open Titan Squad - ME3 Crossover Advanced RP

[Dattebayo 2,850]

"Ma'am," Righty whispered to Gaze, who didn't take her eyes off the immediate area the scout was invetigating.

"What do you think the Crystal Empire is doing here? Wasn't this an Alliance colony?"

 

The only immediate thought was that the Crystal Empire stormed in, messed up the communication towers, and took all of the colonists hostage, most likely to hold them for some sort of ransom or negotiation for future conflicts.

 

She dismissed that train of thought almost immediately after finishing it up.

'No, no...that doesn't make sense...we're ponies too, they wouldn't do something as awful to their own species...'

 

"Ma'am," Righty whispered.

"Ma'am," Righty whispered to Gaze, who didn't take her eyes off the immediate area the scout was invetigating. "What do you think the Crystal Empire is doing here? Wasn't this an Alliance colony?"

Gaze scowled at Righty, then let her expression slide. "I have no idea why they would be here, I would have never expected to find a corpse of all things either. Move forward, lets check this tower." She motioned for the squad to get up and move forward with her hoof. It was less than 50m from their current position to the front entrance from the jungle floor.

The tower was tall, the sunlight was obscured from the front door because of the landing platform that was anchored on the side above the front of the tower. The sides were adorned with a large blue Alliance logo, and a 4 character designation. What was most curious of all things was that there was carbon scarring on the front of the door right where the two plates met in the middle.

"There's evidence of combat here squad. Tread lightly." She said as she approached the door. She held her ear up to the steel plates then took a step back, looking over the wall. "Fortunately for whoever broke into here, this facility did not include immediate area surveillance cameras. They used thermite charges to break open the door. At that point the alarms would have tripped. But everything is quiet. Repsol, return to me. We're going in the front door. Gladius you're on point. In on the breach."

After she finished giving her orders, Gaze took a small round device from her armour, and put it on the front doors. She pressed the big red button, and it started blinking steadily for a couple seconds. After a short delay, the light went solid and the device combusted, launching both sides of the doors wide open.

((Upon Gladius's entry, the squad will see the entire room . The sliding door that leads into the next hallway is left open, but other than that the room appears mostly empty and normal. That is, save for the bodies of 3 Alliance marines lying on the floor with blood smeared on the walls behind where they must have been standing. Their weapons are drawn. The only bullet holes are ones that are directly behind where the soldiers would have been standing, perfect shots with no misses.))
 

[repsol rave 2,963]

As Repsol recieved his orders through his helmet radio, he made his way back to the font door. He deactivated his cloaking device on the way back, renderin ghim completely visible again. He also got his shotgun frpm his back and at the ready. He started to gallop towards the rest of his squad.

Right as he came around the corner, he was met with an explosion and the creaking of metal. The doors flung open and the squad moved inside. Repsol was just quick enough to join in to the breaching formation as the back guy, covering therest of the squad's backs.

 

The inside of the room startled Repsol. The bodies clad in alliance armor lay all in a line, without traces of any struggle or battle. It must have been a perfect breach. Their blood still caked on the wall behind them. Letting his thoughts roam around in his head, he eventually trotted up to the marines, inspecting the bodies, then turned back to the squad.

"This doesn't make any sense. Why would there be both Alliance and Crystal Empire corpses out here? I thought the Empire didn't target the same species?"

The scout was right. This didn't seem like the Crystal Empire's MO at all.

Perhaps they've gone rouge?

 

Righty moved up to one of the dead bodies and scanned them.

"They're dead." No suprise there.

"Perfect breach, completely taken by suprise. These poor ponies never stood a chance."

 

The drone's whirring and beeps echoed throught the eeirly empty halls.

@@xzeno,

 

As the doors flew open, Gladius charged into the room, shotgun at the ready. Once he concluded there were no immediate threats present, he lowered his gun and surveyed the room more carefully. The first thing that the noticed was, of course, the bodies. Three Alliance marines, dead, with their weapons drawn. "Are you guys seeing what I'm seeing? Three shots, three kills. Whoever did this must be pretty good. And judging by all the blood, it's safe to assume they were using a high caliber weapon. Chrystal Empire would fit the bill, but I see no reason why they would want to do this to their own kind. Gaze, you're the one in charge here. What do you think about all this?"

