Mass Effect RP: The Aegis Protection Firm - Full

[Chicago Ted]

Vyaeh:

Vyaeh smiled as he walked out of the terminal and onto platform B. He took a moment to appreciate Omega for what it was. To him, Omega was nothing less than raw opportunity waiting to be taken advantage of. It was here that he could work, without laws or restraints, to get ahead. To get to where he wanted. In only a few short months, he had gone from a simple Navigator to a Captain of his own ship. It might have taken him years to achieve that on Illium, but on Omega, his talents would be propperly rewarded.

"Another good job," he said as he turned back to his crew a final time. Each of them were happy to be back home. A leave would be appreciated by all of them. "Remember, 36 hours before we do this all again. Get some rest, have some fun, and make sure to get your pay."

"Right, well, I'll be seeing you then Captain," he said, nodding as he gave the bag strap he had slung over his shoulder a firm tug. "I'll grab something to eat and see if I can find a few other pilots willing to lose their earnings to me again."

He turned off right, heading down to terminal B-9 before shouting back.

"C'mon Alex, get your ass in gear!"

Alex picked his back up as he gave a slight salute to Vyaeh as he passed.

"Take care Captain."

He then hurried up to catch up with Liam as they passed terminal B-9 and headed back down to the centre elevator.

"Let's go," Vyaeh said as he checked he had everything quick. His bag was closed, credits chit in his pocket, and pistols on his sides. He slung his bag over his shoulder as he indicated for Tres and Mertux to follow him.

Mertux gave final look around, before reassuring himself that he was safe, and joining up with Vyaeh and Tres as they headed towards the elevator beside B-12.

Finally home.

Sal nodded back Ocara and took a deep breath Everything will turn out fine, Sal'rena, just keep calm and remember your training. She thought to herself as she aimed down the sights of her rifle and tracked the targets. She wasn't planning on letting this turn out like her first mission.

Brooks:

Brooks opened his Comm as Liam and Alex walked past him.

"The two humans have broken off," he said as he took a step away from the wall and started to follow about fifteen feet behind them. "Will pursue."

 

[Chicago Ted]

Lux:

Lux watched as the three Salarians passed by B-11 and started to go by B-12.

"The Salarians are the main target," he said onto his Comms. "We need them captured. The humans are secondary, but we can't let them escape though. If you have the opportunity Ocara, put them down if need be."

Lux looked back up to see the Salarians getting closer and closer. They ignored him as best they could. After all, looking the wrong way at a Krogan would normally mean you'd wind up in a hospital a few hours later.

"Ter, Jetta, close it up. When I move, I want the two of you to be there to box them in."

 

[The Zango]

-Retconned out-

 

[thebobmaster_v1legacy]

"Understood, Lux." Getting up quickly, Terina walked out of the cafe, leaving her credits on the table to pay for her drink as she quickly, but casually, walked up to B-12. Spotting Lux, she moved up behind him. "What's the plan?" she asked quietly.

 

[Chicago Ted]

Lux:

"We wait until the elevator opens, and rush them as they enter," he said as he looked over at the Salarians.

They were within thirty feet of each other now. Lux had his eyes drilled into the back of the Captain while he his hand softly rested behind him, on the handle of his shotgun.

"When we get in there, I want the Salarians secured. Clear them of any weapons, and immobilize them. Do not kill them though, and don't try to seriously injure them. We want them to be able to walk to the Gauntlet, not carry them."

Lux paused a moment as he watched the elevator, anxiously waiting for it to open.

"We'll have to clear anyone else out of the elevator as well," he said, half to himself and half to Terina. "They should start running though once we go in. Don't want to start a full blown panic though."

He let out an annoyed grunt as he continued to look back between the Captain and the elevator.

"What is taking this damn thing?"

