[color=teal]"Huh?"[/color]

Puck looked up from her pack as she zipped it back up. Something had just streaked through the bush around her. Something had met her eyes. It had even looked...human.

[color=teal]"Someone there?[/color]

She hefted her pack onto her back and wheeled around. Nothing but brush, bushes and trees. Still, she steeled her grip on her shotgun. They were here in search of something, and another human being in a forest like this was...something.

"Something up, Puck?"

Unmoving from his position atop the pile of stones, Cho turned his head slightly to glance at her. His stance was loose and easy, on one knee with his rifle resting gently on the other. Hands clamped onto the grip and the length of the rifle. The woman turned around and looked up at him.

[color=teal]"N-nothing, Cho. Just...I thought I saw something."[/color]

The Korean nodded and held a hand to his ear.

"Heard that, Earle? Yem? To your three o'clock, check out the forest there."

A pair of affirmations echoed in his earpiece as he gave them a thumbs up from across the ruins. To his left, Powers hopped down from the stone he'd been perched on and the automated turret whirred and buzzed into life. The machine was a tripod-mounted automatic machine gun with a biometric sensor within its computing block. The block, which was a small grey rectangle mounted to the left side of the housing, sought out a target based on what was coded within its database. It excluded anything it identified as non-hostile wildlife, like it did with the monkeys that scampered out of the brush and across the ruins. Once the sensor detected something foreign and identified it as hostile, the computer and camera tracked the target while its gun unleashed molten lead in the hostile's general direction. Not very accurate, but good for suppression.

McKinzie still stayed near his right, fiddling with...something Cho didn't understand on a tablet. Between them, there sat an antenna that extended some ways upward. It obviously provided them with communications, but what other functions it had...he was unsure of.

[color=yellow]"Aw yeah, deffo got somethin' here. Pickin' it up on my motion sensor. S'heading to our left and around us, I think."[/color]

Earle and Yemen moved towards the left of the ruins, where their unknown visitor was supposedly skulking around. Perhaps they'd find something, or perhaps the visitor was already somewhere else.
