The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

"It may just be best for me to stay here in the control room,' werner said.

Shelton held the rifle awkwardly. "Trust me, you don't want me to fire this thing. I'll take somebody's eye out."

Shelton heard what Werner said, and nodded. "I'm actually with Donitz on this one. This control room is fine for now, no need to make our injured travel any more than he has to. Though, just in case, we should fashion some sort of stretcher. One of those fiberglass tabletops in the staff room would work, if Werner could just hold on."

The radio cackled. "Sorry to eavesdrop," said the Cobalt commander, his voice emanating from Shelton's radio-flashlight, which was laying on the ground, "but you never turned the radio off from the Dragonstorm hostage event. We're on our way up; we'll pick up a table on the way."

(OOC: The powerout you're planning, Serris, could double as the reason our heroes have to make for auxiliary control. The current control room could be hit by the powerout.)

Kagetora looked back at them for a moment.
"You should go.  This might get hectic, and I don't want you to get..."
He was cut off by Murakami lunging, his blade stabbing Kagetora through the heart in a flash...

Hawkeye walked over to where Dr. Joe was sitting, gently placing a metallic wing on her shoulder.
"Are you...okay?  You seem tense.  Any way I can...help?"
He asked, hesitantly...

Neku looked up at Snow, putting a hand on hers.  
"Thanks, Snow. I'm really glad you're here with me..."
He said to her, looking deeply into her eyes...

Zachary's mouth fell open. "Shoot him!" He fumbled somewhat has he readied his weapon and aimed.

James raised his shotgun. "Drop your swords!" he shouted.

The Dhole also readied her rifle. "Get on the ground!" she shouted.

The Iguana guard added his weapon to the mix. "Someone go see if Kagetora is all right!"

"You volunteering?" asked Shelton, fumbling with Vic's rifle and dropping it.

"Don't worry about me!  Just go!"
Kagetora said, as the 'him' that had just been stabbed disappeared into a puff of smoke, and he reappeared behind Murakami, swords raised...

Zachary's mouth fell open in shock. "Okay gang, I think we should listen to the disappearing man. Let's roll! We'll meet by the magnetics lab just down the hallway."

The Dhole, the Iguana guard and James left.
 
"Shelton, I'll carry Werner." Zachary said.

"Don't worry I think I can walk without support,' werner said before falling on the floor after a few steps "Or maybe not,' werner added.

Shelton debated between grabbing the rifle or the flashlight, finally choosing the latter, which he tucked into his lab coat pocket. "C'mon, mate," Shelton said to Werner, heaving Werner's arm over his shoulder, and helping Zach lead him out of the room and down the hall.

"Guys! What about..." Dr. Kerzach began to say.

"Cram it ya ugly bird!" Montgomery hissed pushing the knife further into his neck.

"Uh, Monty?" asked Hicks, with a glance at the dueling ninjas. "I don't much feel like gettin' shish-kebab'edó"

"Then stay over here," snapped the Beagle. "There's plenty of room for us to remain safe, and once we kill the victor of their little skirmish, this control room, and therefore the base, will be under our thumb..."

"Kill them with what? Our bare hands? Kozlov and O'Neill could get away with that because they're so damn strong." Hicks shot back.

"The victor will be exhausted from the duel, and an easy kill," retorted Montgomery, spinning the knife. "But if you want to run off like a chicken and turn your back on our 15-year plan for Dragonstorm, then just do so!"

Vic quickly rehooked his kit to his belt and strapped the other over his shoulder, and then quickly picked his rifle back up towards where Dr. Kerzach called out.  He paused for a moment, and then moved his way towards a wall and a fallen concrete column and took cover away from the sword fighting, but still with the rubble pile with the scientists in view...

----------

Dr. Joe looked up and sighed.  "I never thought my job here was going to be this stressful..."

Snow looked back into Neku's eyes, and then lowered her head to rest on his shoulder.

"Wait, we forgot Dr. Kerzach!" James shouted. The group was running down the hallways.

"Should we go back to get him?" the Dhole asked. "I mean those 2 ninjas could kill him in their duel."

"Shelton what do you think?" Zachary asked. He seemed not to notice the weight of Werner.

"If it were me back there, I know I would want to be rescued," replied Shelton. "But let's only send people good with firearms. I'll stay here, watch over Werner, and debrief our friends in the cafeteria."

James looked around at the group. "I'll go. I am taking two more."

The Dhole stepped up. "I'll go."

Zachary stepped up. "Sorry, Shelton said people good with firearms."

The Dhole blushed. "Oh yeah, I remember saying that I've spent time at the shooting range but I'm not that good. Besides, didn't I see you and James doing some of that 'practical shooting' stuff at the local range?"

Zachary nodded. "Yep, it's as close to real-life combat as you can get."

The Iguana guard stepped up. "I'll go. Guard Shelton." he said to the Dhole.

The Dhole nodded and took a defensive position with her rifle at the ready.

"Shelton. We are prepared. And I have the urge to just simply shoot Murakami and just get the whole thing over with." James said.