Paladin saw the two humans split off from the others, heading towards him. "The hell are they going?" he thought "Alright, think" looking around, he saw a public bathroom, and struck on a plan. Bringing up his comm he called Brooks,

"Brooks, you see me?"
"Yeah, what's up?"
"I'm going to try and get back behind these guys, there's a bathroom over here, I'm going to duck in, tell me when they go past me."
"Got it"

Ethan walked into the bathroom, standing by the door he took out his rope, trying it into a lasso like he did back on the ranch growing up. His practiced hands made the job quick and easy. Then he looped it back on his custom holder on the armor, waiting for Brooks to give him the call.

"Alright, Pally, they're heading past the door now"

Ethan waited a few seconds then headed out the bathroom door, seeing the two smugglers walking about a dozen paces in front of him. He kept with their pace, making sure that they wouldn't go anywhere without him seeing them.

Spoiler: ooc

checking if my post took, Because, I'm not seeing it

---Ok, I guess there's something up with the Escapist, because I didn't see it until I posted something else

 

[The Zango]

"Roger that Lux" replied Ocara, quickly adjusting his view to see the two Humans merging into the crowd. It looked like Brooks and Paladin would have to deal with, because a shot from his position would have to relay on guess work and probably some brand of shamanistic magic to hit the Humans, let alone anywhere non-lethal.

Plus he didn't think causing a panic in the crowds would be good for 'playing it cool' anyways.

"Good luck guys" continued the Sniper after a few seconds, before he returned his gaze to the Salarians, centering his cross-hair on the one in the center so that he got a good view of all the players.

 

[Chicago Ted]

Lux:

"What is taking that damn thing?" Lux asked rhetorically, getting more and more annoyed by its absence.

Then, as if being called by him, the elevator doors slowly opened, and people started making their way in and out of it.

"NOW!" Lux yelled as he pulled his shotgun out and rushed through the crowd.

Everyone in front of Lux made room as he charged forward. No one dared standing in the way of a Krogan yelling and brandishing a shotgun. The Engineer was the one he ran straight into. He only had enough time to turn around and look back before seeing Lux coming straight at him. He tried to turn out of the way, but only succeeded in taking Lux's full weight into his back.

"Tres!" Mert shouted as he looked up to see Jetta and Terina following close behind. Without hesitating a moment longer, he started pushing his way through the dense crowd, trying to lose them within it.

Vyaeh didn't attempt to leave though. Instead, as Lux focused on pinning Tres, Vyaeh dove into the elevator, taking what cover he could by its side, and drew his pistols.

"Let him go!" he yelled from inside at Lux.

I can't just leave him there! But there's no chance that I can take the rest of them on either!"

 

[lemiel14n3]

One of the two humans in front of Ethan opened his omni-tool then, in shock, turned around in a fast 180 degree spin. As he saw the armored man behind him, he found Paladin's lasso wrapped around his chest and arms, preventing any upper body movement. Ethan moved in to tackle him, sending the smuggler crashing to the ground. He pulled his limbs together to hogtie him, but the man's thrashing made the process difficult. Ethan took an elbow to the face and a series of blows to his armor before being able to restrain the smuggler.

During the process he saw through the increasingly panicked crowd the other human booking it down the complex and into an alley. He saw Brooks giving chase, moving at an impressive speed after his prey.

Ethan finally got the man tied up, rope binding his hands and feet together in something resembling the fetal position. Not wanting to let the second get away, but not wanting to let the first out of his sight, he contacted Brooks over the comm, "Brooks, you got that guy?"

 

[thebobmaster_v1legacy]

Terina frowned. "Don;t make this harder on yourself than it has to be!"

Spoiler: On more

I'll be on a lot more. New-found down time due to injury.

 

[Chicago Ted]

Vyaeh:

"Let him go," Vyaeh yelled. While his voice came off sounding authoritative and commanding, it took almost all of his concentration from keeping it from quaking. He knew he wasn't in a position to bargain here. He knew that if they said no, there would be nothing he could do to save them.

I have to warn the others.

