Re: Torrance Station: Business Sector
Once Diego had what he needed he looked to the others - were they a ragtag bunch or what? The boy had just collapsed into a ball on the floor, he wasn't even crying anymore, just sitting there in silence, his eyes glued to the door that kept lurching with the force of the Reavers trying to break it down. He could tell that Geoff was in no small amount of pain ... but there was nothing he could do about that. Wei-Li was alright though and obviously quickly regaining her breath. Diego swallowed hard as he got ready to tell the others what he needed them to do - knowing there would probably be protests. These were good people, but Diego knew what had to be done.
"We go through the back door. The Reavers aren't stupid, they're going to see us going out that way and come around the corner." he looked seriously at Geoff, "I need you to lay me cover fire - there's another service hall door just down the hall. I need to get in there. Once I'm through you run straight down the hall, the docks are at the end of it, I trust you will find your Destiny there. Don't wait for me ... I'm not coming." he took a whole box of the grenades, "I'm going to blow the station. You heard Kale, the Reavers are boarding all the ships that make it out, this is the only way to take them all down - and to put those remaining out of their misery ... you must go quickly. I will wait ten minutes," he set the clock around his wrist for that amount of time and handed it to Wei-Li, "When that goes off I'm blowing the station ... I wish you all the best of luck. And tell Kale ... tell him he was right." Diego grinned slightly, "And that I owe him a thousand credits in the next life - he'll know what I mean." with that he moved to the door and waited for the others to be ready. This was it.
