"... well," Soren remarked, watching the carnage. "Now I remember why I cook my food. That's a bit more visceral than I would prefer."

"I'm aware, but it might take some time to open that up as an option," Eva muttered the reply to Mandrake's proposal, before turning her attention back to Frederich. The Ghost set her empty teacup down and clapped her hands. "Excellent! Just give us a list of everything you need us to get back."
Harvard watched the Viking until it was out of sight, before turning and making his way back to the perimeter of the base. The marines and workers gathered about as a result of the commotion with the newcomers were still making a clotting crowd, so the officer had to forcefully get everyone back to work before he could continue on.
Nicostraez looked at the basilisk, and the fact that Spike was simply tearing into the creature's guts, and shuddered. In order to keep the contents of his small stomach from ending up on the ground, he looked around at the scenery again... and noticed something distressing.
"Cori?" Nico called out into the hectic muddle of men and machines. "Cori!"
He swallowed tightly, "Oh fel," the boy muttered. It was enough that their cousin was missing, but an idiotic, mechanic loving fool was now in the heart of deadly machinery.
Nora narrowed her eyes, "Oi! What is going on out there?" she cried, making her way out of the medbay and past the hallway towards the ramp that led up to the opening in the ship. The medic pulled the handgun from the holster at her hip and held out up as she rounded the corner and pointed the firearm at the source of the noise.
"
Consigue tu trasero de mi sangrienta medbay!
" she shouted, murder in her eyes as she looked at the raptor eating the basilisk corpse, and the random group of strangers and a Ghost she wasn't particularly fond of, on her doorstep.

Abygail carved her way into the midst of the undead as they lumbered towards the wreck at the end of the scar, and it took them (or whatever power was puppeteer them forward) time to realize their greatest threat had abruptly changed. Blessed strength and holy fire at her aid, the paladin was a very nearly unstoppable force keeping any more undead from moving towards the

"Cori?" Celene asked. "Ugh, where did he run off to?" She complained, suddenly turning and jumping at the shouting woman. "Woah!" She raised her arms at the gun.
Des blinked, ducking behind the cart once again and staring out at the newcomer in shock.
Spike continued devouring the dead lizard, seemingly oblivious to a gun pointing at him.

"What in the hell?" One of the marines wondered, holding his fire at the sight of something destroying the undead.
The other stopped as well, having no idea what to make of the event as undead stopped short of them and actually turned around to lung for the paladin behind them.

Cori was now walking around a tank still oblivious to the people and lack of cousins.. "It's smaller then the steam tanks." He said. "And why does the cannon split like that?" He asked aloud.

"No!" Nora snapped back, waving her gun at Soren, before driving the weapon back into its holster and marched down the ramp, driving a finger in the Ghost's chest and she spoke. "And you better not be wasting by time Baldurson, or I've got a knife with your name on it," the medic eyed him sourly for a moment, before dragging her gaze to the cart.
Nico gulped, looking between Nora and over his shoulder in an attempt to spot Cori amongst the crowds. He wanted to slip away to find his cousin before the other boy did something stupid, but nobody here seemed very stable in the head. He didn't want anyone thinking he was running.

Abygail blazed, and for the next length of time, nearly a half-hour of raging battle, she bared bloodied wounds and bruises and drove the undead back up the scar. The ground at her feet pulsed with consecrated power and the halo of Light around her thrummed in tandem. All the radiance faded, and the paladin slumped to her knees in exhaustion.
Rygos scrambled from his position of dumbstruck awe to reach his aunt before the undead came back.

Triberk slowly but surely made his way through the crowd, finding Harvard eventually. "Sir." He nodded reluctantly.
"Um... hello..." Celene waved. "Sorry about our raptor... he's not big on table manners."
Praegosa
Plaguewood
"Come on." Pray said, looking over at Tia and beginning to carefully roll herself down the hill.
The roar of engines replaced the sounds of undeath, a pair of Helions racing down the scar and skidding to a stop near the barricade; letting off a Marauder and group of marines that had hitched a ride aboard them.

