Mary turns in a hurry, looking between trees and rocks. "Don't take long, there's another squad. I can't see Gus, so they're not friendly. In addition, they probably own the bots we just levelled." Hefting her rifle, she chooses a path that'll head them back to pecos (land Navigtation: rolled 15%). "We should head this way, ma'am." She says to Sam, pointing. "It's uneven enough to make trailing difficult, but we should move out before we're in thermal range."

McCain splits the gear up between the three of them and before they head out he places a grenade under Greer and pulls the pin, "A little suprise for our friends if they decide to disturb him when they come by." McCain leans down and whispers to Greer, "Get a couple for me." he then gets up and follows Mary.

Sam nods at Mary "Yes, we should head out ASAP." Taking one last look at Greer, she heads in the direction Mary indicated. On the way, she asks "Are you going to be ok, Dyson?"

Dyson pulled on his helmet so she couldn't see his face. " Yes ma'am. We best get moving." He replied to Sam gravelly. " I'll bring up the rear, LT." He motioned for Sam to to follow the others.

Sam nods at Dyson and follows Mary as they head towards their destination, keeping an eye out for any potential attacks.

With the torrid pace that Marianna set, the squad never saw any signs of their pursuers, though at one point a muffled explosion echoed acrossed the pecos territory. Something ahead grabbed Marianna's attention. A sign, poorly written and staked on the trail's edge read," Dis land claymed in the nam uf King Macklin. Dis is yer only warnen" To emphasis the point, a trio of CS helmets with laser holes through them hung from the bottom of the sign.

Sam raises an eyebrow at the sign and whispers over the radio to the others. "I doubt I need to say this, but keep your eyes open folks." Sam moves cautiously keeping an eye out for potential ambushes or traps.

"Awwww...." Mariana recites a reather flamboyant Spanish curse. "Why did he have to come here of all places. Talk about holding a grudge." Turning to Sam, and looking around even far more suspiciously than normal. "I don't think we need to pursue him beyond these borders, Ma'am. There's no indication that he actually entered Macklin's turf, though it would fit his profile, and explain the knife." He grunts, having already lost her side of the arguement. "Good news is you won't need to make up a name for me here, they know my face very well."
Mariana looks to make sure the helmets don't have the tell-tale Shepness to them.

McCain walks over and pushes the helmets so they clack together, "Looks like a friendly place to me."

" You still thing Shep came here on his own, Sarge?" Dyson asked nervously, watching McCain play with the helmets which none of them look like Shep's. " What do you mean, they know you? Have you got a price on your head down here like Shep does?"

"It's entirely possible. He faked his own death, remember. He wouldn't do something like that if he wasn't sure what he was doing." Mariana says. "As to why, well... I can inform the LT, but that's only to describe the level of risk involved here, after that, she can make the judgement on how to proceed. At this point, McCain, Dyson, hide your helmets and gloves, and start looking like mercs."
Mariana pulls Sam aside and says in a low whisper, making the other two aren't paying attention. "I killed Macklin's brother. It was my last mission before CSOG, so it's pretty fresh here. My tattoos are specifically recognizable, and I went as Mary Rose at the time. Simple details, big problems, Ma'am."

" Someone faked his death." Dyson corrected as he pulled off his helmet and gloves. " We don't know it was Shep himself."

McCain smiles, "I don't think any of us are going to be confused with merc's, all of our gear is a little too new. We could always try playing deserters."

Mariana pulls out her vibro knife and scores a few marks along her armour, then starts rubbing nearby earth over herself. "Trust me, mercs here will be using this stuff too, since it's salvage. You just have to look used."
