interlude

Lucian Hollow speaks with his counterpart in the Underground.
"We have him Lucian. Call off your dogs and we'll make the payment discussed."

"Very well. I'll need 24 hours to contact, secure protocals."
Lucian had no intention of calling off his hunters. But now he knew who had betrayed him, double crossed him. And why. And when his dogs finished, and he was confident they would; He now knew what they'd be doing next.

"As you know Lucian, there's an Alliance Element on board. Their best agent. Perhaps another contract for your dogs to intercept?"

"Of course."
This was just getting too easy, thought Lucian.

end of interlude

-------------
ACT TWO
-------------


Travis, Slade, Sylandra, and Silvia made their way on board. Rose checked the crate for shipping, tipped the deckhands to make sure it would be accessable to the Hunters.

Drinks were poured in the grand ballroom. No sign of Seliator or his entrourage, though rumor mills were already running. "the rich corporate bigwig was sick and taking one last tour of the verse."

Pumping the crew for information seemed to confirm Seliator's location, the VIP quarters of course.

======================================================

It is now a day later.

Silvia and Newton have met on a neutral location. The offer to let them have Seliator for a short time is made once again, then he'll be released to them.

A comm with Lucian Hollow negates that. "He needs to be killed quickly. They have probably already started to extract information. Newton is stalling. And the Alliance wants him dead too, so expect someone else to be making a move."

Stephanie reached the aft end of Corredor A
(see pic). Which way had they retreated?

Or had they retreated.

Their last intel said no one was ported at the Port or Starboard Air Locks or VIP ports. But had that changed. If so, it was probably too late.

Maintenance shafts and halls would be shut down given the emergency situation. Would they retreat to one of the three VIP suites and thus be trapped?

Or gone into the executive area, the Companion and Security Offices; with access to companion quarters; or a simple flanking to corredor B and make a run.

...

Silvia made her own progress.

Sylandra held command over the open area from the A and B corredors to the grand stair case. People ran but she had not spotted any of Seliator's party.

Sylandra took the pause in action to scamper up the grand stairs to put her at the top where she would have more command over the areas below and he corridors. Whined her in case Seliator's party gets past the other hunters. She reached into her bag and pulled out a noise canceling headset and shaded google, sliding them on to protect against the possibility of flash bangs being used to overpower her.

Sylandra spotted Newton, dragging Senator Seliator coming forward from Corridor B. The shooting at the stairs though left them no options. They retreated.

In the smoking corridor of A the others found progress slow. Small spiked mined, like jacks had been tossed on the floor. Someone in the smoke fired an occasional shot or two to further hinder their progress.

Stephanie... Athena... didn't miss a beat as she fired off down the hall. The smoke was against her, against them all, but she was confident enough in the small piece grasped in one hand to follow through. Reaching the end of the hallway, almost hitting the solid wall flat as it came into focus a few inches in front of her, Steph took a wild turn to the right, heading off down the next corridor. If her memory served, the quarters they wanted to focus on were a little ways down here and to the left. Surely that's where TK would be 'retreating' the group back to. Gun cocked and ready before her, Steph slowed to a careful walk as she exited the smoke cloud, ready to fire at a moment's notice. If it moves, it's going down.

Sylandra left the secured position at the top of the stairs to pursue Newton and Seliator down the B corridor, her weapon at the ready. If the opportunity presented itself, she was ready to fire a short burst at the senator. This other man had just better not be in the way.

"I have the senator in the B corridor. Going in after 'em. " she appraised the others over their comms.

Athena saw Seliator dodge into VIP room 12. Newton was with him. Sivlia just behind Athena in their pursuit.

As they continued it was T.K. that seemed to be laying down covering fire and those nasty little mini-mines. As they continued the room was empty, they continued with Athena in the lead.

In hall B, Sylandra was suddenly pinned down from a cross fire from V room 13 and the corredor. Two shooters at each location. From the chatter, she had a chance to cut through room 13. She'd have to make these shots count.

Athena continued on. From a secret panel in room 12 Newton dropped down behind Silvia, a hand gripped the side of her neck like iron. Her body froze, Newton fist hit a very difficult to hit bundle of nerves in her back and Silvia was inert. "Not this time little flower."

His embrace as he lowered her to the floor was more than tender. The old master lingered, "Next time though, I'll pluck your petals and leave you for the needles to be applied."

And with that he was gone in the other direction.

Heading port Athena now had a clear shot at Seliator. He was about to enter a pod or ship at one of the air locks.