"I would volunteer to cut myself and then imbibe that concoction," Greg spoke as he stood up, "But I would much rather it was done on some poor rodent first. So, a gathering we go, then?
I'll have to stop at the cantina and then the medbay for a moment, but after that I'm free as an eagle. A free eagle, not a zoo eagle."
Alistair rose from his corner near Madison and made his way towards the exit. His eyes two feverishly burning embers, he asked, "Shall I remove the intruders, Nora?"
Of course, the fire-loving Raider was still adamantly ignoring her insistence that he was in fact an intruder as well.

"I repeat. Priority one, a female goatoid. Priority two, a test subject. Three, anything funny you can find. Like any native technology or psionics or whatever. Much obliged for something less messy than a head. Of course, if the stuff works I'm going to need more heads - preferably with bodies still attached. Shopping list ends," Frederich finished.

"Cool it, smoky," Soren said, frowning at the former-Firebat. "We both know I could kick your butt so hard that Nora would have to find you a prosthetic." Turning back to Nora, he said, "well, I have no idea if they'll actually work or not. But Aiden told me to chaperon, so I chaperoned."

Eva made a mental note of the checklist before nodding her head, "We'll get you all that as soon as possible," the Ghost replied, tipping her head to Frederich before making her way to the exit of the laboratory. She grabbed her rifle and shouldered it, checking briefly to make sure Gregory was paying attention or following before she headed out.
Nora narrowed her eyes at Alistair, and then quickly turned that look on Soren, "I will get him a prosthetic, then beat him over the head with it. After beating
you
over the head with it," she wagged her finger at the Ghost before leaning over to look at the chest in the wagon.
"So what's all in here and how's it going to help the dying people?" she asked snappily.

Tia scrambled after her sister's wheelchair, in time for Ryu to help Abygail to her feet. The paladin turned at the sound of the Hellions, and proceeded to place herself, even bruised and bloodied as she was, between the kids and the approaching vehicles and their occupants.

"I presumed too much where I knew too little," Alistair hissed. "I acknowledge my mistake and will rectify it. Though I did assume Special Operations to be above petty insults, as well," he added acidly. Addled as his mind was by the lack of sleep and dark depression over Madison's condition, the Raider made a mental note to renew his Psi-screen project, for now postponed indefinitely. Even though he only had exactly one fully functioning specimen to work on - courtesy of a certain Spectre, who lent it to Mercer after his indoctrination - Alistair was confident he would eventually integrate a prototype into his power armor.
"We'll have to find a way to gather the blueskins' blood somehow. Since we still haven't picked up any traces of vespene on this planet, might as well sterilize a gas canister," Gregory commented, waving his goodbye at Fred and walking out of the laboratory. He took the lead, heading to the cantina.

Celene was about to answer when she suddenly heard Des pop the chest open.
"Potions!" He stated excitedly, beginnging to dig through the glass bottles stored within burlap sacks. "Wait... why does mom have swiftness potions in her emergency supplies?"
"She and uncle Kai apparently once saved Gilneas with them... or something like that." Celene shrugged. "But doesn't matter, get those health ones out of there!"
The Albino hefted the bag of health potions out of the chest, forgoing his sister's outstretched arm and bringing them up to Nora himself with a meek grin.
The Blue blinked, but shrugged.

One of the marines brought a gauss rifle up, pointing it forward as the group made their way through the battlefield and towards the group.
The heavily armored arm of the marauder suddenly shoved it back down. "Stand down, !@#$%^&." They stated. "No need to make enemies if we can help it."

Eva followed after him, "I can see if I can do some of this," she tapped her forehead a handful of times, "when we find the natives. Might have some helpful insights."
She looked around at the budding base while they walked, noticing some commotion near the entrance to the medbay. Probably someone making a fuss about minor injuries.
Harvard turned around and saw William, opening his mouth for a few moments without saying anything as he scanned the engineer. Eventually, words found him, "Triberk!" the officer exclaimed. "We thought you were dead!"
He seemed partly relieved at William's appearance. The other part was nervousness he was stuffing under formality.
Nora eyed Desidaku suspiciously before taking the bag. She opened the draw strings and removed one of the vials filled with red liquid, tapping a chewed down fingernail against the glass, "Now what in the name of space is this supposed to do?" she wondered aloud, staring at the potion with reluctant curiosity.
Nicostraez made a passing glance at Nora while he kept up the search for any sign of Cori from where he stood. He didn't think the concept of potions was that hard to grasp. Though another look around at the machines surrounding him, he considered that maybe they had things more impressive to use.