 

---

 

Lost Knowledge followed the others into the room, looking around and trying to make sense of what he saw. If the soldiers had their weapons drawn, that meant they weren't taken by surprise, but they were still apparently killed before any of them could get off a single shot. Who would be able to kill three Alliance marines that quickly?

[repsol rave 2,963]

As Repsol stepped away from the corpses, he felt a distinct feeling rise in his guts. He rose his shotgun and lkooked down the sights as he made for the empty hallway. The sliding door seemed malfunctional, as it didn't close anymore. tough he didn't rule out the possibility of a trap. He took a small box that lay littered across the floor and coutiously slid it through the door. As the door didn't come smashing into the box, he redeemed it save to pass through. Letting out a small nervous sigh, he rose his shotgun again and went through the door into the eery hallway.

 

As he ventured deeper into the station, the hallway became more and more dark. It added to his nervousness, so he snipped on his flashlight. He whispers to himself as he turns another corner. i have a baaad feeling about this... As he moves foreward his flashlight illuminates another corpse. Repsol swallowed opnce before calling it in through his radio. "Squad, i got another body here. Looks like it's another one from the alliance."

[Guest]

Gaze moves over to inspect the bodies of the marines that are slouched on the floor. She runs her hoof over the armour of one, smearing the blood that dripped from the wound in the marine's head. She stands up, letting out a deep breath.
 

 

 

"Squad, i got another body here. Looks like it's another one from the alliance."

"Roger that." Gaze said as she stepped through the open door and into the hallway connected to the lobby. The hall was short, only a few metres in length. Glass and stainless steel flanked her on either side as she walked calmly, with her weapon raised towards the door at the other end. "This elevator will bring us up to the command centre of the tower." She finished her sentence with grumbling; something about there being too many fucking elevators.

As she met with the elevator door, she presses the call button.

"Prepare yourselves." She quickly says, raising her weapon and taking a stance ready for contacts to appear in the elevator. The rest of the squad mirror's her actions, with their weapons ready.

An eerie Ding echoes through the hallway as the door begins to open. Inside, several ponies wearing alliance uniforms and a pair of marines were lying on the floor of the elevator, criss crossed over each other. Blood starts flowing from the elevator out onto the floor of the hallway. The walls of the elevator was covered in blood. What is even more disturbing is that it is smeared as if the ponies were scratching at the walls as they died trying to escape.

"I hope none of you are queasy, because we're taking this ride up. Drag their bodies out. I'm pretty sure they are all dead, but I want you to check just in case, Lost." Gaze ordered through her headset as she began to do her part cleaning up.

(( Lost: You are able to determine that all of the ponies are dead. Through a quick surface analysis you are able to determine that there are no external wounds. You do not have the equipment to do a complex internal autopsy. If you decide to examine the bodies closer, you will find dried blood on the inside of their noses, their eyes, and ears. These are signs of cranial hemorrhaging (aka something made their head start bleeding from the inside). ))

((also just so you guys know I am in fact rolling for these kinds of things. If you want me to say what I rolled for each action just tell me.))

"This is giving me some seriously disturbing flashbacks" Gaze whispers quietly to herself.

((It might be nice to see what the rolls are. If nothing else, I'd like to have a frame of reference for how well I'm doing at something. But that's just me. I don't really care too much either way.))

 

Lost looked over the bodies and gave a solemn shake of his head. "They're all dead. And I'm pretty sure it wasn't any sort of conventional weapon that killed them. It could be biotics, maybe? Definitely not like the other bodies. Those ones were just shot, but this is... different. I suppose a blunt instrument could result in this type of internal bleeding, but who the hell uses a blunt instrument if they have guns at their disposal? If I had to guess, I'd say biotics killed them. Either that, or it's something I've never seen before. And there aren't many things I haven't seen. But regardless, they're definitely all dead." He finished moving the bodies out of the elevator and tried to clean things up as best he could before stepping in. "Alright, I guess I'm ready to go as soon as everybody else is. The elevator is clean enough, and we have more important things to take care of anyway."

