Hazmat: Reclaimer Role Play

Rek flipped over to auto and fired continuosly, until he realized he was being surrounded by the infected. "Dont we all. Kat. What is the position of Reclaimer to my signal?" He ran around from cover, slamming the butt of his assualt rifle into the face of one zombie while spin kicking the next. After knocking back another he fumbled a sachel charge and set the timer to ten seconds. He set the delay but not the timer and attached it to his armour. "Jacob! You ok?" Lieutenant Mirez jumped over the fallen zombies and launched into an attack against the creature, wasting his bullets. "Jacob... cover..." He leaped over the creatures swing and tackled the thing in the side. The assualt rifle was pressed directly onto the hardened skin. Pulling the trigger he fired at point blank. The monster sweaped its hand down and Rek removed and rapidly attached the sachel to the creature. (If you want it to survive then ok) The Lt was hit hard by the creature an sprawled back. He shook the daze off and dropped a grenade under the ceature (decoy). The delay on the exlosives timer reached '0' and the ten second fuse started. Rek was knocked back by the creature and slammed hard into the side of a car. The dent was nearly halfway through the car. Reks sensors told him the energy/particle shield was back. He smiled at the intelligent beast and ducked and rolled under the car.

Kat was on the ground by the time she got Rek's message. "We're on our way. I see nothing ahead of us. Seem that you've made a pretty clear path Rek.... We'll be there soon. Hang on." She nodded to the group and then took off at a dead run towards the city, her rifle raised and firing at anything that moved. Shannon and the others were close behind, finishing off what ever Kat missed. Soon they were looking upon the threesome. She lowered her weapon and squinted her eyes through the glair of her helmet. "Jacob?"

'Sachel Charge Fuse: 9 seconds.'
'Grenade Fuse: 5 seconds.'

Rek rolled and came up behind the car. "Kat. Send an image of the creature to command. My com is acting up from being hit." He rolled back as a fist slammed and dented the ground.

kk!))

Kat nodded and took a quick image of the ceature and Rek so they could get a size estimate. "Got it Rek. Get away from there!" Reclaimer raised ther weapons and aimed for the creature as Kat sent the image back to base.

"Don't bother. Shield your eyes. Bullets are harmless... Shit that nearly took my head clean off." Rek watched as bullets ricochead into surrounding walls. "Be a bit observant."

They didn't fire. -.-"😉)

Kat held up her hand telling Reclaimer not to fire. "I got the picture, now get over here Rek before you get hurt." She lowered her hand and sparred a quick glance around for any zombies, waiting for her sensors to pick up on Jacob again. "Where did he go?"

Jacob was standing about three feet behind the creature as the grenade went off. The might of the explosion sent him back about ten feet and left him in n haze. The creature looked almost unharmed except for a few broken areas of it's skin and the small bit's of armor it had were gone. "Is that all you have to throw against me!?" Jacob smirked. "No, you still have a satchel-" The Satchel went off and left barely any signs of the creature and sent Jacob flying even farther.

The first explosion was the grenade. He hoped the grenade would hurt the creature. The sachel blew in a blinding white light and erupted outwards from the point on the gardian. The creature was engulfed by the explosion. The blast wave sent the car and Rek heading towards the wall of a building. Pieces of the creature fell to the ground, smoking. Rek hit the wall hard and was immediatly faced with pain. "Just like the good old days." He whispered as the car slamed into him and the wall. Turning it into rubble.

It all happened slowly in a white flash. Kat couldn't take it all in at once. The first she saw to go down was Jacob, in whom’s direction she stepped only to be stopped by the sound of the car hitting the wall. She spun and nearly screamed with what she saw. Her rifle fell from her hand and landed on the ground at her feet. "Rek.... Oh my god REK!" She pulled off her pack and helmet, running towards the rubble, her eyes scanning the area for any signs of life. "Shannon go see if Jacob is ok the rest of you get over here!" She dropped her pack and her helmet beside the car, desperately trying to move bits and pieces of the wall away.

Jack was with the rest of Reclaimer, shooting any infected that he saw. But he wasn't paying attention something grabbed him by the shoulders.

Frank Mistara was in ops when the picture came in. "General! You gotta see this." He handed the picture to the General.

Rek felt pain. This was good because at first he couldnt feel anything. Slowly he came back to his senses. Blackness. Light. Lighter. Kats face? He pushed himself through the rubble.

She sighed heavily and reached in, pulling Rek out. "Oh thank god... Give me your hand... Come on lets get you out of there.. Are you ok?" Carefully she pulled him out and set him against the wall, taking off her gloves she dug into her pack and began to look over his armor. "If I touch something and it hurts then tell me." Lightly she ran her hand over his chest plate and helmet.

Shannon nodded at he mom’s words and ran to Jacob’s side. “My name I Shannon Sands is there anything I ca-.” She stopped and looked up at Jack. Quickly her hand went to her rifle, leveling it with Jack’s shoulder. “Move!” Her bullet flew past Jack’s cheek and into the forehead of a leaper behind him. “Wake up bud! I can’t keep an eye on everyone.” She set her rifle down and looked back at Jacob.

Jacob looked up at her and kinda of smiled. "Name's... Jacob Book. Lieutenant of Del..." He shook his head and dimmed the visor on his helmet and looked back at her. "C'mon, lets get back to you mother and Rek."

She blinked and nodded, reaching out and helping Jacob up. "How did you know she's my mom? You're not in Reclaimer and you weren’t at base camp." She picked up her rifle and took a quick glance around, just to make sure the monster behind Jack was dead, then she turned back to Jacob and started back over to her mother and Rek.

"I just pieced together the last name. You're mom never mentioned a sister so I just assumed. My bad." Jacob pulled himself up with her help and followed close behind her. This was only a taste of what was yet to come in this hell-hole of a city. Thinking for a moment, he turned quickly and snatched up his assault rifle.

Shannon stopped and waited for Jacob to get his gun and catch up. "Oh.. I didn't know you knew my mom.." She smiled and glanced over her shoulder. "You coming Jack?"

"Thanks." Replied Jack. He walked over to where they were, reloading on the walk there. Heh. He almost got it back there.

Rek waved Kats hand away. "If it hurts then it means I'm still... ah!... alive." He smiled and dragged himself to his feet. "Nice to see you again too." Rek picked up his assualt rifle and ejected the spent clip. He loaded another one and looked up to see Jacob and Shannon. He winced and realized he probably had a broken rib bone and probably worse. If he was taken back to the meds now he would be out of this fight. "No. Just a few bumps and bruises." He couldnt shake the feeling of de-ja-vu.

a leaper flew towards jacob. a sniper round slammed it away and crushed its skull. carlos and his squad came up. "secure the area." he told his squad mates. "jacob, its nice to see you again. listen, uav scanner spotted a group of infected headed our way." he pulled out a gps that showed all of the information from the uav. "and as far as i know, you have more knowledge of this city than the rest of us. so what do you think we should do next?" the rest of delta squad moved to carlos. "area cleared sir."

Kat smiled and shook her head, stepping back so Rek could get up. "That's why I wanted you to tell me if it hurts. Because right now you look almost dead." She smiled and glanced at Shannon and Jacob. "Jacob. How ya been?"
