Chem Dogs: Escape From Dust

[Lighthawk]

1420 Day One

Hilda doesn't give the vox a second glance, after as little good as the last one was to her. Instead she motions to Zenthia to follow and makes her way up the stairs.

1250 Day 1


Sensimilla and Toke-a practically fell over themselves trying to dress as they heard the evac order. " Damn your fine ass; always a distraction," Toke-a grinned and hoped in the sidecar," Come on Sensi, lets go. Maybe there will be others at the landing field."

Sensimilla slings her shotgun over her solder as she straddles her bike. She slides her shotty in its holster in a very provocative way before bending down to put a love bite on Toke-a's lower lip. Battle Cat (her bike) roars to life leaving a spray of dirt and rocks in its wake.



1310 Day 3

Waiting in the distance Toke-a asks Senci, " What do you see?"

" Looks like a Commissar, a Judge, some guardsmen, three big dumb oafs, and two rough riders. Somethings happening, we better get over there before we lose our chance." Sensimilla kicked Battle Cat into gear and rode up to the group, " Hi there, Commissar. You have room on your ship for two more? We would be more the happy to show you our gratitude." She says with a wicked sultry grin.

1420 Day One:

Hilda finds the door to the control tower unlocked and upon stepping inside discovers a small vox station with chair off in the corner and a set of stairs winding it's way up.

Litila saw the two people enter a building on the far side of the starport, and let her assistant know. "Contact, two unknowns. We need to gather more information."

Raltus looked at the two soldiers, not able to make out much more due to the distance. They were by the fuel processing plant, where Litila ad he had been checking the hoses for proper storage and maintenance. The Control Tower was far in the distance, and he looked around. Spotting a small transport, Raltus gestured towards it. "We'd get there faster in that compared to walking."

"Confirmed. You perform the rituals of activation, I will perform ground check."

"Ok."

Getting in an performing the rituals to start the en-jinn, Raltus waited untilLitila was in, and headed over to the control tower, wondering what they would find.

1321 Day One:

Stranga unslings her shotgun and moves out on the Commissars order, fixing her bayonet as she heads for a bit of cover ten metres or so ahead of her.

1420 Day One:

Zenthia makes sure to take the start knob off the Iron Horse and pocket it before slotting her bayonet on her shotgun and follow the Arbites up the stairs, it was fine with her if the woman wanted to shot first.

Intias started as the bike sped up, and again at the riders.

'" Hi there, Commissar. You have room on your ship for two more? We would be more the happy to show you our gratitude.""

The sight of the two nearly naked women on the bike left Intias grasping for something to reply with. "You're almost out of uniform." Shaking her head she cleared it. "Yes, join up. Take point and scout ahead but maintain visual contact."

1310 Day1


" Aye, aye Commissar doll face." The girls retort in unison. Toke-a noticed Sensi eying the two women on the other bike and slapped her on her firm butt. "See something you desire, cup cake?"


Sensi looked back at Toke-a and replied, " Not unless you feel like a foursome, muffin." They laughed as they checked their gear, readjusted their rebreathers, then headed out.

1310, Day One

Lirk watched the human females called "Toke-a" and "Sensimilla" curiously. They seemed to be engaged in some type of courtship behavior. He turned to the Org brothers, pointed at the women, and said quietly, "They like couple, but both girls - no babies ever come." Lirk tapped his temple with one post-like finger and said sagely, "'Umans is crazy."

[Lighthawk]

1420 Day One:

With the top of the stairs in sight, Hilda waited a second for Zenthia to catch up, listening hard for any other sounds.

1310, day 1

Hak watched the newest members of the hastily forming team head out on scouting duty, and let out a low whistle. "Shit, I done been posted to the wrong company all these years. What's a fellow got to do to join up with these here rough riders?"

[Tyyr]

"Do as your told for starters, get moving or get left," Intias said.

1310, Day One

He turned to the Org brothers, pointed at the women, and said quietly, "They like couple, but both girls - no babies ever come." Lirk tapped his temple with one post-like finger and said sagely, "'Umans is crazy."

The brothers nodded with emphisis. Buck pointed and laughed. "Da stu'pid umans are tiny so no good babies comes anyways."

1420 Day One:

With the top of the stairs in sight, Hilda waited a second for Zenthia to catch up, listening hard for any other sounds.

