Everything was going according to plan, it was glorious! So much data flowed into his Omni-Tool until suddenly there was none left to take, causing his Omni-Tool to give a satisfied beep. Perhaps that was not the best word to describe the sound he heard, but seeing how easy it was to get what was required, he believed he did much to help out. While it may not have been combat related, and with several bits of information flowing and reappearing in Rayes’ thoughts, things could have been a lot worse. It even seemed the threat was being taken care of, with wounded instead of dead…

But of course, nothing is that simple, is it? Within moments of completing the download and standing up, he took note of Anderson approaching. He was seemingly concerned with Rayes state of being, something that caught the Quarian off guard. Normally it was a human to throw an insult or literal jab, but Anderson was doing the opposite. He must have turned his head slightly in confusion before the alarms went off. The Quarian could not do much to silence the noise coming in from his mask, forcing him to hold onto the edge of his mask and stare at Anderson’s direction, noticing the position of the scientist and button. Slowly, he walked towards the duo, watching as Anderson pressed the button… But there was no silence. Instead, only screams told in stories could be heard, evil and vile… What was it?

He would get his answer soon enough. Husks.

“You bosh’tets!! You were experimenting on them here and decided to release them?!” The Quarian yelled at the scientist, furious at their stupidity. The glimpses of reports explicitly said they were experimenting on husks, but at the very facility they were stationed at? Wouldn’t the blueprints provided have noticed such a place where experimentation could take place? Rayes scrunched up slightly, a strong desire to just shoot the scientist and be done with him swelling inside, but as he was given the battered old fool, he forced himself to take a long breath in an attempt to calm down. Anderson just told him to make sure the scientists were kept save and not allowed to ‘disappear’. Well, he certainly wasn’t going to let the tuho out of his sights, or the woman who had answered the question of husks.

And while he got into the middle of the group with them, he was terrified and pissed, and for good reason. He couldn’t remember a time he’d seen a husk in person, only in recordings or told in stories about the Migrant Fleet. During the Reaper War, he was more concerned with Rannoch, and then was away from all the conflict on the Crucible. This was his among his first experiences with them, and as such, he was not sure what to expect. But turning around when he heard a burst through the door caused him to stare in shock for a second. Those monstrosities, those freaks of nature were husks? No… they were not of nature, they were vile creations, vile experimentation on the biology that only a Reaper could think of. As they began to move, he watched as they viciously and cruelly tore the Cerberus troops they had abandoned behind. It was a sight Rayes was likely not to forget for a long time.

He shuddered as they moved, attempting to focus, but the rush of a Quarian equivalent of adrenaline was happening, “Focus, focus, focus…” He kept repeating under his breath, clutching his pistol and holding the trigger, causing the weapon to begin to activate and glow. Whatever he’d aim at was sure to be blown away, either entirely or a portion. Give or take. He knew he couldn’t dwell on the situation, but seriously, this wasn’t an everyday occurrence for the poor Quarian. He was a scientist, not some soldier. If he knew he’d be going up against an unreasonable amount of Husks, he would have brought the Arc Projector instead, though he realized in that split second he would be extremely slow if he had. Guess he dodged a bloody, Husk hand there…

When they arrived to the first of two rooms, Rayes did his best to take in as much information as possible, just as if he were attempting to work on some sort of tech. At first, it did not appear as bad as it was about to. The room was some sort of abandoned mess hell, plates left in place and utensils here and there. It was actually quite spooky, given their current situation. But the room once void of life besides the team was soon filled with the screeches of what sounded like death itself pouring from various entrances. Not only that, but from above as well, several came down. Had it not been for the Geth that got in front of him, he surely would have…
He shook his his head, aiming at one of the plentiful husks who were tore at S’Geth. The shot he had prepared beforehand desired to find a suitable kill, and that was satisfied when the head of one of the things was obliterated. But there was no time to charge another, and as such, he allowed his Omni-Blade to come out, beginning to hack away limbs in an attempt to save S’Geth. Their efforts seemed rewarded enough, as they forced the husks away from the scientists and killed those who had jumped on them. 

So that’s what it felt like to cut through flesh and tech… It made him shudder once more. He stepped on a cut off husk arm, kicking it away in disgust before pulling his pistol up and firing nonstop this time, forgetting the charge function. There was no time for a massive blast, there was only time to kill. He watched as a husk charged from the side, forcing him to activate his Omni-Blade once more and thrust with all his might. It punctured straight through the chest of the creature before he drove it upward, slicing it in two… He nearly wanted to vomit from the situation as strange liquid coated his arm, most likely whatever could be considered the blood.

Shooting, stabbing, and a hell of a lot of shoving and picking up scientists, they eventually made it to the other team. Rayes shoved the scientists as much as he could behind S’Geth as they advised, having overheard talks of explosions and collapsing the system on top of the husks. He continued to shoot his Arc pistol at several husks before deciding to add his own input into the matter.

[color=#B0C4DE]“What kind of explosives, exactly? If you want to create a large enough explosion, I could incinerate one of husks with a fireball from my Omni-Tool, but I would require someone else to follow up on that. Something like a grenade, the type should not matter, will cause a large explosion… a large, fiery explosion… Things in the vicinity will most certainly be vaporized, and by vicinity, I mean around the original husk.”[/color]


It seemed logical enough to Rayes, light something on fire, and then throw in something highly combustible to create an explosion. Though, as the horde began to inch closer, Rayes began to inch backward. He had given a suggestion in the heat of the moment, but ultimately it was up to the two Spectres to have the final say… All he could do now was shoot with his pistol.
