These Lights That Bind Us

[Aerith Lin]

*I finish the rounds in the automatic and look towards the armored Truck roaming around*
ohhh... I want that. *smiles and runs around to creep from the back, I jump onto the roof as quietly as i can and grab a raygun and make my way into the cars passenger seat through the window, pointing the gun at the driver ready to shoot the second he looks at me...*

wait, Riley? Damn it! You beat me to it. Guess i better check out the back then. I'll report in what we've got in the back. *looks for the trap door behind the passenger seat then gets in the back and searches around.. Riley drives over a pot hole and staggers my steps a bit*

Oi! Try to keep it level out there!

[rileywilson]

*I laugh at the look on Aerith's face when she sees me* Try to keep up, ok?

*Aerith heads for the back and I keep running over as many vipers as I can, keeping a lookout for any BLI or Killjoy soldiers, but there are precious few. She yells up at me to keep it steady* Do you want me to take out vipers or not?

*I think I spot some BLI unifroms and head in that direction*

[Aerith Lin]

*sticks half of her body out of the trap door and towards the window with a rocket launcher in hand, I see a car with some vipers hiding behind them in the distance. I quickly aim and fire, sending the scraps flying everywhere*

Alright alright Just make sure to warn me if you hit something big. *returns to the back of the truck and shovels through the things in the back of the truck, looking for something useful*

I dont get paid enough for this shit. haha Which reminds me, Hows the new office, love?

[Sylvia Main]

*I'm dangerously close to swinging at Morand with my free fist when Aerith walks up and scolds us. I glare at her as she leaves then transfer the glare back over to the dickuloid. I'm once again interrupted from saying something when Wilson radios us back. I look at Red and she just shakes her head in denial. I frown and consider protesting but I know Red and she's determined. I glare back at Morand and hold out my hand.* My radio. Now.

[rileywilson]

Huh? Oh, I actually haven't been in it much. You know I'm not much of an internal decorator, so it's kind of blank right now, but the view is fantastic. Interested in a promotion?

*I casually run over some bodies, thinking nothing of it*

[Aerith Lin]

*laughs and takes off her helmet, letting her hair dangle down a bit, but its mostly in a bun held by a few pins*
Could be. Sounds nice. Better pay, more money. Nice office haha. I'm not sure what i would decorate either. *looks at riley and shoots a viper trying to climb the side of the truck*

But those little bastards like to keep me here in this line of work. I gather they don't like my humor.

[rileywilson]

*I sigh* If you'd just suck up to them once in a while, you know, do a project for them, laugh at their jokes, you could be so much higher up in the company right now. I know what you're really like and you know what I'm really like, we work well like that, but that doesn't mean everybody has to know.

[Aerith Lin]

*laughs*
hahaha What do you mean suck up? They're alive right? I thought that'd be a courtesy enough. Maybe you're right.

[rileywilson]

*I look over at Aerith, considering* Let's talk later...ahhh, here we are.

*I pull up to Morand, Main, and Red. They look the worse for wear and I take out a packet of some of the more powerful BLI pills from a jacket pocket. I hop down and stroll up to them* New weapons in the back. Update me.

*Red tries to push away from Main when she sees me, but she can barely stand. I nod and hand her some pain and adrenaline pills. I'm proud that she is holding up so well right now, but of course I don't show it*

[Sylvia Main]

*A van pulls up and Wilson gets out. I grab my radio out of Morand's hand before he can stop me and clip it back on my belt. I smile slightly at Wilson then Red suddenly frees herself from my grasp. I watch as she sways and keep in mind to catch her if she goes down.*

[Incendiary Aftermath]

*I come back to, my vision a bit blurry. Taking a flashbang to the face will do that. As i fire more shots my rifle clicks empty. I spin it around and begin clobbering Vipers into the dirt. I notice a fresh wave of Vipers coming from over the ridge. They look a bit thicker than the normal soldier. I pull out my raygun and fire at one of them. As he falls to the ground, i notice a small blipping light on the body. One of the vipers immediately kicks him down the hill and he rolls closer to me. I finally notice what the blinking light is and jump back* C4! They're sending bombers! *He goes off in an explosion of blood and dirt. My ears start ringing and i stumble back up* We... We need to fall back!

[Bullet Ringer]

*As we drive towards the city the amount of Vipers that keep appearing are increasing. I take out as many as I can but There really is too many* Erm, just a question, do you have a plan B? *I shoot a couple more before a wave of bullets shread up the end of the car* We need to get on the other side of that wall! Grenade? *Blackie hands me a grenade and I pull the pin and toss the explosive behind us, throwing some vipers into the air*

[Volume Virus]

*I come charging back into the battle with no idea what just happened, whirling like a dervish, shooting wildly.* We. You can run, but there's no way in Hell I'm letting these bastards win! *I fire two shots into a Kobra who's sneaking up on IA; one goes into his shoulder harmlessly, but the second hits him in the eye and he goes down.*

[Blackout]

*i grip the wheel tighter* not exactly, the bazooka has a few good shots left in it, and we only have so many grenades left. I think, and I can't believe I'm saying this, we will have to eventually get into the city and regroup with the other killjoys.*i get my gun and start firing one handed out the window*

[Bullet Ringer]

You say it like it's a bad thing *I load another battery into my raygun* There's safety in numbers and I hate to admit it but, these guys are a perfect example of that. *I let loose shooting at anything within range* These guys just don't quit!
