<b>Hudson: Commander, are you sure?</b>
<b>Commander Genisis: Hudson, you have to trust my judgement. Work as a team and I'll get us through this.</b>
Then and there Hudson shook his head, I could see the doubt in his eyes.
<b>Hudson: Sorry sir.</b>
Right then the only female marine in our little group phased in through
<b>Hartman: (Shutters) Whew, I don't know if I'll ever get used to that. Your body just feels so... ugh.</b>
<b>Genisis: Hartman what are you doing back?</b>
<b>Hartman: Oh yes. Sorry sir, one of those flyers is annoying pumping station's turrets.. I was wondering how the research is going on jetpacks.</b>
<b>Genisis: You have a pistol don't you? They may not be human but they most certainly have eyes, go work on your marksmanship.</b>
<b>Hartman: Right away sir. (Phases away)</b>
I wish she hadn't
<b>Hudson: Woo Valdez, looking at her kind of funny aren't ya?</b>
<b>Valdez: Oh shut up, let's head out.</b>
<b>Genisis: That's it Valdez.. no fear, no loss. Trust yourself.</b>
That's when I hear it, the tiny clicks on the metal floor.
<b>Valdez: Oh ho ho, time to introduce you critters to my TSA issued Light Machine Gun.</b>
Hudson and I exchanges looks and nod.. we quickly ran out side and looked straight up, firing half a clip each into a green blooded Kharaa.
<b>Hudson: Woo! let's go get some more</b>
The wall-walker now lay dead on the floor.
Genisis gave us a command to head into stability monitoring.
<b>Genisis: Here's a little theme music for you boys.</b>
Right then we hear Metallica start playing in our helmets.. 'Hero of the Day' if I'm not mistaken. I reloaded my gun and climbed the stairs; Hudson following close partialy covering our six.
<b>Valdez: Uh sir, I haven't ever been down here on the ship before. You say this bacterium stuff has set a perfect location for one of their hives up ahead?</b>
<b>Genisis: Yes Valdez, oh and past that tunnel ahead there are a lot of pipes and vents.. so watch yourselves. I'm not seeing any motion near you though.</b>
<b>Hartman:(On Radio) Yes!! Flyer down!</b>
Maybe I should of keept in focus.. it was probably my thoughts of Hartman that got me. I heard the clicks of their feet, faintly. Saw Hudson get infront of me, but that's it.
<b>Valdez: HUDSON!</b>
My gun fired... I remember a lot blood, a strange mix of glow-in-the-dark green and Hudson's deep red. I dunno what happened next really.. I think Hudson's machine gun mis-fired straight into my chest, protected by my nano-armor. I hear Hartman on the radio, a swooping sound followed by her screams and a loud bite. I heard the mines go off in base at a distance.. I wonder if the command chair's resistance to heat is protecting Genisis. I hear the little Kharaa hit the floor about twenty feet down, Hudson got one before he passed on. I saw an Emergency Medical Pack appear out of thin air and swoop through my body. I've been crumpled up next to this computer console for god knows how long. I dunno if this is sweat or my tears. I'm so confused, so lost. They knew where we all were. Like they sensed all of our seperate fears. They're too smart, we under-estimated that. I've only got a clip of my pistol left for ammo, and I'm not sure who to use it on. Maybe that waddling alien I hear coming, or maybe give the nanites in my blood something a bit harder to fix.