[Dattebayo 2,850]

'Crap..' Righty thought as she stepped inside the now-less-bloody elevator.

She was, in fact, the type of mare who gets queasy.

 

Lost did the best he could cleaning up, but just imagining that ponies died in here, trying to claw their way out... Why was HER squad taking the elevator...?

 

Righty looked at her weapons and her ammo. Topped off, hasven't fired yet...

But it wouldn't hurt to have a little something extra, just in case.

She looked at the dead soldiers outside of the elevator.

'They weren't going to need their weapons...' She reasoned.

 

"Wait up, I'm gonna take a look at their equipment..." she whispered, much to her squad's mild disgust.

"Cover me."

 

She meekly walked up to the corpses and patted them down, looking for salvageable materials, trying to not be bothered by the looks she was getting. Trying not to be bothered at the fact that these ponies died horribly and she was taking their valuables.

 

((@@xzeno I roll for loot))

I mean, c'mon, do we REALLY need all the 800 characters for responses?

I don't think so.

[repsol rave 2,963]

((yeah i vote for the rolls too. seeing what we're up against makes it easier to say how Repsol is supposed to react to the situation.))

 

Repsol swallowed once as he layed his eyes on the massive carnage that lay inside the elevator. He gulped once before grabbing the hoof of one of the marines. Trying to be as respectfull as he could, e dragged the body out of the tiny elevator and up the small hallway. He fixed his gaze up the wall while doing so, as to not make eye contact with the dead body now resting against the floor.

As he trotted back to the elevator he saw that his squad had did their respective parts, and the elevator was now void of any dead ponies.

To Repsol's disgust, Righty moved over to go and loot the dead ponies. Repsol scrunched his muzzle under his helmet as he witnessed the quite unethical display play out in front of him.  He strepped aside as Righty made her way to the bodies. 

Touhg he thought of the actions as pretty much disturbing, he couldn'help but feel like somehow it made a little sense. Those ponies wheren't going to use it anymore anyway, right?

 

He stepped into the elevator next to Lost, grabbing his shotgun from his back as he prepared himself for the ride up.

((@xzeno I roll for loot))

 

((Roll: 2 on a D20

 

You find nothing but standard Alliance gear. Switching your rifle wouldn't really be a downgrade, but the blood stains on the components might be a little bit jarring.))

 

Yuck.

 

"Alright. Pile in, we're taking a trip." Gaze waited until all the ponies in the squad entered into the cage. A couple seconds later, the doors slid shut, and the elevator started... well elevating towards the top of the tower. "When we're up there, Gladius and Repsol, you're first out. Gladius left, Repsol right, Lost left, Righty... right. Pun intended. Weapons hold until I give the order, copy all?" Gaze quickly said as the ominous chyme of the floors passing by made the squad more and more anxious. Gaze took the squads silence and half witted nods as affirmation, and set up her rifle facing towards the door standing ready to charge forward.

 

The final chyme rang through the elevator as the door started opening. No more than 10 metres away the glistening armour of a group of Crystal Empire soldiers instantly got Gaze's blood pumping. Adrenaline was administered as Gaze's trained instincts took over, sending her galloping towards the ponies standing there.

 

The crystal empire soldiers heard the elevator door open, and the shuffling of the squad's hooves. They turned their attention to the squad coming through the doors. They all drew their weapons, pulling out an assortment of heavy rifles and sidearms, pointing them all at the squad moving in. Gaze was the first to open her mouth.

 

"Weapons on the ground, now!" She bellowed, keeping her rifle's muzzle pointed square on one of the soldier's heads. "I'm not warning again. You have 2 seconds."

 

"I suggest you lower your weapons. The Crystal Empire has no intention on raising the body count here." One of the Crystal ponies said, taking a step forward with a heavy pistol in her hoof.

 

Gaze silently tagged every pony with the exception of the one who spoke with a large red diamond. She waited the two seconds she promised to the Crystal ponies, then gave the order.

 

"Weapons green."

