Crashed and Burned (Closed, IC)

The ice gave away in moments. It melted into a puddle on the ground, some of it becoming vapor temporarily. The door's motion sensor kicked in, and slid open. Inside as a sizable room, about 8x8 meters. Shelves were packed inside tightly, holding boxes of various foods, all about the quality of rations, flavor-wise.

"Alright, A couple of us should head in, and the rest stand guard. We don't want that thing sneaking up on us." Said the Detron Operative.

"Alrighty, let's get you inside. Turns out, void powers are pretty toasty, so I'm gonna see if I can warm you up a bit." he said, helping Frohz to his feet. "The other three of you will take turns on watch, two at a time, starting with, ah, you." He pointed to Detron and Tetra. "We'll switch in five minutes to keep people alert."
After getting the near-frozen operative inside, he looked around. "Okay, let's warm you up a bit..." he muttered, grabbing a box of rations from the shelf. Kinsey hopped out of their frame yet again, this time aiming at the rations, trying to let out only a trickle of void energy, enough to heat the food packets. Once they were warm enough, they brought the makeshift heating pads to Frohz. "Okay, I bet this'll feel nice, huh? Stuff them into your suit, under your arms and around your torso." They smiled reassuringly. "I'll go look for a drink to warm up for you, too."

"No. T-this is g-good. Thanks." He said, his shivering already going away. "Alright, l-let's see how much we can grab before we keep going. C-can you carry a few of these boxes? I'll load some packets int-t-to my bag."

Frohz removed the backpack-like bag he was wearing, and started grabbing packs at random, stuffing them into his bag. He was able to fit quite a few, and they weren't especially heavy.

"L-listen. I know you figured it out, Leveret." 'Frohz' said. "Please don't tell them who I am. I'd rather they n-n-not know. If C-c-Clogori finds out, I'm dead."

"Yeah, I got them. Don't push yourself too much though, you were literally half-dead just a bit ago."
Leveret, again back in his warframe - by far the most the tenno had swapped back and forth in a while - grabbed a few boxes of food.
 

"I won't tell Clorgori unless it comes up. But I'm sure you understand my surprise when you say you don't work with perrin and yet....here you are." He said as he headed to the door to check on the operatives outside.

"Okay, give that here," he said, taking the lanka and slipping it over his shoulder as they walked, "you sure you can keep up? We can't afford to take a break, but I might be able to improvise."

Leveret's comm signal was cutting out more and more as he moved away from Chegar. "{Not great. We had to take another route because of damage to the ship, and I'm the only one with decent insulation against the cold. Be ready to thaw out an operative or two when we get back. I haven't got much to keep them warm in the meantime, so let me know if you have any ideas.}" He said over the comms, sounding slightly desperate.

"{Just keep us up to date as a best you can. If things go south, I'll try and get a party to you.}" Chegar finally said turning his attention back to Clogori

9 hours ago, Daakjenaar said:

"Comms are down. As in, the comms array is physically broken. If we do get it working, the only people to respond would be the Grineer." Clogori answered. "I say we try to get some of the smaller ships working and make a break for Charon Relay."

Most of the operatives had been healed at this point, with a couple still having minor bruises.

Chegar did a double take, looking at Clogori in a confused manner. "Charon Relay...? If you mean the Orcus, that's a pretty long jump. not to mention... well... Look." Chegar began playing back the footage of him leaving the Hangar with Leveret, and the explosion that followed. "I don't recall how many other hangars we had, or how they would've fared. But if they've suffered something like this, salvaging something that'll even fly will be a miracle."

(Oops. There I go mixing up my relays and Greek mythology.)

"That.... uh... certainly hurts my plan a little. Maybe we could try and... no... that won't work." Clogori said, clearly out of ideas.

Clogori started pacing back and forth, worried. What if they really were stuck here? How are they supposed to leave? He was going through every possibility he could think of, but none of them would work in their situation.

(Someone hasn't done Kuva siphons in a while.)

