<i>Spark - You thought you saw something move in a bush out there, but you're not entirely sure. Might have been the wind.
Hospital - It's still silent outside.
Solanaceae - "The equipment we can take care off. As for the application, it's quite simple, help as much as you can and will. There's plenty of things to do, and I'm afraid we can't afford to have people doing only what they're good at. But do you think we could move Black, I imagine this probably isn't the safest place we could keep him". As far as you can see, Black is stable enough that it should be possible to move him. It won't be too good for him, but staying here if the shooters show up again probably won't be healthy either.</i>
<span style='color:red'><span style='font-family:courier'> "Well, I suppose that would go well along with my orginial request which was to just help you guys liberate spaceport from their hands, going through any prerequisite targets as well, then leaving at the spaceport when it was running again." *Adrian nods, and takes a breath.* "So, when do we start? And will we be getting any extra arms? Just out of curiousity...* </span></span>
"Something rustling in the bushes, don't think it could be the wind as i dont see anything else moving like litter or leaves, can't feel a breeze either, wanna frag the bush ?" He asks Colin.</span>
<span style='color:DarkKhaki'>*Colin moves over to the door, removing the box from his weapon, letting the remaining ammunition in the belt dangle* "Yeah. Let me do it, I figure I've got a good burst of ammo left in this belt. Estella, watch our backs, Kollean, watch for anything that gets stirred up. Anthony, get ready to go. We may need to leave, fast." *Colin pauses* "Thats if no-one has any better ideas?"</span>
"Ready when you are." He holds his rifle ready and crouches by the door wat waiting for Colin to start firing. "Once you fragged the bush i take it we run ?"</span>
<span style='color:DarkKhaki'>"Then lets do this." [Colin leans around the doorframe and opens fire on the bush, using up the remainder of the belt]</span>
<i>Terran, Khaim - "Might be able to get our hands on a few weapons, but we're running out. Actually, we were planning on getting our hands on some more today. Quite a lot of the trucks running around are filled with weapons, and we should be able to get our hands on some of those."
Hospital - The machinegun breaks the silence, firing all over the bush. It doesn't take long before the bush is completely devastated, but as far as you can see, no one was there.</i>
*Svetlana frowns.* “Well, true, I have managed to stabilise Black… but… I still am not too keen on moving him. However, I can appreciate your point about not remaining here at the scene of the attack.” *She shivers involuntarily as she glances at the pock-marked walls.* “Basically, his condition has a greater chance of deteriorating if he is moved. Admittedly, he is coping a lot better than I originally anticipated. All I’m trying to say is that if he does crash then I may not be able to stabilise him again. You have to be prepared for that eventuality if you decide to take the risk. If so, where do you want to go? And aside from caring for Black, what else do you want me to do?”
<i>Solanaceae - "We'll have to take the risk, can't afford to stay here. As for what you can do, I'm not entirely sure. For now, we're going to another hideout. One of the more involved resistance members are there, he'll probably have plenty for us to do. Anyway, let's try to get black down to the car". Alexei pockets the note, then begins to pick up Black</i>
<span style='color:Teal'>*Raziel fiddles idly with his gun straps, making sure everything is fitting snugly, but not too tight.* "Alright, so what's first order of buisiness? And how will we contact you after this? ...Or do you contact us when you need us, all 21st century action movie style?"</span>
<span style='color:DarkKhaki'>*Colin smiles* "The lack of return fire was my clue..." *Fits the belt into place and then closes up his weapon* "...If you want, I'll go first" *Pulls the chaging handle fully back and releases it, returning his hand to the pistol grip*</span>
<span style='color:orange'>*Estella chuckles softly to herself, before waiting for the others to exit. She then checks the corridor for the last time, and follows them.*</span>
<span style='color:red'><span style='font-family:courier'> "Well, I certainly see that badass rifle of yours has gone to your head.

"Ill watch the right side." He says to everyone and steps out the door and aims down the right side of the building. "Not such a good idea going back to your hotel, incase some of them are following you and know where you live."</span>
“Alright, let’s get out of here then.” *Svetlana moves to the other side of Black as Alexei and the other man attempt to pick him up.* “Wait… wait… you’d better let me sedate him first as he is already in great pain and any movement will only exacerbate it....” *She injects Black with a sedative agent and pauses briefly for it to take effect.* “Okay guys, just try to keep him level and move slowly.... I’ll monitor him. Let’s go.”

[i]Khaim, Terran - "There's no specific plan for time and location, given the fact that the trucks tend to move. But so far, the idea is to move out there and try to rip some of the trucks, since they're not TOO well guarded. At least not all of them. We'll just have to leave the guarded ones be. As for who's going out, I'm not sure. Contact is kind of flexible, but you'll want to remember this place, since some of us return here regularly. Could be a way to regain contact if all the ones you know happen to, well, get lost."
Solanaceae - You get him down to the car. Getting into the car, you drive to another part of the city outskirts. Alexei stops the car in front of an old, abandoned hotel.
Hospital - As you step out the door, you find out they've been sitting there all the time, waiting for you. Bill and Sparks have time to make it outside before hell breaks loose on you.
