2067:The New Order

[Ryan Naismith]

"Christ..." Miles curses "well, who else is alive? And what gear did the enemy have?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray sighed. "I'm not sure what the speculated equipment was, but I'm fairly certain they weren't supposed to have laser rifles and plasma throwers."

[Ryan Naismith]

"Damned Ryoval bastards..." Miles curses "well, anyone else make it out alive?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray shook his head. "No sir. I was the only one that made it."

[Ryan Naismith]

Miles gives an angered sigh, and purses his lips "ah... Sh*t... Uh... Find a safe place to hide, a full combat drop squad will be on it's way soon... No, cancel that, two."

[Rayleonarde]

Ray chuckled. "I don't think you understand, Commander. I'm back at the facility."

[Ryan Naismith]

"What do you mean, the facility? What damned facility? 'The' isn't very damned specific! Tell me dammit!"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray chuckled. "Their facility. Oh! Hold on." His voice dimmed, as he spoke. "Yep yep, got them all, no survivors. Yeah, I'll meet you for pool later." Footsteps could be heard walking away,  and Ray smiled. "Sorry, Admiral. I'm sitting in the main lobby. Anyway, don't send the strike team, you'll blow my cover." Ray stood, and kept walking."What do you want from them, Commander?"

[Ryan Naismith]

"Wait a minute..." Miles says, beginning to sweat nervously "you... You killed grey squad?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray sighed. "Commander, I did what was necessary to survive. They will be remembered, always. Don't worry Admiral Naismith. I'm not turning coats."

[Ryan Naismith]

"They were good people." He said, his voice quivering "and they had families, most of them..." He bites his lip, nearly drawing blood "j-just do your mission..." He gave an exasperated sigh "I'll decide what to do with you later..."

[Rayleonarde]

Ray shrugged. "As you wish, Admiral." He walked towards the central mainframe of the facility, and began downloading everything on file. Ray laughed, and removed the facilities reactor coolant system control files. The reactor began to over heat, and as it melted down, Ray walked towards the crash-site. He spotted a survivor of Grey Squad, and smirked. "The best of Dendarii, hmm? Shame. Taken down by a single Hollow Child." Ray drew a pistol, and shot the man dead. He drew the man's extraction beacon, and activated it.

[Ryan Naismith]

"What..." The admiral said into his radio "what exactly made you kill grey squad? Why?" He began working his hands, a wordless rage droning in his mouth... No, there was one word clear above the din. Just one. Three letters. It was "why?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray waited for the recovery ship. "Admiral, they were not operating to their fullest extent. Lieutenant Havers would have rather run guerrilla operations, instead of striking the opponent down."

[Ryan Naismith]

"So...you...you killed them? You F*CKING IDIOT! THAT WAS THEIR JOB!" He rips his headset off if his head, and then chucks it across the room, going to pick it up "we're Mercs, we do our job." He says, oddly calm "Nothing more nothing less. If they want more, they'll pay for it."