They heard a faint whine outside, from an electrical vehicle, as Raltus and Litila arrived at the base of the comm building. From the top floor, if she looked out a window, she would be able to see the vehicle stopping, and two people getting out. One looked like a Chem-Dogs, but the unit flashes were wrong, while the other was obviously a Tech-Priest.

(At the bottom)

Raltus stepped out of the vehicle, and after quickly looking around for other surprises, called out, "Are you two calling for a ride," to the two soldiers he had seen enter the building.

Litila was more concerned though about the equipment, as there was only a 23.7% they knew the proper rituals for activating a comm-unit. Most infantry only knew step fifteen (to provide biological impact on the display unit), but the rest of the steps were often left out, resulting in the spirit's displeasure at a later date, which required far more appeasing and rituals to soothe its anger, and apologies for the actions of others.

[Lighthawk]

1310, day 1

"Aye ma'am!" Hak said with another salute, and started off for the port, taking point.

1420 Day One

The sight of a tech-priest was a welcome one for Hilda. Even if everything fit to fly was gone, with the priest there might be a chance to salvage something that had been left behind as unusable. Coming back down the stairs, she slung her flamer over her shoulder.

"No point in calling for a ride," she told them. "I've done enough yelling over a vox in last few hours to know it's pointless. Either we get ourselves in orbit or we stay here in the dirt. I don't suppose you'd still be here if you had but, you haven't seen anything laying about that can make orbit?"

I don't suppose you'd still be here if you had but, you haven't seen anything laying about that can make orbit?"

"I have not seen anything that is orbit-capable. During the evacuation, all assets would have been listed for retrieval by both the Mechanicus and the Administratum to ensure it was retrieved properly. Actual practice does not reflect that agenda, due to my presence.

"The highest probability for finding a transportation asset will be in the recycle yards, where we can aquire the necessary components for assembly into a working shuttle. However, we will need to search through multiple locations, and I do not know the extent of your knowledge for recognizing useful material."

Raltus just ignored the conversation about ground to orbit shuttles, finding stuff, and just stared at the heavenly bodies in front of him. Maybe being assigned to the Chem-Dogs wasn't such a bad assignment after all.

1310 Day One Hak

Hak sprinted forward to the edge of the wrecked intersection. The only way for a point man to survive was to haul ass and get down quick. If he did the guys who wanted to shoot him might just not be quick enough on the draw and have to settle for shooting the second guy that came in their sights. Hopping from crater to debris and a few pieces of what used to be fellow 'Dogs he found a good spot to hunker down and waved the commissar forward.

1313 Day One Intias

Intias led the 'Dogs head out first, taking point. Once they'd found cover she looked at Lirk, Buck, and Boar. "Follow me," she said before drawing her pistol and hustling across the intersection. The bombardment had torn up the ground only the way high caliber ordinance can. Asphalt was mixed in with the dirt and scraps of what used to be ground cars were strewn all over the place. Picking her way through the debris she crossed the intersection and moved a bit farther down the street in the direction of the starport. Amazingly after the churned up intersection there was little damage farther down the road. Picking a convenient ground car she ducked behind it, scanning the area ahead as best she could. Her pistol would do little at range but appearances had to be maintained.

1313 Day One Jastilus

Jastilus crouched on the edge of the crater scanning the road ahead. This was, of course, utter bullshit. His chickenshit lieutenant had no doubt pissed himself the second someone threw a rock at him and pulled out instantly, Jastilus be damned. Not that he expected his superiors to really give a shit about him, he was a Chem Dog after all but he was supposed to be the untrustworthy one who'd stab you in the back. "Why couldn't your father have pulled out," he muttered under his breath.

1420 Day One Hilda

Hilda sneered at the techpriest. "You want to build a shuttle?"

[Deepcrush]

"Follow me,"

Buck and Boar raced behind Intias. Their massive feet stomping and crushing as they went. No sense of cover or hidden movement. Buck howled out "We follow Com'sar!". Boar nodded and added "and pro'tek her too!". Their weapons raised, the brothers moved up, each one standing to the side of the Commissar.

Once they reached the ground car. The brothers crept forward, with as much creep as they were able. Moving in front of the wreck. "We go and look for stuff" Buck asked the Commissar. A confused look on his face.