Vyaeh opened his Omni-Tool, trying to operate it while keeping his eyes focused on the elevator door in case anyone charged through. It only took him a moment to open his messaging as he sent one to Liam and Alex. All it said was run.

Vyaeh closed his Omni-Tool once more and readied himself by the elevator door. Everyone else had cleared away from the elevator, leaving Lux and Terina standing in front of it with their weapons drawn. Lux kept his leg planted on Tres's chest, keeping him from moving.

"Get out here," demanded Lux. "And drop the weapons."

 

[Chicago Ted]

Brooks:

"GET BACK HERE YOU SON OF A *****!" Brooks yelled as he chased the Smuggler down the alley between two shops.

The alley was tight, offering little room to move as Brooks turned a corner, trying to keep as close to the pilot as possible. As he weaved past a dumpster, his Comm Channel opened to the voice of Korat.

"Human! Where is the pilot headed," Korat growled over the channel.

"Alley across from B-7," Brooks responded as he quickly ducked down, barely dodging a bottle the pilot grabbed from the ground and tossed back at him. "Should be coming out by B-6 soon!"

Brooks finally made a dive at him, grabbing the back of the pilot's leg and bringing him down. The two struggled on the ground for a moment as Brooks tried to pin him down. He was unable to grab a hold of his other leg though, and in an instant, had been able to pull it back before drilling his boot into Brook's face.

Brooks lost his grip of the pilot's other leg as he reeled back. His face contorted from the blow, as he tried to push through the pain and get back up. He could feel the blood slowly trickling from his nose. He quickly pushed himself back up, regaining his balance, as he started to chase after the pilot once more. He could see the end of the alley up ahead, and where it joined back onto the busy street.

 

[New York Patrick]

"Alley across from B-7!"

Korat bolted at the number. He had opted to stay farther back from the crowd for this purpose; easier to chase a target if you are already ahead of them.

Barreling with a fiece quickness, Korat zigzagged through a few back alleys, lept from a small concrete ledge, (leaving a series of hairline fissures on the softer ceramic walkway he landed on,) made his way to intercept the target.

Between the target's projected location and Korat was a large and crowded street. Projecting the most efficient path, Korat slid between the stands of two street vendors, lept onto the hood of a parked commercial transport vehicle, and bounded across to the other side, causing a salarian in a red car to swerve out of the way. As he heard the sound of the vehicle's metal exterior skid against pavement, he thought to himself, his mind in the passion of the hunt, "today is a good day...'

The krogan continued down the street, passing abruptly and violently through the pedestrians, as he headed towards his destination. He could see the alley coming up ahead of him, and ferociously burst through a crowd watching extranet news footage on a large moniter in order to reach it, knocking some members of the crowd completely on their backs as he slid past them.

Korat pivoted into place at the alley entrance. The target was heading for him, looking back at a persuing Brooks. The target was worried, which made him more careless as he focused on his known persuer; he undoubtably noticed little about the one he did not know of blocking his path...

An excellent advantage for Korat to exploit.

Korat, in a rather fluid movement, reached forward, swiftly grabbed the target, and threw him at the wall to the left with a deaffening thud.

"I believe this is the part where I am obligated to state a witty remark."

 

[thebobmaster_v1legacy]

Terina stepped back, doing as Lux requested. "As you wish."

 

[Chicago Ted]

Lux:

Lux turned his head to face Terina. His gun was still trained on the elevator, but his eyes were locked on her.

"Not no," he said, his annoyance clearly visible.

She's even greener than Brooks...

 

[Chicago Ted]

Esten:

Esten emerged from the narrow corridor running parallel above level B that he had lead Ocara and Sal through to get above in. He looked at the two, both looking down below, annoyed that they hadn't taken action yet.

"Waiting for them to escape?" he asked.

 

[thebobmaster_v1legacy]

Terina quickly trained her shotgun back towards the elevator, her face flushed. "Of course. My apologies for misunderstanding."
