((Mary is downstairs.))

Sarah growls as she fires. She then stops for a moment, and realizes what she is doing just as two more dropships come in. "Fuck. Run." Sarah turns, and runs toward the ONI building, diving inside.

Mary, downstairs at sublevel D4, sits back against the wall, scared of these aliens. The screaming of the man in the other room came to a stop. Mary swallows nervously. She thought the man was dead, until he was dragged back into the room, his wrists looking burnt. He is thrown beside Mary again, and looks at her. "Do not piss them off." He whispers. "Listen, you're a pilot, I can see that. If we manage to get a chance to run, we head to sublevel E2. There's a new pelican design there, and it works. It just needs field testing." Mary nods. "Yes sir." She whispers back.