"Fake identity. I was here to find out information on Clogori. I needed to know what his plan was." Efahz said. "Listen. Don't trust Clogori. He's dangerous. This plan he's working on could kill thousands of innocents by accident. Maybe even more. Clogori's target is the Grineer, but his weapon is an indiscriminate killing machine."

(ya got me there. even if I do, though, I generally play damage sponge while the squishy operators do their thing)

"Fair enough. And believe me, I don't trust that guy at all." He paused. "You're right, I don't like the sound of this, even less than I did before." He patted Efahz on the shoulder. "Thanks for telling me."

Chegar started tapping his foot, also trying to think of a solution.
"I think we have two options. 1: we try to salvage as many resources as we can, and try rebuilding on of the landing craft. if we can rebuild one of the foundries, we may have a chance. 2: we try to make it to one of the various corpus salvaging areas. They always have shuttle craft near by, and we just might be able to condemner one."

((just checking, does he seem to be doing better? because if he's still half-frozen I'm not letting him leave yet.))
"Hey, I believe you." Leveret said. "But we can't do much releasing when we're stuck here, so let's fix that first, alright?"

A line of text crawled across Chegar's HUD. [CLOGORI IS MAKING WOMD. CAN'T LET HIM OFF PLANET OR SHTF.] ((that would be weapon of mass destruction and sh-t hits the fan))

(He's doing better. Before he was stuttering as bad as me. Now he stutters like a person who had too much coffee.)

"Alright. I got everything I can carry. This should give us a while longer to get an actual squad here t-to salvage the rest of this." He said, lifting his bag. "C-can I have my gun back?" He asked. He seemed to be doing much better, compared to minutes before.

"I was informed just now that a storm is incoming. I'll task some people to find a salvage base, but our launch window has passed. Best case, we can get off of Europa in four days, if the storm passes in three and it takes a full day to reach and commandeer a nearby base, longer if it's a fair distance away." Clogori responded. "Until then, we send out more squads to scavenge what we need to keep us alive for the time being."

"Yep, you're clearly doing better. Here." Leveret passed the lanka back.
"Let's move out," he said to the operatives outside, "We still need to make it to the medbay. I do like our chances, though. Things are looking up at the moment."

(If that counts as a firework exploding in their face, this'll be like detonating a nuke.)

As they continued through the vents, they heard a very loud noise. Someone yelled "Open sesame, mother f-cker!" Followed by a sound not unlike an explosion. All in all, quite loud. The vent shook slightly during the "explosion".

The ice gave away in moments. It melted into a puddle on the ground, some of it becoming vapor temporarily. The door's motion sensor kicked in, and slid open.

The figure clutches their ears in pain, the cacophony of sound blaring like speakers at max volumes with the knob ripped off in the enclosed space.

What is this, open season?! the figure thinks to themselves between gasps for breath as the vent forcefully goes unnaturally quiet again. Since when are wrecks filled with this many explosions?!

Having enough of the fireworks and finally wanting to get their hands on something tangible, the figure jams their hands and feet onto the interior of the vent. Surging energy through their extremities as their kavat slides and latches on onto their hooded back, a power RUMBLE rings through the interior of the ship and straight at the Frost's group. With the force of a cannon, the figure follows up with a mighty explosion of sound, using the shockwave to fire them out through the vent and unintentionally aimed at the Frost, closing upon them within moments. All throughout Leveret's position, walls and floors everywhere shook like an earthquake as the reverberations surge under and all around their feet.

Leveret yelled in surprise, dropping the boxes he was carrying and pulling Efahz towards the doorway, bracing himself against the side and using his broad shoulders to shield the operatives against the inevitable falling debris.
"That...that wasn't Big Ugly, and it wasn't the wreck settling. We need to move. Now!" He said.

The rumbling intensifies, knocking the unsteady off their feet and close to rattling the metal interior off what little intact hinges are left, then in a flash the entire are goes silent. Abnormally so, like someone just dropped a muffler on everyone.

In the synthetic silence, an overhead grate silently pops off and smashes into the Frost's helmet. Shortly following that the hooded figure and catpack come shooting out and again at the Frost's helmet, arms held out as a shield before bouncing off and somersaulting to a splayed lying down stop in front of their feet. Though the collision isn't enough to break a frame apart by any means, it would certainly have a noticeable impact on all but the most sure footed.