Abby used her greatsword to support herself as she looked at the marauder, who by all respects was probably the leader of the small party, "The ship. Yours?" she asked, breathlessly.

Des' grin vanished completely, his face becoming nervous. "Well, it's a potion. You drink it, and the mixture does the rest." He explained. "In the case of health potions, they're made from peaceblooms usually, and can heal injuries; small ones, mostly, but can help with bigger ones."
He tapped his now empty hands together. "They might not be much, but our mom has a shop full of them, and she knows how to make stronger ones too."
Celene nudged Nico. "Go find him before he gets caught poking things he shouldn't." She stated. "We don't have guns pointing at us anymore, at least."
"If it makes you feel any better. I did too." William stated.
COLA, having gathered a number of supplies to help in repairs around the ship, made his way to Triberk's side, sitting down.

Gauntleted arms reached up, unlocking the helmet of the marauder suit and pulling it off to reveal dark brown skin, black hair, and dark eyes beneath. The woman eyed Abby, making her way over and offering the Paladin a hand. "Not personally. Belongs to the grand Dominion, and Emperor Mengsk." She replied. "But let's save the chat until after we get you folks inside, now that you've done... whatever you just did..."
Pray peaked out around Abby, staring at the armored people curiously.

Cori threw a mixture of dumb luck and genius had found himself inside one of the engineer bay's and was studying a empty marauder suit a pad and pencil in his hands as he sketched the suit setting the writing utensils down long enough to take a measurement of poke a piece of the suit before going back to writing.

"This isn't going to work." Richard said.
"What should we do then?" Loki asked as he sat on one of the arms of the thor inorder to hear Richard.
"I guess we disassemble it and take it back piece by piece." He suggested.
"That will take forever." Loki sighed. "You can't get it moving?" He asked.
Richard shook his head. "I don't say it often but I'm stumped on this one."

Yerk scrambled about the marine agilely. Many times more lithe than the lumbering giant, he stabbed his forelimbs into the visor, then dipped under the arms that came up, clinging to the suit like some sort of statue. Scurrying underneath it climbed in front of the soldier and stabbed again, then lunged into the shattered visor and bit down for the kill.

Gregory followed her gaze, raising his eyebrow in confusion.
"Wait, are those... children there?" he grunted.
"Peacebloom, huh. How would that work, I wonder," Alistair muttered under his nose, rambling rather than addressing someone in particular. "Boosting cell replication rate, maybe? Wouldn't that cause accelerated aging..."

"Right," Nico replied, with a sigh. "He's probably already poking things he shouldn't, so I might as well stop him before one of those things blows up."
The boy pushed his glasses up his nose and marched off into the crowds away from the medbay, trying to find a concentration of derelict machines to hopefully find his cousin haunting.
Nora tapped her foot as she watched Des during his explanation, making a sharp nod at the end, "This will help clear room and get people on their feet, then, if they work like you say," she muttered. The medic went rigid after that, shoving the vial in her hand back in the sack and proceeded to make her way back up the ramp, waving behind her. "Come up with you want but I'm not responsible for trauma or nightmares or whatever."
Eva paused to examine the scene more closely, then spotted a small, seemingly not a Raider, figure making his way away from the crowd near the medbay.
"I think so," the Ghost replied with an arched brow of confusion.
Harvard leaned over briefly to rub the top of COLA's metal head, between the robot's ears, before nodding towards William, "Well then it's good to see you up and running," he grimaced briefly, as if considering the majority of people who were not. "Anything you need?"

"Right," Abygail muttered. "They'll keep their distance for now, but they'll be make. Most likely with more."
The paladin looked back at the three kids, "Come on you guys, time to chip in some more," she managed a slight smile, before nodding towards the marauder and shifting her weight to better move.
