Tori watched Janxi go and nodded slightly. She then started pulling her helmet onto her head and walked by Six. "We ARE moving, Sir... But, I think, what the corporal means, is what is our priority? When we started, our mission was to rescue your brother and his team. Naval custom dictates we outta take care of women and children first. Is the civilians the priority, or are CS personnel?" At that, she moved to point to lead the team back to Eve.

As the team confirmed orders, they all realized they were still a member short. Shep was no wheres to be found.

"Aww jeez, not again! Janxi, you don't reckon the alligator ate him again, do ya?" Tori immediately got on the radio.
"Stripes to Gator Bait... Sound off. We're oscar mike."
She then looked over to Jin. "You ain't seen him either, have you?"

"Fox's sake, we lost him again?" Janxi began to retrace Shep's steps. "T, get my back, will ya? Sneaker? We could use yer nose..." At that, Janxi began to track the missing XO, retracing his steps after the row with Tim. She pulled on her helmet and readied her weapon.

"Copy Spots. I got yer six." Tori moved into stealth mode, following up her larger counterpart. She skinned her eyes for signs of traps, ambush or trouble, and followed Janxi close to give warning. The little cat seemed to get smaller, and moved on the balls of her feet for maximum silence. She was a hunter again, and looked around and listened for any trouble. She hoped Shep would sound off on the radio, but feared they waited too late and trouble was already upon them.

Sam curses under her breath. "Dammit! I really need to put a bell on him." Sam radios Shep, not that she has any faith that he'll actually answer, "Where in the hell are you?" Sam looks around for signs of where Shep cold have gone, heading in the direction she last saw him going, her rifle at the ready.

There was a pause before Shep answered in a hushed voice across the team frequency," Keep it down. We got a rat problem. Four for sure trying to sneak into the village from the east "
East would put them beyond the home Tim had gone in.

Tori looked over to Janxi and Nike. Even with a helmet on, both could tell she wore a big grin on her face. "Janxi? They're going to pay us a surprise visit? Maybe we should give 'em a welcome wagon." Tori looked over to Sam for approval. She gave Shep a click on the radio to show she copied.

Sam forces herself to keep a calm expression, but she can't help from sighing as she gives Shep a ckick on the radio to show she'd acknowledged what he just told her. Sam nod at Tori and says, "Go. I'll try to give Tim a heads up." Sam then starts to quickly head toward the home Tim had gone in to warn him of the incoming rats, keeping an eye out for signs of trouble.

Inside, Sam found Tim prepping an impressive arsenal on the dining table under his daughter's supervision while Corinne was quickly packing up a pair of packs with personal items and clothing. He looked up," What's up, sis? I thought you and your squad were set?"
Jin gave Nike and the cats a signal indicating he and his bow were heading up into the trees before departing the three mutant animals

Janxi the Shagcat nodded to Six. Killing rats came naturally to a cat, and there was nothing more she loved to hunt than a rat, second only to a dope ape. She gestured for Nike and Jin (assuming he is still with the team) to follow her. She made a slow, careful stalk to Shep's position, listening for rats all along the way. Tori was the usual point man, but Janxi was the better of the two cats tracking. The little cat would be close to alert them of danger.
She pointed to Nike, then to her own eyes and nose. Message simple, "Keep your eyes, and especially your nose, open." She felt the coyote could more than handle herself on a hunt, and knew they traded up to get a green beret over their last minimally skilled dogboy. Today was not the rats' day. Team Shagcat plus two would see to that. She moved so stealthy and was camouflaged so well, she seemed to blend into the swamp and became just another part of it.

Sam smiles at Anya and Corrine politely, trying to not startle them as she pulls her brother aside. She whispers quietly, "We've got rats. Four of them trying to sneak into the village due east, not far from here. I've sent the cats and Nike and Jin after them, but we need to get them out of here now." Sam glances toward Tim's child and fiancee before whispering, looking at Tim in the eye. "We've run out of time."

Tori stayed close, but none too close, to Janxi, watching out for ambush and traps. Janxi would have her mind on tracking Shep and listening for rats. She thought about what she would do when the cats and Nike caught up with them. Rats disgusted her. She looked back at Nike to see if she had detected anything with her nose, or if Jin had any other ideas.
Tori looked every bit like a domestic cat stalking a field mouse, albeit on two legs. She was silent and moved deliberately, possessed with the spirit of her ancestors. This was why humans domesticated cats, and this fact was not lost on an evolved cat. She was faster, stronger and quicker than humans, able to accomplish more than a human ever could. She was made to kill Coalition enemies, and now she was fighting the biggest mistake ever made by humanity, in her opinion. How ironic it was a rat, and she was a cat.

Tim looked at his sister, hesitating a moment before nodding. " Corinne, take what you've got and you and Squirt get moving."
Corinne was about to argue, but looked at brother and sister first," You two be careful. This family doesnt need any heroes."
Tim gave his wife a kiss before turning back to Sam," Lead the way, Captain." he smirked.
Nike and the Shagcats couldn't see signs of the rats, but with no fire erupting, they hadn't been spotted either. Then Nike caught scent of something. It smelled like... hot sauce?

Janxi paused on Shep's trail, under thick cover. This time, she focused on her senses. She listened for Shep, then for rats. Her ears swiveled like radar dishes as she focused for sounds of Shep's breathing and a human heart beat. Next, she listened movement she could not account for, an inhuman heart beats and rodent breathing. She stayed low in her stalk and waited for any sign of the enemy.