As soon as the grate made contact with leveret's (already dented) helmet, he ducked protectively and put up his arms. When the hooded figure made contact with the surprised frost, he was braced and ready, and touching the frame sent a profound chill through them, freezing them on contact. ((mmmmm that frost passive))

Efahz had been knocked over in all of this, along with the Detron Operative. The two operatives still standing opened fire, one with a Tetra and the other with a Supra. Neither of then aimed especially well, and almost every shot ended up damaging the shio more than the intended target. The Detron Operative scrambled back to his feet, but only got one shot in before he fell over again, this time slipping on a patch of ice.

"Identity the source of the sound! Get surveillance up! Contact any salvage teams nearby! Find out what that thing is!" Clogori ordered, reaching for his pistols.

The figure gets flash frozen in ice, but is just as quickly shattered out of it by the poorly aimed shots fired by the perrin grunts. As the figure collapses on the metal floor, the Frost would finally get a good look at the unexpected guest.

The person is clad in full body furs, dyed grey and white like the unforgiving environment outside. Their face is covered in an equally fuzzy hood, the edges dangling to shape their eyes in darkness even at their sprawled angle. Stripes of the previous color palette cover their mouth, the fabric of what might be assumed to be a scarf puffing out back and forth from the figure's ragged breath.

The figure slowly rolls to the side and gets onto their feet, holding their back in pain from the rough landing. On where they landed, a kavat sporting a grey and white armor set mewls weakly, not physically hurt by the impact or flash freeze, but more from being sat on by it's master. The figure turns around and upon noticing the Frost, faces them and points a gloved finger between the frame's eyes(?) and begins pointing vigorously, while the hand reaches up and pulls down it's scarf(?), revealing a human, if pale and slightly tinged grey skin and lips. The mouth is going off like a storm, though the unnatural silence still hangs over the area.

Finally, ambient noise slowly fades back into existence, and a space is filled with a fluent speaking female voice, with a hint of an accent. A native dialect perhaps? At the very least it's much more organic than typical corpus chatter. (if anyone can think of a way to describe the tone of that voice, please let me know. just saying it's an accent doesn't feel right with me)

"_{^{..........were you thinking? Are you trying to bring down what little of this ship is still standing around us?! Haven't you ever heard of a thing call}ed finesse?! Have some respect for the neighbors!!! What's so valuable that you you gotta broadca}st your location to everything within a kilometer radius! Because if it *isn't* valuable I am going to be *so* disappointed. You see this?"

The figure points at her face, the upper half still cloaked by presumably her hood while her lips are scrounched up in an expression of petulant annoyance.

"*This*, is my annoyed face."

Leveret started out surprised but quickly became equally as annoyed, swatting the arm out of his face with one hand and stepping closer to the figure to make the slight height difference a bit more imposing as he got between the figure and the operatives. "DON'T make this about me. You're the one attacking me and what's left of the crew! You're the one detonating explosives in the hangar! You should be glad I didn't SHOOT you while you were yammering at us!" he yelled, jabbing his finger against her chest.

The four operatives slowly walked closer, weapons aimed. Between the Tetra, Supra, Lanka, and Detron, there was a lot of firepower here. The ones holding the Supra and the Detron were knocked over moments ago, and were still a bit off-balance.

"I'd rather avoid trouble here." Said the one with the Tetra. "Just don't attack, and I'm sure we can work this out." His voice sounded just the slightest bit nervous, not sure what this person could do.

Meanwhile, the one with the Detron seemed more focused on the Kavat, not sure whether to outright shoot it or not. He had never seen one of these creatures before, but had heard disturbing stories about what they could do to a person.

The temperature here was a bit warmer than other parts of the ship, but was still pretty friggin' cold. (BC is getting an Arctic front next week, and the coast is being hit hard by wind (Tornado warnings) so this is what I assume the next month will be like. I'm jealous of Alberta sometimes.) Ice had already started to creep up the door Leveret had just thawed.

