Looking for a ride
LeadBeast points to a adjoining walkway leading away from the landing pad. "This away.", He insists.
The squad runs along the walkway. They are soon in the shadows if other walkways resting at higher levels. Stacks of containers break up the monotony of the path.
The team reaches the end of the walkway, which meets a smaller landing pad. At the far side of the platform rest a small Torment transport. It's ramp sits open. It's multiple engines burn, holding the craft inches off the ground. Grunts standing near the craft spot the Shadowguns and start firing bolts of plamsa at the sqaud.
The team returns fire and the grunts quickly fall. Then a yellow clan Torment warrior steps down the ramp, carrying two heavy blades. He leap into the air and slam the ground. The impact shakes the platform. He turns to Ben and starts appouching he's position. Ben hold his sights on the Twinblade and slowly backs up. All the while, unloading clips from his AR into the unyelding alien. The squad focus their fire at the Torment's back. The Twinblade reaches Ben and raises a blade to strike him down, then the Torment's knees buckle and he falls dead.
"Persistent son of a bitch."Ben says as he loads another clip into is rifle.
"We are taking this ship."LeadBeast states.
The squad climbs the ramp. Looking back towards the Marlborough they see dozens of Torment troop-carriers delivering forces. They soon swam the landing pan.
LeadBeast orders,"Churpie, eject the cores."
There is a massive thud, like a a pair of deck cannons firing. One core punches through two low flying troop carriers, causing them to explode. Then through multiple supports, forcing a walkway to collapse; and finally burys itself into a large Torment ship parked on a neighboring landing pad. Then the core explodes, ripping the vessel apart and destroying several more troop carriers nearby.
At the same time, the other core destroys more supports and walkways on it's side. Then the core slams into the mountain side, followed by the core exploding. The shockwave ripples through the rock face. Large chunks of the cliff break free and fall. Their overbearing weight crushes the tower. The several more troop-carriers are buried under the rumble.
"Time to go." , proclaims LeadBeast.
