"Shit! Nike and Kai are down!" She knew they were gone but made it a point to punish as many of the rats as possible, just in case either was still alive.

Then she saw what could have been a muzzle flash, and glassed the area with her scope. "Sam, Skipper! Possible contact ashore, forward (port or starboard as appropriate). It could be Shep!"
She looked around the area of the muzzle flash and fired at any confirmed rats she saw in the area. Any doubt as to the target, she would hold her fire.

Tori noted Janxi's suddenly errant aim. Seeing two comrades brought down was horrible. Still hoping a third was alive was bound to fox with anyone.
"Jay-Cat? I need you to focus. You're still a scout sniper! Get some, ooh-rah?!" she shouted to Janxi to square her away. She abandoned naval dialect to speak to Janxi in her native dialect: Marine
Then her big partner said something that grounded Tori. Someone was still alive that should be dead. She Followed her partner's lead, scanned the area of bank for anything without a tail. If she found such a man, she'd light up every rat that was nearby.
For now, she paid no heed to Beliveau and his people that got Nike and Kai killed as they tried to save an unsaveable patient. The hippies too busy playing doctor in the swamp than set a defensive perimeter and set out watch positions to defend their hamlet.
She paid no heed to the boat's skipper and crew. While they marveled at two shagcats, she could sign autographs later right now, if Shep was alive, he needed defense. Kai and Nike needed revenge.

Sam feels upset when two group members get cut down by fire and curses this mission and, for a second, her brother for deliberately staying away and making her come and get him. Thinking of Tim makes her think of Shep and Sam hopes he's all right, thinking 'He's too stubborn to die'
Seeing the muzzle flash, Sam looks through the scope on her rifle to get a close look at who is holding the weapon, hoping Janxi is right when she said she thought it was Shep.

Because of the distance from shore, combined with moving targets and the boat's movements, all the survivors could tell was there was a running gun fight on the shoreline ducking in and out of view headed away from the battle scene, with a single human being pursued by at least three of the rats.

"I got three tails chasing a no-tail, Six."
Tori took the opportunity to light up everything with a tail in the general area with a non-tail. Then she looked at the boat's skipper. "Corporal Janxi? Rip this man's arm's off if he don't go over there and rescue dat man!"

In and out of clearings, Tori and Janxi could only confirm two kills, though the fire seemed to lessen.
The skipper replied, " I can't get real close, this thing's taking on water now and the pump can barely keep up. That shore line is shoal water, I might get with in fity or sixty yards, but thats about it without running aground. Threaten all you want, but I'm not sinking us."

Sam considers this for a moment before nodding, "Go. Be careful. I'll cover your backs."

The skipper shook his head," You folks is crazy. I'll see what I can do."
The fishing boat began to close on the shore, close to a bend in river a little past where they saw the running gun battle on shore last. He finally stopped inching forward fourty five yards from the shore. " We're aground now, but the tide is comin so the motor can reverse of off."

As the boat closed on the shore, Tori slapped yet another fresh clip into her rifle. No sense wasting time in a firefight with something as mundane as that. She did the same with her side-arm and returned it to its holster.
She debated about using her swim-fins, but decided a bit of buoyancy would be enough, as this close to shore in a swamp, there would be very little depth. "You got it Six. We'll bring 'em back alive."
Then, the boat stopped. Tori looked over at Janxi, "Alright, let's go!"
Tori swung herself over the side of the gunwale and began running-kicking and clawing her way to shore. Any target she could confirm was not Shep, she would light up. Amphibious landings were second nature to SEALs and Marines, but were never easy or fun. She fought her way towards shore through the water, mud and muck, dodging fire and killing anything and everything that took a shot at her.

"Just take 'em all down an' fight our way to Shep? Yeah, copy that."
Janx replaced her own eclip. She contemplated adding grenades back into her rifle, but there was no time for that.
With Tori's shout, Janxi yelled, "Ooh-Rah!" and leaped over the side. At least nobody remained to lecture her about battle-cries.
She fought along about 10 feet from Tori, blasting at anything with a tail longer than hers. "Shep! Hotel alpha! We're leavin!"

" You's got some crazy people, Capt'n." said the deckhand said to Sam as he watched the cats go ashore. From the deck, she could see that things had not completely settled down on the shore, and who ever the rats were after hadn't given up the fight yet as...
The boat had only been in five feet of water when the cats went overboard and their training made the going easy. They could tell there were more rats ashore than they could see from the boat, and at first they were easy pickings. but as their numbers soon started to drop, they turned their attention and began to fire back. Two suddenly appeared in front of Tori with Splugorth rifles but...
A distant pop and the two rats in front of the smaller shag cat were airborne, body parts flying in multiple directions from a frag grenade impact just far enough that Tori only took a smattering of flying debris. Where the shot came from was another story.

Janxi looked around for anyone without a tail longer than her own, and shot whatever did not fit the description. Tori's song was a favorite among shagcats, and Shep would know who was here for him by the caterwauling. She took over the bridge of the song.
"Admire me, admire my home.
Admire my son, he's my clone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
This land is mine, this land is free!
I'll do what I want but irresponsibly.
It's evolution, baby!
I'm a thief, I'm a liar.
There's my church, I sing in the choir!
Admire me, admire my home.
Admire my son, admire my clones.
'Cause we know, appetite for a nightly feast.
Those ignorant Indians got nothin' on me!
Nothin', why?
Because... it's evolution, baby!"
