[b]Chapter 26[/b]
The bullet pierced the guards skull and he fell to the ground limp and lifeless. The second guard, armed in his exo suit, was dispatched quickly as well as Henry shot him in the throat. Lyn and Henry had parachuted into a slave truck which took them right into the Yorktown Slave camp. So, they had the element of surprise. As Lyn hopped out of the truck, she saw that she stood in a shanty town. The homes were built in military grid lines but were built from torn and useless metal. It smelt of decay and gas as she looked around and saw the massive steel walls that surrounded the camp. Then, she saw a large steel brick of a tower that had a rounded set of floors atop the ten square built floors. It looked like an airport control tower, if it had gained some weight.
Now, her and Henry had to make their way there. Two slaves jumped from the truck with no collars around their necks. The others did not have collars either. The two men picked up the assault rifles the men dropped and formed behind Henry and Lyn.

"So, the plan. Run it by me again? And why can't I just teleport to the floor we need to get to?" Lyn stretched as she asked Henry about what was going on. "If I just had a few grenades I could simply sprint through all of this..."

Edited by Inflatablepants: 5/10/2017 9:46:21 PM"Lyn, we have to get to the control room in that tower." Henry said as he pointed up to it. "If you teleport and collapse, the surplus of guards in there could kill you while you are crippled. That being said? We're fighting our way there."
-
"One short teleport like that would be nothing. Give me a few grenades and I'll be fine. Anyone have any?" She looked over at the enslaved people and sighed. "I guess not..."
-
"Wait hold on..." Henry said as he pointed to the building. It was probably a mile away and he looked at her with a furrowed brow. "You can teleport inside there? Without collapsing?"
-
"Well, we'll get closer of course, but yeah! Easily! I may even scale the side of the building a little." Lyn now looked over at Henry. "The guards inside won't be too hard with the surprise I'll give them and you can distract some of the guards not up there by fighting down here."
-
"You sure you wanna split up? You don't know what you'll find in there." Henry asked Lyn with concern.
-
"Once we get to the wall I'll teleport in. Everything will be fine and even if I screw up you can still save everyone."
-
Edited by Inflatablepants: 5/11/2017 9:23:28 PMHenry thought about this for a moment before he looked to Lyn again. "....alright. Not sure I like the idea but it's the best we got. I'll see to clearing the area around the towers walls with these two and then I can have the rest move in and get the weapons." He told her as he turned to the west street which lead to the steel wall. "We get to the wall of the tower and you teleport into the control room. That's the plan."
-
"Even if they take me hostage or something you just keep going. Don't stop. Got it?" Lyn placed a hand on his shoulder.
-
"I hope it doesn't come to that, Lyn." Henry told her as he looked her in the eyes. "We need to get moving then. We only have so much time!"
-
"Lets go then." She began to walk towards the tower.
-
Henry walked beside her as the small force of militia made their way behind them. Suddenly, from one of the streets, Lyn spotted an Exo. He saw the group and immediately yelled. "CODE RED! INTRUDERS! SOUTH SIDE OF THE TOW-" Henry quickly fired off a shot and the bullet hit the man in the chest. The soldier returned fire and Lyn then saw probably a dozen other soldiers sprinting to their location.
-
"Get behind cover!" Lyn grabbed Henry by that arm and pulled him along as she got behind a building. "Already having a bad start."
-
"Well we are in an enemy camp!" Henry said as he returned fire from his position. He took down the exo he had shot at and one of the prisoners picked up his weapon and fired on incoming exo's. The exo's gunned down anyone they could, but a few of them were already being dispatched and looted. Lyn could see helicopters on the horizon making their way to the camps location.

Edited by Stitch: 5/11/2017 11:31:12 PM"We gotta keep moving! Come on!" Lyn sprinted towards another building that's closer to the tower.
-
[spoiler]past tense![/spoiler] Henry sprinted behind Lyn and took cover beside her. He fired his pistol at one of the exo's but him and Lyn were quickly suppressed by machine gun fire.
-
"If only we had back up. Aren't there any rebels nearby?!" Lyn asked Henry.
-
"I can see what I can do, but we don't have the forces to hit those walls without taking a big hit!" Henry told her as he fired at another exo who dropped to the ground.
-
"Even a mortar strike or something would be appreciated." Lyn made a spear in her hand and threw it over the cover towards the gunners.
-
One of the exo's smacked the spear out of the air and fired at Lyn. A Bullet but across her arm as the soldier sprayed at them. Suddenly the same soldier fell to the ground, dead. "I'll see what I can do!" Henry told her as he raised two finger to his ear.
-
The spear shattered on contact and green shards flew at incredible speeds, shredding any exos they hit where they had exposed flesh.
-
A small group of four soldiers stumbled back from the cutting of the spear. Gun shots now filled the atmosphere as the entire camp seemed to become a War zone. Slaves were being gunned down at random through the crossfire as the men and women who were able to arm themselves did what they could. "Tear gas drop in five!" Henry told Lyn as he knelt in front of Lyn and fired at another Exo.
-
"Tear gas? We have no masks!" Lyn threw another spear.
-
"But we do know there is tear gas coming!" Henry told her. "It's gunna drop right in front of the tower. You have to sprint through it so you can teleport through! That's all I can get you Lyn I'm sorry!" He apologized as he explained to her.
-
"I was hoping for back up in case I failed up there, but fine. Lets try and get closer, okay?" Lyn peaked over the cover.