Chegar began marching towards the source of the sound, taking his sobek from his back. He extended the wings on his Elytron, taking another look at Clogori.
"I'll keep an eye out for a heat generator. I'm still gonna push for the foundry; as much scavenging as we'll be doing in the next 36 hours, we'll need something to help lessen the load." Chegar said, some of the cold wind catching on the duct-tape patches on his Warframe. "So... unless you want me to hold down the fort, I think I should see what exactly that racket's all about." He continued, engines revving up. "Last chance to tell me to stay put."
<LEVERET, IF YOU HAVE HELMET-CAM FOOTAGE, LINK US UP.> A line of text crawled over Leverets HUD, Chegar obviously having heard the noise coming from his position.

Helmet-cam footage was hastily linked, it was clear Leveret was in the middle of yelling at someone. The signal was choppy, and some of the text that usually appeared along the sides of the transmission were, momentarily, in the grineer language, and Leveret only seemed to notice and adjust the input once another operative spoke up.
<SORRY ABOUT TECHNICAL DIFFICULTY THERE, A BIT OCCUPIED AT THE MOMENT. GOT OURSELVES AN UNWELCOME SCAVENGER.> is what the text said.

"I need you to stay here for now." Clogori explained. "If Tarnas gets in here, I don't think I can beat him myself. They can handle whatever's going on. However, we need to think how we'll survive the next three days of the oncoming storm, and protecting our center of operations is the main priority."

Clogori walked back to the window  (I seriously need more poetic names for it) and stared out at the mass of dark clouds heading their direction. The next few days would almost definitely be harsh, to say the least.

((don't mind me, just applauding your descriptive skills here! the scarf moving back and forth with their breath? fantastic!!))

Leveret started out surprised but quickly became equally as annoyed, swatting the arm out of his face with one hand and stepping closer to the figure to make the slight height difference a bit more imposing as he got between the figure and the operatives. "DON'T make this about me. You're the one attacking me and what's left of the crew! You're the one detonating explosives in the hangar! You should be glad I didn't SHOOT you while you were yammering at us!" he yelled, jabbing his finger against her chest.

"WHAT explosives?! I only just got here this morning when this ship crashed looking for valuables when you and your trigger finger turned me into an ice cube for the second time!"

The girl/woman brings her swatted hand back up front and starts jabbing the Frost's chest.

"And when I got free and tried trailing you again, some BONEHEAD tries to kill me in the vents with enough fireworks to fill a house, then break my neck, then slit my throat when that didn't work either! In *that* order! I mean look at me!"

The girl waves around her arms in clear exasperation. "Do you see me lugging ANY of kind of stuff needed to blow ships apart?! And why would I blow up a ship when there's still loot to be found, that's just nuts!"

The four operatives slowly walked closer, weapons aimed. Between the Tetra, Supra, Lanka, and Detron, there was a lot of firepower here. The ones holding the Supra and the Detron were knocked over moments ago, and were still a bit off-balance.

"I'd rather avoid trouble here." Said the one with the Tetra. "Just don't attack, and I'm sure we can work this out." His voice sounded just the slightest bit nervous, not sure what this person could do.

Meanwhile, the one with the Detron seemed more focused on the Kavat, not sure whether to outright shoot it or not. He had never seen one of these creatures before, but had heard disturbing stories about what they could do to a person.

(jealous of our -10 degree evenings and continuous snow starting wednesday up to 25cm till sunday? to each their own, though I'm pretty sure the arctic front isn't hitting *just* BC, myself :x)

The armor clad kavat pays no mind to the radiation spewing pistol aimed at it nor the cold temperatures around it, content to huddle up in between the girl's legs for now. That said, it's body language is one of readiness should someone's hand decides to twitch in the wrong direction.

"Oh, and survivors too, not that you're making my life any easier." The girl grumbles, directing her line towards the soldiers behind the frost, treating the aimed weapons with equal indifference.

"Seriously, noise pollution IS a thing you know! My head is still throbbing from barely escaping the vent death trap, and your round of bombs is *not* helping..."
