Ch. 5 Marlin Camp

[Mierin]

Seeing the new threat, Sam immediately steps to the side, letting the lizard men pass unmolested as she focuses on the croc men, shooting at the closest one with the third setting on her rifle.

[Janxi]

Janxi wondered where Socrates got his tactical training. If one had an advantage, like a good hide, in an uncertain situation, one did not give it up without good reason. The situation changed quickly with the gator men, and she had no intention, repeat none, of leaving a tactical advantage. Socrates said demons, and those lizards were anything but demonic.

Now gator men... Who knew what they were, but already, Janxi was taking them a lot more seriously than she did lizard men. She used her telepathy to select the same targets Tori fired upon. If one went down, she'd move on to Tori's next target. Massed fire on demons ensured maximum damage. Of course, they could always be immune to laser fire. Wouldn't that suck?

The croc man Sam and the cats had focused on stumbled and fell, but there were still four coming. Those four were focused on the barbarians with their gauntlet lasers, clearly seeing their greater numbers more of a threat.

[Tori]

"This ain't no fair!" Tori thought to Janxi. "Let's even the odds up for these here humans."

Tori, ever the queen of dirty tricks, targeted the gauntlet lasers and opened fire.

[Janxi]

"Good joke, T!"Janxi said telepathically to her partner. "That'll learn 'em!"

She took aim at their laser gauntlets too, then opened fire. The barbarians could maybe rush them if they were disarmed. Anyhow, it was a funny trick to pull. Her tail swished with glee.

The doctor seeing these guys seem a little more durable and seeing her team opening up on the gauntlets decides to continue her plan of head shots. Maybe as a sniper it will show more of her value to the team.

[Tori]

Tori watched the Doctor's shot find its mark, tried and true.

"Some damn good shootin', Santiago," she complimented quietly into her radio with a bit of a purr.

[Renekin Skywalker]

Socrates had watched the croc-men rize out of the water, with the sudden realization that he had misread the signal. Not in any horrible way: they would all be classified as "to be eradicated with predjudice" on any debrief. But a mistake was a mistake.

Socrates did a sort of spinning deke behind the tree he had used for cover, rammed his swords into the ground, and came out the other side, levelling his rifle and firing laser bursts a couple of the still-standng targets' croc-men heads. More to slow them down while the rest of the team re-oriented their firing patterns.

[dakota]

The croc men seem to be offended by their weapons being targeted and start to draw other weapons even as a second one goes down. The strange pistols they carry reek of TW as they aim and fire, sending what becomes a magical net towards Shep[dice=20+2] , Santiago [dice=20+2] and Sam [dice=20+2][rand=953011831149918459744395508929643544186883939466252124093211151]

The doctor attempts to dodge out of the way of the net.

Dodge - [dice=20+4] = 20

And follows up by aiming at that croc like creatures head.

[Tori]

Tori had a giggle as her dirty trick seemed to anger the gator men. They were far less dangerous with net guns than with laser blasters. Hopefully, the mob of barbarians would pounce on them and give them what for. Just in case they didn't, she targeted the one nearest Shep and opened fire, center mass.

[Janxi]

The big jaglion purred seeing the frustrations of the gator men as the two naughty kittens broke their toys. "Someone didn't get thamessage. There's a coupl'a bad, new bullies on the block!" She said it quietly to herself, but left the microphone hot on purpose.

Like Tori, she was through playing, and didn't want to see her team mates caught in a snare and potentially captured. Having developed a fondness for Sam, she took aim at the one harassing her, and let go a collection of bursts to chop the attackers into luggage.

"Get some!"

[Mierin]

Sam attempts to dodge the net (dodge: [dice=20+4] ) and she then shoots at the nearest attacker. (Strike: [dice=20+4], Damage if hit: [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] = 17 mdc )[rand=29402032756545869654348357093502162839133127302145068413705732219]

[dakota]

Two more of the croc men went down under a hail of laserfire, spurring the remaining two to retreat to the river. ( last shots in)

"Get me out of this!" Shep bellowed as he struggled against the net covering him.

The remaining lizardmen split up and disappeared into the swamp as a cheer came up from the barbarians still concealed in the bush

[Tori]

Tori maintained her hiding place in the tree. Just because the CS and the barbarians had a common enemy, didn't make the barbarians a friend. The CS gear they wore made her nervous. Plus, even if they seemed to stalking lizard men or the gator guys, didn't mean they weren't stalking a much louder CS team's air boat. Perhaps the reptilians appeared to be a greater threat in their minds, to a smaller CS team.

Her original stalk hopefully meant she remained unnoticed by the barbarians. A silent weapon that was only detected when she struck a target could help her concealment. Lasers were nice in that they had no muzzle flash from any angle other than head on, and no tracer. Quietly, she replaced her shotgun's silver clip with buckshot. She didn't take direct aim at the barbarians, but kept her weapon pointed at the feet of any obvious leaders, or the most well armed. If they were not friendly, she'd make short work of them. For now, they seemed alright, but looks could deceive. She watched and waited to see how they would respond to Sam, and how Sam planned to respond to them. Two feline operators in the hole beat a hand full of barbarians.

She did what she could to identify weapons and capabilities on the barbarians, as well as leaders. Hopefully, they believed an enemy of an enemy is a friend.
