*** UNSC Research Base ***
As it happened, the UNSC guard in the room had a cybernetic eye, and caught the shimmer. He flipped off the safety and demanded, "Hands. Off. The keyboard. I will not tell you again!"
*** Sangheili RCS Armored Cruiser
Undying Will, approaching Gorbis Mongdrigo ***
"Can you point us to your friends outside the city?" Huki asked.
*** Star Destroyer
Reckoning, Coruscant Orbit ***
Draco lead his team down to the hangar, where they would board separate shuttles that would ferry them to the target locations. "We'll be using an encrypted channel for this op; stay in contact, alert me to anything you spot. Overwatch, you'll be our eye in the sky. I'm sending an image of who we're looking for." Shortly after this, an image of
Lana Beniko would appear on whatever the marine was using for a datapad.
*** UACS
Iron Regent, New Cerinia Orbit ***
"Come on - let's not keep our friend waiting. Sith or not, I want to find out what Torrentus wants with us that they had to send a courier to deliver a meeting request," Markus stated officiously, fixing his uniform as he walked for the bridge.
*** Indari Manor, Dragon'taan ***
Drake downed a bite of his meal. "You were talking about being able to keep your red fox fo--" he was cut off abruptly by the sound of Jason wailing. "The wild one calls," he chuckled, getting up to tend to his son.
*** Unspecified Location on Outskirts of Draco City, Dragon'taan ***
The merc Alex wasn't facing would suddenly grab her from behind, but would just as suddenly and drop to the floor as something impacted the back of his head. The dragon would now be looming over Alex, his assault rifle in his hands, his stance suggesting he had hit the merc over the head with the stock of his weapon. In a blur, he pointed the weapon at the other merc, now crying in pain holding his groin.

*** Dragon'taan Bank ***
"Oh, you think--no, no, it's not an addiction, it was a one-time thing she was talked into. I already had words with her about that. She just needs a fresh start, the debt paid off, so she can move here," the teller explained.
*** Outer Space near New Romulus ***
The transmission cut out, and Anna's ship would receive sets of coordinates before the cruiser turned and headed out-system. Attached to the coordinates was a short message: "Meet the attack force at these coordinates, then head to the base here. Destroy what you deem necessary, but leave the command post more or less undamaged until we get what we're after and get clear. When we are, we'll send a signal and you can blast the command post to bits."

"The hell...?" the marine mumbled on Michen going Feral. "Uh... sir?" she asked, clearly confused.
*** Starship Chimera, Geidi IV Orbit ***
Kyle decided to be playful and gently tickle Gypsie with a mischievous smile.
*** Geidi IV, UT Battle Arena ***
Keesha broke free of Rochell's grasp, then projected a Force Bubble around her to shield her from what she would do. The ground shook. The floor cracked. Keesha roared as a dragon as she began to glow with a blood-red aura that seemed to dance like flames around her body. In an instant, she then appeared just as massive as Malachai was, and held her lightsabers - enlarged as well - at the ready, and her mind began forming a kinetic ball before her that seemed to pulsate and grow as it gathered energy.
*** Unburnt plains, Dragon realm ***
Anna cursed in her native tongue as she ran after Raz.
*** Planet Nirn, Akavir, Crash Site ***
(We gonna get moving with heading for the expedition base?)
