Alexandria Skye "All clear!" One of her ODST subordinates said. Alexandria couldn't detect anything on her sonar either, which reinforces the soldier's claims. She called out to her team mates to make sure that everyone made it to the LZ in one piece. Fortunately, all were accounted for, and the communications relay was undamaged. "Ok squad. Form up." She said into the communication grid the squad's helmets were linked to. She knew that she was well out of ear shot, but her goal was to be as quiet as possible, so she reframed from shouting with the external speakers. The squad quickly huddled around their leader. "Sniper Teams 1,2,3,4 and 5, get eyes and ears on the south, southeast, southwest, west, and eastern expanse and cover our flanks, I don't want anything sneaking up on us. Sniper team 6, you and I will be scanning the battlefield. Technician team will provide maintenance to the communications relay and broadcast our signal to command ship. Everyone else, guard the relay and the technicians with your lives. No of you wander anymore than 50ft away from me or the relay. Maintain your positions unless I say otherwise. Execute orders now." Everyone scrambled into their positions with eyes and ears in all directions, scopes ready to shoot whatever approaches. Even without her scope, she could see explosions, fire and smoke over the horizon, and unaided by her listening instruments she could faintly hear ballistic and laser fire in the distance. This made her appreciate the distance from the ongoing fight. However she still had her own concerns to worry about. All her ODST squad members were more well trained and equipped than the average soldier, but their small numbers made them to were if any sizable force were to close in on their position, they would be overrun by sheer numbers. They were not meant to enter the fray, only to keeps tabs on the ensuing battle, which could play a huge amount of importance in making sure the tide was staying in the Alliance's favor. Once everyone was done calibrating their weapons and bunkered down, Alexandria turning on her cloaking system to blend in with the sand. "The communications relay is up and running!" One of the technicians said through the comm-link. Alexandria then attempted to send out a signal letting the Alliance now where they and trying to communicate to the central command ship. "Central command, do you read me? Attempting to reach you" She said slowly and clearly. "This is Recon Squad leader BANSHEE reporting in. Recon squad has touched down safely and have eyes on the ground. The enemy has yet to detect our presence. We are currently stationed at LZ and awaiting further orders. I Repeat..." And with that re-utterance she waited for a response from central command to let her know the message went through.
