#FreedomFalls – November 20, 2014

Renala puts down the tools and enables her omni-tool to look up schematics on the Extranet.

Mendez continues to quietly move and stack crates to create a defensive position facing the door. (Jason_Wolfe)

Vasquez glances at her omni-tool, still hoping she might recieve a message. At the lack of one she sighs quietly, shaking her head and helping Mendez move crates.

Kim is standing outside the door at attention.

Damien moves down the approach corridor, Avenger rifle on his back, Carnifex at his side and the addition of a single pauldron on his left shoulder with additional pouches strapped to his body. Effectively now a walking ammo bank.

Steve gives a slight shrug as his question goes unanswered. "So these are the guys that took down the office, huh?" he asks, "They pack a lot of firepower, I take it?" (Jason_Wolfe)

Victoria continues leaning against the wall

Damien nods once to Kim as he moves towards the hangar bay.

A shuttle can be faintly heard approach from the north.

Damien turns his head toward the makeshift defences, striding over to give a hand. His helmet hides his features.

Jason gives Damien a nod. "Welcome to the party..." he sighs as he hears the shuttle and glances arbitrarily in its direction. "Sounds like our guests might be arriving."

Do you think they've brought plus ones?

Kim nods towards Damian when she sees him, but otherwise makes no movements or tries to bar his path in any way.

Renala brings out a wire-cutter and starts cutting wires according to the schematic, being careful to not cut the wrong ones. She gets anxious at the sound of the shuttle, and starts working a little bit faster.

Vasquez nods in answer to Steve's question while removing the Confetti Maker from her back and placing it on its side on the crate. She unfolds a small device from the underside and soon the machinegun is held in place by a mass effect field.

Jason gives Damien a shrug. "No idea, but they'd be crazy not to after all the damage they've caused us so far."

Damien places a crate down and bobs his head in agreement. "True. Still, we'll send 'em packing."

"If we have guest coming, why don't we set up an ambush?" Victoria asked the group

Hopefully we won't need to. If they're willing to 'play nice' then this might be resolved without any shots fired.

The shuttle can still be heard, but it gets louder and louder.

Since when are we that lucky?

Vasquez stops what she's doing, looking over her shoulder at Victoria with a confused expression. She opens her mouth as if to say something, but goes silent, looking up at the sound of the shuttle. "They're not seriously going to try to get in through the roof, are they? What the hell is flight control doing? Do they have a hangar?"

The shuttle draws nearer until it can be heard just above, slowing down at a remarkable speed. Judging by the sound, it seems to hover over the roof of the building.

Vasquez curses to herself and starts typing on her omni-tool, calling the militia commander up on audio.

Renala grits her teeth as she keeps cutting power supply cables. There's a large amount of cables within the panel, making identifying each one of them difficult. "Fuck, this thing was built to take a beating," she says. "I need more time."

Damien looks up and hovers a hand over his Avenger.

Jason frowns as he stares up at the ceiling. "Well I don't think you're gonna be getting much, Renala. Kill that door!"

Mendez pauses what he's doing momentarily and glances up at the shuttle bay door before continuing with his crate stacking. (Jason_Wolfe)

Vasquez yells into her mic: "What the hell is going on?! There's a shuttle hover over our hangar! Where is the militia?"

A few people seem to get out of the shuttle by the faint thumps against the hatch.

A turian answers Vasquez' call. "I was just about to call you," he says. "We're getting our men in position. The shuttle was approved to pass by, but broke off from the approved trajectory seconds ago."

Guests are here early...

Damien pulls out the Avenger, holding it across his chest.

Vasquez lets out an annoyed grunt. "You need to t-... fuck! They're on the roof!" She grabs the Confetti Maker and janks it off the mass effect mount after vaulting over the crate. "To the other side of the barricade! They'll be coming down in the center if they get through the ceiling! Briggs, grab the salarian!"

Damien moves to the other side of the barricade, powering up his tech-armour.

Renala doesn't respond as she keeps picking out wires and checking them. She is about to cut a wire when an electric shock surprises her and she backs off, clutching her upper arm. "Shit. I thought I cut the fucking power," she grunts.

It doesn't take long to figure out what happened, for the ceiling door start opening slowly.

Vasquez activates her comms yet again: "We need your gunships right fucking now!" She puts her weapon back on the mount, aiming it upwards in a movement that forces her into a crouch.

Damien drops to one knee and aims the rifle upwards, peering down the sights.

Victoria gets into position behind the barricade and gets her avenger at the ready.

(Comms) Gunships will be arborne shortly.

Jason cusses loudly and pulls his Revenant from his back, aiming it up towards the door in the ceiling. "Where the fuck is the militia, Linda!?"

Mendez drops the crate he's holding and pulls his shotgun free. He looks over the weapon to make sure it's ready for action. (Jason_Wolfe)

Steve gives Vasquez a nod and makes his way over to Jelvan. "Whaddya want me to do with him?" he asks. (Jason_Wolfe)

Renala prepares her biotics and sends a warp field into the panel, not indenting anymore to be able to repair it afterwards.

Vasquez growls over the comms. "You don't have gunships on standby?!" She turns the comms off and looks at Steve. "Get him behind cover and make sure he doesn't get away!"

Steve nods to a corner of the room with some crates. "You heard the lady." he says as he starts towards the crates. (Jason_Wolfe)

The warp field gets the point across, causing several wires and components to lose their integrity, and after a few sparks fly, its power is cut completely. The shuttle bay door also stops moving, but the opening is about 2m/6.5ft wide.

Jelvan nods and gets off the crate, following Steve without a word.

Steve pulls a couple crates away from the wall and instructs Jelvan to stay behind them. "Stay here. Give me a reason to think you might run and I'll put one in each leg. We on the same page?" he says casually. (Jason_Wolfe)

Jelvan nods. "Understood," he says as he takes cover behind the crates as instructed.

Steve nods and takes a position beside the salarian. "Perfect." he replies. (Jason_Wolfe)

Jason stares up at the gap in the ceiling, aiming his Revenant towards it. "Think that did it?" he asks, "No way they're going to try squeezing through that..."

Damien adjusts his grip on his rifle. He doesn't take his eyes off the bay door as he speaks. "You'll be surprised. But it'll be a slaughter if they do...".

(Comms) Gunship 1 is airborne and en route to your location. Gunship 2 will be airborne in 20 seconds.

Victoria keeps her sights on the baydoor, keeping focus on the opening.

Vasquez mutters about militia incompetence while cycling to AP ammo.

A few footsteps can be heard above, but it's difficult to get a count on them. A turian can be seen appearing in on the edge of the shorter side of the opening closest to the edge of the roof. "Surrender the salarian!" he shouts. "Or we'll open fire!"

Renala quickly turns towards the shouting voice, aiming her Locust at him as she steps towards the nearest cover.

Damien snorts, but remains quiet apart from that.

(Comms) Looks like they're gonna try coming in through the ceiling, Kim. Any chance you can get outside the building and in a position to get a bead on them?

Vasquez gives a brief glance to each side before taking aim at the turian - she doesn't fire just yet.