Sylandra did a tuck and roll into the corner between floor and the left hand wall as bullets zipped around her and spanged off the surfaces around her. She felt the sting of one tearing through her calf as she curled into the tightest of conditions. At least she would be an impossible target for those guns firing from the room as the far corner blocked them. She only had to contend with the two shooters at the right hand corner.

She brought Bruce up, scope at the ready, and sent a short burst down range toward the aforementioned corner, and then held her sights on the edge of the wall. Sure enough, one gunman rounded the corner to send a response back to her burst, and was rewarded by a singe 5.56mm to the eye socket. She eased her gun down slightly, waiting for a second chance. The man's body rolled out and down, splatting onto the floor in front of his partner. An assault rifle peeked around the corner and a hail of lead rained over her head, peppering the wall inches behind her. She returned fire, feeling Bruce climbing in response to the hot lead leaving its chamber on its way to softening up the protection of the corner.

She frog crawled forward another meter, hoping to get a better angle on the lone gunman, just as more fire came from the room, scoring hits along the far wall, out of her way and no danger to her. Still, it meant there would be additional target to deal with.

Then the cross fire paused and she saw Seliator cross the open "T" from left to right. She held down Bruce's trigger, sending a full burst into his legs, tripping him up and sending him sprawling past the single gunman to her right. She came up in a fluid half crouching run, following up with a short burst at the corner, and hoping that the two men in the room to her left were still holding fire for their master.

There were a couple of explosion behind her, stun grenades and flash bangs. Sylandra ran or mostly stumbled forward.

Seliator was there before her, bleeding out bad from a shot up artery in his leg. He looked up at her, in pain, grimacing. Saw it was over. His face went blank, his eyes cleared.

"Just finish it." he said with a whisper that accepted his fate. A destiny he'd set in motion long ago.

There was a blast of small pistol auto-fire just beside Sylandra. from her peripherals she could see it was Rose Renwick, gas mask and light armor. She covered Sylandra's back, a hand reached out to grip her shoulder; waiting for the final moment and then drag her back to Witchbreath.

Sylandra jerked slightly at Rose's touch, but then turned back to the man on the floor. She flipped Bruce to single shot and raised him to her eye, putting the red dot on his forehead before tapping the trigger. His head jerked back as blood and brain splattered the floor behind him.

With a sigh, she lowered her gun and turned back to follow Rose back to the Witch.

"It's done. No thanks to the 'Hunters'" She smirked as they slid through the airlock into the ship.

((( OOC. OK, so wrapping up since we lost a lot of Players..... )))

Sylandra coughed and gagged her way to the next air lock.

Slade waited at the door with an unconscious Silvia. Slade had laid down plenty of cover fire to give Sylandra her shot, and get Rose in to pull her out.

They tumbled into the Witchbreath's air lock as a few more bullets had to be fired to cover their retreat.

Rose hurried to the cockpit. In less than a minute Witchbreath pulled away from the luxury liner. Several escape pods and other ships were doing the same. Comms shouted for help, other waves announced help was on the way.

===================================================

Athena slipped away into the ship somewhere, having just missed out killing Seliator herself. Sylandra had just beat her to the final shot.

Sylandra made her way to the seat closest to the small medkit secured into one bulkhead. She pulled her headset off and dropped it and the shades back into her bag, where she had let it fall next to her. She pulled the kit down, opened it and took out a sealer spray. Ripping loose the leg of her pants, she checked the bullet wound before sealing the entry and exit wounds with the antiseptic spray.

"Through 'n' through. Shouldn't hang me up much."

As Rose pulled the Witch away from the liner, she watched out the side port, the dim lights of life boats and other craft darting about as they made their escape. Her eyes drifted close as the adrenaline rush died off.

Rose Renwick sent out several comms typical of a ship escaping a disaster; primarily that they were full up and could take no more survivors and were enroute to nearby Greenleaf.

The ship took to its auto route and Rose joined the others in Silvia's room, which double as the med room.

Rose set out three small brief cases. One next to Silvia.
Inside each was cash, payment in full, including other alternate payments that may have been requested: gems, rare coins, etc.

"There's another case like that one." Rose looked over at Slade and Sylandra. "Newton got some information from Seliator, he's taking it to a rebellion leader on Greenleaf. Mister Hollow will send us the details if we are so inclinded.

Rose's poker face suggested she didn't seem to interested. Her words contradicted, "It would be more than I'd ever need. More than my family would ever need."

Whatever the Hunters decided Rose Renwick guided Witchbreath to Greenleaf. There was a common black market trading post she knew of. Somewhere they could all go their separate ways, or not.

'du Sabre's Trading Post'