 

((There are 4 Crystal ponies that are tagged as hostile in the room. 3 have rifles, and 1 has an SMG. The positions of the ponies looks something like this:

 

Riflepony                                    Riflepony               Riflepony

                 SMGPony      Squad Leader

                     

 

 

 

Gladius                         Gaze                                  Repsol

         Lost                                              Righty

 

Pick your target, call out your shots. Hits are being rolled on a D10. Here's how combat is going to work because we have an 800 character limit:

 

Make a post, at the top it says **COMBAT**

 

Post your target, and how you are engaging the target.  Use filler to get over 800 if you aren't able to. Start each combat step with a number.

 

Here's my target and shots as an example:

**COMBAT**

1. Gaze fires 2 quick bullets towards the riflepony who is standing behind the enemy squad leader (aim for head) and a single shot at the squad leader (aim for dominant shoulder.

 

 

Here is where I will post your rolls:

 

Gaze:

Shot 1: 7

Shot 2: 3

Gaze takes shots to her shields from the squad leader, but they do not penetrate.

Shot 3: 5

 

Righty:

1. Natural 10 : The enemy soldiers are flustered and do not return fire immediately

2. 7: The neurolaser disables the pony and causes critical wounds.

 

Repsol:

Shot 1: 1 (LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!)

Shot 2: 2 (LOLOLOLOLOL x2)

Shot 3: I don't need to roll you for cover.

 

RNGeezus hates you Repsol.

 

Gladius: ((I DIDN'T MARK THE SQUAD LEADER AS HOSTILE AHDOSAIDHOASIDAOSMDAIOSHD))

1. 6 The biotic charge lands perfectly, however your shotgun round misses the head and the pellets embed themselves into the side of the enemy squad leader. The squad leader is now incapacitated.

2. No rolls for cover. ((hehe... pun))

 

Lost:

1. Successful biotic barrier activation.

2. Natural 10 All the shots land on their target. They break through the shields quickly then penetrate the pony's armour perfectly, sending him to the gound.

Edited April 22, 2014 by xzeno

[Dattebayo 2,850]

**COMABT**

 

1. Righty sprays 3 bursts of her Vindicator over the Crystal Empire soldiers to suppress them and to give her squad a chance to get into cover

 

2.  RIghty takes cover behind a desk and aims her omnitool at the pony with the SMG. That guy could do some damage if left unchecked.

She spawns her drone behind the pony and activates her drone's nuerotaser. It fires at the soldier.

Repsol nodded once as he silently let out an "affirmative." as answer on Gaze's commands. As the doors slid open, he moved to the far right, taking a Crystal Empire pony in the sights of his shotgun, hoof on the trigger.

When Gaze gave the weapons green, he didn't hesistate to take action.

 

^^COMBAT^^

 

1 One shotgun slug shot towards the Crystal pony with the rifle on the far right.

 

2 Right after he feels his shotgun make the shot, he pulls the trigger again for a second shot.

 

3 After he feels the recoil, he jumps to cover.

((Of course the day things finally start to happen has to be one of the rare days when I'm actually busy. Sorry I wasn't able to post sooner, especially since I'm guessing that by now my response won't actually be factored in until monday.))

 

When Gaze called weapons green, Gladius wasted no time charging headfirst into the fray. He didn't know what the Chrystal Empire was doing here, and frankly, he didn't really care, either. The commander had decided they were the enemy, and right now, that was good enough for him.

 

---

 

Lost was always hesitant to resort to violence-a strange quality in a mercenary- but here there didn't seem to be any real choice in the matter. If the rest of the squad was going to fight them, then so was he.

 

**COMBAT**

 

Gladius:

1. Biotic charges directly into the squad leader and quickly fires his eviscerator at him from point blank (aim for head).

2. Dives for nearest cover.

 

Lost:

1. Ducks behind cover and activates biotic barrier.

2. Fires three shots from pistol at leftmost riflepony (aim for torso).

[Dattebayo 2,850]

The drone's short-range neurotaser arked to the SMG wielding pony in a brilliant pink flash.

The soldier screamed and sputtered as his nerves were fried from the intense electrical current and collapsed to the ground, very much alive,but effectively incapacitated.

 

"Atta boy, Cloud!" She yelled amidst the gunfire.

