the entrance.
-
"We sure about this?" [b]Watcher stopped for a moment [/b]
-
"You want to find your missing man or not?" Cannon asks.
-
"Well yeah..." [b]He shifted uncomfortably [/b]
-
Cannon laughs. "You aren't wimping out on me, are you?"
-
"Oh no, of course not. But these guys took down an entire platoon.."
-
"But that platoon wasn't packing the firepower I have. We'll be fine. I can call in the dreadnouht if tbings go bad."
-
"Alright, here goes." [b]Watcher jogged into the cave, turning on a flashlight [/b]
-
Cannon follows, activating his helmet and gun mounted lights.
-
[b]As we walk through the cave, we walk past the three Guards that were propped up against the wall. Watcher mumbled a quick prayer before he continued deeper into the cave [/b] [spoiler]Potential Lives Saved: 38/43[/spoiler]
-
Cannon scans the bodies, attempting to discover the cause of death.
-
[b]Bullet holes. The first, two holes in the chest. The second, two wholes in the chest The third, a shot to the head [/b] "Whoever did this was good." [b]Watcher had stopped to await Canon [/b]
-
"Agreed. On the upside they seem to be using plain projectiles." He takes the guard's dogtags (assuming they have them) and continues into the cave.
-
[b]Watcher followed took point, leading into the dark cave. [/b] "Freaky...."
