"Yes just keep it quite , this is quite difficult even without the Gunfire and Mutated beasts. I'll be done soon."
Sindri continues working on the Tablet.

OOC: At least it didn't explode violently.

Operation Anvil-Night 1

As the grenade detonates inside the building, several dog-like creatures leap from the window, landing with heavy thuds in the powdered class. The unmen are horrible to look upon, their knees twisted backwards in such a way that they stalk forwards on all fours. Their lungs are set upon their backs, great swollen balloons that expand to unnatural size as the creatures suck in air. Their faces are uncomfortably human, with great fangs that burst from their man-jaws. Pale, lifeless eyes sit in their skulls, regarding you without emotion or care. When they expel the air from their lungs, it is done in great, long shrieks that threaten to deafen you. Fly drops Foley as they both scream as their skulls reverberate with the awful howling. James falls to his knees, blood poring from his ears as his eardrums explode. Mac opens fire with his pistol, melting the flesh from one of the abomination's faces, exposing the bone beneath in a shower of gore. As he looks on in horror and surprise as the creature picks itself back up and sways around in search of him, another of the things pounces on his back, driving him to his knees and attempts to remove his helmet in a flurry of biting and clawing. Gaz rushes forwards, attempting to swat the howler from his squad mate's chest, lifting and hurling it aside with a huge arm. Varz pops off a few shots with his pistol, saving Foley from disembowelment by breaking the beast's legs off at the knee. Each of Fly's limbs is held in the mouth of a howler, screaming as the creatures attempt to pull him apart in their jaws. James darts forward, desperately kicking the creatures back, firing point blank with his rifle, tearing two of them into oblivion. Opening up with his ripsaw, Gaz tears the final two creatures menacing James to gory chunks.

**Mortified**

Foley's heartbeat began to slow down as the commotion was over, at least temporarily.
"Lordy. Thanks, Varz."

**TheWildHost**

So, What kind of damage am I looking at? Broken limbs, losing limbs, scratches, or unscaved.

**darksage**

Am I dead? Dude, no one even rolled for anything.

**shroud010**

Just deafened until you can get that fixed.

**darksage**

OOC Oh, I see now I thought Gaz killed me.

**darksage**

James stumbles for a couple seconds trying to keep his balance as the ringing was constant in his ears. He continues to take out a cue tip to clean his ears.

**NHnighthawk13x**

mac thanks gaz for his help, he holsters his weapon but cocks his ripsaw while taking a deep breath just in case the animals came back again.
mac sighs with relief and says "well......... that was interesting"

**blood reaper**

"Ugh we may have a problem, mainly the fact that the Tablets gonna delete it's self. And it's not going to stop!"
Sindri drops the tablet and begins to back away.

Eagle, Rose, Pacify- Night 1

As you move through the darkness, a chime sounds over your com as the flat voice of the Administrator calls out; "Foundry A-16 is under assault by nonstandard units, provide reinforcement for Foundry garrison."

**darksage**

James, looks really irritated but keeps walking toward the earlier objective.

**shroud010**

understood command....i cloak and immedaitly rush to the foundry

**Vulkan_He'stan**

"I think they know were here.
Maybe we should hurry up?"
* Gaz speeds ups towards the objective

**Mortified**

"Uhhh...a little help, please?" I look around nervously at the others. If I could do so on my own two feet, I'd be hurrying off as well...

**blood reaper**

"We'll since nobody seems to care for the Tablet , I'll be leaving."
Sindri calmly begins to walk away

Operation Anvil, Eagle, Rose, Pacify- Night 1

The foundry is a massive black box, squatting in the night air, as large as an entire hab block, with great plumes of soot spewing into the air like some kind of fire-breathing monster. The night takes on an orange glow by the light of the great forges, and the sounds of machinery and cries of pain and labour echo throughout the night. As you reach the entrance, you note that the great mechanized blast doors have been breached by a wrecked UN dropship, which now smolders in the twisted wreckage of the blast doors. The sound of gunfire joins the din of industry, as well as the shrieks of things less than human.

**shroud010**

i enter, Command are there any friendly units here?

**Shas'ui T'au Kais**

"We should stay clear of the fight, as we do not want any casualties, it would be too damn difficult."

**Vulkan_He'stan**

"aww you ruin all my fun
so we sneak around it then?"

**darksage**

"We have too. Squad Beta is in there and this is where we're needed. Come on, when have we ever avoided fight?" James says eager to blow some brains from their skulls. "You with me on this one Gaz? Our objective is here."

**TheWildHost**

"I have an Idea" Fly blurts out "I infiltrate and drop some ' Bombs' on the conclave and shoot em"

**darksage**

"Well first lets enter the factory, shall we?"

**Vulkan_He'stan**

"I'm with James on this one theres other squads in there that could probably use out help
and I am bored at the moment."

**Shas'ui T'au Kais**

(Oh crap, what have I missed?)

**Mordoskul**

(Conclave Team)

There are fully seventeen militia units and over forty Conclave squads fighting within the Foundry accompanied by an unknown number of nonstandard allies.
