Quill shuffled along near the head of the group, but by no means at the very lead - not since the snow started laying on thick. Right now she looked mostly unassuming: essentially a pile of fur coats, the armor underneath them clanging as she moved, with a scarf-wrapped scaly snout sticking out from under the hood, a long, sleek scaly tail swishing around in an agitated manner behind her, and a heavy flail slung over one shoulder.

"Quill hopes city has fire going when we get there. Otherwise Quill will start a fire with the first flammable thing on hand," she muttered bitterly under her breath. The kobold, it seemed, did not care for the cold and snow in the slightest.

Her motives for venturing out here were rather uninspiring - she did it simply for the offered pay, rather than any great sense of duty or honor. She was surprisingly strong for her small stature, and it served her well in the mercenary trade, earning her, if not respect and acceptance, then at least a decent living. Of course, times like this, tromping through the horrid white cold stuff, she had to wonder if there might not be an easier way to make gold, or at least a warmer place to do it in.

One encounter and half PK later, you'll change your tune...

My Kobold fighter is ready. Many kneecaps shall be broken.

You have my kobold.

Well, you don't yet, because I haven't sent you the CB file, but damnit, the line doesn't work otherwise...

Such is the fate of most PBFs here, I guess. It's a success if they take off at all.

Shame too, was looking to try Shadowrun out.

Hey, been kind of away from the forums, missed this thread popping up... got any room left?

Seren kept his rifle at the ready, though at least he didn't point it at the newcomer after the first few moments.

"Yeah, don't thank me yet," he replied with a shake of his head. "I'm here to retrieve one Asari of note, and to ensure the gang responsible for her abduction doesn't cause any more trouble. Now, I'm fully prepared to do this on my own, but... I can't exactly leave loose ends unattended. Specifically, I can't leave your sister, and more importantly you to just sit here and cause Spirits know what trouble. So, my offer... help me recover the Asari and neutralize the gang, and in return I'll help you get off the planet. How's that sound?"

Seren didn't spend much time outside. The position was too exposed for his liking, he had a good view, but also could likely be seen without too much trouble. As soon as he saw the lone figure heading towards the tower, he ducked back inside.

"Best get suited up. There's someone on the way here, to be sure, I expect we'll be on the move soon," he told the doctor.

"Well, that's convenient," the Turian commented, leaning against the door frame. "I'll want to know just what he meant by "situation". And this way you can explain the predicament to him and get him to cooperate without anyone else listening in. Anyway, wait here and don't play the hero, and you'll get out alive," he added, briefly checking over his rifle.

Then, to hopefully avoid any nasty surprises like more than one person coming to the "rescue", he went up to the top of the comms building to watch for anyone approaching.

"Better answer that. I'd suggest you put on a "business as usual" approach, though. No telling who's listening in on the other side, hm?" the Turian suggested, stepping over the remains of the Batarian to investigate the rest of the comms tower for systems of tactical importance for the mission - or for guns left unattended, either one worked. He did make a point of taking the Batarian's gun with him, though. Best not to leave the human any chances to play hero.

"I can't very well leave either of you behind unattended," Seren began, then paused to consider the situation. The element of surprise would only last so long, and the gang still had a marked advantage in numbers. Maybe there'd be some use out of these humans...

"You convince your brother to assist me in retrieving the Asari, though, and I'll help the two of you get off planet," he added, moving around the room so as to not be immediately visible from the airlock.

Seren stood up slowly with a shake of his head. "Well, that's one down without raising alarm," he muttered to himself, ticking off one Batarian off the gang's roster.

"Now, this is a fairly important matter, so try to concentrate, hmm?" the Turian said, turning to the human woman. "What was wrong with the Asari that they needed to bring you in, and is the condition still present?" His own medical expertise was rather limited, after all, so if the hostage needed further medical care, it'd be useful to have a more competent medic around. At least for the time being. He could worry about letting her live or not once he exhausted the supply of targets in the main complex.

The Turian had a marked advantage, having his weapon out and trained on the general direction of the corridor by the time the Batarian showed his face. Seren didn't fire right away - the few seconds before the ganger noticed him, he relaxed as best he could, corrected his aim, and gradually pulled back the trigger with an exhale of breath.

The gunshots rang out particularly loud in the confined space, the rifle letting off a short burst of four shots.

Seren allowed himself a brief smile behind his helmet. One thing you could be sure of with Batarians - most would give you a reason to shoot them as soon as they opened their mouths.

Not wanting to get rid of his informant yet, and more importantly not wanting to tip off the Batarian to his presence, the Turian crouched down so as to present a smaller target, switching his aim from the human to the corridor. At the same time, he raised up a hand with a single finger extended to his face - he hoped she'd get the point to keep quiet. The gesture was brief, though, and he quickly returned the hand to grip his rifle. He didn't want to have to take more than one shot.
