Cassie
Cassie slides between James and the Elite. "He's fine, back off please." She turns and looks at James. "Can you get us out of here James? We really need to get gone." Something about this didn't mesh right. Cardinal helping her, these elites. Too crowded, too confusing. She needed a retreat, someplace to redeploy from. Her first thought was Tommy's sanctum, but Legion had eliminated that as an option.
One of the twins’ looks over, “Oy, the lad is awake is he? You best keep your distance there, he got the No Return infection; you know what that can do to a bloke?”
The other twin shakes his head, “If don’t kill him, it scrambles the brainpan right good, it does,” he says making a crazy motion with his friend hand.
“Cardinal has us here to watch him to see if he show any funny sides,” the first twin says standing, “is he-”
There is the sound of an explosion, it is faint.
Both twins turn invisible instantly. The rhino woman grumbles, “You fight?” directing her question to Cassie.
James curls up into a fetal position, rocking himself, “This isn’t happening…” he repeats over and over.
The Calvary
Ryan leads the charge as the team tries to keep as best as they can, it turns out the portal was actually not that far from what looks to be a stone walled complex of homes, towers, and defensive positions. One of the towers is a smoking wreck, the flames visible in the night sky framing the attack that is already underway…
The structure is a rough square some several hundred feet on a side with four towers at each corner, there are three small homes/buildings in the interior with a more heavily fortified structure towards the center with vehicles and a well out front.
