Lux:
"That's everyone," Lux yelled as he stepped onto the Gauntlet. He sealed the door behind him as he moved towards his seat. "Let's get her moving Kry!"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heavy traffic could be heard from outside as the Gauntlet went to land. Kry swore a few times in his final approach, cursing someone who had flown to close to him as he finally touched down. With a final lurch, the Gauntlet dropped onto the landing pad beneath. The doors to it then opened as Lux stepped out.
"It's one of the smaller ports of Omega," he said as he took a look around. "But it's the only one we got access to."
While it was true that it wasn't the largest dock on Omega, the area was still massive. As the members of Aegis slowly funnelled out of the Gauntlet, the scope of the port hit them. The ports of Omega were its commercial lifelines. Goods of all nature were constantly surging through them. Whether it is minerals or Element Zero mined out and refined on Omega being exported elsewhere, or foods and luxury goods being sent in, every port was almost always active every minute of every day.
Where the Gauntlet had landed, several other smaller, local transports had also been left. Most of these were to take goods to the markets to sell. Larger ones were closer to the main docks, unloading minerals onto ships that would be sent to several other corners of the galaxy. This port was large enough to dock four larger cargo ships, and also allow for a couple dozen smaller ones to be sheltered. A few workshops and mechanics were also centred nearby, allowing for maintenance to be done on any ship in need, at rates which would likely force you to sell it to them afterwards.
When everyone was out of the Gauntlet, and Kry had taken off once more, Esten emerged from a nearby crowd, anxiously looking about.
Heh, Salarian's out of his environment. Doesn't like being down here in all the commotion.
Lux indicated for the company to form around him as he explained the plan.
"Alright, listen up, we're going to split off into three separate groups. Esten, you take Sal and Ocara and find a vantage point to overlook terminals B-7 through B-12. From what we know, they'll be coming in on a smaller ship, and will likely be arriving near there. Raven is to take Pali, Korat, and Brooks. He'll take the three of you to B-7 to set up around there and wait for them to arrive. That leaves me with Ter, and Jetta. You two are coming with me to B-12, where we'll do something similar."
Lux started to tap his fingers against the side of his armour, making sure that everyone knew who they were with before continuing.
"We're to intercept these guys, not kill them. We don't want to have a blood bath out here. It's too crowded, and it would lead to a dozens more problems after things cooled down. Now, they're going to be a crew of one of the smuggling ships. They'll be lightly armed, and there will be no more than five of them. Once we ID them, we're to close in on them. Try to surround them without alerting them. Don't go in with a gun and force them to do what we want, our numbers will do that for us. Once they're in our hands, we're going to walk them to a nearby landing zone, and put them on the Gauntlet. From there, we'll begin our... Negotiations."
Lux looked around at each of them for a moment, before asking, "Any questions?"
