-
She nods, walking to where the Invictus crew were at. [spoiler]Timeskip?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Yee[/spoiler] [b]About an hour or so later, the Invictus landed by the alliance camp in its usual spot, with the crew filing out [/b]
-
Kasumi was still cloaked, not wanting to gain any attention. She waited for Scorch to walk up to the Invictus crew.
-
[b]sure enough, Scorch clambered down from the ramp and sat down on it while the others scattered throughout the camp [/b]
-
She tapped Scorch lightly on the shoulder to know it was Kasumi. Her M-9 Tempest SMG laid on her locks on her waist.
-
"We're clear. What did you want to talk about?"
-
"There's a Batarian cell. Their names are the Brother's Men. They want revenge for the Skyllian Blitz, AND for the Alpha Relay incident. So...they're going to do multiple things. One of which is to crash a meteorite straight into the human colony of Terra Nova." Kasumi explained. "I came here to get you guys to help stop it."
-
"Alright. What's the pay look like?" [spoiler]Ducking Hunters [/spoiler]
-
She basically b****slapped him for that. "Even I'm not that heartless. But you'll pick up a few creds along the way." She responds.
-
"Ow..." [b]He rubbed his face[/b] "Gotta make a living don't i? Whatever. Yeah im sure the others would love to help."
-
"Sure." She responds, walking up to the Invictus itself, and made her way inside.
-
[b]He adjuates his helmet before following her inside [/b] 'You want me to call them in?'
-
"Yeah." She responds, cloaking again.
-
"Well im not explaining this them, you are. So uncloak and get ready."
-
"Right." She replied, uncloaking and leaned back nearby.
-
"Alright here goes. Invictus crew please reply." [b]He waited for a moment as the crew checked in[/b] "I need everyone back at the ship as soon as possible. It's urgent." [b][i][u]Ten Minutes Later[/u][/i][/b] [b]The rest of the crew was standing about the galactic map room, each of them staring at Scorch and Kasumi[/b] Ghost: "So who the hell is she?" Scorch: "Our boss, she gave us a job." Ghost: "Well what is it?"
-
"Batarian cell on Terra Nova...they're replaying what happened a few years back, and are trying to use military grade weapons against the human colony. Alliance tried to dispatch their armadas to deal with them, but they've been impenetrable. We'd have to somehow sneak past their defenses and get inside." Kasumi had explained, uploading the coordinates to Terra Nova on the galaxy map. It showed the Exodus Cluster, where Eden Prime was, before moving to a Sector far from the planet, to a lush green planet. "Also, Noble.." the theif replied, simply giving a smirk and nothing else.
-
Noble: "What?" Ghost: "Nothing. Just one question really. Why do you care about some colony?"
-
"Two reasons. One of which is that those Batarians...they're being supported by Cerberus. They had used some secret project to get some revived agents in the base. Maybe we could convince them otherwise...or perhaps we could take the base and redirect its tech to our advantage. The second reason?" Kasumi had explained, pointing to the planet itself. "We save them, they could help the Alliance, which could benefit you guys in terms of riches and...well, supplies." She replied, smiling...well, from what she had on Noble.
-
Ghost: "Supplies, riches, allies. Man what a deal! What do you guys think?" Scorch: "I'm in." Serendipity: "I'm in." Iseph: "I concur." Noble: "Yeah sure." [i]Talath nodded[/i] Ghost: "Alright. Should we head out now, thief?"
-
"That's your choice." She replies, before motioning Noble into the room nearby.
-
[b]Noble and Kasumi entered the ship rec room, the door closing behind them[/b] "What the hell is your deal? All smiles and shit."
-
"So...are you and Miranda a 'thing' now?" She whispers, almost like how a child would spread gossip.
-
[b]He stopped, Clearly surprised at what she said[/b] "None of your business/"
-
"You sure about that?" She says, opening her Omni-tool to reveal a small picture of Miranda and Noble together. It was taken from across the street. "If I wanted to, I could send this to Jack and see the two fight...would be entertaining." She responds. "But...I could be able to not do that for a favor. Not now; later."