 

She then sprayed her Vindicator at the remaining confused squad.

The screams of their fallen commrade and the bullets whizzing overhead created a scene of utter confusion for the flustered CE soldiers: textbook execution.

Seeing an opportunity amidst the confusion and the terrifying brute force of her squaddie's biotic display, Righty knew that these grunts might be their only source of answers for whatever the heck is going on here.

She popped out of cover, but the soldiers weren't entirely in chaos.

 

*COMBAT*

1. Righty takes a stray bullet from leftmost enemy. Has full shields calibrated for strength over duration.

2. Righty aims for the kneecaps of the leftmost enemy, aiming to maim rather than kill.

((Combat for Righty
2. 8 - The slugs from Righty's rifle hit right on target, shooting out the pony's legs, neutralizing them. ))


ENOUGH COMBAT!!!

The squad of crystal empire ponies is shocked by the sudden spur of violence. Several of them go down before they have the chance to retaliate. The single remaining pony takes shots at Righty, taking down their shields and hitting Righty's armour. Soon after, Gaze takes the remaining soldier down with a quick burst from her rifle into the face of the opposing pony.

As the dust settles, all the enemy ponies are lying on the floor with various amounts of blood biproduct. Gaze steps forward, checking on the squad leader's vitals. "Lost attend to this pony. I don't want them dying. As for you, Gladius; Do you not know how to follow orders? Are you too savvy and macho to listen to what I say. Do you think you're clear to attack anything and everything as long as it's standing in front of you?" Gaze started yelling. She uses her biotics to suspend Gladius in the air. "When I was told that I would be given a team of mercenaries I was under the impression that they would have more common sense than a goddamn fucking shiny green soldier! I've fought with cadets who could do their job better than you. If you step in front of me again I swear I will put bullets into the back of your head and I will not feel a single second of regret, is that perfectly clear?" Gaze says as she puts more pressure on Gladius's body with her biotics, pushing down on his chest. @@Alex Kennedy @@Dattebayo @@repsol rave

[Dattebayo 2,850]

"Ma'am, please! Stop!" Shouted Righty as her CO lifted her squaddie to the air like a filly lifts a rag doll with her magic, still reeling from the slug that went straight through her shields.
She could hear Gladius' labored wheezing through her radio.
"You're hurting him!"

Righty was shocked at the quick and aggressive display of biotics Gaze displayed against her own people.
She almost casually wondered if she would act on her threat and Gladius feel a force that has shown time and time again can shatter a tree trunk, let alone a full grown stallion. Would there be blood? Would the suit contain his crushed organs if the seal remained intact?

Acting on impulse, she raised her weapon at her CO, not even realizing she had done so herself until she let out a stammered yell.
"I-I said put him down!!"

"Huh Gladius? Is it!?" Gaze yelled, ignoring Righty's initial protests, grumbling mentally about being called ma'am all the time. She looked Gladius dead in the eyes, trying to sense his thoughts. "Are you going to fucking talk to me or what?!" She yelled again.

"I-I said put him down!!" She heard Righty call from beside her. Gaze took a moment to look towards her disgruntled teammate and was more than disgusted at the mutiny that was taking place. She looked past Righty and saw that Lost too was aiming her rifle towards her.

"I am not going to tolerate insubordination in my squad Righty. Put down your weapon." She said sternly, continuing to hold up Gladius in place. "If you are not able to follow orders then you are completely expendable to me, do you understand? Expendable. Put your weapon down or you will not see daylight again." She screamed at the top of her voice.

Gladius squirmed around the biotic embrace, staring at Gaze with hateful eyes. His weapon was dropped on the floor below him, and he seemed to be desperately trying to reach it.

@@Dattebayo,

Righty was terrified.
She didn't know what was going on. She didn't even know Gladius that well, but her commadric instinct drove her to protect her squadmates. Her throat was dry and her gun shaky.

But she couldn't show any signs of weakness, especially not now.

"Let's just...all...calm down..." Righty said.

