Janxi's glance fell on Nike to see if she smelled any trouble. A typical shagcat ambush would be to kill the occupants of a village and replace them with cats. When the targets showed up, they would get the welcome home of lasers firing in their faces. If Nike said things seemed clear, she would trust her on that front.
"Still no tracks..." (Does that mean no locals, either?) "Everything looks like a foxin' postcard 'round here."
Janxi continued to watch the village. This time, she was looking for sentries. Even in the best of times, anyone with half-a-brain in a swamp like this would post a watch. If there were no sentries, there could be an ambush.

Kai, kept her eyes focused around her and she too saw the buildings. She watched Tori's reaction, and if the smaller cat tensed she knew trouble was close by.
She relied on her own wits out here but it she didn't find it a bad idea to keep an idea on the animals and their reactions as well.
Kai kept her voice low but asked, "Do you want me to move forward and knock and see what is going on? I have spoken to the doctor before."

" I'm dropping back a bit while the rest of you move in" shep announced over the comm. As the rest neared, they could see and hear signs of life. Human life. tori, Janxi and Nike could all sense magic ahead as well, in the vill.

"Aye aye, Shep." Tori checked her shotgun and replaced her entry clip with buckshot. If there was room-to-room fighting, a scatter-gun was the best way to clear a room of unarmored enemies quickly.
"Alright, by the numbers then. I'll be on the door and Kai is behind me to say hello if we get a friendly reception. Everything here looks five-by-five, but ya never know. Janxi on the right flank, Martin you and Nike get the left. If tha rats gots an ambush, I'll take out the guy at the door, and we hit the room. Me one, Vamp two, Janxi three, Martin and Nike four and five. Light 'em up and clear your sector quick. Nike, you're tail end charlie, so you got the job of makin' sure nothin' bounces from the rear.
"I hope they all come out like tha Waltons, but if we're too late, then we're gonna have to take steps."
She advanced on the door indicated by Kai and waited for everyone to fall into position before the knock and announce. Everything looked and sounded right, but treachery was a rat's hallmark. She scanned for ambush and traps or anything else out of place, and relied on all her senses for trouble as she stalked to the door.

Janxi followed her smaller partner and took up the position the little cat indicated and waited for Kai to knock. She didn't see any sign of alarm from Tori, but like the other cat, a healthy dose of paranoia prolonged life. She watched the door nervously and waited.

Kai took her place in front of the door and hoped to hell it wasnt an ambush. Taking a deep breath she gave a silent nod to Tori. She curled her hand into a fist and hovered it over the door for a second before giving it 3 quick rapid knocks and then stepped back out of the way of the opening door and its occupant.

Unlike the others, Martin was positively at ease. Clearly, the others had no idea what they had on their team. Between Janxi, himself, and the others, there was almost no reason to fear anything but the most powerful of enemies.
He casually moved in the direction Tori had suggested, clearly with nothing better to do. He was quietly bemused that a mutant animal was given authority over a human. Nonetheless, he remained on his guard, watching the woods more than the village, not wanting to get by without his having a shot at it.

Tori nodded as Kai sought approval.
She took a step back and two to the left once Kai cleared out. She didn't expect an ambush, but the wise always prepared for the unlikely. It kept her alive.
As for ordering humans, she was the team entryman, and knew no others, including her larger partner, as qualified to hit a door. It was her expertise, and she would make sure it was done right, even at the expense of a human ego of lower rank. She was just delegating position from her second-best role. Goal one was staying alive.
"C-SOG. calling," called Tori. "We have a situation." She took one step further to the left and waited for Le Gross Bill or a rat to answer the door. Her safety was off.

Nike shifts to her position on the left, then lowering herself to a crouch, weapon at the ready; familiar with the tactics, the coyote keeps her ears open, at the same time glancing to the left and right and behind as well, making sure no one sneaks up on them.

" Just a minute." replied a sing-song voice with french accents. This was followed by a long series of low sputtering about interupptions. The door edged open with a young local woman peeking out. From inside, the stench of blood wafted out the door. " Please come back. We're in the middle of surgery."
" Heads up! get your game faces on people. This place crawls. We've got rats in the wire" Shep's voice came over the comm channel, a little edgier than usual. " Plenty to go around "

Sam smiles politely at the young woman as she says, "Please tell the doctor that we've got rats headed in this direction and they're not going to care that you're in the middle of surgery. We need to get ready to move and time is a factor." Sam looks at the others and says, "Keep your eyes open people."

"Now's mebbe a good time to show us some dafensive positions, Martin," Janxi said.
Her gaze returned to the answerer of the door. "We also need to know if you have any claymores, phougasse, firelanes or heavy weapon placements we'll need to man. We'll keep 'em off as long as we kin, but ya need to do yer knittin' doubletime."
The large feline checked her primary. Finding it ready, she awaited an order from Six, location of an ambush point, or information about AP equipment in the area. She made her way to some foliage and began to sweep the treeline for any signs of trouble.

"I'm Tori, tha team corpsman, and iffen an extra hand will get the patient ambulatory or at least litter-mobile quicker, and if Six is cool, I kin help." Tori's said with her tail swishing nervously. "We also gots a boat we kin use for CASEVAC to the Marlin Village."
She checked her own primary, but stayed near the door awaiting Sam's permission, and Beliveau's request for assistance. Like Janxi, she scanned the area for any sign of trouble.
"'Sides, I recon ya could use a guard during tha assault. Some could get by us, and terrorize. A guard that knows ALS skills is even better."

A girl in her midteens opened the door. " Doctor Parise says to come back later. He will be done in about twenty minutes." Beyond her they could see the doctor, along with two locals, were preforming some sort of abdominal surgery.
" Close the door, you let germs in." Bellowed a french accent.
" Okay people, I think I've been spotted. Got a squad turn towards me. But we have company... i repeat , COMPANY strength force coming right at you." Shep's voice came over the comm. It was the first time anyone, except mabbe Sam, had heard him sound nervous. "You've got maybe five minutes to dig in "

"Well if y'all got some fighters, ya might bring tell em to lend us a hand, sister! Right now, all ya got between yer germ-free hospital and proll'y over 100 rats, is two cats, a coyote and four humans! In 20 minutes, we could be neutralized, and yer hospital's gonna be overrun wif some really filthy rats. Ya need to hotel alpha, or git us some help, for fox' sake!"
She angrily slammed the door and turned to Six. "I guess leavin' em behind ain't an option yew'd consider... Permission fer me and Janxi to deploy some explosives as mines, to even the odds a lil, Six?"
