Magazine after magazine was ejected from her rifle, dry and empty. If the creatures would come too close while she was reloading, even if her technique in that endeavor was rapid, Emilia would launch herself from the ground and land a few stone throws away. However, it seemed like a never-ending dance. The tiny moss things and insect-like creatures swarmed endlessly from somewhere across the landing zone. The area in which they fought the hostiles was located on the immediate outskirts of Steelwater. A central highway close by led straight to the inferno ahead. A scantily dotted forest and modest creek separated the World Eaters battalion from the city itself. [color=6598c4]“No, we need to move further into the city. There's always something bigger causing these tiny shits to come at you forever.”[/color] Emilia said while emptying her last magazine, standing back to back with Aaron. She swung her rifle aside and shouldered the shotgun she had secured from the armory at the CEC. [color=6598c4]“We should move through the forest cover and across the creek over there.”[/color] She said while pressing a couple of fingers against the communication device around her neck. Emilia frantically cast her eyes around the field to see what was happening and where everyone was. Luckily, the team was surely independent. This was the luxury of being in the [i]Special Warfare and Reconnaissance Group[/i]. Each member was battle-hardened, an expert in their field, and a leader capable of making their own decisions that would most benefit the mission. Emilia caught sight of the research station glass dome. It was way too close to the city and in an actual Danger Close situation. Not only were the creatures swarming it, although being kept at bay, but it was also at risk of being hit by the artillery shelling. Emilia adjusted the channel on her communication device to synch with the World Eaters battalion. The chatter quickly changed from more or less silence to full-on chaos. She managed to find and isolate the officer channel and interrupted their chatter without remorse. The area was rather safe with Aaron, Scylla, Amanita, and the others completely tearing the enemy a new one, so Emilia took the moment to address the issue right away. [color=6598c4]“Break-break-break. This is Emilia Lange of the UDF Guardian Corps. and Special Warfare and Reconnaissance Group. Who is the commanding officer here?”[/color] [color=c2c2c2]"Well, well, well. If it isn't WarDiv's favorite toy."[/color] Emilia sighed. [color=6598c4]"Who is this?"[/color] [color=c2c2c2]"This is Brigadier General Francis C. Hummel of the World Eaters battalion. And you and your band of freaks will not interrupt any proceedings that are currently underway. This city is contaminated beyond saving."[/color] [color=6598c4]"Do you see the huge dome of glass on the other side of the creek there? The one with the huge UDF text on it? Could you not shoot at it, maybe? That would be fucking terrific."[/color] [color=c2c2c2]"There is no victory without sacrifice, Lange. Surely McMahon taught you that—BwAhAhaHaHahHaA"[/color] The general said and burst into violently uncontrollable laughter before the communication channel was cut. [color=6598c4]"Fucking maniac."[/color] Emilia muttered while switching channels again. [color=6598c4]"Okay, let's move up. Across the trees and creek here, to the research station up ahead, just by the highway exit to the city."[/color] She said while pressing against the communications choker device around her neck. [color=6598c4]"Aaron! We're moving up, get to the dome as fast as you can—over there."[/color] Emilia shouted across a sea of bizarre things to wherever Aaron was, keeping the area clear. It was then that whatever incited the little creatures emerged from the creek itself. It was huge, slimy, with arms and tentacles sprawling from seemingly every possible body part. There was no telling what this thing was or had been before. [color=6598c4]"Fuck-There it is! Aaron! Over there—go, go, go!"[/color] Emilia tried to direct the man before everyone else—the dude was fast, strong, and a total wild card for the enemy.

It will be up and active until I describe it as dead by whoever attacked it last. This is where the combat 'system' plays its part, but it will not be visible all that much. Remember to put those icons in your post, 2 of them, if you want to. This is still completely optional.[/color] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/GSL69o3.png[/img][img]https://i.imgur.com/0GE0ksT.png[/img][/center] [/color][/quote][/cell][/row][/table]
