Well As only Solaire would sayAkibahara said:
ROUND THREE:
“Operation Bulldozer”
Can you hear that?
The soft hum of a series of helicopters drew into the distance, a heavenly chorus to the lost, but oh lord, a meal on wheels—wings, for THEM. A sleek, high-tech looking vehicle, it resembled a Comanche helicopter with no rotors, two large horizontal turbo-fans spinning silently, kept aloft by sound-dampening engines mounted to the fuselage. Five of them cruised downward, landing softly on the nightmarish landscape known as The Hoover Dam.
“Get in! Move! Move! Move! They're here!”
This... wasn't the BSAA, and they barely resembled the U.S. Army, an 'S.H.I.E.L.D.' logo was emblazoned on the Pilot's chest. Just as... BOOOOOOOM~ a rocket launcher trailed from the blackness, detonating one of the helicopter-esque vehicles in a brilliant flash, blowing the aircraft apart in a spray of shrapnel and flame. Hatty Hattington was thrown back from the explosion, but managed to make it into a nearby vehicle.
The Crossed have arrived.
You all separate, rushing into your designated fliers, but one doesn't. Solaire, spoke in a BRAVE and COURAGEOUS manner! “AH, GENTLEMEN, LET'S ENGAGE IN JOLLY CO--” Boom. His upper body suddenly blew up in into chunks. His helmet flies apart, sending shrapnel into the surrounding cemented floor. His arms are barely able to stay on as there is nothing to keep them together. His left arm begins to slide down, as if it were a strip of string cheese, yet the tearing of flesh was more horrific than this dairy product. Solaire’s chest was blown open, allowing his innards to spill out into a puddle before him. The singed intestines hissed while they lay in the bubbling pool of crimson red blood. He fell to his knees, reaching out towards Annie, as if her expertise at flames could have somehow saved him from his demise. The rest of his flesh curled out and burnt up, as if he were a miniature firework, which had only blown apart half way down. He toppled over, sending even more bodily fluids onto the face of Annie.
Who could've done that?! C4 charges? An RPG? Who would want to KILL him?!
Fuck it, the pilots weren't staying another moment longer...
The SHIELD vehicles soared into the sky in what appeared to be a second- billowing clouds following suit, bullets tinged harmlessly off it's metal hide- far, far into the inky darkness above. It was 4:45AM. Dawn was soon to creep up on the survivors, but someone, a -few- someones, were behind the murders: For corporation gain, wealth, power- shit you can only DREAM about... but who? Better yet, could you stop them before everyone perished? Oh, and majority vote went to The Golden Witch who indeed was a traitor you apprehend her as she awaits her final judgment...
ONE HOUR LATER...
You awoke: Only to be met by this...
5:45AM, the morning sun crept upon the horizon, giving the sky a dark blue hint. Normally, you'd be waking up, nice and soft, snuggling up in your bed. Not today. The helicopters landed, turning off with a soft whirr~ as you step out.
A man approaches you:
“I'm Nick Fury, Commander of the U.S.S. Romero and agent of SHIELD. You're one of our first set of survivors to successfully escape the Crossed and into our domain. Welcome. In such, we have an assignment we'd like you to complete...” A pause, “Unfortunately, we're short on manpower for obvious reasons. Meet up with me at 0900 hours sharp. Agent Phil Coulson will direct you around in the meantime.”
“Morning. I'm in a rush, but I'll tell you the basics of what's around here... it should be quite a break, really!”
- “We have our Requisitions & Armory: I'm certain plenty of you are low on ammo. So restock or pick out ONE new weapon. I warn you though, we're low on supplies. So please be courteous when selecting your firearm. Oh, and duh! I forgot to tell you, but we've found some strange, -strange- potions and liquids on our travels. Maybe you can pick one up? Maybe two? We're interested in seeing what it does!”
- “There's our Medical Bay: Need something taken care of? Just head right down there!”
- “The Holding Bay: We keep our prisoners kept in check and your friend, Lambadelta, I believe her name is, is held there. Feel free to take matters into your own hands with her. Please, we've also got a few prisoners -too- anxious to escape captivity. Ignore them.”
- “Cabin 42: Ehhh, careful about that one. There's rumors a few of our crew-mates vanished six months ago while trying to pick a few objects up. Most say it's haunted, I believe that, my friends, it's bullshit; probably some ghoulish tale to frighten the new recruits. I mean, I have no qualms if you want to visit, but be careful, there could be some truth to the rumors.”
Phil gives you a map... and he walks off.
