Re: C9 : 3rd Platoon - Squad One
The 30-something skelebots split up into groups of four. Each squad seems to choose one target as Squad One pours in through the entrance. Just as they open fire, Portia, Van and Callie appear at the east wall.
Burd and Severin are inside first, and Karnon is right behind them. Burd tosses several grenades among the bots, and Karnon throws a small black sphere between two squads. The plasma grenades explode among the front 3 squads, then the anti-matter ball from Karnon explodes on one skelebot's chest, enveloping everything within a 20 foot radius. All eight skelebots in the radius are completely vaporized. Braga remains outside and uses the right-side barn door for cover. He fires at one four times in the chest before they return fire. The barn door is shredded as Braga runs for his life along the door, then diving for the ground. The skelebot he shot up is badly damaged, but fighting on.
Oksana teleports behind the rear-most skelebot and slashes his head, and his back. The skelebot turns around quickly, and takes aim with the rail gun, which is immediately parried by Oksana and the gun is aimed at the ground when it fires. She slashes it twice more before the other three bots in the squad turn to open fire on her, moving around the pillar to get better shot. Oksana teleports back outside the barn, and prepares to jump back in.
Van is first to surprise attack from the east, he chooses one unsuspecting bot and fires six times before it finally drops, landing all but one into its chest. Portia enters behind Van and launches Maagic nets from her hovercycle, ensnaring the two entire squads of four, and the three left over after Van melts one.
Thasha jogs in alongside Karnon, and fires at the far left-bots, damaged already by Burd's plasma grenades. He doesn't destroy any, but damages at least three of them.
Calliandra eventually joins in the fray, and blasts one behind the skelebots in Portia's nets.
Severin finishes his spell, and covers another skelebot in a magic net, just as an explosion on the north side of the barn, followed by Flat Bullet and Vashti from Squad Two. Flat Bullet dives to his chest to avoid crossfire, and fires at teh closest skelebots. The six-armed Vashti The Bold charges right for the bots and attacks a squad with swords. Shortly after, massive holes are blown in the west side of the barn from the boom guns of Squad Two. Every skelebot hit is completely destroyed, or blown in half.
After just fifteen seconds, only eight are left standing, which are cut down when Tyirrak leaps into the midst of one squad, tearing them limb from limb, and Vashti finishes up with his squad of four.
Severin was hit only once, while Burd and Thasha were each hit four times. The rest of Squad One is spotless.
The short few seconds, felt like an hour... and the silence is unsettling...
The ramp in the middle of the barn leads down to an elevator, with closed doors...
