The Infested dropped dead as fast as literal rocks, as the unknown alien...feminine being proceeded to slice the Juggernaut in half using what seemingly looked like a [url=https://www.nexus-stats.com/img/items/Dakra%20Prime-min.png]unique Sword[/url], dressed in gold and white.
More Infested could be heard backing off for the time being, returning to the ruins of the nearby buildings...which left the alien to stare at the three, before looking at the Imperial shuttle as it drove off back toward the Imperial Sector.
The alien then stared at the three, walking over to them with her sword.
“Please tell me we didn’t just piss off a god damn alien. Well, two counting her.” Vel had told the two, nudging her head toward Tethys. “No offense.”

"...We need a guy to show up, you know," [i]Victoria would murmur, out of the blue, while the Force User would elegantly brush past the armored woman. Up close, Tethys was.. tall, at exactly six feet in height, yet still keeping a magnificently toned, thin body.[/i] [i]She would stop in front of the Frame, holding out her hand as if utilizing a peace symbol. She was declaring silently that she would not attack, if anything at all.[/i]
-
The Warframe looked...confused almost, until she realized what the symbol meant, and hugged the Jedi. “Yeah...we do.” Was Vel’s response...right before they got their answer, as the Warframe accidentally threw a Specter down, it appearing the form of a Grineer that seemed shorter than anyone there. It looked to the four women, giving the equivalent of a smile, whilst holding up what seemed to be two machine guns in it’s hand. “Clem.” Was all it said.
-
[i]As the two supernatural beings were having their moment, with Tethys merely accepting the hug and patting the Warframe on the back, Victoria would stare for a few moments before releasing a soft sigh.[/i] "...Odd. So.. what exactly is a Jedi?" "I'm no Jedi," [i]The Arkanian muttered.[/i]
-
"...Clem, GRAKATA!" Was all the strange Grineer had said, Velinnea looking at him at a bit of awkwardness as the Warframe let go of the Arkanian. "Does he always say that?" Vel asked, for which the Warframe nodded yes. "Clem!" Was the Grineer's response, waving his arms around with excitement as the gunship from before landed, the gunship itself empty, minus its pilot. "Sorry, ma'am; we had a...situation involving the Infestation. And lots of those giant ones." The clone told the group.
-
"...We gained two important assets, sir. Additionally, we gained some information on what the Imperials were doing down here.. and we know of what we're facing, outside of the Imperials." [i]Victoria sighed, before kneeling down upon the vicious Charger corpse, holding up it's dead body with a single hand.[/i] "What is this thing, anyhow?"
-
Said body was rotting quite quickly, as the five got on the gunship, it closing. The Tenno typed something into her menu, which popped up through her palm, before she went limb. What looked to be a humanoid girl walked up through the limp Warframe, staring at Victoria. “That is an Infested. It’s the most dangerous to where I came from. It murdered some of our kind; turned them into slaves for bigger hive minds.” The girl had told them. Velinnea fainted, clearly having enough alien bullshit happen in one day, much less a few hours.
-
"Your kind? What.. you're just a child, though. What are you?" [i]Victoria stared up with a simple confusion, before standing finally, staring down at the Tenno before studying the alien Warframe itself. The technology, the shape, the terrifying agility and form.. what was this thing, anyway?[/i]
-
“...It’ll take many years to explain...but in short, I’m a Tenno. I don’t remember much; just that two people...I think it was my mother and father...fighting one another in a place like this. My father had rescued me from my sleeping quarters on Lua; at least, that’s what the faint voice in my head tells me.” The Tenno explained, smiling almost, before looking toward the Warframe. “And That is my Warframe. While my own body could do a lot, I still need the Warframe; it provides me with ancient powers from beyond; and it allows me to do so much more stuff than this body!” The Tenno he told Victoria in excitement, the gunship being heard lifted and leaving off the Infested site. In the back, the being known as ‘Clem’ was staring at Velinnea. “Clem.” He said, still looking at The knocked-out Mandalorian.
-
[i]Victoria didn't initially respond to the child's quicker-than-expected explanation of the "Warframe" and what she truly was. Though she would kneel down and lift up the fainted Velinnea, holstering her up, with her head resting against the Sister of Battle's pauldron.[/i] "...What's your name then, kiddo? I should know the name of the young woman that saved our asses from.. these things." [i]Victoria looked back at the Infested bodies, briefs memories and flashbacks pf the horrid Tyranid infestations that she had burnt, blown, slashed, and literally tore her way through. Those were not the happier days of her career, not as if she had happy days at all, nor relatively calm days.[/i]
-
"...my mother and father never gave me a name. When I left to search for other of my kind, I remember there was something written on the walls and looked like me. It said 'Bariss' on it. So...that's what I called myself." She had told Victoria, looking out toward the roaming Infested around the sector. "I do remember my father's name....Tusuto, I think...my mother's, I can't seem to remember." Bariss had told Victoria. "They called her an Immortal...an Immortal Blood., I think." She had told her, as Clem helped Victoria with Velinnea. "Captain, anywhere else you want to go before we get back to base?" The pilot asked Victoria.
-
"Captain?" [i]Victoria looked a little stunned at her seemingly new title, though she would nod a little, accepting the seemingly new promotion. Perhaps Vel had put it into play when she was still knocked out.[/i] "...There's nowhere else, but.. Bariss, and.. ma'am." [i]She would turn then, towards Tethys and Bariss, as she nodded to them as equals.[/i] "I understand that the situation is.. terribly confusing. However, I would ask to seek-" "This war has no good endings. You know that, I hope?" [i]Tethys would interrupt, a silent glare studying Victoria. The Sister of Battle would keep silent, before snapping back.[/i] "And that's why it's war, genius. We win, we stay here, alive, and the enemy retreats or dies. We lose, we die. Common sense."

Bariss simply nodded to her, as the Grineer just said “GRAKATA! GRAKATA!”, raising its twin weapons, seemingly compact one-handed LMGs. It shook it’s head yes, and seemingly also wanted to join.