"Are you really doing this Righty? Your aim is off your eyes are skattered, you've got untamed fear running throughout your body. Where'd you come from? What's your history you feckless bile? Were you a snivvling snooper weeving in and out of the streets of whatever backwater cesspit you were born in? Huh? What got you here Righty, because it sure wasn't courage. If you were courageous we'd be out of this room with our answers. If you were something more than a wimpering child who barely moved out of their parent's house I might be able to make something of you. Yet here we are, you being all defensive over this little shit here who barely has two brain cells to bash together. I'd call it love if I were as ignorant as some of those in the room." Gaze gazed to her side towards the large glass window that opened up the room towards the canopy of the forest floor.

"Saulderized polyetheline. Works well to keep the bugs out but will never hold together against a slug. However, I've never tested it with a larger caliber." She said twisting to her side, aiming her rifle at the drone behind her taking a quick burst at it. After she fired the shots she gathers her biotic charge, and lets out a projectile of pure energy, launching Gladius towards the window.

((Rolled 8 The shots hit the drone, disabling it))

[Dattebayo 2,850]

"You MANIAC!!!" Righty screamed in rage and terror.

'Thefoamthefoamthefoam, please work...!' her panicked mind raced, hoping her trump card wasn't disabled by the large caliber blast piercing through her drone.

The drone let out a scrambled tone as it's anti-personnel measures activated upon it's "death".
Thick globs of riot foam erupted out of it's faint glowing hardware, spraying everything nearby .

'Thefoamthefoamthefoam, please work...!' her panicked mind raced, hoping her trump card wasn't disabled by the large caliber balst piercing through her drone.

The drone let out a scrambled tone as it's anti-personnel measures activated upon it's "death".
Thick globs of riot foam erupted out of it's faint glowing hardware, spraying all nearby personnel.

((Roll to nonlethally incapacitate Gaze, encasing her harmlessly but effectively in near-indestructible foam))

((FUKAY


Rolled 9 to incapacitate Gaze
Rolled 2 to save Gladius))

The foamy... stuff that exploded from the disabled drone did not pop out at first, it took a couple of stressful seconds. When it did though, it covered Gaze from hoof to head, almost tying her down to the floor of the observatory. Although Gladius was within range of the strange stuff, it did not latch on to his body. However the force from the biotic push that Gaze used to hurl him into the window was not enough to break it, and instead he smashed into the window, cracking it but not causing it to shatter. He fell face down onto the floor, and ceased moving.

"What the hell? It's not party time goddamnit." Gaze yelled as she turned her attention to the mutinous mare. "Your turn." She said as she stood up on her hind legs and tried to gather up her biotic energy to do another blast. However try as she might, no biotic energy was resulting from her concentration. She pulled back her arms to try and form the sphere but nothing was happening. "What the buck is going on here?" She asked quizingly.

"You were wrong by the way."

Righty said, avoiding the question, Vindicator aimed squarely at center mass.

Her voice was still understandably shaky, but she was considerably calmer and her weapon considerably steadier now that she had the upper hand.

 

"I lived a comfortable life. Not enough to live plush, but we never needed much."

Her eyes shifted to her fallen squaddie. Not moving. No sound of breathing though the radio. Probably dead.

Damn it.

 

"My mother...she went out to the store to buy groceries one day...she never came back.

We found out later that she was...was killed, by biotic rioters.

She just went out to get groceries..."

 

Righty re-affixed her Vindicator.

"It wasn't fair...growing up without a mother. My dad, he hated biotics from that day on...called them a "menace to decent ponies everywhere". Freaks."

 

She quickly looked at Repsol, who was stunned and speechless throughout the whole ordeal, and then at Lost, who was backing her up, and then back at Gaze.

 

"My dad was also a genius...ex-Alliance egghead...he designed a special weapon against biotics, a foam that dampens the outward electric impulses from the brain...rendering biotic powers useless."

 

A menacing scowl appeared on Gaze's face.

 

"I should kill you right now, you heartless monster..." Righty growled.

"But that wouldn't make me any better than you.

We have a job to do...I suggest we stop killing each other and do it."

 

Righty lowered her weapon slightly, enough to let Gaze know she wasn't going to get it between the eyes, but enough to do so if Gaze were to get any bright ideas.
