Ghost: "This is Glitch, the single greatest hacker I have ever known."
English
-
"I'd say the greatest hacker I know is Kasumi. But...you seem to be up there, Glitch...with what I just saw. Now tell us; why exactly do you need help with? Because I can still fight, if that's what you need." Vel had explained.
-
Glitch: "Plausible... I'm in the Mosaic Cloud, which just happens to be Eclipse space. My ship is currently damaged beyond repair and I seem to be in need of evac."
-
"Well then...as a favor for a favor, Brother." She responds. "Let's go kill some mercs; worked with contracts for the Black Suns anyways; why not?" She launched the Deimos in the direction of the Mosaic Cloud. "Wait...what planet? Just so that I don't land in the middle of a thresher maw nest or something like that." She asks Glitch.
-
[spoiler]they have the creds right? [/spoiler] Glitch: "Planet -" [b]The hologram cut off, the lights flickering back on[/b] Scorch: "Grreeeaat."
-
[spoiler]Yep[/spoiler] "Well...crap." Vel responded, as the VI marked about a few hours from the Citadel. "How should we determine where she is?"
-
Ghost: "We'll figure it out when we arrive. It's a cloud, how many planets can there be?"
-
...She was silent at that, as they waited for when the ship would break out of orbit. [i](Later...)[/i] [i]Bang![/i] The sound of the ship broke into orbit over the Mass Relay, as it arrived in the Mosaic Cloud.
-
Scorch: "Holy shit...." [b]As they exited, the passed by the destroyed Hulls of several ships and dozens of dead floated through space About 20 or kliks out, a ship was seen. Flanked by two others [/b] Ghost: "That's Glitch's ship..."
-
"Holy s***..." Vel responded, "Should we go full steam ahead? Deimos is friendly with the Eclipse, somewhat; there's always the stealth option...how do you wanna rescue your friend?" She asks.
-
Ghost: "Full Steam ahead. We're taking these f***ers down."
-
"Alright. Firing all ammunition." Velinnea replied, moving to the pilot's seat and take off the auto-pilot. Outside, the Deimos fired its Thanix Cannons toward both ships, along with its secondary rockets.
-
[b]The ships hulls were obliterated almost instantly, creating holes throughout the ship Their shields were down for some reason.. [/b]
-
"Huh...why no shields?" Vel asked. "Unless..."
-
Scorch: "Unless what?" Ghost: "They could all be dead.."
-
"We'll...let's see if we could find her in THAT ship." Vel had replied, pointing to the only ship that wasn't obliterated by the Thanix Cannons. The ship inched closer and closer to the ship.
-
[i]Nothing was happening, there a simplistic yet terrifying silence in the space around them [/i] Scorch: "Can you scan the ships for life signs?"
-
"Um..." she replied, looking for the probe button, eventually finding it and hitting it, targeting the center of the ship. [i]"Launching probe." [/i] The VI chirped, as the probe landed on the ship, scanning it.
-
[b]A singular life sign was detected on board, which seemed to be on the bridge [/b]
-
"I'll go get her. She's on the bridge; you guys make sure no-one else comes." Vel had replied, getting one of those small breathing masks that other people use. "Wish me luck." She replied, pulling out her M-11 Suppressor out, leaving Ghost and Scorch to find an entry point.
-
[i]Ghost's voice was heard over the comms [/i] Ghost: "The Eclipse ships are boarded to Glitch's ships at the airlock. You can go through one of the holes you punched into the ship, go through the Eclipse ship and then arrive at her ship. At which point you will head to the bridge."
-
"Thanks." She replied, following Ghost's directions. Before she went, she also grabbed a M-9 Tempest SMG, jumping to the Eclipse ship and made her way through it.
-
[b]The ship was silent, only a singular creaking heard every now and then. The bodies of eclipse Mercs floated through the hallways, and as Vel arrived at the docking area that led into Glitch's ship, strange robot like creatures were seen. They looked strangely like geth, a singular eye. Tallish, lean. Wait. They WERE Geth. What were they doing here?[/b]
-
"Geth? This close to Council Space?" Vel had asked, having her pistol at her side should they try to attack her. "Damn, if only Peacekeeper were here..." she mumbles...
-
[b]As she continued into Glitch's ship, she suddenly fell to the ground. There was air In the Hacker's ship... [/b]
-
She was breath heavily, pulling the mask off. She had dropped her Tempest SMG on the ground near her, as she looked around for any sign of Glitch...or the Geth.
