These Lights That Bind Us

[Max Griffiths]

*I follow the others, keeping my gun drawn but ready to run for cover when they start firing at us. I'm looking forward to the fight, especially since the anesthetic means I can't feel my gunshot wound at all.*

[Blackout]

*i stick close to Bullet as we head up the hill. My arm and leg were killing me, but I pushed the pain to the back of my head and ignored the best I could. I keep a death grip on my guns and stay ready for whatever they might throw at us*

[rileywilson]

*Tanks and Artillery? Shit. I radio the Tower asking for helicopters, preferably ones with large guns. They say they can send six in two minutes. I tell them to be on the lookout for artillery cannons. I tell them to send any available vans as well, but it seems most are tied up in inner city fights*

Allright, everyone, remember to go fast and silently and keep track of your partner. If anyone finds the generators, blow them sky high.

*My vision starts to fade again for a second and I instinctively grab Retro's hand so I don't fall. I'm stunned at my action when I realize what I'm doing. I look up at her to make sure it's ok. It is easier to walk with her support...*

*drives up to base and begins shooting vipers* i haven't seen you guys in a while... * shoots power outlet and blows up the side of a building* i missed being a killjoy! *jumps on bike and begins to destroy the vehicles*

[Incendiary Aftermath]

*Through the scope i see someone jump out of a car and begin shooting Vipers. I look behind me and see my team is full* Who... *I send a radio broadcast to the killjoy* Hello! This is Incendiary Aftermath. Who is out there blowing shit up? Respond!

[doctorwhen]

*grabs radio off zone runner* who else can make explosions better then you can?

[Sylvia Main]

*Red grabs my hand and I look down at it then at her and smile reassuringly.* Don't get yourself killed out there- don't play brave. If you can't keep fighting- Don't. *I'm completely serious when I say this and look her in the eyes. I know she won't listen but it's worth a shot. I don't see any of us coming out of this fight unscathed.*

[Incendiary Aftermath]

Holy shit. *I radio back* You always show up right when we need you! *I turn to the group* Alright guys, my brother is down there doing what I do, except a little better. Let's go help him out. *I radio Dr. When* Advisory, i have BLI agents and Killjoys. Don't ask... just don't shoot any Dracs. Today, anyways.

[rileywilson]

*I hear the BLI helicopters as we start towards the base. I have a gun in one hand and Aerith's extra sword in the other. The first helicopter begins shooting at the base, circling*

[redhavoc]

*I try to smile at Retro to reassure her, even though I'm not sure what she is saying. When the explosions begin the world raises in volume, but so does my adrenaline level. I let go of Retro's hand when we begin to run toward the base*

[Incendiary Aftermath]

*I am able to snipe the two guards and rush past them as i enter the base. It's very industrial looking and seems dangerous* Everyone be careful. There's molten metal everywhere... for some reason.

[doctorwhen]

*radios IA* got it bro, don't worry unlike you i have a bit of self control. *begins shooting vipers*

[Incendiary Aftermath]

*Radios Dr. When* Where are you, currently? We just hit the entrance. *I fire at a few Vipers and on round impact the armor and knocks me back* Bastards!

[doctorwhen]

*radios back* hold on i'll signal you. *grabs flare gun from zone runner* look up! *shoots flare gun*
